Law school applications fall sharply

race from town to town.

“It’s a traveling circus,” Mansker said.

Though Mansker has not yet spoken with the city of Lawrence, he said he was cautiously optimistic about the opportunity.

Megan Gilliland, communications manager for the city, said the event would have to go before the City Commission before it could be approved.

Mansker said he hoped to make a kayak race from Manhattan to Lawrence a yearly occurrence in late May, tapping into the rivalry between the two cities.

As Kansas University’s School of Law deals with a national slump in the legal job market, admission applications to the school have fallen sharply.

And KU students and recent graduates are expanding their job searches.

This year, the school received about 850 applications, which is down from about 1,100 the year before, a nearly 23 percent drop.

“This trend of double-digit drops in applications, nearly every school in the country is experiencing this,” said Stephen Mazza, dean of KU’s law school.

KU’s drop-off is still well above the national average, which was around 12 percent to 13 percent in February, but has probably increased since then, Mazza said.

“What has happened is the game has gotten much more competitive for getting applications and retaining students,” he said.

KU will be stepping up its ow n ga m e . A f te r t h e l aw school’s director of admissions KANSAS left for a new job at the Univer- UNIVERSITY sity of Connecticut, KU will be adding not just a new director, but also two new positions — an assistant director and a seasonal recruiter — in the admissions office, Mazza said.

Sparkle Ellison, who will be a third-year law student this fall, said she’s not as concerned about landing a job after her schooling because she’s looking to enter a specialized field. She said she’s not surprised to see the drop-off in applications this year.

“With the job market, it’s easier to keep whatever job you have than go back to law school,” she said.

Ellison said she has advanced degrees in science, including a chemistry doctorate, and is considering patent law. She keeps up on the market in her field by talking with professors, reading patentspecific blogs and by word of mouth.

Todd Rogers, assistant law dean for career services at KU, said he’s seen more students applying for positions that prefer a law degree, rather than those that require bar passage.

KU reported 62 percent of 2009 law graduates whose employment status was known were working in a bar-required position nine months after graduation. That same statistic fell to 59 percent for the class of 2010.

Meanwhile, 9.2 percent of that same pool of students were working in J.D. preferred jobs in 2009, rising to 10.7 percent in 2010.

Those jobs often pay similar to a mid-size law firm, said Rogers, who wrote a blog post for the law school on the topic. Examples of institutions offering “J.D. preferred” jobs that 2010 KU law graduates accepted include NCAA member institutions, federal agencies and the World Bank.

“People are much more open to it now, and I think that’s mostly out of necessity,” Rogers said.

New regulations expected to be drafted as a result of a new environmental chapter of Horizon 2020 approved Tuesday by city commissioners include codes would limit what type of development could occur near streams.

City split on environmental code “The sky is not falling here,” Mayor Aron Cromwell told the crowd. “This isn’t going to be the end of business in Lawrence, Kansas.”

But the new chapter sparked multiple concerns from members of the Chamber of Commerce, the Lawrence Board of Realtors, the Lawrence-Douglas County Home Builders Association and several area farmers.

The stage is set for new environmental regulations in Lawrence and Douglas County.

City commissioners on a 3-2 vote approved the Environmental Chapter of Horizon 2020 despite a deeply divided crowd that filled City Hall on Tuesday.

“This chapter is perilously close to telling us what plants we have to plant,” said Mary Ross, who is part of a farming family in the Kansas River Valley north of Lawrence. “There are some real property rights issues here, and the agriculture community was left out of the planning process of this chapter.”

But city commissioners sought to calm fears that the

chapter would create a multitude of new environmental regulations that would be stricter than existing federal and state laws. In fact, they said, the chapter doesn’t create any new regulations but rather lays out the specific areas where new regulations should be drafted in the future. All of those new regulations will Please see CITY, page 2A

current standing of this year’s race. High river levels from rain have made the possibility of having the annual event on the Missouri River a no-go.

Instead, the race, or at least a version of it, could be held on the Kansas River. Mansker said race organizers are considering three options for keeping currently registered racers happy. The first involves what Mansker said would probably be a 100-mile

race on the Kansas River. The race would begin in Manhattan and either pass through or end in Lawrence. Mansker said the event, tentatively named the Kawrnivore 100, would take place this summer to give entrants who have already taken the time off for the usual Missouri event something to do during that time.

The second option, according

to Mansker, would be to postpone the Missouri River race until early to mid-August, when the river is expected be back below flood levels.

The third option is to possibly do both events during the next few months. The race has drawn much positive attention from towns along the Missouri River and Mansker said he had already received similar feedback from several towns along the Kaw. Mansker said he planned to drive portions of the proposed course before any official race plans could be confirmed. Traffic has been the biggest hurdle to clear during past events, with about 500 cars following the

Rumblings from earthquake near St. Louis felt in Lawrence

By George Diepenbrock gdiepenbrock@ljworld.com

At 3:10 a.m. Tuesday, Rachelle Ziesenis was minding her own business in the middle of her shift as a registered nurse on the fourth floor of Lawrence Memorial Hospital, 325 Maine.

Then she felt something odd.

“It felt like the building had swayed a little bit. It was just kind of a quick swaying motion,” Ziesenis said. “And my first thought was

an earthquake. Then I thought that’s ridiculous.”

But according to the U.S. Geological Survey, Ziesenis likely felt the effects of a 4.2-magnitude earthquake at that time centered about 50 miles southwest of St. Louis. The epicenter is more than 250 miles from Lawrence, and according to the USGS online data for the earthquake, people reported feeling the temblor in Shawnee, Leavenworth, Overland Park, Pittsburg and Wichita.

Ziesenis said she only felt the

She called downstairs to security guards on the ground level, who said they didn’t notice anything. A doctor checked his Twitter feed and found immediate reports of the Missouri earthquake.

tors have not yet publicly backed Six, although his nomination could not have gotten this far had they actively opposed it.

Six Andrea Candrian, the spokeswoman for Sen. Pat Roberts, said in an email Tuesday that the senator is still reviewing information on Six’s nomination and continues to meet with groups and hear from Kansas residents about it.

Sen. Jerry Moran’s office did

not immediately respond Tuesday to a similar query.

The anti-abortion group Operation Rescue has opposed Six’s nomination, though other opposition hasn’t been apparent. Six has been praised by attorneys who cite his integrity and legal abilities.

He is a former state judge who began his law career nearly two decades ago as a clerk at the Denver-based federal appeals court.

He left office in January after losing his attorney general’s seat as part of a national wave of Republican election victories.

SLT FATALITY

Report: Driver unaware metal had fallen

1 | LIBYA

NATO unleashes blistering airstrikes Moammar Gadhafi stood defiant Tuesday in the face of the heaviest and most punishing NATO airstrikes yet — at least 40 thunderous daylight attacks that sent plumes of smoke billowing above the Libyan leader’s central Tripoli compound.

In late afternoon and as the strikes continued, Libyan state television broadcast an audio address from Gadhafi, who denounced NATO and the rebels challenging his rule. He vowed never to surrender.

“We will not kneel!” he shouted.

2 | HAITI

At least 23 killed in floods, mudslides Heavy rain hammered southern Haiti for a seventh straight day Tuesday, triggering floods and mudslides and causing houses and shanties in the capital to collapse. The official death toll was 23 but could rise as remnants of the storm lingered.

Haitian authorities listed six people as missing.

Runoff from the rain sent rivers surging and flooded many homes as people scrambled to their rooftops. The slow-moving storm system also toppled trees and debris blocked streets throughout the capital.

At least 23 people were killed and more than a dozen injured, said Edgar Joseph, a spokesman for Haiti’s Civil Protection Department. Most of the deaths were in Port-au-Prince and they included two who died over the weekend, he said.

Obama toasts Merkel at state dinner President Barack Obama toasted German Chancellor Angela Merkel at a Rose Garden dinner as an extraordinary leader. And he used Tuesday’s dinner to present Merkel with the Presidential Medal of Freedom.

Obama said he still remembers the rally he held in Berlin as a presidential candidate, which drew adoring throngs. And so he said he’d decided to reciprocate with what he called “a little dinner in our Rose Garden.”

After the citation was read aloud, Obama told the 200-plus dinner guests to go ahead and applaud. But then Obama realized he’d forgotten something and reminded himself that “I’ve got to do the toast.” And he did just that.

Dever and Carter also said they were underwhelmed by information presented by Downtown Lawrence Inc. that recommended against the street closure. Both Carter and Dever noted that a representative with Big Brothers Big Sisters received signatures of support for the event from 22 of the 25 downtown businesses that it approached.

The driver of a pickup truck hauling scrap metal told a Douglas County Sheriff’s detective that he didn’t know anything had fallen from his trailer last week or that it had struck and killed a woman on the South Lawrence Trafficway west of Lawrence.

Cindy Burnett, 47, Lyndon, died after she was struck by a piece of metal that pierced the windshield of the vehicle she was riding in with her husband, Jeff Burnett, about noon May 31 just north of the Kansas Highway 10 bridge over Clinton Parkway.

Immediately after the accident, deputies asked for the public’s help and were searching for the driver of the pickup truck hauling the trailer. The sheriff’s office through an accident report provided to the Journal-World Tuesday identified the driver of the other vehicle as 20-year-old Nicholas Rockhold of Baldwin City.

The report also includes some new details about accident: ● The blue pickup truck — owned by Jayhawk Excavating of rural Baldwin City, according to the report — Rockhold was driving was headed west. He later turned onto U.S. Highway 40 and eventually took several items

City Commission OKs closing part of Mass. St. for car show

By Chad Lawhorn clawhorn@ljworld.com

It will be a hot rod show and probably the subject of hot debate.

City commissioners on Tuesday night agreed to close down the portion of Massachusetts Street that runs through South Park on Oct. 8 for the Rev it Up! Hot Rod Hullaballoo, which will serve as a fundraiser for the Big Brothers Big Sisters program.

Commissioners approved the closing on a 3-2 vote despite Downtown Lawrence Inc. formally objecting to the plan, citing concerns that closing the street on a Saturday would make it difficult for shoppers to get downtown.

Big fruit and vegetable producers Spain, Italy and France angrily demanded compensation for farmers who have been blindsided by huge losses in the E. coli outbreak, forcing the EU farm chief to increase his offer of aid.

Farm Commissioner Dacian Ciolos at first offered $219 million to the struggling farmers, who have tons of unwanted cucumbers and tomatoes rotting in fields and warehouses as Europeans shun vegetables, fearing they are contaminated with a deadly strain of the E. coli bacteria.

As part of this year’s budget, the department was authorized to replace eight patrol vehicles with new ones. Khatib said the cars cost about $21,000 apiece and about the same amount to equip them.

The older cars in the patrol fleet won’t get the new insignia until they are replaced with new cars in the future, so it will take several years to completely switch to the new design, Sarna said.

Cicada ice cream sales halted in Missouri COLUMBIA, MO. (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Public health officials have suggested a shop in the college town of Columbia cool it with a cicada-flavored ice cream that customers apparently canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get enough of during the insectâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s once-every-13-years invasion.

Sparkyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Homemade Ice Cream contacted the health department after it sold out of its only batch of the insectfilled snack within hours of its June 1 debut. Employees collected the bountiful bugs in their backyards and removed most of the dead cicadasâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; wings but saved some for textureâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sake.

The cicadas were fully cooked by boiling, then covered in brown sugar and milk chocolate. The base ice cream is a brown sugar and butter flavor.

The store was going to make another batch for the weekend, but a sign on the

â&#x20AC;&#x153;

The food code doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t directly address cicadas.

We advised against it.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Gerry Worley, environmental health manager for the the City of Columbia/Boone County Department of Public Health and Human Services door told customers it wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be back until 2024. Seems like the City of Columbia /Boone County Department of Public Health and Human Services couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t find the proper cooking temperature guidelines next to its listings for beef, chicken, fish and pork. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The food code doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t directly address cicadas,â&#x20AC;? environmental health manager Gerry Worley said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We advised against it.â&#x20AC;?

The first batch of the ice cream was so popular store

employees didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t even have a chance to put the product in a display case before eager customers scooped it up the night before its official onsale date. Customers hoping for a crunchy taste â&#x20AC;&#x153;bombardedâ&#x20AC;? the store the next morning, only to be disappointed, said employee Christian Losciale, who helped create the concoction.

Sparkyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s owner Scott Southwick didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t expect the brisk sales. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We thought weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d make a small batch, and it would last forever,â&#x20AC;? he said.

Losciale compared the insectâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s flavor to a peanut.

One customer with no plans to try the seasonal ice cream was Joan Masters, who was at Sparkyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s with her 5-year-old son Jack before the flavorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s brisk but brief unveiling. â&#x20AC;&#x153;One (cicada) landed on me at lunch, and I just screamed,â&#x20AC;? she said.

Wichita exterminators seeing more bedbugs W I C H I T A ( A P ) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Wichita pest-control companies say eradicating bedbugs is still just a small part of their businesses, but that could change as reports of the tiny bloodsuckers in the city are on the rise.

Cindy Betts, office manager for Betts Pest Control, said her company is expecting more calls about the nocturnal parasites as students come home from college and families return from vacation. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve seen more bedbugs in the last year than weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve seen in the other 38 years put together,â&#x20AC;? she said.

The insects get into beds, clothes, couches, chairs and all kinds of other hiding places waiting for nightfall when they feast on slumbering humans. Even if nobody is around, bedbugs can live a year without eating.

The Wichita Eagle reported that a study sponsored by the National Pest Management Association concluded that 95 percent of U.S. pest management companies said they had encountered a bedbug infestation in the past year.

