Haskell’s athletic programs put on probation through 2014

By Shaun Hittle sdhittle@ljworld.com

The Haskell Indian Nations University men’s and women’s athletic programs have been placed on probation through 2014

for “violations involving ineligible players,” according to the website of the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics, or NAIA. The Journal-World was unable to reach a repre-

sentative from Haskell Tuesday afternoon for comment.

The probation listing is just the most recent development following a JournalWorld investigation that began in May. An anony-

Postal complaint leads to seizure of money, drugs

By Shaun Hittle sdhittle@ljworld.com

A Lawrence man’s complaint about lost mail has led to a federal warrant and the seizure of $7,100 and 1.5 pounds of marijuana.

According to a civil lawsuit filed in U.S. District Court, Joseph Goode contacted postal authorities after a package he sent containing $10,000 allegedly never made it to its intended destination in California. Authorities determined Goode was sending the money to purchase drugs and, based on that information, executed a search warrant of his home at 838 E. 12th St. in April. That search netted 1.5 pounds of marijuana and $7,100 in cash, according to court documents.

The lawsuit filed Thursday seeks the forfeiture of money that agents found in the home.

Goode has not been charged criminally in either federal court or in Douglas County.

Jim Cross, a spokesman for U.S. Attorney Barry Grissom’s office, which filed the lawsuit, said he could not comment on or verify the existence of a criminal investigation involving Goode.

D.A. promotes ‘Lock ‘n’ Light’ strategy After a rash of summer home burglaries in Lawrence, Douglas County District Attorney Charles Branson on Tuesday announced a new program called “Lock ‘n’ Light” to help Lawrence residents ward off would-be thieves.

County residents can pick up two free compact fluorescent light bulbs at several area locations, such as the District Attorney’s Office and the Lawrence, Baldwin City and Eudora public libraries. Branson said the idea is for residents to use the free bulbs to help keep porch lights or other lighting on overnight.

That’s one of the

simplest and cheapest ways to deter burglars, Branson said.

The “lock” portion of the program is to encourage residents to lock all doors.

Branson said that in many of the recent burglaries, entry has been made through unlocked doors.

“We need to lock, and we need to light,” Branson said.

The light bulbs were provided at cost by Home Depot, and the District Attorney’s Office used forfeited assets from drug cases to purchase the 1,000 bulbs. The bulbs will be available until they run out, Branson said.

Victim in deadly shooting an LHS graduate

By Shaun Hittle sdhittle@ljworld.com

A 2008 Lawrence High School graduate was a victim in a murder-suicide in Topeka over the weekend.

The body of Kahlyn Heine, 22, was discovered Saturday morning in an apartment at 238 SW Gage Blvd., according to Topeka police.

Police say Heine was shot by Jeremiah Campbell, 26, who then shot and killed himself. Officers were dispatched to the apartment complex after a tenant reported finding a bullet hole in the wall of her apartment.

Topeka police spokeswoman Kristen Veverka said they could not verify the relationship between Heine and Campbell, but said they both lived at the apartment.

Heine had just begun a job as a special-education teacher at Shawnee Heights Elementary School after graduating from Washburn University earlier this year.

“She was a tremendous teacher with a great deal of potential,” said Marty Stessman, superintendent for the Shawnee Heights school district. Stessman said that counselors from the district were brought in to assist students and staff.

Police have not released a motive in the shooting, and are asking anyone with information about the case to contact Detective Scott Dickey at 785-368-9029 — Reporter Shaun Hittle can be reached at 832-7173. Follow him at Twitter.com/shaunhittle.

Kansas opts out of federal Recreational Trails Program

By Scott Rothschild srothschild@ljworld.com

TOPEKA — Kansas is one of only two states that has opted out of the federal Recreational Trails Program, officials said Tuesday.

News of the development brought criticism from trail enthusiasts, plus a call to action.

“This opt-out is a blow to Kansas trail development, for sure, but it’s hardly the last word on the subject,” said a posting on the Kansas Cyclist

website. “All of us need to contact our elected officials and voice our disappointment with this decision. Tell them we value trails, both as recreation and transportation.”

A Kansas Department of Transportation official said the state opted out to gain more leeway in how it can spend federal dollars.

“It gives us maximum flexibility,” said Chris Herrick, director of planning and development at KDOT. That flexibility is need-

ed, Herrick said, because under the recently approved federal transportation law, Kansas saw a $26 million reduction in federal funds, from $392 million to $366 million.

Of that amount, $10.3 million was earmarked for what are called transportation alternative projects, Herrick said. Of the $10.3 million, the feds said $1.3 million was to be spent on recreational trails, or states could opt out and a portion of that amount can Please see TRAILS, page 4A

County leaders to decide on support for K-10 bus service

By Chad Lawhorn clawhorn@ljworld.com

Douglas County leaders soon enough are going to have to figure out whether they want to financially help Johnson County with its strapped transit system.

That’s right, at least in the area of transit, Douglas County has the financial upper hand over its wealthy neighbor to the east.

Now, Douglas County leaders have to decide whether they want to provide financing to the K-10 Connector bus service that runs between Lawrence and the campuses of the Johnson County Community College and Kansas University’s Edwards Campus.

Bob Nugent, the city’s transit administrator, told the city’s Public Transit Advisory Board on Tuesday that he needs some guidance on how to proceed.

He said the service has value to the overall region, but he’s not sure whether it falls into Lawrence’s public transit mission.

“The local referendum

we had several years ago was to improve service here in Lawrence,” Nugent said, referring to the 2008 election that approved two sales taxes to support transit. “Do we want to spend money to help a regional organization? I think that is what we have to discuss.”

Area leaders will have some time to discuss it. Nugent said Johnson County leaders have told him the K-10 Connector service is safe through 2013. Johnson County also hasn’t requested a specific dollar amount to help the service meet its funding challenges.

Currently, neither Lawrence nor Douglas County provide funding for the commuter service. Nugent said several leaders from the city, Douglas County and KU have agreed to meet with Johnson County officials and the Kansas Department of Transportation.

Johnson County estimates about 60 percent of the ridership originates in Lawrence, and both sides agree the service is primarily used either by stu-

dents or people who work at KU or one of the Johnson County campuses.

But Danny Kaiser, assistant director of parking and transit for KU, said KU likely will not be supportive of any idea that involves increasing student fees to subsidize the K-10 Connector service.

“The number of students being served by the service is relatively small when you compare it to the whole student body,” Kaiser said. “I think we’ll get a lot of push back if this isn’t user-fee driven but rather student-fee driven.”

Johnson County transit officials estimate 825 riders use the service during the school year. The service — which provides about 160,000 rides throughout the year — costs about $940,000 to operate.

Members of the city’s transit advisory board said figuring out how much to support the K-10 service will be a balancing act.

Child advocacy group challenges KU governor’s assertions on tax cuts

By Scott Rothschild srothschild@ljworld.com

TOPEKA — One day after Gov. Sam Brownback sought to defend his tax cuts at the Lied Center in Lawrence, a child advocacy group released a report stating that the tax cuts will be bad for children and families.

Kansas Action for Children said Tuesday that the cuts will reduce revenues for necessary state services, increase taxes on the lowest-income Kansans, and incentivize businesses to reorganize to avoid paying state income taxes.

“Ultimately, the package of tax changes enacted by lawmakers will negatively impact Kansas children and families in a number of ways,” the group said in its report.

Earlier this year, Brownback signed into law sweeping tax cuts that will reduce state individual income tax rates and exempt the owners of nearly 200,000 partnerships, sole proprietorships and other businesses from income taxes.

He said the tax cuts will produce 23,000 new jobs, give Kansans $2 billion more in disposable income and add 35,000 in population.

some benefit to our community, so we don’t want to completely cut it off,” said Jane Huesmann, a member of the advisory board. “But we don’t want it to detract from what we’re trying to do locally, especially from a funding standpoint.”

Nugent said he expects elected leaders and staff members from the two counties to begin discussing possible partnerships within the next one to two months.

In other transit-related news:

Nugent said his office has begun work to move the city’s main transfer location for the buses back to Ninth and Massachusetts streets, away from the current area in the 900 block of New Hampshire street.

Nugent said the move is needed to accommodate future development of the southeast corner of Ninth and New Hampshire streets, which is slated to house a new multistory hotel/retail building.

Nugent also said the city is working to create a request for proposals that would hire a consultant to study long-term locations for a new transit hub.

As he has said before, the consultant will be expected to study sites outside the downtown area because sites that could accommodate a number of buses and provide indoor waiting room space for riders is limited in downtown.

Nugent said he expects the request for proposals be issued within the next month. He thinks the study, which likely will cost about $40,000, to be completed by mid-2013.

City officials want to hear from residents about how a late-night bus service should operate.

The city’s 2013 budget includes $250,000 to fund a pilot program that would extend the hours of the city’s public transit system to cover the time period from 8 p.m. to 6 a.m. Monday through Saturday.

City officials have said the service likely would be a demand-response system, which means riders would need to somehow request a ride rather than simply wait at a bus stop.

Transit officials want to hear ideas residents have for the service. The city is asking people to fill out a survey on the city’s public transit website at lawrencetransit.org.

Nugent said his office hasn’t yet developed a timeline for when the service could begin.

“We are trying to create a pro-growth environment,” he told about 1,200 people on Monday during the Anderson Chandler lecture series presented by the Kansas University School of Business.

But Kansas Action for Children said there is no requirement that jobs be created under the tax exemption for businesses on “pass-through income.”

The group notes that legislative staff have said the state budget will face a cumulative $2.5 billion shortfall of revenue, equal to 37.4 percent of the state general fund budget. Brownback has said “core services” will be protected, but Kansas Action for Children said “it is difficult to envision a scenario where core services are not negatively impacted.”

And while tax rates are reduced for all income levels, there are parts of the new tax law that revoke provisions aimed at helping lower-income Kansans.

Those include the food sales tax rebate and the homestead property tax program for renters.

An analysis by the Washington, D.C.-based Institute on Taxation and Economic Public Policy shows that

taxes as a percentage of income are reduced under the new law for all income levels except the lowestincome taxpayers.

The top 1 percent of Kansans, earning $400,000 or more per year, will see an average tax cut of $21,087, or 2 percent. Meanwhile, the lowest 20 percent of Kansans, earning less than $20,000 per year, will see an increase in tax liability of $148, or 1.3 percent, according to the study.

Kansas Action for Children makes three recommendations to mitigate the impact of the tax cuts.

They are:

Preserve the Earned Income Tax Credit.

Restore the Child and Dependent Care Credit.

Limit the passthrough business income tax exemption to the first $100,000 in non-wage income. This would provide the tax break for small businesses that the governor said he wanted, the group said.

“Ultimately, this will avoid or reduce the budget cuts necessary as a result of the 2012 Kansas tax changes,” the group said.

Bob Page, president and chief executive officer of KU Hospital, said he was pleased that donations to the hospital contributed to the fiscal year’s results.

“We look forward to our continued partnership with KU Endowment and playing a role in the success of the Far Above campaign,” he said.

KU Endowment is the independent, nonprofit organization serving as the official fundraising and fund-management organization for KU. Founded in 1891, KU Endowment was the first foundation of its kind at a U.S. public university. The KU Hospital is a partner in philanthropy with KU Endowment.

Here is the amount donors have given for each of the last five years.

2008 — $94 million

2009 — $106.4 million

2010 — $122.4 million

2011 — $153.2 million

2012 — $156.5 million

be spent on other projects, Herrick said.

Kansas and Florida opted out.

He said no decision has been made yet on how to spend that money, and said some of the funds may eventually be spent on recreational trails.

“We haven’t made a decision on where we are going to spend that kind of money,” he said. “We are getting $26 million less from the previous transportation bill. Revenue is tight.”

