Downtown parking subject of city review

By Chad Lawhorn clawhorn@ljworld.com

Forget about the battles you have with other motorists for a prime parking spot in downtown Lawrence. The debate over downtown parking may be headed to a new level.

City commissioners are reviewing a report that examines how private developers could build on the public parking lots that line sections of Vermont and New Hampshire streets without creating a shortage of public parking downtown.

Specific developments haven’t been proposed.

Rather, city planners are suggesting commissioners start thinking about how or if they are willing to let the surface parking lots redevelop with a mix of multistory buildings and parking garages.

“Some of the larger

parcels potentially available for development in downtown are those parking lots,” said Scott McCullough, the city’s director of planning and development services. “It is almost an entire block’s worth in some cases.”

Members of the city’s historic resources and

planning commissions have put together a report that provides suggestions on how any such future developments should proceed. Among the recommendations: • Any private development that occurs on a public parking lot should ensure that the new de-

velopment provides at least as many public parking spaces as existed before the development.

• Additional parking spaces should be provided for developments — such as apartments or retail uses — that will Please see PARKING, page 7A

Journal-World obituary policy:

Ms. Fayetta Renay noRwood Ms. Fayetta Renay Norwood died Jan. 4, 2014, at Lawrence Memorial Hospital. She was born Nov. 13, 1954, in Winfield, Kan., the only daughter of Lafayette and Betty Ann Norwood.

She graduated from Wichita Heights High School in 1972, and went on to take some classes studying dentistry. In March 1976, she gave birth to her first child, Alexius S. Norwood (Lex). Two years after the birth of her second child, Akeshia R. Norwood (Kesh) in 1980, she moved to Topeka upon receiving a pianist position at First Church of God In Christ with fellow family friend and pianist Vickie Divers. As a local church pianist in Topeka, she began doing guest appearances for different churches around town and in 1984 became the musical director at Abundance of Life Church of God in Christ, in which she remained until 1985. In 1985, she and her children moved to Lawrence to be closer to family, and became the musical director for Overcoming Church of God in Christ, and was there from 1988-1994.

From 1994 to present, she went on to hold several musical positions for the City of Lawrence, from playing piano for the Lawrence chapter of Women’s Aglow, to also playing for the “LINK” food outreach program, and aided her mother, Betty Ann Norwood, for several years. In 2004, she moved to Albany, New York, to join her son in writing and recording music, writing over 120 Gospel songs, essays, short stories, and poems over a period of 20 years, living in such places as Albany, Houston, and Nashville, where she did some original recordings of her musical works.

NaNcy JeaN JoNes Nancy Jean Jones was promoted to her heavenly home on Tuesday, January 7, 2014 in Lawrence, Kansas at the age of 89 following a brief battle with pneumonia.

She was born May 9, 1924 in Lawrence, the daughter of James and Cynthia Johnson.

She was a graduate of Lawrence High School.

Nancy worked for the Lawrence Journal World in the Commercial Printing Department for many years, and later worked for Lawrence Printing Service.

She was a member of Clinton Parkway Assembly of God (360° Church) for more than 70 years. For over 40 years, she was involved in the Children’s Ministries of both Clinton Parkway A/G and Faith Chapel A/G in Overland Park, Kansas, where her son pastored.

She has been a resident of Lawrence all of her life, except for three years spent in California.

Nancy married Don Jones on September 8, 1946 in Lawrence. Her husband preceded her in death in 2008. She is survived by daughter Lurlyne Smith and

Carol NalbaNdiaN Carol Nalbandian, a resident of Lawrence since 1976, passed away on January 7, 2014 in her home. Time and place for a celebration of her life will be announced.

She was born in 1944 to Yoneyo and Eiichi Taniguchi in a WWII internment camp in Arizona. Following the war, her family resettled in Los Angeles where she grew up in the house behind the mom and pop grocery store her parents owned and operated.

As a child she attended Japanese language classes and learned and publicly performed traditional dances in addition to excelling in school. Carol graduated on scholarship from the University of Southern California where she met John, her husband of 47 years.

Following John’s time in the Army and CIA and with their young child, John Baylor in arms, they returned to Los Angeles, where Carol supported the family as John earned his PhD. John’s work took them to what for them was a great unknown— Lawrence, Kansas--in 1976 and employment as a faculty member in Public Administration at the University of Kansas.

Carol worked at KU specializing in professional management education in the School of Continuing Education and then in the School of Business.

Opportunity arose with the Leadership Center at the Menninger Foundation in Topeka where she practiced the client centered consultation skills she had learned during her Masters degree education at California State University, Los Angeles, and then later with her doctoral degree in Communication Studies at KU. Carol became John’s partner not only in life, but in work as well.

Carol led the relationship side of their management consultant business, which took them all over the country working with local governments. They hosted local government professionals from around the world in their home, and Carol enjoyed immensely the Christmas parties and summer picnics they hosted for John’s Public Administration students.

Carol’s life was marked by the unpretentious but powerful influence of her Buddhist upbringing.

She was notably and admirably comfortable with herself. She never asked for more than she had. She could find something of interest in virtually every person she met. She was the consummate caretaker – always making sure that the needs of others

TrisTan alexis WesTphal were met. And, she loved every moment she spent with her precious grandchildren, George and Janie.

In addition to her work and family, Carol gave much to the community.

She served on the boards of Headquarters Crisis Counseling Center, the Community Mercantile, Friends of the Library, and most recently, 10,000 Villages and Family Promise.

Carol first encountered the oncology group at Lawrence Memorial Hospital in 2002 when breast cancer was discovered and continued to receive treatment after she presented symptoms of ovarian cancer in 2007. Never did she see herself in a “fight” with the cancer; never did she use the term “battle,” and never did she say “why me?” She accepted every new physical limitation on her life as part of a new normal and in doing so she earned the respect of those who knew what she was going through. The family is grateful to the Oncology Center at Lawrence Memorial Hospital and also to Visiting Nurses of Douglas County Hospice for their caring involvement with both Carol and John.

In addition to her husband, Carol leaves her son, John, her daughter-in-law, Carrie, and Carol’s dearest grandchildren, George and Janie, in Northern Kentucky.

She is survived by her sister, June; her brother-in-law, Allen, in Los Angeles; and her two nieces, Lisa, in Portland, and Naomi and her family, in the Bay Area. She leaves her husband’s caring sister, Terry, in Los Angeles.

Inurnment will be at the Higashi Honganji Buddhist Temple in Los Angeles.

The family prefers no flowers; tributes in Carol’s name to the Lawrence Public Library (www. lawrencepubliclibrary foundation.org/) or a charity of choice are welcomed and may be sent in care of WarrenMcElwain Mortuary, 120 W. 13th Street, Lawrence, KS 66044.

Tax CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A

$390 to the borrower’s closing costs.

In telephone interviews, leaders of the legislative tax committees said repeal of the tax will be debated during the 2014 session that starts Monday.

“That is an issue that is definitely going to be up and running as soon as we get back in session,” said Senate Tax Committee Chairman Les Donovan, R-Wichita.

State Rep. Richard Carlson, R-St. Marys, and chairman of the House Tax Committee, said he expected the inequities of how the tax is assessed and the effect repeal would have on counties would be discussed during debate on the bill.

“Those are the things we will have to look at,” he said.

Chairman Mike Gaughan said repeal of the tax, paid when mortgages are filed with the county, would deprive the county of its third largest revenue source after the property tax and sales tax. The mortgage tax brought in $1.9 million in 2013, he said.

The Kansas Bankers Association and Kansas Realtors Association are lobbying legislators to eliminate the mortgage registration tax, arguing that it is unfair because those who pay cash for a home avoid paying the tax. Additionally, borrowers that use government-sponsored lenders are not subjected to the tax.

Pawlicki retires after impressive tenure at KU

Davis campaign collects $1 million

The show goes on

By Ben Unglesbee bunglesbee@ljworld.com

When former Kansas University provost David Shulenburger was faced with a leadership vacuum at the university, he often turned to Fred Pawlicki.

Pawlicki served in a string of adPawlicki ministrative jobs at KU, the most recent of which was the executive director of KU Continuing Education, which offers professional and noncredit courses across the state.

His role there, and a career at KU that has lasted more than 20 years, was celebrated Wednesday by friends and colleagues as it came to an end.

A retirement party for Pawlicki at the Lied Center Pavilion brought in those who had worked closely with him to speak about his career.

Pawlicki began at KU in 1992. Before taking the lead position at KU Continuing Education, he served as director of operations, associate director and interim executive director of the Lied Center of Kansas as well as interim executive director of the Spencer Museum of Art. In an interview, Pawlicki said he was often picked because of his experience in the private sector, which included Please see PAWLICKI, page 4A

Lawrence couple keeps people up to date with Civil War historical sites, events via the Internet

By Stephen Montemayor smontemayor@ljworld.com

Lawrence residents Don and Norma Pierce met years ago as co-workers at a Tulsa, Okla., newspaper where Don was a photojournalist and Norma a feature writer. A good first impression by Don and some strategy by Norma paved the way for a marriage and working relationship that continues today.

“I would make my assignments when I knew it was his time to work,” Norma Pierce said.

These days time to work begins at sunrise in the couple’s Northeast Lawrence home where the Pierces publish civilwartraveler.com, a website of event listings, essays and photography related to Civil War history across the country.

They say their goal is to list every Civil War site and commemorative event in the county that is open to the public. Don produces editorial content, including photography, and handles ad sales while Norma designs, copy edits and is the webmaster and bookkeeper.

The site listed nearly 1,500 events for 2013.

A tabloid-format newspaper preceded the website. The Pierces, citing Google data, say civilwartraveler.com drew more than 343,000 unique visitors from Nov. 1, 2012 to Oct. 31, 2013, with more than 1.1 million total page views. The site also has a monthly e-news service with about 6,100 subscribers and a Facebook page with nearly 2,000 friends.