Betts said treating bedbugs isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t a big part of her business yet, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the fastest-growing segment. She said at present roughly half of the companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s work is termite control, and the rest is mainly devoted to killing spiders and insects, including bedbugs.

Bill Hawks Jr., president of Hawks Interstate PestMasters, said even though Wichita is seeing more bedbugs, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not as bad as states on both coasts are experiencing. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are not seeing anywhere near the activity,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Where you have to be alert is when somebody returns from mission work, or coming back from seeing shows in New York or from Las Vegas.â&#x20AC;?

Hawks said bedbugs are hard to eradicate once theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve taken hold in homes or offices. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re hard to find and any that arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t killed will cause a reinfestation, so it takes a crew of two or three people between an hour and four hours to treat a house, he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 100 percent or nothing, because whatever you leave comes back,â&#x20AC;? he said.

Homeowners and hotel owners who find bedbugs have to act quickly, once bedbugs have turned up, or they will quickly spread, both Betts and Hawks said.

Betts said she has treated some hotels, but most hotels that contact her are trying to find out the best way to get rid of the insects. She thinks that means hotels will have staff members, rather than pest-control professionals, will try to eradicate the bugs. â&#x20AC;&#x153;That worries me,â&#x20AC;? she said.

Input on plan to clean up arsenic pollution sought

By Christine Metz cmetz@ljworld.com

Kansas Department of Health and Environment believes it has found a $2.7 million solution to clean up the arsenic-contaminated groundwater that has plagued a North Lawrence phosphorous plant for years.

KDHE is seeking public comment on FMC Corp.’s plan to keep high concentrations of arsenic from draining toward the Kansas River.

A cancer-causing agent, arsenic is a byproduct of commercial phosphate. In the 1950s and 1960s, FMC dumped its industrial wastewater, which contained arsenic, into an unlined, uncovered lagoon.

In the 1970s, the sludge was twice removed from the pond and the lagoon was covered.

Years later, it was discovered that along with leaking into nearby groundwater, elevated levels of arsenic were heading toward the Kaw.

In the mid-1990s, the company paid for nearby landowners to connect to the city’s water system. Around that time, the company also began working with the KDHE to create a plan to better contain the arsenic.

Since then, the plant has traded hands several times and is now owned by Israel Chemicals Ltd. FMC remains responsible for the cleanup.

Samples from this winter show that concentration levels at the site of the lagoon remain high. In fact, they are 300 times higher than the level federal regulations consider safe for drinking water.

But that doesn’t mean the arsenic contamination threatens Lawrence’s drinking water. The city pulls water from the Kansas River upstream from the plant and private wells on nearby properties routinely test negative for elevated levels of arsenic.

In 2000, FMC agreed to a consent order with KDHE that

SUBMIT YOUR OPINION Public comment on the FMC’s proposal to clean up arsenic contamination can be submitted in writing to Natalie Burris, Environmental Scientist, KDHE Bureau of Environmental Remediation, 1000 SW Jackson St., Suite 410, Topeka, KS 66612-1367. Comments will be accepted until July 6. An outline of the proposal can be found at the KDHE’s website, kdheks.gov, or at the Lawrence Public Library, 707 Vt. required the company to evaluate alternatives to clean up the site and then implement one of those alternatives.

Over the past decade, the company has tried to find a plan that worked. The major obstacle was using a chemical that was compatible with the high levels of orthophosphorus also found in the groundwater.

“It makes the geochemistry a little more challenging,” said Natalie Burris, a KDHE environmental scientist and the site’s project manager.

In previous treatments, the chemicals FMC used to stabi-

lize the arsenic were being saturated by the orthophosphorus.

But FMC and KDHE believe they’ve found a solution that will work.

The company wants to create conditions on the contamination site so naturally occurring bacteria can thrive.

The hope is that the microbes will do the same thing that the chemicals were intended to do: Fix the arsenic into place so it won’t leak into the groundwater.

The company also would reinforce the cap that covers the lagoon and continue to monitor arsenic levels. The future use of the land also would be restricted to ensure homes or drinking wells are never built on the property.

The KDHE estimated the treatment would cost FMC about $2.7 million.

“This does seem to have promise,” KDHE site remediation unit chief E. Jean Underwood said of the solution. She also noted “it’s not a quick fix.”

Lawrence Habitat ReStore is seeking donations of lumber to help it meet anticipated needs from victims of last month’s tornado in Reading.

The ReStore, 708 Conn., is partnering with Emporia Salvation Army, which is offering tornado victims vouchers valued at $50 to $150 to help repair storm damage. The vouchers may be used at the ReStore.

ReStore officials say the biggest need in Reading is lumber, and that’s why officials are seeking such donations — particularly plywood and 2x4s.

Donations are accepted from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Fridays, and from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Thursdays.

County Commission to mull rezoning requests Douglas County commissioners will consider several rezoning requests at their meetings this afternoon and evening.

from his trailer to a recycling center in Topeka. Initially sheriff ’s investigators believed the metal fell from a truck that was headed east on the SLT, or the opposite direction of Burnett’s Dodge pickup truck. ● Sheriff ’s Detective Jay Armbrister wrote in his report Rockhold said all items on his trailer were chained down and that he stopped two separate times to make sure the load hadn’t shifted and the chains securing it had not loosened.

“When we described the area in which this crash occurred, Rockhold thought it might have been possible that an item could have come out of a container when he hit the bumps where the pavement meets the bridge on K-

amount of land designated for the business project was not used and about 32 acres included in the request would return the land to its earlier land use specifications.

Commissioners will also consider rezoning about six acres of land located near the 700 block of Highway 40 from agricultural use to general business. Some residents in the area are opposed to the rezoning, citing increased traffic and the condition of existing commercial property as reasons for concern.

The commission is also expected to approve the purchase of new radios for the Douglas County Sheriff’s Department, an acquisition that will cost approximately $96,000. The funds for the new equipment and programming have already been set aside in the department’s budget and the upgrades are part of a federal mandate requiring the systems to move from analog to digital.

County commission meetings will be at 4 p.m. and 6:35 p.m. today at the Douglas County Courthouse, 111 E. 11th St.

Fund set up for McLouth student A fund has been established for the family of Justin Johnston, a McLouth High School student who was the victim of a shooting last Thursday during a Spanish Club trip to Costa Rica.

An account, the Johnston

Family Fund, has been established at the Bank of McLouth.

Donations can be sent to the bank, 117 N. Union St., McLouth, KS 66054, (913) 796-6133; or to McLouth High School, 217 Summit St., McLouth, KS 66054, (913) 796-6122.

Clerk arrested after hockey stick attack A 37-year-old convenience store clerk spent the night in the penalty box after an offduty police officer blew the whistle on his shattering of a window with a hockey stick following a dispute about a woman.

Lawrence police arrested the clerk, who was booked early Tuesday evening into the Douglas County jail on suspicion of aggravated assault, a felony, and misdemeanor criminal damage to property. He was being held without bail, pending a first appearance Wednesday.

Here’s what happened, according to Sgt. Trent McKinley of the Lawrence Police Department: Shortly after 4 p.m. Tuesday, the clerk at the service station at 955 E. 23rd St. got into an argument — regarding a woman — with a man inside the store. The man threw a couple of small plastic bottles of Coke at the clerk, then left.

The clerk then came outside waving a hockey stick — “apparently very upset,” McKinley said — and started hitting the driver’s side win-

chusetts Street, voted against the street closure.

“Unless these events really, really work and bring in a lot of people, it is hard to capture the amount of money these businesses lose by having the street closed on a Saturday,” said Amyx, who owns a barber shop.

Both Amyx and Schumm — and Downtown Lawrence Inc. — said they would be

more supportive of the request if the event were for a Sunday. But Stephen Chronister, an organizer of the event, said they feared moving the event to a Sunday would greatly reduce the number of car owners who would participate.

10 over the top of Clinton Parkway,” Armbrister wrote.

“He said that there are three ‘really bad bumps’ in that area.” ● The detective also said Rockhold became emotional when off icers told him a piece of scrap metal had struck and killed the passenger of a vehicle following him. ● Investigators determined another westbound car was traveling between the truck Rockhold was driving and Burnett’s pickup truck at the time of the accident. A passenger in the middle vehicle, Karen Mattox of Topeka, told investigators she watched an object come out of the trailer as the truck hit a bump going over the bridge over Clinton Parkway. ● She said the object apparently fell into the eastbound lane and struck a small maroon eastbound car, which sheriff ’s officials have not located, according to the

report. The object flew over the top of the Mattox’s car, and her husband, John Mattox, said he then looked into his rearview mirror and saw a white pickup truck — determined to be the Burnetts’ truck — pull over on the side of the road. ● Sheriff’s Sgt. Lyle Hagenbuch described the metal object found in the cab of Burnett’s pickup truck as a tooth from the bucket of a front-end loader used to dig at construction sites.

Sgt. Steve Lewis, a sheriff’s spokesman, said Tuesday no arrests had been made and no citations had been issued in connection with the accident. Lewis said information from the investigation would likely be forwarded to the district attorney’s office to determine if any charges might be filed.

dow of the other man’s van.

The window shattered, the hockey stick broke, and the clerk went back inside to get a stepladder.

“One weapon doesn’t work, so he goes inside to get another weapon,” McKinley said.

The clerk hit the van again, breaking the driver’s side mirror, before the driver left.

An off-duty police officer saw the whole thing and called in some of his on-duty colleagues. Turns out the confrontation “ensued about a relationship, over a female,” McKinley said.

Supreme Court rules in 2 Kobach cases

By Scott Rothschild srothschild@ljworld.com

TOPEKA — Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach’s illegal immigration cases continue to make their way through the nation’s judicial system.

This week, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in two cases that involved Kobach’s work as an attorney.

The court refused to review a California Supreme Court ruling that upheld a state law giving California high school graduates reduced in-state tuition at state schools, regardless of their immigration status. The court did not give a reason for its action.

Kobach, a Republican, was the lead attorney for the

plaintiffs suing to have the law overturned.

Eleven states, including Kansas, grant similar benefits to illegal Kobach immigrants.

The others are Illinois, Maryland, Nebraska, New Mexico, New York, Oklahoma, Texas, Utah, Washington and Wisconsin.

Kobach said Tuesday the fact that the U.S. Supreme Court refused to consider the case did not mean that it supports the California law.

He said the court may be waiting for more lower court rulings on similar laws in

other states before it takes up the matter.

Kobach is leading a similar lawsuit in Nebraska.

In another case Monday, the high court vacated an appellate court decision that declared a Hazleton, Penn., illegal immigration ordinance unconstitutional. The court sent the case back to the lower court for reconsideration.

“That was a big victory for the proponents of illegal immigration enforcement,” Kobach said.

Opponents of the Hazleton ordinance said the court’s decision doesn’t mean the lower court will automatically reverse its earlier ruling.

Among other things, the Hazleton ordinance requires

businesses to use the federal E-Verify database to see if a worker is legally in the United States. Last month, the Supreme Court upheld a provision in an Arizona law that did the same thing.

Kobach has represented the city of Hazleton and state of Arizona in these cases. He is also representing the city of Fremont, Neb., in a legal challenge of anti-illegal immigration ordinance that he helped craft.

During his successful campaign for secretary of state, Kobach said he would work full time in the position and handle his immigration work on his own time.

Marlesa Roney, Kansas University’s vice provost of student success, will resign her position to take a new job as a professor of higher education in KU’s School of Education.

She will stay on as vice provost until a search for her replacement is complete.

In an email to faculty and Roney staff, KU Provost Jeff Vitter praised Roney’s accomplishments as vice provost.

“While we’re thrilled for Marlesa to pursue this new opportunity, we’ll certainly miss her leadership within Student Success,” Vitter wrote.

Roney became the university’s first vice provost for student success in 2003 and helped bring together new services under the office’s umbrella, Vitter wrote.

“From new student orientation to registering for classes, academic advising and the writing center, there’s no question that the university — and especially our students — have benef ited immeasurably from Marlesa’s expertise and enthusiasm,” he wrote.

Further details on the process of a search for a new vice provost for student success will be announced as they become available.

Roney, who teaches one education course a year in her current job, said she had always envisioned her ending her career as a teacher.

After spotting an opening in the department of educational leadership and policy studies, Roney said she began discussing the opportunity with the school.

She will work as a professor of the practice, which is a full academic year, nontenure track position that is research-supported but doesn’t require research.

“It’s a really exciting opportunity to continue to work at a university I love,” she said.

Roney became vice provost for student success in 2003 following a three-year tenure as vice president for student affairs at the University of Akron and a 19-year career at Purdue University, where she received her doctorate in student personnel administration.

Rep. Weiner gets no sympathy from Dems

By David Espo Associated Press Writer

W A S H I N G T O N — Fellow Democrats pointedly refused to defend Rep. Anthony Weiner on Tuesday, telegraphing an unmistakable eagerness for him to resign after he admitted sending a lewd photo of himself to a woman via Twitter and lying about it.

Republicans swiftly sought political profit from the New York Democrat’s predicament, which threatened to deepen when conservative blogger Andrew Breitbart said he had a sexually explicit photo of the 46-year-old congressman.

His political career in extreme jeopardy, Weiner had no public appearances.

His spokesman did not respond to repeated requests for comment.

On Monday, after days of denials, the New York lawmaker admitted he had engaged in “several inappropriate conversations conducted over Twitter, Facebook, email and occasionally on the phone with women I had met online.”

Alternately apologetic and defiant, he said he neither met nor had physical relationships with any of them, and added, “I am not resigning.”

In fact, there is little that party leaders can do to force an errant lawmaker to quit,

although House Republicans have moved decisively in the past year to purge their ranks of two men who wound up in embarrassing situations.