Keith Laughlin, president of the Washington, D.C.-based Rails-to-Trails

Conservancy, criticized the federal transportation bill, saying it created more ways for states to transfer funds away from hiking and biking trails programs.

Kansas’ decision to opt out, Laughlin said, “was in truth quite a surprise.” He said the group will continue working with state officials in Kansas “to improve future outcomes.”

KANSAS CITY, KAN. — Kansas University Hospital reported Tuesday during its board meeting that it took care of a record number of patients during the past year.

It had 28,331 inpatient visits during fiscal year 2012, which ended June 30, a 4.9 percent increase from 2011. Outpatient visits grew 45 percent to 530,918, surgeries rose 6.4 percent to 18,867, and emergency room visits increased 4.8 percent to 47,771.

Jon Jackson, senior vice president and chief administrative officer, said he believes the growth stems from a stable work force and a focus on patient satisfaction.

“We get a lot of repeat customers that are pleased once they’ve experienced the care here,” he said. “I think the other thing is outcomes. People actually leave here that were not expected to live when they came to us for care.”

Jackson said the severity of the illnesses of those hospitalized during the past year was the highest recorded. KU ranks in the top 25 percent of teaching hospitals in caring for the sickest patients.

He said KU Hospital has expanded its facilities to meet the growing demand for its services.

It recently added 84 beds in a three-floor expansion project and six operating rooms.

“Those were easy expansions and quick expansions because the building structure and infrastructure was already there,” he said. “We are pretty much at the end of that except for maybe a bed or two.”

He said leaders are now looking at multiyear building projects if it wants to add a significant number of beds.

On Tuesday, KU Hospital leaders also discussed:

Plans to open an inpatient rehabilitation center in a new $50 million, mixed-use development at the southwest corner of 39th Street and Rainbow Boulevard. The first phase of the development, which recently opened, includes a new

Soldiers of Fortune HD R … and much more!

83-room Holiday Inn Express and Suites, Five Guys Burgers and Fries and retail shops.

KU Hospital’s rehabilitation center is part of the development’s second phase, which is expected to be complete in fall 2013.

It will lease 27,800 square feet on the second floor of a building for rehabilitation, which will replace its current center. The second phase also includes two more floors — three and four — that will be leased by Kansas City Transitional Care Center for a skilled nursing rehabilitation facility.

Jackson said KU Hospital will work in partnership with the skilled nursing facility to provide a continuum of care for patients who are needing rehabilitation.

A newly renovated Pediatrics and Pediatrics Intensive Care Unit that opened Tuesday on the fourth floor of the hospital. It has 19 pediatric beds and six intensive care unit beds. The project cost $6.5 million.

The board’s first meeting in a new room above the gift shop at the hospital. The room is part of a $4 million lobby renovation project that began about one year ago and is expected to be finished in a couple of months.

The project includes new lighting, painting and signage. Before the renovation work, the board had to meet elsewhere because the hospital didn’t have a large conference room. Jackson said the room also can be used for emergency response if there is a crisis. He said all of the power is provided by a generator, and the room has teleconferencing and videoconferencing capabilities and about a dozen phone lines.

Would you be more likely to recycle if the city had curbside recycling?

Asked on Massachusetts Street

Caitlin O’Reilly, works in personnel at Walmart, Wichita “Yes, it’s just convenient and you’d think about it more.”

Derrick Mahoney, works for the Kansas Highway Patrol, Meriden “Absolutely. It’s just the convenience of it. ”

Cris Clay, waiter, Lawrence “Yes, you wouldn’t have to put in tons of effort.”

Dale White, I.T. manager, Melbourne, Australia “It’s a very good idea. It would make it more easy to be environmentally aware.”

Rec center CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A

bring its proposed $24 million recreation center and youth fieldhouse to the site, and Lawrence Mayor Bob Schumm said Tuesday night the city is interested in doing so.

“We have stated all along that we want to continue a relationship with KU, and that is still true today,” Schumm said.

“This new site has a lot more acreage involved, and we think we potentially could get more uses out of it for the city.”

The new site is more than 87 acres of ground north of the proposed Mercato retail development at the northeast corner of Sixth Street and the South Lawrence Trafficway. The Journal-World previously reported city officials were exploring a possible purchase of the property, which is just north of where George Williams Way currently dead-ends north of Sixth Street. But in a letter to city officials, KU Athletic Director Sheahon Zenger

said Kansas University Endowment Association has agreed to purchase the property.

Zenger said in the letter that KU was motivated to move to the new site because it could accommodate not only a soccer field and track and field stadium, which were proposed at the previous location, but also a new softball complex. Zenger said the new site will allow the university to address all three issues, and make progress on satisfying Title IX requirements for the women’s soccer and softball programs.

Other details from the proposal, which was announced after the City Commission met for 45 minutes in executive session Tuesday night, include:

The future of a proposed partnership with Lawrence businessman Thomas Fritzel to build the city recreation center and lease it back to the city on a 20-year leasepurchase agreement is uncertain. Schumm said the city was still trying to determine how the new location would affect that arrangement.

The idea of adding more than 100 acres of new retail development on the northwest corner of the intersection is now clearly in question. Schumm said the city will have a hearing on the proposed retail zoning at its meeting next week. But Schumm said he was no longer interested in approving the retail zoning since it appears unlikely that a sports complex will be located on the site. A group led by Lawrence businessman Duane Schwada had proposed building retail development adjacent to the new sports complex. Schwada, however, does own retailzoned land that is adjacent to the newly proposed site.

Schumm said that with the additional acreage at the new site, the city and KU will explore the possibility of adding lighted tennis courts, a cross country jogging path and other amenities that could be used by Lawrence residents.

Cost estimates to develop the new site are still being formulated, but the city believes infrastructure costs likely will be less because the site is on the east side of the South Lawrence

Wednesday, September 12, 2012 Trafficway. The previous site required costly extension of water and sewer service across the SLT.

Zenger said the new plan — especially with KU Endowment being the proposed owner of the property — would allow the university to take more of a leadership role in the development of the complex.

“Since the inception of the ‘West of the Bypass’ discussions, it has been noted publicly and privately that Kansas Athletics was not significantly invested in the project,” Zenger wrote. “This notion was not lost on us.”

City commissioners are scheduled to discuss the new proposal in more detail at its meeting next Tuesday evening.

In other city news, commissioners approved a request to get bids for a new citywide recycling service. Bids are due by late October, which will give city commissioners a better idea of how much a new citywide service would cost to operate.

The National Merit Scholarship semifinalists in Lawrence were announced today. AT LEFT: Free State High School’s semifinalists, from left, are Juan Torres Gavosto (National Hispanic Scholar), Adam Fales, Alexander Heath, Katherine Guyot, Caitlin Erickson, and Andrei Elliott. AT RIGHT: Lawrence High School’s National Merit Scholarship semifinalists, from left, are Julia Drahozal, Hazlett Henderson, and Connor Murphy. BELOW is Bishop Seabury Academy’s semifinalist, Martin Sicilian.

National Merit Scholarship semifinalists named

By Alex Garrison acgarrison@ljworld.com

Tests may not be the only measure of success, but success on one particular test has landed several Lawrence teens a national honor — and perhaps a big scholarship package.

Nine Lawrence seniors have been named semifinalists in the National Merit Scholarship search: five from Free State High School, three from Lawrence High School and one from Bishop Seabury Academy. All will compete for about 8,300 scholarships given nationally to Merit Scholar winners.

The semifinalist designation is based on scores on the PSAT, which the stu-

dents took last year. The National Merit Scholarship Corp. now will consider their SAT scores, an application essay and reference letters to determine finalists. About 90 percent of the 16,000 semifinalists will be selected as finalists, and winners are selected from that pool, according to the corporation.

Juan Torres Gavosto, a Free State senior, also was named a National Hispanic Scholar. That designation is made by the College Board, the organization that distributes the PSAT, but it does not come with a monetary scholarship.

Still in the early days of their senior year, the 10 students said they’re most-

ly undecided about where they will attend college.

Almost all said they had an interest in going out of state, but “it all comes down to financial aid,” as Katherine Guyot said.

The semifinalists are listed below by school, along with their top choices for colleges and majors.

Free State High School

Andrei Elliott — undecided, mathematics or engineering

Caitlin Erickson — Stanford, undecided

Adam H. Fales — undecided, high school English teacher

Katherine Guyot — undecided, journalism or publishing

One of two Topeka men accused of attempting to rob three Kansas University students in late August has pleaded guilty.

Garrett Paulson, 19, pleaded guilty to attempted aggravated robbery and criminal threat Tuesday in Douglas County District Court.

The charges stem from an Aug. 29 incident at The Reserve apartment complex, 2511 W. 31st St., in which three students were approached by two men, one of whom had a gun.

A struggle ensued between the armed suspect and a male student standing outside an SUV. The suspect punched the victim, then struck the victim on his head with the pistol, which fired into the ground, according to police.

The suspects took the victim’s keys and fled in another vehicle.

Sterling James Wilkins, 19, has been charged with attempted aggravated robbery, aggravated battery and interfering with a law enforcement officer in the incident. His preliminary hearing is scheduled for Oct. 3.

Volunteers sought for advisory councils The Lawrence school district is looking for community volunteers for two advisory committees. The

equity council meets at 6:30 p.m. the third Wednesday of the month, and the finance group SCHOOLS will meet monthly, on a day to be determined.

The finance council is particularly looking for volunteers with accounting or auditing experience.

Applications are due by the end of this month and are available on the district’s website, usd497.org.

For more information about the equity council, contact Anna Stubblefield at 330-1760; for the finance advisory council, contact Kyle Hayden at 330-4309.

4 men arrested in copper theft Four Topeka men were arrested Monday after a morning theft at a Lecompton business.

According to a news release from the Shawnee County Sheriff’s Office, about 1,000 feet of copper wiring was cut from machinery at Mid-States Materials LLC at 2 N. 1700 Road. An employee from Advantage Metals in Topeka notified police when four men tried to sell the copper to the business.

Police investigated and arrested John D. Smith, 31; Frankie Lee Graham, 31; Tyler

Damages to Mid-States — with locations in both Douglas and Shawnee counties — is estimated at $30,000.

Smaller memorials on anniversary of 9/11

By Jennifer Peltz and Meghan Barr Associated Press

NEW YORK — There were still the tearful messages to loved ones, clutches of photos and flowers, and moments of silence. But 11 years after Sept. 11, Americans appeared to enter a new, scaled-back chapter of collective mourning for the worst terror attack in U.S. history.

Crowds gathered, as always, at the World Trade Center site in New York, the Pentagon and a Pennsylvania memorial Tuesday to mourn the nearly 3,000 victims of the 2001 terror attacks, reciting their names and remembering with music, tolling bells and prayer.

But they came in fewer numbers, ceremonies were less elaborate and some cities canceled their remembrances altogether. A year after the milestone 10th anniversary, some said the memorials may have reached an emotional turning point.

“It’s human nature, so

people move on,” said Wanda Ortiz, of New York City, whose husband, Emilio Ortiz, was killed in the trade center’s north tower, leaving behind her and their 5-month-old twin daughters. “My concern now is ... how I keep the memory of my husband alive.”

It was also a year when politicians largely took a back seat to grieving families; no elected officials spoke at all at New York’s 3 1/2-hour ceremony. President Barack Obama and Republican Mitt Romney pulled negative campaign ads and avoided rallies, with the president laying a wreath at the Pentagon ceremony and visiting wounded soldiers at a Maryland hospital. And beyond the victims of the 2001 attacks, attention was paid to the wars that followed in Iraq and Afghanistan.