The Pierces moved to Lawrence from Civil War-site-rich Virginia more than a year ago.

Topeka — Democratic candidate Paul Davis raised a little more than $1 million in cash contributions in less than five months for his bid to unseat Republican incumbent Sam Brownback in the Kansas governor’s race, Davis’ campaign reported Wednesday.

Davis’ team touted the fundraising as unprecedented for a challenger in the GOP-leaning state, but close Brownback ally David Kensinger said he was unimpressed because the Republican’s re-election campaign had more than twice as much cash on hand at the end of 2013 as Davis did.

The Democrat’s campaign filed a finance report with the secretary of state’s Please see DAVIS, page 4A

Heritage grants used to leverage additional funds

By Peter Hancock phancock@ljworld.com

Local groups that have received Heritage Conservation Grants from Douglas County in the past three years have raised nearly twice that much again from other funding sources by using the local funds as leverage to secure additional grants.

Bobbi Rahder, program manager for the Heritage Conservation Council, which administers the grant program, told Douglas County commissioners Wednesday that since the grant program was established in 2011, the county has awarded $834,050 for various projects. But those grants have helped secure nearly $1.5 million, or about 182 percent, in additional resources.

Pawlicki CONTINUED FROM PAGE 3A

Bobbi Rahder, program manager for the Heritage Conservation Council, which administers the grant program, told Douglas County commissioners that since the grant program was established in 2011, the county has awarded $834,050 for various projects.

Those include private donations, state and federal grants, donated land grants and easements, and other tangible forms of in-kind donations.

One of the largest of those was $230,000 that the Douglas County Historical Society received from outside sources after the county invested $120,000 over two years to develop a permanent exhibit at the Watkins Museum at 1047 Massachusetts.

Rahder’s report also listed $290,581 in outside resources that have been

committed for the Hamilton Conservation Easement on 276 acres of farmland northwest of Eudora. The county invested $22,300 in that project.

Next week, the Heritage Conservation Council will formally announce the opening of the 2014 grant period. The commission included $325,000 in this year’s budget for the grant program. The council plans to make its recommendations for grant awards in late April, and commissioners are scheduled to vote on those grants May 7.

“I come from a business background, and what we do in the arts is business,” he said. With Continuing Education, Pawlicki said Shulenburger asked him to come aboard to “make it more of an entrepreneurial organization,” that could pay its own way.

At the event KU Provost Jeffrey Vitter, who said Pawlicki was one of the first people he met after joining KU in 2010, announced Pawlicki’s sta-

tus as executive director emeritus with the university.

Other colleagues heaped thanks, praise and gifts on Pawlicki. Jim Peters, director of the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute, a part of KU Continuing Education that offers courses to people over 50, presented Pawlicki with a lifelong membership to Osher.

Those who worked with him said that Pawlicki worked as a collaborator, not a heavy-handed boss. “You inspired us to be courageous and bold,” said Soma Chakrabarti, director of the Continuing Education Aerospace Short Course Program. “You are a mentor, a friend, a leader and a colleague.”

entire state.”

Davis’ donors included former Lt. Gov. Gary Sherrer and former state Senate Majority Leader Tim Emert, both moderate Republicans. Sherrer contributed $1,000 and Emert, $250; the maximum allowed is $2,000.

The Democrat is trying to appeal to unaffiliated voters and moderate and liberal Republicans unhappy with the conservative GOP governor by making funding for public schools a major issue.

Brownback successfully pushed for massive personal income tax cuts and expects them to stimulate the economy, but critics, including Davis and many educators, believe the reductions will starve schools and state programs of money.

But Kensinger said it would be unprecedented for a challenger to overcome a 2.5to-1 deficit in cash on hand at the beginning of an election year. He noted that Kansas law prevents candidates from accepting contributions from corporations or political action committees during the Legislature’s annual, 90-day session, which begins next week.

Beatty acknowledged that Davis’ campaign will have to sustain its fundraising to keep its campaign viable but said last year’s figures represent “a good start.”

fundraising to show potential donors and others that he can run a credible campaign. Doing so was “impressive in the relatively short amount of time he had,” Beatty said.

“He’s a legitimate challenger and a strong challenger,” Beatty said. “He passed his first test.”

Davis’ campaign said it had more than 3,300 donors from 175 communities in 65 of the state’s 105 counties, with the majority of donors contributing $200 or less. The campaign said its fundraising shows that Davis has support among unaffiliated and Republican voters — something he needs in a state in which Democrats make up fewer than 25 percent of the 1.7 million registered voters.

“Kansans in every corner of the state are concerned about the direction we are headed under Sam Brownback,” Davis said in a statement announcing the figures.

THE SHIRE GRILLED CHEESE SANDWICH AT PACHAMAMA’S, 800 NEW HAMPSHIRE ST., IS LOADED WITH CHEDDAR, BLUE, AND MANCHEGO along with a touch of quince and grilled to perfection. BELOW: The Say Cheese grilled cheese sandwich at Java Break, 17 E. Seventh St., is a three-cheese blend with your choice of three veggies or sauces.

CHEESE I s there such a thing as a grilled cheese season? Perhaps not.

But being deep into the throes of winter, there may not be a better time of year to munch down the classic sandwich and dunk it into a bowl of soup.

blends of cheese and other assorted ingredients. Here’s how six local restaurants serve the classic sandwich.

Elliot Hughes/Journal-World Photo

Greek Grilled Cheese Where to get it: Mad Greek, 907 Massachusetts St. What you get: It comes with kasseri, a traditional Greek cheese, melted together with feta, tomato, herbs and aioli sauce. It comes with fries.

What you’ll pay: $8.99 Try it with: For an extra dollar, get the fries with Greek herbs and feta on top.

The Shire Where to get it: Pachamama’s, 800 New Hampshire St. What you get: This one’s got a sweeter side.

It comes with quince in paste form, which carries an apple-like flavor. Cheddar, blue and Manchego make up the current roster of cheeses (it alternates).

Sourdough bread bookends it all, and a salad comes in tow. And sorry, “Lord of the Rings” fans, this sandwich isn’t named after the home of the Hobbits — ­ it’s a reference to the name of the street the restaurant is located on.

What you’ll pay: $6 Try it with: A fried egg or apple-smoked bacon.

I’m hopeful that I’ll get a chance to chat with Patmon some more regarding how large the group of followers are in the Lawrence area and perhaps give you a peek at how they live their lives.

We’ll see whether that comes to fruition. The Twelve Tribes organization has been in the media before. As you can imagine, the organization takes exception to how some people have labeled the group a “cult.” There also have been media reports over the years involving law enforcement removing some children from Twelve Tribes communities. In all honesty, I don’t have a good handle on the type of controversies that may have sprung up around the organization, but I know there have been some because the Twelve Tribes organization makes a point to note them on its website.

I’ll let you know when I learn more.

said. “The way it was described to me, it could withstand missiles.”

Bishop Seabury held an open house Wednesday to show off the new rooms, which were funded in part with a $451,554 grant which Douglas County Emergency Management helped secure for the school through the Federal Emergency Management Agency.

The two locker rooms — the boys’ and girls’ — are designed to meet FEMA’s standards for a community safe room, which includes being able to withstand winds up to 250 miles per hour.

That was the estimated strength of an F-5 tornado like the one that struck Joplin, Mo., in 2011, killing 158 people, or the one that leveled Greensburg, Kan., in 2007, killing 11.

Those and other storms have helped raise public awareness about the need for safe rooms, especially in schools where large numbers of

create additional demand on downtown’s parking system.

City commissioners haven’t taken action on the report, but are suggesting that a study session on the topic be held in coming weeks. Commissioners are indicating they are open to more

children are concentrated and which frequently don’t have basements or underground shelters.

In fact, Schawang said, the idea for building a safe room at Bishop Seabury came from a member of the school’s Board of Trustees who served as a first responder after the Joplin tornado.

“Before we had the fundraising, the occasional parent would ask, what do you do, what’s the procedure for safety,” Schawang said. “It was like just about any school — the occasional hallway, the occasional room. The same is true at most schools, un-

fortunately.”

Lawrence school district officials have said they are also making provisions for storm safety as part of the building renovations being funded with the recently passed $92.5 million bond issue.

Schawang said the FEMA grant covered a little more than half the total cost of the safe room, which he said was more than $800,000.

The project was part of larger renovation project at the school, which is housed in what was formerly the Alvamar Racquet Club at 4120 Clinton Parkway.

multistory buildings downtown.

“We have always said the salvation of downtown is to build more density, and we have some opportunities to do that,” said City Commissioner Bob Schumm, a downtown businessman and property owner.

How tall future buildings should be is another question the planning report attempts to answer. In recent years, downtown has seen construction of an approximately 85-foot tall retail/ apartment building on the southwest corner of Ninth and New Hampshire streets, and con-

struction work is underway on an approximately 60-foot tall Marriott extended stay hotel on the southeast corner of the intersection. Plans have been filed for a seven-story apartment building on the northeast corner of the intersection, and a development group led by Lawrence businessman Doug Compton hopes to build a seven-story retail/ apartment building on the Allen Press property at 11th and Massachusetts streets.

The planning report suggests that the city’s development code be changed to make it clear that developers have no

Topeka — A Kansas lawmaker has questioned why a state agency included sexual orientation in an anti-discrimination clause for safe houses for victims of human trafficking.

The safe houses are part of anti-trafficking statutes passed by the state Legislature last year, The Topeka Capital-Journal reported. The legislation was a major initiative for Gov. Sam Brownback, who will sign a proclamation today declaring January Human Trafficking Awareness Month in Kansas.

Daric Smith, the Kansas Department of Health and Environment’s program director for child placing and residential programs, came before the Joint Committee on Administrative Rules and Regulations on Tuesday to tell legislators how the department planned to implement the law.

Rep. Jan Pauls, DHutchinson, asked Smith why sexual orientation was included with gender and race in the nondiscrimina-

guaranteed right to build to the maximum 90-foot height stated in the code.