Most Democrats maintained an uncomfortable silence about Weiner’s future, part of what several senior congressional off icials described as a hope that over a few days, Weiner would reconsider his refusal to resign. If not, several noted pointedly, his district might be eliminated when lines are adjusted before the 2012 elections to account for a population shift that will cost New York two House seats.

But Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid broke the silence.

“I wish there were some way that I can defend him, but I can’t,” the Nevada Democrat told reporters. Asked what he would do if Weiner called for advice, he replied he would tell him “call somebody else.”

Republicans sought political gain.

“Congressman Weiner’s actions and deception are unacceptable and he should resign,” GOP chairman Reince Priebus said in a written statement.

“We do not need an investigation to know he lied and acted inappropriately, we need a resignation,” he said, referring to a request from House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi for the House ethics committee to investigate the case.

Debit card fee debate hits Senate

By Alan Fram Associated Press Writer

WASHINGTON — In a heavily lobbied fight pitting financial institutions against merchants, supporters of the nation’s banks pushed Tuesday toward a Senate vote aimed at blocking a government plan to cap the fees that stores must pay banks whenever a customer swipes a debit card.

Both sides claimed to represent consumers’ interests in the high-stakes battle over the $16 billion yearly that the Federal Reserve says stores give banks in those fees. Merchants say the fees force them to charge higher prices and thwart their efforts to grow and add jobs. Banks say the fees are too low because they don’t consider all of their costs in administering debit card programs, and say they’d have to raise other charges — such as for checking accounts — if the swipe fees are reduced.

A showdown vote was set for today. If successful, the provision would block a Fed proposal that would cap the socalled interchange fees at 12 cents per swipe. That’s down from the current average of 44 cents, the result of fees that average between 1 percent and 2 percent per transaction.

Last year’s financial overhaul legislation ordered the Fed to issue a proposal and for a final rule to take effect on July 21. The proposal debated by the Senate would delay the regulations for a year and

— Sen. Richard Durbin of Illinois, the Senate’s No. 2 Democratic leader order the Fed and three other federal agencies to study whether the proposal is fair — and rewrite it if at least two agencies decide it is not.

With merchants and bankers important constituencies and contributors to both Democrats and Republicans, lawmakers’ views on the effort crossed party lines. Sen. Jon Tester, DMont., a first-term lawmaker facing re-election in a GOPleaning state next year, was a leader of the effort to block the cap on fees, while Sen. Richard Durbin of Illinois, the Senate’s No. 2 Democratic leader, was its leading foe.

Durbin, author of the provision in last year’s law that paved the way for the Fed’s plan, said the fight offered senators a clear choice.

“They’re either going to be on the side of the banks and credit card companies, or be on the side of consumers and businesses across the America to give them a fighting chance,” Durbin said.

Consumer borrowing rose by nearly $7.2 billion, fueled by greater demand for school and auto loans, the Federal Reserve said Tuesday. A category that measures credit card use fell for the second time in three months. It has risen only twice since August 2008, the height of the financial crisis.

The 3.1 percent overall increase pushed consumer borrowing to a seasonally adjusted annual level of $2.43 trillion, just above the nearly four-year low of $2.39 trillion hit in September.

challenges to both the economic recovery and his own re-election prospects. Just as the field of Republican challengers begins to take shape, a Washington Post-ABC News survey found that public disapproval of Obama’s handling of the economy has reached a record high, 59 percent.

The poll found that Obama and former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney are tied among all Americans in a hypothetical race for president. It gave Romney a slight edge, less than the margin of error, among registered voters.

Seventeen months before the election, unemployment is 9.1 percent. When Obama took office, it was 7.8 percent. Most economists think the rate will be above 8 percent at election time next year. Since World War II, no president has been re-elected with unemployment higher than 7.2 percent.

The day brought the latest in a stream of downbeat economic news, a government report that said businesses advertised fewer job openings in April than in March.

There were 4.6 unemployed people, on average, for each available job in April. In a healthy economy, the ratio is more like 2-to-1.

Even if all the open positions were filled, 10.7 million people would still be unemployed. That compares with 7.7 million who were unemployed when the recession began in December 2007. The recession ended in June 2009.

Obama’s early Republican presidential challengers have seized on the economy to try to take advantage. One of them, former Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty, accused Obama on Tuesday of being satisfied with a second-rate economy “produced by his third-rate policies.”

The former Minnesota governor proposed cutting taxes on business by more than half and simplifying the tax code to just three tiers, with a top

Common sense Changes that have been made to the state’s 5-year-old concealed carry law deserve a second look.

T

he elimination of certain requirements to obtain or renew a license to carry a concealed firearm in Kansas simply defies common sense.

When the state’s concealed carry law was passed in 2006, many Kansans had concerns about its impact. Those concerns have only been heightened by various changes that have taken place in the law since it went into effect. The original law, for instance, banned concealed firearms from bars, schools, churches and libraries. A change in the law allows concealed firearms in those places unless a “no guns” sign is posted. Another change removed the requirement that concealed carry license holders take a Breathalyzer test if a law enforcement officer had reason to suspect the person was intoxicated.

It also has come to light that most of the provisions that ensure a person is physically able to handle a firearm have been eliminated. The state no longer can deny a license to applicants based on their physical condition and, once a license is issued, it can be renewed without having a vision or shooting accuracy test. There is no provision to address declines in physical abilities that accompany the natural aging process.

That’s fine, according to one legislator who spoke to the Journal-World. “I think it should be up to the individual,” said Rep. Richard Carlson of St. Marys. “If they are a law-abiding citizen, then I think it should be self-determination of whether or not they are capable of it.”

A comparison with the state’s drivers license laws seems apt. We would like to think that every aging driver in the state would have the sense to know when to quit driving. However, Kansas doesn’t leave that to chance. Drivers under 65 must pass an eye exam every six years to renew their licenses.

Those over 65 must pass an exam every four years.

Kansas has that law because people who can’t see or have obvious physical disabilities are a danger not only to themselves but to everyone else with whom they share the road. Is it not obvious that the same principle applies to someone who legally carries a concealed firearm into a public place? Even if that weapon is used legitimately as protection from someone posing an imminent threat, the chances that innocent bystanders will be hurt expands greatly if the person holding the gun has a visual or physical impairment.

Although all of these changes went into effect last year, there was little or no effort to undo any of the provisions in the 2011 legislative session. Maybe legislators didn’t want to appear anti-concealed carry, but, as we noted at the outset, some of these provisions are anti-common sense. They certainly deserve a second look by state lawmakers.

U.S. withdrawal should proceed slowly President Obama has pledged to start withdrawing U.S. troops from Afghanistan next month, with a goal of pulling all combat troops out by the end of 2014.

He hasn’t yet decided how many troops to pull this year. But since the killing of Osama bin Laden, domestic pressures have grown for him to front-load the drawdown.

If the point was to squash alQaida, people ask, why are we keeping thousands of troops in Afghanistan? After all, bin Laden was found in Pakistan. So was top al-Qaida military leader Ilyas Kashmiri, reportedly killed by a drone strike on Friday.

Having just returned from two weeks in Afghanistan and Pakistan, where I talked to U.S., Afghan and Pakistani leaders, I’ve come to a different conclusion: The drawdown should proceed slowly, at least for this year.

The situation in AfPak is far more perilous than is widely understood, but for reasons Obama has failed to explain clearly. The risk is not just that Afghanistan could implode, but that nuclear-armed Pakistan could do likewise.

As we saw last month — when militants made an unprecedented attack from Afghanistan into Pakistan — a failed Afghan state could become a haven for Pakistani jihadis who seek to destroy the weak Pakistani state and gain access to its nukes.

The U.S. strategy I sympathize with those who ask what is to be achieved by staying longer in Afghanistan. As the Afghan fighting season begins, and Taliban suicide bombs explode, it’s hard to see signs of progress, especially in a country whose government is rampantly corrupt.

So let me lay out the U.S. mili-

working with Afghan army and police.

The goal is to thin out U.S. forces very slowly in Helmand and Kandahar, after the current fighting season ends, as Afghan security forces become more capable. That capacity is being bolstered by additional training in literacy and in leadership trubin@phillynews.com skills. Meantime, U.S. special forces carry out night raids targeting Taliban leaders.

Pakistan still weak But the biggest and most urgent reason to keep the drawdown limited, at least for this year, lies in Pakistan.

Pakistan’s weak civilian government is in disarray, and its military is inf iltrated by Islamists. The Pakistani army is having deep trouble fighting its own jihadis. It insists it didn’t know of bin Laden’s presence, which, if true, indicates deep failures in its intelligence agencies.

Pakistani cooperation with the U.S. military and CIA has been cut since the bin Laden raid — at a time when militants pose an existential threat to the country. A U.S. rush to the Afghan exits would greatly embolden those militants.

It might also frighten Pakistan’s army into risky compromises.

The stakes are much too high to gamble on a policy that would not only accelerate Afghan collapse but would also risk a Pakistani collapse. Better to withdraw slowly, work to build Afghan security forces, and mend ties with Pakistan’s army.

Neither Obama nor Petraeus will say this out loud, but a prime reason we must stabilize Afghanistan is to prevent militants from grabbing Pakistan.

That’s reason enough to give the current strategy more time.

Britain may be harbinger of U.S. future BELFAST , N ORTHERN IRELAND — The extinct political slogan “As Maine goes, so goes the nation,” may be supplanted by what is happening in the United Kingdom. There is a form of functional political illiteracy here that does not bode well for the United States should it follow Britain’s very bad example, particularly on matters involving immigration and health care.

For several years, the British media have been full of horror stories about failures in the National Health Service (NHS). “Thousands of Elderly at Risk in Care Crisis” screamed the front-page headline in the Times of London last week. This is nothing new, because a headline in The Daily Telegraph nearly two years ago warned, “Cruel and Neglectful Care of One Million NHS Patients Exposed.” Is anyone listening?

“Specialist NHS Clinics Are 20 Times More Likely to Botch Hip Operations,” reported The Daily Mail in 2009. It gets worse. “Standards of Care in Some Wards Would Shame a Third World Country,” reported the Telegraph that same year, along with “NHS Spends Thousands on Climate Change Handbook” and “Patients More Likely to Go Hungry Than Prisoners.”

Cal Thomas tmseditors@tribune.com

“

This meltdown in the NHS is approaching a crisis moment.”

The Telegraph now reports that the “terminally ill” will be asked by their doctors how they would like to die and to write it down so the NHS will know. Will government then assist them to stop the care meter from running? Death panels, anyone?

Last November, The Daily Mail reported, “Britain has fewer doctors per head of population than most countries in the Western World — and owns far less hitech equipment such as cancer scanners because it cannot afford them.” That’s because, said the newspaper, while “UK health spending is on a par with other prosperous countries ... its peo-

ple are less healthy because too much of the money goes towards GPs’ and consultants’ pay packets.” Waiting times to see a specialist are legion.

This meltdown in the NHS is approaching a crisis moment.

Last week, The Telegraph ran a story headlined “Reform or Die, Lansley Tells NHS.” Health Secretary Andrew Lansley says the NHS is facing a black hole of 20 billion British pounds per year (about $32 billion U.S.) unless controversial reforms are implemented (meaning people will have to do more for themselves or taxes will be raised in an already heavily taxed nation).

In an interview with the newspaper, Lansley said the “financial crisis” in the NHS “would see annual health spending double to 230 billion pounds ($375 billion U.S.) a year without urgent reform.”

And then there is the disappearance of Britain’s once proud work ethic, thanks to the expansion of the welfare state under the Labour Party. The Daily Mail reports that between 1997 and 2010, under Labour, “the number of households in which no one has ever had a job almost doubled from 184,000 to 352,000.”

Quoting the Office for National

Health Statistics, The Mail notes, “This equates to more than 550,000 people for whom worklessness has become a way of life.” Worse, “seven out of 10 adults in those households admit they have no intention of ever going to work.” This is the triumph of the entitlement mentality. America, beware!

A dysfunctional British immigration system has allowed 256,000 asylum-seekers over the past 20 years to be granted “amnesty,” according to the Daily Mail. “74,500 cases have been put in storage because the applicants simply cannot be found.”

Add to these concerns the huge number of Muslim immigrants who display no desire to be assimilated into British life, the high abortion rate among the British, and the increasing secularization of culture and you have predictors of where America may be headed if it does not turn back on these attitudes and behavior patterns.

The spread of infection from an E. coli outbreak in the UK does not appear as threatening to the nation’s future as the numerous infections of another kind.

As Britain goes...

Kansas landfills take Joplin debris TOPEKA — Landfills in southeast Kansas will be receiving between 2 million and 3 million cubic yards of construction and demolition debris left by the May 22 tornado that struck Joplin, Mo. The Kansas Department of Health and Environment said Tuesday that the southeast Kansas sites in Crawford and Cherokee counties were the preferred sites for taking the debris.

The first loads of debris were shipped to Kansas on Thursday.

Several hundred truckloads a day are expected through midAugust.

Waste brought to the landfills is being screened by the Bureau of Waste Management to ensure proper procedures are followed and that unauthorized materials are not being disposed of.

Trivia at Conroy’s Pub There’s plenty of trivia in Lawrence throughout the course of a week, most notably SmackDown! hosted every Sunday at the Bottleneck, 737 Mass. But there is another weekly trivia party that, while lesser known, is host to some truly adamant, take-no-prisoners trivia lovers. Conroy’s trivia, hosted at the pub of the same name, 3115 W. Sixth St., features a great blend of offbeat questions that span pop culture, history, politics, biology and pretty much anything else host Tom Conroy can come up with. It costs $5 to play and is open to all ages, but bring your A game because the learning curve’s steep and the teams take their questions gravely seriously.

