Topeka pastor defeats Lawrence attorney in Democratic race By Scott Rothschild srothschild@ljworld.com

Pastor-turned-politician Tobias Schlingensiepen won Tuesday’s Democratic Party primary in the 2nd Congressional District over Lawrence attorney Robert Eye and Scott Barnhart, a

farmer from Ottawa. Regional voting was key in the close race that went back and forth all night between Eye and Schlingensiepen, of Topeka. In Douglas County, Eye topped Schlingensiepen 64 percent to 30 percent, while in the larger Shawnee

County, Schlingensiepen enjoyed a 64 percent to 26 percent advantage. Across the district, which stretches through most of eastern Kansas, Schlingensiepen ended with 40 percent of the vote, while Eye Please see PRIMARY, page 2A

City leaders continued to express enthusiasm for a proposed recreation center in northwest Lawrence on Tuesday as the City Commission received a number of new reports on the project. “This is a citizens’ facility,” Mayor Bob Schumm said. “The extra bonus to it is we can roll it out and use it as an economic development CITY tool as well.” Commissioners took no COMMISSION formal action on the project Tuesday, and the end of the meeting they said they would mull over the new information and direct city staff as needed in future meetings. The proposed city-owned youth fieldhouse combined with a Kansas University track and field and soccer complex at the northwest corner of Sixth Street and the South Lawrence Trafficway would generate $6.3 million in annual economic spending in the city, according to a report from Convention Sports and Leisure International.

THE LAWRENCE CITY COMMISSION got a look at new renderings on Tuesday of a proposed recreation center in northwest Lawrence, including this one that illustrates the basketball courts inside a 181,000-square-foot fieldhouse. Plans for the facility have been developed by Lawrence-based Paul Werner Architects and Gould Evans Architects.

Installation of cable median barrier to begin next week on K-10 By George Diepenbrock gdiepenbrock@ljworld.com

Construction is scheduled to begin Monday on two sections of a new cable median barrier on Kansas Highway 10 east of Lawrence, the Kansas Department of Transportation announced Tuesday. KDOT in July selected

Gray Beal Construction Co. of Topeka for the $1.15 million project that was prompted by a fatal collision in April 2011. Five-yearold Cainan Shutt was killed when an impaired driver near Eudora crossed the median and struck the minivan driven by Cainan’s grandfather. The project involves in-

day, the shoulders on both sides of K-10 medians will be closed through the work zone, and there will also be occasional daily lane closures on K-10. “There will be no lanewidth restrictions, and a 60 mph speed limit will be posted through the work zone throughout the project duration,” KDOT said.

CHLOE ANN PAYNE Chloe Ann Payne, of Lawrence, died August 4, 2012. Her husband, Elmer Joe Payne, preceded her in death. Private inurnment will be held at Topeka Cemetery.

DIANA GRISWOLD REEDER SCOTT Diana Griswold Reeder Scott of Lawrence and formerly of Fort Leavenworth, died August 6th, 2012. She was born March 31, 1923 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania to Stanley F. Griswold and Estelle Leary Griswold. Among her favorite memories were her boarding school years at St. Mary’s Hall in Faribault, Minnesota, her Army brat friends from her youth, especially at the Presidio in San Francisco, her Kappa Alpha Theta sisters at St. Lawrence University in Canton, New York, and the years she attended the “hops” at the USMA at West Point. She married Harry L. Reeder, Jr. in 1943 after he graduated from the Academy. She had first met Harry in 1935 when both their fathers were stationed in Panama. As an Army brat and Army wife, Diana resided throughout the contiguous United States as well as in Hawaii, Germany, Panama, and Colombia. She devoted countless hours to volunteer work. She wrote a weekly column, “From the Fort” for the Leavenworth Times, was a member of Daughters of the United States Army and Kappa Alpha Theta, volunteered at veterinary clinics, Cub Scouts, and the Officers’ Wives Clubs and Red Cross at every post where she lived including at the Naval War College and in Bogota, Colombia where the Gray Ladies were referred to as Pink Ladies. She served with the Sisters of Charity at Saint Mary’s College and volunteered for English as a Second Language, both in Leavenworth. Diana loved dogs and was Honorary Midwife to the Hounds at the Fort Leavenworth Hunt. Ever self depreciating, she was embarrassed to be honored as a recipient of the Paul Harris Fellow, claiming that the only important thing she’d ever done was “nurture Harry.” She also enjoyed quilting, cartooning, painting portraits, horseback riding, and playing tennis and bridge. Diana could always appreciate the ridiculous in any situation and entertained family and friends with her uniquely humorous perspective. Typically stoic, when she lost her eyesight in later years and was forced to give up reading, completing the NY Times crossword puzzles (in ink!) and playing bridge, she lamented that she had to stop playing bridge because she could no longer see her partners’ expressions across the bridge table to figure out what cards they held. Fittingly, among her notes were a few words she had paraphrased and entitled, “From Sir Walter Scott and Me – Nature has given me a kind of buoyancy that mingles even with

my deepest afflictions and most gloomy hours. I have a secret pride which impels me to mix with my distresses, strange fragments of mirth.” She was predeceased by her parents Col. And Mrs. Stanley F. Griswold, parents in law Col. And Mrs. Harry L. Reeder, her husband Col. Harry L. Reeder, Jr., her high school sweetheart Richard P. Scott whom she married when they were reunited after fifty two years, son Harry L. Reeder III, grandson Richard Dale Taylor, Jr., brother and sister in law, Col. Boyd F. and Betsy Reeder and their daughter, her niece, Betsy Reeder, as well as special friends from Leavenworth Lois McRill, Sally Kobbe, MaryLee Jenkins, and Barbara Quick. She is survived by her daughter Margaret F. Reeder of Lawrence, Kansas, daughter Susan R. Taylor and her husband Robert A. Wolfgang of Knox, Maine, son Stanley G. Reeder and his wife Elizabeth Kress Reeder of Boca de Tomatlan and Paracho, Mexico, daughter-inlaw Cathleen M. Reeder of Westcliffe, Colorado, five grandchildren, Emily Reeder Malsbury and her husband Craig Malsbury of Oskaloosa, Kansas, Angela Reeder Pettit and her husband Danny of Tacoma, Washington, Eliott Reeder and his fiancée Amanda Berger of Lawrence Kansas, Jason Taylor and his wife Saundra of Atlanta, Georgia, Katherine Taylor and her husband David Hooper of Norwich, Connecticut, nine great grandchildren including her namesake Diana Malsbury, and one great great grandchild as well as all of the members of her various bridge clubs. A memorial service will take place Thursday at 5:30 pm, August 9, 2012 at the Warren-McElwain Mortuary in Lawrence. An additional service will be held August 10th, at 9:00 am, at the old Fort Leavenworth Chapel. A private graveside service for the family will follow at the Fort Leavenworth National Cemetery.

CITY APPROVES 2013 BUDGET The Lawrence City Commission approved a $174 million budget for 2013 with a slight mill levy increase. Commissioners at their Tuesday evening meeting approved the budget as previously published, with an added stipulation that $10,000 be spent on scholarships for the Lawrence Children’s Choir. The funds would be spent from existing dollars, and would not increase the mill levy.

City CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A

The budget would add $769,000 in new revenue for the city, three new police officers, new police equipment and some other new initiatives. The 2013 budget proposes a mill levy increase of 0.92 of a mill. A mill is $1 in property taxes for every $1,000 in assessed valuation. A home with a market value of $200,000 would pay an extra $21.16 per year in property taxes under the proposed budget. Ernie Shaw, interim director of parks and recreation, told commissioners the facility would provide numerous opportunities for a number of people, from participants in youth leagues to people over 50. “We’ve never had an opportunity to program turf,” he said, adding that could open up options for flag football, kickball, ultimate Frisbee and lacrosse, in addition to the other options afforded to the department. The city has never had volleyball leagues before, he said, and that would be available in the new center. “We have endless opportunities in a facility like this, and I don’t think that the programs are going to be a problem,” Shaw said. Schumm said the new facility would also free up space and demand in the city’s existing recreation centers. “We’re going to continue to look out for those facilities” and make sure they’re maintained and supported, Schumm said. The commission heard from a handful of members of the public, most of whom expressed support for the project. “My challenge to the commission is to do it right,” said Ron Crawford, who lives in the area of the proposed project. “I think you’re on the right path.”