Instead, it says, the regulations should emphasize that the maximum height of a building will be determined by the height of nearby buildings and whether the site is next to a residential neighborhood.

Neighborhood and historic preservation organizations have begun to express concerns that too many large buildings could have a detrimental impact on downtown.

“I think there is general agreement that more people living downtown will be good for downtown,”

tion categories for admission to the secure facilities.

She said state statutes don’t include sexual orientation among attributes for which Kansans are protected from discrimination.

Governor appoints senator to KCC Topeka — Gov. Sam Brownback has appointed former Republican Senate Majority Leader Jay Emler to fill a vacancy on the Kansas Corporation Commission.

The appointment was announced Wednesday, less than a week before the start of the 2014 legislative session.

Emler, if confirmed by the Senate, would resign his seat and serve a fouryear term on the KCC. He will fill the vacancy created by the resignation of Mark Sievers, who announced he was leaving the KCC in December.

Emler has been in the Senate since 2001, representing Chase, Ellsworth, Marion, McPherson and Morris counties. The threemember KCC regulates natural gas, electricity,

Dennis Brown, president of the Lawrence Preservation Alliance, recently told commissioners. “But what doesn’t follow is that every building proposed needs to be sevento-nine stories tall and half-a-block long.”

Linda Bush, president of the Lawrence Association of Neighborhoods, told commissioners she would like to see code language that would set a maximum of 38.5 feet, about the height of the Lawrence Arts Center on New Hampshire Street, for any new building next to a residential neighborhood.

Schumm, though, said

telephone and transportation operations in Kansas.

Justices seek briefs in ‘Hard 50’ cases Topeka — Justices of the Kansas Supreme Court are asking attorneys for the state and four defendants to file additional legal briefs regarding the state’s “Hard 50” prison sentence.

An order was issued Tuesday by the court in four cases heard since October. Each case involves a defendant who has been sentenced to life in prison with a mandatory prison term of 50 years before being eligible for parole.

The state’s “Hard 50” sentence has been the center of attention since June when the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in a Virginia case regarding how mandatory minimum prison sentences are imposed when they depart from the standard sentence.

The high court ruled that in such cases juries, not judges, can impose the sentences.

he wanted to be careful not to create an arbitrary height limit because different areas of downtown can reasonably support different sizes of buildings. Commissioner Mike Amyx said one idea is to create districts within the downtown and set height guidelines for each district.

Commissioners said those are the type of ideas to discuss in a study session.

“But there is clearly the potential for us to lay the ground work for a lot of neat stuff to happen in downtown,” City Commissioner Jeremy Farmer said.

Messages tie Christie aide to N.J. traffic jam

By Angela Delli Stani and David Porter Associated Press

Trenton, N.J. — A political dirty-tricks investigation of Gov. Chris Christie’s inner circle broke wide open Wednesday with the release of emails and text messages that suggest one of his top aides engineered traffic jams in a New Jersey town last September to punish its mayor.

An “outraged and deeply saddened” Christie responded by saying he was misled by his aide, and he denied involvement in the apparent act of political payback.

The messages were obtained by The Associated Press and other news organizations Wednesday amid a statehouse investigation into whether the lane closings that led to the tie-ups were retribution against the mayor of Fort Lee for not endorsing Christie for re-election last fall.

“Time for some traffic problems in Fort Lee,” Christie deputy chief of staff Bridget Anne Kelly wrote in August in a message to David Wild-

stein, a top Christie appointee on the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey.

“Got it,” Wildstein replied. A few weeks later, Wildstein closed two of three lanes connecting Fort Lee to the heavily traveled George Washington Bridge, which runs between New Jersey and New York City.

The messages do not directly implicate Christie in the shutdown, but they appear to contradict his assertions that the closings were not punitive and that his staff was not involved.

Democrats seized on the material as more evidence that the potential Republican candidate for president in 2016 is a bully.

The messages “indicate what we’ve come to expect from Gov. Christie — when people oppose him, he exacts retribution. When people question him, he belittles and snidely jokes. And when anyone dares to look into his administration, he bullies and attacks,” Democratic National Committee chairwoman Debbie WassermanSchultz said.

In a statement issued

NEW JERSEY ASSEMBLYMAN JOHN S. WISNIEWSKI, N.J., ANSWERS a question at the Statehouse, in Trenton, N.J., Wednesday, after a top aide to New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie was linked through emails and text messages to a seemingly deliberate plan to create traffic gridlock in a town at the base of the George Washington Bridge. late Wednesday, Christie said: “I am outraged and deeply saddened to learn that not only was I misled by a member of my staff, but this completely inappropriate and unsanctioned conduct was made without my knowledge.”

“People will be held responsible for their actions,” he added, but gave no details.

Kelly had no immediate comment.

Fort Lee Mayor Mark Sokolich called it “ap-

palling” that the traffic jams appear to have been deliberately created.

“When it’s manmade and when it was done with venom and when it was done intentionally, it is, in my mind, the prime example of political pettiness,” he said. He said the gridlock put people in danger by holding up emergency vehicles, and he added that those responsible should resign.

Beirut — Al-Qaida is positioning itself as a vanguard defending the Sunni community against what it sees as persecution by Shiite-dominated governments across Syria, Lebanon and Iraq.

As a result, a Syrian rebellion whose aim was the removal of President Bashar Assad is evolving into something both bigger and more ambiguous: a fight increasingly led by Sunni jihadis — often foreign and animated mainly by hatred of Shiites — who are determined to create an Islamic state.

Battling these extremists is a coalition that includes moderates who are horrified that their rebellion in Syria has been discredited, with parts of the country falling under strict religious law.

For moderates in the Middle East, the renewed assertiveness of the extremists is increasingly taking on the aspect of a regional calamity.

“The war in Syria has poured gasoline on a raging fire in Iraq, and conflicts in both countries are feeding upon one another and complicating an already complex struggle,” said Fawaz A. Gergez, director of the Middle East Center at the London School of Economics. “Now the reverberations of the Syria war are being felt on Arab streets, particularly Iraq and Lebanon, and are aggravating Sunni-Shiite tensions across the Arab Middle East.”

Why now? Experts see a fundamental al-Qaida characteristic of feeding on social, religious and ideological cleavages — of the kind that have been exposed in spectacular fashion in the Sunni-Shiite divide in Syria.

It is fed by a vicious circle hugely frustrating to the moderate mainstream rebels: the more the West shows reluctance to intervene — fearful that helping them means also aiding global jihad even indirectly — the more

“

The war in Syria has poured gasoline on a raging fire in Iraq, and conflicts in both countries are feeding upon one another and complicating an already complex struggle. ” — Fawaz A, Gergez, director of the Middle East Center at the London School of Economics there is a void for the jihadis to step into, capitalizing on the widening sectarian schism to recruit new fighters.

The al-Qaida-linked group that calls itself the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant has made no secret of its desire to turn Syria’s civil war into a regional conflagration that would allow it to take firmer root. Its very name, rebranded last year from the more-local Islamic State of Iraq, spells out its cross-border ambitions.

Even as its fighters were busy seizing territory in Syria, it has been dramatically escalating its operations inside Iraq, carrying out mass-casualty attacks and staging a series of audacious prison breaks that freed more than 500 inmates. Many of those were jihadists who are believed to have flowed back into the group’s ranks.

This week, fighters of Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant overran the city of Fallujah and parts of Ramadi in Iraq’s Sunni-dominated Anbar province, which stretches west to the border with Syria. This triggered fierce clashes with Iraqi special forces and government-allied Sunni tribes trying to recapture the strategic territory.

The al-Qaida gains pose the most serious challenge to Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki’s Shiite-led government since the departure of U.S. forces in late 2011.

BRIEFLY Murder trial dropped for former Nazi Berlin — A German court on Wednesday dropped the case against a 92-year-old former member of the Nazi SS accused of killing a Dutch resistance fighter in 1944, ruling that there are too many gaps in the evidence to deliver a verdict.

The Hagen state court said there was enough evidence to convict Dutchborn Siert Bruins, now a German citizen, of manslaughter, court spokesman Jan Schulte said.

However, that charge falls under Germany’s statute of limitations.

The witnesses needed to possibly prove the charge of murder — for which there is no statute of limitations— are now all dead so the court decided it had no option but to drop the case, Schulte said.

Swedish journalists released in Syria Stockholm — Two Swedish journalists who were abducted in Syria have been released after a month and a half in captivity, Swedish and Red Cross officials said Wednesday.

One of them told a Swedish newspaper he had been shot in the leg during a failed escape attempt.

“I was extremely lucky to make it without bleeding to death,” photographer Niclas Hammarstrom was quoted as saying by Aftonbladet, his former employer.

Chris Brown rejects plea deal Washington — Lawyers for singer Chris Brown told a judge Wednesday that he has rejected a plea deal on a charge that he hit a man outside a Washington hotel.

Prosecutors had offered a deal in which Brown would plead guilty to the misdemeanor assault charge he faces. One of Brown’s lawyers, Danny Onorato, said outside of court that attorneys rejected the deal because Brown is not guilty.

Banner, song to be joined for Flag Day Washington — The original, handwritten manuscript of “The Star-Spangled Banner” and the flag that inspired the song’s lyrics will be displayed together at the Smith-

They’ll be displayed together from Flag Day, June 14, through July 6.

Confusion for Utah same-sex couples Salt Lake City — Michael Mathie proposed to his partner Tyler McCraley on Christmas and obtained a marriage license the next day. They made plans for a wedding but couldn’t carry through with it because the Supreme Court put same-sex marriage on hold before they could tie the knot. Confusion is resonating throughout Utah after a two-week rush on gay marriages was brought to a sudden halt this week.

Couples find themselves in various stages of limbo now that everything has been put on pause.

The validity of the marriages will ultimately be decided by the Denverbased 10th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals.

nized as refugees protested Wednesday outside of Israel’s parliament, part of a series of mass demonstrations over their status in Israel.