Wait, what? Daniels picks UConn ————

Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

No Daniels, no sweat Forgive me if I’m not ready to move back to Connecticut in order to cover the college basketball career of DeAndre Daniels.

Pardon me if I’m not devastated that the team I follow to Lubbock, home of the Buddy Holly Museum, and Waco, where the Dr. Pepper Museum ranks as the main attraction, won’t feature a one-and-done, high school mega superstar ranked among the top 10 prospects in the nation.

Defending national champion UConn landed Daniels. Good for UConn. Not necessarily so bad for Kansas, which surely would have had more talent with the 6-foot-8 sharp-shooter in the lineup, but just might be more interesting and easier to embrace without him.

Anybody else welcome a breather from watching a hyped freshman fall far short of ridiculous expectations?

Xavier Henry arrived at KU already built like an NBA guard, but to this day he looks better walking through an airport than trying to shoot his team to victory. McDonald’s All-American.

OK. Ranked No. 8 in the nation.

Really? Chosen 12th in the NBA Draft by the Memphis Grizzlies.

Why? Henry averaged 13.4 points and 4.4 rebounds in a strong freshman season for Kansas, but 10 years from now will anything he did endure in many memories?

Through no fault of his, the pleasant young man from Oklahoma City brought with him to Kansas some family baggage named C.J. Henry. He didn’t cost KU a scholarship because the New York Yankees paid his tuition. His on-court body language was bad enough to make bathroom walls blush.

C.J. did a better job of escaping Xavier’s shadow this past season, tying with Xavier Alexander as Southern Nazarene’s leading scorer with 403 points in 31 games (13.0 average). C.J., a bust at the plate with the Yankees after getting drafted by them in the first round, had 49 assists and 67 turnovers for Southern Nazarene, proving not all of his rust has been knocked off just yet.

If the postseason basketball banquet included a C.J. Henry Bad Body Language Award, freshman Josh Selby would have taken home the hardware.

An NCAA suspension and later an injury combined to destroy Selby’s confidence, but didn’t keep him from bolting college after a year. McDonald’s AllAmerican. OK. Ranked No. 1 in the nation. Really? Projected as a first-round pick. Why? Selby’s been tearing it up in individual workouts, but thus far hasn’t proven he knows how to play with four teammates.

The most startling statistic of the 2010-2011 Kansas basketball season: KU outscored VCU by 10 points when Selby sat and VCU outscored the Jayhawks by 20 points when Selby played.

The Kansas recruiting class, not as loaded as most of coach Bill Self’s, does have highly regarded Ben McLemore.

Curiosity about his game will bring many to Late Night, but the really interesting stories will revolve around three returning players whose development could take huge leaps forward.

Self has no choice but to give significant minutes to juniors Travis Releford, Elijah Johnson and Jeff Withey. Should I be embarrassed that I find weighing in on their progress far more fulfilling work than participating in the over-hyping of another one-and-done wonder?

Huskies make late push for prized recruit, who spurns KU

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Elijah Johnson put on a threePrize college basketball point shooting clinic for those in recruiting prospect DeAndre attendance at Bill Self’s basketDaniels, who for the longest time ball camp at Horejsi Center. Plus, had listed Kansas University, a slew of hoops notes and Texas and Oregon as his three updates. Page 6B finalists, has decided to play college basketball at ... Connecticut.

Daniels, a 6-foot-8 senior forward from IMG Academy in The commitment of Bradenton, Fla., committed to Rivals.com’s No. 10-rated player the defending national champi- in the Class of 2011 was reported on Huskies late Tuesday after- on the IMG Academy Website. noon. “ D e A n d re h a s t a ke n f u l l

advantage of everything that IMG has to offer and has continued to develop on the court, in the classroom and in the weight room,” IMG director of basketball Andy Borman said in a release. “He is an extremely talented young man, but what sets him apart from other talented kids his age is the fact that he is extremely driven and focused on becoming the best player possible. He is an immediate impact player at the next level.”

Daniels, who did not make a

recruiting visit to UConn, told ESPN: “Until now it’s been all speculation. It’s over and I’m going to UConn.”

Daniels is expected to be a one-and-done college player. His initial interest in UConn was reported by Zagsblog.com just five days ago.

KU, which still has three scholarships to give in recruiting, has an incoming class of guards Ben McLemore and Naadir Tharpe, and forwards Jamari Traylor and Braeden Anderson.

Daniels had a list of Kansas, Texas and Oregon, but ultimately chose national champion UConn

Such is the case for Kansas University freshman track star Diamond Dixon, one of a handful of KU athletes who will compete at the 2011 NCAA Outdoor Championships, which begin today in Des Moines, Iowa.

Dixon, named Monday as the Midwest Region Track Athlete of the Year by the U.S. Track & Field

and Cross Country Coaches Association, will compete in the 400meter dash and the 4x400 meter relay.

Dixon enters her lone individual event as one of the favorites. Her top time of 51.55 seconds is tied for the fastest in the nation this season. It’s also a school record.

Despite the last few months passing by like a whirlwind, Dixon, a freshman from El Paso, Texas, has done her best to soak it all in.

“I can’t say I didn’t expect it at all,” she said of her immediate success. “But I didn’t really expect to

have the top time in the nation as a freshman and stuff like that. It’s been pretty amazing.”

In addition to the regional honor, Dixon was named the Big 12 outstanding female freshman of the year after winning the 400meter title at the Big 12 Outdoor Championships. In all, she won the event three times this season and was ranked in the Top 25 on a regular basis. Hard work had something to do with her success, but something different was actually the driving force.

“I just don’t like to lose,” she

MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL DRAFT

Lefty Kukuk picked by Red Sox

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

Heading into the week, there were just a couple of Major League Baseball caps hanging in Free State High baseball standout Cody Kukuk’s room.

Early Tuesday afternoon, Kukuk’s collection grew by one. But, this time, the logo on his new hat belonged to his new team.

The Boston Red Sox made Kukuk the 20th Kukuk pick in the seventh round (No. 232 overall) in Tuesday’s amateur draft, some-

“We were watching it online, and when I saw my name come up, my heart just kind of dropped, honestly,” Kukuk said.

“I wasn’t really expecting to get drafted by the Red Sox. It was kind of surprising. But I’m pretty excited.”

Shortly after the news hit the Kukuk home, Kukuk’s father,

said. “And I really want to be the best.”

She’ll get that chance at 6:45 tonight, when she kicks off the meet for the 16th-ranked KU women at Drake Stadium on the campus of Drake University. Later this week, Dixon will join senior Kendra Bradley, junior Shayla Wilson and sophomore Taylor Washington in the 4x400 meter relay. So far this season, the team has turned in the second-fastest time in KU history.

Tiger Woods to miss U.S. Open JACKSONVILLE, FLA. (AP) — Tiger Woods pulled out of the U.S. Open on Tuesday because of lingering issues with his left leg, leaving him uncertain how soon he can resume his pursuit of Jack Nicklaus’ record for major titles.

It will be the first time Woods has missed the U.S. Open since 1994, when he had just graduated high school.

“I am extremely disappointed that I won’t be playing in the U.S. Open, but Woods it’s time for me to listen to my doctors and focus on the future,” Woods said on his website. “I was hopeful that I could play, but if I did, I risk further damage to my left leg. My knee and Achilles tendon are not fully healed.”

Woods said he hoped to be ready for the AT&T National, which starts June 30 at Aronomink, and the next two majors. Then again, he said two weeks ago he would do everything possible to be ready for the U.S. Open, which is far more significant.

“We’re very disappointed that he won be playing in the National Open,” USGA executive director Mike Davis said, whom Woods called Tuesday morning. “He certainly brings excitement to the event. He’ll be missed, but the U.S. Open will go on. The event is bigger than one player, but he certainly will be missed.”

The U.S. Open starts June 16 at Congressional, where Woods won the AT&T National two years ago and tied for 19th when the U.S. Open was last played there in 1997.

Woods was replaced by Michael Whitehead, a senior at Rice who

COMMENTARY

Pryor knows NCAA will find more dirt

By Marla Ridenour Akron Beacon Journal

Terrelle Pryor saw no reason to prolong the agony.

His, or that of Ohio State fans who cast him as the scapegoat for the forced resignation of their beloved coach Jim Tressel.

Pryor’s lawyer, Larry James, released a statement from the quarterback to the Cleveland Plain Dealer Tuesday evening.

In it Pryor said, “In the best interest of my teammates, I have decided to forego my senior year of football at the Ohio State University.” It’s the first time Pryor has thought of his teammates since he started making regular runs from the equipment room to Fine Line Ink. His decision came just eight days after Tressel’s Memorial Day ouster.

Perhaps Pryor could imagine the boos from the sellout crowd of 105,000 that would have greeted him when he first set foot in Ohio Stadium on Oct. 29 against Wisconsin. That is Game 8, but the Buckeyes’ first at home after the five-game NCAA suspension he would have served for receiving improper benefits from the owner of a local tattoo parlor. The only way he could have gotten through that night unscathed would have been to masquerade as Bucky Badger.

Perhaps Pryor no longer feels safe in Columbus. The two students who wrote former receiver Ray Small’s damaging story of discounts on cars and tattoos for OSU’s newspaper, the Lantern, have received death threats, along with other members of the staff. Earlier this year ESPN college football analyst Kirk Herbstreit moved to Nashville over concerns for his family’s safety.

Perhaps Pryor knows the NCAA is going to find more dirt on him as it continues its investigation.

Or maybe Pryor really wanted to turn pro, anyway, but only said he would return for his senior season so he could face Arkansas in the Sugar Bowl. A statement released by OSU coach Luke Fickell said Pryor “has decided to pursue a professional career. I wish him the best in his pursuits.”

Who knows what Fickell said to Pryor about his chances of playing in the Buckeyes’ final seven games in 2011. If Fickell listened to Oklahoma coach Bob Stoops, Fickell told him he wouldn’t play at all.

Stoops told the Oklahoman last week that once he learned quarterback Rhett Bomar was found to have taken illegal benefits from a local car dealership, he told him in August 2006, “You’re not playing at Oklahoma.” When Bomar asked Stoops if he meant the next season, Stoops said he responded, “No, it’s going to be forever. We’ll move on. You can transfer.”

Bomar was a redshirt freshman and his options were limited. Pryor has several.

He could stay at Ohio State and try to finish his degree. He could transfer to a smaller school, which seems fruitless when he has a 31-4 record as a starter. It’s likely he’ll apply for the NFL’s supplemental draft, which will be held whenever the league resumes business. That will give 32 teams a chance to pass on him for several rounds until they get to the round where their personnel directors decide his value lies.

It’s possible he’s been driving better cars in college than he will in the NFL, especially if he ends up playing tight end and special teams for the rookie minimum.

Whatever the reason for Pryor’s decision, he saved fans a lot of boos and himself a lot of heartache. Assuming he has a heart.

was first alternate from the Dallas qualifier. Whitehead had to win a playoff just to get out of the first stage of 18-hole qualifying, and was stunned to get the news.

“They said on the phone that Tiger has withdrawn from the Open,” Whitehead said. “So, ’Thanks, Tiger.’ I guess I’m glad he was listening to his doctors.”

The future of Woods, meanwhile, is as muddied as ever.

“The hardest thing in the world as a golfer, or any athlete, is to stay out,” two-time U.S. Open champion Curtis Strange said. “It’s smart what he’s doing. Unfortunately, the U.S. Open falls in that time frame. But every time something happens, and the longer he’s away from the game, it’s going to make it tougher for him to come back.

“It’s going to be harder and harder the long this goes.”

Woods hasn’t won since the 2009 Australian Masters, a stretch

of 22 tournaments. He not only lost his No. 1 ranking late last year, he has plunged to No. 15 in the world, his lowest spot in the ranking since the spring of 1997.

Woods announced his decision on Twitter: “Not playing in US Open. Very disappointed. Shortterm frustration for long-term gain.”

He had said in his most recent press conference that his injury was “not the doomsday that some of the press members are writing about.” Some in his camp believe if he had skipped The Players Championship, his left leg would have been fully healed perhaps in time for the Memorial, which he missed last week.

Only Woods knows what kind of shape his leg is in, although he said another surgery has never been brought up by his doctors.

The Masters is now the only major Woods has played every year since turning pro.

Pryor giving up senior season at Ohio State COLUMBUS, OHIO — Terrelle Pryor’s career at Ohio State, which started with so much promise and potential, came to an abrupt and scandal-ridden end.

The Ohio State quarterback announced through his attorney Tuesday that he would not play for the Buckeyes this season. He had already been suspended for the first five games for breaking NCAA rules by accepting improper benefits from the owner of a tattoo parlor.

“In the best interests of Pryor my teammates, I’ve made the decision to forgo my senior year of football at The Ohio State University,” Pryor said in a statement issued by Columbus lawyer Larry James.

Pryor will most likely make himself available for an NFL supplemental draft.

“I would hope so. Also, he would hope so,” said James, who added that Pryor was not available for comment. “But he’s going to take the next couple of days to get his head together.”

The Cleveland Plain Dealer first reported Pryor’s announcement.

The NCAA is looking into all aspects of Ohio State’s once-glittering program, from cash and tattoos to players, cars deals for athletes and other potential violations.

Pryor’s announcement comes just eight days after Buckeyes coach Jim Tressel was forced to resign for knowing about the players’ improper benefits but not telling any of his superiors.

COLLEGE FOOTBALL Tennessee AD Hamilton resigns KNOXVILLE, TENN. — Tennessee athletics director Mike Hamilton announced Tuesday he decided to resign so the Volunteers would have a “clean slate” when they go before the NCAA’s Committee on Infractions later in the week.

