Gov.: Solid finances allow for big tax cuts

THE POEHLER LOFT APARTMENT PROJECT IN EAST LAWRENCE boasts a putting green for its tenants. The building, which will have an open house Friday, is fully leased already and has a waiting list that’s about 70 people long.

Developer hopes popular project sparks east Lawrence renaissance

TOPEKA — Kansas’ finances are solid enough to go forward with the massive state income tax cuts approved by legislators earlier this year, Gov. Sam Brownback said Wednesday, addressing election-season angst and worries over whether the reductions will create big budget problems in the near future.

Brownback’s comments came as he announced that the state will pay off $25 million in bonds early, debt used to help finance an ongoing renovation of the Statehouse, improvements at the state fairgrounds in Hutchinson Brownback and other projects. His administration and legislative researchers also reported that the state ended its 2012 budget year with cash reserves of $466 million — more than double last year’s figure and Please see GOVERNOR, page 2A

Developer Tony Krsnich was pretty confident he was on to something last year when he started converting the 1904 Poehler Grocery Warehouse in east Lawrence into a 49-unit apartment building.

Late last month, when he officially opened the building for tenants to start signing leases, he was sure of it.

“We leased the whole building in 12 hours,” Krsnich said. “And we have a waiting list of about 70 people.”

Governor

provide $231 million in tax relief for the fiscal year beginning July 1. That annual figure would grow to $934 million after six years.

Conservatives pushed the income tax cuts through the Legislature despite projections from the nonpartisan Legislative Research Department showing a budget shortfall will emerge by July 2014. The researchers’ projections show cumulative shortfalls over five years exceeding $2.5 billion, and critics of the tax legislation fear such gaps would be closed by slashing funding for public schools and social services.

“Most of the people who I run into are not that optimistic. They’re concerned,” said Senate President Steve Morris, a moderate Hugoton Republican who faces a primary challenge from conservative state Rep. Larry Powell, of Garden City.

The legislative projections assume that state revenues, outside of the tax cuts, would grow 4 percent annually and that spending would grow almost 3 percent to cover costs associated with social services and public pensions and provide additional aid for public schools.

Brownback said his administration is committed to cutting administrative costs where it can and selling off unused state property.

He and other GOP conservatives also contend the revenue growth projections are too pessimistic; healthier numbers would shrink or eliminate projected shortfalls in future years.

up from only $876 when Brownback took office in January 2011.

The Republican governor and fellow conservatives have repeatedly noted that since Brownback took office, the state closed a projected $500 million shortfall without increasing taxes, and then built a healthy surplus. But Brownback’s critics, including moderate Republicans, worry that the tax cuts are likely to create a new budget crisis, starting next year.

Brownback and his allies believe the cuts will encourage businesses to add employees, attract new firms to Kansas and stimulate the economy. The governor held the news conference less than two weeks before the state’s Aug. 7 primary in which conservatives are trying to unseat Senate Republicans who resisted many of Brownback’s initiatives.

“We’re in excellent fiscal position right now,” Brownback told reporters.

“We’re in a fiscal position to do this tax cut. We’re doing this tax cut to get off of the trend lines we were on of losing jobs.”

The legislation will cut individual income tax rates for 2013 and eliminate income taxes for the owners of 191,000 businesses. Coupled with a sales tax reduction already scheduled for July 2013, the cuts would

for an old east Lawrence warehouse district.

Krsnich has scheduled an open house and ribbon cutting for his $9 million Poehler Loft Apartment project for 5 p.m. Friday at 619 E. Eighth St. “I hope we have a thousand people show up for the open house, and I hope hundreds of them come up to me with ideas about how we can do even more in this area,” Krsnich said.

He also hopes people will take time to notice the apartments. The project is an unusual one for Lawrence because the bulk of the 49 apartments are rent-controlled by the state, a requirement for the project to access state tax credits that were used to finance construction.

The result is that brand new one-bedroom apartments start at $425 per month, while two-bedrooms start at $650 per month. Most tenants do have to meet some income guidelines to live at the complex.

“Some of these units would have a market rent rate of nearly $2,000 a month, and I promise you won’t notice a difference in quality between these and those,” said Krsnich, who previously gained recognition for converting the rundown Chatham Hotel building in Kansas City, Mo., into a senior apartment complex.

people have been diagnosed with a pre-existing condition, like cancer, Alzheimer’s disease, diabetes and heart disease, and could potentially be denied health insurance or forced to pay higher costs.

It estimated that 64.8 million Americans had such a condition. That includes:

1.4 million Missouri residents.

627,000 Kansas residents.

33,200 Douglas and Miami county residents.

The report provided data for 15 areas in Kansas.

According to Families USA, these are conservative estimates because it only looked at 69 conditions and there are more that could result in denial of coverage. Additionally, there could be people who have a condition, but it hasn’t been diagnosed yet.

During a teleconference call, Bunnie Gronborg, of Festus, Mo., talked about her struggles in getting health insurance coverage after leaving a library job because she had been diagnosed with high blood pressure, a condition that wasn’t included in the report.

She said she had no idea that she would be repeatedly denied coverage because of a condition that she hardly thought twice about because she took a pill and it was under control.

Gronborg said she hasn’t been to her primary care doctor in years for a wellness exam, mammogram or pap smear because she can’t afford it.

She also has been closely monitoring a lesion on her face.

“I have spent the last several years worrying every single day, worrying that something could happen to me,” she said.

That’s about to change in seven days because she will be eligible to receive Medicare, a government health insurance program for those 65 and older and for younger people with disabilities.

“I just received my Medicare card last week in the mail and, believe me, I am doing the hallelujah dance because I only have seven more days to worry and wait,” she said.

“

I hope we have a thousand people show up for the open house, and I hope hundreds of them come up to me with ideas about how we can do even more in this area.”

— Developer Tony Krsnich other apartment buildings in the city. Three of the four floors of the building have ceilings that expose the huge, wooden timbers used in early 20th century construction. Brick walls also are left exposed, and Krsnich has kept many unique features — like the large built-in safe — that were used when the building served as one of the larger grocery warehouses in the state.

Krsnich said the historical elements of the building have been a factor in attracting strong interest from renters but not the only factor.

“I think people really like that there is a creative culture over here,” said Krsnich, who estimated the average age of tenants in the building was 30 and that artist and musician were the most common professions.

Future developments are expected to center on making the area an arts district. Krsnich already has begun to brand the area near Eighth and Pennsylvania streets as the Warehouse Arts District.

Krsnich and his investors have begun work to

L AWRENCE J OURNAL -W ORLD convert the late 1800sera Ciderworks Building, 812 Pa., into an art gallery and event space. In addition, about a dozen artists have set up studios in an adjacent warehouse building just south of Eighth and Pennsylvania streets.

“We believe we’ll have the same type of success with the arts and event space as we have had with the apartments,” Krsnich said.

“We’ve already booked several weddings for 2013 in the cider building. They’ve all been KU alums from Kansas City who have been looking for a cool venue in Lawrence.”

The success of the apartments, though, also has Krsnich looking at options to build a new apartment development near the Eighth and Pennsylvania intersection. Krsnich already owns the vacant lot at the southwest corner of the intersection, but he said he’s also exploring options for property that is farther south of the intersection.

Friday’s open house is scheduled to include a ribbon cutting and remarks from various local and state officials from 5 p.m. to 6 p.m. The city provided $1.39 million worth of public infrastructure improvements and other incentives to assist the Poehler project.

The event also will feature five separate art shows in buildings near the Eighth and Pennsylvania intersection.

Praeger She will participate in an online chat at 10 a.m. on WellCommons.com. Submit your questions at any time at WellCommons. com/chats.

Praeger, a Lawrence resident and Kansas University graduate, is responsible for regulating all insurance sold in Kansas and overseeing the nearly 1,700 insurance companies and more than 94,000 agents licensed to do business in the state.

She has already made an appointment for next month with her primary care doctor.