Evans, presented a new design that brought the total size of the fieldhouse to 181,000 square feet. The space would have a oneeighth mile walking track and gym space for eight full-size basketball courts or 16 volleyball courts. The newly added turf area could accommodate four 60-foot-by-80-foot soccer fields, or three such fields with room for spectators. Lawrence Memorial Hospital has expressed interest in partnering with the city to establish a use for a 7,000-square-foot wellness space in the facility. “We’re very much in the preliminary stages” with the partnership, said David Corliss, city manager. “We’re both very interested in doing something cooperatively.” City estimates placed the infrastructure costs for the new building at $6.45 million. Corliss said some of the infrastructure costs could be paid using funds from a transportation development district sales tax levied on businesses in the area. Britt Crum-Cano, the city’s economic development coordinator, presented preliminary estimates of revenue generated from such a sales tax at about $3.6 million over a 22-year period on a — Higher education reporter Andy Hyconservative end, and $8.6 million on a more aggres- land can be reached at 832-6388.

had 35 percent. Barnhart, who spent nothing in the campaign, tallied about 25 percent. Eye’s communications director Virginia Phillips said after the results were in, “Bob will continue to advocate for the public interest through his career.” Schlingensiepen will face U.S. Rep. Lynn Jenkins, R-Topeka, in the Nov. 6 general election. He said the focus of his campaign leading to the Nov. 6 general election will be: “Jobs. Jobs for the 2nd District and jobs for the people of this country.” Jenkins, who is seeking a third term, came out swinging against Schlingensiepen. Her campaign manager Bill Roe put out a statement that said, “Congresswoman Jenkins is looking forward to a spirited campaign in which Tobias Schlingensiepen’s support for Obamacare, increased taxes and deep cuts to the military are in contrast to Congresswoman Jenkins and the wishes of Kansas 2nd district voters.” Schlingensiepen said that statement “doesn’t address our campaign positions at all. People are going to see a clear choice as we go forward in this campaign.” During the primary battle, Schlingensiepen, a 48-year-old minister on leave from the First Congregational Church in Topeka, criticized obstructionism in Washington, and said his background as a minister would help him bring people together for the common good. Eye, 60, said his work as an environmental advocate prepared him for Congress. He was one of the lead attorneys for opponents of the South Lawrence Trafficway. Schlingensiepen has entered several high-profile political issues recently. He was an outspoken critic of Gov. Sam Brownback’s tax-cutting proposal, saying it had “a moral problem” by eliminating provisions, such as the Earned Income Tax Credit, aimed at helping the working poor. Brownback ended up signing a historic tax cut, but left the EITC alone. And Schlingensiepen delivered petitions seeking the removal of House Speaker Mike O’Neal, RHutchinson, after O’Neal forwarded an email that referred to President Barack Obama and a Bible verse that said, “Let his days be few and brief.” O’Neal apologized but did not step down. Last year, Schlingensiepen helped form a coalition to fight Brownback when the Republican governor proposed shutting down the Kansas Neurological Institute, which is a state hospital that serves those with profound disabilities. KNI remains open. In the newly aligned districts, the 2nd District saw some of the most drastic changes. The new lines put Lawrence and Douglas County wholly in the 2nd, and returned Montgomery County to the 2nd, reuniting it with traditional counties of southeast Kansas. . In the campaign finance reporting period running from April 1 through June 30, Schlingensiepen reported raising $37,100, and Eye raised $14,200. Barnhart reported no contributions. Meanwhile, Jenkins reported raising $350,000, with $210,000 coming from political action committees and $140,000 from individuals.

Woman faces false statement charge

Kansans sound off to health official

——

Prosecutors say Eudora resident received $61K in disability payments By George Diepenbrock

By Karrey Britt

gdiepenbrock@ljworld.com

Federal prosecutors have filed a felony charge of making a false statement against a Eudora woman, alleging she told the Social Security Administration in 2007 that her husband did not live with her even though he did. According to a complaint filed Monday against Sheery Lynn Regalado, prosecutors allege she received about $61,000 in disability benefits during 11 years that she was not eligible to receive because she concealed her living arrangement. Regalado began receiving disability payments in 1992, and in August 2000 she reported her husband, who was not named in the complaint, no longer lived at her Eudora home and that he did not pay rent or provide money for utilities. She also filled out a Social Security survey in 2007 reporting her husband no longer lived with her. Prosecutors said Social Security investigators need to know the number of residents living in a household and the income available to determine the monthly amount a recipient is eligible to receive. Investigators later received records that her hus-

2 forced entry burglaries reported By George Diepenbrock gdiepenbrock@ljworld.com

Two more aggravated burglaries were reported Tuesday morning in Lawrence. But they weren’t like others that have been reported for the past several weeks. This time, the burglar forced his way into people’s homes as they slept. In previous burglaries, the suspect had entered the homes of sleeping residents through unlocked doors. Kim Murphree, a Lawrence police spokeswoman, said Tuesday’s first burglary Please see FALSE, page 4A was reported at 4:30

a.m. in the 1800 block of Illinois Street when a male resident reported someone turned his light on as he slept. He said he saw a black man in his 20s with an average build. The suspect fled, and police did not find him. “Entry into the home was probably made through a rear door of the residence where there were signs of forced entry,” Murphree said. The second one occurred about 5:30 a.m. in the 900 block of Maine Street. An 84-year-old

woman was asleep when a door to her home was forced open. She turned on the lights and called 911. The suspect ran away before police arrived. Nothing was taken. Police last week arrested Kenneth Brooks Jr., 31, in connection with two northern Lawrence burglaries after he was accused of entering two homes through unlocked doors while residents were sleeping. Brooks is still in jail awaiting a trial, and until Tuesday morning, police said they had not field-

ed any new aggravated burglary reports since Brooks was arrested. Investigators are working to solve dozens of other similar burglaries. In most cases, the suspect entered homes through unlocked or unsecured doors, rather than forcing their way inside, which was the case with the two most recent ones. Murphree said she could not comment on whether Tuesday’s burglaries matched any past cases because police were still investigating the recent ones. — Reporter George Diepenbrock can be reached at 832-7144.

The nation’s leader for Centers of Medicare and Medicaid Services visited Lawrence on Tuesday to see how health care is delivered and to listen to concerns from nurses, pharmacists, doctors and nursing home workers, and she got an earful. As acting administrator, Marilyn Tavenner oversees the $820 billion federal agency, which ensures health coverage for 100 million Americans. The Centers of Medicare and Medicaid Services, or CMS, administers Medicare and it provides funds and guidance to all states for their Medicaid and Children’s Health Insurance programs. U.S. Sen. Jerry Moran, R-Kan., said almost every day he receives phone calls, emails and letters from Kansans who have complaints about CMS, so he invited Tavenner to visit his home state. “The goal is to demonstrate how we deliver health care in a state like ours that’s different than many states and very rural, and to give an administrator, who has lots of say about how things Please see HEALTH, page 4A

Gov., economist headlining forum on tax cuts By Scott Rothschild srothschild@ljworld.com

TOPEKA — Gov. Sam Brownback and his taxcutting consultant, nationally known economist Arthur Laffer, will headline a forum next week on how controversial Brownback tax cuts passed this year will benefit businesses, the Kansas Department of Commerce announced Laffer Tuesday. The Kansas Small Business Forum will be from 1 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. Tuesday in the Capitol Federal Conference Center, Regnier Center at Johnson County Community College in Overland Park. Laffer is the founder and chief executive officer of Laffer Associates in Nashville, Tenn., and was a member of President Ronald Reagan’s Economic Advisory Policy Board. He is considered the father of supply-side economics and was hired by Brownback for $75,000 to do consulting work on the governor’s tax plan. Brownback signed into law a plan that will cut individual income tax rates for 2013 and eliminate state in-

come taxes for the owners of 191,000 businesses. Coupled with the sales tax reduction already scheduled for July 2013, the tax cuts will provide $231 million in tax relief for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2013. That annual figure is projected to grow to $934 million after six years. Critics of the tax cuts say they will force budget cuts for schools, public safety and social services. The nonpartisan Legislative Research Department said the tax cuts will produce a budget shortfall by July 2014. The researchers’ projections show cumulative shortfalls over five years exceeding $2.5 billion. Brownback, Kansas Commerce Secretary Pat George and Revenue Secretary Nick Jordan will be at the forum. In addition to Laffer, other scheduled speakers include Thom Ruhe, vice president of entrepreneurship at the Kauffman Foundation, and Gary Allerheiligen, former president of the Kansas Society of CPAs. The cost of Laffer’s appearance is included in his $75,000 consulting fee, according to a Commerce Department spokesman. A panel will include state Rep. Marvin Kleeb, R-Overland Park; Peter Newman, a CPA and host of KMBZ Radio’s “Moneyline;” Doug Furnell, owner of Western Metal Co. in Louisburg; and Kevin Tubbesing, owner of The Land Source in Kansas City, Kan.

Man pleads no Corps reduces water contest to sex crime prediction for river A 52-year-old Lawrence man Tuesday morning pleaded no contest to one count of sexual exploitation of a child. Amy McGowan, a chief assistant Douglas County district attorney, said prosecutors had evidence Jerry Dale Kerr had exchanged text messages of a sexual nature with a 13-year-old girl last summer and received and possessed explicit photos of the girl. “She was a friend of the defendant’s son, and that’s how he came into contact with her,” McGowan said. Defense attorney J.C. Gilroy said Kerr would undergo a sex offender evaluation before his sentencing. Gilroy said he believed Kerr, who has no significant criminal history, would fall under a “border box,” meaning the defense could ask District Judge Peggy Kittel to sentence him to probation. Kerr faces a maximum 136 months in prison, but if he does fall under a “border box,” his prison sentence would be between 31 to 38 months if he’s not granted probation. Gilroy said prosecutors had not yet decided whether they would argue for probation or prison, but McGowan did say in court she opposed a bond reduction because she believed it best Kerr remain in jail until his sentencing. In exchange for the plea, prosecutors agreed to drop another exploitation charge and a more serious solicitation charge. Kittel scheduled Kerr’s sentencing for Sept. 28.

MARILYN TAVENNER, acting administrator of the Centers of Medicare and Medicaid Services, and U.S. Sen. Jerry Moran, R-Kan., visit Shirley Webb, 88, of Lawrence, as she receives a home health care visit Tuesday from Judith Bellome, executive director of Visiting Nurses.

happen within the delivery system and how it gets compensated, an appreciation for how we do things in Kansas,” he said. “The other part is to give Kansans an opportunity to express their opinions to somebody who affects their lives on a daily, ongoing basis.” It’s only the third time, he said, that the top CMS official had accepted an invitation during his 15 years of service in Congress. It was a one-day visit that included a stop at Providence Medical Center in Kansas City, Kan., where she met with hospital administrators from across the state, and then two stops in Lawrence. The first stop in Lawrence was at the home of retired school teacher Shirley Webb who was celebrating her 88th birthday. She has been receiving home health care from Visiting Nurses for a wound on her ankle. “It’s the only way to get well. It’s very, very important to be in your own home with your own things and all of the memories,” Webb told Tavenner. “It’s a small home, but I love it and I want to say here.” Tavenner replied: “We want you to stay here, too.” Judy Bellome, executive director of Visiting Nurses, said it’s also cheaper to provide care in a home than in a hospital. She said the average cost for a hospital stay is $6,200 per day. For two months, Visiting Nurses provided occupational therapy, physical therapy and nursing care for Webb and that cost $3,500. The care not only helped Webb recover from her injury but also helped keep her out of the hospital. Additionally, Bellome discouraged Tavenner from implementing co-payments for home health care. “If you or Congress decide that you need to do copays, you are going to have people turning it down. They are going to think that they can do without it,” she said, wiping away a tear. “That’s going to result in more emergency room visits and hospitalizations.”