In Middletown, N.J., a bedroom community that lost 37 residents in the attacks, town officials laid a wreath at the entrance to the park in a small, silent ceremony. Last year, 3,700

people attended a remembrance with speeches, music and names read.

“This year,” said Deputy Mayor Stephen Massell, “I think less is more.”

Some worried that moving on would mean Sept. 11 will fade from memory.

“It’s been 11 years already,” said Michael Reneo, whose sister-in-law, Daniela Notaro, was killed at the trade center. “And unfortunately for some, the reality of this day seems to be fading as the years go by. ... I hope we never lose focus on what really happened here.”

Thousands had attended the ceremony in New York in previous years, including last year’s milestone 10th anniversary. In New York, a crowd of fewer than 200 swelled to about 1,000 by late Tuesday morning, as family members laid roses and made paper rubbings of their loved ones’ names etched onto the Sept. 11 memorial. A few hundred attended ceremonies at the Pentagon and in Shanksville, Pa., fewer than in years past.

Gridlocked Congress already eying early getaway

By Andrew Taylor Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Efforts in Congress to provide emergency drought aid to hard-hit farmers and overhaul crop subsidy programs appear to be falling victim to Washington gridlock.

Talk of action now to avoid sending the economy over the “fiscal cliff” is just that, talk.

Indeed, lawmakers have only been back in session for a couple of days since returning from their August recess, but on Tuesday were already anticipating a quick exit from Washington to hit the campaign trail — with the only significant accomplishment being a must-pass bill to avoid a

when they expire Sept. 30.

For his part, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., was far more hopeful that “some kind of agreement” would be reached to avert the Reid fiscal cliff — a one-two combination of automatic tax increases and across-the-board spending cuts set to strike the economy on Jan. 2.

After the election, though. Not now.

“I’m hopeful we will reach some kind of agreement,” Reid said, suggesting that the results of the Nov. 6 elections will weaken the GOP’s resolve

BUSINESS AT A GLANCE

The Internal Revenue Service has awarded an ex-banker $104 million for providing information about overseas tax cheats — the largest amount ever awarded by the agency, lawyers for the whistleblower announced Tuesday.

Former Swiss banker Bradley Birkenfeld is credited with exposing widespread tax evasion at Swiss bank UBS AG. Birkenfeld himself served roughly two and a half years in prison for a fraud conspiracy conviction related to the case, which resulted in a $780 million fine against the bank and an agreement requiring UBS to turn over thousands of names of suspected American tax dodgers to the IRS.

Tuesday at the U.S. Capitol, like so many other days, featured lots of talk but little action.

House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, started the day off on a sour note by telling reporters after a closed-door morning caucus with the GOP rank and file that he’s not confident Congress can reach a budget deal late this year and avoid a downgrading of the U.S. debt rating.

A couple of hours later, the Democratic chairman of the Senate Agriculture Committee, Sen. Debbie Stabenow of Michigan, again threw cold water on GOP hopes of passing a short-term extension of food and farm programs

Ford’s board may consider CEO succession Thursday

By Dee-Ann Durbin Associated Press

DETROIT — Ford Motor Co.’s board of directors is meeting Thursday, and CEO succession could be on the agenda.

The directors are close to promoting Mark Fields to chief operating officer, Bloomberg reported Tuesday, citing an unnamed source. The promotion would make Fields the probable successor to 67-year-old CEO Alan Mulally, a Kansas University alumnus. The report also said that Mulally is expected to step down at the end of 2013.

Ford said the report was speculative and wouldn’t confirm it. But the company said it takes succession seriously and has a plan in place for each of its leadership positions.

At least one board member contacted by The Associated Press referred all questions to Ford.

Mulally is one of the most respected CEOs in corporate America. He is revered at Ford for turning around the company after being hired in 2006. Soon after, he made the critical decision to take out a $23 billion loan. He used the money to cut workers and brands and speed up product development. He has

now presided over 13 consecutive quarterly profits.

M u lally has never said Mulally publicly when he will retire, but Ford is under pressure to prove it can keep its turnaround Fields on track after he leaves. Naming Fields or another successor while Mulally is still in charge would ensure an orderly transition.

Fields, 51, has long been considered a front-runner for the top job. The 23-year veteran of the company developed the restructuring plan that Mulally used as his blueprint when he came to Ford. As president of the Americas, a job he has held since 2005, Fields has led Ford’s North American operations to near-record profits.

Another frequently mentioned contender is Joe Hinrichs, 45, who is currently presiding over a major Asian expansion as head of Ford’s Asia Pacific and African operations.

to block tax increases on wealthier earners and that Republicans will be more willing to compromise.

“I believe that once the elections are over, the tea McConnell party’s strength will be significantly weakened,” Reid added.

Reid’s GOP counterpart, Minority Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, let the cat out of the bag just minutes after Reid’s remarks. He said the six-month spending bill, called a continuing resolution in Washington lingo, would be the last order of business until the

postelection lame duck session in November.

McConnell told reporters that Reid “has indicated to us that the continuing resolution would be the last item of this work period.”

The House is set to pass the continuing resolution on Thursday, which means the Senate would pass the measure next week before making its getaway.

On the food and farm bill impasse, McConnell said: “I don’t believe that we ought to let the current farm bill expire if we’re unable at this point to pass a replacement.” Hope for that is fading however; Congress is instead on track to fund food stamps through the continuing resolution.

American diplomat killed in protest CAIRO (AP) — Protesters angered over a film that ridiculed Islam’s Prophet Muhammad fired gunshots and burned down the U.S. consulate in the eastern Libyan city of Benghazi, killing one American diplomat and witnesses, the State Department said. In Egypt, protesters scaled the walls of the U.S. embassy in Cairo and replaced an American flag with an Islamic banner.

It was the first such assaults on U.S. diplomatic facilities in either country, at a time when both Libya and Egypt are struggling to overcome the turmoil following the ouster of their longtime leaders, Moammar Gadhafi and Hosni Mubarak in uprisings last year.

The protests in both countries were sparked by outrage over a film ridiculing Muhammad produced by an American in California and being promoted by an extreme anti-Muslim Egyptian Christian campaigner in the United States. Excerpts from the film dubbed into Arabic were posted on YouTube.

U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton confirmed that one State Department officer had been killed in the protest at the U.S. consulate in Benghazi. She strongly condemned the attack, and said she had called Libyan President Mohammed el-Megarif “to coordinate additional support to protect Americans in Libya.”

Clinton expressed concern the protests might spread. She said the U.S. is working with “partner countries around the world to protect our personnel, our missions, and American citizens worldwide.”

Remedial work Kansas university leaders are turning a potential negative into a positive for their students.

C

ongratulations to Kansas higher education officials for taking a positive approach to legislation passed earlier this year that will bar state universities from using state tax dollars to pay for remedial courses.

It’s easy to see why university officials would be put off by the micromanaging tone of the bill, which was pushed by House Speaker Mike O’Neal, R-Hutchinson. However, according to Kansas Board of Regents President and Chief Executive Officer Andy Tompkins, passage of the bill has prompted university leaders to take a hard look at the experience of freshmen.

University officials were particularly concerned about how the legislation would affect students who generally were high achievers but needed help in one subject — most often, math — but a change in the bill helped address that problem. Originally, the legislation would have lowered the number of freshmen or transfer students who could be admitted through the “exception window” for students who don’t meet minimum admission standards. Before the bill was passed, however, legislators agreed not to reduce the “exceptions” numbers but to require universities to develop individual plans for all students admitted through that window.

Remedial courses still can be offered, but state funds can’t be used. Tompkins said such courses probably would be funded through tuition.

The positive part of this action is that, rather than simply admitting students and offering remedial classes, state universities will have to look at what individual students need to be academically successful. Instead of just offering remedial courses and letting the chips fall where they may, universities will be more responsible for providing academic and support services to those students.

That’s important not only to the students and families paying tuition but to universities, like Kansas University, that are trying to raise their academic stature.

Ranking entities pay close attention to student retention and graduation rates, both of which seem likely to rise as the universities work harder to meet the needs of their new students.

The remedial classes legislation may have offended some university officials, but it also made the valid point: Students who attend Kansas universities need to be prepared to do university work, and if universities are going to admit students who need remedial courses, they need to pay extra attention to making sure those students are successful. It’s nice to see state higher education officials getting that point and turning it into a positive for their students.

Gay marriage critics are old news We are gathered here today to discuss two recent controversies about samesex marriage. One comes from the world of pigskin, the other from the world of chicken fat.

You are surely familiar with the latter. It unfolded a few weeks ago over comments by Dan Cathy, president of Chick-fil-A. In interviews with the Biblical Recorder newspaper and radio host Ken Coleman, he confirmed his company’s opposition to same-sex marriage. “Guilty as charged,” he told the paper.

Cathy’s comments kicked off one of those only-inAmerica firestorms. Gay rights groups denounced the fast-food chain. Conservatives responded with a Chick-fil-A Appreciation Day, which reportedly drove the company to record sales.

Gay rights activists held a “kiss-in” that was less successful. The mayors of San Francisco, Chicago and Boston pronounced Chick-fil-A unwelcome in their towns.

Conservative pundits noted, correctly, that an elected official who seeks to punish an unpopular opinion tramples the First Amendment. The Jim Henson Co. withdrew the Muppets from promotional deals with the restaurant chain.

Leonard Pitts Jr.

lpitts@miamiherald.com

Still, things being as they are, one finds it difficult to worry overmuch about a bunch of people who think buying chicken sandwiches can forestall what seems increasingly inevitable.”

And, oh yeah, some idiot carrying a bag filled with Chick-fil-A sandwiches walked into the Washington offices of the conservative Family Research Council where he shot and wounded a guard. “I don’t like your politics,” he reportedly said.

That’s a lot of furor over one man’s opinion. And you have to wonder why Dan Cathy’s views were news.

Chick-fil-A’s conservative Christian orientation has been known for years — it supports groups like the FRC and even closes on Sundays.

So Cathy’s comments, objectionable as they are to supporters of marriage equality, did not really tell us anything new.

Which brings us to pigskin.

It seems one Emmett C. Burns Jr., a Maryland state lawmaker, recently wrote Steve Bisciotti, owner of the NFL’s Baltimore Ravens, insisting that he “inhibit” one of his players, Brendon Ayanbadejo, who has been working in support of gay marriage. The Ravens refused, and Burns’ letter brought him a ton of condemnation, most notably from another player, Chris Kluwe of the Minnesota Vikings, who penned a profane, yet cogent reply online.

For what it’s worth, if the Ravens wanted to punish Ayanbadejo, they theoretically could. Sports leagues have broad latitude to police behavior deemed “detrimental” to the game. John Rocker was banished from baseball for 14 days in 2000 for remarks offensive to gay people, foreigners and minorities. Kobe Bryant was fined $100,000 in 2011 for using an anti-gay slur.

But the NFL has taken no such action here. To the contrary, Ayanbadejo says he has been overwhelmed by support from his teammates and other players.

Think about that: the NFL

is a temple of testosterone, a shrine to manly men doing manly things and as such, you would expect it to be ground zero of heebie jeebies over all things gay. Apparently, it is not.

Apologies to Sam Cooke, then, but a change has come.

What else can you conclude when even young conservatives like Meghan McCain now disavow conservatism’s opposition to marriage equality? Or when you consider that in 1995, just 27 percent of us supported it and now half of us do?

This is not to say the battle is won. It is not.

Still, things being as they are, one finds it difficult to worry overmuch about a bunch of people who think buying chicken sandwiches can forestall what seems increasingly inevitable. Every revolution has its deadenders who bring up the rear, fighting for the lost cause.

But the trajectory of this particular revolution seems clear. So the headline here is not the old news that Dan Cathy opposes this human right, but the pleasant surprise that Brendon Ayanbadejo does not.