But for her four sons, who range from 32 to 39, the worry will continue until Jan. 1, 2014. All of them have congenitally high blood pressure. Two of them are carpenters and have lost their jobs and do not have health insurance.

One of them has a herniated disk and hasn’t sought treatment. The other one had digestive issues that caused him to seek treatment in a hospital emergency room and that ultimately caused him to go into bankruptcy.

“When you are uninsured, you literally make the decision to not go to the doctor,” Gronborg said. “These types of decisions are being made all over the United States every single day.”

She’s heard them over and over as vice president of Missouri Health Care For All, a nonpartisan, grass-roots organization that advocates for access to affordable, high-quality care for all Missourians.

She said a working couple who lived across the street from her also filed bankruptcy because they had a child with cystic fibrosis and the insurance company capped the amount of money that it would provide for the child’s condition.

“That can happen no

She has been insurance commissioner since 2003. She was elected previously to the Kansas Senate in 1992, 1996 and 2000, and before that served one term in the Kansas House of Representatives.

While in the Legislature, she worked to gain passage of patient protection laws, external review of health plans and insurance, and the Kansas expansion of children’s health insurance. In 2001 she led the successful campaign for mental health parity in Kansas.

Praeger was president of the National Association of Insurance Commissioners in 2008. She serves as chairwoman of the NAIC Health Insurance and Managed Care Committee and a member of other NAIC committees and task forces. more because of the Affordable Care Act, and it won’t happen to adults after 2014,” she said.

“The Affordable Care Act was given the title the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, and often patient protection is overlooked and that is what we are talking about today.”

Pollack said he thought the federal legislation cleared its biggest hurdle when the Supreme Court upheld the law.

“It is possible that the November elections might change the political status of all this, but, barring that, I think the Affordable Care Act is in a stable position,” he said.

“I think the biggest threat has now been passed, but we will see if the elections have any effect on changing any of this.”

BRIEFLY Church to offer school supplies, clothing

‘Showing gratitude for what we have’

The Stull United Methodist Church will distribute back-toschool clothing and supplies to families in need from 8 a.m. to 11 a.m. Aug. 11 at the church, 1596 E. 250 Road in Lecompton.

Seventy-five backpacks will be available for pickup on a first-come, first-served basis.

Clothing for girls and boys of all sizes will be available.

There is no charge or proof of income requirement.

Officer at hearing: Bomb found in TV A Leavenworth police officer and bomb technician testified Wednesday he removed a pipe bomb from a television inside a 20-year-old Lawrence man’s residence early on July 8.

Officer Joe Tavano said at a preliminary hearing for Dakota Jackson Kunkle that he wore a suit and entered the residence in the 700 block of West 25th Street that had been evacuated. Lawrence police had called the Leavenworth bomb squad after they were investigating a report of gunfire in the area.

After Wednesday’s hearing, District Judge Michael Malone ordered Kunkle to stand trial on Oct. 9 on one count of criminal use of an explosive. Prosecutor Kathleen Britton, an assistant Douglas County district attorney, said Kunkle put Tavano at risk when the officer had to go inside the residence to defuse the device.

Defense attorney Craig Stancliffe indicated before the trial that he planned to argue the law was unconstitutionally vague in how it defines a commercial explosive. Stancliffe also said Kunkle had placed the device inside the TV as a hobby and planned to detonate it in the country.

But Britton said Kunkle told Lawrence police he had planned to detonate the device in a creek bed behind Dillons, 1015 W. 23rd St.

DAVID BARTHOLOMEW IS PICTURED BEFORE A LABYRINTH he created with his wife, Joan Clark, at 1661 E. 400 Road, west of Lawrence. Bartholomew hopes the labyrinth will be used as a place of meditation.

Couple create meditative labyrinth

By Alex Garrison acgarrison@ljworld.com

ONLINE: See the video at LJWorld.com

It’s an installation art piece, a portion of stewarded land, a sacred space for reflection and meditation. Call it what you like, but more than anything, its creator says, it’s a metaphor for life: Put one foot in front of the other, accept that there will be twists and turns, and you’ll eventually get to where you’re going.

David Bartholomew built what he calls the LunaBella Labyrinth on his land, about 10 minutes

west of Lawrence in Kanwaka, in May. Since then, he says, about 100 people have come through to pray, open themselves up to spiritual growth, or just enjoy three-eighths of a mile of exercise.

The labyrinth is mowed out of prairie grass, and it joins another feature outside his house: a cutout of his wife’s name, Joan, that’s visible in Google Earth. The circular labyrinth — it’s in the form of what’s called an 11th circuit or Chartres design — is meant to be a gift to more than just his wife.

“It comes from a place of wanting to show gratitude for what we have,”

he said. “Of wanting to give people a space for a prayer walk, a sanctuary that’s welcome and safe.”

Bartholomew, a stunts and lights coordinator in the film industry, cuts a path as wide as his push mower and maintains it with weeding that he says is also like a physicalmade-spiritual process.

The path isn’t a maze, meant to trip up the walker in false starts and a competitive reach for a destination, but rather a journey. For the walker, it’s a few quiet moments that can be spent to get clarity or peace.

Please see LABYRINTH, page 4A

If you go: The LunaBella Labyrinth is at 1661 E. 400 Road, west of Lawrence, and is open from sunrise to 8 p.m. weekdays and from sunrise to 5 p.m. on weekends. At-will donations are accepted.

Owners advise that bees are kept in the area.

Kansas is doing a poor job when it comes to children’s health, according to the 2012 Kids Count Data Book released Wednesday.

It ranked the state 32nd in the nation largely because 60,000 children do not have health insurance, and it has made no progress in getting more children covered during the past five years.

“It was little bit shocking that we rank so poorly on uninsured children,” said Shannon Cotsoradis, president and CEO of Kansas Action for Children.

She said it’s concerning because children without insurance are less likely to get immunizations and preventive care, and that often means they are more prone to be sick and miss school.

Also, the opportunity for a doctor to spot a chronic condition like diabetes in the early stages might be missed if a child doesn’t receive preventive care.

Cotsoradis said many of these children are eligible for the state’s heath insurance program for low-income children called HealthWave, but they are just difficult to reach. She said the state Please see KIDS, page 4A

Drought leaves some Kansas rivers dry early

By Amy Bickel The Hutchinson News

HUTCHINSON — In the drought of the 1930s, Mark Rogers’ grandfather sank barrels into the dry bed of the North Fork of the Ninnescah River near K-17 in an effort to catch the river’s underflow so the family’s cattle could have water.

The river went dry again in the 1950s and then, one last time that Rogers recalls, in 1966.

But the Ninnescah started going dry north of Cheney Reservoir a few weeks ago. And as he walked the river toward the lake Tuesday morning, the 64-year-old Rogers discovered a dry riverbed at his home on K-17.

Except, that is, for one 10inch hole that held 10 carp.

“They won’t last long,” Rogers said of the fish.

It’s only July and still more than a month before Kansas rivers typically reach a normal low mark.

But two years of drought has diminished many rivers across the region to mere trickles.

Drought sucked the last flow from the Ninnescah near Rogers’ home Monday, and experts say the conditions of the state’s waters

will only worsen as forecasters predict existing weather patterns to continue over the next few months.

But even a few chances of rain in the forecast won’t remedy the situation.

“It would have to take many rains that wouldn’t soak in somewhere else,” Rogers said. “We would need runoff to get into the creeks and to get into the river to help it flow again.”

With drought predicted to continue through at least September, coupled with increased water consumption from irrigators and others because of the lack of rainfall, Kansas’ rivers and streams will more than likely worsen to record levels in coming months, said U.S. Geological Survey hydrologist Brian Loving.

Hutchinson’s Arkansas River already has reached that point, he said. Last week, the Ark hit a low 25 cubic feet per second — the lowest in 52 years of record-keeping — beating out the previous record of 27 cfs set in October 1980.

