Columnist: Men need to ‘step up’ By Joe Preiner jpreiner@ljworld.com

PULITZER PRIZE-WINNING COLUMNIST LEONARD PITTS JR. of the Miami Herald speaks to about 100 people attending his lecture “In the Measure of a Man” on Tuesday as part of the Dad Days events sponsored by Dads of Douglas County.

Pulitzer Prize-winning columnist Leonard Pitts Jr. spoke Tuesday evening about what it means to be a man. As a son, father, stepfather and grandfather, he knows a thing or two. The syndicated writer was invited to Lawrence to speak during the second year of Dad Days events, sponsored by Dads of Douglas County. Pitts, who works for the Miami Herald, took the stage at Liberty Memorial Central Middle School’s auditorium in front of more than 100 people. Many in attendance follow Pitts’ column, including Eudora resident Marcellus Jones. “One of my English professors at

KU turned me on to one of his writings, and I followed him periodically throughout the years,” Jones said. “That was 11 years ago.” Jones was not the only fan. Paul and Annie Stevens also waited to hear the columnist speak. “It gives me goosebumps sometimes when I read his writing,” Paul said. “It’s very challenging and intelligent.” Pitts used his wit and gift with words to explain to the audience the difference between being a man and being a father. He told life stories to illustrate his points. Please see PITTS, page 4A

More space for public safety departments discussed By George Diepenbrock gdiepenbrock@ljworld.com

Lawrence city leaders Tuesday talked about approaching other Douglas County public safety agencies about their space needs as they discussed potential for a new law enforcement facility several years down the road. The discussion came amid a City Commission study session about the Lawrence Police Department’s budget, as Chief Tarik Khatib has said the department needs more officers and would like to avoid being split between two facilities downtown and in west Lawrence. “I think the police department needs a 21st-century facility,” City Manager

David Corliss said. “They’re not in one at either of their locations now.” Currently, the department is largely split between its patrol division downtown in the same building as Douglas County District Court, and the Douglas County Sheriff’s operations division and its investigations and most administration at the Investigations and Training Center, 4820 Bob Billings Parkway, in a building originally designed as a laboratory. Commissioners largely said they would be wary of putting up money for major maintenance work in the west Lawrence building and instead talked about a five- to seven-year plan for a new law enforcement facility. Corliss mentioned a similar process about helping to build the new

Lawrence-Douglas County Fire Medical station near the intersection of 19th and Iowa streets, but he said there were no specific plans yet for a new police facility. City commissioners asked staff members to approach the sheriff ’s office and Kansas University Public Safety Office specifically to gauge interest in a joint law enforcement building over the next couple months. City commissioners also asked for much more specific information about the current police facilities. The facilities questions were one major part of the police budget discussion, but no decisions were made during Tuesday’s study session.

TOPEKA — Kansas classrooms are losing teachers in record numbers, a report released Tuesday shows, and that is due to cuts to schools and changes in the public employee pension system, education officials said. “There are a tremendous number of attacks going on against teachers today,” said State Board of Education Chairman David Dennis, a Republican from Wichita. Dennis said low pay, increased pension costs and a push by Republican leaders to try to replace the current pension system and switch to a 401(k)-style plan are all factors. “If I was in college right now looking at what I want to do with the rest of my life, I am not sure I would chose teaching as a profession,” said Dennis, who is a public school teacher. In addition, the budget SCHOOLS signed into law earlier this month by Gov. Sam Brownback will cut school funding by about $100 million, according to the Kansas Association of School Boards. Base state aid will decrease $232 per student, to a 10-year low of $3,780 per student. The new report showed dramatic increases in teacher retirements and layoffs — called reductions in force — in Kansas over the last two years when public school funding has been cut. More than 1,500 teachers retired in the 2010-11 school year, as compared with a range of 1,028 to 1,092 over each of the four previous years, the report said. Reductions in force totaled 350 this school year and 260 last year. The previous three years had reductions in force of 49, 21 and 7. The statistics were in a report presented to the State Board of Education. And officials said those numbers may be low because they were collected in February. Pamela Coleman, director of teacher education and licensure at the Kansas Department of Education, said teacher retirements have increased because “people wanted to retire to ensure that KPERS (Kansas Public Employees Retirement System) would be there in their retirement.” — Statehouse reporter Scott Rothschild can be reached at 785-423-0668.

Review ahead for retail tax break option By Mark Fagan mfagan@ljworld.com

A plan that would add Olive Garden to the menu of retail offerings along South Iowa Street will get a hearing before an administrative committee that weighs applications for tax incentives, Mayor Aron Cromwell said Tuesday. At issue is what developers are calling an “essential” component of the project: using a share of increased property taxes to help finance what would be a private development, one envisioned for the northeast corner of 27th and Iowa streets. Called into duty will be the Public Incentives Review Committee, which typically assesses potential tax abatements for multimillion-dollar industrial, warehouse or bioscience projects often expected to generate hundreds of jobs. But Tuesday night, members of the Lawrence City Commission found themselves mulling whether a less-prominent public incentive — the Please see CITY, page 2A

Neighborhood Revitalization Act, thus far used only twice in town — would be appropriate for helping draw a national chain restaurant to a commercial corridor that already is home to the city’s largest retailers and several other national chain restaurants. Cromwell, who serves on the review committee, said that the committee’s upcoming review would hinge on a number of variables that need further study. Among them: claims that an Olive Garden at the corner would generate $5 million in annual sales and that the restaurant would “cannibalize” relatively few sales from existing restaurants and other retailers. Staffers still have work to do on their analyses, Cromwell said, and a date for the review committee’s meeting has yet to be set. Once reviewed, the development plan would go the City Commission for a decision. Cromwell, for one, remains unsure about whether or how the city should invest in retail projects. “I haven’t made up my mind on that yet,” Cromwell said, after Tuesday night’s meeting at City Hall. “I don’t think that it’s an easy decision. We have to make sure that we’re using our tools wisely. We are talking about the public’s money.” Among his fellow commissioners, only Commissioner Bob Schumm — himself a restaurateur, as owner of Buffalo Bob’s Smokehouse and the Dynamite Saloon downtown — indicated a clear direction on the issue Tuesday night. His take: Such incentives should be reserved only for truly “unique” projects, ones that couldn’t occur otherwise. On Iowa Street, he said, plenty of other retailers have

opened or made upgrades without tax assistance: ● Walmart, 3300 Iowa, acquired the former Payless Cashways, then swapped property with Crown Automotive to make room for an expanded Supercenter. ● Freddy’s Frozen Custard, at the northeast corner of 23rd and Iowa streets, replaced the former Sheridan’s Frozen Custard. ● Discovery Furniture, 2525 Iowa, moved into the former home of Food 4 Less. “I have a real philosophical problem using taxpayer money to support a chain restaurant on Iowa Street,” said Schumm, appointed Tuesday night by Cromwell to serve on the review committee. “I don’t think this act, the Neighborhood Revitalization Act, is designed to bring in chain competition to Lawrence, Kansas, at the taxpayers’ expense.” Specific financial details of the plan to attract Olive Garden have not been disclosed, but the revitalization act would permit the developers to use at least some of the increased property taxes generated by the project to help finance the project itself. The city and other taxing jurisdictions would still receive at least as much tax revenue as the site generates now; only portions of the increased tax revenues, or increment, would be available for private use. The corner is a former home of Mazzio’s Pizza, plus a former Chinese restaurant. Commissioners decided Tuesday night to discuss the Neighborhood Revitalization Act and other public incentives during an upcoming commission meeting. The goal: Determine whether commissioners want to tighten standards or set clear guidelines for the use of such incentives.

Police Khatib also said he believed the department needed to add 17 patrol positions to handle its current workload and work to reduce crime. “We’ve got the immediate needs now, and I’d like to try to get a forward movement on some things,” Khatib said. “Obviously we’ve got the budget issues to deal with as well. That’s a choice you guys are going to have to make.” Corliss said among adding positions citywide, one of the greatest needs is among patrol officers. As part of the commissioner’s 2012 budget, Khatib has requested $1.2 million from the commission to add 10 patrol officers, a detective, three sergeants and some equipment. It would amount to a 1.4-mill increase to the city’s property tax rate, or $32 per year more annually for the owner of a $200,000 home. The chief also said Lawrence’s crime rate is higher than some comparable communities and that a recent survey of 28 comparable cities across the nation show Lawrence officers are handing a high volume of calls per officer. Mayor Aron Cromwell said the department has also received high marks from the community in city surveys, which also likely means the department has high expectations to live up to. “I believe we are in a safe community, but there are things that we should be doing to ensure that safety and increase that safety for the future,” Cromwell said. “That’s what we’re here to talk about.” — Reporter George Diepenbrock can be reached at 832-7144.