Police said more than 10,000 migrants rallied outside the Knesset, the Israeli parliament, with hundreds more continuing to stream into Jerusalem from across the country.

The migrants staged two other mass protests this week in Tel Aviv, where they demanded the right to work and better treatment.

The migrants chanted “we are refugees, we need protection,” as they raised their hands into the air.

case for free. Though prosecutors say he misspent, embezzled and lost $21 million, Price was able to show the court that he doesn’t have enough money to hire a lawyer, said U.S. Magistrate Judge G.R. Smith.

Authorities say Price faked financial records in an attempt to cover his tracks before he disappeared in June 2012.

2 dead after copter goes down in Va. Virginia — A Navy helicopter with five crew members crashed into the ocean off the Virginia coast during a routine training mission Wednesday, killing two crew members and leaving two in the hospital, the U.S. Navy said. Rescuers searched into the night for a fifth sailor.

The two who died were among four crewmembers hoisted from the 42-degree waters by a Navy helicopter and taken to a hospital, the Navy said in a statement. The two surviving sailors were being treated at Sentara Norfolk General Hospital.

One is listed in serious condition, the other has been upgraded to fair,

the Navy said in a news release.

Posse sues feds over gang label D etroit — The Insane Clown Posse sued the U.S. Justice Department on Wednesday over a 2011 FBI report that describes the rapmetal duo’s devoted fans, the Juggalos, as a dangerous gang, saying the designation has tarnished reputations and hurt business.

The American Civil Liberties Union filed the lawsuit in Detroit federal court on behalf of the group’s two members, Joseph Bruce, or Violent J, and Joseph Utsler, or Shaggy 2 Dope. It also names four fans as plaintiffs.

The FBI report on criminal gangs labeled the Juggalos as a “loosely organized hybrid gang.” It said those who identify as Juggalos have committed assaults and vandalism, and a “small number” of them have engaged in more serious crimes.

The lawsuit contends that the gang designation violates free speech and due process rights.

Not good enough Close only counts in horseshoes and hand grenades — not on cityfinanced construction projects.

C

onsidering all the attention that has been focused on the developer of Rock Chalk Park and the unusual no-bid contract he negotiated with the city of Lawrence, it’s hard to believe that everyone involved with this project doesn’t understand that this project is — and should be — held to a higher standard than the average city construction project.

When taxpayers hear about any variation from the quality standards set for this project, it should be that the standards were exceeded, not that they weren’t quite met — and certainly not that the contractor doing the work willfully ignored a city-hired inspector who told workers not to go forward with a concrete pour because the rebar and other structures to support that concrete didn’t meet city standards.

The combination of a developer who has a history of cutting corners and a city engineering department that appears willing to accept something less than the standards outlined in the development contract doesn’t instill much public confidence in this project.

The Nov. 30 concrete pour that took place despite warnings from city inspectors reportedly is the biggest — but not the first — quality issue the city has encountered with Bliss Sports, a company controlled by Lawrence developer Thomas Fritzel. Although city hall officials say they generally have been pleased with the work, there is reason to wonder whether they are too easily satisfied.

For instance, the development agreement specifically called for 10 inches of concrete on portions of George Williams Way to accommodate buses and other large vehicles that are expected to use the main road leading to the sports complex. Although city inspectors found that the concrete was only 9 or 9.5 inches in most locations, they haven’t required the concrete to be re-poured. Instead, City Engineer David Cronin said he would recommend the city deduct some amount of money from the project to compensate the city for the lower quality work. Will that amount be sufficient to compensate the city if it has to rebuild that street before its expected lifespan?

Cronin also noted that there “have been areas where pavements have come in thicker than expected.” Are we just taking an average here? Having some areas of thicker pavement doesn’t compensate for other areas of thinner pavement.

The engineer tried to downplay the Nov. 30 incident, saying, “The vast majority of the work out there has been acceptable.”

Knowing that the city thinks MOST of the work being done at Rock Chalk Park is OK isn’t particularly comforting. Taxpayers want to hear that ALL of the work out there is not just “acceptable,” but at or above the standards the city set forth.

Earlier this week, city officials said that the concrete poured on Nov. 30 was unacceptable and would have to be replaced. Fritzel wouldn’t concede that the concrete was not poured to standards, but said, if it was, it would be corrected This situation clearly shows that the city must be vigilant in monitoring this project and rigid in enforcing the standards set forth in the contract. If city officials fail to do that and are willing to accept and pay for substandard work, they may find themselves having to answer to taxpayers for a project that doesn’t live up to its extravagant price tag.

Iraq sliding under Iranian influence Washington — Four years ago, alQaida appeared to have been destroyed in Iraq. This week, fighters from the group captured Fallujah, a city where hundreds of Americans were killed or wounded in the last decade fighting the jihadists. How did this stunning reversal of fortune happen?

Like everything else about Iraq, this is a tragic and confusing story. But two points seem clear: First, the Obama administration, in its rush to leave the country, allowed the sectarian Shiite government of Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki to undo many of the gains made against al-Qaida; and second, Iran has waged a brilliant covert-action campaign that turned Maliki and Iraq into virtual clients of Tehran — and in the process alienated Sunnis and pushed them toward extremism.

“What is tragic is that Iraq’s slide toward an Iranian axis and civil war were not only predictable but indeed

David Ignatius

“

davidignatius@washpost.com

The Iranians, it must be said, play the Iraqi game with a finesse and staying power the U.S. has never matched.”

predicted by Iraq experts within the U.S. government,” laments one former U.S. official. “Iraq’s current meltdown and its grave implications on U.S. national security interests were entirely avoidable.”

The greatest irony of all is that Iraqis voted in March 2010 to dump Maliki in favor of an alternative slate headed

by Ayad Allawi, a pro-American former interim prime minister. In the horse-trading that followed, however, Maliki and his Iranian sponsors (bizarrely backed by the U.S.) ended up forming a new government, with Vice President Joe Biden, the architect of U.S. policy (if that’s the right word), proclaiming all the while that “politics has broken out in Iraq.”

Maliki’s new government has played a particularly vengeful sort of politics.

The government reneged on promises to pay the Sunni tribal militia that Gen.

David Petraeus had mobilized in 2007 and 2008 to battle al-Qaida in Fallujah and other areas of Anbar province.

Many Sunnis, fearing that Maliki’s Shiite government was simply a tool of Iran, began turning back toward sectarian warfare.

The covert campaign in Iraq was directed by Qassem Suleimani, the head of the Quds Force of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps, and it included a range of different Shiite figures around Maliki. This ability to ride many horses at once is a mark of Suleimani’s operating style. The Iranians also benefit from intelligence relationships that in some cases date back 40 years.

Iran has drawn its cards from a full deck of Iraqi militias. Abu Mahdi alMuhandis, who allegedly helped plan a 1983 attack on the U.S. Embassy in Kuwait, now directs the IRGC-backed insurgent group known as Kataib Hezbollah. Qais al-Khazali, charged with kidnapping and killing U.S. Marines in Karbala in 2007, runs an IRGC-allied insurgent group known as Asaib alHaq, or the League of the Righteous.

A third Iraqi Shiite militia is known as the Promised Day Brigades. At Iran’s covert direction, fighters from all three militias have been sent to Syria to battle Sunni rebels there.

Iran allegedly has been able to use Iraq as a staging ground for operations to support Syrian President Bashar al-Assad thanks partly to Hadi al-Ameri, the Iraqi minister of transport. He headed the Badr Brigade, a pro-Iranian militia.

The sectarian cleavage in Iraq has

widened since the U.S. departed. With Iraqi Shiites pulled toward Iran, Sunnis were drawn back toward the jihadist orbit — especially after Syria lurched into civil war. Al-Qaida fighters relentlessly moved across the porous border, and last year proclaimed themselves the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria. This new jihadist magnet has drawn about 10,000 foreign fighters, many with European passports.

Al-Qaida’s resurgence in Anbar has been chilling. Last week, hundreds of fighters, traveling in about 75 armed trucks, surged into Ramadi and took over police and gas stations there. Ramadi was largely cleared this week, thanks to Sunni tribal fighters. Fallujah will be harder to liberate. Maliki has heeded American advice not to allow the Iraqi army to storm the city, which would alienate the Sunni residents. Meanwhile, the Iraqi parliament has voted to put Sunni tribal fighters back on the payroll. But tragically, a new war to drive al-Qaida from the Euphrates Valley is beginning, just a few years after the terrorist group appeared to have been crushed there.

New Iraqi elections will be held in April. It’s a mark of Iran’s tactical skill that Tehran is said to be abandoning Maliki and searching for a new client.

America is picking up the slack, once more supplying Maliki with advice and weapons. The Iranians, it must be said, play the Iraqi game with a finesse and staying power the U.S. has never matched.

No room for gun compromise Here is what he said: “ … all constitutional rights are regulated, always have been, and need to be.”

It would seem to be a selfevident truth. After all, your First Amendment right to freedom of speech is regulated. If you don’t believe it, write something libelous about a guy with deep pockets and man-eating lawyers.

Your Fourth Amendment right to freedom from unreasonable searches and seizures is regulated and then some. If you don’t believe that, pick up your phone and ask the NSA agent tapping your line.

Unfortunately for him, Dick Metcalf, who made the aforementioned observation, was not referring to the First Amendment or the Fourth. No, he was talking about the Second. He’s been out of work ever since.

We are indebted to New York Times reporter Ravi Somaiya for bringing this story to light Sunday. Metcalf, who lives in Barry, Ill., is not a gun hater. To the contrary we are told that he is — or was, at any rate — one of the most prominent gun journalists in the country, a self-described “Second Amendment fundamentalist” who, at 67, has devoted most of his adult life to gun rights. He hosted a TV program about guns.

Gun makers flew him around the world and sent him their products for review. And he had a regular column in Guns & Ammo magazine.