But in weather like this, records will continually be broken, Loving said. On Tuesday, the river again recorded its weakest flow since 1959, at 21 cfs, and Loving said he wouldn’t

State seeks to halt reservoir releases WICHITA (AP) — Drought-stricken Kansas is asking the Corps of Engineers to halt releases of water from three of its small reservoirs for downstream navigation.

During a drought conference Wednesday, Gov. Sam Brownback asked U.S. Sen. Pat Roberts to help get the Corps to stop releases from the Milford, Perry and Tuttle Creek reservoirs while some upstream reservoirs remain at flood stage. be surprised if flow didn’t fall below 20 cfs by the end of the week.

Normally, the Ark should be flowing around 265 cfs this time of year.

The Ark stopped flowing at Great Bend a few days ago, Loving added.

Meanwhile, the Smoky Hill River near Ellsworth usually flows at 90 cfs in July. However, at 0.48 cfs, it is about to go dry, as well.

“It has only been dry once for a few hours,” Loving said. “This summer, it is probably going to go completely dry — something that has never happened before in 100 years.”

The governor also asked Roberts to support expanding the Kanopolis reservoir to hold 2 more feet of storage, which could help central Kansas during a future drought.

Brownback says he has allowed pumping from all of the state’s fishing lakes to water livestock.

Kansas has now declared all 105 counties in a drought emergency, with crop losses projected at $1.5 billion.

“A person has taken an action of power to come here and open up to the universe,” he said. “It can be subtle or profound — maybe so subtle you don’t realize it for some time — but it works to create an opportunity to listen and grow.”

It’s meant to be an ecumenical experience, and Bartholomew is open to all beliefs. He’s adopted a mantra of a favorite space in Los Angeles, where he lived before and after living here in the Midwest: Honor the wisdom of all traditions.

could reach more children if it decided to expand eligibility for its Medicaid program under the Affordable Care Act. “The research is really clear that when we cover parents, the kids are more likely to get the coverage they have access to. They are more likely to keep that coverage, and they are more likely to use that coverage,” she said.

Meanwhile, the state is preparing to move its Medicaid program to a managed care system called KanCare, which will include children on HealthWave. Cotsoradis fears that without proper outreach and education, more children could lose health insurance coverage.

Few could forget the weekslong hubbub over vote-counting in Florida in 2000 that led to a recount, a Supreme Court ruling and a national debate about the veracity of the system by which voters cast their ballots.

But 12 years later, the voting system is still far from fail-proof, according to a state-by-state report released Wednesday.

Almost half of states use voting systems for overseas and military voters that could be susceptible to hackers, says the report by Rutgers Law School and two good-governance groups: Common Cause Education Fund and the Verified Voting Foundation. Dozens of states lack proper contingency plans, audit procedures or voting machines that produce backup paper records in case something goes wrong.

Colorado, Delaware, Kansas, Louisiana, Mississippi and South Carolina are least prepared to catch problems and protect voter enfranchisement, the study showed. Minnesota, New Hampshire, Ohio, Vermont and Wisconsin are in the best shape.

Twenty-four states let overseas and military voters return their ballots through electronic means — such as the Internet, email or fax — that could fall victim to hackers or infringe on the right to a secret ballot. When the District of Columbia experimented with an online voting system in 2010, hackers broke in and changed votes to fictional characters.

“People understand cyber security threats,” said Susannah Goodman of Common Cause. “They understand you don’t send an email with your Social Security number as the subject line.”

And yet, Goodman said, states are asking people to send in emails with the subject line “Here’s my ballot.”

He’s been around spiritual centers of all stripes in Lawrence to spread the word of his space.

Joan Clark, an aromatherapist who lives on the land with Bartholomew, their two dogs and two cats, says that they generally ask visitors not to disturb them in their house, but often walkers just want to share a bit of gratitude or a moving experience.

“People say after they’ve walked it that they have a sense of coming home to themselves,” she said.

The labyrinth experience is about moving forward with mindfulness — letting go of weights and stresses on the way to the middle

and then on the way back out, receiving calm, spiritual guidance or whatever the walker’s looking for.

“That’s what it’s about — you get anything you want from it, but it’s about letting go,” she said. “People say, ‘Wow, I felt so peaceful now. How do I keep feeling that?’”

The walk through the labyrinth, it seems, may just as easily cause an epiphany or a few moments’ enjoyment in nature and the sun.

Regardless, you can take the time to put one foot in front of the other and, if nothing else, find a little peace.

Casey Foundation, ranked states based on 16 indicators instead of 10, and it ranked states in four categories and then gave an overall ranking.

Kansas received a 16th overall ranking. New Hampshire was No. 1, followed by Massachusetts and Vermont. Mississippi, New Mexico and Nevada ranked last.

Here’s how Kansas fared in the four categories:

8th in economic wellbeing.

12th in education.

32nd in health.

24th in family and community, which includes teen births and children in single-parent families.

Cotsoradis said she thought the No. 8 ranking in economic well-being was misleading because the state’s numbers rose in all four of the categories’ indicators: children in poverty,

children whose parents lack secure employment, children living in households with a high housing cost burden and teens not in school and not working.

“The reality is we see more kids living in poverty. We’ve got more parents who lack secure employment,” she said.

Cotsoradis said the report has so many differences that they couldn’t compare it with previous ones. But, she said the report’s data is more robust and it will be used when they go before state legislators to advocate on behalf of children.

No medical bills for some Colo. shooting victims

By Colleen Slevin and Kristen Wyatt Associated Press

DENVER — Three hospitals taking care of people wounded in the Colorado theater shooting said Wednesday they will limit or completely wipe out medical bills for the victims.

Some victims, many of them young, are uninsured and face mounting hospital bills.

Children’s Hospital Colorado announced it would use donations and its charity care fund to cover the medical expenses of the uninsured. For those who do have insurance, the hospital says it will waive all co-pays for shooting victims it is treating.

“We are committed to supporting these families as they heal,” according to a statement from the hospital, which treated six shooting victims.

HealthOne, which owns the Medical Center of Aurora and Swedish Medical Center, also says it will limit or eliminate charges based on the individual circumstances of the patients.

Those hospitals have treated 22 shooting victims.

There was no immediate word on what the other two hospitals would to do.

The victims, however, still face a long recovery ahead and the associated medical costs — without health insurance. And HealthOne cautioned that its policy may not apply to all doctors working in its hospitals.

Members of the public, along with Warner Bros., the studio that released the Batman movie “The Dark Knight Rises,” have contributed nearly $2 million

to help victims pay their bills. One family is raising money on its own online.

There’s no exact count of how many of the victims have no health insurance. But statistics suggest many of them might not be covered.

Nearly one in three Coloradans, or about 1.5 million, either have no health insurance or have coverage that is inadequate, according to a 2011 report by The Colorado Trust, a health care advocacy group.

The highest uninsured rate was among adults between 18 and 34.

And many of those injured in the shootings are in that age group.

State officials said they are not sure whether any of the victims qualify for emergency Medicaid assistance available to needy patients. Victims could also get financial assistance from a state program that helps people hurt during crimes.

Among the uninsured victims of the movie-theater attack is a 23-year-old aspiring comic, Caleb Medley, who is in critical condition with a head wound and whose wife, Katie, gave birth to their first child, Hugo, on Tuesday.

His family and friends said they have set a goal of raising $500,000 to cover his hospital bills and other expenses and were nearly halfway there on Wednesday.

“All the money that is donated is going straight to Caleb, Katie and Hugo to help them with medical bills, getting back on their feet, help with the baby items,” friend Michael West said. “Anything and everything that they need.”

AIDS experts: Focus not enough WASHINGTON — Tackling the female side of the AIDS epidemic means going far beyond today’s global focus on pregnant women, specialists told the world’s largest AIDS meeting Wednesday.

Already women make up half the world’s HIV infections. Adolescent girls are at particular risk in the hardesthit parts of the world, and protecting them requires addressing the poverty, violence and discrimination that too many women experience around the world, said UNICEF Deputy Executive Director Geeta Rao Gupta.