PUBLIC FORUM

The truth?

To the editor: “Logic is sorely needed,” Jana Rea wrote (Public Forum, Sept. 4), and especially, I must add, in this climate of half-truths. Thus she tells us, without qualification, that Lynn Jenkins is “telling the truth” when she said, “Right now we have people who are happy to collect unemployment and not work. We have a problem with people working the system.” Of course logic tells us that this statement might be true in all cases or just in some (1 percent? 14.7 percent? Who knows?). To declare, as Ms. Rea does, that ”Jenkins’ comment on the face is true” is at least misleading, if not one of the “gross misrepresentations” she deplores.

Notes on judges, terrorists As I do on occasion, I want to cover a couple of subjects briefly in today’s column. An appropriate headline for it might be “Dispatches from the Legal Front.” (Readers should know that I don’t write the headlines for this column. The first time I see them is when they appear online or in print.)

The first bit of interesting information I think some of you might want to know about is a battle going on now in print and on the Internet between Supreme Court Justice Scalia and Judge Richard Posner, a judge on the 7th Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals. Judge Posner, who is based in Chicago, began the battle with a review in a recent issue of the New Republic of Justice Scalia’s new book (written with Bryan Garner, a noted legal scholar and lexicographer), “Reading Law: The Interpretation of Legal Texts.”

The title of the review pretty much makes Judge Posner’s views of Justice Scalia’s writings clear: “The Incoherence of Justice Scalia.” That title may well be the nicest thing Judge Posner has to say about Justice Scalia. Professor Brian Leiter of the University of Chicago characterized the review as “scathing.” The following quote from Judge Posner is an example of just how scathing the review is: “Omitting contrary evidence turns out to be Scalia and Garner’s favorite rhetorical device.”

The battle between the two judges is now going on in blogs and, no doubt, we will soon see a reply from Scalia and Garner in print.

What is so fascinating about

Empathy plea

Mike Hoeflich

“

Perhaps, this is a sign of just how far Justice Scalia has moved from the mainstream of American legal thought.”

the battle is that these two judges now seem to be at war. Posner and Scalia were longtime colleagues at the University of Chicago Law School. Posner is certainly not a liberal. He is one of the founding fathers of the “law and economics movement,” which has been embraced by political and legal conservatives around the world.

While Posner now calls himself a “pragmatist” rather than a conservative, his conservative credentials are impeccable. But most interesting, perhaps, is the fact that a federal Circuit Court Judge has decided to be so openly critical of a Supreme Court justice. This is, if not unprecedented, highly unusual.

Perhaps, this is a sign of just how far Justice Scalia has moved from the mainstream of American legal thought.

Whatever the causes, however, the dispatches in this battle between these two major legal luminaries are certainly fun to read.

KANSAS FOOTBALL Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

Frogs’ first test: Forget KU woes First-year Kansas University football coach Charlie Weis thinks highly of the job Gary Patterson has done at TCU. Only a dumb guy would think otherwise.

Weis stopped short of saying of Patterson what Bum Phillips once said of his former Texas A&M boss Bear Bryant: “He can take his’n and beat your’n and take your’n and beat his’n.”

But he did praise Patterson’s work, pointing out his team has led the nation in defense five times in 13 seasons.

Weis no doubt would take his chances with Patterson’s players this Saturday if that meant the TCU coach had to take Weis’. The Horned Frogs are bigger, faster, more experienced at winning.

Weis did point out that Patterson has the difficult challenge of getting his players to believe that winning will require more than simply taking the field with 11 players on offense, 11 on defense, 11 on special-teams plays.

Ah, but this is the Big 12 debut for TCU, which repeatedly had been shunned by the conference. Rich motivational material, right?

“Let’s be practical,” Weis said. “OK, let’s just sit here and reflect for a second. So we just lost at home to Rice, right? I got that right, right?

Blew the game at home, up by two scores.”

Correct on all fronts. Or, as Tim Fitzgerald of gopowercat.com said, “Kansas choked on Rice.”

“So the (TCU) coaches are going to come and say, ‘Hey, this team is much better than that.’ And the players are going to watch the tape,” Weis said.

And what they’ll see is Dayne Crist, protected well, holding the ball waiting for a receiver to break free. On those instances one did, he tended to throw over or behind the target. They also will see bad snaps to a field-goal kicker who can’t seem to put it through the uprights.

And from the Week 1 tape, TCU defensive backs will see Crist throwing a pass into the flat that every one of them would have returned for six points, even though South Dakota State didn’t intercept it.

“So no matter how many times those coaches sit there and tell them how good Kansas is, the bottom line is we got by South Dakota State and we just lost to Rice,” Weis said.

When TCU looks at its own tape it will see what Weis saw.

“I just watched them play 49 snaps of defense, played the same front and coverage 46 times, and gave up about two yards (70) in the game,” Weis said. “I saw the quarterbacks throw the ball 17 times and they completed 17 passes. That’s what I’m looking at.”

In previous jobs, during the good seasons, Weis had been the one trying to trigger adrenaline in superior players. He said coaches even went as far as laying mouse traps around the locker room to remind players they were facing a trap game. He can keep those traps in storage this year.

Kansas figures to play the underdog role in each of the remaining 10 games.

Fun and games

KANSAS UNIVERSITY QUARTERBACK DAYNE CRIST (10) CELEBRATES A SECOND-QUARTER JAYHAWK TOUCHDOWN with defensive end Toben Opurum (35) on the sideline against Rice, Saturday at Memorial Stadium.

After playing tight, Crist aims to trust team, have fun

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

It’s no secret that Kansas University quarterback Dayne Crist’s start as a Jayhawk has been a little less spectacular than most people expected.

Now we know why.

Tuesday afternoon, while speaking to reporters during back-to-back weekly news conferences, Crist and KU coach Charlie Weis shared the details of a Monday evening chat that seemed to go a long way toward clearing Crist’s head.

“He and I had a great conversation,” Crist said. “And I think we both came out of that very positive and having a better understanding of what’s going on around the offense. I really felt a lot better after that conversation.”

While the specifics of the talk were communicated in more general terms, each example centered on an element of Crist’s demeanor that had been with him most of his life but not yet joined him in Lawrence.

“It was clear, in watching myself on film, that I just

“

It was clear, in watching myself on film, that I just wasn’t having fun out there. And that’s why I play the game. I plan on having a lot more fun from here on out.”

— Kansas University quarterback Dayne Crist wasn’t having fun out there,” Crist said. “And that’s why I play the game. I plan on having a lot more fun from here on out.”

There are nearly a dozen reasons that football stopped being as much of a joy for Crist during the past few weeks, with pressure to perform, a desire to please the man who gave him another chance and the longing to lead the Jayhawks to better days chief among them.

“I don’t really listen to the outside stuff,” Crist admitted.

“The pressure I was feeling was stuff I put on myself. I’ve always been internally motivated and I know what I need to do. But sometimes I think I’m

a little too hard on myself and I’ve just gotta go out and let it loose and I plan on doing that.”

Add to that the burden of knowing in the back of his mind that a good senior season at Kansas could earn Crist a shot at his ultimate goal of becoming an NFL quarterback, and it’s easy to see how all of the factors sucked the fun out of the game for the 6-foot-4, 235-pound quarterback from southern California. Knowing that, and realizing he needed to act before KU’s schedule thinned out, Weis stepped in and had one of those vintage, straight-to-the-point Charlie Weis chats with his QB. “Just do your job,” recalled Weis, when asked Tuesday what he told Crist the previous night. “What do we know now about our team that we didn’t know two weeks ago? Let’s start there. We’ve got a couple of good runners and we can run the ball pretty efficiently.

So, if you’re a quarterback then, you don’t have to bear all the weight on your shoulders.”

It was not just Weis who believed that was happening.

“Yeah. I was fighting it and denying it at first,” said Crist,

who has completed 52 percent of his passes for 313 yards, two touchdowns and three interceptions in two games.

“But that’s 100 percent what I was doing. We’ve got a ton of athletes around (me) and I’ve said it publicly before.

With the way that our running backs have gone out and run the ball, it’s really just about going out and running the offense and having fun.”

While Crist sat at the front of the room and talked about his new outlook, the air around him indicated it was working. His answers to questions seemed more genuine and less scripted, he smiled more frequently and let reporters a littler deeper into his head.

“With how tight I looked playing, that’s not me at all,” he said. “Missing throws that I don’t miss. I’ve identified the issues that I think I needed to identify. ... I talked to a lot of other guys on offense, and we kind of felt the same way; we were playing too tight. We need to loosen up and have some fun.”

Veritas volleyball regroups, holds off rival Seabury

SEABURY ACADEMY SENIOR SARAH MCDERMOTT RETURNS A VOLLEY against Heritage Christian Academy on Tuesday at Seabury’s home volleyball triangular. Seabury and McDermott, who is playing her first year for the Seahawks after transferring from Veritas, lost to the Eagles in their second match of the tri.

For the first two matches of Bishop Seabury Academy’s home volleyball triangular on Tuesday, quiet applause ruled the bleachers.

Supporters of both Seabury and Veritas Christian seemed happy enough to see their favorite team win, but when each program defeated Heritage Christian Academy, no one deemed the feats worthy of jumping or screaming.

The fans and even the players saved that fervor for the third match showdown between Veritas and Seabury, the city’s two rival private schools. And although the presence of former Veritas standout Sarah McDermott on Seabury’s roster added to the intrigue, the visiting Eagles united after a first-set loss and

earned a 17-25, 25-23, 25-22 victory.

With the third and deciding set tied at 17, Veritas (72) surged ahead with five straight points that included a pair of kills by sophomore Lacey Billings and another from senior Kristen Finger — just enough of a cushion to hold off Seabury and nab a win.

After seeing the breaks fall the Seahawks’ way in the first set, Eagles coach Mike Bartlow couldn’t have been more proud of how his players recovered.

“That’s a character builder when you lose that first one,” the coach said.

Veritas junior Teri Huslig, who had 10 kills, six assists and three aces in the win, said the initial setback allowed her team to huddle up Please see VOLLEYBALL, page 3B

Sports seeing too many head injuries

Techâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Gillispie to be treated at Mayo Clinic

By Bill Dwyre Los Angeles Times

Heads have been in the sports news recently, and not happily.

Oakland Athletics pitcher Brandon McCarthy took a line drive off the bat of the Angelsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Erick Aybar last week and had surgery to reduce swelling around a skull fracture. Those are always scary words when it comes to a head, anybodyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s head: surgery to reduce swelling.

Thoughts quickly raced to that day in 1957, when star left-hander Herb Score of the Cleveland Indians took a line drive in the right eye off the bat of Gil McDougald of the New York Yankees. Bones were fractured and Scoreâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s vision was compromised enough that his pitching career was never the same.

Score died in 2008, at 75, after spending 34 years as the celebrated broadcast voice of the Indians. His newspaper friends were known to tease him that he had suffered just enough brain damage to qualify him for broadcast work.

There was no joking in the aftermath of the injury to McCarthy. The Angelsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Torii Hunter, a friend of McCarthy, said that the moment it happened, the wind went out of the sails of both teams. Aybar stood in silence at first base for a long time as McCarthy was being administered to, even though he had been called out on the play when an infielder scooped up the ball and threw to first base.

As McCarthy recovers, it is hard not to ponder some heady stuff on the NFL front.

Many newspapers, including The Los Angeles Times, put a story on their front page about a new study saying that NFL players with five seasons or more of competition are four times more likely to die of Alzheimerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s disease or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, better known as Lou Gehrig disease.