She said her mom was an Army nurse during World War II and knew the importance of health care, but she also was a penny pincher near the end of life. She turned down home health care through an insurance company because of a required co-payment. The wound on her mother’s foot became worse, and doctors ended up amputating. “She was middle income and she could have afforded it, but she thought she was a nurse and she could handle it.” Moran said his 96-yearold dad likely would decline home care as well, if he had to pay out of pocket for it. “It’s the way they were raised. They don’t spend money,” he said. The next stop for Moran and Tavenner was Kansas University’s School of Pharmacy, where they met with KU Chancellor Bernadette Gray-Little and Ken Audus, dean of the school. They received a tour and then briefly entered a summit meeting of the Kansas Pharmacy Association that was taking place at the school, and Tavenner answered a handful of questions. One pharmacist said he had been audited several times, and once it was over 100 blood glucose testing strips over a six-month period, a pretty insignificant cost when compared with other expenditures.

The pharmacist questioned the cost to taxpayers for these audits. Tavenner said, “We have already started to take a look at all of our audit processes. There is no doubt that what was started with the best of intentions is not capturing what it should and missing some things.” Tavenner said while some audits are not warranted such as the pharmacist’s example, there are cases of abuse and overuse. She said her daughter is a Type 1 diabetic who uses an insulin pump, and she receives numerous calls from companies who have asked to reorder her supplies. “I would have to buy a house to hold them,” she said. “So there is abuse going on. It may not be fraud, but it is over utilization of expensive products.” In the afternoon, Tavenner and Moran met with doctors and nursing home and assisted living facility employees from across the state in the School of Pharmacy. Tavenner said the Kansas visit had been insightful. “I don’t get out a lot, so it gave me a chance to see the state and hear about state issues which will help me make better decisions when I go back to D.C.,” she said. — Health reporter Karrey Britt can be reached at 832-7190.

OMAHA, NEB. (AP) — The Army Corps of Engineers is again reducing its prediction for how much water will flow down the Missouri River this year because of the drought. The corps now predicts 21 million acre-feet of runoff this year in the 2,341-mile-long river that flows from Montana through North Dakota, South Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas, Iowa and Missouri. That forecast is about 85 percent of normal, and well below last year’s record amount of 61.2 million acrefeet of runoff. Flooding along the river last year caused massive damage, but this year the amount of snowmelt and rain flowing into the river is below normal. Some of the extra water stored in reservoirs along the river has been used to provide enough water for navigation, power and other uses of the river.

Investigators also discovered the couple’s joint bank account where his paychecks were sent. She also deposited her benefit checks into the account. The complaint alleges that in a July 2011 interview, Sheery Regalado admitted to sharing a bank account with her husband, handling the couple’s finances and acknowledging she “failed to accurately notify SSA of her

husband’s additional income that she had access to, as well as the COURTS fact that her husband resided with her in Eudora.” If convicted, Regalado faces a maximum of five years in prison and a $250,000 fine. — Reporter George Diepenbrock can be reached at 832-7144.

HUTCHINSON (AP) — Three people are jailed after being arrested in 15 burglaries in Hutchinson. The crimes began April 10 with a burglary at a convenience store. Targets also included seven churches and Hutchinson High School. The suspects were arrested Monday after Hutchinson police received an anonymous tip. Prosecutors have charged 24-year-old Justin Lee Branscom and 19-yearold Tyler Schmucker of Hutchinson with multiple counts of burglary, criminal damage, criminal trespass and theft. A 16-year-old faces similar charges.

SOUND OFF

When is the city going to stop watering its parks and Eagle Bend Golf Course?

Megan Gilliland, the city’s communications manager, provided this answer: The city does not intend to completely stop watering in its parks and at Eagle Bend Golf Course. Currently, the city has modified watering schedules to refrain from using large quantities of water during peak times and modified programs to perform minimal watering to keep landscapes, trees, parks and golf courses from dying or having permanent damage that would require replacement.

Conservative GOP candidates trump moderates ——————

Influence of governor, Kochs, outside organizations felt in primary races throughout state By Scott Rothschild srothschild@ljworld.com

TOPEKA — Gov. Sam Brownback, the billionaire Koch brothers, Kansas Chamber of Commerce and Kansans for Life combined to help defeat a slew of moderate Republican Senate candidates Tuesday. Conservative Republicans appeared ready to take over control of the Kansas Senate. Fueled by huge donations from Wichita-based Koch Industries, and Wichita oilman David Murfin, the Kansas Chamber PAC reported spending nearly $650,000 on

conservative candidates in the last three and a half weeks of the campaign. And that amount didn’t include mailers sent out by Koch-founded Americans for Prosperity, which doesn’t have to report expenditures on its political activity because it is a taxexempt “social welfare” organization. Moderates received support from teachers, bipartisan unions and gaming interests. Incumbent moderates Tim Owens, of Overland Park, Roger Reitz, of Manhattan, Bob Marshall, of Fort Scott, Dwayne Umbarger, of Thayer, Pete Brungardt, of Salina, Dick Kelsey, of Goddard, Jean

Schodorf, of Wichita, and Ruth Teichman, of Stafford, were defeated Tuesday. Senate President Steve Morris, of Hugoton, was trailing in late returns. Two more conservatives won seats held by moderates who are retiring. The wins by conservatives are likely to overturn a bipartisan coalition of moderate Republicans and Democrats in the Senate that has been able to thwart some of Brownback’s agenda. The bipartisan coalition in the Senate had prevented conservatives from lessening labor unions’ political influence, remaking appellate courts and establishing a 401(k)-style

Drug conviction appeal claims ‘outrageous government conduct’ By George Diepenbrock gdiepenbrock@ljworld.com

Federal prosecutors argue that undercover investigators were correct to broaden their investigation to include methamphetamine manufacturing as part of a 2010 case that resulted in lengthy federal prison sentences for two Lawrence men. In a recent appeal to the 10th Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals, attorneys for Randy J. Dyke and Donald Milton Steele accused investigators of exhibiting “outrageous government conduct,” alleging they planted the idea of methamphetamine manufacturing and provided supplies to the two men in an effort to obtain stiffer prison sentences. The case is related to an in-

vestigation that included a 2010 raid on Steele’s house east of Lawrence, 1706 N. 1500 Road. In a response to Dyke’s appeal, prose c u t o r s argue that undercover COURTS officers investigating Steele, Dyke and other co-defendants were correct to broaden their investigation because, they allege, Steele had suggested manufacturing methamphetamine “in light of the numerous criminal ventures occurring,” including counterfeiting money and purchasing marijuana. “The undercover operation that followed was objectively reasonable and tailored to thwart the

defendants’ wide-ranging criminal activities,” Assistant U.S. Attorney Tristram Hunt wrote in the government’s response to Dyke’s appeal. “This issue should be denied.” Hunt also alleged Steele, and not investigators, initially involved Dyke in the methamphetamine manufacturing conspiracy. Dyke received a nearly 20-year prison sentence. Dyke’s attorney has asked the appellate court to hear an argument on the issue and acquit him of the most serious charges in the case.

pension plan for new public employees. Having conservatives in charge of the Senate could mean more restrictions on abortion, anti-labor legislation and a “religious

preservation” bill that critics said would have allowed discrimination against gays and lesbians. — Statehouse reporter Scott Rothschild can be reached at 785-423-0668.

Brown will face Holland in general election By Shawn Linenberger slinenberger@theworldco.info

It was at the 11th hour that Rep. Anthony Brown, of Eudora, and J.C. Tellefson, of Leavenw o r t h , were campaigning in the Republican primary race for Brown the Kansas Senate 3rd District seat. Both were walking in the Leavenworth County Fair Parade through downtown Tonganoxie about the time polls were closing Tuesday. Brown, though, will be the only one marching on to the general election.

The state representative took 68 percent of the vote (3,111 to 1,434) with all 43 precincts reporting. The results are unofficial until the state canvasses the votes. Brown said Tellefson was a “complete gentleman” and ran a clean campaign. He said he plans to approach Tellefson about uniting campaigns later this week. Tuesday evening, Brown was meeting with supporters about campaign sign locations and other strategies. As he moves on to face another Leavenworth County Fair participant, incumbent Tom Holland, D-Baldwin City, Brown said job growth was his top priority. “We have to get back

to work,” Brown said. “It doesn’t matter whether it’s Wyandotte or Leavenworth or Douglas counties or somewhere out west — people want jobs and want to get back to work, and that’s what we have to focus on.” Tellefson said he was disappointed that he, the more moderate choice on the ballot, did not win the election. He’s concerned about what a conservative-controlled House and Senate, as well as a conservative governor, could mean for the state. He pointed to the Affordable Care Act becoming a reality on the national level with a Democrat-controlled House and Senate and Democratic president.