“These adolescent girls and young women, our sisters and daughters, represent an unfinished agenda in the AIDS response,” she told the gathering.

She echoed what has become a recurring theme of the meeting since U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said Monday gender equity is crucial to protecting women.

Sally Ride sparks debate on coming out

By David Crary Associated Press

NEW YORK — Pioneering astronaut Sally Ride, who relished privacy as much as she did adventure, chose an appropriately discreet manner of coming out.

At the end of an obituary that she co-wrote with her partner, Tam O’Shaughnessy, they disclosed to the world their relationship of 27 years.

That was it.

As details trickled out after Ride’s death on Monday, it became clear that a circle of family, friends and co-workers had long known of the same-sex relationship and embraced it.

For many millions of others, who admired Ride as the first American woman in space, it was a revelation — and it sparked a spirited discussion about privacy vs. public candor in regard to sexual orientation.

AP Photo/American Library Association

IN THIS JUNE 29, 2008, PHOTO made available by the American Library Association, Sally Ride, foreground, and Tam O-Shaughnessy discuss the role of women in science and how the earth’s climate is changing during an ALA conference in Anaheim, Calif.

Some commentators, such as prominent gay blogger Andrew Sullivan of the Daily Beast, second-

guessed Ride’s decision to opt for privacy.

“She had a chance to expand people’s horizons and young lesbians’ hope and self-esteem, and she chose not to,” he wrote. “She was the absent heroine.”

Others were supportive of Ride’s choices.

Episcopal Bishop Gene Robinson of New Hampshire, who in 2003 became the first openly gay bishop in the Anglican world, noted that both he and Ride were baby boomers who grew up “in a time when coming out was almost unthinkable.”

Robinson is 65. Ride was 61 when she died of pancreatic cancer.

“For girls who had an interest in science and wanted to go places women had not been allowed to go, she was a tremendous role model,” Robinson said Wednesday. “The fact that she chose to keep her identity as a lesbian private — I

honor that choice.”

However, Robinson said he had a different standard for younger gays — to the point of insisting that his own clergy in New Hampshire be open about their sexuality if they are gay or lesbian.

“While there is still discrimination and coming out will still have repercussions, the effect of those repercussions are vastly reduced now,” Robinson said. “I believe that times have changed.”

There’s no question that gays and lesbians overall are coming out now at a higher rate and an earlier age than those of previous generations. According to the LGBT Movement Advancement Project, adults aged 30-54 are 16 times more likely to be closeted than those under 30.

Aside from Ride, no other astronaut of any nation has come out as gay.

Study: Medicaid expansion could be a lifesaver

By Ricardo Alonso-Zaldivar Associated Press

WASHINGTON — States that expand their Medicaid programs under President Barack Obama’s health care law may end up saving thousands of lives, a medical journal report released Wednesday indicates.

Until now, the Medicaid debate has been about budgets and states’ rights.

But a statistical study by Harvard researchers in the New England Journal of Medicine found a 6 percent drop in the adult death rate in Arizona, Maine and New York, three states that have recently expanded coverage for low-income residents along the general lines of the federal health care law.

The study found that for every 176 adults covered under expanded Medicaid, one death per year would be prevented.

“Policymakers should be should be aware that major changes in Medicaid — either expansions or reductions in coverage — may have significant effects on the health of vulnerable populations,” wrote the researchers from the Harvard School of Public Health.

Medicaid is a federalstate program for lowincome and severely disabled people. It covers about 60 million people in the United States. The new law assigned Medicaid a major role in expanding coverage, accounting for about half the 30 million uninsured people expected to gain insurance as a result of the health overhaul.

But the Supreme Court last month ruled that states have the leeway to reject the law’s Medicaid expansion, which is geared to reach mostly uninsured adults without children and with annual incomes up to about $15,400. As a consequence, the Congressional Budget Office projects 3 million fewer people will gain coverage. Although the CBO still expects most states will expand their programs to some degree, the agency’s nonpartisan analysts project that it may take longer than a decade for some governors and legislatures to decide.

Some governors in Republican-led states, including Texas and Florida, have rejected the Medicaid expansion since the high court’s ruling. Many remain on the fence, awaiting the outcome of the November elections and GOP promises to repeal the law.

Kansas Republican Gov. Sam Brownback has been an ardent opponent of the ACA, but he has not given a definitive answer on whether he would expand Medicaid, which could affect more than 150,000 Kansans.

Although Washington will pay all of the cost of the expansion for the first three years, then scale back to a 90 percent share, Republican governors say Medicaid is already too costly and the Obama administration repeatedly has blocked their efforts to streamline the program.

The New England Journal study seems destined to be swept up immediately into the debate. Critics are certain to point out that its lead author, Dr. Benjamin Sommers, is on temporary assignment from Harvard working in a policy division of the federal Department of Health and Human Services, which is carrying out Obama’s overhaul.

International audition: Romney faces high stakes

By Kasie Hunt Associated Press

LONDON — Mitt Romney — a one-term governor untested on the world’s political stage — faces high stakes in the coming week during visits to England, Israel and Poland.

It’s a trip that amounts to an international audition.

The Republican presidential candidate is seeking to persuade voters back home to elect him their leader in a complex, dangerous world. And his trip will invite comparisons to Barack Obama’s successful overseas 2008 tour before he won the White House.

Romney, whose decades in private business gave him ample exposure to international affairs, hopes to prove that he is no novice on foreign policy. At the same time he’ll be highlighting a key part of his resume — the successful Salt Lake City Olympics he managed — with a visit to the opening days of the London Games. He’s also planned a series of meetings — and photo events — with political leaders in the three countries he’s visiting in hopes of projecting an image of leadership.

His itinerary is limited to a few tightly controlled appearances in countries that are close allies of the United States, suggesting

REPUBLICAN PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE, former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney speaks Tuesday in Reno, Nev. Romney, a one-term governor untested on the international stage -- faces high stakes in his visits to England, Israel and Poland. that Romney knows there are risks as well as potential benefits to his trip.

Romney will be visiting two countries in Europe, a region he’s spent most of his campaign criticizing.

Beyond that, he’s certain to face pressure to outline where he stands on such weighty matters as missile defense, Afghanistan troop levels, violence raging in Syria, the nuclear threat from Iran and the Middle East peace process, putting him on the spot to add details to a foreign policy vision that so far has been short on them.

He also faces the tricky task of contrasting himself with Obama while staying

true to his promise not to openly assail the president while on foreign soil, honoring longstanding tradition that American politicians don’t criticize their government while abroad.

Drawing implicit contrasts with the president also could be difficult because Romney has so far not outlined sharp foreign policy differences with his Democratic opponent.

The sheer logistics of putting together an overseas political trip could stress a campaign still trying to transition from the primary season and struggling to compete against Obama’s battle-tested reelection machine.

Firearms sales are surging in the wake of the Colorado movie massacre as buyers express fears about both personal safety and lawmakers who are using the shooting to seek new weapons restrictions.

In Colorado, the site of Friday’s shooting that killed 12 and injured dozens of others, gun sales jumped in the three days that followed. The state approved background checks for 2,887 people who wanted to purchase a firearm — 25 percent more than the average Friday to Sunday period in 2012 and 43 percent more than the same interval the week prior.

Dick Rutan, owner of Gunners Den in suburban Arvada, Colo., said requests for concealed-weapon training certification “are off the hook.”

Day-to-day gun sales frequently fluctuate, but the numbers also look strong outside of Colorado, too.

USDA: Drought will push up food prices in 2013

By Steve Karnowski Associated Press

MINNEAPOLIS — The drought gripping more than half the country is a major reason why consumers can expect to pay 3 percent to 4 percent more for groceries next year, the U.S. Department of Agriculture said Wednesday.

Milk, eggs, beef, poultry and pork prices will all be affected because the drought has pushed up prices for feed, and that will eventually translate into higher prices for steaks, hamburger, pork chops and chicken. The good news for cost-conscious consumers is that prices for fruits and vegetables, as well as processed foods, aren’t affected as much by the drought.