Hamilton, who has been at the helm of Tennessee men’s athletics for eight seasons, said it was both a personal decision and one that he hoped would help reunite the Vols fanbase.

During a three-year period, Hamilton fired a popular coach, hired a controversial one and now the athletic department faces 12 NCAA infractions against the football and basketball programs.

Owners, players seek new CBA DALLAS — Given the sizable gap in their positions, it would be easy for NBA owners and players just to walk away.

Instead, they will follow a long negotiating session Tuesday by heading right back to the bargaining table as planned Wednesday.

“I just take it as a real positive that we’re continuing to meet,” Commissioner David Stern said. “When you have parties like this, it’s just as easy if you don’t think that there’s the possibility of a breakthrough to say, ’All right, let’s pack it in and let’s go home.’ But nobody on either side wanted to go home.”

With the current collective bargaining agreement set to expire June 30, both sides say they hope frequent meetings can prevent a lockout.

Hornets’ assistant to join Warriors OAKLAND, CALIF. — New Golden State Warriors coach Mark Jackson will have one of the NBA’s top assistants on the bench with him next season.

The Warriors hired Mike Malone as an assistant coach Tuesday. Malone was an assistant for New Orleans last season and previously the lead assistant in Cleveland under Mike Brown.

Malone has built a reputation as a top defensive coach and was offered a position on Brown’s new staff with the Los Angeles Lakers. The Hornets improved substantially on defense last season, ranking fifth in points allowed at 94.04 per game.

MLB Red Sox closer Papelbon suspended NEW YORK — Boston Red Sox closer Jonathan Papelbon has been suspended three games for making contact with an umpire.

The suspension was to begin Tuesday night against the New York Yankees, but Papelbon is appealing.

Major League Baseball also fined Papelbon an undisclosed amount for his actions in the ninth inning last Saturday, when he blew a four-run lead as the Oakland Athletics tied it at 7. Boston won, 9-8 in 14 innings.

BOXING Mayweather, Ortiz to fight

PHILADELPHIA — Comcast-Spectacor is in serious discussions to sell the 76ers to a group of investors led by New York-based leveraged-buyout specialist Joshua Harris, several sources said Tuesday.

Under the proposed deal, Comcast-Spectacor chairman Ed Snider would sell Harris and his investment group a 90 percent share of the team. Earlier this year, Forbes listed the Sixers as the 17th most valuable NBA franchise, worth approximately $330 million.

No exact number has been attached to the deal, but sources put it in the range of $270 million to $290 million.

With this deal, Snider would relinquish majority control of the franchise.

KANSAS PITCHER COLTON MURRAY, CENTER, IS CONGRATULATED by teammates after pitching out of a jam on April 3, 2010, at Hoglund Ballpark. Murray was drafted by the Philadelphia Phillies in the 13th round on Tuesday.

2 Jayhawks drafted ———

RHP Murray taken by Phillies; RHP Walz picked by A’s

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

As the years have gone by, Kansas University baseball coach Ritch Price has seen more and more former Jayhawks work their way up from the college ranks into minor league and, in some cases, Major League success.

That, Price says, can be a helpful tool in recruiting, as he can point to the affiliations between his former Jayhawks and Major League ballclubs with more regularity each year.

Tuesday, the list grew by two, as pitchers Colton Murray, a junior from Overland Park, and T.J. Walz, a senior from Omaha, Neb., were picked in Major League Baseball’s amateur draft.

Murray was the first Jayhawk off the board Tuesday, taken with the last pick of the 13th round (421 overall) by the Philadelphia Phillies. Though the KU closer could elect to return to school for his senior season, Price anticipates him leaving.

“I think he’s ready to play and wants to move forward with his career,” Price said of Murray. “I think the best thing for him would be to go out and get his professional career started.”

In three years at Kansas,

“

I think he’s ready to play and wants to move forward with his career. I think the best thing for him would be to go out and get his professional career started.”

— KU coach Ritch Price, about Colton Murray Murray went 6-9 with a 3.89 ERA in 80 games. All but two of his appearances were out of the bullpen. He recorded 11 saves and 108 strikeouts in 111 innings, and his 11 saves are fourth all-time at KU. Murray’s selection in the 13th round made it three years straight that KU has had a player drafted in the top 15 rounds. He joins David Narodowski (15th round, 2009); Tony Thompson (sixth round, 2010) and Robby Price (13th round, 2010).

A couple of rounds later, Walz saw his name added to this list, as the Oakland A’s snagged him in the 15th round, with the 466th overall pick.

Walz leaves KU as one of the best pitchers in school history. In 2011, he led the team in wins, going 6-5 in 14 starts with 85 strikeouts. He finished the season with a 3.97 ERA and was named all-

“

It’s definitely an honor, more than anything. I think it would be an CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B honor for me to wear a with the Red Sox organiza- Boston uniform and pitch tion. Scheduled to leave today in Fenway.” for Southeast Texas, where he’ll play summer ball, the left-hander said he wasn’t too worried about the weight of the choice just yet and that he was pleased with where he was picked.

“The round doesn’t really matter,” Kukuk said. “It’s more about your signing bonus, so we’ll just have to see what happens with all that. (Negotiating) hasn’t really started yet. I’m kind of a summer follow for them. They’re gonna watch me pitch this summer and we’re just gonna go from there.”

As if being drafted in the Top 10 rounds wasn’t exciting enough, both Kukuk and his mother, Lori, said being picked by an iconic club like Boston just added to the day’s excitement.

“It’s definitely an honor, more than anything,” Kukuk said. “I think it would be an honor for me to wear a Boston uniform and pitch in Fenway.”

Added Lori: “It’s a program that’s been around forever.

People keep asking us, ‘Have you been to Boston?’ and none of us have. But we’re excited to go.”

Kukuk’s first trip to Beantown should come sometime in July, when the big league club hosts all of its 2011 draft

— Cody Kukuk picks for a meet-and-greet at Fenway Park. During the process leading up to the draft, Kukuk threw at Kansas City’s Kauffman Stadium and Seattle’s Safeco Field. He admitted the thought of pitching in Fenway blew away both of those opportunities.

If history is any indication of what’s ahead for Kukuk, he and his family ought to prepare themselves for a nice offer.

In last year’s seventh round, the Red Sox selected University of Miami senior pitcher Chris Hernandez, who had no leverage with the club but still received a signing bonus of $375,000. 2010 sixth-round pick, Kendrick Perkins, an outfielder from La Porte High in Texas, signed and received a bonus of $628,000. The team’s eighth-rounder in 2010, Virginia Tech pitcher Matthew Price, signed for $415,000 and 10th-round pick, Jacob Dahlstrand, a high school senior from Houston, signed for $150,000.

Interestingly enough, the 232nd pick in last year’s draft, Ryan Christenson, a lefthanded junior college pitcher,

Big 12 honorable mention for t h e s e co n d t i m e i n h i s career.

Walz owns school records in innings pitched (328 1⁄3), games started (50) and strikeouts (307), and is tied for first in career wins, with 26.

“I think he got paid a really good compliment, as a senior, to be picked in the first 15 rounds,” Price said of his former ace. “Oakland’s notorious for senior signings. It’s one thing they believe in.

They believe in college players, they believe in college seniors and I don’t think he could’ve been picked by a better organization that suits his abilities.”

Earlier in the day Tuesday, the Jayhawks also saw one of their top high school prospects drafted, as Free State High senior Cody Kukuk was picked by Boston in the 7th round.

“One of the things that’s really hurt us the last two years is we’ve been hurt re a l ly ba d i n t h e d ra f t ,” Price said. “Not just with o u r g uys , b u t w i t h h i g h school kids. But it’s all part of the process as your program gets better.”

The amateur draft concludes today, when as many as eight other Jayhawks could hear their names called in the final 30 rounds.

signed with the Dodgers for $125,000.

Going back a little more, Madison Younginer, a righthanded pitcher from Mauldin (S.C.) High, was the Red Sox’s seventh-round pick in 2009.

He signed with the club and received a bonus of $975,000.

With those numbers stacked against him, KU head coach Ritch Price took time to talk about Kukuk’s big day.

“I have such great respect for the young man and his family,” Price said. “They’ve handled this whole process properly. When he slid past Round 4, I thought we had a chance of getting him. You look at the kids who were taken at the top of the draft and you see the highest selected guys were college pitchers. At the same time, there were three organizations that I was hoping, selfishly, wouldn’t pick him and the Red Sox were one of the three.”

Both Price and Kukuk said they expected to talk to each other in the near future.

“Now that we know what team it is and we know what round it is, we’ll sit down and talk it over with him,” Price said. “(The Red Sox) start with him and they’ll negotiate and that could take as long as a month.”

Regardless of the outcome, Price said he’d remain a Kukuk supporter.

“I’ll respect whatever decision they make,” Price said.

“And we’ll be his biggest fans next to his family.”

KANSAS CITY, MO. (AP) — Just about anything would have been an improvement over Vin Mazzaro’s previous big league outing.

Mazzaro yielded six runs on eight hits and three walks in five innings of the Kansas City Royals’ 8-5 loss to the Toronto Blue Jays on Tuesday night. He served up Adam Lind’s homer in a three-run first, but regrouped and kept the Royals in the game.

Mazzaro (0-1), just recalled from Triple-A Omaha, was making his first big league appearance since giving up 14 runs on 11 hits and three walks in 2 1⁄3 innings against Cleveland on May 16. The last pitcher to give up at least 14 runs in less than three innings was Ed Doheny of the New York Giants on June 29, 1899.

“After the first inning I settled down pretty good,” Mazzaro said. “It was an OK outing. It could have been better. I thought I made a good pitch to Lind, a changeup. He waited well and hit it a long way.”

After the debacle against the Indians, Mazzaro was optioned to Omaha. He put together three solid starts in the Pacific Coast League to earn a chance at redemption.

“I went down to Omaha and figured some things out,” Mazzaro said. “I was pitching pretty well.”

But he wasn’t good enough Tuesday to earn a victory in his return to the majors.

“Vin was OK,” Royals manager Ned Yost said. “There were three or four plays where we didn’t help him out much. With a little more help his line would have been better. We just didn’t play a very good fundamental baseball game.”

Lind and J.P. Arencibia each hit a two-run homer to lead the Blue Jays.

Yunel Escobar scored the first Blue Jays run with the help of two Kansas City errors. Escobar singled, stole second, moved to third on catcher Matt Treanor’s

KANSAS CITY ROYALS RIGHT FIELDER JEFF FRANCOEUR CHASES a two-run home run hit by Toronto Blue Jays’ Adam Lind in the first inning Tuesday in Kansas City, Mo. throwing error and came home on center fielder Melky Cabrera’s throwing error.

A re n c i b i a h i t h i s 1 0 t h homer, which ranks second among big league rookies, in the eighth with Lind aboard.

Lind also drove in a run in the fifth when his sacrifice fly scored Mike McCoy to hike the Blue Jays’ advantage to 62. McCoy doubled home Jayson Nix with the first run of the inning.

Escobar left after three innings with a bruised left quadriceps after being kneed in the thigh on his steal in the first inning. He was replaced

by McCoy. Blue Jays rookie right-hander Kyle Drabek (4-4), who failed to get out of the first inning in his previous start, a loss against Cleveland, labored through 5 1⁄3 innings to pick up the victory. He gave up five runs on nine hits, three walks and four wild pitches.

“There are some good things I can take from it,” Drabek said. “We never would

have got the win if it wasn’t for the rest of the team. They were scoring and making plays for me. I tried to keep us in the game, but that last inning got a little bit wild. It was another game I would go 3-2 to most batters or start 20 and have to come back. It seems like it keeps happening.

It needs to change.”

Rookie left-hander Luis Perez replaced Drabek and threw 2 2⁄3 scoreless innings, extending his shutout streak to 10 innings. Jon Rauch worked the ninth for his seventh save in nine chances.

Jeff Francoeur drove in the first three Kansas City runs with two singles and a sacrifice fly.

Rookie first baseman Eric Hosmer had two singles, extending his hitting streak to a career-high nine games. He also walked and scored two runs.

Cabrera had two hits and drove in a run.

Notes: Royals RHP Kyle Davies (shoulder inflammation) and LHP Bruce Chen (strained left lat) are scheduled to begin minor league rehab assignments today with Double-A Northwest Arkansas. They are both slated to start in a doubleheader against Arkansas.

Ian Desmond had an RBI single and Wilson Ramos added two hits as the Nationals rebounded from Monday’s frustrating 13-inning loss to win despite stranding 11 runners.

Zimmermann scattered five hits and had three strikeouts to beat the Giants for the second time this season. The right-hander also won consecutive starts for the first time this year.

DALLAS 86, MIAMI 83

Mavericks pull even D A L L A S ( AP ) — Coughing and wheezing, his temperature spiking to 101, worn out from hardly sleeping the night before, Dirk Nowitzki went through three miserable quarters in Game 4 of the NBA finals.

Yet the fourth quarter was his time to shine. Again.

And now the Dallas Mavericks and Miami Heat are starting over in the NBA finals, this best-of-seven series reduced to a best-of-three.

Nowitzki fought through a sinus infection and everything else that ailed him and his team to power a 21-9 run over the final 10:12, lifting the Mavericks to a memorable 8683 victory Tuesday night. He scored 10 of his 21 points — including a driving righthanded layup that spun in off the backboard with 14.4 seconds left — and grabbed five of his 11 rebounds in the final period as Dallas pulled off its second stunning finish this series.

“Just battle it out,” Nowitzki said, sniffing throughout his postgame interview with his warm-up jacket zipped all the way up, still in his uniform instead of changing into street clothes like the NBA prefers.