Lawrence city commissioners approved projects to rebuild and repave roads, and also to seek state assistance financing a couple of others. Commissioners approved plans to: ● Apply for state financing that would help up to two projects envisioned for 2013, if approved by the Kansas Department of Transportation: Adding a left-turn lane for traffic on Sixth Street, turning south onto Iowa Street; and adding double left-turn lanes for traffic heading east and west on 23rd Street and Clinton Parkway at Iowa. ● Hiring King’s Construction Co. Inc., for $637,311, this summer to rebuild the lanes used by traffic heading west on Bob Billings Parkway, from Kasold to Crestline drives. ● Hiring Sunflower Paving for $1.2 million this summer to repave Sixth Street from Iowa to Massachusetts streets and install a “right-turn lane bus turn-out” at Maine Street and at Michigan Street. ● Hiring R.D. Johnson Excavating Co. Inc. for $1.3 million to handle the second phase of the city’s annual program to repave residential and arterial streets, and to repair and replace curbs and gutters. Work will include Tennessee Street, from Ninth to 19th streets, and Kasold Drive, from Peterson to Trail roads.

Judge Scott Miller’s place in case of absence, illness or scheduling conflict — to be paid up to $250 a day, up from the limit of $50 per day that has been in place since at least 1979. Miller took over for Randy McGrath, who retired earlier this year after more than a dozen years on the municipal bench.

KUMC gets $19.8M grant

1 | WASHINGTON, D.C.

V.P. hopeful about more than $1T in cuts Even as Vice President Joe Biden gave his most optimistic assessment yet of budget talks he’s leading, President Barack Obama’s Democratic allies in the Senate signaled Tuesday a harder line on Medicare. That stance is complicating any effort to produce a deal to cut the deficit by $2 trillion or more over the coming decade or so. Biden said that he’s confident that the talks will produce an agreement on cutting the deficit “well beyond” $1 trillion over 10 to 12 years. The talks are aimed at finding spending cuts to accompany mustdo legislation allowing the government to continue to borrow to finance its operations and avoid defaulting on U.S. bonds. Senate Democrats promised that any Medicare cuts in the measure would come from health care providers rather than cutting back benefits. The hard line came even as Republicans showed at least some willingness to kill special interest tax breaks this year with a vote on ending the annual $5 billion ethanol tax subsidy. 1 | WASHINGTON, D.C.

New rules will clarify sunscreen claims Help is on the way to consumers confused by the jumble of sun protection numbers, symbols and other claims on sunscreens. Starting next summer, consumers can start looking for SPF 15 bottles with the label “broad spectrum” and feel confident they’re being protected from an increased risk of cancer. Currently, standards of protection apply only to one part of the sun’s spectrum, ultraviolet B rays, which cause sunburn. Under new rules published Tuesday, they will also have to protect against the more penetrating ultraviolet A rays associated with skin cancer. The guidelines, which spent more than 30 years in bureaucratic limbo, are designed to enhance the effectiveness of sunscreens and make them easier to use.

Wildfire may be largest in Ariz. history An enormous wildfire in eastern Arizona is poised to become the largest in state history, as firefighters tried Tuesday to keep the blaze from crossing into New Mexico and devouring a small mountain town. Fires also grew elsewhere in New Mexico and at the state’s border with Colorado, where flames forced the closure of a busy interstate highway. In Luna, N.M., evacuation plans are in place for the roughly 200 residents. Crews have been working to protect the town for days, hacking down brush, using chain saws to cut trees and setting small fires to burn anything that the approaching flames could use as fuel. 3 | LIBYA

NATO continues airstrikes on Tripoli NATO resumed its airstrikes on the Libyan capital of Tripoli late Tuesday, blasting at least two targets just before midnight, after military leaders voiced concerns about sustaining the operations if the alliance mission drags on. The targets of the late night airstrikes were not immediately clear, and there was no word about casualties. East of the capital, alliance aircraft have begun dropping leaflets warning government troops to abandon their posts outside Zlitan, which lies just west of the rebel-held port city of Misrata. Rebel forces have been advancing along the Mediterranean coast toward Zlitan, but say they have been instructed by NATO to withdraw ahead of expected bombing runs to old front lines in Dafniya.

The best-laid military plans can go awry, especially when they’re buffeted by sandstorms, political winds and unexpected twists of fate. Kevin Benson learned that first-hand as the chief Army planner of the 2003 invasion of Iraq, an experience he recounted Tuesday at Kansas University’s Dole Institute of Politics. As he planned for his own “D-Day” — March 19, 2003, the start of the invasion — Benson was “absolutely convinced” Saddam Hussein would bombard American troops with chemical weapons. He could not know there were no such weapons hidden in Iraq’s west desert. He could not predict how the Iraqi military would dis-

Ex-Utah governor to enter GOP race Former Utah Gov. Jon Huntsman, a Republican who served as President Barack Obama’s ambassador to China until this spring, is running for president in hopes of defeating Obama. “I intend to announce my candidacy for the presidency of the United States of America a week from today,” Huntsman said Tuesday during a discussion about China policy in New York with former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger. The Republican is planning an event to mark his entry into the race on June 21 at Liberty State Park in New Jersey, with the Statue of Liberty in the background, according to officials familiar with Huntsman’s thinking. They spoke on condition of anonymity because his schedule had not been announced.

ners have to give “politically aware” advice to civilian officials, he said. He returned to Iraq last fall to help plan the military’s exit, scheduled to wrap up by the end of this year. It’s a mammoth task to move 50,000 soldiers and 70,000 contractors through a single Kuwaiti seaport while turning over 83 bases to the Iraqis. But Benson’s confident the transition is going well, despite a recent uptick in violence he attributed to militants wanting to appear to drive the Americans out. The talk was the first of five Benson will host at KU, where he recently earned a doctorate in history.

Meanwhile, he dealt with civilian leaders who expected the war to pay for itself with oil funds and who told him to plan to reduce forces to zero by September 2003. The Lansing resident and former director of advanced military studies at Fort Leavenworth acknowledged that policy decisions sometimes upset a planner’s complex calculations. The insurgency might not have happened without the disbanding of the Iraqi army, he argued. “Yes, it is frustrating, but military off icers have to remember that’s the way it works,” Benson said. “War is an extension of policy by other means.” Knowing that, military plan-

“high hazard” flood control classification. For more than three years, a coalition of local, state and federal officials worked with the watershed district and neighboring property owners, who live north of Clinton Parkway, to come up with about $2.2 million to expand the dam, also known as the Yankee Tank Dam, 6 feet at the top and at the foot of it. When the dam was initially constructed in 1973 agricultural land surrounded it, but now that Lawrence has expanded to the west. A major flood could cause damage to the developed area, including Clinton Parkway and the KANSAS Kansas HighUNIVERSITY way 10 bypass. The Youth Sports Complex facilities are also nearby. The district had drained the lake in the past, but state officials said a major flood could still damage infrastructure south of the lake, including streets and roads. Mark Emert, an attorney representing Sport 2 Sport, including managing partner Roger Morningstar, said his clients were satisfied with the outcome. “That was a piece of land that Sport 2 Sport was happy to operate for a number of years,” Emert said. “But with the changes in the structure of that dam, it was going to render the use of property meaningless for what we wanted to do with it.” John Hamilton, the attorney for the watershed district, said officials were still working on acquiring easements from neighboring property owners.

structures. The district was hoping to wrap that process up by mid-August because it has a September deadline to accept a federal allocation for $1 million to assist with the project. Dick Stuntz, a district board member and president of Alvamar Inc., said Tuesday that 30 adjoining landowners had voluntarily chosen to become part of a benefit district and that district officials were still working to acquire small sections of easement from about 40 landowners primarily on the northeast and northwest sides of the lake. He said because of the short timeline, the district would likely seek eminent domain soon if property owners don’t respond to requests. Many large, luxurious houses line the hilltops around much of the lake. The lake does not have public access. “That’s a discussion for another day,” Stuntz said. Douglas County officials said the public interest in improvement of the dam comes from the protection of the nearby highways and infrastructure from a major flood. The state estimated Clinton Parkway and K-10 could sustain $8 million each in damage in a major flood. “The public interest was primarily to protect infrastructure and provide flood control,” County Commissioner Jim Flory said. — Reporter George Diepenbrock can be reached at 832-7144.