Exactly how much more people might pay for a pound of hamburger, for example, isn’t known because those prices are affected by lots of factors, including how much of the increase a given supermarket might pass along to the consumer. But beef prices as a whole are expected to see the biggest jump at 4 percent to 5 percent, according to the USDA. Dairy product prices are forecast to climb 3.5 percent to 4.5 percent; poultry and egg prices are projected to rise 3 percent to 4 percent; and pork prices are expected to rise 2.5 percent to 3.5 percent in 2013, the agency said.

“In 2013 as a result of this drought we are looking at above-normal food price inflation. ... Consumers are certainly going to feel it,” USDA economist Richard Volpe said.

BRIEFLY Senate OKs Dem tax-cut bill WASHINGTON — Democrats pushed a yearlong extension of tax cuts for all but the highest-earning Americans through the Senate on Wednesday, giving Democrats a significant political victory on a measure that is fated to go no further in Congress.

Senators approved the Democratic bill by a near party-line 51-48 vote, with Vice President Joe Biden presiding over the chamber in case his vote was needed to break a tie. Minutes earlier, lawmakers voted 54-45 to kill a rival Republican package that would have included the best-off in the tax reductions.

The $250 billion Democratic measure would extend tax cuts in 2013 for millions of Americans that otherwise would expire in January. But it would deny those reductions to individuals making over $200,000 yearly and couples earning at least $250,000.

The vote also served as a counterpoint to the GOPrun House, which next week will approve tax cuts nearly identical to the $405 billion

Republican plan the Senate rejected Wednesday.

North Korean leader Kim is married SEOUL, SOUTH KOREA — North Korea ended weeks of speculation Wednesday by confirming that the mystery woman beside young leader Kim Jong Un at recent public events is indeed his wife, “comrade Ri Sol Ju.” The news was buried in a state TV report about Kim’s tour of a new amusement park, delivered casually by a newscaster who gave no details about Ri, including how long she and Kim have been married.

Kim, who inherited rule of North Korea from his father, Kim Jong Il, seven months ago, has been seen with Ri at a concert, a kindergarten visit and other events recently, but state media did not mention her before now.

Analysts said the announcement was a calculated move by Kim and his advisers as they forge the image of the 20-something leader who took power following the December death of Kim Jong Il.

Normal grocery price inflation is about 2.8 percent a year, Volpe said, so even a 3 percent increase is slightly higher than usual. The USDA kept its projected food price increase for 2012 steady at 2.5 percent to 3.5 percent, saying average retail food prices were flat for the first half of 2012 thanks to unusually low fruit and vegetable prices as well as lower prices for milk and pork.

The new forecasts are the agency’s first food price projections to factor in the drought, though experts have been warning for a few weeks that prices will rise. As fields dry out and crops wither across much of the country’s midsection, prices for corn, soybeans and other commodities have soared in anticipation of tight supplies. That means farmers and ranchers will have to pay more to feed their livestock, and those costs eventually get passed on to consumers.

Food prices typically climb about 1 percent for every 50 percent increase in average corn prices, according to agricultural economists.

Processed foods aren’t affected as much because feed costs don’t account for as much of their price tag.

And fruits and vegetables aren’t expected to be any more costly because they are irrigated even in normal weather. The USDA is projecting an overall 2 percent to 3 percent increase for all fruits and vegetables next year, the same as it expects this year.

The drought now covers around 60 percent of the continental United States, the largest area since the epic droughts of the 1930s and 1950s.

Risky business No matter how good a farmer is, he or she can’t control Mother Nature.

T

he current heat and drought in America’s heartland is taxing to everyone, but no one feels the effects of this kind of weather more than farmers.

As the number of farmers has declined in the United States, fewer people understand the financial risks farmers take every year and the devastating impact weather like we’re having this year can have on a farming operation. In tight economic times, it becomes easier to criticize federal farm policies such as crop insurance, without really understanding that many of those programs are what ensures that Americans have a reliable, affordable supply of food.

Recent news report offer a reminder of the impact of one variable over which farmers have no control: the weather. The Midwest corn crop is close to a total loss and soybeans are shriveling in the sun.

Cattlemen are being forced to sell their cattle sooner than they want because there isn’t enough grass in the pastures to sustain them. In many cases, those forced sales are more than a one-year setback.

An Associated Press story in Wednesday’s Journal-World explained how it will take years for pastures to recover from the drought and for farmers to rebuild cowcalf herds. The story focused on one Kansas rancher who had carefully bred cattle for years to build a strong herd, much of which he now must sell off. He can rebuild his herd by buying cattle, but it will take far longer to replace the genetic breeding that went into his current herd.

Crop prices are high, but most farmers will have no fall crops to sell. Federal crop insurance payments will be enough to repay their production loans and allow them to plant again next year but probably not enough to cover many other expenses such as fuel and machinery costs.

There almost certainly are ways to improve crop insurance programs and make them less costly for taxpayers, but revisions to those programs need to recognize the ways farming differs from many other businesses. Farmers can be required to pay a higher percentage of their crop insurance premiums, but that cost must be passed on in the price of food or farmers will be driven out of business because they can’t make a profit. Farmers can respond somewhat to market demands, but no amount of better business management can prevent the kind of devastation that Mother Nature is visiting on farmers this year.

An important part — perhaps the most important part — of U.S. farm policy is to help American farmers stay in business so they can provide the food and fiber on which the nation depends. A year like this offers a strong reminder of the risks of farming, as well as the critical role farmers play.

Real heroes emerge in Colorado “Am I my brother’s keeper?”

— Genesis 4:9 A few words about the tragedy in Aurora, Colo.: In “Dark Knight Triumphant,” the second chapter of a four-part Batman graphic novel, there is an incident in which a goggle-eyed, mentally disturbed young man with orange hair shoots up a movie theater. Three people are killed.

That scene, published in 1986, carries a new and frightful resonance now. How could it not? Last week in Aurora, a goggle-eyed and perhaps mentally disturbed young man with orange hair allegedly shot up a theater playing a midnight showing of the new Batman movie, “The Dark Knight Rises.” A dozen people were killed, 58 wounded. Life imitates art imitating life.

That graphic novel was a sensation far beyond the comic book shops. Rolling Stone noted its “bold thematic twists.”

The Los Angeles Times called it “a vivid psychological study.”

The Washington Post praised its “edgy realism.”

Writer and artist Frank Miller pictured an aged Batman coming out of retirement to save a Gotham City overrun by nihilistic terrorists.

Batman’s town had become a lawless place where the good

What we can know is that in the awful moment of decision, people covered one another, took care of one another, saved one another.” people were cowed mute by fear. It was a new take on the ancient central conceit of the American superhero myth.

Meaning the idea that we are watched over from the rooftops above by a man (or woman) with powers and abilities beyond those of mortal men and women, a capable somebody who will fight what we cannot.

Look! Up in the sky! It’s a bird, it’s a plane, it’s somebody who will see that the bad thing doesn’t happen and that the bad people get what’s coming to them, somebody who will, just when things look hopeless, save us.

Lord knows we could use some saving.

Could have used it at Columbine and at Virginia Tech.

Could have used it in Tucson. Could have used it last week in Aurora.

You know what happened there, of course. How a man left the theater and returned through the exit door wearing body armor. How he threw smoke grenades. How he started shooting.

In a place of escapism, where people had gone to enjoy the fantasy of a man who could fight what we cannot, hell broke loose and chaos reigned. As, periodically, they must. In a gun-besotted nation where the right of each citizen to possess as many weapons of mass destruction as he or she wants is considered sacred and inviolable, who can expect otherwise? We are all vulnerable, always.

And yet, vulnerability is not surrender.

That awful night in Aurora. Jonathan Blunk, a 26-yearold Navy veteran, shielded his girlfriend from bullets with his own body. He died.

Matt McQuinn, 27 and Alex Teves, 24, also shielded their girlfriends. They died, too.

