TOPEKA — Employers and post-secondary institutions may soon have minimized access to the Facebook and Twitter accounts of employees or students.

State Rep. Gail Finney, D-Wichita, has introduced three bills — House Bills 2092, 2093 and 2094 — that are each directed at a different aspect of electronic privacy.

Under HB 2092, an employer may not request or demand access to the social media accounts of an employee or potential employee.

Finney said. “However, I just don’t think it’s right.”

HB 2094 would give the same rights to students at public and private colleges and universities.

The third bill aims to protect the identities of social media users by prohibiting someone from creating false accounts on social media websites for the purpose of harassment.

For example, an individual could not identify himself or herself under the name or photo of someone else without consent.

“I’m a Facebook user, a Twitter user, and I see a lot of activity,” Finney said.

“This is a matter of personal privacy.”

Federal report details academic fraud at Haskell

By Shaun Hittle sdhittle@ljworld.com

A recently obtained investigative report from the U.S. Department of Education about Haskell Indian Nations University details broader instances of academic fraud in the school’s athletics department dating back to 2007 than had previously been known.

Allegations surfaced last

May that the school was being investigated by the U.S. Department of Education and the Bureau of Indian Affairs Redman regarding academic problems in the Haskell athletics department.

Haskell officials provided

tion began its investigation into Haskell after a request from the office of the U.S. District Attorney in Kansas in January 2009. The U.S. Attorney’s Office in August 2011 declined to press criminal charges in the case, for reasons that were redacted in the report.

courses have drawn millions from venture capitalists. Aside from a few scattered experiments, though, MOOC students cannot earn college credit.

Universities around the country, including heavyweights Harvard, MIT, Stanford and others, have signed on to jump on the MOOC train.

But don’t look for Kansas University to grab the next ticket, at least not anytime soon.

KU officials say it’s still unclear how the MOOC phenomenon will affect the broader landscape of higher education, and they remain in wait-and-watch mode.

But they acknowledge the trend provides some serious food for thought.

“It’s making higher education think about some things that we need to think about,” said Sara Rosen, KU’s senior vice provost for academic affairs.

‘The Wild West’ Bruce Bertsch of Lawrence enrolled in his first MOOC in May 2012, a few months after the acronym first appeared in the mainstream vernacular.

Bertsch, who works an information-technology job in Kansas City, Mo., wanted to pick up some extra job-related skills. He said he had explored some continuing-education services offered by KU and was underwhelmed.

But when he saw in a TV report that he could take courses on software engineering or statistics from universities such as Stanford, CaliforniaBerkeley and Princeton for free, he jumped in.

“All things being equal, I’d rather use the local institution,” said Bertsch,

who attended classes at KU and other universities but never graduated. “But all things aren’t equal.”

Bertsch has completed two MOOCs and is currently enrolled in three others, all through the company Coursera.

(Coursera and Udacity, both for-profit companies, are among those leading the MOOC charge, along with edX, a nonprofit led

by Harvard, MIT and CalBerkeley.)

Most of the courses he’s taken last about 10 weeks, and they’re all directly related to his job, he said.

Some institutions award certificates for completion; others don’t.

Bertsch said each of the courses has given him new skills, and he plans to mention them on his resume.

“It’s hard to quantify that, but it helped,” Bertsch said.

Why are universities and faculty members willing to give away this kind of knowledge for free?

They may simply believe firmly that access to information should be open to as many people as possible, Rosen said.

“That’s an important principle for a lot of academics,” Rosen said.

Doug Ward, an associate professor of journalism who studies and writes about the use of technology in education, has some other theories: Universities may want to expose their courses to potential students, desire a share of the media attention devoted to MOOCs alongside the Harvards and Stanfords of the world or simply fear being left behind by a new trend.

A few universities have begun offering discounted credits for students who’ve completed MOOCs or charging extra for additional certification.

details about its investigation into Haskell.

The DOE report, which is heavily redacted in parts and does not include the names of specific Haskell employees, included these violations:

Fraudulent ACT scores: Two student-athletes, a football player in 2008 and a football player in 2010, submitted falsified ACT scores in order to remain eligible to play sports.

Fraudulent college course and academic transcripts: A basketball player in 2007 received an “A” for a course the student had not enrolled in until the last week of classes.

Improper payment of college courses by staff: On several occasions, Haskell employees or volunteers paid for community college courses for student athletes whose eligibility was in question.

Student athletes were also able to remain eligible by completing courses through an online college after they had failed Haskell courses.