In his December column, Metcalf offered a nuanced argument that gun enthusiasts should accept some minor regulation of their Second Amendment rights. Specifically, he said, a requirement

Leonard Pitts Jr. lpitts@miamiherald.com

“

For their sake and the country’s, thoughtful gun owners must find the moral courage to face and fix that sad state of affairs.”

that people who wanted to carry concealed weapons undergo 16 hours of training was not “excessive.” The way his fellow gun lovers responded to this, you’d have thought he’d argued for U.N. confiscation of every gun, arrow and slingshot in America.

There were death threats.

He lost his show. Subscription cancellations poured in.

Advertisers demanded he be fired. And he was.

The community he had supported so faithfully had made him a nonperson. See, that community has a simple credo: guns — no restrictions.

And any slightest deviation from that absolutist mantra is grounds for expulsion. If you are only with them 99 percent, you are not with them at all. George Orwell had a word for it: groupthink.

Metcalf’s experience is eye-opening, disheartening and worth remembering next time there is a mass shooting — they come with the regularity of buses —

and you find yourself wondering why we can’t all agree on some simple, commonsense ideas to take weapons of mass destruction out of the hands of those who should not have them.

Why not expanded background checks? Why not mandatory gun-safety classes? Why not some system of mental-health reporting?

Think of Metcalf when you hear yourself asking those questions. Then ask yourself how many other Metcalfs must be out there, how many other gun-rights advocates who know in their hearts something has gone haywire when mass shootings are so frequent they barely count as news. And maybe these people would speak up as Metcalf did — except they know they’d be treated as Metcalf was. So they say nothing. And silence enforces silence.

This is the tragedy of the American gun debate. It offers no space for people of good will to seek common ground. Gun-rights advocates have embraced a “with us or agin us” ethos under which even someone as unimpeachably pro-gun as Dick Metcalf becomes an enemy just because he has a (slightly) different idea.

For their sake and the country’s, thoughtful gun owners must find the moral courage to face and fix that sad state of affairs. Until they do, the debate over guns is likely to ricochet from one mass tragedy to the next without ever finding consensus. It takes two sides to reach consensus.

And in America, one side’s not even trying.

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for Jan. 9, 1914: years “Enter the Tango ago Tea into staid and IN 1914 quiet Lawrence.

Announcements of a Tango Tea to be given on the afternoon of Friday, January 16, and Tango Receptions on the afternoons of January 13th, 15th, and 16th were made here today.

Lawrence folks today found in their mail the invitations to attend these functions, which are to be given in Ecke’s Ball Room. ... Several weeks ago two Topeka, Kansas, girls came to Lawrence and gave some exhibitions of the Tango. It was rumored that they would start a class and teach the rah-rah boys and the co-eds the new steps. A couple of newspaper correspondents heard the rumors and immediately wired stories to the city papers. There was a great outburst of indignation directed against the pair of correspondents and they were summarily suspended from the University by Chancellor Strong. … Horrors, no, the new dances could not be considered, must not be tolerated under any circumstances.”

KANSAS 90, OKLAHOMA 83

New beginning

Selden provides spark

Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

Frankamp shows maturity at OU

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Norman, Okla. — Kansas University basketball coach Bill Self chose Wednesday’s day-of-the-Oklahoma-game shootaround to tell one of his prize freshmen to look for his shot more in games.

“He’s really been encouraging me. He actually said it today, too,” Wayne Selden said after exploding for a career-high 24 points off 9-of-17 shooting — five of 10 from three — in the Jayhawks’ 90-83 Big 12-opening victory over the Sooners in sold-out Noble Center.

“The confidence my teammates and coaches have in me ... that’s the main thing, and being out there just playing, not thinking,” Selden added, asked about the key to his surpassing his previous high of 15 points set against Duke in November.

Selden’s previous high in shot attempts was 10, also versus Duke. The most threes he’d hit in any game was two against UTEP and Georgetown. The most he’d attempted in a game was four, three times.

“I don’t know if he needed it, but we needed it,” Self said of Selden being given an order to shoot. “We need him to be more aggressive looking to score, to be a threat. He’s a starting 2 guard in our league that has played a lot of minutes in a lot of big games. He’s made 12 threes for the year (coming in). That’s not enough.

“I told all our guys: ‘New stats, new season. We won’t even talk about stats from the first season. Everything is fresh and new from this part forward.’ I think it gave them a bit of a new life, so to speak.”

Selden, who hit six of his first eight shots, had 15 of KU’s first 24 points as the Jayhawks led, 24-17, just 8:09 into the game.

“Wayne got us off to a good start,” Self said of the 6-foot-5 native of Roxbury, Mass. “We were a team that

KANSAS UNIVERSITY GUARD WAYNE SELDEN LETS OUT A ROAR after a three-pointer against Oklahoma durPlease see KANSAS, page 4B ing the second half of the Jayhawks’ 90-83 victory Wednesday in Norman, Okla.

Norman, Okla. — It never pays to give up on a player talented enough to warrant a scholarship offer from Bill Self, Kansas University’s 11th-year basketball coach, because Self never gives up on a player who tries to practice what he preaches. The smart ones figure that out.

The immature ones play their way to the end of the bench, even out of the program.

Put Conner Frankamp in the first group.

Accustomed to dominating games in high school, Frankamp came into Wednesday night’s Big 12 opener in Noble Center riding a streak during which he had not scored in KU’s past eight games, three of which he never was called off the bench. He totaled 17 minutes in the other five and misfired on all seven shots, five of them threepointers.

At 6-foot, 165 pounds, the freshman from Wichita didn’t look in his first Big 12 game like a player wondering if he were in over his head, didn’t show the body language of a bench-warmer convinced his coach had it in for him. In his 13 minutes on the floor, he looked like a comfortable point guard, running the team with poise and shooting with confidence.

In the first half, with the teams trading the lead in a fast-paced game, Naadir Tharpe picked up his third foul, and Frank Booker made one of two free throws to put the Sooners up by a point with 2:06 Please see KEEGAN, page 5B

Cold spell sinks Kansas women ————

Jayhawks go scoreless for 51⁄2 minutes in 52-50 loss to Texas Christian J-W Staff Reports

Fort Worth, Texas — Talk about a bad time to go cold.

After having led for most of the night and building a game-high lead of 11 points, Kansas University’s women’s basketball team iced over, going scoreless for nearly 51⁄2 minutes in a 5250 loss to Texas Christian on Wednesday.

Chelsea Gardner’s jumper with 5:23 left gave the Jayhawks (7-8 overall, 0-3 Big 12) a 47-36 lead with 5:23 to play.

Then the polar vortex hit.

KU missed free throws (two), jumpers (two) and

layups (two) and had two turnovers as the Horned Frogs (11-4, 2-1) surged.

They scored the next 16 points, a run that ended only with Markisha Hawkins’ three-pointer at the final buzzer.

And the Jayhawks’ losing streak hit three games.

“We were up 11, and we played not to lose,” KU coach Bonnie Henrickson said. “From an aggressive standpoint, we didn’t attack.

We stopped doing what got us the 11-point lead, and then they turned around and attacked us and scored in transition. I’m really disappointed at how passive we became.

“I called the timeout when Chelsea Gardner hit the jumper because I thought that would give us a little bit of gas, but we just got nothing. We didn’t attack anymore, and that is disappointing.”

Junior guard Natalie Knight had a season-high 20 points for KU, and Hawkins added 12 off the bench.

Donielle Breaux was the only Knight Frog in double figures, with 14 points, but eight of

the 10 TCU players who checked in, scored.

Kansas outshot TCU, 44.4 percent to 36.5. KU also had eight three-pointers to TCU’s five. But Texas Christian outscored Kansas by seven (9-2) at the free-throw line, and KU had 24 turnovers to the Frogs’ 13. KU attempted just four free throws.

“Those type of comebacks don’t come around very often,” TCU coach Jeff Mittle said. “You have to put yourself in position and Max Faulker/AP Photo believe you can make those KANSAS UNIVERSITY FORWARD BUNNY type of comebacks.

A&M QB Manziel declares for NFL Draft The Associated Press

Johnny Football is heading to the NFL. Texas A&M quarterback Johnny Manziel declared for the NFL Draft on Wednesday following two spectacular seasons in which he became the first freshman to win the Heisman Trophy and helped the Aggies make a splash in their

first two years in the Southeastern Conference.

“After long discussions with my family, friends, teammates, and coaches, I have decided to make myself available for the 2014 NFL Draft,” Manziel said in a letter posted online by the university.

“The decision was not an easy one, but we all felt this was the right time to make the next step toward a professional career.”

New York — Greg Maddux, Tom Glavine and Frank Thomas were elected to baseball’s Hall of Fame on Wednesday, while Craig Biggio fell two votes short and tainted stars of the Steroids Era remained far behind.

Maddux was picked on 555 of 571 ballots by senior members of the Baseball Writers’ Association of America.

His 97.2 percentage was the eighthhighest in the history of voting.

Glavine, Maddux’s longtime teammate in the Atlanta rotation, Thomas appeared on 525 ballots and received 91.9 percent.

Thomas, the first Hall of Famer who spent the majority of his career as Maddux a designated hitter, was at 483.

The trio will be inducted in Cooperstown on July 27 along with managers Bobby Cox, Glavine Joe Torre and Tony La Russa, elected last month by the expansion-era committee.

Maddux and Glavine played under Cox for most of their careers.

“It’s exciting for me to go in with my teammate,” Maddux said.

Writers had not elected three players in one vote since Nolan Ryan, George Brett and Robin Yount in 1999.

Biggio received 427 votes and 74.8 percent, matching Nellie Fox in 1985 and Pie Traynor in 1947 for the smallest margin to just miss. Biggio appeared on 388 ballots in his initial appearance last year and appears to be on track to gain election next year.

Mike Piazza was next was 62.2 percent followed by Jack Morris, who was 78 votes short at 61.5 percent in his 15th and final appearance on the writers’ ballot.