Stephanie Davis, 21 years old, dropped down to the floor where Allie Young, 19, was bleeding out from a bul-

let wound to the neck. Allie told her to run but Stephanie wouldn’t. She stayed there, applying pressure to the wound even as the gunman kept shooting. Both young women survived.

In an instant, called upon to be heroes, ordinary people in an ordinary suburb became exactly that.

Frank Miller wrote about a vigilante who came back to save the people. We cannot know if that inspired the orange-haired man in Colorado — you will not read his name here — to do what police say he did or whether his inspiration came from something else equally senseless. What we can know is that in the awful moment of decision, people covered one another, took care of one another, saved one another.

It is the single hopeful note from the carnage of that evening, the one example worth holding and cherishing and carrying forward from this awful time, not least because it gives the lie to that central conceit of the American superhero myth.

You see, heroes don’t come from above.

Dewhurst counters the Mword accusation by going nuclear. He notes darkly that Cruz is an eloquent speaker and a Harvard lawyer just like you know who. Dewhurst’s long legislative career presents Cruz — as Mitt Romney’s business career presents Barack Obama — with opportunities for histrionic (and synthetic) indignation about this or that vote or compromise. But, then, Cruz’s record as a lawyer has left him vulnerable to similar rhetoric from Dewhurst’s campaign about some Cruz clients who were unsavory (a “judgebribing felon”) or impolitic (a Chinese tire company).

If Dewhurst wins, Capitol Hill gets a veteran conservative legislator. If Cruz wins, congressional conservatism’s small but valuable Doesn’tPlay-Well-With-Others Caucus adds a member.

It is unclear whether it speaks well of them that they, like Noël Coward’s mad dogs and Englishmen, will go out in the midday sun, even to vote in what resembles a dispute about a saint or a surplice.

— George Will is a columnist for Washington Post Writers Group.

To the editor: Like some of my architect colleagues, I’m not very good at math. After reading Chad Lawhorn’s excellent article (Journal-World, July 24) about the proposed “rec” center, I’m trying to understand how an 800-car parking lot will adequately serve the planned facilities. According to the article, the complex “could include a “10,000seat track and field stadium.”

Assistant associate athletic director for Kansas University Sean Lester is quoted as saying, “these events attract thousands of people, not hundreds.” Also mentioned in the article, “The fieldhouse could accommodate about 1,900 spectators with rollout bleachers, but additional spectators could watch from a mezzanine level.”

After the first “rec“ center event, will it become obvious that more parking is needed and that a three-story parking garage must therefore be built over the 800-car parking lot? It would only add a few million dollars to a project whose financial feasibility is already suspect. But wait! Event attendees could be charged a substantial parking fee, which could pay for the parking garage!

Or perhaps some event attendees could park at the downtown parking garage/ library and ride the “T” to the “rec” center.

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for July 26, 1912: “ColoYEARS rado is to connect AGO with the Golden IN 1912 Belt of Kansas with the view of making this a great improved highway from Kansas City to Denver. Dr. A. P. Hults this morning received word from the Denver Chamber of Commerce that that city would do its part toward accomplishing this purpose.”

“Horse racing is coming into its own in Lawrence and Douglas County again this year. Not since the old racing days has there been the interest in this sport that is being evidenced this year, and a number of local owners have horses that are running in fast time on the Woodland Park track.”

Jayhawks slated for 4 Big Mondays

COLLEGE FOOTBALL

Reluctant recruits

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Kansas University’s basketball team will play four ESPN Big Monday games during the 2012-13 season — most of any team in the Big 12 Conference — the league announced Wednesday.

The Jayhawks, who will be featured on Jan. 14 versus Baylor, Jan. 28 at West Virginia, Feb. 11 versus Kansas State and Feb. 25 at Iowa State, have been scheduled four appearances for the seventh straight season.

Baylor, Texas and West Virginia will play three Big Monday games, Kansas State two and Oklahoma, Oklahoma State and Iowa State one.

TCU and Texas Tech will have no Big Monday appearances.

KU has played KSU and Iowa State four times and Baylor three times on Big Monday in the Big 12 era.

KU is 45-16 all-time on Big Monday — 25-1 at home and 20-15 on the road, with a 26-8 record under coach Bill Self. KU has won 18 straight Big Monday games in Allen Fieldhouse, with a 14-0 mark under Self.

This marks the fourth straight season KU will have had two Big Monday games at home and two away. In 2009, KU had one home and three away.

Here’s the complete Big Monday schedule: Jan. 14: Baylor at KU, 8 p.m.; Jan. 21: Oklahoma State at Baylor, 4:30 p.m., Texas at Oklahoma, 8:30 p.m.; Jan. 28: KU at West Virginia, 8 p.m.; Feb. 4: Texas at West Virginia, 8 p.m.; Feb. 11: K-State at KU, 8 p.m.; Feb. 18: West Virginia at K-State, 8 p.m.; Feb. 25: KU at Iowa State, 8 p.m.; March 4: Baylor at Texas, 8 p.m.

The Big 12 is expected to release its full slate of league games in August.

KU, others eye Penn St. departures; players vow loyalty

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

Kansas University football coach Charlie Weis on Tuesday might have been one of the only coaches to talk about the idea of adding Penn State transfers to his roster. But he was hardly the only one thinking about it.

According to an ESPN.com article by college football reporters Joe Schad and Don Van Natta Jr., a handful of unnamed Penn State players have been offered “up to 50 scholarships” by football programs across the country.

As his team tries to rally together for the start of the upcoming football season, PSU coach Bill O’Brien told ESPN. com that he would like any coaches interested in talking to his players to call him as a

professional courtesy. While reaching out to O’Brien is not required, coaches like Weis have been asked to contact Penn State in some manner.

To that end, the article said the Penn State athletic department had been “flooded with faxes and emails from other schools.”

According to the NCAA’s punishment, any Penn State players interested in transferring would be free to do so and would not have to sit out a season. They also would not count against their new school’s scholarship limit. In addition, Penn State is not allowed, in any way, to restrict a player from pursuing a possible transfer.

O’Brien, who called the activity “an NFL free-agent system” in college sports, has become increasingly upset

with the way things have unfolded.

“Our players are in our building right now and they don’t want to leave because there are coaches from other schools in the parking lot waiting to see them,” O’Brien told ESPN.com. “These kids don’t want to leave Penn State. They want to play for Penn State. It is my opinion these coaches should leave them alone, but if they don’t want to leave them alone, they should make sure they give me a call before they try to recruit them.”

Based on his comments Tuesday, which emphasized the need for respect and compassion for Penn State’s players and coaches, it’s unlikely that Weis was one of those coaches in the PSU parking lot Wednesday.

However, according to Frank Bodani, of the York Daily Record, KU was one of eight schools to contact Penn State’s Kyle Baublitz, a 6-foot5, 275-pound defensive tackle who is set to enter his third season with the Nittany Lions. Baublitz’s father, Steve, confirmed to Bodani that his son was contacted by Baylor, Boston College, Cincinnati, Hawaii, Houston, Kansas, Texas Tech and West Virginia. However, on his Facebook page, Baublitz said he was committed to staying at Penn State.

The idea of KU’s adding a defensive tackle certainly would make sense, as Weis and defensive coordinator Dave Campo have said repeatedly that upgrading KU’s D-line Please see FOOTBALL, page 3B

Angels hit Royals hard; Hochevar tossed for hitting back

THE ANGELS’ MIKE TROUT, LEFT, SCORES ON A WILD PITCH by Kansas City starting pitcher Luke Hochevar, right, during the first inning Wednesday in Anaheim, Calif. The Angels won, 11-6.

ANAHEIM, CALIF. (AP) — Kansas City was able to get Jered Weaver’s pitch count up high enough to get him out of the game after five innings. Unfortunately for K.C., the Los Angeles Angels scored enough against Luke Hochevar and the bullpen to make a late rally by the Royals impossible.