Allegations that Haskell had been under investigation by the DOE and BIA were reported by an anonymous source to the Journal-World in May, prompting Haskell to release several statements outlining violations.

Haskell President Chris Redman met with the Journal-World in September and discussed the academic violations that led to the school’s athlet-

Timeline of investigation

May 2012: Following a Journal-World inquiry,

Haskell officials issued a news release about a federal investigation involving two student athletes but declined a meeting with the Journal-World.

Also in May, the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics, or the NAIA, said it had not received any reports from Haskell about academic violations.

The NAIA is the athletics conference in which Haskell competes.

September: Haskell sent out a news release outlining violations within its athletics department and reported that its athletics programs were placed on probation by the NAIA through 2014.

November and December: The U.S. Department of Education provided the Journal-World with several sets of documents that outlined an investigation into Haskell.

The investigative documents provided further details about numerous instances of academic fraud at Haskell. ics programs being placed on probation by the NAIA through 2014. Here’s what Redman reported at the time about some of the specific charges:

Academic fraud involved one member of the 2009 men’s basketball team who had taken an online course through another community college and had received additional and fraudulent assistance in the course. Haskell was required to forfeit nine basketball games from the season in which the student had played.

A member of the 2010 football team submitted a fraudulent ACT score upon admission to the school. At some point, the score had been fraudulently altered to enable the player’s athletic eligibility. Redman said it was never determined who altered the score. The school was required to forfeit the one game the player had played in.

However, the Department of Education report

highlighted several instances of academic fraud that were not mentioned

by Redman during his interview with the JournalWorld or in earlier statements from Haskell.

Redman, in a written statement on Jan. 18, said information Haskell had previously released “was specific to the NAIA probation issue,” and the Department of Education report obtained by the Journal-World referred to different issues.

Redman said he had not seen the Department of Education report until he received it from the Journal-World last week.

Redman also said “employees were either no longer at Haskell or were disciplined for the issues relative to the report” and that “additional stopgaps were applied along with other reinforcements of policy.”

lives and works in Lawrence providing private instruction for students with learning disabilities and operating an online kids calendar, ran into one such offer for one of the three MOOCs she began this month.

The Knight Center for Journalism in the Americas, based at the University of Texas, offered a completion certificate for a $30 payment in the MOOC about infographics that she’s taking. McKeon decided it wasn’t worth it.

She’s taking that course mostly for fun, she said.

She’s also taking a Coursera course on growing a small business, for more practical reasons, and another Coursera course called “Science from Superheroes to Global Warming” along with a student she teaches.

She has a bachelor’s degree from Southern Methodist University in Dallas and a master’s from Columbia University in New York.

But these MOOCs, she says, are more self-directed endeavors than a typical college course.

“You’re not paying for it. You’re not getting a grade,” McKeon said. “All the things we relied on in college sort of aren’t there.”

She has faith she’ll stick with the courses she started, but she expects many others will drift off.

Dan Bernstein, a professor of psychology and director of the Center for Teaching Excellence at KU, said figures he’d seen had shown that only about 10 to 15 percent of students completed many MOOCs. This is one of several reasons he’s skeptical that they are quite the revolutionary force some have cracked them up to be.

“No one so far is asking those hard questions of the MOOCs,” Bernstein

said. “They’re just saying, ‘Gee, if 150,000 people showed up, it might be worth something.’”

People have been entranced by the big numbers and “designer-label” names, Bernstein said, but upon closer look there are a lot of questions.

Much recent criticism of higher education, such as in the wave-making 2011 book “Academically Adrift,” has questioned whether colleges and universities are really prompting students to learn on a deep level and develop meaningful skills.

But, Bernstein says, MOOCs do little to address either of those concerns.

Measuring how much students have learned is difficult on such a large scale, and many aren’t finishing.

And research, he said, suggests that the best way for students to learn meaningfully is for them to be directly engaged with their instructors, asking and answering questions and not just sitting back and listening to lectures. But many MOOCs, he said, rely almost solely on video lectures presented by one instructor to tens of thousands of students.

“So the MOOCs are using 21st century technology to deliver mid-20th century education,” Bernstein said. “It’s kind of ironic.”

Hundreds of different courses are available, but no MOOC providers currently offer anything close to a full degree program. And KU officials said they could not imagine they ever would.

Bernstein even said he’s skeptical that MOOCs will even remain free for much longer, as companies move to monetize their product.

McKeon said the lack of a structured program

actually made the MOOC experience a bit more thrilling.

“At this point, it’s just the Wild West out there,” she said.

But she said she was a bit disappointed that the courses didn’t present information more creatively.