KUMC brought together several partners on the grant, including KU’s Lawrence and Wichita campuses, the University of Missouri-Kansas City and the Kansas City University of Medicine and Biosciences, along with several hospitals in Kansas and Missouri. The grant is designed to help generate more clinical and translational research across the country, the investigators said. It will take two main forms: ● The grant will provide infrastructure for scientists participating in research now, everything from additional staff to bricks and mortar for lab space. ● It will provide education and training for scientists interested in pursuing clinical and translational research opportunities. The grant funds would pay for up to 75 percent of these researchers’ salaries, freeing them from teaching and clinical obligations. “It’s a recognition that people weren’t going into this research as much as we would like,” Aaronson said. Clinical and translational research can take the form of helping a drug move from the lab to the bedside, or helping educate a community about new scientific knowledge about the effects of high blood pressure, the researchers said. Though the money will be given initially to KUMC, a committee with representatives from KU, UMKC and KCUMB will distribute the funds on a merit-based system from applications, Barohn said. Eight faculty members have been accepted for the education and training portion of the grant, which will begin next month. Most of the new Frontiers operations will be conducted at the new KU Clinical Research Center in Fairway, which is set to near the end of this year. That building is funded in part by the Johnson County Research Triangle sales tax.

In all, about 10 percent of the payments made by the agency’s Supplemental Security Income program were improper, said Patrick P. O’Carroll Jr., the inspector general for Social Security.

Reports indicate lower food prices, more hiring W A S H I N G T O N (AP ) — Some relief from high gas and food prices could be on the way. Wholesale food prices fell last month by the most in nearly a year, and gas prices keep dropping after peaking in May. A separate survey suggests CEOs are feeling more optimistic and will hire more in the second half of this year. It amounted to welcome news Tuesday after a rough patch that has stoked worries the economic recovery is slowing. More jobs and lower prices would both give Americans more money to spend on other things and rejuvenate economic growth. Food prices at the wholesale level fell 1.4 percent, the Labor Department said. It was the largest drop since last June. About 40 percent of that decline resulted from steep declines in vegetable and fruit prices. The drop in food prices followed harsh winter freezes, which had driven up prices of tomatoes and other vegetables in February. Even if prices don’t fall further, economists say they probably

won’t go much higher, at least. “That’s a good thing for consumers, and it’s even better that it comes in parallel with lower energy prices,” said Gregory Daco, U.S. economist at IHS Global Insight. Overall, the producer price index, which measures price changes before they reach the consumer, rose 0.2 percent in May. That’s much lower than April’s 0.8 percent gain and signals that inflation is in check. Gas prices at the wholesale level rose in May by the smallest amount in eight months. At the pump, they’re coming down. On Tuesday, the national average was $3.70 a gallon, according to AAA. Gas has fallen steadily since the national average almost hit $4 a gallon in early May. It’s still about a dollar more expensive than a year ago. For now, Americans remain cautious about spending. Another report Tuesday showed that retail sales fell 0.2 percent in May. It was the first decline in 11 months and came mostly because Americans bought fewer cars.

State ed. board begins 2012-13 budget talks By Scott Rothschild srothschild@ljworld.com

TOPEKA — School officials Tuesday loaded up for the next round of spending fights as the State Board of Education started budget talks. Board Chairman David Dennis, a Republican from Wichita and a school teacher, indicated he would push for an increase to make up for several years of school cuts. “I got a great education” as a child, Dennis said, and it was because “people sacrificed.” But Walt Chappell, also of Wichita, who recently switched back to the Republican Party, said he wanted a plan that the Legislature, which sets appropriations, wouldn’t ignore. The past two budget proposals from the board, he said, have been “dead on arrival.” He added, “I wonder if there is a more realistic way to put this budget together.” The 10-member board will make a budget recommendation at its next monthly meeting in July, which will then be submitted to Gov. Sam Brownback’s office. In January, Brownback will propose to the Legislature a budget that will include a proposal for the 2012-13 school year. School funding makes up about half the state budget,

and amid historic revenue shortfalls, classrooms have been cut. During the recently completed legislative session, the Legislature approved Brownback’s recommendation to decrease base state aid from $4,012 per student to $3,780 per student. Just to bring that figure back up to $4,012 per student would require $154.5 million — about the same amount of revenue a one-half cent state sales tax increase would generate. To increase base state aid to the 2008-09 level of $4,400 per student would cost $412.9 million. In addition, the state zeroed out funding for programs for teachers such as professional development and mentoring. Deputy Education Commissioner Dale Dennis told the board it has a difficult task in setting budget priorities. “These are tough decisions,” he said. Board member David Dennis conceded state leaders are in no mood to consider a tax increase, but he said in his discussions with students’ parents, they have indicated they are willing to pay more. He said it is the board’s responsibility to advocate for students and school districts. — Statehouse reporter Scott Rothschild can be reached at 785-423-0668.

Group opening prairie for public tour By Christine Metz cmetz@ljworld.com

With wildflower season in full bloom, the public is invited to visit a rare piece of native tall grass prairie. As part of its annual prairie appreciation day, the Grassland Heritage Foundation is opening the 140-acre Rachel Snyder Prairie for tours and restoration work. The event will be from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. June 25. The prairie is just south of Mayetta and about 17 miles north of Topeka. The nonprofit organization, which works toward prairie education and preservation, owns the Snyder Prairie, part of which is native prairie that has never been plowed. “There are not many opportunities any more to be able to see native tall grass prairies. Most of them have succumbed to the influence of either agriculture or development,” the organization’s president Angie Babbit said. “So it is kind of like going to see a precious gem.” The land also has sections of restored prairie and a forested area along a creek. This is the third year that the organization has hosted the prairie appreciation day.

“We have a group of volunteers who maintain Snyder Prairie, so it is a way to showcase all the hard work they put into it. As well as a way to appreciate the fact that we have a piece of native prairie in our midst that we can go visit and appreciate,” Babbit said. Starting at 9:30 am., board member Frank Norman will lead a walk through the prairie and share his knowledge of plants and land management. A light lunch will be provided around noon, and afterwards restoration work will begin. This year, volunteers will help paint fence posts to indicate that hunting is not allowed on the property. Babbit said that visitors should prepare for windy weather, sun and lots of bugs. They also are encouraged to bring cameras or sketch pads. To attend the event, RSVP to grasslandheritage@gmail.co m or by calling 840-8104.

KDHE issues health advisory for areas near Missouri River By Christine Metz cmetz@ljworld.com

As Kansas cities along the Missouri River prepare for flooding, the Kansas Department of Health and Environment issued a health advisory Tuesday for all portions of the Missouri River that flow through the state. The KDHE advises people to avoid contact with the river and to restrict pets and livestock from contacting the river until flooding conditions cease. The advisory could be in effect for weeks because it’s predicted that floodwaters might not recede for awhile. The KDHE’s primary concern is the existence of pathogens in the water, which can make people and animals sick. During flooding, pathogens come from surface water runoff or partially treated sewage. As the river floods, the KDHE anticipates that low-lying wastewater systems in Kansas and upstream from Kansas will become compromised. At that point, pathogens can

Shortly before dark Tuesday evening, students, teachers and community members began filling the rear parking lot of De Soto High School. They carried and lit candles of all shapes and sizes and began to share stories about one of their own. The stories all painted a picture of the same hardworking, athletic boy who always had a smile on his face. Bryan Allen Jessip, 18, died in a motorcycle accident Monday afternoon. More than 300 people attended the vigil organized by his classmates, and most scrawled messages on the yard signs Jessip used to promote his lawn care business. In addition to playing soccer and running cross country, Jessip was an entrepreneur and mechanic, and he was active in the youth group at Westside Church of the Nazarene in Olathe. He recently completed his junior year at De Soto High. Laughter mixed with tears as friends shared camping tales and teachers told of Jessip’s occasional classroom antics. “It seemed as though Bryan always had a smile on his face, whether he was in trouble or not. I don’t think he could help it, he was that kind of

escape into surrounding waters that are then carried downstream. The illnesses from the pathogens cause a variety of symptoms such as skin, ear, respiratory, eye and wound infections and diarrhea. The KDHE has been communicating with wastewater utilities in Kansas to evaluate the risk of flooded wastewater treatment systems and has notif ied downstream water suppliers of the threat. Along with the potential for pathogens, entering flood waters can be dangerous because of the rapidly moving currents and the debris and chemicals that have washed away from other flooded areas. There also are potential shock hazards from underground or downed power lines. Those living in flood-prone areas should pay attention to local forecasts and flooding advisories or warnings. Residents should also have an evacuation plan to move to higher ground before the water rises.