“Now we’ll see how that is in Kansas,” Tellefson said. As for working with Brown, Tellefson said he would be open to meeting with him but said he would like to focus on his family after a hectic two months of campaigning. “I think that Anthony has demonstrated he has a huge network of supporters willing to go out and work for him,” Tellefson said. Brown reported raising $20,875 from Jan. 1 through this past Thursday, while J.C. Tellefson reported raising $2,427 in that span. — Shawn Linenberger, news editor at The (Tonganoxie) Mirror, can be reached at 913-845-2222.

O’Brien wins 42nd House District primary By Scott Rothschild srothschild@ljworld.com

State Rep. Connie O’Brien, of Tonganoxie, won the Republican Party primary Tuesday over Sandra Bohne, of Leavenworth, in the 42nd House District. O’Brien, who is seeking her third term in office, will face Leavenworth Democrat Harold Fevurly Jr. in the Nov. 6 general election. With all but one precinct reporting late Tuesday, O’Brien led

Bohne 62 percent to 38 percent. T h e 42nd District covers the western half of Leavenw o r t h County, O’Brien includin g Tonganoxie, Easton and a portion of Leavenworth, as well as part of Douglas County, including Eudora. Redistricting had set the stage for the primary

face-off between Bohne and O’Brien. In 2010, Bohne lost the race for the 40th District House seat to Democratic incumbent Melanie Meier by about 50 votes. Redistricting placed Bohne in the 42nd District. O’Brien is considered one of the most conservative members of the House and supported Gov. Sam Brownback’s tax cuts. During the campaign, Bohne said she favored lower taxes but had concerns about the tax cut,

Moore to face off against Hensley By Scott Rothschild srothschild@ljworld.com

Casey Moore, a political newcomer, will take on the longest-serving member of the Kansas Legislature, state Sen. Anthony Hensley, D-Topeka, in the November general election. Moore, 35, a commodity trader who has lived in Topeka since 2006, defeated Matthew Windheuser, 23, of Lawrence. Moore won 81 percent to 19 percent. In Douglas County precincts,

Moore led Windheuser 55 percent to 45 percent of the vote. Windheuser had originally filed to run against Sen. Marci Francisco, DLawrence, but the redistrictMoore ing plan ordered by a three-judge panel put more of Douglas County in Senate District 19 and threw Windheus-

er’s residence into that district. The newly aligned district includes western Douglas County, east Topeka and all of Osage County. During the campaign, Moore called for less government spending and tax cuts. He repeated his campaign slogan often, playing off his name: “More jobs, less taxes.” Windheuser had said he wanted a comprehensive review of state spending on schools.

Corbet wins GOP nomination By Scott Rothschild srothschild@ljworld.com

TOPEKA — Ken Corbet, the owner of a sportsman’s retreat, won the Republican Party primary in the 54th House District on Tuesday. Corbet C o r bet, owner of Ravenwood Lodge near Dover, defeated Debra “Debbi” Childers and Dana Webber for the right to face Democrat Ann Mah, the incumbent in the 53rd District who found herself a

resident of the 54th District when new district maps were redrawn in June. Corbet garnered 50 percent of the vote to Childers’ 30 percent and Webber’s 20 percent in unofficial results. The largely rural 54th District covers the southern third of Shawnee County, the northern half of Osage County and southwest Douglas County. Among the communities in the district are Auburn, Carbondale, Overbrook and Scranton. All three Republican candidates self-identified as conservatives, believe life begins at conception and support the tax-cut

package the Kansas Legislature passed this session and Gov. Sam Brownback signed into law. The tax cuts reduce the top individual state income-tax rate to 4.9 percent from 6.45 percent and also will eliminate income taxes on nonwage income on many small businesses. Corbet said he would also like to see a freeze on property taxes. Childers, treasurer of Auburn Township, had said she wanted to advance Brownback’s agenda. Webber said she was running to give Osage County a voice in the Legislature.

According to Douglas County officials, the new voter ID law passed its first big test: primary elections. On Tuesday, 9,020, or 13 percent, of Douglas County’s residents voted, which is about on par with the 2010 primary election. It might be lower than Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach’s prediction of 18 percent, but it was not the drop-off many had worried about. Some believed that the new law, requiring voters to present photo IDs, might have suppressed turnout. Douglas County election official Austin Turney said this was not the case. “The ID part went very smoothly,” he said. Election workers reported plenty of grumbling about the new law but had few instances of people lacking an ID. Both Douglas County Clerk Shew and Turney agreed that those participating in this

DILBERT

election were more involved and affiliated voters — ones who had likely read about the law and came prepared. But that might not be the case come November. “General election will be a whole different ballgame, I think,” Turney said. Turney said many who vote in the general election are mainly concerned with voting in the presidential race and are less likely to be prepared. Shew did say the election had a few small hitches. He said that many residents at the Pioneer Ridge Nursing Home lacked photo IDs but that Douglas County would be able to provide the residents with countyissued IDs to allow them to vote. Redistricting and the change of polling locations also caused confusion. But Shew said he had an extra election worker monitoring provisional ballots — those filled out without a photo ID or in the incorrect polling location — and the number of those did not appear to be abnormally high.

Online education

By Kevin Horrigan St. Louis Post-Dispatch

Universities need to be focused on meeting the coming demand for more online courses and degree programs.

ver the last several years, the Internet has become a dominant force in news, commerce and social interaction. Americans love online convenience. They want to use their phones or computers to get their news, pay their bills, buy their clothes and keep in touch with friends. Why not use online communication to earn a university degree? The tradition of bringing students to campus and meeting with them face to face is strong at a large school like Kansas University, but it’s only smart for KU officials to look at ways to blend — or, in some cases, even replace — the traditional classroom setting with online technology. The demand already is there. Many smaller colleges, including many private institutions, are going after people who want or need to complete a degree outside a traditional campus setting. In Kansas, Fort Hays State University has been a pioneer in online courses, and its president offered some excellent insights in a story in Tuesday’s Journal-World. A number of large universities are pursuing massive online courses that are offered free to everyone, but without credit. FHSU President Ed Hammond says that’s not what most students are looking for. They want to establish credentials and further their careers; for that they need to take courses for credit and have those courses lead to a degree. Although online students have some different needs, he said, they also have many of the same needs as traditional students: access to library materials, tutoring and other support services, along with financial aid. Hammond also notes that online teaching requires skills that not all classroom instructors have, and just because students aren’t in a classroom doesn’t mean they don’t need feedback and communication. The first step for many KU instructors is to use the Internet as a teaching tool, and that already is happening. The next step, however, is to offer not just a course here and there, but full degree programs that can be completed entirely or almost entirely online. There is much to be said for the traditional campus learning environment, but that model doesn’t work for everyone. In the current economy, many students must work while completing a degree, and that job may not be conveniently located near an appropriate college or university. Although officials say online courses aren’t necessarily less expensive than on-campus courses, it seems that, over time, a decline in a university’s physical plant needs would allow it to reduce tuition costs. Maintaining their academic integrity while making a shift to more online courses and degrees will pose a challenge, but KU and other universities can’t afford to ignore this trend.

“Perhaps not surprisingly in a country where health care reform is so controversial, it was the high-profile presence of the NHS that stunned many American writers. ... Certainly the U.S. equivalent, which would be dancing health insurance corporate executives, was hard to imagine.” — Paul Harris, in The Guardian, July 28 Hah, hah, hah. Very funny. It’s not hard at all to imagine what the “U.S. equivalent” to your Olympic Opening Ceremony’s salute to Britain’s National Health Service would look like. I’m already working on it. Sure, “dancing health insurance corporate executives” will be part of it. If you’d made that much money last year, you’d want to dance, too. “Executives in the top spots at the country’s seven largest publicly traded health plans were paid a collective $87 million for their services in 2011,” American Medical News reported in May. Picture this: It’s night in Florida. We’re in a darkened Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, jammed with 66,000 delegates to the Republican National Convention and their guests. A spotlight illuminates the stage. The seven top health care CEOs, carrying canes and dressed in white top hats and tails, prance on stage as the Mormon Tabernacle Choir sings “Puttin’ on the Ritz.” Pretty nice, huh? And that’s just the start. The spotlight widens to

“

The spotlight widens to show 94 primary care doctors, in multi-colored scrub suits, forming a ring around David Cordani, the CEO of Cigna Health Care, bowing and scraping to honor the fact that at $19.1 million, Cordani made more in 2011 than all 94 of them combined.”

show 94 primary care doctors, in multi-colored scrub suits, forming a ring around David Cordani, the CEO of Cigna Health Care, bowing and scraping to honor the fact that at $19.1 million, Cordani made more in 2011 than all 94 of them combined. The orchestra breaks into Gershwin’s “It Ain’t Necessarily So” as the stadium floor is lighted, revealing 400 actual health insurance bureaucrats wearing telephone headsets and sitting at small desks. They shake their heads back and forth in our “Salute to Rescission.” The crowd erupts, because fans know that if Republicans repeal the Affordable Care Act, God will be in his heaven, all will be right with the world and insurance companies once again will be allowed to retroactively cancel coverage when someone needs it. But now! What’s that? Lights around the stadium’s upper tier are forming a large doughnut, signifying the “Medicare

doughnut hole” that will return once “Obamacare” is eliminated, thus ensuring that drugs for anything between basic coverage and catastrophe are not covered. The orchestra swings into “Live and Let Die.” Cannons in the end zones fire clouds of pills into the sky. As they fall to the floor, out of the stadium tunnels limp thousands of senior citizens who are allowed to scrounge for the pills. But only for three minutes, because it’s time for our.... Tribute to the ER! Giant video boards flash the image of former President George W. Bush uttering these immortal words in 2007: “I mean, people have access to health care in America. After all, you just go to an emergency room.” The theme from the TV show “ER” comes up as sirens wail, ambulances and EMS trucks tear around the stadium floor, disgorging patients into the busy “emergency department” on center stage, already jammed with insured adults and children who have no primary care doctors. Our ER “treats” them and send them on their way with big weights (symbolizing hospital bills) strapped to their backs, which they then pass to the people in the crowd — who are delighted to get them! On guy-wires stretched across the top of the stadium a huge number “17.6” sparkles in gold and silver lights. It represents the percentage of the gross domestic product devoted to health care — 8 percent higher than the Brits. The music swells into Creed’s “Can