“This is the finals. You have to go out there and compete and try your best for your team. So that’s what I did.”

The Mavs avoided going down 3-1, a deficit no team has ever overcome in the finals, and guaranteed the series will return to Miami for a Game 6 on Sunday night.

Game 5 is Thursday night in Dallas, and Nowitzki vowed to be ready.

“There’s no long term,” Nowitzki said. “I’ll be all right on Thursday. ... Hopefully I’ll get some sleep tonight, take some meds and be ready to go on Thursday.”

Nowitzki wasn’t as dominant as Michael Jordan when he scored 38 points despite a 103-degree fever in Game 5 of the 1997 finals — but it was that kind of performance down the stretch. If the Mavericks wind up winning their first championship, this performance will go down in NBA lore, topping his effort in Game 2, when he bounced back from a torn tendon in the tip of his left middle finger to score the final nine points in Dallas’ 22-5 rally, including two left-handed layups.

MIAMI’S JOEL ANTHONY FOULS Dallas’ Tyson Chandler (6) as he goes up for a shot during the first half of Game 4 of the NBA finals. The Mavericks won, 86-83, Tuesday in Dallas. how meek a healthy LeBron James played Tuesday.

James scored only eight points, ending a double-figure scoring streak of 433 consecutive games, regular season and postseason. It was the first time in 90 playoff games that he scored such few points.

He made only three of 11 shots — a tip-in, a 15-foot jumper and a breakaway dunk. Not only did he not score in the fourth quarter, he took only one shot while playing all 12 minutes.

“I’ve got to do a better job of being more assertive offensively,” said James, who nonetheless contributed nine rebounds and seven assists.

“I’m confident in my ability.

It’s just about going out there and knocking them down.”

Dwyane Wade led Miami with 32 points, but missed a free throw with 30.1 seconds left and fumbled an inbounds pass with 6.7 seconds left. He knocked the ball back to Mike Miller for a potential tying three-pointer, but it wasn’t even close to hitting the rim.

Fans jumped to their feet and began roaring as soon as they could tell the ball was off-target.

Dallas players savored it, too, except for Nowitzki, who walked off looking somewhat sullen, obviously ready for a hot shower and a warm bed.

The illness hit Monday

night. After struggling to get any rest, he showed up for shootaround but hardly did anything.

His condition was kept a secret, and he helped keep it that way by hitting his first three shots. Then he missed 10 of 11 and it was obvious something was wrong. The biggest giveaway: he also missed a free throw for the first time since Game 4 of the conference finals.

Mavs coach Rick Carlisle tried resting Nowitzki as much as he could. During timeouts, he stayed in his chair as long as possible, trying to conserve every ounce of energy.

“You’ve got a guy that’s 7 foot, there’s a different kind of toll it takes on your body when you’re sick,” Carlisle said. “Everyone could tell looking at him that he labored.”

This series is now more fascinating than ever.

After the last two games were decided by two points, the first time that happened in the finals since 1998, this one was decided by three. In many ways, it was the best one yet because of how tight it was throughout.

The Heat seemed to have taken control when they led, 74-65, their biggest lead of the night.

But Dallas went to a zone and Miami struggled.

FINALS GLANCE (Best-of-7) Miami 2, Dallas 2 Tuesday, May 31: Miami 92, Dallas 84 Thursday, June 2: Dallas 95, Miami 93 Sunday: Miami 88, Dallas 86 Tuesday: Dallas 86, Miami 83 Thursday: Miami at Dallas, 8 p.m.

Sunday, June 12: Dallas at Miami, 7 p.m. x-Tuesday, June 14: Dallas at Miami, 8 p.m. (x-if necessary)

Jason Terry — who kickstarted that comeback with six straight points — made consecutive baskets, and the surge was on. Terry ended up capping it with two free throws with 6.7 seconds left that forced Miami to need a three-pointer.

Dallas finally got the balanced scoring attack it wanted.

Terry had 17, Shawn Marion 16 and Chandler had 13 points and 16 rebounds.

DeShawn Stevenson, who moved to the bench so J.J. Barea could join the starting lineup, scored 11 points for Dallas.

Bosh scored 24 points for Miami, but the Heat got little beyond its three superstars.

Miller scored six points, Mario Chalmers had five and Haslem and Joel Anthony each scored four points.

It was an electric night from the start, with 20,430 fans again clad in their blue “The Time Is Now” giveaway Tshirts standing and screaming from the time Kelly Clarkson finished the national anthem.

James has eight points in loss DALLAS (AP) — LeBron James was looking for the best win of his playoff career.

Instead, almost stunningly, he turned in his worst postseason scoring performance.

For the first time in 90 postseason games — and his last 434 overall — James did not reach double digits in the scoring column. His offense was, by his lofty standards, offensive: a mere eight points on 3-for-11 shooting, and the Miami Heat lost, 86-83, to the Dallas Mavericks on Tuesday night.

The series is even at two games apiece, with Game 5 in Dallas on Thursday.

And here’s a certainty: Between now and then, every aspect of James’ offensive shortcomings in Game 4 will be scrutinized in about every way possible.

“Obviously, we’d like to get him involved,” Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said. “He’s a very important piece to what we do. So we’ll work to help make it easier for him in the next game.”

Although James finished with nine rebounds and seven assists, his night will be considered a clunker — a big one.

Spoelstra said the two-time MVP is physically fine, and took the blame for what he said was not putting James in the best opportunities offensively.

“I’ve got to do a better job,” Spoelstra said.

The last time James scored under 10 points was Jan. 5, 2007.

That night in Milwaukee — also an eight-point effort —

This one, on the NBA’s biggest stage, certainly will not be forgotten anytime soon. And he was scoreless in the fourth quarter, meaning he’s got a total of nine points

in the final periods in these four games with Dallas.

“Let’s continue to play desperate,” James told his teammates before the game.

“That’s the only way we know how to play basketball. That’s

the best way we know how to play. When we play desperate, we feel like our back is against the wall.”

It’s a safe bet he will feel even more desperate on Thursday night. He was a lightning rod for criticism after Game 3, when he was asked if he’s shrinking away from the moment.

James brushed that question off. He’ll hear it again, a lot, until Thursday night.

James tried one shot in the fourth quarter, and was 2-for7 after halftime — one of those an open dunk in transition, the other a jumper late in the third quarter when Miami had a chance to pull away.

It wasn’t just James, struggling, either. Miami had nine points in the final 10 minutes, wasting a lead again for the second time in the series.

Udonis Haslem’s jumper gave Miami a 74-65 lead, but it quickly disappeared from there for the Eastern Conference champions.

“Our team defense really stepped up in the fourth, which we had to do because we were playing from behind,” Mavericks coach Rick Carlisle said.

It’s the ninth time in his career James was held to single figures, though most of those came when he was a rookie. Of his 90 playoff games, he had scored at least 20 in 78 of them. And for his career, it was just the n i n t h t i m e i n 7 17 ga m e s where he didn’t reach double digits.

“We’ll be better in Game 5,” Spoelstra said.

BILL SELF’S BASKETBALL CAMP

Kansas guard Johnson puts on shooting clinic

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com Richard Gwin/Journal-World Photo

THE NEW LIVESTRONG SPORTING PARK IS HOME to Major League Soccer’s Sporting KC, which will take on the Chicago Fire in the team’s home season opener on Thursday in Kansas City, Kan. It will be the first game played in the $200 million stadium.

MLS SOCCER

Sporting KC players thrilled for stadium’s home opener

By Clark Goble Journal-World Sports Writer

KANSAS CITY, KAN. — After 15 seasons of playing in somebody else’s stadium, Sporting Kansas City has finally found a permanent home at Livestrong Sporting Park.

The $200 million facility is now ready for Sporting’s home opener on Thursday night against the Chicago Fire. The game will kick off at 9 p.m. and will be broadcast on ESPN2 (Knology cable channels 34, 234), ESPN Deportes and ESPN3.com.

Workers were just putting the final touches on the stadium on Tuesday’s media day, but goalkeeper Eric Kronberg said the facility still doesn’t seem real.

“It’s starting to feel like that, but I don’t think it’s going to hit until the home opener,” Kronberg said.

Kronberg turned 28 on Tuesday and showed up to Livestrong Sporting Park after going to brunch with his girlfriend and relaxing.

With training in the afternoon and practice set for the evening, Kronberg said he wouldn’t be doing much celebrating.

“But what a great birthday present this is,” Kronberg said. “We’re all so thrilled to

As for those nicknames, Dixon said she hasn’t really heard too many throughout the years.

“Some of my teammates call me Triple D or whatever,” she said. “But the only other thing I hear is just like, ‘Diamond in the Rough’ and stuff like that.”

Triple D? Seems odd for a woman whose middle name is Britney. Dixon agrees.

“I don’t even know where the extra D comes in,” she said with a laugh.

Here’s a quick look at the rest of the Jayhawks scheduled to compete at this week’s outdoor championships in Des Moines.

Rebecca Stowe — 3,000 Steeplechase Stowe is competing in this event at nationals for the second straight season and she enters the meet with the secondfastest time in the field.

A junior from Stowe Olathe, Stowe set a school record in the event in May by running a 9:53.12.

She took second at the Big 12 Outdoor Championships with a time of 10:15.29, which earned her the trip to Iowa.

The semifinals of this year’s event will kick off at 7:30 p.m.

Thursday.

Andrea Geubelle — Long jump, triple jump Geubelle, a sophomore from University Place, Wash., will participate in her two jumping events for the second consecutive year. She reached the meet by finishing seventh in the triple jump and eighth in the long jump at the West Prelims. She currently ranks 13th nationally in both events, a ranking that was boosted by her third-place finish in the long jump at the Big 12 meet.

be here and excited to finally play at home.”

The club opened its MLS season with a 10-game road trip so that construction on Livestrong Sporting Park could be finished. Sporting struggled to generate much momentum, falling to 1-6-3 in MLS play and securing last place in the Eastern Conference.

Sporting did win two U.S. Open Cup games — one in Overland Park — but playing at home should give the team a boost as it tries to work its way back into the MLS postseason picture.

“Obviously, we’re almost a third of the way through the season, but this is our first home game, so we’re excited to play in front of our home fans,” Kronberg said.

Some of the prominent features of Livestrong Sporting Park include Wi-Fi access throughout the facility, intimate seating designed to eliminate poor sightlines and the largest HD video board for soccer in the United States.

There’s even a “boot room” where Sporting players can hang their game cleats on small pegs.

Players, coaches and staff members agree: Livestrong Sporting Park was built to be one of the top soccer-specific stadiums in North America.

First up for Geubelle is the long jump at 5:30 tonight.

She’ll close the meet with the triple jump at 5:35 p.m. Friday.

The stadium could also develop into a strong tool for recruiting free agents and potential players against bigger markets like Los Angeles and New York.

“I think any player would be excited to play in a stadium like this,” Kronberg said. “And with the fans we have here, any player would be fortunate to come here.”

The club hopes a partnership with Cisco will help the stadium deliver a technological experience unrivaled in Major League Soccer. Two innovations were announced on Tuesday, with more to come in the near future.

“What we want Livestrong Sporting Park to be is truly a living lab for technologies,” Sporting CEO Robb Heineman said.

MLS commissioner Don Garber was in Detroit for the U.S. national team’s Gold Cup match against Canada on Tuesday, but he lauded Sporting’s savvy approach in a video statement.

Garber will attend Thursday’s home opener, which promises to be a fevered environment.

“When I’m yelling out there at my players, it’s loud with just me yelling,” Kronberg said. “I can only imagine 18,000 people yelling. It’s going to be awesome.”

Kansas University junior combo guard Elijah Johnson put on an impressive threepoint shooting exhibition for Bill Self’s basketball campers on Tuesday afternoon in Horejsi Center.

Darting around a team manager who was setting screens, the 6-foot-4, 195pound Johnson swished between five and 10 treys in a row several different times in a high-energy, 20-minute drill.

“It’s like dancing. You catch a rhythm and you go,” Johnson said. “Just like the O.K. State game, it’s a rhythm with me.

Once I’m on, I’m on.”

Johnson, who hit 22 of 55 threes his sophomore season (40 percent), went 4-for-4 from beyond the arc in a 92-65 pounding of Oklahoma State last Feb. 21 in Allen Fieldhouse.

“I don’t count how many I shoot (practicing) or how many I make. I just try to see the highest number I can make in a row,” Johnson said.

“Conner Teahan (senior guard) can make about 60 in a row. I’ve seen him do it and from anywhere, too. With me, the number varies. I’ve made about 42, 43 in a row before.

I’ve probably made more than that, but that’s just lately I made 42 in a row.”

The former Las Vegas Cheyenne High standout, who averaged 3.4 points, 1.8 assists and 13.7 minutes a game in 36 games last season, realizes he’ll have to provide scoring punch following the loss of the Morris twins, Tyrel Reed, Brady Morningstar, Mario Little and Josh Selby.

“Somebody has to make shots. We’ve got to have guards that can make a shot,” Johnson said. “I feel like every guard on our team can make shots this year. Tyshawn (Taylor) drives so well. He can shoot the ball.”

Johnson believes hard work in the spring and summer will pay off during the 2011-12 season.

“Me and Thomas (Robinson, junior power forward) were trying to take no days off since the season ended, especially Thomas. Coach (Bill Self) told us to leave the ball

alone a little bit and let our legs recover and start over so I stopped playing ball a little bit,” Johnson said of the week or so following KU’s seasonending, Elite Eight loss to VCU. “Once I got back into it I felt like I was learning all over again. It made it fun again, just working and being in the gym, starting all over again — 365 (days).”