EDITORIALS

Towering tuition Approval of tuition increases at Kansas University and other state universities shouldn’t be automatic.

hen it comes to higher education, officials at Kansas University apparently subscribe to the philosophy that “you get what you pay for” while continuing to hope that KU students will believe that the education they receive justifies the everincreasing tuition they pay. On Thursday, the Kansas Board of Regents will consider tuition rates for the six state universities for the 2012-13 academic year. Once again, KU is requesting one of the highest percentage tuition increases in the state system. And, once again, perhaps over some moderate protest from a regent or two, that request probably will be approved. For once, the 6.2 percent increase KU is seeking in basic tuition for undergraduates who are Kansas residents is not the highest in the state. That honor goes to Emporia State University at 6.9 percent and Pittsburg State University at 6.8 percent. However, both of the smaller schools still are charging in-state tuition that is about half of what KU charges. Those figures also don’t include the burdensome course fees that jack up tuition bills at KU. Undergraduate course fees ranging from $21 to $112 per hour already have been approved for the 2012-13 school year at KU. Those fees — charged in every school except the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences — will rise steadily through the 2015-16 school year, at which time KU officials are requesting additional increases of 5.5 percent to 6 percent across the board. The state’s three smaller universities — Emporia, Pittsburg and Fort Hays — charge no extra course fees and, unlike KU, Wichita State and Kansas State proposed no increases for 2015-16. Once the fees are figured in, KU’s percentage of increase for overall tuition bills easily surpasses those at all other state universities. Every year, KU officials say they simply can’t maintain the quality of education at the university without the additional funds and that tuition increases are supported by students, who value that quality. It’s true that state support for its universities has steadily eroded in recent years, but using tuition increases as the primary way to offset that loss is tough on students and their families. The percentage of tuition increases for next year is two to three times the nation’s current rate of inflation. It seems university officials are satisfied for higher education to become more and more an opportunity reserved for high-income families or students with elite academic credentials who can earn scholarship assistance. Rising tuition rates are putting higher education out of reach for many above-average students who don’t have above-average financial resources. Does KU care about those students? Year after year of tuition increases that are well ahead of the inflation rate — as well as out of reach for many students and families — make us wonder.

History doesn’t doom Mexico to failure Reading the new book by Jorge Castaneda, “Manana Forever: Mexico and the Mexicans,” I was struck by his observation that Mexicans tend to seek individual solutions to collective problems, while Americans and Europeans tend to seek collective solutions to collective problems. Castaneda, one of Latin America’s sharpest intellectuals and a former Mexican foreign minister, says Mexico suffers from an acute individualism that is evident in Mexicans’ attitudes toward politics, architecture, arts and even sports. Mexicans are not team players, he says. It is not surprising, for example, that Mexico, one of Latin America’s most populated countries, has never won a soccer World Cup, or that it has produced international music stars like Armando Manzanero or Luis Miguel — but not world-famous orchestras. But doesn’t that apply to most Latin American countries? After all, Argentina has the world’s best soccer player Lionel Messi — and didn’t win last year’s soccer World Cup. Colombia has world-famous singer Shakira but no comparably famous orchestras, I noted during an interview with Castaneda. “There is some truth to the fact that there is a Latin American individualist trait in all countries, but the Mexican case is exceptionally acute,” he said, noting that Argentina, Brazil, Uruguay and other Latin American countries have historically had much

better soccer teams than Mexico. Castaneda cited the fact that when you fly over Mexico City, you see a largely flat city that stretches out endlessly, with individual houses as far as the eye can see. Comparatively, when you take a picture of Buenos Aires, Sao Paulo or Caracas from the air, you see high-rise apartment buildings everywhere. “Mexicans don’t like living in an apartment building, because they don’t think it belongs to them and don’t want to share a public space

with their neighbors,” he said. “That doesn’t happen in other parts of Latin America.” Likewise, few middle or upperclass Mexicans take the subway, or join charitable, religious, communitarian or educational institutions. Mexico ranks last in a Johns Hopkins University ranking of countries’ charitable donations, with only 0.04 percent of its gross domestic product spent on charity, he noted. When faced with economic or social problems, Mexicans take advantage of their geographic closeness to the United States to seek the ultimate individualist solution: emigration. “Their reaction is, ‘I’m leaving; you take care of this mess,”’ he said. Asked about the reasons behind this individualist culture, Castaneda cited the fact that the conquest of the Americas was not the work of Spain as a country, but the achievement of individual adventurers who often acted on their own initiative. In addition, Mexico already had a hierarchical structure even before the Spanish conquest, which left little room for individual initiatives, he said. But, I asked, are Mexicans doomed by their history? Isn’t this a “cultural determinism” that has proven wrong in many other countries until recently seen as hopeless? “At any given time, a country’s culture or national character or national identity, although I don’t like that term, has a significant

influence on the way people act,” Castaneda said. “But what I maintain is that it can be changed, and that it must change, and that Mexico can only prosper if it changes it.” My opinion: I agree. Countries are not condemned by their history. They can change. Singapore, South Korea, Ireland — even after its current financial crisis. India and China were believed to be basket cases only four decades ago and suffered famines that were never seen in Latin America before they started growing steadily in recent years. I know many of you are thinking that none of the above-mentioned countries are in Latin America. But there are several countries in the region that are growing steadily. Just look at Chile, or Costa Rica, or — with luck — Brazil, and you see economic progress in our neighborhood. What determines whether countries prosper is their national consensus on basic things, such as the need for continuity in government policies, attracting investments and improving educational standards. There is no biological reason why Latin America’s prosperity should be a “Manana forever” proposition. It can be achieved and it is being achieved by several countries, although unfortunately not by as many as we would like. — Andres Oppenheimer is a Latin America correspondent for the Miami Herald.

PUBLIC FORUM

Poor document

Palin emails a new media low If the big media in 2008 had dedicated the resources they are now squandering on Sarah Palin’s emails from when she was governor of Alaska and probed Barack Obama’s background and associations, she might now be vice president of the United States and Obama might still be a junior Illinois senator. Regardless of what you think of Palin, the vultures attacking her 24,000 pages of emails may represent the most flagrant example of bias since, well, since their attacks on any other Republican. “It could be fun,” said Ken Schwenke of the Los Angeles Times about the email probe. Three TV camera crews and 30 journalists waited for the release of the emails at a state administrative building in Juneau. What has the public learned so far from this investment of media time and money? We have these great revelations from The Washington Post: “Palin felt passionately about issues of importance to her state, the documents show, and she waged battle with foes large and small”; and she showed “concern about alcohol in Alaska governor’s mansion” because of the presence of young children. This is news? With so many far more important issues to be covered, why have these media outlets spent time, money and energy examining Palin’s emails? What were they expecting to find? A message from Rep. Anthony Weiner? Clearly they are not looking for anything that would reflect positively on Palin. London’s liberal Guardian newspaper promised “live coverage” as the emails were released. The New York Times and Wash-

answer is that “Palin,Thealong with Rep.

Michelle Bachmann, RMinn., who has entered the presidential race, represent everything the liberal media hate…” ington Post asked for volunteers to help sort through the documents, offering “credit” to any they used in news stories. How pathetic is that? Since most readers of those newspapers might be considered left of center, does anyone think this exercise in voyeurism will produce anything but their intended goal: the political destruction of Sarah Palin? Yes, I know, some people think she daily commits political suicide. ABC News, which, in partnership with The Daily Beast website, offered breathless updates of the email dump, lumped Palin in with Donald Trump as a “sideshow.” If she’s a sideshow, why are they paying her the kind of attention normally reserved for a main attraction? The answer is that Palin, along with Rep. Michelle Bachmann, RMinn., who has entered the presidential race, represent everything

the liberal media hate: They are attractive women who are married to the same men they started with. They think big government is the problem, not the solution to our problems. They are pro-life and, gasp, believe in God. In Palin’s case, she and her husband have a Down syndrome child, which she refused to abort. Right there you have enough to offend pro-choice feminists, who treat abortion as a sacrament and appear to have no problem with eliminating the “defective,” as was the case with their patron “saint,” Planned Parenthood founder Margaret Sanger. The big media, rather than being honest brokers in the process of selecting the next president, see themselves as players. Many regard themselves as kingmakers, or in Palin’s case, “queen destroyers.” Increasing numbers of the public regard their arrogance with disdain. It is a major reason why broadcast news ratings have been falling, along with subscriptions to the Times and Post. Rather than correct their ways, they keep on doing what is harming their publications and pretend the problem lies with the readers and viewers (now nonreaders and non-viewers), rather than with themselves. Sarah Palin’s negatives are high enough and her support low enough to recommend against her running for president. But no one deserves this kind of treatment. Let her rise or fall on her ideas (or lack of them) and not on old emails. Have they no shame? Obviously not. — Cal Thomas is a columnist for Tribune Media Services.