You Take Me Higher?” The crowd sings along, waving 66,000 foam “We’re Number 1” fingers, signaling America’s status as the nation with the most expensive health care in the world — 2.4 times more expensive than the silly Brits. KA-BOOM! go the fireworks. We crane our heads skyward to see a giant figure “37,” symbolizing the World Health Organization’s ranking of the American health care system. The big finale: With the crowd’s attention diverted skyward, volunteers — all of them from health insurance companies — have erected cardboard cutouts of men, women, children and babies around the floor of the stadium. There are so many of them — 45,000 — that they loop around the field in a squiggly line almost a mile long. They represent the 45,000 Americans whose lack of health insurance contributes to their premature death each year, according to a 2009 study by the Harvard Medical School. Now riding into the stadium atop Rafalca, his wife’s Olympic dressage horse, is Mitt Romney, who will be nominated for president on the following night. He guides the mare’s nose to the first cardboard figure. A simple nudge and, like dominoes, they topple over in spectacular sequence. The crowd goes wild. — Kevin Horrigan is a columnist for the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. His email address is khorrigan@postdispatch.com.

OLD HOME TOWN

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for Aug. 8, 1912: YEARS “As the reports AGO come in from difIN 1912 ferent parts of this county, it is evident that this is one of the best wheat years that the farmers have known for some time. It is a common thing for the number of bushels per acre to average far above the estimate put upon it and not only is the yield good, but the quality of the wheat is fine.”

Resolutions for a new school year By Gene A. Budig and Alan Heaps

According to the academic calendar, it’s the new year. August and September are the months when K-12 and higher education institutions gear up for the start of school. Here in the United States — as well as in many other countries — the beginning of the new year is accompanied by a number of traditions. One of the most popular is the making of resolutions, promises to ourselves and others that we will behave well (or better) in the months ahead. The practice of making new year resolutions is not a new one. Four thousand years ago, the Babylonians started each year by paying their debts and returning borrowed objects. Two thousand years ago, the Romans asked forgiveness from their enemies. Five hundred years ago, medieval knights took a vow to reaffirm their commitment to chivalry. In recent times, the new year’s tradition has been altered to favor a more tailored approach to resolutions, each of us focusing on behavior that fits our individual situation. According to a U.S. government website, popular resolutions here in America include to drink less alcohol, eat healthier food, enroll in more education, find a better job, get fit, lose weight, manage debt, reduce stress, quit smoking, do more recycling, save money, take a trip and/or volunteer to help others. It is estimated that almost half of adult Americans make New Year’s resolutions. It is also estimated that one quarter drop their resolutions within one week. One-third drop their resolutions within one month. Slightly more

than half (54 percent) drop their resolutions within six months. In the spirit of new beginnings, we talked with a few colleagues and developed a list of educator resolutions for the upcoming academic year. Budig

Be innovative. Our world is rapidly changing. In many ways, possibilities are limited only by our imaginations. But many of our schools look and work the way they did a hundred years ago. We need to implement bold ideas for improving our classrooms. Heaps

Be students ourselves. All of us can find something to learn, whether it’s about new teaching methods, classroom technology or even a new personal hobby. Let’s be continuous learners so we can see the teaching process through the eyes of students.

Broaden the enterprise. We live in a world where the many parts of our lives are interconnected. This is also true of students, all of whom have intricate and powerful ties to their communities, families and personal histories. Let’s reach out to student families and community members.

Lead the discussion. No one knows education better than educators. While our judgment is far from infallible, we need to better assert our opinions and knowledge. Let’s lead the debate by raising the issues we believe important.

Admit our weaknesses. There are problems in education and some of them are of our own making. Let’s admit this and work to fix them.

Communicate more. Teachers are good at talking to teachers. Counselors are good at talking to counselors. Principals are good at talking to principals. But we’re not as good at communicating across the levels and with others. Let’s communicate with the broad spectrum of educators and others.

Be role models. Students look not only to what we say but also to what we do. They emulate our behavior in things both big and small. Let’s behave in ways that we would want our students to follow.

Set high expectations. Our students are pretty remarkable. They can achieve almost anything with the right supports. Let’s give all students the credit and respect they deserve.

It’s about the students. Most importantly, this year, let’s remember that education is not about the teachers, the administrators or the lawmakers. It’s about the students. If we keep our focus on the students and their welfare, we will have done much to improve the conversation about our schools. These resolutions are tough ones. But educators are committed to their profession and their students. We hope that educators will work hard to be in that 46 percent who keep their resolve for more than six months. — Gene Budig, who taught at Princeton University, is a former chancellor/president of three major state universities, including Kansas University, and past president of Major League Baseball’s American League. Alan Heaps is a vice president of the College Board in New York City.

KANSAS 79, SWISS NATIONAL TEAM 76

Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

Big-play Pierson can lead KU rush The average football fan hears the name Charlie Weis and immediately thinks about quarterbacks and pass-happy gameplans. In reality, Weis banks more on the run than the typical Big 12 offense, which counts on keeping the defense in retreat with quick snaps and quicker plays. Weis’ offense keeps the defense feeling as if it’s behind by frequently changing personnel groups and uses the run to set up the playaction pass. Even with the loss of promising sophomore Darrian Miller — he was booted from the team for not meeting high discipline standards — Weis appears to have enough depth at the position to make the running game go, especially once James Sims returns from a seasonopening, three-game suspension. And the name of KU’s leading rusher will be? “That is an interesting question,” running backs coach Reggie Mitchell said Tuesday at Camp Charlie, Day 6. “I don’t know who is going to be the leading rusher because you don’t know what personnel groupings he’s going to use from game to game. I think he’s going to spread it around.” Guessing the back who will lead in yards per carry can be forecasted with greater accuracy. “That’d probably be Tony, just because he has a better chance for big plays,” Mitchell said of sophomore Tony Pierson, offensive MVP of the spring game. Weis reiterated Pierson, who stands 5-feet-10-1/2 inches and has been dunking a basketball since seventh grade, will not be an every-down back because of his slight frame, which carries, at most, 170 pounds. Like the illegal Pinewood Derby cars weighted in the front with lead fishing sinkers hidden by fake wood and paint — or so I’m told that’s how to beat the system — Pierson’s built for speed. A less-structured Stephen Strasburg approach makes sense for Pierson. The native of East St. Louis studies films of NFL running backs Chris Johnson (5-11, 191) of the Tennessee Titans and Jamaal Charles (5-11, 199) of the Chiefs. When Pierson plays Madden, he’s either giving the carries to Johnson or Charles. As with most football fans his age, for Pierson the NFL is where fantasy meets reality. Weis was a big deal in the NFL, and then at Notre Dame until things headed south. Pierson’s words about playing for such a big name portend well for KU’s recruiting. “Seems like a dream coming true,” Pierson said. “I always watched Notre Dame. Just looking at coach Weis, knowing that he’s our head coach and offensive coordinator, it’s like a dream coming true, and I’m playing under a Super Bowl-champion coach.” A stab at odds for this season’s leading rusher: Pierson 3/2; James Sims 3/1; Brandon Bourbon 10/1; Taylor Cox 30/1; Marquis Jackson 50/1.

KU survives close call in Euro opener By Jesse Newell jnewell@ljworld.com

FRIBOURG, SWITZERLAND — Early in the fourth quarter, Jeff Withey playfully razzed teammate Kevin Young about his passing skills. He probably won’t do it again after Young’s performance in the final minute Tuesday. With 25 seconds left and Kansas leading by two, Young rebounded Naadir Tharpe’s miss and dished to Withey in one motion, providing a clutch play in the Jayhawks’ 79-76 exhibition victory over the Swiss national team at Fribourg Arena. “Jeff, when he’s down there, you’ve got to get him the ball,” Young said. “He’s like a big billboard down there. “I saw Naadir and I saw him, and I told Naadir in the locker room, ‘I would have passed it to you, but Jeff’s a little bit bigger, so I had to pass it to Jeff.’”