Weaver won his seventh straight start to tie a careerbest, Torii Hunter went 4-for5 with a homer and three RBIs, and the Angels also got home runs from Mike Trout and Bobby Wilson in an 11-6 victory over the Kansas City Royals on Wednesday.

Hochevar (6-9) was ejected in the fourth inning by plate umpire Bob Davidson after hitting Trout — immediately following a leadoff homer by Wilson that gave the Angels an 8-0 lead. That didn’t sit well with manager Ned Yost, who argued with Davidson while Everett Teaford came in from the bullpen.

“He thought I hit Trout because I gave up the home run, but I’m not that type of player. And I’m not going to just start drilling guys out of frustration,” Hochevar said.

“I don’t do that. I’m pitching

“

(The umpire) thought I hit Trout because I gave up the home run, but I’m not that type of player. ... I’m pitching the guy in, and one gets away and hits him. ” — Royals pitcher Luke Hochevar

The Angels parlayed two Kansas City errors into three more runs in the second inning despite getting only one ball out of the infield. Hunter hit a two-run single after a fielding error by first baseman Eric Hosmer on Wilson’s sacrifice bunt and a throwing error to first by third baseman Mike Moustakas on a potential double-play grounder

by Trout. Hunter scored the Halos’ sixth run on a dribbler that Hochevar fielded to the right of the mound before getting the out at first.

Weaver (13-1) threw 101 pitches over five innings, allowing two runs and three hits while his AL-leading ERA rose from .220 to 2.27 because of Billy Butler’s tworun homer in the fifth.

Butler’s 20th homer came after the Angels had staked Weaver to an 8-0 lead. Jeff Francoeur added a three-run shot in the eighth against Scott Downs to snap an 0-for-15 drought and slice the margin to 8-5, but Trout and Hunter homered backto-back in the bottom half against Luis Coleman.

the guy in, and one gets away and hits him. But he made his call, and it is what it is.”

The right-hander was charged with eight runs — six earned — and nine hits in his three-plus innings, along with two wild pitches. Hochevar was 3-1 with a 2.50 ERA over his previous six starts, a stretch that began with back-to-back scoreless outings — including a shutout against Tampa Bay. Hochevar gave up singles to his first three batters, all of whom scored. Trout came home on a wild pitch to Mark Trumbo. Hunter scored on a groundout by Kendrys Morales, and former Royal Alberto Callaspo delivered Trumbo with the first of his O Box score on page 4B two doubles.

U.S. women rally past France, 4-2, in Olympic soccer opener GLASGOW, SCOTLAND — An early start to the Olympics turned into an early hole for the U.S. women’s soccer team, which gave up two quick goals before unleashing an attack the rest of the world will find hard to stop.

Abby Wambach used her size and strength to put in a header, Alex Morgan applied her speed to chip one over the goalkeeper, and Carli Lloyd broke the tie with a 25-yard rocket. All of which sent the two-time defending gold medalists to a 4-2 victory over France on Wednesday as they opened their London Games far from London.

Morgan added an insurance goal — created by a nice run from Tobin Heath — for the Americans, which began play two days before the opening ceremony and 400-plus miles from the British capital. Soccer starts its Olympics early so it has time to play a full tournament of games.

Raiders begin postseason

John Young/Journal-World File Photo

LAWRENCE RAIDERS PITCHER TRENT JOHNSON DELIVERS to the plate against Millhouse on June 5 at Lawrence High. Either Johnson or Cam Solko will start for the Raiders as they begin postseason play today at the Class AAA zone tournament in Pittsburg.

Lawrence win two games today or win one game today and the double-elimination game, the Raiders will then play in the championship game at 6 p.m. Friday.

The Raiders enter the zone tournament with a record of 23-12, and Romme believes there are two keys for the team in order to advance to the American Legion State Tourna-

ment, Aug. 1-5 in Manhattan.

“Always, always, always pitching and defense,” Romme said.

“We’ve swung (the bats) pretty well all year long.”

FSHS, LHS adopt new concussion tests

By Benton Smith basmith@ljworld.com

Student-athletes at Lawrence and Free State high schools will now have access to one of the most widely used concussion-testing systems available.

With the Lawrence school district administration signing off on the plan this past week, Lawrence Memorial Hospital will provide LHS and FSHS athletes with access to ImPACT (immediate postconcussion assessment and cognitive testing), a computerized system widely used in the college and professional ranks.

The test will be available to athletes in every sport when the new school year begins.

ImPACT is a baseline neurocognitive test that measures how an individual’s brain works in its normal state. Using that information, it is easier to track any changes in the brain’s function after a concussion and determine when an athlete can safely return to participation in practices and competition.

Free State athletic director Mike Hill said ImPACT will be available on a voluntary basis — there is no mandate stating that every athlete must utilize it.

“It’s just an extra tool that parents can use to help ensure the safety of their kids,” Hill said, adding he thought it was important to give city athletes this option. “For my

kids, would I want this available? Absolutely, I would.”

Lawrence High athletic trainer Jeremy Goates also was glad the city’s athletes will have access to ImPACT. “I think it’s a really good program,” he said, “and the main key is it really helps to assist myself and the doctors on when to return athletes to play.”

Physicians ultimately make the return-to-play call, Goates said. ImPACT, he added, helps everyone involved look past sports and determine what is best for an individual in the long run.

“It really puts the athlete’s health in No. 1 priority,” Goates said.

Hill said LMH will pay for the testing, and a rep-

Louisville, N.C. State and SMU and others.”

Of Freeman, Biancardi wrote: “Freeman has excellent athleticism and a strong build, which help him draw contact and score old-fashioned three-point plays. He can make open shots out to 3-point range, but his percentage is tied to his shot selection. The more selective he is, the more effective he is. When he gets in the paint, he is a nightmare for opponents.

Overall, Freeman can be a bit streaky, but he is tough to stop when he gets on a roll. His top five are Duke, Kansas, Ohio State, UCLA and Villanova.”

KU is also now recruiting Boo Williams’ Troy Williams, a 6-6 small forward from Oak Hill Academy in Mouth of Wilson, Va. Barber and Williams have talked about attending the same college as a package deal. Williams is ranked No. 41 nationally.

No. 2-ranked Julius Randle, a 6-9 power forward from Prestonwood Christian in Plano, Texas, is also competing at the Super Showcase for the Notre Dame transfers This spring, quarterTexas Titans.

“

We want to let the nation know that we’re proud of who we are.”

— Penn State running back Michael Zordich, who tried to stem rumors of a mass exodus from the university’s troubled football program on Wednesday in a statement with two dozen teammates heads,” he quipped. “Yeah, both these guys really like being here. They’re doing well in school, which is always a little bit of a concern when you’re bringing in fifth-year guys. Hey, look at anyone that’s taken a fifth year somewhere else, they’re doing that to enhance their value to play on Sunday. They’re not doing it because they want to go to another school all of a sudden.”

New director of ops Although he will remain closely connected to the football program throughout this season, George Matsakis, who served as KU’s director of football operations under Mark Mangino, Turner Gill and Charlie Weis, has changed roles and will now serve as the assistant to the athletic director.

Matsakis, who was a college roommate of KU athletic director Sheahon Zenger’s, is in his 11th season at KU and also has made stops at Houston, Wyoming and Kansas State.

Taking Matsakis’ spot is Kevin Green, who worked on Weis’ staff at Notre Dame in 2008 and 2009 and spent the past two seasons as the chief financial officer for Hannah & Friends, the Weis’ nonprofit organization for people with special needs.

“When I got let go, if you were a Weis guy, yeah, you might as well start packing your boxes about five seconds after I was gone,” Weis said. “I told him if I took a head job, he’d be back and ready to go so he’ll be in there running the operations.”

Self on the road: KU coach Bill Self attended Wednesday night’s AAU Super Showcase showdown between Virginia Boo Williams and the Houston Defenders in Lake Buena Vista, Fla. Houston, which was led by twins Andrew and Aaron Harrison, rolled to a 73-54 victory.