To the editor: The governing bodies have adopted the environmental chapter of the Comprehensive Plan for Lawrence and Douglas County after much consternation. Opponents claimed the document was rushed through without adequate participation by those most affected. While that may be true, the greater issue is the quality of the document. It is very poorly written, and very difficult to read with understanding. The contents of its 37 pages could be easily accomplished in 20 or fewer, resulting in better understanding. Most of it is written in the passive voice assigning no entity the responsibility for implementation of the policies. It simply states that actions should be taken. The style of the chapter and the complex lengthy sentences and paragraphs obfuscate the true intent. The authors have employed artificial attempts to make the document sound highly technical, which have served to make it sound affected. Trite buzzwords proliferate. “Sustainable” and “sustainability” appear nine times on the first two pages, and so many times in the remainder of the document as to render them meaningless. “Viewshed” does not appear in my dictionary. Moreover, it will be impossible to establish objective criteria to identify “viewsheds.” The environmental chapter needs to be rewritten so that it represents more than just dead trees.

LAWRENCE ALMANAC Through 8 p.m. Tuesday.

Body found inside long-submerged car TOPEKA — Shawnee County authorities say a car pulled from Lake Shawnee with a body inside was last registered in 1984, meaning it could have been underwater as long as 27 years. The car was pulled from the lake on Saturday near the Shawnee Yacht Club. The coroner verified that at least one set of adult human remains were inside the car. Shawnee County Sheriff’s Lt. Jay Simecka says investigators continue to try and identify the remains. He told The Topeka Capital-Journal that as of Monday, the death was considered suspicious. He says the car has tentatively been identified as a mid1970s Oldsmobile 98, perhaps a 1974 model with two doors. It has a Wisconsin license plate bearing a 1984 registration sticker. The car’s vehicle identification number isn’t readable, and investigators are using a technique to try to lift the VIN number. The car had been discovered a few months ago by the Kansas Department of Wildlife and Parks. The agency had been testing new radar equipment on the lake's waters.

‘Dark Time at The Granada’ Starting at 9 tonight at The Granada, Jay Maus and cohorts Will Averill, Adri Pendergrass, Blair Lobb, Ed Parker and Frank Allbritten perform in the second-ever “Dark Time at The Granada” show. A showcase for live, local comedy, the series allows local comedians to try out new material, hone existing bits and even gives newcomers a forum. The show also features the house band, the Dark Time Bandits, providing music between sets and after the show. “Dark Time at The Granada” runs a little blue, so it’s an 18-and-older affair. Stick around after the show for The Dark Time After Party. The whole thing costs a mere $1. Not a bad deal for six performers and some live music.

KANSAS MEN’S BASKETBALL

Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

D-end an area of need Most football coaches secretly love it when the temperature soars during conditioning season. They await reports from strength coaches regarding which players melted, which pushed through the heat to stand above peers, which embraced the reality that every second not spent getting better is a second spent getting worse. What player among the incoming freshmen has begun earning respect on his way to becoming known as the program’s workout warrior, the way James Holt did during his time in Lawrence? Holt arrived at Kansas too small to play linebacker, not quick enough for the secondary, the classic ’tweener. Bit by bit, one weight-room scream at a time, one sprinting through the finish when others let up at a time, Holt turned himself into a NFL player by becoming so much more explosive, stronger and faster. He could not have done it without getting pushed out of his comfort zone constantly by the staff of strength and conditioning coach Chris Dawson, now working for Kansas State. Are the KU football players being pushed harder now and logging more miles running now than a year ago? The answer has to be an emphatic yes or all the apparent recruiting gains will be nullified because college football is at least as much about developing as it is recruiting. That’s why so many football players red-shirt. If properly developed, they can offer a team far more in their fifth year than their first. A development program, Kansas can’t afford to wait that long at some positions. Defensive end is paramount among them. Someone needs to emerge to join Toben Opurum in flying off the edge. “We’ll look at anybody who can rush the quarterback and if they do a good job of rushing the quarterback, they will play,” defensive line coach/co-defensive coordinator Buddy Wyatt said of incoming freshmen. Michael Reynolds (6-foot-4, 220 pounds) of Wichita, Ben Goodman (6-3, 245) of Beaumont, Texas and Javonte Daniel (6-4, 215) of LaGrange, Ga., all have a shot at forcing their way into consideration both during conditioning sessions and preseason camp. Red-shirt freshman Pat Lewandowski and sophomore Keba Agostinho will push for playing time at defensive end on the opposite side of Opurum, the team’s leading rusher as a freshman, a linebacker the first third of his sophomore season and an end the rest of the way. “Toben had a really good spring, I mean he was intense, every day he came to practice he came to get better and he’s still learning the position,” Wyatt said. “We moved him to defensive end the fifth game into the season. He was learning what he was supposed to do that week. He wasn’t learning how to play the position. He got a chance to learn the position in the spring and he got better. He got better. So he has a chance to make some plays for us and we’re hoping as summer goes and fall camp goes he continues to get better so he can really set himself apart, not only on our team but in the conference as a playmaker.” A vastly improved defensive line represents KU’s only chance of slowing Big 12 offenses and without any reason to believe the pocket will get pushed from the middle, the pressure must come from the edges.

Delighted to be here

KANSAS UNIVERSITY GUARD NIKO ROBERTS SMILES AS HE LISTENS TO CAMPERS chanting for him to dunk Tuesday at Bill Self’s basketball camp in Horejsi Center. Roberts, a sophomore walk-on whose dad, Norm, is an assistant coach at Florida, has been helping KU’s freshmen adjust to campus life.

Roberts optimistic heading into sophomore season By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Norm Roberts, who was hired as an assistant basketball coach at the University of Florida last April, hasn’t tried to convince his oldest son, Niko, to join him in Gainesville, Fla. “No, he hasn’t been begging me to come. He knows I love it here and want to be here. I’ll visit him when I can, but Kansas is the place for me right now,” said Niko, Kansas University’s 5foot-11, 175-pound sophomore

walk-on guard from Huntington, N.Y. Norm, of course, is thrilled his son is playing ball at KU, where he worked as an assistant coach on Bill Self’s 2003-04 staff. Norm also worked for Self at Oral Roberts, Tulsa and Illinois from 1996-2003 and ran his own program at St. John’s, where he went 81-101 from 2005-10. “He’s been there (Florida) for a month. He loves it. He loves the coaching staff. He loves the team. I think he loves the situation he’s in right now,” Niko said of Norm,

who now works for Billy Donovan at the SEC school. “Definitely,” Niko added, when asked if dad would be a head coach again. “Because he is a great coach, a great guy, a great person. He does things the right way. He just has to wait for the right spot for him.” Niko — he averaged 16.0 points and 5.0 assists a game his senior season at Saint Anthony’s High in Long Island, N.Y. — considered walking on at VCU, East Carolina and some other schools before becoming a non-scholarship player at KU.

Now a seasoned sophomore, he’s taken KU freshmen Ben McLemore and Naadir Tharpe under his wing. “I’m rooming with Ben so I see him every single day. Naadir is always in the room, too,” Roberts said Tuesday before working out for Bill Self’s basketball campers. “I’m trying to give them little pointers to figure out how to work their situation here, how to deal with classes. “I really like Ben. Ben is funny. Please see ROBERTS, page 3B

State titles piling up at Baldwin By Clark Goble Journal-World Sports Writer

U.S. SOCCER STRIKER JOZY ALTIDORE, RIGHT, IS CONGRATULATED by teammate Clarence Goodson following a goal. The U.S. defeated Guadeloupe, 1-0, in the CONCACAF Gold Cup on Tuesday in Kansas City, Kan. Story on page 3B.