ONLINE For more from the Jayhawks’ first game in Switzerland — photos, video and player-byplayer observations — and for a live blog of today’s 10 a.m. (U.S. Central time) rematch, go to KUSports.com Earlier in the fourth quarter, following a well-placed lob pass to Zach Peters, Withey returned to the bench and jokingly told Young that it was a pass that he couldn’t make. “He one-upped me on that one,” Withey said. “Definitely a great pass, and that saved the game for us.” After Tharpe’s baseline jumper missed, Young leapt high under the basket for the offensive rebound before firing it to Withey in front of the rim. “Right when I caught the ball, I knew he was open,

because his man slid over to take Naadir,” Young said. “My man tried to box me out or come to me when I got the ball, so he was wide open.” The basket pushed KU’s lead to 77-73, and the Jayhawks held on through a crazy final few moments. Following a Swiss three that cut the lead to 79-76 with 1.6 seconds left, Tharpe caught the inbounds pass, holding it with outstretched hands to let the time run out. The clock didn’t start, though (in Switzerland, of all places), and after a defender bumped Tharpe with his lower body, the KU sophomore guard lost his balance and fell out of bounds. Officials gave the ball back to Switzerland, but Dusan Mladjan’s three-pointer from the corner bounced off the rim to end the game. KU won despite some sloppy play. Please see KANSAS, page 3B

Those who think Charlie Weis is entering into new territory by attempting to lead the rebuilding project at Kansas University have not paid enough attention to Weis’ past. Three times prior to coming to Kansas, Weis was part of a coaching staff that took over a downtrodden program and, almost immediately, turned it into a winner. The first time came in 1993, when Weis joined Bill Parcells in New England on the heels of a 2-14 season. That first year, despite Weis a 1-11 start, the Patriots finished 5-11 and installed the groundwork for the Super Bowl seasons to come. A year later, the Patriots were 10-6 and playing in the playoffs. Same thing took place in 1997 with the New York Jets. After a 1-15 season in 1996 without them, Weis and Parcells led the Jets to a 9-7 record in 1997 and a berth in the AFC championship game in 1998. “In the second year of both those teams, we went to the playoffs,” Weis said. “Now, I was not the head coach, but I was there and I was part of those turnarounds. We went into really bad teams and we got ’em competitive the first year and got ’em really good the second year.” Weis’ most recent turnaround came in 2010 with the Kansas City Chiefs, who were 4-12 the year before he arrived and 10-6 and AFC West champs after. Although Weis is sitting in a different seat in the meeting room now, he said he learned things at each stop that could help the Jayhawks get back on the winning track. “That would be nice if history kind of repeated itself,” Weis said. “I would like to be part of the reason that people that root for the Jayhawks were happy. ... No one wants to wait five years to start winning. But you gotta get competitive first. I think that’s a good place to start.” Toughness was a trademark of all three teams Weis helped turn around. “We played really, really hard,” he said. “(With New England, in 1994) we won one game out of our first 12 and it was against the Please see FOOTBALL, page 5B

Redeemed Raisman floors judges, wins gold, bronze LONDON (AP) — Aly Raisman’s reaction was right on. She put together a crisp floor routine Tuesday, then mouthed, “Wow” after she saluted the judges. Wow, indeed. Raisman became the first U.S. woman to win Olympic gold on floor, and she picked up a bronze on balance beam on the final day of the gymnastics competition at the London Olympics. “It definitely went better than I thought it would,” Raisman said. Raisman just missed a medal in the all-around, finishing with the same score as Russia’s Aliya Mustafina but dropping to fourth on a tiebreak.

That gave her and Ponor identical scores of 15.066, but Raisman got the bronze because her execution score was higher. “A gold medal is a gold medal, but I definitely felt like (beam) was redemption from the other night in the all-around,” Raisman said. “I was in the same exact position, but it went in my favor this time.” China collected two more golds when Feng Zhe won the parallel bars and Deng Linlin the beam competition.

Walsh Jennings and MayTreanor won gold medals in Athens in 2004 and Beijing in 2008 without losing a match, and they ran their unbeaten streak to 20 with their victory over China in the semifinals. Ross and Kessy advanced with a three-set win against top-ranked Brazilians Juliana and Larissa. “We want to seal the deal that we’re the best team that’s ever happened,” Walsh Jennings said. “Misty has changed my life. I just love her. I want to win tomorrow for us.” Usain Bolt is eyeing another gold after he cruised through 200-meter qualifying, jogging down the stretch on his way to a stress-free first-round heat of 20.39 seconds.

take it from me: When you’re right there, watching these expensive and highly trained animals perform in person, it really isn’t that riveting. At least it didn’t rivet me. I have a suggestion that I think would vastly increase the excitement level of the equestrian jumping competition, a suggestion I can summarize in one word: Defense. Picture this: A horse is racing toward an obstacle. It launches itself into the air. Everything is looking good for this horse, but suddenly... UH-oh! There’s another airborne horse, coming over the obstacle from the opposite direction, sending the unspoken but clear message: “Out of the way! This is MY obstacle!” Of course, for safety, the horses would be required to wear helmets, which for the record — and I think this is outrageous — they do not do now. Also I think the riders should wear protective suits made of a sturdy material such as metal. Maybe they could also carry lances. Then you’d have yourself a truly modern Olympic sport.

The World’s Fastest Man repeated in the 100 on Sunday night when his 9.63-second run set an Olympic record. He is trying to become the only man with two Olympic titles in the 200. Algeria’s Taoufik Makhloufi (men’s 1,500 meters), Australia’s Sally Pearson (100-meter hurdles), Germany’s Robert Harting (men’s discus) and Russia’s Ivan Ukhov (men’s high jump) won gold medals on the fifth day of the track and field competition. Pearson got the best of a strong field by clocking an Olympic record 12.35 seconds to edge defending champion Dawn Harper of the U.S. While Bolt moved on with ease, Liu Xiang failed to make it out of the preliminary heats of the 110-meter hurdles for the second straight Olympics. The 2004 Olympic champion from China stumbled into the first barrier, crumpled to the ground and stayed down for a few moments, clutching his lower right leg. The last American boxer in the men’s tournament was eliminated, giving the U.S. team its first Olympic medal shutout. Welterweight Errol Spence dropped a 16-11 decision to Russia’s Andrey Zamkovoy in the quarterfinals. Track cycling wrapped up at the London Velodrome, and Chris Hoy gave the boisterous crowd one last memory. Hoy broke the British record with his sixth Olympic gold medal, defending his keirin title to finish off a dominating performance by the home nation. Hoy’s gold gave Britain seven out of 10 awarded at the London Velodrome, matching its haul from the Beijing Games. Other highlights on Tuesday:

Basketball Diana Taurasi scored 15 points and the U.S. women’s team forced 26 turnovers in a 91-48 victory over Canada in the quarterfinals. The four-time defending gold medalists have won 39 straight games in Olympic play and will play Australia in the next round. Volleyball The U.S. women’s team played without captain Lindsey Berg, but still managed a 25-14, 25-21, 25-22 quarterfinal victory over the Dominican Republic. Destinee Hooker scored 19 points for the United States, which has never won a gold in volleyball. Water Polo The U.S. women’s team topped Australia 11-9 in overtime, shaking off a potentially costly blunder by coach Adam Krikorian, who called timeout without his team having possession of the ball, leading to the game-tying penalty goal. The U.S. will meet unbeaten Spain for the gold medal in Thursday’s final.

ARIZONA CARDINALS TACKLE NATE POTTER, LEFT, TRIES TO CONTAIN Kansas City Chiefs linebacker Tamba Hali during a joint training camp practice, Tuesday in St. Joseph, Mo.

Chiefs split training camp practice with Cardinals ST. JOSEPH, MO. — The practice looked like a normal NFL workout. There were just twice as many players on the fields at Missouri Western State University. The Kansas City Chiefs and Arizona Cardinals split a pair of practice fields Tuesday, placing nearly 200 players out there at one time. The joint practice came during Arizona’s three-day stint in St. Joseph between a preseason-opening loss Sunday to the Saints and Friday’s game at Arrowhead against Kansas City. “We got to see a lot of different players in a lot of situations,” Cardinals coach Ken Whisenhunt said. “We had both fields going. I mean, 180 guys? That’s a lot of guys doing a lot of things.” The two teams will share facilities for the next two days, but plan to work separately. Neither team had held a training camp scrimmage or joint practice the past three years. Kansas City last scrimmaged with the Vikings in 2008 when the Chiefs still held their camp in River Falls, Wis. The Cardinals worked in Nashville, Tenn., with the Titans during that same preseason. The teams worked individually to start on separate fields during walkthroughs and stretching. From there, the Chiefs offense matched up with the Cardinals defense on one field and vice versa on the other. The teams went through individual drills and then 7-on-9, 7-on-7 and 11-on-11 scenarios, concluding with Chiefs quarterback Matt Cassel and Arizona counterpart John Skelton leading the respective No. 1 offenses to field goals in a 2-minute-drill situation. The workout in front of about 3,000 fans went off without a visible hitch and no sign of the scuffles that led many teams to move away from training camp scrimmages. Conversations to bring the two teams together started more than a month ago. Rather than fly back to Phoenix and drive to their training camp site in Flagstaff, Ariz., the Cardinals worked out a deal to stop in the Midwest following the Hall of Fame Game in Canton, Ohio. Staying in St. Joseph allowed the players and coach to minimize travel in the five-day turnaround between games. Chiefs coach Romeo Crennel said he would remain open to similar arrangements in the future. The right scenario would have to play out again, and Crennel doesn’t see enough added to benefit to seek out a practice partner in future years. He didn’t plan to put any more emphasis on this practice over the others, although both coaches were happy with an increased tempo and competitiveness shown.

The university announced the changes Tuesday, saying they will take effect with the Sept. 1 season opener against Ohio University. The team’s generic look has long been its trademark, but officials say they’re adding the names to recognize the players’ “resolve and dedication.” The uniforms will also sport a blue ribbon to support all victims of child abuse.

Jurick was charged Monday with counts of possession of marijuana and possession of drug paraphernalia. He pleaded not guilty to the misdemeanor charges Monday, and he was scheduled to appear again in court on Aug. 20.