Johnson said he relishes the opportunity to grasp a more meaningful role in games.

“Honestly the time to go is now (after KU’s personnel losses). I’m one of the people to look up to with Tyshawn, Thomas. We’ve got to carry the team,” Johnson said. “The team will go as far as we take ’em, so I am willing to take ’em far.”

Johnson, who is enrolled in summer school, has time to make his mark.

“I need to get stronger, to make sure I’m definitely the strongest guard. I am right now, but I definitely want to be the strongest guard on the team,” Johnson said. “Also learn how to work with the freshmen because they are an important piece of our puzzle, to be a leader, lead by example, have a good attitude.” ●

Keller to A&M: Texas A&M on Tuesday off icially announced the hiring of KU video coordinator Kyle Keller as assistant coach on new Aggie coach Billy Kennedy’s staff.

Prior to his three-year stint at KU, Keller served nine years on the Oklahoma State staff under head coaches Eddie Sutton and Sean Sutton.

“I’ve known Kyle for a long time,” Kennedy said. “His experience in the Big 12 and his ability to recruit Dallas and the state of Texas will be a great benefit to our program.”

KU coach Bill Self said he was, “really excited for Kyle.

Kyle has been basically in a situation because of the staff change at Oklahoma State, he’s been overqualified doing what he’s doing here. It’s great seeing him to get back on the road (recruiting as full-time assistant).”

Self said he did not know if he’d replace Keller at KU. “If we do (get somebody)

we could use somebody that is very computer savvy and certainly hungry and really wants to learn and grow. I’m not sure we have to do anything. I’m going to wait and evaluate and see where we need to go as we go through the summer,” Self said. ●

Collins in Puerto Rico: Former KU guard Sherron Collins, who was released by the NBA’s Charlotte Bobcats last winter, has signed with Puerto Rican pro team Piratas de Quebradillas for the rest of the season. ●

Say what?: Marcus Morris had the Internet buzzing with a quote he provided to the San Francisco Chronicle after Monday’s workout with the Golden State Warriors.

“I think there's a little buzz that I'm more than advertised,” Morris said. “At Kansas, you're really restricted from showing your game. I think a lot of teams are surprised that I’m better than they expected. I’m not afraid of going to a workout, because I don't feel like there’s anything I can’t do.”

Lest anybody think the talkative, ever-quotable Morris has anything against KU, he also told nba.com he felt “privileged to play at Kansas (where) Danny Manning was a mentor to me. He helped me a lot, made me successful playing the 4 (power forward) and helped me with everything.”

Marcus was asked by Milwaukee WSSP radio who will be better when all is said and done: the Morris twins or the NBA’s Lopez brothers?

“Is that a trick question?

Not to take anything away from those guys. I think they are great players. I just think me and Markieff have been through a little bit more,” Marcus said. “I think we have different aspects of our game that are just a little bit more than those two. They are both just strictly centers, so there’s not too much they could do as far as stretching the defense and creating open shots off the dribble and things like that. I think me and Markieff both can really do that real well, so at the end of the day I think me and Markieff are probably going to better.”

New food guidelines intended to simplify healthy eating Q: A:

Is the Food Pyramid really changing?

Yes it is, and the first impressions from individuals that I’ve come in contact with since it was released Thursday are “thumbs up.” Originally identified in the Child Obesity Task Force report, which noted that simple, actionable advice for consumers is needed, MyPlate will replace the MyPyramid image as the government’s primary food group symbol as an easy-to-understand visual cue to help consumers adopt healthy eating habits consistent with the 2010 Dietary Guidelines for Americans.

First Lady Michelle Obama and Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack unveiled the federal government’s new food icon June 2.

MyPlate is to serve as a reminder to help consumers make healthier food choices.

grilling utensils. Because we’re brilliant like that.

Luckily, Mr. Meat and Potatoes remembered there was a grilling basket in the garage, and frankly, this was the perfect application for it.

He just laid all the fish inside after spraying it with cooking spray, and fastened the top on snugly so the fish wouldn’t jostle in there. Three minutes per side for the fish on the grill, and it was perfection.

But my favorite part of this meal, the thing I’m still thinking about and want to have every night, was the salad. I started by rinsing the greens and drying them, and then I sliced up a handful of strawberries. I threw in a few rings of red onion, thinly sliced and a handful of cashews. I cut five large basil leaves in a chiffonade and tossed it in too.

For the dressing, I had my heart set on a fresh-tasting lemony vinaigrette, and this is what I came up with. I have to say, I could almost just drink this stuff, it is so good.

BRIEFLY Comment on medical records access If you’ve ever wondered who’s been looking at your health records, you’ll soon be able to find out.

Federal health officials announced last week that they want to give people the right to get a report on who has electronically accessed their protected health information. And they’re seeking public comment on the change.

“This proposed rule represents an important step in our continued efforts to promote accountability across the health care system, ensuring that providers properly safeguard private health information,” said Georgina Verdugo, director of the Office of Civil Rights at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.

The new MyPlate icon emphasizes the fruit, vegetable, grains, protein and dairy food groups.

As the First Lady stated during the press conference, “This is a quick, simple reminder for all of us to be more mindful of the foods that we’re eating and as a mom, I can already tell how much this is going to help parents across the country.

When mom or dad comes home from a long day of work, we’re already asked to be a chef, a referee, a cleaning crew. So it’s tough to be a nutritionist, too. But we do have time to take a look at our kids’ plates. As long as they’re half full of fruits and vegetables, and paired with lean proteins, whole grains and low-fat dairy, we’re golden. That’s how easy it is.”

launched in January of this year, form the basis of the federal government’s nutrition education programs, federal nutrition assistance programs and dietary advice provided by health and nutrition professionals.

Making food choices for a healthy lifestyle can be as simple as using these 10 Tips: ● Balance calories — Find out how many calories YOU need for a day as a first step in managing your weight. Go to the website listed above to find your calorie level. Being physically active also helps you bal-

ance calories. ● Enjoy your food, but eat less — Take the time to fully enjoy your food as you eat it. Eating too fast or when your attention is elsewhere may lead to eating too many calories. Pay attention to hunger and fullness cues before, during, and after meals. Use them to recognize when to eat and when you’ve had enough. ● Avoid oversized portions — Use a smaller plate, bowl, and glass. Portion out foods before you eat. When eating out, choose a smaller size option, share a dish, or take home part of your meal. ● Foods to eat more often — Eat more vegetables, fruits, whole grains and fat-free or 1 percent milk and dairy products. These foods have the nutrients you need for health — including potassium, calcium, vitamin D and fiber. Make them the basis for meals and snacks. ● Make half your plate fruits and vegetables — Choose red, orange and dark-green vegetables like

tomatoes, sweet potatoes and broccoli, along with other vegetables for your meals. Add fruit to meals as part of main or side dishes or as dessert. ● Switch to fat-free or low-fat (1%) milk — They have the same amount of calcium and other essential nutrients as whole milk, but fewer calories and less saturated fat. ● Make half your grains whole grains — To eat more whole grains, substitute a whole-grain product for a refined product — such as eating whole-wheat bread instead of white bread or brown rice instead of white rice. ● Foods to eat less often — Cut back on foods high in solid fats, added sugars and salt. They include cakes, cookies, ice cream, candies, sweetened drinks, pizza and fatty meats like ribs, sausages, bacon and hot dogs. Use these foods as occasional treats, not everyday foods. ● Compare sodium in

foods — Use the Nutrition Facts label to choose lower sodium versions of foods like soups, breads, and frozen meals. Select canned foods labeled “low sodium,” ”reduced sodium” or “no salt added.” ● Drink water instead of sugary drinks — Cut calories by drinking water or unsweetened beverages.

Soda, energy drinks and sports drinks are a major source of added sugar and calories, in American diets.

LEHRMAN FAMILY HOMESTEAD 2409 BROOKSIDE DRIVE Want to know just exactly how much food you can grow on a typical quarteracre lot?

The Lehrman family details the possibilities with a sprawling garden that has produced more than 1,000 pounds of food each year for the last three years.

“The past three years, it’s been 1,200, 1,200 and 1,500 that’s we’ve harvested off the lot, though it’s a standard quarter-acre suburban lawn.

It’s square, a corner lot, so our garden is the entire front

yard on two sides,” Lehrman says. “We have over 30 different kinds of vegetables and we have over 100 different plants growing on the lot. Multiple kinds of perennial plants — berries and fruit.”

Lehrman says the family grows 30 to 40 percent of their own food, something they decided to do after learning about the self-sustainability group Path to Freedom in Pasadena, Calif.

“About 5 years ago, my husband and I were looking at whether we should move to the country or stay where we are,” she says. “We got inspired by what they were doing and decide to see how much we could do of country stuff in town. And so, we’ve done quite a bit.”

ment with companion planting, which (means) you plant certain plants together that benefit either the soil or they prevent certain pests or they attract beneficial bugs,” says Hale, who does most of her cooking from scratch and has learned how to use as much of each harvested plant as possible. “So, we’ve been experimenting with that and trying to see what will work, if it works.”

Not just a food source, the garden is also providing educational experiences for the couple’s three children, ages 12, 3 and 2 years.

“It is important to us that our children know how to grow their own food and how to make the most of the resources they have,” Hale says.

PINE TREE COMMUNITY GARDEN 149 PINECONE DRIVE Not every garden on the tour is at a single-resident lot or all-out farm. Not only are community gardens and school gardens on the tour, but there’s an in between — the garden at the Pine Tree Townhouses in East Lawrence.

In its second year, this garden is for the tenants of the townhouses and includes 14 plots the co-op’s residents can apply to use. The garden has not only used up empty space in the complex’s common area, but it also has helped build community by connecting residents says

Sweet Southern elixir seeps into scores of recipes

By Andrea Weigl McClatchy Newspapers

RALEIGH, N.C. — Sweet tea is no longer just a drink. It’s an ingredient that creative cooks have started using to flavor custards and pies or to brine chicken and pork.

It’s hard to say why Southerners’ favorite beverage is having a moment in the culinary spotlight. Maybe it’s because McDonald’s has been selling sweet tea nationwide for three years. Or maybe the popularity of sweet tea vodkas, including South Carolina-based Firefly, is inspiring cooks. Regardless, sweet tea has moved beyond its roots as a Southern staple.

“In the last two years, it’s becoming more and more prevalent,” says Martha Hall Foose, a Mississippi-based cookbook author who included a recipe for Sweet Tea Lemon Chess Pie in her cookbook, “Screened Doors and Sweet Tea.” Raleigh author Fred Thompson, who wrote a cookbook devoted to iced tea recipes, agrees: “They are using it for everything and anything.”

The cover of last month’s Southern Living was devoted to the topic and featured a photo of a sweet tea icebox tart. Inside were recipes for grilled shrimp salad with sweet tea vinaigrette, sweet tea rice, even sweet tea tiramisu.

Local chefs have toyed with tea. Ashley Christensen of Poole’s Diner in Raleigh uses tea and honey to brine pork shanks or unsweetened tea to marinate salmon or arctic char. James Beardaward-winning chef Ben Barker of Durham’s Magnolia Grill uses sweet tea to brine pork chops. And John Fleer of Canyon Kitchen in Cashiers, N.C., brines his chicken in sweet tea before frying it.

“What we love about tea is that briskness,” Christensen said. “To be able to introduce that into food is a very cool thing.”

Thompson says it’s no surprise that sweet tea is turning up as a way to marinate meat, fish and poultry.

“We’ve been using wine and acidic things to marinate meats,” he says. Teas and wines both have tannins, which introduce a smoky, savory flavor. He adds: “It offers a very mellow backdrop note, which is really cool right now — thanks to McDonald’s, I guess.”

SWEET TEA LEMON CHESS PIE For crust: 3 ounces cream cheese at room temperature 1/4 pound (1 stick) unsalted butter, at room temperature 1 1/4 cups unbleached all-purpose flour For filling: 1/2 pound (2 sticks) unsalted butter, at room temperature 2 cups granulated sugar Zest of 1 lemon 8 large egg yolks 3/4 cup warm, freshly brewed, strong orange pekoe tea 1 tablespoon vanilla extract 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice 2 tablespoons unbleached all-purpose flour 2 teaspoons cornmeal

Directions: Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Mix cream cheese and butter in a bowl with an electric mixer until well-combined.

Add flour and mix at low speed until the dough comes together into a ball. Pat the dough evenly into a 9-inch pie pan, building a thicker top edge. Place the pie shell in the freezer while preparing the filling.

Beat butter in a bowl with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Gradually beat in sugar.

Beat in zest. Add egg yolks one at a time, mixing well after each addition and scraping the bowl often. Slowly add tea, vanilla, vinegar and lemon juice. Add flour and cornmeal.

Scrape the bowl and mix well.

Don’t be alarmed if the mix-

ture looks slightly curdled.

Remove pie shell from freezer and pour in the filling.

Bake until only a quarter-sized area in the center jiggles slightly when the pie is shaken gently, about 50 minutes. Cool to room temperature on a wire rack and then chill at least 2 hours before serving. Yield: 8 slices — From Martha Hall Foose as seen in “The Southern Foodways Alliance Community Cookbook” (The University of Georgia Press, 2011.)

SWEET TEA BRINED CHICKEN 4 cups water 2 family-sized tea bags 1/2 cup firmly packed light brown sugar 1/4 cup kosher salt 1 small sweet onion, thinly sliced 1 lemon, thinly sliced 3 garlic cloves, halved 2 (6-inch) fresh rosemary sprigs 1 tablespoon freshly cracked pepper 2 cups ice cubes 1 (3 1/2 to 4 pound) cut-up whole chicken

Directions: Bring water to a boil in a 3-quart heavy saucepan; add tea bags.