Boo Williams has a pair of KU targets: Anthony Barber, a 6-2 point guard from Hampton (Va.) High, and Allerik Freeman, a 6-4 shooting guard from Findlay Prep in Henderson, Nev. Barber is ranked No. 9 and Freeman No. 39 nationally by Rivals.com.

Of Barber, ESPN’s Paul Biancardi wrote: “His nickname is Cat because he is quick with the ball.

Barber has outstanding end-to-end speed and is tremendous in transition, where he can take it all the way to the basket or drop off an assist. He understands how to change speeds and directions with the ball to be even more effective driving to the hoop, and the time invested to improving his shooting has paid off. He is becoming a dangerous threat in pick-and-roll action.

Defensively, he can stifle opponents as he gets right up on them with his quick feet and active hands. One of the elite point guards, Barber is hot and heavy among Alabama, Kansas,

Although the likelihood of any Nittany Lions leaving in the wake of the Jerry Sandusky scandal dipped Wednesday, when more than 30 PSU players held a joint news conference to announce they were staying, a couple of Penn State players said through spokespeople that they were keeping their options open. The most notable of those was sophomore running back Silas Redd, who is contemplating a move to USC. Still, with a large chunk of the PSU squad standing united in commitment to the school, O’Brien figures to have several familiar faces in blue and white when the Nittany Lions open fall camp on Aug. 6.

“We want to let the nation know that we’re proud of who we are,” said senior running back Michael Zordich, who on Wednesday stood with two dozen teammates and spoke on behalf of those who were staying put. “We’re the true Penn Staters, and we’re going to stick together through this.

We’re going to see this thing through, and we’re going to do everything we can for the university. We know it’s not going to be easy, but we know what we’re made of.”

Dear Annie: I am 33 years old and fed up with how distant my family is. I am disappointed with my grandparents for the way they behave.

I grew up around them, but they moved to Arizona when I was 19.

I thought we were close, but it seems we are growing further apart.

Sometimes they are in our town for several weeks, but we only hear from them once or twice.

One would think they would set a better example for maintaining family ties. They recently came back for three weeks, and we didn’t know they were in town until halfway through their trip. They took us out to eat and casually mentioned they are taking my two aunts and two of the grandkids to a resort for three days. We weren’t invited. In fact, when they are here, they focus all of their time and attention on one daughter and her kids and forget

the rest of us.

My grandparents won’t be around forever. I really want my daughter to meet all of her family while she has a chance. How do I change this? Is it even worth trying? It’s not really the same if they call more often only because I demand it. — Donny Dear Donny: You should talk to your grandparents and tell them how much you miss them and how their favoritism is having a negative impact on your feelings and their relationship with

Posey runs rings around ‘Louie’ As I’ve written before, comedian Louis C.K. has turned episodes of his sitcom “Louie” (9:30 p.m., FX) into miniaturized versions of independent movies, allowing guest stars to turn in remarkable performances.

This is especially true tonight, when Louie steps out on the town with the bookstore clerk (Parker Posey) he met in last week’s episode. Neither the audience nor Louie can tell if he’s out on the most exciting date of his life or the beginning of a waking nightmare.

Posey’s performance, while occasionally over-the-top, is often spellbinding. Don’t miss “Louie”; it’s the best thing you’ll see on television this week.

Wes Dening (“Big Brother Australia”) hosts “Code 9” (7 p.m., Disney), a special effects-driven, hidden-camera comedy show for kids and their parents. Every week, a family member will be outfitted with makeup and prosthetics and confront an unsuspecting relative with a good-natured prank.

TCM recalls the late Ernest Borgnine, who died July 8, with a 24-hour movie salute. Best known to TV fans for his signature 1960s sitcom “McHale’s Navy,” as well as “Airwolf” in the 1980s and his stint on “The Single Guy” in the mid-1990s, Borgnine was a rare Hollywood actor who could play the lovable lug and the violent heavy.

Borgnine won an Oscar as the lonely Bronx butcher in the 1955 film adaptation of Paddy Chayefsky’s teleplay “Marty” (8 p.m., TCM). In the 1953 drama “From Here to Eternity” (9:45 p.m.), Borgnine played the ultimate bully, Fatso, who beat Maggio (Frank Sinatra) to death. He was also in “The Wild Bunch” (midnight), the 1969 “anti-Western” that revolutionized the big-screen depiction of ultraviolent bloodshed.

Tonight’s other highlights

Alex and Dawn have a showdown on “Saving Hope” (8 p.m., NBC).

Charlie dates a smarter woman on “Anger Management” (8:30 p.m., FX).

A shock wave on “Burn Notice” (8 p.m., USA).

A missing person’s case begins to make sense on “Rookie Blue” (9 p.m., ABC).

Young Native Americans have a difficult time reconciling tribal ways with modern society on “Up Heartbreak Hill” on “POV” (9 p.m., PBS, check local listings).

An unusual case on “Suits” (9 p.m., USA).

BIRTHDAYS

Actress-singer Darlene Love is 71. Rock star Mick Jagger is 69.

your daughter. It’s not a “demand.” They cannot change their behavior if they are unaware of it. It may take some extra effort for them to remember this, and it’s OK to prompt them when necessary. Also, don’t hesitate to take the initiative whenever you want to speak to them.

Dear Annie: I know this is a bit out of your league, but I don’t know who else to ask. My son is a university student.

His major requires that he take several math classes. In every class, the professor is his worst teacher of the semester. They don’t explain anything, and they don’t give feedback on tests or quizzes. As a result, he does poorly.

I thought it was just my son or that university, but he now is taking a makeup math class at our local community college.

He says the same thing is happening with the pro-

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS

For Thursday, July 26: This year you become focused on home, family and your immediate circle. Others might try to distract you, yet they get nowhere. If you are single, you might attract someone who has difficulty with your level of depth. If you are attached, spend more time with your significant other.

The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult Aries (March 21-April 19) Deal with others individually. There is an element of confusion that marks your plans and interactions. Tonight: Togetherness works.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) You take quite a stand, and others immediately become challenging. See and understand how you provoke these responses.

Tonight: Sort through answers.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) Dive into your work and complete as many errands as possible. Deal with a partner on a oneon-one level. Tonight: Do for you.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) Tap into your innate creativity. You are a source of ever-changing ideas and solutions.

Tonight: Fun and games.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) You are energized and in touch with your needs. You might want to clarify a request from a partner, close friend or loved one.

Tonight: Head home.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Observe what is happening with a key person. Clarify a situation, rather than allowing confusion to drift deeper into plans and ideas. Tonight: Out and about.

jacquelinebigar.com

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Investigate and root out what might be going on with a daily matter or routine. Misunderstandings weave their way through this issue. Tonight: Do some shopping.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You must deal with an important project or decide to share some time with a special person in your life. You might not be aware of the implications of your actions.

Tonight: Consider starting your weekend early.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Take your time getting going. If you feel you need time off, take it now, as your dream life is active and you could be quite tired.

Tonight: Take a break designed just for you.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You might not realize what an unstoppable force you are. Others often look on with awe as you continue like the Energizer Bunny. Tonight: Make plans with friends.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Others observe your actions. You might get jittery with this knowledge. Understand that you are unique in your own right; that is what draws others to you. Tonight: In the limelight.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) Reach out for more information. You might be more perplexed than you realize and could be thinking on a different level from many other people. Tonight: Let your imagination plan your weekend.

fessor there. What is it about college math professors that makes them unfeeling, unhelpful and uncaring? Why can’t universities get them to treat their students better and be more helpful? — Cape Coral, Fla. Dear Florida: While we are certain some math professors do not explain things as clearly as they could, when this happens with every professor, in every environment, we have to assume your son is more than a little math-challenged.

As a college student, it is his responsibility to find a way to understand the material. Instead of blaming the professors, suggest to your son that he get some remedial math assistance. He should be able to find a ACROSS tutor on campus.