KU had eight turnovers before its first basket and finished the game with 28 giveaways. “I think we were nervous,” KU coach Bill Self said. “(Freshman) Ben (McLemore) and those guys, this is the first game that they’ve played. I haven’t seen these guys play like this from a nervous standpoint yet.” Withey also sensed jitters. “All the freshmen, they’re not used to this kind of stuff — having coach, you know, coaching them finally,” Withey said. “They’re probably pretty shocked. I think they’re going to get more comfortable as we keep on going out on this trip.” Withey led KU with 12 points and 10 rebounds, while Elijah Johnson and Travis Releford both added 11 points. KU freshman Andrew White contributed 10 points, while Young posted nine points and eight rebounds in 13 minutes. The Jayhawks won at

The Jayhawks arrived in Frankfurt, Germany, at around 5:30 a.m. following a 7 1/2 hour flight from Washington, D.C. The team arrived in Zurich at around 10 a.m. local time before departing on a shortened sightseeing trip to Mount Pilatus in Lucerne at noon. Following another twohour drive, KU reached Fribourg at 5:30 p.m. to warm up. The Jayhawks’ best stretch came during the first 15 minutes of the second half, as they turned a 30-all tie into a 71-54 lead with 5:42 left in the fourth quarter. Switzerland scored 19 of the next 23 points before Young’s assist silenced his one critic. “Jeff’s got some good passes. I think we’re neckand-neck right now,” Young said with a smile. “We’ve both got one good pass in so far.” KU and the Swiss national team will rematch today at 10 a.m. U.S. Central time. On Saturday and Sunday, the Jayhawks will play in France against a squad of French A and B League professionals. Both contests will be at 1 p.m. (Central time). None of the games will be covered on radio or TV. Updates will be available at KUSports.com and on Twitter at @KUSports.

FRIBOURG, SWITZERLAND — Even Kansas University coach Bill Self had trouble describing what he saw from Swiss forward David Ramseier in the second quarter of Kansas’ 79-76 exhibition victory Tuesday. After picking up a technical foul, Ramseier went ballistic, spitting in the faces of two officials before being restrained by his coach and teammates. “He went nuts. He went absolutely nuts. I’ve never seen that,” Self said. “I saw Bill Romanowski do it in football one time, and I saw Roberto Alomar do it in baseball one time. But this guy went and actually did it twice. He’s going after the official and did it twice. “He’ll be back (tonight), so it’ll be interesting to see how it all plays out.” The second technical foul resulted in Ramseier’s ejection. “I’ve seen that stuff on YouTube. I thought he was definitely going to go after the ref and knock him out or something,” KU center Jeff Withey said. “It was crazy. I guess that’s how they do it around here.”

They just arrived at my gate. “I don’t know how they pulled it off, but I credit that to my dad. He’s done some crazy stuff. I just showed up, and he was at the gate.” White said he was able to introduce his parents to his teammates. “I was kind of tired, didn’t expect to see my family,” White said. “It was White, family reunite good to go down and talk.

I thought Zach Peters was probably the second-best big man in the game for us behind Jeff there, and he was part of the stretch where we played well. I thought Naadir had a good stretch. But overall, we had (28) turnovers.”

White Sox scored again in the sixth after Kansas City tied it in the top half. But RBI singles by Tony Abreu and Alex Gordon off Peavy (9-8) in the seventh gave Kansas City a 3-2 lead. Butler added to it in the eighth with a two-run drive off Nate Jones after Mike Moustakas walked, and the Royals hung on from there, giving Chen (8-9) his first win since June 26. The left-hander gave up two runs and seven hits in 6 2/3 innings and finally came out on top after going 0-3 in his previous seven starts. It was a big improvement over his previous outing, when

Sims impresses Weis By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

The uncertainty surrounding suspended running back James Sims’ future with the Jayhawks became a little clearer Tuesday. Asked how Sims had responded to being slapped with a three-game suspension following an offseason DUI arrest, Kansas University coach Charlie Weis dished out some pretty serious praise. “Right now, if I had to pick the most complete running back on our team, I would pick J a m e s , ” Sims Weis said of the junior tailback. “I think he responded pretty well. James is way better than I thought he was. He just unfortunately can’t play right now.” Weis was not the only Jayhawk to applaud Sims’ progress. Running backs coach Reggie Mitchell said Sims was a much better back today than he was at the end of the 2011 season,

Phoenix Cardinals on a deflected pass that they should’ve intercepted. That was the only game we won the first 12 weeks, but every game we played hard.” That begged the question, has Weis seen enough from the Jayhawks to determine whether they understand what playing hard is all about? “Oh, I think that message has been sent, loud and clear,” Weis said. “There’s not much of a gray area from me and my staff.”

Smooth as silk Six days into his first fall camp at KU, Weis said he had been impressed by the way his team jumped out of the gate. “There have been no negative surprises,” Weis said during a news conference Tuesday. “You don’t mind when the surprises are positive. The problem is when the surprises are negative, and there’ve been none of those at this point. That means the arrow just keeps gradually pointing up.” Crist and Wisconsin Last winter, when Weis still was the offensive coordinator at Florida, he took a phone call from a former player of his named Dayne Crist, who was looking to leave Notre Dame for one more season of football. With Florida off his list of options, Crist asked his former coach about a few other schools and Weis

James lost a few pounds, so now he’s lighter and faster. He really worked on that in the offseason. He’s much faster.” Still, Weis gushed the most. “People told me he

couldn’t run outside. They were wrong; he can,” Weis said. “People told me he doesn’t have another gear. He does. It might be because he is down 10 pounds. It might be because he’s in great shape. But I’m a big fan of James now. He has a lot of natural running ability, and he’s not afraid to pick up the blitz.” As for what will happen when Sims returns for Week 4? “When he’s back, he’s back,” Weis said. “And when he’s earned the right to play, he’ll play. I’d be very surprised when we go to (Northern) Illinois the fourth week if James isn’t on the field.”

ever to knowing the name of their starting punter and kicker. “The only guy that was an incumbent and I don’t see an easy answer to beating him out is (junior Ron) Doherty because he’s still our best kicker and he’s still our best punter,” Weis said. With Doherty expected to handle both key kicking rolls, Weis said he was looking for areas to pull back. “What I’m trying to do is get a guy that can at least kick off to take off that strain,” he said. “And that guy might not be here yet. Like I always do, I’m working every angle I can to try to find that answer. We’re talking to the rugby club, we’re talking the soccer club.

Word on the street from the past week of our city reporter’s blog It is hard to believe now, but someday a bowl of soup actually will sound good again. Well, when that day comes, it looks like there will be a new option in town. A restaurant called the Sandwich Bowl is slated to open at 3514 Clinton Parkway in the shopping center next to Hy-Vee. More specifically, the store is going into the space formerly occupied by Blue Chip Gourmet. I haven’t talked to the owners, but they have information about the expansion on their website. I’ve got a message into the folks, and I suspect there is a story there about why they are landing in Lawrence because as near as I can tell this is anything but a chain operation. It appears the company owns one other soup and sandwich shop, and it is located in a historic bank building in downtown Harlan, Iowa, population 5,106. As for the restaurant, its tag line is “homestyle sandwiches, soups, salads and desserts.” Based on the menu online, it looks like the restaurant serves some traditional favorites like: chicken salad, egg salad, corned beef, French dip, philly steaks, grilled cheese and a variety of hamburgers. It also has a feature that it calls its “sandwich bowl,” which is a creation where your “sandwich is chopped and served as a salad.” Or as they say, “it’s the forkable sandwich.” Those crazy Iowans.

at 714 Vt. that has made a name for itself by serving locally produced beef and other fare. There have been rumors that Local Burger is set to close for good in the next few weeks. I checked in with owner Hilary Brown, and she said that’s not quite the case. She said it does appear likely that Local Burger will close its Vermont Street location, probably this month. But she said the company is very much interested in re-opening Local Burger in another Lawrence location. In fact, Brown said she has signed a “non-binding letter of intent” to locate in another Lawrence spot, which she did not identify. In other words, she has identified a space she thinks she can move into. But here is where the story takes a little bit of a twist. Brown is hoping a new, technology-based way of raising funds will kick-start the effort. Brown is seeking to raise money for the venture through a website called Kickstarter. The website allows people to propose

an idea and set a goal for a Look for some changes certain amount of funding. in the near future at Lo- Then people from all over cal Burger, the restaurant the Internet world can de-

distribution deal with Whole Foods, the giant organic grocer. That means that Brown’s veggie burgers — which sell under the brand name Hilary’s Eat Well — will be sold in every Whole Foods market in the country. The company is ramping up production, and currently is in about 280 Whole Foods markets. Brown operates the veggie burger business out of rented space in the shopping center at 19th and Haskell. But Brown said the success of the company is requiring her to look at moving the actual production of the burgers to a facility in Kansas City. Brown, however, said the company has a goal in future years of building a large production facility in Lawrence, especially if the negotiations with several very large national retailers continue to progress. It appears Brown’s timing with the veggie burger concept is good. Apparently the drought is creating some concern among veggie burger producers because many of those products rely heavily on soy, which is being hammered by the lack of rain. But Brown’s veggie burger relies a lot on organic millet, which is a pretty drought-resistant crop. Not only is that good

Lots of projects don’t end up raising very much money, but some do. My understanding is that Lawrence film producer Kevin Willmott recently raised about $54,000 to help fund a movie he wants to make called “Jayhawkers,” which details Phog Allen’s efforts to recruit basketball great Wilt Chamberlain. Brown didn’t divulge many details yet, but she said she’ll start her own campaign on Kickstarter, likely this weekend or early next week. Keep an eye out for that. So, what does all this mean for the future of Local Burger in Lawrence? I’m not sure. What seems fairly likely is that Local Burger will close at its Vermont Street location at some point in the notto-distant future. “This really is about transforming Local Burger,” Brown said. “It is tired and has lacked capital from day one.” Brown said she is exploring the idea of opening a Local Burger food truck, which she said might be a way to keep the Local Burger brand going in Lawrence until she can open the new restaurant. It sounds like there is also talk of Local Burger having a presence in Kansas City.