“To have access to that information and to these experts is amazing, so I appreciate that enormously,” McKeon said. “But I don’t know if they thought as far outside of the box as they could, given the format.”

Waiting and learning So, do the MOOCs have anything to offer higher education beyond big names and attention-grabbing numbers?

Bertsch said he can’t imagine that an institution like KU, trying to enroll as many students as possible, would be thrilled that elite schools are putting their courses online for free.

“If I were running a traditional institution, it would scare me to death,” Bertsch said.

KU officials say they are far from scared; online classes have already been around for decades, Bernstein said, and the university is working to expand in that area.

But they do say MOOCs raise some important issues that they’ll need to reckon with.

Rosen said a major lesson for her was the impor-

tance of expanding access to higher education, specifically, access for groups beyond 18-year-olds coming out of high school.

“I think a lot of us are watching it carefully, thinking about how we can create different programs that will allow different groups of potential students to enter into higher education,” Rosen said.

That doesn’t mean KU plans to offer any MOOCs, though, she said. It has no plans for that right now.

Ward said he has proposed that KU instructors could use MOOCs as part of a for-credit class, assigning students to view online lectures and then meet in person to discuss questions and doubts.

“It’s almost like a book, in a way,” Ward said.

Rosen said she would encourage creative moves like that.

And innovation in class instruction is definitely a focus for the university, she said. Leaders are encouraging instructors to pursue “flipped” classes that involve online and inperson components, and they’re also determining where KU can expand its for-credit online options.

“It’s an area of focus for us right now,” Rosen said.

“We’ll see in the coming year or two.”

Then last year, Brownback signed into law the creation of a new Kansas Creative Arts Industries Commission with a $700,000 budget and placed under the Kansas Department of Commerce.

But Brownbackâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s budget for the next fiscal year includes only $200,000 for the commission. Democrats say that isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t enough. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The administration has pretty much dropped the ball on the whole issue,â&#x20AC;? said Senate Minority Leader Anthony Hensley, D-Topeka.

The commission held its first meeting last week, more than six months after the new budget was signed into law. Commission members elected Lana Gordon as chair of the commission.

Gordon is a former state legislator from Topeka and Brownbackâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s appointed secretary of labor.

Incentives, property sales and land transfers Town Talk T

here are signs that city of Lawrence officials are circling in on what could be the first tenant in a project to convert the former Farmland Industries fertilizer plant into a business park.

There also are signs that the public may get its first taste of what type of incentives it will take to lure new businesses to the site.

The Lawrence-based software development firm AllofE Solutions has filed paperwork with the city seeking an unspecified job creation incentive and a possible relocation grant to assist with an expansion of the company.

In a letter to city officials, it acknowledges that the Farmland property is one of the sites it is considering for a new building.

AllofE currently is at 2510 W. Sixth St. Based on its website, it looks like the company has software systems to help school districts manage data related to various assessment scores, programs to help universities and school districts manage social media connections with the public, and a program that helps educators manage curriculum and other issues in the growing field of health sciences.

The company has been in business for about 10 years, and was founded and is still led by former Kansas University professor Amit Guha.

Currently the company has about 10 full-time employees in software development marketing, administration and such.

The company has submitted estimates to the city that the company plans to add about four new employees to the company each year for the next 10 years. (Technically, it is 35 full-time employees over 10 years.) The company estimates average salaries for the new positions will be about $45,000 in the beginning years and about $55,000 in the out years.

Details are still emerging on the specifics of the incentives the AllofE is seeking. Britt Crum-Cano, the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s economic development coordinator, told me the request falls into two categories. One is a job creation grant. In other words, the company would be provided a certain amount of money for each new job created in Lawrence.

The second type of incentive could involve either a free building site â&#x20AC;&#x201D; or a greatly reduced price on a site â&#x20AC;&#x201D; for a new office for the company. That site would be at the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s developing business park at the former Farmland Industries property. CrumCano said the company is looking at about a 1.3 acre site for its facility.

Any set of incentives will have to first get a recommendation from the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Public Incentives Review Committee, and then will have to be voted on by the City Commission. CrumCano said she anticipates the incentive requests will be heard by PIRC sometime in February.

6 tips to pay down holiday debt in 2013

age. That means reviewing credit card bills, bank statements, and other accounts to determine how much you owe and how that translates into monthly payments.

Experts also recommend getting a copy of your credit report if you havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t done so in more than a year.

A credit report can help you understand how your debt, and your payment history, will be perceived by potential lenders.

For those who donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have a pile of cash that they can draw upon to pay down their debt, the next best option is to lower the interest charges.