Remove from heat; cover and steep 10 minutes. Discard tea bags.

Stir in sugar, salt, onion, lemon, garlic, rosemary and pepper. Stir until sugar dissolves. Cool completely, about 45 minutes. Stir in ice. Mixture should be cold before adding chicken.

Place tea mixture and chicken in a large zip-top plastic freezer bag; seal. Place bag in a shallow baking dish and chill 24 hours. Remove chicken from marinade, discarding marinade; pat chicken dry with paper towels.

Light one side of grill, heating to 300 to 350 degrees; leave other side unlit. Place chicken, skin side down, over unlit side, and grill, covered with grill lid, 40 to 50 minutes until done. Transfer chicken,

skin side down, to lit side of grill, and grill 2 to 3 minutes or until skin is crispy. Let stand 5 minutes before serving. Yield: 6-8 servings.

TEA CUSTARD 2 cups half-and-half 2 tablespoons fragrant loose tea, such as jasmine, or 1 1/2 tea bags 3 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons granulated sugar, plus more for dusting 2 large eggs 2 large egg yolks 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, for greasing ramekins Light brown sugar, for garnish

Directions: Bring a kettle of water to a boil. Place half-andhalf into a small saucepan and bring it almost to a boil over medium heat, stirring frequently.

Place loose tea or tea bags in the bottom of a small saucepan and pour a splash of boiling water to soften tea leaves. Add sugar and stir.

Remove half-and-half from heat when it begins to froth and simmer. Pour it over the sugar and tea. Stir twice, cover the pan and place it in the refrigerator or freezer to cool to room temperature, about 30 minutes. Strain the loose tea or remove the tea bags.

Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Grease six 6-ounce ramekins with butter and dust them with sugar.

Whisk 2 whole eggs and 2 egg yolks briskly in a medium bowl, until uniformly lemonyellow in color. Stir in tea mixture until just blended.

Strain mixture through a fine-mesh strainer and pour into ramekins. Place ramekins in a large baking pan and carefully pour hot water into the pan to reach halfway up their sides. Bake for 40 minutes, until custards appear firm and a knife or toothpick inserted in the center comes away clean.

Remove pan from the oven and the ramekins from the

he Lawrence Food Garden tour is going halvsies.

This Saturday, the third-annual tour of private and community food gardens around Lawrence will welcome visitors during the coolest part of the day — 9 a.m. to noon and again from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m.

It’s a split designed not only to avoid the scorching afternoon heat, but also to allow tourists a way to get to all 19 of the gardens.

Among the stops this year are gardens of all sizes and ages, from first-year raised beds to the more extensive foodselling operations.

“Our goal has always been to demonstrate the full range of food-grow-

ing possibilities,” says co-founder Amber Lehrman. “So, from the very first year, we tried to get a variety of community gardens, a variety of home gardens — small, medium and large.

And as the tour’s grown, we’ve tried to get more commercial gardens, because there are a few commercial gardens inside the city limits.

Then, of course, the school gardens have started up in the last couple of years.

“We make a deliberate effort to reach a wide cross-section of gardens that are out there.”

Here’s a look at a few of this year’s gardens and the gardeners who tend them below and on page 9B. — Sarah Henning

Food gardens on display throughout Lawrence KIRSTEN BOSNAK’S MOONFARM GARDEN 646 WALNUT ST. Art and food collide in Kirsten Bosnak’s North Lawrence garden. Bosnak has the traditional raised beds, but she also has what she lovingly refers to as her “Medicine Wheel Garden.”

“There is a large central circle garden and pathways going out the four directions and I have four quarter-circular beds around the center with medicinal plants in there,” Bosnak says of the 25-foot by 55-foot garden.

“And I also used the remainder of the four quadrants of that bed to build up mounded beds in amorphous shapes using the sod that came from the initial till of the bed. I just mounded up those piles of sod, covered them with newspaper and straw and used those as planting beds for annual

vegetables, tomatoes, peppers and basil and other things.”

The artistic feel to the garden goes beyond the beauty the medicine wheel provides. Bosnak says eventually, she’ll probably eliminate her lawn entirely and give the whole lot to the coveted North Lawrence soil she calls “chocolate.”

“I’m very interested in doing artistic things with my garden, not just food production, which is the main thing, but I’m as interested in making it an artistic space,” Bosnak says. “I have this interesting fence, I have this interesting garden ... I am interested in laying the beds out in a way that you can walk within the space and enjoy being inside the space.”

KIRSTEN BOSNAK has created a garden area in her North Lawrence home that offers a variety of medicinal plants as well as a selection of vegetables.

he Great Stuke Move is under way, which means we are living in utter chaos. We packed up our kitchen rather early because I had a free evening and I had help and I took advantage of it.

But that means that cooking has gotten to be more and more challenging, as more and more items disappear from my shelves, and more and more boxes pile up around my kitchen and in the hallway. We gotta move soon, or we won’t be able to reach the sink.

Good thing it’s gotten warm out; our grill has been kept hot. It’s been loaded with some pretty interesting things, since I have refused to buy us any more groceries except those that the baby has to have. The less food I move, the better.

“THE FLYING FORK”

a blog by Megan Stuke have-and-no-cooking-utensils meals we’ve had of late.

I had a bag of tilapia in the freezer, leftover from the fish taco experiment, so I decided to use them up. There’s always a bag of potatoes laying around, and recently a friend had bestowed upon me a lovely bag of mixed spring greens from her garden.

That was enough to set my mouth a-watering and call Mr. Meat and Potatoes to start a fire in the Weber.

For the fish, I just put together a

mix of blackening spices:

FISH SPICE 2 teaspoons cayenne 1 tablespoon salt 2 teaspoon black pepper 2 teaspoon garlic powder 2 teaspoon lemon pepper 2 teaspoon paprika 2 teaspoon oregano 1 teaspoon onion powder

(I probably ended up doubling this volume because I cooked 6 pieces of fish.)

I just gave all the fish a liberal coating with the stuff, and set it aside. ●

Then I started on some easy hobo potatoes, which is sort of my go-to starch when I don’t want to heat up the stove or oven at all.

First, I slice a few potatoes very thinly, and arrange them in the center of a piece of aluminum foil large enough to form a pouch.

Only put one potato worth of slices in each pouch, or they will take too long to cook on the grill.

For this simple meal, I just gave them a liberal shake of kosher salt, cracked black pepper and rosemary. Then I dotted with butter, probably a tablespoon per potato.

This can be varied depending on the meal. Dice up some jalapenos and onions with them or add some shredded cheddar or a few whole cloves of garlic — whatever makes your toes curl.

Pull the sides of the aluminum foil up around the potatoes and align the edges, then fold them down to seal. Then pull the ends up and roll them tight. You don’t want to just “wrap” the foil around because you don’t want the melted butter to escape the pouch.

Mr. Meat and Potatoes puts these on the edges of our Weber grill over indirect heat and turns them every five or 10 minutes to

The thinner your slice, the shorter the cook time, but it usually takes ours about 25 minutes on indirect heat to be good and soft but not mushy. Obviously, the potatoes will take longer than the fish, so put them on the fire sufficiently early.

Dear Frustrated: We’re surprised Bob’s caregiver hasn’t called the authorities to report the filth. There’s not much you can do for someone who refuses help. Perhaps you or a group of friends can offer to send over a cleaning service if Jamie is amenable and you can afford it. Beyond that, please talk to her and express your concern without judgment or accusation. Suggest that she look into low-cost counseling for herself so she can develop better coping

'Locked Up Abroad' mimics 'Goodfellas' saga When in doubt, make a movie based on another movie. Movie remakes, movies based on TV shows and sequels make up a depressing percentage of summer fare.

Over the years, we've even seen movies based on old documentaries. The 2003 drama "Seabiscuit" comes to mind.

And lately the highly addictive series "Locked Up Abroad" (9 p.m., National Geographic) has begun to base hour-long episodes on famous movies. Last season, it explored some of the untold avenues of the tale of drug smuggling in Turkey that was turned into one of the most harrowing prison pictures ever made. And "Locked Up Abroad: Midnight Express" (8 p.m., National Geographic) repeats tonight.

But that's just an appetizer for "Locked Up Abroad: The Real Goodfella" (9 p.m., National Geographic), based on the twisted tale of mobster-turned-informant Henry Hill.

Hill appears here in many interview scenes and promises to fill us in on some of the details that didn't make it into Martin Scorsese's acclaimed 1990 gangster picture "Goodfellas." But at least 80 percent of this "Locked Up Abroad" unfolds like a reenactment of Scorsese's movie. At least it never tries to imitate the famous tracking shot through the Copa's kitchen!

In striving so obviously to recreate scenes from a classic movie, "Locked Up Abroad" forgot one rather important thing. Not one second of this "Locked Up Abroad" takes place abroad. ● For better or worse, the series "Through the Wormhole with Morgan Freeman" (Science) tackles rather complex scientific concepts and invites viewers to tag along. It's challenging stuff and never sugarcoated or dumbed-down for those with straying attention spans. While watching this show I was reminded that when you take out time for commercials, an hour-long "Wormhole" runs roughly as long as a high school science class. I have to admit I watched the clock a few times.

On tonight's new "Wormhole" (9 p.m.), scientists examine brain activity to ponder questions about life after death.

Repeats question the nature of matter (7 p.m.) and examine theories about just what preceded the Big Bang (8 p.m.). ● If "Wormhole" is aimed at the smart kids, "MythBusters" (8 p.m., Discovery) makes science fun for the rest of us.

Tonight's new installment examines the belief — extolled on screen and in cartoons — that a fishing reel can catch fire if unspooled at sufficient speed by a fastescaping fish. Another holy grail explored: the quest to change a flat tire without using a spare.

Tonight’s other highlights ● "So You Think You Can Dance" (7 p.m., Fox) offers two hours of competition. ● "How the States Got Their Shapes" (7 p.m., History) explains Idaho's curious border with Montana. ● Gay and transgender folks from all walks of life discuss their stories on "Out in America" (7 p.m., PBS). ● On two episodes of "Modern Family" (ABC), speeding in a residential zone (8 p.m.), musical theater madness (8:30 p.m.). ● A bomber targets schools on "Criminal Minds: Suspect Behavior" (9 p.m., CBS). ● "20/20" (9 p.m., ABC) mulls reality television.

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS For Wednesday, June 8: This year, you sense an unusual amount of conflict surrounding you. If you listen, you might find a common theme or thread. Perhaps you are giving off mixed signals. If you are single, you meet people with ease, though it could be difficult this year to form a long-term bond. If you are attached, the two of you need lots of downtime together to deepen the bond and each other's understanding of one another. Virgo can be touchy.

The Stars Show the Kind of Day You'll Have: 5Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult Aries (March 21-April 19) ★★★ What happens today could be more significant than you might want to realize. Your ability to handle a boss or authority figure comes into play.

Tonight: Go with a surprise.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) ★★★★★ Your creativity seems to come up each time there is an issue, and in between, too! Sometimes you are misunderstood. Tonight: Know that you are lucky.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) ★★★ If you can, work from home. You are over-

whelmed by everything that is occurring. Think in terms of new possibilities if you feel hemmed in.

Tonight: Don't be overly concerned with anything.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) ★★★★ Your ability to accomplish a lot could be marred by a misunderstanding. Unfortunately, you might need to redo some work. Tonight: Catch up with a pal.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) ★★★ Keep your foot on the brake when dealing with finances. You might not be ready for a commitment of this nature.

Tonight: Your treat.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) ★★★★ You certainly might feel empowered, no matter what you do or which way you proceed.

You could be thrown a little off by someone's behavior.

Tonight: As you like.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) ★★★ Be careful when dealing with family. The confusion that surrounds you forces more questions.

Don't take others' inquiries personally. Tonight: Vanish while you can.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) ★★★★★ Stay on top of activities. Friendship plays a big role in creating more of what you want. Others favor you in general and are willing to give a project

that extra push. Tonight: Extend a special invitation.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22Dec. 21) ★★★★ Pressure builds with a boss or higher-up.

Understanding comes through confusion. Try not to be as reactive or challenging. Tonight: A midweek break. Be naughty and nice.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) ★★★★★ Detach, and you will succeed. If you become reactive to the present confusion, you will tumble into the same mire that everyone else does.

Tonight: Movie night.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) ★★★★ You demonstrate the ability to relate deeply to a particular friend. Understand what this person expects. Don't get plugged into a situation and become reactive.

Tonight: Invite a friend to join you.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) ★★★★ Others come forward with lots of information. The confusion that surrounds you could change if you can stay calm, cool and collected.

Tonight: Hang out.

D e a r A n n i e : My best friend, “Jamie,” lives five hours away. She and her husband, “Bob,” are both disabled. Jamie has several chronic illnesses that leave her in pain and exhausted most of the time. Bob weighs about 500 pounds and is immobile and bedridden.

They have two teenaged children who are also obese.

I recently visited and was appalled to see their living conditions. What used to be messy has devolved into absolute filth — dirty clothes, papers, half-empty soda cans, candy wrappers, dirty dishes and spilled food, topped off with cat urine and feces. I was horrified and disgusted.

Jamie’s husband and children treat her like an indentured servant. Bob has a caregiver during the day, but relies on Jamie at night. And he is impatient and surly. The kids whine for Mommy when they can’t find things, and they claim to be too “exhausted” to lift a finger. The weekend I was there, the kids did nothing but eat, sleep, sulk, whine and play computer games.

They are two of the laziest humans I have ever met and are totally self-involved.

Bob and the kids don’t care a wit about wallowing in filth.

I have watched them drop food and garbage on the floor and walk away. Jamie has