B A L D W I N C I T Y — The trophy case at Baldwin High is full, a product of the school’s vast athletic success in the last decade. And thanks to this season’s efforts from the boys and girls cross country teams and the boys and girls track & field teams, there’s four more state championship trophies that don’t have a home quite yet. They sit in cross country and boys track coach Mike Spielman’s classroom, for now at least. Spielman has been a part of tons of state titles — he has 17 cross country championships in 19 seasons — and none of them slip his memory. “I’ve been really fortunate to be a part of quite a few of them, but for those kids, it’s the one that they remember because it’s the one they were a part of,” Spielman said. “I remember all of them.” The Bulldogs scored the cross country titles rather easily. The Baldwin girls cruised to their fourth straight title, and the boys fended off Mulvane — the three-time reigning champions — for their first title since 2005. Brian Wright runs both cross country and track for Baldwin.

BALDWIN SOPHOMORE KAITLYN BARNES, RIGHT, IS PICTURED with girls track coach Ted Zuzzio, junior Brian Wright and boys track coach Mike Spielman on Monday at Baldwin High. The Bulldogs won state titles this past year in boys and girls track and field, along with boys and girls cross country. Unlucky injuries have slowed him during cross country — he blacked out during this year’s state meet after hitting a tree with his head — but he still enjoys the team dynamics of the sport. “The team concept in cross country is pretty awesome, because it’s basically a family,” Wright said. “We all get along really well with each other.”

The track championships weren’t as expected. Both the boys and girls championship came down the final race, the 4x400 relay. Spielman and sprinters coach Ted Zuzzio had done the calculating and knew what their teams needed to do to win. The boys had to secure third Please see BALDWIN, page 3B

Kansas softball adds transfer J-W Staff Reports

South Alabama softball pitcher Morgan Druhan, a former Alabama High School Association Class 5A Pitcher of the Year, will transfer to Kansas University for the 2011-12 academic year. Druhan played the last two seasons for South Alabama in the Sun Belt Conference. Druhan, a native of Spanish Fort, Ala., went 10-6 in 24 appearances with a 2.77 earned-run average last sea-

son. Her 143 strikeouts led the team. Druhan was named to the Sun Belt Commissioner’s Academic List in 2010. “We are really excited to have a pitcher of Morgan’s caliber join our program for the next two seasons,” said KU coach Megan Smith, who will enter her third season next year. “She will come in and make an immediate impact and be a huge part of our success next season. Her tremendous strength, confi-

dence, presence and successful experience pitching against top-level offensive teams will allow for her to step up into a leadership role within our pitching staff immediately.” The 5-foot-6 hurler led Spanish Fort High School to the state semifinals during her senior year after recording 420 strikeouts in 194.2 innings. As a junior in 2008, Druhan played in the north/south allstar game.

U.S. beats Guadeloupe to advance in Gold Cup K A N S A S C I T Y , K AN . ( AP ) — Jozy Altidore scored in the ninth minute off an assist from Michael Bradley, and the United States hung on to beat Guadeloupe, 1-0, on Tuesday night at Livestrong Sporting Park to reach the quarterfinals of the Gold Cup. The U.S. finished second in Group C with six points, and will face Group B winner Jamaica in the quarterfinals in Washington, D.C., on Sunday. The second-place finish broke a string of 10 straight first-place finishes in group play. The United States needed only a draw to advance after Panama and Canada drew, 1-1, in Tuesday night’s early game. Altidore made that a moot point with his go-ahead drive from 25 yards, his second goal of the tournament. Guadeloupe, a surprise semifinalist four years ago, went winless in three games. The United States pressed its attack throughout the match and had several chances to add an insurance goal but was unable to convert any of them. Clint Dempsey had the best opportunity in the 76th minute, when he wound up alone with a loose ball in front of the goal, but Julien Ictoi took advantage of Dempsey’s momentary hesitation and hooked the ball to goalkeeper Franck Grandel. The Americans, who started slowly and gave up an early goal in Saturday’s 2-1 loss to Panama, nearly saw the same

place, one spot ahead of their seed after the preliminaries on Friday. The girls, coached by Zuzzio, needed to win and get some help from a couple other teams. “I think the nerves were definitely there,” said Kaitlyn Barnes, who runs both track and cross country for the Bulldogs. Both teams blocked out the pressure and focused on running their race. The boys finished third.

should be on campus next week. “They’ve been playing well in pick-up,” Roberts said. “Ben is so athletic. He’s going to be great. Naadir is going to be a really good point guard. He’s always looking to set somebody up. I think they will impact our team real well.” Roberts, who played 22 minutes in 12 games last season, has been fine-tuning his own game. “Coach (Kurtis) Townsend has been working with me on my handle a lot. My dribbling is getting better. Hopefully I’ll be able to get to the rack easier and create plays,” Roberts said. “It (summer) is perfect. Right now it’s a little bit crazy because we are working camps, playing pick-up. We’re just busy throughout the

The girls finished first and got the necessary help. In the end, both teams tied for the state championship, the boys with Louisburg and the girls with Colby. And in Kansas track, there’s no way to break ties. All four teams were named state champions. The girls secured their second consecutive title and the boys took their first track state championship since 2002. “Everything was perfect,” Barnes said. “Nothing could have gone better.” The city of Baldwin has embraced the school’s running dynasty, with hundreds of supporters traveling to Wichita for the state meet.

In the earlier game, Luis Tejada scored in the first minute of stoppage time during a scramble in front of goal, allowing Panama to escape with a 1-1 draw against Canada. The goal was originally credited to Blas Perez, but CONCACAF changed it midway through the nightcap between the U.S. and Guadeloupe. The result gave Panama seven points in Group C, while Canada was eliminated when Americans won their game. “Our goal before the start of this tournament was to come out on top of our group,” said Panamanian coach Julio Dely Valdes. “Now that we have done that, our goal is to go as far as possible in the Gold Cup and essentially win the whole thing.” Dwayne De Rosario converted a penalty kick in the 62nd minute for Canada, which would have secured a quarterfinal berth had it been able to hold on for the victory. Panama, which played back and counterattacked for the first 60 minutes, turned up the pressure late in the match and missed several good chances before finally forcing the draw. “I don’t think we did a good enough job of keeping the ball and making them work to get it,” Canadian coach Stephen Hart said. “They were throwing numbers forward and we just couldn’t get a hold of the ball for any period of time. Unfortunately, what happened, happened.”

We can still relax a little bit and enjoy being in college, not just out there every day practicing.” The Jayhawks play pick-up almost every day. “We know what we are capable of. We are ready to play,” Niko said of 2011-12. “I think we are just as good as we were last year. We just may look a little bit different.” ●

Their goals for the 2011-2012 school year are no different: secure state titles. “They just like to compete,” Zuzzio said. “That’s all we ever ask of any of our kids. It sort of caught on and we’ve had success because of their willingness to work hard in practice and sacrifice.”

ROYALS 7, ATHLETICS 4

Duffy, K.C. cruise past Oakland OAKLAND , C ALIF . (AP) — Alcides Escobar had three hits and two RBIs, Danny Duffy pitched six innings for his first major league win and the Kansas City Royals beat Oakland 7-4 on Tuesday night. The victory, which improved the Royals to 30-37 on the season, spoiled the home debut of Athletics interim manager Bob Melvin. The Royals, led by rookie third baseman Mike Moustakas, who singled twice and scored both times, and designated hitter Billy Butler, who added a two-run double, won for the fourth time in five games. Kansas City improved to 31 on its current road trip following a 4-7 homestand. Duffy (1-2), who began the season in the minors, gave up two runs and scattered four hits.

NBA Labor talks move ahead NEW YORK — NBA Commissioner David Stern and deputy commissioner Adam Silver met with players’ association executive director Billy Hunter and members of their staffs Tuesday, and there are more discussions planned for later this week. The owners and players are negotiating a new collective bargaining agreement to replace the deal that expires June 30. The sides met three times during the NBA finals. They remain far apart, creating fear there will be a lockout on July 1.

COLLEGE FOOTBALL Pryor apologizes, kind of MIAMI BEACH, FLA. — Terrelle Pryor has apologized to Ohio State and former Buckeyes coach Jim Tressel, saying he’s “sorry for my conduct off the field.” Speaking out for the first time since his college career came to a scandalous end, Pryor and agent Drew Rosenhaus appeared at a news conference Tuesday. Neither took questions, and after each gave a statement, Rosenhaus stood up and told Pryor they were leaving. While Pryor acknowledged mistakes, he did not say what they specifically were. Pryor left school after already being suspended by Ohio State and the NCAA for the first five games of the 2011 season for accepting improper benefits in the form of cash and discounted tattoos from a Columbus tattoo-parlor owner.