You can ask your credit card issuer to do you the favor, but donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t count on it. A more realistic option is to consolidate your card balances into another card with a lower interest rate.

4. Make a budget, follow it Make a budget of your fixed household expenses, such as your mortgage or rent, utilities, car loan, insurance, and so on. Carve out a realistic amount of money for more variable costs, such as gas, groceries and entertainment.

Once you figure out a monthly plan that allows you to pay down your card debt, even if it means scrimping here and there, stick with it. The key to doing that is to remain on top of expenses.

by Scott Adams

6. Get help Feeling overwhelmed by debt? Counseling agencies approved by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development offer free credit counseling, advice on making a personal budget and dealing with creditors. They can be found on hud.gov.

Hagel takes Ike as role model

EDITORIALS

Worthy honorees Honorees at the recent Lawrence Chamber of Commerce annual meeting might inspire others to greater service to make our community a better place.

A

mid the saturation of daily activities, messages on multiple platforms and the general pace of life today, it’s always inspiring to pause and reflect on some of the special people and institutions in our community. Thanks to the Lawrence Chamber of Commerce for once again providing us such an opportunity Friday evening.

The chamber’s annual meeting featured recognition of three of our neighbors and focused attention, through their particular contributions to Lawrence, on the impact that any individual can have — given the dedication, energy, and intentional involvement and commitment to volunteering time and talent in ways that improve our community.

This year, for perhaps only the third time, a husband and wife were jointly recognized with the Citizen of the Years award, which is the highest honor the organization bestows. Web and Joan Golden are worthy recipients of this lifetime achievement distinction. Sharon Spratt, CEO of Cottonwood Inc., well deserves the Athena Award, which honors individuals for their high levels of professional accomplishment and also for having made important contributions to the community.

The Goldens graduated from Kansas University and moved back to Lawrence in 1972. Web now is a partner at the Stevens & Brand law firm, and Joan is senior vice president at U.S. Bank here.

Joan serves on the Lawrence library board and headed the $1 million capital drive for the library; she also serves on the Lawrence Arts Center board. Web’s a board member at Cottonwood and also at the Douglas County Community Foundation. Over the years they have been actively involved in numerous other community organizations, although Web wryly observed: “My greatest accomplishment for Lawrence was bringing Joan Golden here.”

Spratt moved to Lawrence in 1988 and joined Cottonwood in 1989, becoming its CEO in 1994. Cottonwood helps residents with intellectual disabilities become contributing members of the community. Spratt is active in a number of state and national groups that have similar goals, as well as being involved in other local organizations.

Congratulations to Web and Joan Golden and to Sharon Spratt for the honors bestowed on them Friday. A few moments spent reflecting on the effects they’ve had on our community might inspire us all to do a bit more, to get more involved, and to appreciate the unsung efforts of countless volunteers whose endeavors make Lawrence a special place.

WASHINGTON — Chuck Hagel means it when he describes himself as an “Eisenhower Republican.” He kept a bust of President Dwight Eisenhower in his Senate office for a dozen years, and has a portrait of Ike on the wall of his current office at Georgetown University.

But the most compelling evidence of Hagel’s fascination is that he purchased three-dozen copies of an Eisenhower biography and gave copies to President Obama, Vice President Biden and then-Defense Secretary Bob Gates, according to the book’s author, David Nichols.

The book that so interested Hagel, “Eisenhower 1956,” examines one of the most delicate and dangerous moments of Ike’s presidency. Published in 2011, it’s basically the story of how Eisenhower forced Israel, Britain and France to withdraw from their invasion of the Suez Canal — thereby establishing the United States as the dominant, independent power in the Middle East.

It’s impossible to read Nichols’ book without thinking of recent tensions between the U.S. and Israel over the threat posed by Iran’s nuclear program. Just as Egypt’s mercurial leader Gamal Abdel Nasser posed the pre-eminent threat to Israel in the 1950s, so it is today with Ayatollah Ali Khamenei’s Iran. What’s interesting about Eisenhower is that, while sympathetic to Israel’s defense needs, he was also

“

As the Senate deliberates Hagel’s nomination to be secretary of defense, it should consider the ‘Eisenhower 1956’ narrative carefully.” determined to maintain an independent U.S. policy and avoid a war that might involve the Soviet Union.

“We believe that the power of modern weapons makes war not only perilous — but preposterous,” Eisenhower said on Nov. 1, in his final speech before the 1956 election, which coincided with the Suez crisis and the Soviet invasion of Hungary to put down a revolution there. It truly was the moment that tested the old warrior’s belief that there should be no more war.