Head trauma, footballâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s dirty little secret forever, is being analyzed from all angles. It always made sense that people who got hit in the head a lot may pay the price for that later. A Tulane player is paying dearly right now. Devon Walker may be left paralyzed after a headto-head hit while making a tackle Saturday.

It has taken the high-profile suicides of two former NFL stars, Dave Duerson and Junior Seau, to really slap people in the face. Medical studies published in journals and doctorsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; warnings have nowhere near the impact of two famous athletes putting guns to their chest and pulling the trigger, with the knowledge that that will allow study of their still-intact brains.

The NFL is cornered on this issue. A huge group of former players, more than 3,000, is suing on the grounds that the NFL gave no warnings when it should have known, has known and continues to know that serious neurological problems could result from playing the game.

There is no question that the later life of many NFL players has been badly compromised by head injuries suffered during their playing days. All you have to do is attend one of the several current gatherings of retired NFL players and observe men you remembered as young, strong and healthy, struggling to get out of chairs or finish sentences.

LUBBOCK, TEXAS â&#x20AC;&#x201D; An ambulance was sent to the home of Texas Tech coach Billy Gillispie for the second time in 10 days while he remains on leave as the school investigates his leadership of the program.

Lubbock Police Sgt. Jeff Baker said Tuesday that the emergency call came from Gillispieâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s home around 6 p.m. Monday and that an ambulance was sent.

A spokesman for University Medical Center, where Gillispie earlier spent six days this month, said Gillispie did not come there. A spokeswoman for the other hospital in Lubbock said Gillispie was not brought there.

Gillispie, in a text message to The Associated Press late Tuesday, said he would be treated for high blood pressure â&#x20AC;&#x153;amongst other things,â&#x20AC;? at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn.

Texas Tech spokesman Blayne Beal said Gillispie told athletic director Kirby Hocutt he was going to the Minnesota medical facility for treatment.

Gillispie is on indefinite sick leave, and Hocutt said he is no longer making day-to-day decisions for the basketball program so he can focus on his health. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Nor is he to engage with our program in any way until he and I have a chance to sit down and talk face to face,â&#x20AC;? Hocutt said.

On Aug. 31, Gillispie called 911 and was taken to the medical center. It was the same day he was supposed to meet with Hocutt to discuss allegations he had mistreated his players. The school has reported excessive practice-time violations to the NCAA and reprimanded Gillispie in January.

Gillispie told the Lubbock Avalanche-Journal on Aug. 31 that he felt like he was having a heart attack or a stroke when he called 911. Doctors told Gillispie his blood pressure was dangerously high, the paper reported.

The school penalized itself for the practice overage, docking twice the number of hours that Gillispie had exceeded during a two-week period in October or 12 hours and 20 minutes. An unidentified assistant coach was also reprimanded.

The NCAA allows 20 hours of practice per week.

KANSAS BASKETBALL NOTEBOOK

Prep guard Barber puts Jayhawks in top 3

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Just three schools — Kansas University, Alabama and North Carolina State — remain contenders for prize point guard prospect Anthony “Cat” Barber.

Barber, a 6-foot2 senior f r o m H a m p ton (Va.) Barber High, who visited KU two weeks ago, has apparently been dropped as a recruit by Louisville following last weekend’s campus visit. It has been speculated that Louisville has decided to focus on former Tennessee commit

Chris Jones, a 5-11 sophomore from Northwest Florida State College.

“I don’t know what happened,” Barber’s AAU coach, Boo Williams, told zagsblog.com of the elimination of Louisville.

Rivals.com reports that KU coach Bill Self traveled to Jones’ hometown of Memphis to meet with Jones’ mother on Tuesday morning.

Jones is slated to visit Louisville this weekend, Florida State the following weekend and KU for Late Night in the Phog on Oct. 12. He’s already visited Baylor and Oklahoma State.

Self was in Barber’s home in Virginia on Tuesday night. Barber, ranked No. 9 nationally, is slated to visit N.C. State this weekend.

“I could feel the adrenaline in all of us,” she said.

Huslig, Billings, Finger and Abi Bartlow all scored key points for Veritas in the final two sets.

Seabury coach Chrissy Leuty said Veritas began hitting the ball much better after the Seahawks (52) won the first set, and Huslig did an incredible job of serving.

“Our passes were OK, but they weren’t perfect,” Leuty said, noting the Seahawks must improve their setting at the net.

Aces played an important role in the first set for Seabury, with freshman Taylor Hodge serving up three and senior Alexa Gaumer adding four toward the end, but the Seahawks struggled to put together enough digs and passes for high-percentage chances in the following two sets.

In that stretch, McDer-

So that’s what Crist did.

He began at Tuesday’s practice, where coaches and teammates said they saw a more energetic attitude from their quarterback.

“Yeah, I did,” quarterbacks coach Ron Powlus said. “I think he had a good time at practice today. He had a fine practice, and it looked like he had a little more fun playing today.”

While Powlus, who works closely with Crist every day, recognized a more upbeat Crist on Tuesday, he said the quarterback’s transformation was more subtle than anything.

“Dayne’s not changed what he’s doing, he’s not a different guy, it’s none of that,” Powlus said. “We want to have more production. That’s what it comes down to.”

Injury update During his weekly news conference Tuesday, Weis confirmed that junior linebacker Prinz Kande would miss the rest of the season because of a torn anterior cruciate ligament. The loss puts a dent in KU’s depth at linebacker.

“He was playing pretty well,” Weis said. “And he was playing two positions.

I feel bad for him more than I feel bad for me.”

In addition, Weis said running back Brandon Bourbon, wide receiver Kale Pick and safety Lubbock Smith all were “dayto-day” with injuries that could keep them out of Saturday’s 11 a.m. game against TCU. “If we were playing today, I don’t know if any of

— Seabury Academy senior Sarah McDermott mott, who attended Veritas her freshman through junior years and transferred to Seabury after the 2011 volleyball season, manufactured some assists for senior Courtney Hoag and registered some kills of her own.

Huslig said it was odd to see the former Eagle in a Seahawks uniform on the other side of the net.

“I’ve missed Sarah a lot.

She and I are really close.

But she played great for them,” Huslig said. “She fought hard. It was definitely a challenge having to play against her, because she’s a great player.”

Though admittedly frazzled by the loss, McDermott said she still has strong attachments to the Veritas program.

the three of them would play,” Weis said. “But all three of them are trying to play this Saturday so we’ll see how it goes.

Structurally, they’re OK. But there’s swelling and pain and things like that that we have to deal with.

I don’t see any of those being long-standing injuries.

It’s just how quickly they recover.”

McDonald ready to roll One bit of good news on the injury front came with the return of senior linebacker Anthony McDonald, who landed on this week’s depth chart for the first time this season as a second-string outside linebacker.

Weis said previously that he was not comfortable putting the hardhitting 6-2, 235-pounder in a game until he was confident he could “let it loose.” When asked about the Notre Dame transfer’s upgraded status, Weis said simply, “He’s ready to play.”

He later added: “We’re gonna play a team this week that might just line up and try to pound us.

So you can’t play with a bunch of 5-8, 190-pound linebackers. You better be ready to have some girth.”

Weis: TCU belongs After becoming somewhat of a non-BCS national power during the past decade, many are watching with interest to see if TCU successfully can translate that success into the Big 12.

In studying film for this weekend’s match-up, Weis has seen all he needs.

“They’re definitely an upper-level team in this conference,” Weis said of Gary Patterson’s Horned Frogs. “I’ve looked at the tape of all these teams

Talk has died down a bit of Barber wanting to attend the same school as his Boo Williams AAU teammate, Troy Williams, 6-6 from Oak Hill Academy in Mouth of Wilson, Va. Troy Williams is reportedly considering Alabama, Ohio State, Indiana, North Carolina, South Carolina and LSU. He has an in-home with Alabama coach Anthony Grant on Friday, Zagsblog.com reports.

KU apparently is no longer on his list.

“Right now, it looks like we’ll sign late because we just can’t make enough school visits,” Boo Williams, Troy’s uncle and AAU coach, told Zagsblog. “How the schedule works out, we can’t make (enough) school visits.

We’ll probably only make

“Obviously, you want to beat the team that you came from even though you love them,” she said.

“It’s intense because I felt like I had something to prove.”

Leuty hadn’t seen her team more fired up this season, and credited McDermott for making that possible with her zeal.

“It was good to see how emotional (the Seabury players) were after the game, how upset they were,” Leuty said. “We had freshmen crying after we lost. It’s great to see that they want it that much.”

Seabury disposed of Heritage, 25-16, 25-20, to open the tri. The Seahawks broke a 10-all tie in the second set by scoring eight straight points.

Hodge served up six aces, including four in a row, to ignite the run.

Veritas also swept Heritage, with victories of 25-19 and 25-16.

Like their in-town rivals, the Eagles also benefitted from a string of four straight service points in their second set. Huslig burned Heritage for four aces in a row.

in this conference. This team can hang with all the big boys. They’re well coached. This guy’s a good head coach and he’s a good defensive coach on top of it.”

Throughout the early portion of the week, Weis has emphasized how impressed he has been with TCU’s transformation from a defensive juggernaut to a more balanced team.

“They used to win games on defense, and now they can win games in multiple ways, which they’re gonna need to against a bunch of good football teams in this conference on a weekly basis.”

Stadium renovations?

Williams Education Fund members recently were given an 81-question survey designed to explore what they would like and would not like to see regarding potential renovations to KU’s Memorial Stadium.

KU officials said the survey was merely the next step in the process of gauging what’s needed and was designed to determine the overall appetite for stadium renovations.

According to the survey, “Memorial Stadium improvements could include new and improved concession and restroom facilities, improved crowd circulation, and new and improved premium seating and hospitality areas.”

The survey, which is being conducted by CSL International, also indicated that donor input was “very important” and, to back that up, KU offered two free tickets to a 2012 KU football game of the participant’s choice simply for completing the survey.

one or two at the most (first semester).”

O Gordon update: No. 5-ranked Aaron Gordon, a 6-8 forward from Archbishop Mitty High in San Jose, Calif., tells PointGuardU.com that Arizona, Oregon and Washington are his current leaders. He’s to visit KU for Late Night and also is considering Kentucky, Cal and Stanford. His KU in-home visit is slated for Sept. 25.

O Embiid’s offers: Unranked Joel Embiid, 7-foot, 220 pounds from Cameroon who now attends The Rock School in Gainesville, Fla., tells the Louisville Courier-Journal he has offers from Louisville, KU, Florida, Marquette, Kansas State, Texas, De-

Paul, Southern Methodist, George Washington, Vanderbilt and Virginia.

O Lee cuts KU: No. 15-ranked Marcus Lee, a 6-9 senior forward from Deer Valley High in Antioch, Calif, has eliminated KU from his list of schools, leftcoastrecruiting.com reports. He has a final three of Cal, Kentucky and Louisville.

O Young has KU on final list: No. 8-ranked James Young, a 6-6 senior shooting guard from Rochester (Mich.) High, has a final five of KU, Arizona, Kentucky, Michigan State and Syracuse, the Louisville Courier-Journal reports.

“The thing that excited us about Arizona and Syracuse is the style of play consistent with the coach-

es, as well as Kansas. All of those schools have gotten James excited,” said Young’s godfather, Sean Malone. He’d long been considered a heavy Kentucky lean.

O Billy’s replacement: ESPN has listed some coaches who might replace Texas Tech’s Billy Gillispie, if he is fired in coming days.

Possible candidates are current Tech assistants Bubba Jennings, Jeremy Cox and Chris Walker, as well as former Tech assistant Chris Beard, head coach at McMurry University in Abilene, Texas.

So far there’s been no mention of KU director of basketball operations Doc Sadler, who was an assistant at Texas Tech from 1991 to ‘94.