Source: Louisville taps Petrino A member of the Louisville board of trustees says Western Kentucky’s Bobby Petrino has accepted an offer to be the Cardinals next head football coach.

Jonathan Blue told the Associated Press Wednesday evening that it’s a “done deal.”

Blue says the University of Louisville Athletic Association will meet this morning and barring any unforeseen issues is expected to approve athletic director Tom Jurich’s recommendation.

Spurs 112, Mavericks 90 San Antonio — Tony Parker scored 25 points and Tim Duncan had 16 points and 13 rebounds, and San Antonio never trailed, cruising past Dallas on Wednesday night.

Marco Belinelli had 17 points, Kawhi Leonard added 12 points and Patty Mills scored 11 for San Antonio (28-8), which recaptured the Western Conference’s best record ahead of Oklahoma City (27-8).

Monta Ellis had 21 points and Vince Carter added 14 points.

No other player scored in double figures as the Mavericks lost their seventh straight to the Spurs.

Dirk Nowitzki was limited to eight points, shooting 3-for-14 and making his only two free throws attempts.

Both teams were on the second night of a back-to-back, with San Antonio winning in overtime at Memphis and the Mavericks topping the Los Angeles Lakers in Dallas.

“I’m really excited that the boys swam well,” Firebirds coach Annette McDonald said. “A lot of people actually did drop time. We set some goals, and I saw a good majority of the kids attain those goals. Now we have to set some new goals so we can reach those.”

Junior Jack Ziegler won the 50-yard and 100-yard freestyles, while setting a personal-best time of 51.99 in the 100.

“I was pretty happy with the meet,” said Ziegler, who earned consideration for the state meet in the 100-yard freestyle. “This isn’t one of the fastest pools, but we had some good times and we had some new guys on the team that really helped boost confidence.

It was a good day.”

Firebirds freshman Chad Bourdon qualified for the state meet in onemeter diving, after entering the year with no diving experience. Although he had state aspirations all along, he said, “This feels a lot better” than he imagined it would.

Junior Nolan Stoppel also earned state consideration in the 50-yard freestyle, while also swimming the second leg in Free State’s .10-second win over Bishop Miege in the 200-yard freestyle relay.

“I think we’re right on schedule,” Terrell said.

“We have some room for improvement, but I think we’re going to get there, and then by the end of the season, we’re going to be right where we want.”

Lawrence High finished in fourth place but was highlighted by its 200-yard medley relay and 200-yard freestyle relay teams, which earned consideration for state with solid times.

“We’re a pretty new team to swimming, and looking at the results, almost everybody improved and it wasn’t just a little bit, it was a lot,” Lions coach Kent McDonald said. “It was surprising actually.”

Lions senior Tristan Hantula shaved nearly five seconds off of his qualifying time during his seventh-place finish in the 200-yard freestyle, while sophomore Chase Odgers and senior Darren Rawlings were able to put up top-10 finishes in the 100-yard freestyle and 50-yard freestyle, respectively.

“It makes me feel good,” said Odgers, who swam the third leg in the 200-yard freestyle relay.

“I’m happy I did good.

I’m even more happy for all of the other kids on the team who even got more drop on their times.”

BRIEFLY canceled their dual against Shawnee Mission Northwest on Jan. 22.

FSHS coach Mike Gillman said Tuesday’s canceled dual against Wyandotte will be rescheduled as a varsity-only dual at a later date.

FSHS bowlers win De Soto meet Free State High’s bowling teams swept victories

at the De Soto Invitational on Wednesday afternoon.

Sophomore Matthew Eagle posted a 589 (192208-189) three-game series total, and junior Eric Glogau put up 566 (180182-204) for the top two individual scores to lead the boys team to a firstplace finish in the threeteam invitational.

Junior Bri Martin topped all girls with a series total of 579 (170205-204).

lacked confidence a little bit coming in. It was nice to see a freshmen step up and basically give us confidence early on. That was about as well as we executed half-court offense all year in the first half.”

Selden was mighty motivated after failing to score in double figures since hitting for 10 points against New Mexico four games ago.

“I feel I wasn’t playing the best I could play personally. I feel my teammates and coaches kept encouraging me. I wanted to start off the Big 12 season playing a little bit better,” Selden said.

Selden scored eight points and Perry Ellis (22 points, 11 rebounds) two in an 10-5 run to open the second half and give KU a 60-49 lead. Selden also

had perhaps the inspirational play of the night when he dove for a loose ball, tied it up and called a timeout with 6:04 left, KU up, 78-74.

“That’s just Kansas basketball, that’s what I think,” Selden said.

“We’re trying to start out Big 12 play on the right foot. We said, ‘We’ve got to go after all loose balls and pick up our defensive intensity.’”

Self, who had been seeking plays like that during a stretch in which the Jayhawks (10-4, 1-0) had won four of eight games, applauded the effort on the play.

“We attempted to take several charges tonight.

We got on the floor a lot,” Self said. “The play where Wayne dove, Perry dove first, and Wayne followed it up.

“We showed Aaron Craft’s play to our team 30 times last night.”

Ohio State point guard Craft had a similar play in

which he dove for a loose ball Tuesday and tied it up versus Michigan State.

“We haven’t been getting that type of energy and effort, not because they are not trying,” Self said. “For whatever reason, we’ve been playing handcuffed and have not been able to let it go. That was some guys letting it go tonight. I was really happy with that.”

Naadir Tharpe, who had three fouls the first half, scored six points and Selden one as KU led, 85-79, at 2:41. Next, Tharpe (17 points, three assists) hit two free throws at 1:06, giving KU an 87-81 advantage. And he hit two more charities at :39.9 as KU led, 89-83, holding off the Sooners (12-3, 1-1). Cameron Clark led OU with 32 points off 10-of-18 shooting.

Also for KU, Andrew Wiggins had nine points off 2-of-9 shooting, while freshman Conner Frankamp scored five

NOTEBOOK

Embiid makes a spectacle of himself

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Norman, Okla. — Joel Embiid’s vision was hindered a bit by the goggles he wore to protect a swollen left eye on Wednesday in Noble Center.

“Yes, it was (hard to see). I knew it’d be hard,” Embiid, Kansas University’s 7-foot freshman from Cameroon, said after scoring six points off 2-of-4 shooting (he was 2-for-2 from the line) and grabbing six rebounds while playing 19 minutes in the Jayhawks’ 90-83 victory over Oklahoma.

“I got them yesterday.

I’ve got to keep them on,” he added of wearing eyegear in upcoming practices and Saturday’s home game against Kansas State. “I can see.

There’s no major injury or whatnot. I can see.”

He took a shot from Hunter Mickelson while going for a rebound at practice earlier this week.

“I was trying to go for a rebound. I got hit. I don’t remember. I think it was an elbow, but it wasn’t intentional,” Embiid said.

Self said the goggles were being used as a “precautionary measure” in case Embiid gets hit again.

OU came away with four points off two technical shots and two free throws following a foul on Andrew Wiggins.

“Nothing’s been finalized yet. I know there have been advanced talks,” Self said. “Certainly, we are very excited about the possibility of having a housing situation that would be comparable to what a lot of our competitors have right now. We also are dealing with the generosity of boosters who want to make this a reality. I don’t see how this would be in any way shape or form negative toward the school. All it would do would enhance housing opportunities for some student-athletes and also some people who aren’t student-athletes because of the NCAA 51-percent requirement (athletes living with non-athletes on campus).” l

“He hadn’t had a chance. I hadn’t given him a chance,” Self said, explaining the size of opponents made some games tough fits for the freshman. “He delivered.”

Tharpe said he suggested to Self after the half ended that it would be a good idea to keep riding Frankamp to keep his confidence heading up.

“I thought he played so well to end the half,” Self said of Frankamp. “Somebody asked me if we were going to start Frank (in the second half). I said, ‘No, we’ll go with Frankamp because he played so well the first half.’ I knew we’d need Naa down the stretch.

We didn’t want him to get his fourth (foul).”

In reserve of Tharpe, Mason’s a better defender, a better finisher at the hoop, but the quicker Frankamp develops, the more options Self will have to choose from based on the opponents.

Frankamp explained his ticket to Wednesday’s opportunity: “I’m

trying to not make any turnovers and focus on the defensive end as well.

I’ve improved quite a bit (defensively in practice) from when I first started.”

One big night can make a big difference in a young player’s confidence. The fact it came in the conference opener gives Frankamp a chance to purge his nonconference numbers and reset the calculator in his brain to Big 12 only, just a week after New Year’s Day. “I’ve kind of been in a slump, but hopefully tonight got me out of it, and I can improve from here,” he said.

Coach Lon Kruger’s Sooners play faster, with more drives and fewer patterns involving multiple passes than in past years. The Sooners play man-to-man defense as well. It was a style against which Kansas prefers to play. Still, winning on the road in such a tough conference and seeing a freshman grow more comfortable can only help the confidence of a young bunch that was in need of a boost in that area.

Dear Annie: I have been married to my second wife for 20 years. We dated for two years, and she became impatient with my reluctance to get married.

We both wanted kids, but her timetable was different than mine.

Even though I was old enough to know better (46), I married her because she got pregnant.

I am positive that she did it intentionally.

We are different. She has tried to sabotage my relationship with our two children who are now in their late teens.

In spite of her efforts, I have a good relationship with my son. But my younger daughter is another story. She is like her mother: a spoiled brat. I know I am partly responsible for the way she’s turned out. I would like to create a loving relationship before she goes

The first one should be with your wife. You are resentful, and it’s obvious that you don’t actually like her. Although you may have good reason, your children undoubtedly see it and react accordingly. And finally, how you relate to your wife affects

Miniseries spoof partly amusing With appropriate hype, IFC presents “The Spoils of Babylon” (9 p.m.). This multipart parody sends up overblown, lavishly produced and frenetically promoted miniseries of the 1970s and ‘80s like “Rich Man, Poor Man,” “The Thorn Birds,” ‘‘Shogun” and “The Winds of War.” ‘‘Babylon” sports an impressive cast of performers. Almost unrecognizable under a fake beard, Will Ferrell plays Eric Jonrosh, the delusional and pompous author and director of “Babylon,” a TV movie said to have taken three years (1976-79) to make; it was cut from its original 22- hour running time.