Make a healthy smoothie for a summer treat Q:

Do you have any smoothie recipes that my kids and I can make this summer?

There’s a ton of smoothie recipes out there, but here are just a few that I’ve compiled from various sources. To get started, here’s a few tips that may be helpful: Using frozen fruit helps thicken beverages without diluting the flavor. To freeze fruit, such as fresh berries, wash the fruit thoroughly under running tap water, pat dry with clean paper towels and freeze in a single layer on a rimmed cookie sheet. Transfer to a freezer bag when frozen. Pour out as needed. Note: Use smaller pieces of fruit, such as berries or sliced pieces of larger fruits or your blender may be unable to process them. Whether using fresh or frozen fruit, use fruit at its peak of ripeness to capture the most natural sweetness for smoothies. Most smoothies and shakes should be consumed immediately. They may change color if they are allowed to stand for very long.

BREAKFAST SMOOTHIE 8 oz (1 cup) nonfat plain yogurt 1 cup 1 percent low fat or nonfat milk 1 3/4 cup whole fresh or frozen strawberries, hulled 1 fresh peach, peeled and sliced or 3/4 cup frozen peach slices (see Note) 2 teaspoons vanilla extract 2 tablespoons chopped walnuts 2 whole strawberries (optional)

Place first five ingredients in a blender. Purée mixture for 15 to 20 seconds. Pour into two tall glasses and top each with 1 tablespoon chopped nuts. Garnish glass with strawberry, if desired. Note: If you prefer a thicker smoothie, replace the peach with 1 small sliced banana.

Grilled fruit punches up a traditional fool By Alison Ladman For The Associated Press

Don’t let the name confuse you. This is an easy, delicious and summery dessert, not a reference to the person standing at the grill. A fool is a classic British dessert made from a fruit compote and whipped cream. Traditionally, the two components are folded together, but they also can be layered in a parfait glass. In our revision, we’ve opted to grill the fruit rather than cook it on the stovetop. Grilling the fruit keeps your kitchen cool and adds a wonderful smoky-caramel flavor to the fruit. We’ve opted for a mixture of strawberries and peaches, but pineapple and banana with a little toasted coconut on top would be a great tropical fool. Or use apples and pears with a little cinnamon added to the whipped cream.

GRILLED FOOL Vegetable oil, for oiling the grill 2 peaches, halved, pits removed 1 pound large strawberries, stemmed and halved 2 tablespoons honey 1 teaspoon lemon juice 1 1/2 cups heavy cream 1/4 cup powdered sugar 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Heat a grill to medium-high. Be sure that the grates are very clean. Using a pair of tongs, rub a paper towel soaked in vegetable oil over the grates. Grill the peaches and strawberries until tender and starting to brown. Remove the strawberries after 5 minutes. Flip the peaches and grill for another 5 minutes. Allow the fruit to cool until it is easily handled. Pull the skins off the peaches. Cut the fruit up into 1/2-inch cubes, then combine in a large bowl. Stir in the honey and lemon juice. Allow to cool completely. With an electric mixer, in a large bowl beat the cream, powdered sugar and vanilla until soft peaks form. To assemble the fools, arrange the fruit and whipped cream in layers in tall glasses. Start with the mixed fruit,

of an issue, because that takes an awful lot more effort and machinery and cleaning and all that sort of stuff.”

Balancing source with production When Ellie Garrett and Bridget Patti were conceptualizing their bakery business, they knew they wanted to go as local as possible. They sought out local producers to find eggs, butter, milk, cream, honey, fruit, wine, beer and wheat for the cakes, pies and pastries that would soon be sold under the Backdoor Bakery label at the 2011 Lawrence Farmers’ Market. “For us, we were trying to use as many local products as we felt were as high quality as possible to begin with,” Garrett says. “It was a question of quality balancing with local as far as priority goes.” Garrett and Patti get their flour from both Quaintance’s ACME and Heartland Mills. They say that though they could buy generic bags of King Arthur Flour and feel pretty confident that at least a percentage of that flour was ground from Kansas wheat, they preferred to work through local mills. It’s that kind of gumption that looks pretty good these days on a market application. Both Linda Cottin of Cottin’s Farmers’ Market and Tom Buller of the Lawrence Farmers’ Market say that the use of local products does give some weight to a vendor competing with others for a coveted market space. “Basically, we don’t have a strict requirement on our baked goods or prepared foods that all the ingredients have to be local. We felt like that would become a big headache to try to police,” Buller says. “We don’t have that standard, but what we

do is when we look at applications ... we kind of give preference to people in the categories of baked goods and prepared foods that do use local products or try to the best of their ability.” Cottin says that her market has just 16 spaces. Because of the market’s size, she says eventually she may ask bakers to source their products locally, but that right now her main concern is to provide safe incubation to new members of the local food economy. “First, we want to get them producing and comfortable,” she says. “Once they get producing and they are comfortable marketing their product and selling their product and all that, then ... I think that’s the time to start introducing the local product concept.”

Years away? So, how will the Wheat State get its local flour? Mercedes Taylor-Puckett of the Kansas Rural Center says that until the infrastructure is sorted out — there are both more mills and more independent grain growers — the local food economy will be somewhat incomplete. “In other areas of the country, grain farmers and bakers have gotten together and they’re trying to rebuild that infrastructure that we’ve lost through consolidation,” she says, adding that infrastructure equals jobs. “And so, it would be really interesting to explore whether we can look at grain in Kansas as a product, not just a commodity.” Thom Leonard agrees that a movement has picked up in other parts of the country. Leonard, the co-founder of WheatFields Bakery & Cafe, 904 Vt., says that he’s worked with or knows of groups in climates as diverse as Washington state, Colorado, North Carolina and upstate New York on growing local wheat. It’s a process of returning to the

CHEF ALLI: WHO’S COOKIN’

old ways before crop subsidies and industrialization modernized food production. “Well, not everybody can have local papayas. But wheat of some type can be grown in almost any state,” Leonard says, noting that Florida and Alabama both currently grow more wheat than Iowa. “It used to be that wheat was grown as part of a rotation on the farm.” And that means diversification for local farmers. As Leonard points out, “the farmer growing tomatoes isn’t the farmer growing wheat” much of the time. But two Lawrence Farmers’ Market vendors are working to change that. Don Edmonds of Rocky Hills Elk Ranch in Winchester and Jill Elmers of Lawrence’s Moon on the Meadow Farm are both growing crops they hope to mill. Edmonds is experimenting with open-pollinated corn from century’s old seed and is hoping to get it ground in Nebraska and sold at the farmers market. Elmers is testing 1.5 acres of heirloom wheat. She hopes to have a stock of wheatberries and ground flour to share with her CSA and farmers market customers by the end of the year. It’s a start, but one could scarf a lot of apple cider doughnuts on the journey to where the state would need to go to make it easy for anyone to get locally grown and milled flour for a reasonable price. “I think it would be a several-year project,” Taylor-Puckett says of connecting bakers with grain growers. “I think the situation in Topeka has highlighted opportunities to more fully integrate farmers market products with local foods. I think it’s ... something that we should really take a look at as an opportunity, not as a challenge.”

SOUTHWESTERN CHICKEN SLIDERS

A healthy, indulgent burger — bacon and all By Jim Romanoff For The Associated Press

An indulgent burger can be the perfect treat for Dad on Father’s Day, but it’s hard to balance that sentiment with the urge to keep him healthy. That doesn’t mean you have to toss out the idea of a real burger in favor of a flavorless low-fat patty wedged between a flaxseed and bran — Staff writer Sarah Henning can be reached bun.