ALL TIED UP? Breaking down the Big 12’s football tiebreaker procedure for its BCS representative, updated in 2011 with the move to a 10-team conference without divisions: Two teams: If two teams are tied, the winner of the game between the two tied teams shall be the representative.

Three or more: If three or more teams are tied, steps 1 through 4 will be followed until a determination is made. Once a team has been eliminated from a multi-team comparison, it is dropped from further comparisons. If only two teams remain tied after any step, the winner of the game between the two tied teams shall be the representative.

1. The records in games among the three teams will be compared.

2. The records of the three teams will be compared against the next highestplaced teams in the conference.

3. The highest-ranked team in the first BCS poll following the completion of regular-season conference play shall be the representative, unless the two highest-ranked tied teams are ranked within one spot of the other in the BCS poll. In this case, the head-tohead result of those two teams will determine the representative in the Bowl Championship Series.

4. The representative will be chosen by draw.

NEW ORLEANS (AP) — Devon Walker’s Tulane teammates believe he’ll continue to be an inspiration to them in the way he deals with a devastating spinal injury because that’s the kind of person he is — driven and relentless.

Walker played his first two years without a scholarship while pursuing a degree in cell and molecular biology.

He played part of last season with a cast on a broken left arm. And Walker friends say he’ll attack this challenge with the same tenacity.

“Without a doubt I know Devon is going to continue to fight on because he’s a competitor,” said Tulane senior cornerback Ryan Travis, who shares an apartment with Walker and has been his friend since they were freshmen. “He has a lot of courage and will power to overcome adversity.”

The Green Wave returned to practice on Tuesday for the first time since Walker, a senior safety, fractured his spine while making a tackle at the end of the first half of a game at Tulsa on Saturday.

Walker remains hospitalized in Tulsa, where he had surgery on Sunday.

Doctors say it is too early to know what the longterm effects of his injury will be, though paralysis is always a concern with spinal injuries.

His teammates say Walker has been in their thoughts constantly.

Travis recalled getting to the visitor’s locker room moments after seeing Walker being treated on the field, dropping down to his knees and praying. He’s been praying ever since.

“I asked God why this happened. I know if it was allowed to happen, there was a reason,” Travis said.

“I was asking God to protect him and watch over him.

“On the plane going to Tulsa, he had sat right across from me,” Travis continued. “And on the plane ride back, it was kind of tough looking over, seeing him not there, knowing what happened, knowing he’s my roommate.”

Tulane players are in the process of recording get-well messages for a

video that will be delivered to Walker soon. In the atrium of Tulane’s Wilson Athletic Center, a table is filled with cardmaking materials of wideranging colors and designs, along with scissors and markers, which members of the Tulane community have been using to fashion get-well messages being collected by the athletic department.

The university’s official athletic website, tulanegreenwave.com, now includes a link to web page dedicated to helping Walker and his family.

The injury has been upsetting to those who know Walker on many levels, not the least of which is because to them, he embodied the type of person who deserved to have only the best things happen to him.

Teammates were thrilled when he finally received a scholarship — worth about $58,000 a year at Tulane — for his junior season.

At Tulane, Walker played mostly on special teams as a true freshman and quickly became a regular in the defensive backfield by his sophomore season.

Teammates described his style as full-speed in everything he did, such as when he wound up with a concussion and broken right cheek bone after colliding hard with a tight end during voluntary workouts two summers ago.

He bounced back from that only to break his left arm — also against Tulsa — on kick coverage early last season and had to play with a cast afterward.

He returned for his senior season as a starter, feeling fully healthy and hoping to close out his college football career with his best season yet before graduating in May and heading to pharmacy school.

Now Walker’s teammates and coaches are heartbroken for him, but determined to carry on in his honor.

“The best thing to do is just keep moving,” firstyear coach Curtis Johnson said after practice. “He would want us to keep moving, to keep him in our prayers, but he would want us to play hard and win the next game.”

The next game is not until Sept. 22 in the Superdome against Mississippi.

Players said the bye week “came at a good time” as they try to grapple with their popular teammate’s misfortune.

Big Ten to critics: We’re not dead yet “

UCLA DEFENSIVE END DATONE JONES SACKS Nebraska quarterback Taylor Martinez for a safety during the second half, Saturday in Pasadena, Calif.

UCLA won 36-30, sending the Big Ten to 6-6 in the first two weeks of the season.

Big Ten coaches had just one request for the critics ripping the conference after a rough weekend.

Wait.

Nebraska coach Bo Pelini cautioned against making “snap judgments” so early in the season during Tuesday’s conference call, no matter how rough things looked.

“I don’t make much of it,” he said. “It’s early in the year. I think there’s a lot of football left to be played.”

A 6-6 showing that left the Big Ten with just three ranked teams was bad enough. But last week’s split decision included a 1-6 mark against opponents from major conferences and Notre Dame, plus Michigan’s narrow win over Air Force.

So is the conference headed toward a dull season? At the moment, No. 10 Michigan State appears to be the only team with a realistic shot at the national championship, and

People will respond. That’s the nature of football, the competitive nature of things.

People are going to respond, and they’re going ... to reset their compass and re-evaluate and move forward. ” — Michigan State coach Mark Dantonio the Spartans are facing a tough matchup this week at home against No. 20 Notre Dame.

A year ago, the Spartans’ 31-13 loss in South Bend cast doubt on their season, but they rebounded to finish with 11 wins and the 11th spot in the final AP poll. That’s something coach Mark Dantonio was quick to point out.

“I think we played two games,” he said. “We’re very, very early in the season. I think last year, as I remember, the third game we didn’t play well at Notre Dame and people sort of wrote us off. I think we ended up No. 9 or something like that in the nation. People will respond. That’s the nature of football, the competitive nature of things. People

are going to respond, and they’re going ... to reset their compass and re-evaluate and move forward.

It’s very, very competitive in the country right now in terms of winning and losing football games.”

Michigan State was one of the bright spots for the Big Ten, pounding Central Michigan as expected, but No. 17 Michigan struggled to get past Air Force despite Denard Robinson’s 426 yards of offense.

Against BCS opponents? The results weren’t good.

Northwestern beat Vanderbilt, but that was it for the Big Ten. Nebraska’s defense gave up 653 yards in a 36-30 loss to UCLA that dropped the Cornhuskers out of the Top 25. Pur-

due lost by three to Notre Dame on a late field goal, and Boilermakers quarterback Robert Marve injured his left knee.

Illinois got shredded by Arizona State. Iowa managed just two field goals in a 9-6 loss to Iowa State and has just one touchdown after two games.

Wisconsin’s offense managed just 35 yards rushing and 207 overall in a 10-7 loss at Oregon State.

Star running back Montee Ball had just 61 yards on the ground, and offensive line coach Mike Markuson was let go.

The Badgers still seem to have a clear path to the Big Ten title game in the Leaders division.

After all, No. 12 Ohio State and Penn State are banned from playing in the Big Ten title game or a bowl as part of NCAA sanctions. Indiana’s two wins are over weak competition (Indiana State and Massachusetts), and Illinois and Purdue have done nothing to indicate they’re about to make a jump.

KANSAS CITY’S ALEX GORDON, RIGHT, BEATS THE TAG by Minnesota third baseman Eduardo Escobar for a triple during Tuesday night’s game in Minneapolis. The Royals defeated the Twins, 9-1.

Smith, Hosmer lead K.C. to 9-1 victory at Minnesota MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Will Smith is probably auditioning for a spot in Kansas City’s rotation next season.

Having Salvador Perez as his catcher sure helps his cause.

Smith pitched seven shutout innings, Eric Hosmer homered and the Royals beat the Minnesota Twins, 9-1, on Tuesday night.

Lorenzo Cain had two RBIs and was a home run away from the cycle as Kansas City beat Minnesota for just the sixth time in 16 games.

Perez extended his hitting streak to a career-best 15 games and threw out two runners trying to steal in support of Smith (5-7), who struck out a careerhigh seven and gave up seven hits in his first win in four starts.

“That guy’s awesome,” Smith said about Perez.

“He’s so good. You love having him back there.

You feel confident that the running game, he’s just going to completely shut it down.”

Ryan Doumit had the Twins’ RBI and Ben Revere had three hits.

Joe Mauer was in the initial starting lineup, but was scratched after experiencing back spasms before batting practice.

The atmosphere at Target Field brought back memories of the Metrodome, and not only because of all the empty seats for a September

game featuring two teams out of contention.

With two outs and two runners on in the second inning, Cain hit a towering fly to left field. Josh Willingham lost it in the sky, holding out his hands as the ball fell 15 feet behind him and both runners scored.

Outfielders losing flyballs was a common occurrence under the white Teflon roof of the Metrodome, but hasn’t been a problem under the lights at Target Field.

“It was just the time of day. It’s frustrating when you can’t see the ball,” Willingham said.

The miscue didn’t help Scott Diamond (11-7) get

back on track. The lefthander allowed four runs and 10 hits over six innings and has just one victory in his last six starts.

The first two Twins batters reached in the first, fourth and fifth innings, but they couldn’t break through against Smith.

Perez threw out basestealers to help erase the threats in the first and fifth, and Smith got Ryan Doumit to ground into a double play and struck out Trevor Plouffe to end the fourth.

The Twins had 16 stolen bases in their last 11 games, but were no match for Perez’s strong arm and quick release. Jamey Carroll and Darin Mastroianni fell victim to Perez on Tuesday.

“It kept the momentum on our side,” manager Ned Yost said about Perez, who has caught 11 of the last 21 runners trying to steal on him.

Cain got hit in the head by reliever Luis Perdomo in the eighth.

The ball appeared to hit Cain in the back of his helmet as he ducked, but Cain sat up quickly and remained in the game after sitting in the batter’s box and getting checked out by trainers.

“The guys definitely let me know I was a home run away from the cycle,” Cain said. “I was looking for a pitch to drive and ended up getting hit in the head. I went down for a second, but I’ll be fine.”

Chiefs hoping Hali’s return will provide boost in Buffalo “

KANSAS CITY, MO. (AP) — The NFL is supposed to be a 16-game exercise in attrition.

Teams typically start off the opening week at full strength, and through the brutal grind of practice and games, guys pick up the inevitable bumps and bruises, and often injuries more serious than that. The teams that best cope with them are usually in the playoff hunt.

If the Kansas City Chiefs have any designs on returning to the postseason in fourth months’ time, they’ll have done so by taking a vastly different approach.

They’ll have started off without Pro Bowl linebacker Tamba Hali, who was suspended for a 4024 loss to the Falcons on Sunday. They’ll have been without safety Kendrick Lewis, cornerback Brandon Flowers and defensive tackle Anthony Toribio, all due to injuries.

Hali will be back for Sunday’s game at Buffalo.

The rest of them? Well, nobody seems to quite know for sure.

“Those guys will have to go out there and see what they can do,” Chiefs coach Romeo Crennel said Monday, adding that there were no new injuries coming out of the game.

On Tuesday, the Chiefs

Roger Hill

2012 Hall of Fame Class Jane Bateman

— Chiefs coach Romeo Crennel, on K.C.’s loss to Atlanta waived linebacker Cameron Sheffield to make roster space for Hali.

Sheffield played in 17 games and made one start during two seasons in Kansas City. The former fifth-round draft pick only made eight tackles with the club after spending his rookie season on injured reserve.

An examination of the missing pieces takes a lot of the guesswork out of how Atlanta’s Matt Ryan threw for nearly 300 yards and accounted for four touchdowns, and how wide receivers Julio Jones and Roddy White spent most of the afternoon at Arrowhead Stadium running in space.