The story touches all bases.

There is forbidden love, sudden riches, dynastic intrigue and betrayal set against a decade-bydecade sweep of 20th-century history.

Look for Tim Robbins as Jonas, the oil patch patriarch; Tobey Maquire as his adopted son, Devon; and Kristen Wiig as Jonas’ daughter, Cynthia, who has semi- incestuous feelings for her brother. Val Kilmer, Michael Sheen, Jessica Alba, Haley Joel Osment and others round out what they used to call “an all-star cast” for this effort, produced by the people behind the “Funny Or Die” comedy website.

Steve Lawrence even croons the absurd, spot-on theme song. ‘‘Babylon” is sporadically amusing. But a little ridiculous dialogue and overwrought acting goes a long way. “The Carol Burnett Show” used to send up old movies. But her curtain-rod take on “Gone With the Wind” was an affectionate sight gag, not a belabored three-hour recreation.

The funniest part of “Babylon” is the mock documentary about the making of the fake movie. It’s perfect in every detail. And mercifully short. “Babylon” would probably be best appreciated in three-minute installments.

Dear Annie: My 67-year-old mother is an alcoholic. Two years ago, she was diagnosed with dementia. Mom is now on medication for depression and high blood pressure and is living with my sister “Shannon.”

I have seven siblings.

When Shannon needs a break, my brothers and I take turns with Mom on the weekends.

Mom wanders off while Shannon is at work and catches a ride with strangers to get alcohol.

t takes no stretch of the imagination to see how British culture has had an effect on American culture. Have you heard of the shows â&#x20AC;&#x153;Downton Abbeyâ&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;Doctor Whoâ&#x20AC;??

Or perhaps that little group called The Beatles rings a bell?

Yes, we Americans seem to have a keen fascination with British lifestyle, music and even British royalty. Must I remind you of the event that took place July 22, 2013? Hereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a hint: Google â&#x20AC;&#x153;George Alexander Louis.â&#x20AC;? For those of you who know all of the references Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve just made, letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s throw a highfive in the air for our local source of all-things British: Brits!

Located downtown, Brits is Lawrenceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;purveyor of British goods.â&#x20AC;? This store has been in existence since 1995 and specializes in British food, including chocolate, tea and more. While Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve stopped by this shop on occasion to pick up tea (the selection is truly unmatched), I recently took a few minutes to appreciate the lovely craftsmanship of the pottery items, the quirkiness of the pop culture knickknacks, and the impressive collection of rental DVDs. Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s start with the food items. Beyond basic preserves and biscuits (which are expected), Brits also has sections of â&#x20AC;&#x153;grub,â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;scram,â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;tin foodsâ&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;baking,â&#x20AC;? with lots of breakfast items, cooking ingredients and condiments. They also have a cooler for cold, perishable items such as drinks, cheeses and more.

Brits also offers some of the finer items that are closely

associated with the English, such as exquisite tea pots and delicate tea cups. The assortment of tea pots and cups is almost as extensive as their variety of teas! It certainly made me daydream of hosting a fancy-schmancy tea party and practicing my British accent. Do you fancy one lump or two?

Of course, Brits also hosts a wonderful selection of â&#x20AC;&#x153;Doctor Whoâ&#x20AC;? items (including a blazer styled after the one Matt Smith wore on the show), an astounding amount of souvenirs dressed in the British flag, and adorable Big Ben and doubledecker bus gifts â&#x20AC;&#x201D; not to mention a sweet baby blue celebratory mug with George Alexander Louisâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; date of birth.

“Finally Is There a SOLUTION for my Agonizing Foot And Leg Pain!”

Lawrence, KS. If you’re been told there’s nothing that can be done about your foot pain, read on…

If you suffer from: • Burning Pain • Leg Cramping • Sharp Electrical-Like Pain • Pain When You Walk • Difficulty Sleeping from Leg and Foot Discomfort • Prickling or Tingling of the Feet or Hands

We also have Medical Treatments that are designed to help patients daily become pain free and symptom free!

We have several therapy modalities designed to help reduce and eliminate the numbness, tingling and burning.

Some patients whose pain would get worse at nighttime, finally have their first restful night in years.

Come in and discover the answers that we may have for you.

Just recently, a patient came in with severe sharp pain and numbness in his feet and now he does not have ANY numbness or sharp pain!!

Another patient said he thought before these treatments that his leg would have to be amputated!!

Then I’d like to personally invite you into our office for a FREE 7-Point Pain Evaluation! Now you might ask, “Why would a Medical Office give away a FREE 7-Point Pain Evaluation?”

Primary Care Family Doctors have told our patients, “Whatever you are doing is working...keep doing it.”

Well, allow me to explain.

In our office, we see patients who suffer from excruciating pain, throbbing, burning, stabbing and/or tingling in their feet and legs.

Many of these patients have usually been told that there is nothing that can be done for them, or they have been given drug therapy, which hasn’t helped them.

with a very painful foot problem and gone to numerous doctors and the problem never got any better. I can't tell you how much better I feel after a few treatments. For the first time in years I don't feel the pain I had to live with for so long. R. L. Age 57 “My feet have nerve damage and hurt badly. I suffered with these problems with little relief from Doctors treatments."

"Since I have been going for treatments my feet do not swell

and burn with pain as before. My foot therapy is helping my over all physical activities that I could not do before I found out about this treatment. Patient - D.B. - Age 71 “I had somewhat numb feet and sharp pian. The experience has been great. I now have NO sharp pain and the numbness has gotten better. The staff have been great. A real experience."Patient - B.S. Age 81

Now it’s your turn to see if our Leg and Foot Pain Relief Treatment will help you to reduce or eliminate your foot or leg pain, like it’s done for so many other patients!

Typically, these patients come to us very skeptical that we can even help them.

For a limited number of callers (we are limiting this to the first 27 callers due to the response to this type of offer), we are now offering our unique 7-Point FREE Evaluation.

So to alleviate any undue stress, we tell them this, "Have a complete 7 point Nerve Analysis on Us, Absolutely FREE!"

Call our office right away to qualify for one of the 27 FREE appointments.

You see, we want to show you, just like we have shown these other patients, that we offer real solutions in our office that may help you become pain-free and/or free of your numbness and tingling...and we want to demonstrate that to you without you having to worry if you will be wasting money.

How do we get these results?

Well, first of all, we get to the bottom of the problem.

We perform a complete Nerve Analysis and then we will explain to you why you are having this problem in the first place and what you may be able to do to help reverse this degenerative nerve disease and maybe eliminate your numbness,tingling and pain.

Due to Federal Law some exclusions may apply.

Our patient, Judy said: Before I started treatment I wanted to chop my legs and feet off. That is how bad it was. Now I can live a lot better with a lot less pain.

The Therapeutic portion of our treatment in our office is very relaxing...and some of our patients fall asleep during this part of the treatment.

Who Else wants these results?

One female patient reported that "After my first treatment I felt so good that it was like night and day." I would recommend this treatment to anyone suffering from Neuropathy!

Here’s what other patients have said about the treatments: “For the past 15 years I've been living in pain. I've suffered

Our staff will get you in as soon as possible, so…

pulling off purple Blend Radiant Orchid, the color of the year, into your outfit, makeup

By Nadia imafidoN niMafidon@lJWorld.coM

Lawrence, please don’t flip. Pantone has revealed the official 2014 color of the year as Radiant Orchid, the color that should be warmly welcomed into the home, wardrobe and beauty regime.

Say it with me: Radiant Orchid. Don’t stray after hearing that it is a member of the Lawrence-loathed purple family. It’s Radiant Orchid. No other name shall be spoken here in crimson-and-blue country.

“Radiant Orchid reaches across the color wheel to intrigue the eye and spark the imagination,” said Leatrice Eiseman, executive director of the Pantone Color Institute, in a press release.

Sports affiliations aside, the color purple is symbolic for royalty and creativity, which is why Pantone feels strongly about the radiant appeal of this year’s selection. The name alone is enchanting and exotic. Maybe if we all gave it a chance to speak its piece, this color would have much to offer.

Mike Yoder/Journal-World Photo Radiant Orchid says “captivating, magiGlowinG outfits. Pantone’s 2014 color of the year is Radiant Orchid, which can be hard to incorporate into your cal and enigmatic,” according to Pantone, daily clothing/makeup regime. Saffees, 911 Massachusetts St., put together these outfits as an example of blending the a world-renowned authority on color and color in and using it as an accent.

Ways to Wear it

Think vibrant accents, not purple people eater.

Reflected in the name is the color’s ability to bring out rosy undertones of the skin and give both men and women a healthy glow.

Treat the piece of Radiant Orchid clothing as a focal point and build upon the outfit with neutral tones from there, said Whitney Ball, salesperson at Saffees, 911 Massachusetts St. This includes black, grays, white, khaki and navy.

Nothing else should be fighting to overpower this already attention-grabbing color. In large quantities, dress down with plain colors, not patterns.

“It’s your accessory,” said Ball, about a striking Radiant Orchid button-down shirt, brand new in the store. “You’d dress it with jeans and boots, and wear it as a jacket over a white shirt.”

Orchid-colored jeans is another expressive, yet simple incorporation, as colored jeans have been in fashion for long enough that it doesn’t turn heads for the wrong reasons. Do not by any means match the top to a bottom in the same shade, Ball said. Throw touches of this harmonious hue throughout the ensemble with accessories, like subtle earrings, necklaces or detailing on shoes.

Radiant Orchid can also be found in patterns, a spring maxi dress at Envy, 911 Massachusetts St., with the color boldly zig-zagged across the fabric along with white and tones of pink.