Homemade ice cream perfect treat for Father’s Day J

une brings Father’s Day, and that always makes me think of homemade ice cream. Not just because it’s an old-fashioned treat that goes way back into my childhood, but more so because I remember how much my dad loved to make homemade ice cream. When I was a kid, our family had the typical handcrank freezer of that era. Because the freezer had become a little worn with use, it was my job to sit on top of the freezer, holding everything in place as Dad and my uncles worked in shifts to turn the handle. I remember how they would fold up a towel and place it over the top of the freezer for me to sit on; my behind still got cold pretty quickly, but I wasn’t about to move from my special perch. Luckily, they used plenty of salt along with the ice, so it never took long for that ice cream to set up. As time passed, we got an electric freezer and that saved my rear end. Instead of using muscle to turn the freezer, now all we had to do was listen for the motor to gear down — progress! In my cooking journal, I have a photo of my dad holding a countertop ice cream freezer that I gave him one Father’s Day. It doesn’t require the ice and salt used in the old-fashioned freezer he was accustomed to. You simply froze the inner cylinder, added your ice cream ingredients and turned it on to churn until the contents were frozen. He is proudly holding it in the picture, but I bet under his breath he is murmuring words about it being some “new-fangled” thing his daughter came up with as the perfect gift. To this day, I don’t even know if my Dad ever used that ice cream freezer, but he sure looked good holding it in that photo.

Dad believed that ice cream was made to be enjoyed by many. When I think back to family gatherings and church ice cream socials, I recall that dad nearly always made two freezers of ice cream, always vanilla. If anybody wanted flavored ice cream, they had to do so by adding a topping themselves. And Dad’s ice cream was never really what you would consider rich and sweet, especially by commercial ice cream standards. He kept it as straightforward as possible, just a simple mixture of eggs, sugar, vanilla, 2 percent milk and cream, poured straight into his stainless steel container and promptly frozen. It was cool and creamy, and so delicious served on top of mom’s warm apple cobbler. I was recently made aware that my cousin now carries the homemade vanilla ice cream torch for our family. I’ve seen him myself at two recent family gatherings, ice cream freezer in tow. He was easy to spot because of the long line of kids already trailing him when he came through the door. But the best part, at least for me as I watched, was the pride he took in serving his ice cream. Our family tradition continues — bowl by bowl. Here is the ice cream recipe that I now make for my family — all three of my boys just love it, and I can mix it up for them in nothin’ flat! I’ve also included a family-favorite dessert recipe that I often bake in my cast-iron skillet.

Heat a gas grill to high or light a charcoal fire. In a medium bowl, mix together the ground chicken, salt and pepper. Form into eight 1/2-inch-thick patties. Place the patties on a plate and set aside. In a small bowl, mix together the mayonnaise and adobo sauce. Set aside. Using a vegetable oilsoaked paper towel held with tongs, oil the grill grates. Grill the chicken burgers, flipping once, until a thermometer registers 165 degrees at the center, about 3 to 4 minutes per side. Top each burger with some of the cheese and bacon, then continue grilling until melted.

Meanwhile, toast the rolls at the edge of the grill. To assemble, spread some of the mayonnaise mixture on the top and bottom of each roll.

Ban highlights difficulties of getting local flour in Wheat State By Sarah Henning sarah@lawrence.com

Nothing like a doughnut, or lack thereof, to put a bad taste in people’s mouths. The Capitol Midweek Farmers’ Market made news at the tail end of May for what it suddenly wasn’t selling: Rees Fruit Farm cider doughnuts. The ban by the farmers market’s overseeing agency, the Kansas Department of Health and Environment, wasn’t purely a matter of health, it was a matter of source. They were banned because, despite meeting market standards for use of whole-wheat flour, the flour wasn’t a local product. In 2011, the market, which asks vendor applicants to use whole-wheat flour in baked goods, added another stipulation to that regulation: all main ingredients in salable baked goods must be grown and processed in Kansas, including the whole-wheat flour. No Kansas whole-wheat flour, no doughnuts. No doughnuts turned into a big deal, with most major news outlets in the

northeastern section of the state covering the ban and the outraged customers whose sweet teeth were denied. But the biggest news of all slid under the radar: The ban exposed a hole in our local food economy much bigger than those found in the tasty treat that started it all. Because, despite the fact that Kansas is consistently the top wheat producer in the nation, it ranges from difficult to expensive to knowingly purchase Kansas-grown, Kansas-ground wheat flour. Yes, it’s true. Even the owner of the only mill in this corner of the state grinding 100 percent Kansas grain says that getting the type of flour most market bakers would want for sweet treats is downright difficult on a local level. “If you’re looking for whole-wheat flour, that’s pretty simple to get,” says Lee Quaintance, who, with his wife, Cindy, runs Soaring Eagle Farm/ACME Grain in Edgerton. Their whole-wheat flour is available in bulk from The Merc, 901 S. Iowa. “If you’re looking for just the white flour, that doesn’t have any bran and germ in it, that’s a little more Please see FLOUR, page 7B

Dear Numb: Layla sounds like a control freak, and your son has no spine. However, as the parents, they get to set the boundaries when it comes to their child, like it or not. If you

Drescher returns with ‘Happily Divorced’ They don’t make sitcoms like they used to, so TV Land casts talent that used to make sitcoms. And it almost works. Fran Drescher (”The Nanny”) returns in “Happily Divorced” (9:30 p.m.). For reasons that will become clear, the creators of this sitcom concentrated a whole lot more on the situation than the comedy. Drescher plays a happy housewife who is shocked, shocked, shocked to discover that after 18 years of marriage, her husband, soul mate and best friend (John Michael Higgins, “Best in Show”) is gay and wants to come out of the closet. But because they are heavily over-leveraged, neither has the money to move out of their posh house, and a kind of “Two’s Company” ensues, with Fran’s character pursuing new boyfriends while the newly out hubby sleeps in the den, only to pop up at the most inopportune moments. Drescher brings a great deal of nostalgic goodwill from her years on “The Nanny,” but about three-quarters of the decent jokes here revolve around the “It didn’t occur to you he was gay?” theme. Even her parents (Rita Moreno and Robert Walden) get in on the act. One hopes the always-capable Tichina Arnold (”Everybody Hates Chris”) will have more to do as her best friend in future episodes. In a case of life-imitates-sitcom (or the other way around), this story neatly parallels the tale of Fran Drescher and ex-husband Peter Marc Jacobson, who co-created “The Nanny.” Apparently they remain good friends and collaborators and are coproducers of “Happily Divorced.” With “The Nanny,” Drescher and Jacobson confected a 1990s variation on a fairy tale. I’m not sure if viewers will find “Divorced” quite so enchanting. ● Speaking of retro-sitcoms, George Wendt guest stars on a new episode of “Hot in Cleveland” (9 p.m., TV Land) and even takes a “Norm” nod in a bar. In Amish country, of all places. ● If it takes decades for folks to yearn for old-fashioned sitcom stars, reality shows are recycled with a regularity that results in a sickening sameness. “Rocco’s Dinner Party” (9 p.m., Bravo) features reality restaurant fixture Rocco DiSpirito as he auditions three eager chefs to cater a meal for the host and “friends,” who turn out to be media insiders. There’s absolutely nothing on this show you haven’t seen before. A hundred times.

Tonight’s other highlights ● If required, Boston and Vancouver meet in game 7 of the Stanley Cup finals (7 p.m., NBC) ● Two hours of competition on “So You Think You Can Dance” (7 p.m., Fox). ● Experts ponder the “101 Gadgets That Changed the World” (8 p.m., History). ● “Through the Wormhole with Morgan Freeman” (9 p.m., Science) ponders the notion of an “edge” to the universe. ● ABC News presents “Caught in the Act” (9 p.m., ABC). ● Corporate hardball breaks out before a softball game on “Men of a Certain Age” (9 p.m., TNT). ● “30 Seconds to Stardom: Commercials’ Most Famous Faces” (9 p.m., E!) recalls personalities who sold themselves better than the product.

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS For Wednesday, June 15: This year, in many ways you are like a pendulum, swinging back and forth. You find your emotions subject to mood swings.

Dear Annie: Two years ago, my son began dating “Layla,” who then became pregnant. I went out of my way to include her in our family. I bought maternity clothes and baby outfits, took her out for lunch and paid for her to join us on a family cruise. Layla emailed everyone to stay away from the hospital the day of the baby’s birth, as she wanted “bonding time.” I asked my son if I could bring flowers. He said “fine” and met me at the hospital. He invited me to get a peek at the baby through the window. I didn’t see Layla, but when she heard I had been there, she became extremely angry, and later, requests to see my new grandson were rebuffed. I sent an email apologizing for upsetting her. I also suggested we seek counseling together. In response, she “unfriended” me from her Facebook page, sent me a list of all of my “wrongdoings” and told me I was not allowed to contact my son anymore. My son said he had to side with Layla because she is the mother of his child. My grandson is now a year old. I saw a therapist who recommended I distance myself, which I have done. My son finally called to say he is marrying Layla in two months. He said they want to meet with me in a public place to discuss the