While Toribio is a relative newcomer to the lineup, the other three each started 16 games last season, and combined for 184 tackles, a dozen sacks and seven interceptions. Hali went to the Pro Bowl for the first time, and Flowers was one of the biggest snubs.

“We knew we were lim-

do to help the team win,” Crennel said. “That’s what you do every week in the NFL, because you don’t have all your players healthy for every game.

You’re going to miss guys sometimes, and then your backups need to step up.”

Without them in the lineup, the high-powered Atlanta offense put together four scoring drives of at least 70 yards, piled up 376 yards of offense and punted just once. The Falcons converted only five third downs, but they faced just 10 of them.

“We couldn’t stop anybody on defense, and that’s a problem,” Crennel said. “We have to build on the positives and eliminate the negative things, and we have a short period of time to do that.”

Things weren’t nearly as bad on the injury front as they could have been.

Derrick Johnson had been dealing with a sore ankle that limited him in practice, but the Pro Bowl linebacker managed to lead the Chiefs in tackles.

The trio of running back Jamaal Charles, tight end Tony Moeaki and safety Eric Berry all played after missing nearly all of last season with torn ACLs.

NATIONAL LEAGUE ROUNDUP

Phillies stretch streak to six The Associated Press

Phillies 9, Marlins 7 PHILADELPHIA — Jimmy Rollins homered and drove in three runs, and Roy Halladay won again as Philadelphia outslugged Miami for its sixth straight win.

Despite allowing five runs in 6 1-3 innings, Halladay (10-7) improved to 4-0 in his last five starts.

The right-hander walked three and struck out six.

Juan Pierre and Chase Utley both had three hits for Philadelphia, which finished with 15 hits while winning its 14th in the last 18 games. The five-time defending NL East champion Phillies, who reached .500 for the first time since June 4, are making a late playoff push. They began the day five games behind St. Louis in the NL wildcard race.

Gator po’ boy

By Sara Shepherd sshepherd@ljworld.com

Beyond hints of flakiness like whitefish and silt-iness like catfish, it turns out alligator meat really does taste a lot like chicken.

On this sandwich, strips of breaded, fried gator (restaurant owner Greg Renck confirms it’s real alligator — tail meat to be specific) come layered with lettuce, tomato and onion and dripping with spicy sauce.

With only 14 indoor seats, this cozy restaurant sends a good amount of sandwiches out the door in paper bags — they are equally messy dining in or carrying out.

Where to get it: Terrebonne Po’ Boys and Desserts, 805 Vt. What you’ll pay: $8.50, plus tax Try it with: Slaw. And if the sandwich isn’t spicy enough for you, a dribble of something from Terrebonne’s ample hot sauce selection.

Also on the menu:

ABOUT THIS FEATURE Lawrence has a lot more to eat than plain cheeseburgers and pepperoni pizza. Off The Beaten Plate highlights some of the more exotic, oddly named or inventively concocted (for better or worse) dishes from local menus.

Send your suggestions to food and features writer Sara Shepherd.

Crawfish and other po’ boys, muffaletta sandwiches (on a full, half or quarter foccacia loaf), Creole gumbo, fried okra and deviled eggs — regular or wasabi. For dessert, there are shakes, malts and rich, gooey treats like Toffee Butter Cream Bars.

Only my elastic waistband will be happy about this.

For years, the all-youcan eat lunch buffet at Godfather’s Pizza in west Lawrence has put a great strain on that strip of elastic. But no more.

I chatted with a source in the commercial real estate industry familiar with the situation at Godfather’s, which was in the shopping center at the southwest corner of Sixth Street and Wakarusa Drive, just a few doors down from Johnny’s West. The store had been bought by a Gardner businessman in the last eight months or so. The new owner for whatever reason suddenly closed the business down earlier this month and notified the landlord — Lawrence businessman Greg DiVilbiss — that the restaurant wouldn’t be reopening.

At the moment, the landlord has possession of all the restaurant’s equipment, so I believe there is work going on to try to either convince Godfather’s to open a corporate store or to convince another pizza operator to open in the space.

One other thing I was reminded of when asking around about this is that the pizza market has changed significantly in that shopping center. Morningstar’s Pizza has opened just around the corner from the Godfather’s spot, serving New York-style pizza, which also is served at nearby Johnny’s.

The passing of Godfather’s is a sad day in the Lawrence pizza industry.

Godfather’s was a longtime presence in the city.

years, and I’m pretty certain they have been in town that long. Some of you may remember when they were in the Malls Shopping Center at 23rd and Louisiana streets, where Wheat State Pizza is now.

It also seems that this continues a trend of a decline in all-you-can-eat pizza buffets in Lawrence.

When Pizza Hut closed its downtown location, that

ended the all-you-can-eat buffet there. Unless something has changed very recently, Minsky’s — which took over the Pizza Hut spot — does not have a buffet.

I know Pyramid Pizza in downtown still offers an all-you-can-eat buffet, but I’m not certain how many others there are in town.

My elastic waistband is not entirely off the hook.

About the time Godfather’s closed, Eileen’s Colossal Cookies reopened at Sixth and Wakarusa.

The cookie shop at 4931 W. Sixth St. — kind of next to Famous Dave’s BBQ — had been closed for a little over a month.

But the Nebraska-based cookie chain has found a new owner for the location.

Finns open ‘pop-down’ restaurant in limestone mine

By Matti Huuhtanen Associated Press

LOHJA, FINLAND — An award-winning chef has opened a new restaurant in Finland that turns the idea of “pop-up” eateries upside down: it’s located 260 feet underground.

Discerning food lovers are being served salted salmon, veal tenderloin, snails cooked in Pernod and apple crumble in the “pop-down” restaurant in a limestone mine in the small, southern town of Lohja (LOU-ya), 40 miles west of Helsinki.

A four-course evening meal costs $160, including drinks and transportation from Helsinki to the mine and back.

In major cities around the world “pop-up” restaurants — temporary eateries often located in underused kitchens — are allowing young chefs with experience to experiment without risk of bankruptcy.

But Finnish chef Timo

Linnamaki said the idea of preparing food down a mine was all part of being close to the earth. “‘Pop-down’ is such a unique idea that I just had to do it,” Linnamaki said Monday, a few hours before the first guests arrived.

“It’s great working down here because you are totally cut off from the world, so nothing distracts from the cooking.”

Eerie blue lights cut deep shadows into the ceiling of the large, dim, underground cavern, a former smithy where drills were hammered to dig into the bowels of the Earth.

Olli-Pekka Jantti, a computer retailer from Helsinki, said his meal there was superb.

“The food was absolutely delicious,” Jantti said, after supping on starters of vendace — a small local fresh-water fish — snails and berries.

“What I liked was that the theme of the evening

was the earth, and being so deep down you really felt you were somewhere very different, very strange.”

The 115-year-old mine goes down to a depth of 1,250 feet where limestone is still mined, mainly for the chemical industry.

Linnamaki, whose restaurant Muru — “crumb” in Finnish — won this year’s gourmet title in Finland only two years after it opened, says the experience of working down in the gloomy depths has inspired him to search for new challenges.

“Certainly it’s the weirdest place I have cooked,” he said. “It could be difficult to find something on par.”

The 64-seat restaurant, with long, shiny wooden tables lit by candles, is expecting brisk business.

Linnamaki said it is fully booked until the experiment ends on Sept. 29.

“We’ll be underground Monday to Saturday. On Sundays, we pop up to sleep,” he said.

Candice Carpenter, the store’s manager, told me that in addition to selling normal-size cookies, the business hopes to tap into the birthday and party market.

That’s where the colossal cookies come in. The store sells 12-inch, 14-inch and 16-inch cookies.

“We feel like they are more convenient than a birthday cake because they’re very quick to decorate,” Carpenter said.

The business will operate with new hours of 8 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Monday through Friday and 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturdays.

yellow-green to wine red — pop against the brightwhite walls and growing trays.

There’s lettuce in all stages, from sequin-sized sprouts to lush, leafy, ready-to-harvest red bib and romaine.

An irrigation system carries fertilizer-laced water to each plant, delivering moisture and nutrients to roots while emerging leaves get sunlight through the greenhouse’s translucent covering.

Ryan tinkered with an old air conditioner to fashion a system that keeps the water solution from getting too hot. To keep the climate from getting too hot, fans draw air through a “wet wall” at one end of the greenhouse. In the winter, propane heat will keep it warm.

He monitors everything daily.

A climate-control slip, pH imbalance or bug infestation could wipe out an entire crop.

Everyone entering the greenhouse wipes their feet on a towel soaked with solution to ensure their shoes are clear of insects. There are screens over all the fans to keep bugs from sneaking in.

Ryan even wears rubber gloves when harvesting and transplanting the lettuce.

Pros and cons Hydroponic gardening started getting a lot of interest about 15 to 20 years ago, said Jennifer Smith, the horticulture extension agent for K-State Research and Extension in Douglas County.

“The general idea was that because you’re not using soil you can grow things in a smaller space,” she said, “and it was kind of an interesting discovery that we can grow things without soil.”

Smith said that while hydroponics may enable farmers to grow produce with less space, it can be labor-intensive to maintain the correct balances.

Also, she said, some people argue that food grown in dirt has more flavor.

Ryan said he believes that’s true with foods such as tomatoes (he pre-

However, he doesn’t think that’s the case with lettuce, which is a decidedly different type of crop.

“I’ll never grow another head of lettuce in the dirt,” he said.

Hydroponic growing enables him to leave roots on, which keeps the lettuce — a vegetable that’s notoriously prone to wilting — flavorful and crunchy longer with no preservatives.

Hydroponic lettuce can mature weeks faster than outdoors, and the controlled environment also enables Two Sisters to keep its crops pesticideand herbicide-free.

Plus, if Two Sisters is able to drum up enough customers, the Eddingers will be able to afford to run their greenhouse year-round, providing

Lawrence with lettuce grown just a few miles away all winter long.

“That’s one of the best things about local; it’s going to be fresh,” Ryan said.

“The more local the better.”

Growing customers Right now, Two Sisters’ living lettuce is for sale at four Lawrence grocery stores: both Hy-Vee locations, 4000 W. Sixth St. and 3504 Clinton Parkway; Checkers, 2300 La.; and the Merc., 901 Iowa.

Two Sisters also supplies lettuce to several Lawrence restaurants, plus Raintree Montessori School, 4601 Clinton Parkway, and a couple of restaurants in Johnson County — Renee Kelly’s Harvest in Shawnee and Story in Prairie Village.

Associated Press

Many people like the idea of cooking with whole grains — They are so healthful! — but refrain from actually plunging in because so many of them are unfamiliar.

What is the ratio of liquid to grain? Don’t you need to rinse them, soak them or toast them first?

How long do you cook them? Don’t they take forever to cook?

For too long, I shied away from whole grains, too, especially because nobody seemed to agree on the answers to these questions. Then I did something really smart. I read the back of the package. And, duh!

It’s all right there. After all, who knows better how to prepare these products than the company that did the harvesting?

Product by product, and brand by brand, the instructions on the packages set me free to start cooking with many new whole grains.

One of my first and most gratifying discoveries was that most of these grains are pretty durable.

You can boil up a huge batch during the weekend, then freeze them in 1-, 2or 3-cup containers. All you need to do is reheat them with a bit of liquid or steam them over simmering water. And they are versatile, too. You can use them in any recipe that calls for cooked rice.

Which brings me to this recipe. My family loves regular risotto made with arborio or carnaroli rice.

I was hopeful that I could

prepare the same kind of recipe using farro.

A kind of hulled wheat, farro was first cultivated in the ancient Near East some 10,000 years ago.

After a while, it started showing up in ancient Egypt and Israel. Today, it’s grown in Morocco, Spain, Albania, Turkey, Switzerland and Italy.