“The goal is to not overwhelm the eye,” said salesperson Emmalee Squires.

“I’d tone it down with a white cardigan and neutral accessories.”

Even the menswear at Weaver’s, 901 Massachusetts St., has a bright pink tie, polka-dotted with our favorite new charming color. Weaver’s salesman Nick Hayes recommended a simple gray slimfit suit, and a white or blue oxford shirt, with black shoes.

DRESS FOR WINTER Britches offers versatile frocks great for layering

E

ven with the holidays behind us and a new year ahead, there’s still room for a little sparkle as we finish out the winter season. Whether it is a winter wedding you have to attend, a blacktie event, or even a small dinner party, it’s always a good idea to have a wintery dress in your wardrobe.

When I think of winter dresses, I imagine metallic finishes, sequins, bold patterns, darker tones and anything that sparkles. Britches, 843 Massachusetts St., has a wide variety of winter frocks that can be versatile enough for dressy or casual occasions.

Elizabeth and I searched for a wintery dress that would not only be fabulous on its own, but also a great layering piece. We’re always searching for pieces that can serve more than one purpose — that way you can get the most mileage out of that piece and you don’t feel like you are throwing money away. We found a shimmery metallic dress that was definitely suitable for winter events.

It was made of a lightweight material and had a structured fit.

My favorite thing about this dress was the gold metallic finish and quality of material. It’s the type of dress that you can sit in for hours and it won’t wrinkle. I already had on a basic black turtleneck T-shirt, so I decided to layer the dress over the turtleneck based on the freezing temperatures we’ve had to endure.

The dress could also be worn sans turtleneck and black tights. I acces-

sorized with a belt and a statement necklace to dress it up a little more.

Like I said, Britches has endless dress options, so my search didn’t stop there. We also spotted a chevron print shirt-dress that was constructed with a lightweight chiffon fabric, and paired it with a bold necklace. You could dress this up with tights, heels and a wool coat for any winter outing.

As the weather becomes more tolerable, you could toss out the tights and go for a more casual look of flats and a light jacket.

I love a bold print because it can be worn pretty much any time of the year. This chevron dress can easily be transitioned into your spring wardrobe so, again, you’re getting the most out of it.

resolutions for plants

I

have two new year’s resolutions: one, to have my garden so nice that the Master Gardeners will beg to feature it at the next Garden Tour; and two, next year I will have an Arnold Schwarzenegger body. It may not be so much that I start — but rather quit — doing some things, and now is a good time.

CLUELESS WATERING

Make a promise not to drown your plants. This applies to houseplants, annuals, perennials, turf and young trees. Too much water, too little water, plant symptoms look the same and production decreases.

Research each plant’s moisture requirements and water accordingly. Some like it dry — others like wet feet.

GLUTTONY IS A SIN

Stop the haphazard fertilization and quit overfeeding. Plants produce energy from sunshine. Plant nutrients, including fertilizers, allow this production to happen. Too much food at the wrong time is detrimental.

Dormant plants and those suffering from drought do not want food. Most plants need a little stress to promote flower and fruit production. Overeating in us produces fat.

Overfeeding plants gives an increase in vegetative growth and less fruit. A well-balanced feeding schedule is the recommendation.

An exception is organic material. I am not sure you can ever have enough added organic material.

Organic material is the fruit and vegetables of plant food.

STOP YOUR SITE ASSUMPTIONS

you own. Planted outside these specifications, plants may survive but will not produce to our expectations.

We are now in Climate Zone 6, having to do with temperature ranges. Plants that have not grown up in or naturalized to this zone may suffer. A crepe myrtle tree in Georgia becomes a woody shrub in Kansas. Always check the plant label or trusted reference.

STOP APPLYING RANDOM CHEMICALS

Read the label. Look for what issues the chemical (even organic) is good for.

Full sun plants must have 6-8 hours of direct sunWeed killers won’t kill bugs and bug killers light per day. Shade plants only want indirect sun, won’t help leaf spot. Too little of the recommend all day. So-called sun/shade plants? Now you are on mixture may not work and just be a waste of

money. Too much chemical may not work either and be an even larger waste of money. Apply at the right time. Treat weeds when they are actively growing, insects when they are young, and fungus before the damage. Identify the real problem before any application.

Most importantly, read the label.

I probably won’t make the Tour, but doing all these things will get me into an also-ran category.

The Arnold Schwarzenegger thing? Well, that’s just out.

Plants wait out the darkest days

BY LEE REICH ASSOCIATED PRESS

Plants and people can’t help but feel a bit wan this time of year, but things are brightening up already. Every day the sun is gradually moving higher in the sky, burning with increasing intensity and duration.

Light is measured in foot-candles — the amount of light cast on a square foot area by a candle at 1 foot distance — and the sun on a clear summer day can bathe us in 10,000 foot-candles. Contrast that with the paltry 500 foot-candles dribbling down on an overcast winter day.

Houseplants’ problems are further compounded by windows, which cut sunlight by another 10 percent. No wonder these plants, if they are growing at all, stretch for light this time of year.

There are ways you can help them.

One is to clean your windows. Any dirt on the glass cuts down light. While you’re at it, dust or spritz off your plants’ leaves; dust has the same ill effect.

Fortunately, many houseplants hail from the shade of tropical jungles. Still, flowering and fruiting take energy, which comes ultimately from the sun, so if you want flowers or fruits from such plants as Jerusalem cherry, flowering maple, citrus and miniature roses, you have to arrange for abundant light. Otherwise these plants will just stay alive, might even grow, but will not flower and fruit.

HOW BRIGHT IS YOUR WINDOW?

How much light is enough? Most flowering and fruiting plants need 1,000 or more foot-candles, although some, such as African violet, rex begonia, flowering maple, zebra plant and crown-of-thorns, will provide colorful displays even at about 500 foot-candles. Below that level, stick strictly to foliage plants such as cast iron plant, Swiss cheese plant, baby’stears, parlor palm, pothos and ferns.

You can translate those needed foot-

candles into light measured by a digital SLR camera. Set it on aperture priority with the aperture at f/8 and the ISO at 100. Hold a white sheet of paper so that whatever light you’re measuring falls directly on it, and measure the shutter speed reading that the camera gives you (without a flash) for a good picture from about a foot away. Multiply the shutter speed times 4 for the approximate foot-candles.

(Shutter speed is usually expressed as a fraction of a second, so a speed of “500” is really 1/500th of a second; for foot-candles, you’d multiply 500 times 4 for 2,000 foot-candles. If light is very dim, the shutter speed might be more than a second; no need to measure, in that case, because in such light any plant will barely stay alive.)

Take measurements at various locations and times of day; you’ll probably be surprised at how little light falls near even a bright window.

If such exactitude is not your style, just gauge light by window direction. A southfacing window is brightest, followed by east and west-facing windows, with north windows being the darkest. Any obstruction — even a leafless tree — will reduce light levels, as will moving a plant back from a window.

Better Health Stressed, Late or Overworked?

Stress has a negative connotation but it may be helpful in small doses. It can give us the energy to complete projects or meet deadlines. Too much stress, on the other hand, can cause a variety of issues.

According to the National Institutes of Health, long-term stress can increase the risk of depression, heart disease and often contribute to a variety of other health problems.

What is Stress?

The American Psychological Association categorizes stress into three distinct types including acute stress, episodic acute stress and chronic stress.

Acute Stress This is the most common form of stress. It can appear at any time and is highly treatable. It occurs most frequently when a variety of life events pile up.

An example is a looming deadline at work, your child’s issue at school, an argument with your spouse coupled with an expensive car repair. A person experiencing this type of stress may experience these symptoms: t Emotional distress, a combination of anger or irritability, anxiety and depression. t Muscular problems including a tension headache, back pain, jaw pain and muscular tension. These can lead to pulled muscles and tendon and ligament problems. t Stomach, gut and bowel problems such as heartburn, acid stomach, flatulence, diarrhea, constipation and irritable bowel syndrome. t Elevation in blood pressure, rapid heartbeat, sweaty palms, heart palpitations, dizziness, migraine headaches, cold hands or feet, shortness of breath or chest pain.

12

Episodic Acute Stress People who experience this type of stress are frequently in a state of acute stress. They always take on too much, have too many projects going and are consistently taking on additional responsibilities.

Individuals who experience this type of stress are often over aroused, short-tempered, irritable, anxious and tense.

People who are “worry warts” experience episodic acute stress. These people are often convinced that there is a disaster around every corner. The symptoms of episodic acute stress are the symptoms of extended over arousal. They include: t Persistent tension headaches t Migraines

t Hypertension t Chest pain t Heart disease Treating episodic acute stress requires intervention on a number of levels, generally requiring professional help, which may take many months.

Chronic Stress The person who experiences this type of stress often doesn’t see an end to whatever is causing stress.

Stressors can include an unhappy marriage, a difficult job, poverty or a chronic illness. Chronic stress wears the person down and can result in death by heart attack, stroke, suicide, violence, and perhaps, other chronic diseases.

How to Manage Stress Though at times stress can require professional intervention, the National Institutes of Health offers these tips for managing stress. It recommends individuals: t Find the positive in situations and don’t dwell on the negative. t Plan fun activities. t Take regular breaks.

The experts also suggest physical activity as a way to manage stress. Individuals who experience stress should consider: t Starting a physical activity program. Most experts recommend 150-300 minutes per week. You do not have to join a gym. Twenty minutes of brisk walking outdoors is enough. t Decide on a specific type, amount and level of physical activity. Fit this into your schedule so it can be part of your routine. t Exercise with a friend. It is more fun and it will encourage you to stick with your routine.

Eating foods that improve health and well-being can also help the body deal with stressful situations. Ways to improve eating habits include: t Increasing the amount of fruits and vegetables you eat. t Using the food guide plate to help you make healthy food choices. t Eating normal-sized portions on a regular schedule People should also make an effort to socialize. Even though individuals feel tempted to avoid people when stressed, meeting friends usually helps the situation.