Pancakes bring the campfire to breakfast By J.M. Hirsch AP Food Editor

The trouble with s’mores is that you really do end up wanting more and more of them. So during a recent vacation that generally ended every evening with s’mores by a campfire, I decided to sort out a way to start every day with them, too. Except that I didn’t want to build a campfire quite that early. And if I could do it without all the sugar-induced guilt, that would be nice. It turned out to be easier than I expected, though it took me a few attempts to get it right. The answer — s’mores pancakes. I started with my basic whole-wheat pancake batter (feel free to substitute all-purpose flour if wholewheat doesn’t do it for you). But then I doctored it up with chocolate chips and graham crumbs (grocers sell them by the box in the baking aisle). When serving the s’mores pancakes, we ditched any syrup or other topping. The melty, gooey marshmallow seemed

As soon as the batter is poured into the skillet, sprinkle a bit of graham crumbs over each, then sprinkle a few chocolate chips over that. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, then use a spatula to carefully flip the pancakes. Cook for another Matthew Mead/AP Photo 1 to 2 minutes, or just until lightly browned.

Creamed corn is rich, creamy without cream By Sara Moulton For The Associated Press

There are few foods as simple, delicious and complete as fresh seasonal corn on the cob. When it’s really fresh, I’ll even eat it raw. No boiling, no butter, no salt. It’s perfectly sweet and tender right off the stalk. Still, even perfection can get boring, and I recently began wondering what else I could do with fresh corn. I thought back to my days as the host of the Food Network’s “Cooking Live,” when one of my guest chefs whipped up some corn soup and thickened it with pureed corn. Of course, I’d known that any pureed vegetable will thicken a stew or

soup. But corn has a secret ingredient — Duh! — cornstarch. I was astonished by the creaminess and thickness of my guest’s soup. This recipe was inspired by that soup. Creamed corn is thus named because it usually depends on cream for its creaminess. That’s a problem for me for a couple of reasons. The cream not only makes the dish too rich, it also tends to mask the flavor of the corn itself. So I took a tip from my chef friend and used pureed corn to achieve a silky richness without any additional fat. Caramelized onions add great depth of flavor, while the chili’s heat and lime juice’s acidity balance the sweetness of the corn.

Spicy ‘Creamed’ Corn Start to finish: 30 minutes Servings: 6 10 to 12 ears fresh corn, husked 3/4 cup chicken broth, vegetable broth or water, divided 2 tablespoons grapeseed oil or olive oil 1 medium yellow onion, finely chopped (about 1 cup) Salt 1 serrano chili, seeds and ribs discarded if desired, minced (about 1 tablespoon) 1 to 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice or lemon juice, to taste 1 tablespoon shredded fresh basil or chopped fresh cilantro Ground black pepper Carefully cut the kernels off the ears of corn. To do

this, one at a time stand each ear on its wide end and use a serrated knife to saw down the length of the cob. You should have about 6 cups of kernels. In a blender, combine 1 cup of the kernels and 1/2 cup of the broth. Puree until smooth. Set aside. In a large skillet over medium, heat the oil. Add the onion and a pinch of salt, reduce the heat to moderately low and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden, about 8 minutes. Add the remaining corn kernels and another pinch of salt. Saute for 3 minutes. Add the chili and pureed corn, then bring the mixture to a simmer and cook for 2 minutes. Stir in the remaining 1/4 cup of chicken broth, the lime juice and basil. Season with salt and pepper, then simmer for another minute.

Eating challenge Lawrence’s Dunn Bros promotes local foods Coffee store will soon be

The Merc is gearing up for its fifth annual Eat Local Challenge. The challenge, which rewards participants for purchasing local groceries, farmers’ market products and restaurant meals, runs from Saturday through Aug. 25. This year’s challenge coincides with a new labeling effort at the Merc, in which labels show the miles a product traveled to get to the store and indicate whether the product was raised, grown or made locally. “Eating foods that are

among the first Dunn Bros locations in the country to serve breakfast pastries, salads and sandwiches. Dunn Bros, 1618 W. 23rd St., expects its new menu — including fresh bread products in the morning and sandwiches all day — to be available beginning Monday, according to an announcement from Dunn Bros headquarters. The Lawrence location will be the third Dunn Bros outside Minnesota to add what the company calls a “Provisions” bakery kitchen, enabling the menu expansion.

For example, she said, she may have to press waitstaff for solid answers about a particular dish and how it’s prepared, and even turn down a salad if the kitchen is unable to prepare it in a separate bowl from salads prepared with croutons. For restaurants, providing gluten-free items is not cheap, and it’s not necessarily profitable. Gluten-free pasta, flour or bread can cost many times more than their traditional wheat counterparts. While diners usually pay more for those options, it’s not always enough for a restaurant to profit on the product. Holiday, for example, said he charges only what he pays for gluten-free buns. Still, he said, there are other benefits to catering to gluten-free diners. “It’s more of an added bonus to us because we can feed these people with the special dietary needs when we hadn’t in the past,” Holiday said. “Hopefully they’ll come back a little more frequently, or tell friends.” Kazmi said Mariscos has gained a loyal following of regulars who know their dietary restrictions will be accommodated. And, he said, most arrive with one or more customers who order from the regular menu. “You can still have a good meal,” he said, “but also they can enjoy their meal as well.”

marked with “GF” on the menu, and for an upcharge, customers can substitute gluten-free pasta in macaroni and cheese. Owner Nancy Nguyen, who opened the restaurant a year and a half ago, estimated that about half her Oh Boy! Chicken customers have problems with gluten and the other half just enjoy the chicken. “People love it,” Nguyen said.

Challenges remain That’s not to say everything labeled or described by a server as gluten-free is 100 percent safe for the most sensitive patrons. It’s estimated that more than half of the consumers buying gluten-free products don’t have clear-cut adverse reactions to gluten, according to the Associated Press. These customers buy gluten-free because they think it will help them lose weight, they seem to feel better or they mistakenly believe they are sensitive to gluten. But for people with celiac disease, even a trace of gluten can make them sick. Stuewe said some restaurants are better than others about training servers and ensuring their gluten-free dishes aren’t “cross-contaminated” during preparation. Stuewe said it hasn’t been easy but that she’s learned to be assertive when she eats out.

More restaurants cater to guests with food sensitivities By Sara Shepherd sshepherd@ljworld.com

THE GLUTEN-FREE FRIED CHICKEN from Oh Boy! Chicken, 1006 Mass., has a crispy, crunchy coating.

What is celiac disease? While many gluten-free eaters are spurred by faddishness, research suggests more people are truly getting sick from the gluten found in wheat, rye and barley. Scientists have explored everything from changes in the frequency of diagnoses to biological changes to wheat, but the reasons for gluten intolerance aren’t clear. In the most serious cases, gluten triggers celiac disease. The condition causes abdominal pain, bloating and intermittent diarrhea. Those with the ailment don’t absorb nutrients as well and can suffer weight loss, fatigue, rashes and other problems. Celiac disease is diagnosed with blood testing, genetic testing or biopsies of the small intestine. Doctors also recognize “gluten sensitivity,” but its definition is ambiguous. It’s a label for people who suffer bloating and other celiac disease symptoms and seem to be helped by avoiding gluten, but don’t actually have celiac disease. — The Associated Press

Since being diagnosed with celiac disease more than three years ago, Lawrence resident Liz Stuewe’s dining-out options have started looking up. She can now order everything from gluten-free pasta to cake, plus tasty gluten-free takes on other normally off-limits foods. “It’s so weird to be able to go out and get fried chicken,” Stuewe said. Whether diners’ reasons stem from medical necessity or fad diets, gluten-free eating has exploded in recent years. In response, Lawrence restaurants increasingly are taking steps to make dining out gluten-free hassle-free. Stuewe, who uses the Twitter handle @gfreelawrence, says her experiences at local establishments have been really positive. “For the most part, restaurants are really excited to work with you and talk to you about it,” she said.

Increasing demand, supply A stark contrast from a decade ago, millions of Americans now eschew foods containing gluten, a

protein found in some grain-based foods, and they’re expected to spend an estimated $7 billion this year on foods labeled gluten-free, the Associated Press reports. It’s common for Italian restaurants to offer gluten-free pasta as a substitute, and most pizza restaurants now sell gluten-free crust. Minsky’s Pizza, 934 Mass., takes that a step further by offering a separate gluten-free menu and cooking gluten-free pizza in separate pans from wheat-crust orders, Stuewe said. Besides pizza, she said, Minsky’s menu also features “delicious” gluten-free cake. At Mariscos, 4821 W. Sixth St., diners can get a gluten-free menu — and even a gluten-free bread basket — upon request. General manager Ash Kazmi, who’s been at the restaurant two years, said he’s seen gluten-free meal requests increase from one or two per week to multiple times daily. “Now, it’s very commonplace,” he said. Mariscos’ two-page gluten-free menu features a number of the restaurant’s popular dishes with pasta or bread replaced by gluten-free varieties. It also features dishes

from the regular menu that are gluten-free anyway, such as steak with sauteed vegetables on the side. Even though some items would be gluten-free by default, such as salad, having them on an specific gluten-free menu helps confirm there’s no unlisted croutons or hidden gluten ingredients, such as thickener in the salad dressing. After a “drastic uptick” in requests for gluten-free meals, Bigg’s Barbecue, 2429 Iowa, rolled out its “gluten-sensitive” menu a few months ago, owner Doug Holiday said. In addition to offering sandwiches on gluten-free buns, the menu helps clear up whether the burgers have breadcrumb filler (they don’t) or whether there’s flour in the sauces (there isn’t). The menu helps both customers and servers, Holiday said. He said he has several friends with gluten sensitivity and that at many places, “It’s a guessing game of what you can eat or what you can’t.” Oh Boy! Chicken, 1006 Mass., specializes in gluten-free fried chicken, catfish and chicken-fried steak. Gluten-free side items are Please see GLUTEN, page 7B