Recently, it’s been gaining popularity right here in America because it’s so nutritious.

Happily, farro also happens to be delicious. It has a full-bodied taste and a pleasant, slightly chewy texture. It’s less starchy than short grain rice, which means that this risotto is not as creamy as rice-based versions. But it still gets plenty creamy, especially with the addition of a little freshly-grated Parmesan.

I simmered the farro first to give it a jump start because it takes 50 to 60 minutes to get tender, and who wants to be stirring all that time? Traditionalists making the standard risotto contend that you’re supposed to add the liquid in numerous small increments, which can get pretty tedious.

But I was liberated several years ago by Andrew Carmellini, who adds liquid to his risotto fewer times in larger amounts.

I figured if it was all right for this celebrated Italian restaurant chef, I could get away with it, too.

I finish off my farro risotto with sauteed mushrooms, but you’re welcome to substitute any kind of cooked vegetable — carrots, peas, eggplant or chunks of butternut

squash. And adding a little cooked protein to it, such as shrimp, for example, or chicken, or Canadian bacon, easily turns this dish into an entree. It is the perfect base for repurposed leftovers, but your family also will love it straight up.

Mushroom farro “risotto” If you can only find parcooked farro (partially cooked), skip the initial step of the recipe (which calls for boiling the farro for 25 minutes). Instead, proceed to the next step.

When the recipe directs you to simmer the broth and reserved farro cooking liquid, instead bring 2 1/2 cups of broth to a simmer, then proceed with the recipe and add the parcooked farro when it calls for drained farro.

If you grate the cheese on a wand-style grater, you will get about 3/4 cup.

If you use the fine side of a box grater, you will get about half as much volume, or about 3/8 cup.

4 cans of good whole tomatoes (I like Muir Glen) 2 tablespoons olive oil 1 clove garlic, minced 1 tablespoon sugar 1/2 cups diced yellow onion 1 teaspoon sriracha 2 teaspoons spicy barbecue sauce (just trust me on this) 1 teaspoon salt 1/2 teaspoon pepper Heat the olive oil in a stock pot over medium heat. Add the garlic and saute. Be careful not to burn it.

Add the other ingredients, and simmer for 2 hours. Once it’s all simmered and soft, use a potato masher to pulverize the tomatoes into a chunky sauce. Pour it over your meatballs, turn on the crock pot and wait for it all to meld and get married. Ah-maz-ing.

Think the barbecue sauce seems weird? It just adds a bit of flavor depth.

You’d never taste this and say “BBQ.” Trust me.

I also whipped up a hot artichoke dip because who doesn’t like hot artichoke dip? And I just happened to make what I think is the best version of it, next to Free State Brewing Company’s, which I cannot seem to replicate.

Megan’s Hot Artichoke Dip 1 block cream cheese 2 cups mayonnaise 2 cans quartered artichoke hearts 1 cup shredded Parmesan cheese, divided 3/4 cup diced onion (I like the frozen ones for this application — they’re not only fast, but they’re not as pungent as fresh, so as not to overwhelm the dip) 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper 1/8 teaspoon garlic powder pinch of kosher salt Combine all of the ingredients, using only 3/4 cup of the Parmesan cheese. Stir well and transfer to a small casserole dish (9x9 is big enough). Sprinkle the rest of the Parmesan on top and bake for 20 minutes in a 350-degree oven.

Serve with baguette toasts or crackers. Superb AND easy!

All of this makes for simple food to prepare, but a very fancy party presentation. Also, the beauty of it all is this: you don’t have to buy the booze!

RYAN EDDINGER, OF LECOMPTON, GREETS HIS DAUGHTERS, Stella, 10, left, and Sophia, 8, after harvesting some lettuce at their Two Sisters Farm that’s grown with a hydroponic greenhouse system and produces several varieties of lettuce. Their products are used in several Lawrence restaurants and sold by area grocers.

LIVING LETTUCE Lecompton family growing hydroponic experiment

By Sara Shepherd sshepherd@ljworld.com

STARTS FOR A VARIETY OF LETTUCE and some mustard greens wait to be transplanted into the Two Sisters Farm hydroponic greenhouse system.

Just because a greenhouse shelters produce from the elements doesn’t mean hydroponic farming is easy.

That’s one of the first myths that Ryan Eddinger would love to dispel.

While you can control variables, the downside is that you must control them — and the balance is tenuous and labor intensive, more of a sterile science project than a backyard garden.

“We’re in control of everything,” Eddinger said. “With hydroponics, if you screw up, you find out real fast.

You don’t have any buffer.”

Eddinger and his wife, Caroline, operate Two Sisters Farm — named for their two daughters, 10-year-old Stella and 8-year-old Sophia — at their home in rural Lecompton.

The Eddingers specialize in “living lettuce,” full heads sold with roots attached. Theirs is the only commercial farm in the area specializing in hydroponics, or soilless growing, and their lettuce has been catching on in Lawrence and Johnson County since their first harvest this spring.

When researching farming options, the Eddingers were looking for something that would produce all four seasons.

“We looked around at what peo-

Wine and cheese? Yes, please THE FLYING FORK O n Saturday, I hosted a wedding shower. But this was not your mama’s wedding shower.

The bride is a little nontraditional, and she’s also been an independent woman for enough years that she’s got all the sheets and towels she needs. There was no need for a showering of home accoutrements.

So, instead of cake and punch, we had wine and cheese. The guests were all asked to bring a bottle of wine to share and a bottle to send home with the bride to stock their wine rack. But I think now she’s gonna need to add on a wine cellar.

She took home a nice haul of the grape.

I loved this party. It’s no secret that I love to plan a party, and I usually go a little stupid in the details.

a blog by Megan Stuke Recently, a friend and I hosted The Johnny Cash Birthday Bash for our sons, Johnny and Cash. This bash was complete with a Folsom Prison for photo opportunities, an obstacle course wherein kids could walk the line and jump through a ring of fire, record-styled cakes and cookies and a band playing Johnny

Cash covers. So you see, we don’t mess around.

So when it came to hosting a wine and cheese shower, I spared no detail. The beauty of this kind of party is that it is fairly simple to prepare for, if you plan ahead. Because the bulk of the food is just cheese that you paired with wine, you can focus on just a couple of hot snacks to provide extra sustenance to your wine-drinking friends.

For this party, I set up three tables in the backyard. I ordered some chalkboard contact paper from Amazon.com, and I bought some cheap white tablecloths at a dollar store.

Eventually Ryan, a full-time public defender for the Kansas Court of Appeals, and Caroline, who just started her own CPA firm, would like to farm full-time. Until then, there are late nights, early mornings, 16-plus-hour days and some muchappreciated help from neighbors.

PUBLIC NOTICE CONTINUED ON 8

Dear Annie: My wife’s sister and her husband moved in with my mother-in-law 30 years ago.

Mom was the sole caregiver until age limited her ability, and then government aid allowed for home assistance. Mom supported them while my brother-in-law spent every dime on alcohol and toys. When Mom died two years ago, my sister-in-law ended up in a nursing home.

My brother-in-law is in bankruptcy and has done nothing to plan for his wife’s needs.

My wife owns the house, although there is a lien on it from the state because of the aid my sister-in-law received.

My wife and I cannot manage the responsibility or expense of maintaining the home, and we’d like to sell it and pay back the state.

Four months ago, we informed my brotherin-law that we will be

Annie’s Mailbox

Marcy Sugar and Kathy Mitchell anniesmailbox@comcast.net

putting it up for sale. But he has not moved out. In fact, he says his lawyer told him he can drag it out for a year.

As bad as my brotherin-law is, I still feel some compassion for him, although I do not feel we are responsible for him.

I have held onto the letter informing him to vacate the house. I need help with licking the stamp so we can move on. — C. Dear C.: You can hire a lawyer to have your brother-in-law evicted more quickly, but it

Can young judges save ‘X Factor’?

Britney Spears: She used to make a spectacle of herself. Now she wears them. Why put on Drew Carey’s glasses? To add a little gravitas to her new role as a judge/mentor on the second season of “The X Factor” (7 p.m., Fox).

As we all know, the show’s first season in the U.S. was a bit of a nonstarter. Simon Cowell and Fox hoped that this new version of the hit U.K. singing competition would create a second Death Star, an unassailable ratings giant to complement “American Idol.”

That didn’t happen. If anything, “X,” along with “The Voice” and “America’s Got Talent,” combined to saturate the airwaves and create a sense of talent show exhaustion among viewers that contributed to diminishing returns for “Idol.”

So this year “X’’ returns with two new judges. On one level, choosing Spears and Demi Lovato makes a lot of sense. The audience for these showcases seems to be composed of teenage girls consumed with dreams of becoming big stars. And both judges were celebrities well before their 20th birthday.

Although Spears and Lovato stand in nicely as figures of tween wish fulfillment, they are also essentially competing for the role pioneered by Paula Abdul — that of the flirtatious music industry has-been clutching desperately to her second 15 minutes of fame. And they’re both a little too young for that role.

In the 10-minute reel made available for review, Spears does little to stand out. She wears black plastic glasses nicely and verges on happy tears when a 13-year-old ingenue belts out “Feeling Good,” made famous

by Nina Simone. Watching a kid barely out of grade school interpret a number by a world-weary diva is part of what makes this karaoke showcase so peculiar and occasionally morbid.

Bottom line: Glasses won’t make Britney Spears any smarter, and two new judges won’t save “X Factor” from its own has-been status.

Tonight’s other highlights

Six acts get their final crack at fame on “America’s Got Talent” (8 p.m., NBC).

A patient takes Hank far from the Hamptons on “Royal Pains” (8 p.m., USA).

“Inside the NFL” (8 p.m., Showtime) takes a glance around the gridiron.

Shrill stereotypes sink the gay parenting/surrogacy sitcom “The New Normal” (9:30 p.m., NBC).

A father and son scour the globe for vintage weapons on “Family Guns” (9 p.m., National Geographic).

BIRTHDAYS Actor Joe Pantoliano is 61.

Actor Peter Scolari is 57. Kansas Gov. Sam Brownback is 56. Rock singer-musician Ben Folds (Ben Folds Five) is 46. Actor-comedian Louis C.K. is 45. Singer-actress Jennifer Hudson is 31. Actress Emmy Rossum is 26.

sounds as if you are reluctant to do that. Try talking to your brother-in-law calmly, and find out what his future plans are. Ask how you can help him move into more manageable accommodations. Suggest he contact AA, but understand that there is only so much you can do if your brother-in-law is unwilling to help himself.

Dear Annie: I’d like to see my children wait until marriage before having sex, but I realize that probably will not happen. I want to be able to advise my children correctly, so here are my questions: What is the age of consent? And if two 15-year-olds are intimate and caught, are both punished the same?

Under the current system, a 17-year-old boy could have consensual sex with his 15-yearold girlfriend and go to jail. The boy is branded

for life as a sex offender.

I think these laws are outdated and need to be modified. — Ellen in Florida Dear Ellen: The age of consent varies by state and falls somewhere between 16 and 18. You can find this information on the Internet simply by typing “age of consent by state” into your search engine. The punishment also varies by state and depends on the age of the older partner, the age of the younger partner, the number of years between them, etc.

These laws were intended to protect children from predatory adults, although we agree that a distinction should be made for teenagers who have consensual sex with their boyfriends and girlfriends.

Until then, however, please be sure your children understand the risks and urge them to be careful.

7 Question for the courts?

Count on giving more than 100 percent, no matter what you are doing. Your efforts to pitch in and help others might be more appreciated than you think. Tonight: Choose a favorite stressbuster.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) Your very playful personality emerges, which allows greater give-and-take. With humor, you can say much more than usual.

Tonight: Let your hair down!