As the Senate deliberates Hagel’s nomination to be secretary of defense, it should consider the “Eisenhower 1956” narrative carefully. It’s a useful guide to how Hagel thinks about American power in the Middle East — and it

explains ideas he has shared with the top U.S. policymakers, Obama and Biden.

Many themes come together at Suez: the falling empires of Britain and France; the rising global hegemony of the United States; the turmoil of the Arab world; and the assertive, unpredictable role of an Israel that, then as now, saw itself fighting for its life amid hostile Muslim nations.

Eisenhower had been watching the Middle East with foreboding since he became president in 1953. He said in a January 1956 news conference the U.S. should pursue an Arab-Israeli policy that was “above politics” and encouraged “some kind of friendship, at least cooperation between the two sides.” This gauzy idea of evenhandedness would be severely tested.

Ike said in a March 29, 1956, letter to Winston Churchill that the Middle East was “the most important and bothersome of the problems that currently confront our nations.” His anxiety increased in July, when Nasser nationalized the Suez Canal.

The British, French and Israelis — unbeknownst to Eisenhower and his advisers — were secretly plotting to roll back Nasser’s control of Suez. Their tripartite alliance, code-named “Operation Musketeer,” was formalized in an Oct. 24 secret protocol that specified that Israel would invade the Sinai Peninsula five days later. The three collaborators designed

what Nichols calls “smoke screens” to conceal their plans from the U.S. When the Israeli invasion came on Oct. 29, a week before the U.S. election, Eisenhower was irate. He told Secretary of State John Foster Dulles: “Foster, you tell ‘em, God-damnit, that we’re going to apply sanctions, we’re going to the United Nations, we’re going to do everything that there is so we can stop this thing.” The U.S, did, indeed, win a ceasefire resolution at the U.N., despite opposition from Britain, France and Israel.

Eisenhower took a political risk. He was blasted by his Democratic rival, Adlai Stevenson, who charged on Nov. 1 that if the U.S. had acted more forcefully to support Israel, it might have avoided war. But Ike prevailed, winning reelection, forcing the attackers to withdraw from the canal, and enunciating a strategy for U.S.-led security in the region that came to be known as the “Eisenhower Doctrine.”

How does this story apply to modern-day Israel and America — especially for an Obama administration that, while committed to preventing Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons, devoutly hopes to avoid military action? The parallels are impossible to draw precisely, but it matters that the cautious and fiercely independent Eisenhower is a role model for the prospective future defense secretary.

OLD HOME TOWN

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for Jan. 28, 1913: “The Jayhawker Basketball Team will make YEARS its first campaign into the AGO territory of the enemy this IN 1913 week. The goal squad will go to Topeka on Thursday to meet the Washburn quintette in a return game and then go out to Manhattan for a pair of games with the Aggies on Friday and Saturday. The Kansas team is in very good shape for the trip. The men see another victory over the Sons of Ichabod, but they have a wholesome respect for the playing of the Aggies and are rather dubious regarding the result of the games on the Aggie court. Kansas lost two games to the Manhattan five last week and these defeats came with the Hamiltonians playing on their own court.”

U.S.-Israeli tensions remain strong Here’s a pop quiz for those who have been too busy to notice the surprising results of last week’s Israeli election: Was the key issue (1) Prime Minister Benjamin “Bibi” Netanyahu’s testy relationship with President Obama; (2) whether Israel should bomb Iran’s nuclear sites; or (3) whether to revive the mummified peace process?

Answer: None of the above.

Issues of war and peace had little to do with the sliding support for Netanyahu’s right-wing coalition. (He’ll still be prime minister but will have to work hard to woo new coalition partners.) Nor did these issues propel the rise of the new centrist star, Yair Lapid, a young, attractive TV personality whose new party came in an unexpected second. The newcomer’s big issue was his promise to halt subsidies and military exemptions granted to thousands of ultrareligious Israelis.

This is further evidence that Israelis have lost faith in the peace process and are focused on domestic problems.

But now that the Israeli (as well as the U.S.) election season is over, those sidelined issues will force themselves back to the fore.

The Israeli press is already speculating about how Netanyahu can repair his famously strained relations with Obama.

“Netanyahu’s support for Mitt Romney was a mistake,” the prominent Yediot Aharonot columnist Nahum Barnea said

Trudy Rubin

“

trubin@phillynews.com

When it comes to the Israeli-Palestinian peace process, the breach is even more evident.”

in a conference call organized by the Israel Policy Forum.

“He believed a Romney victory would increase the chance of a U.S. attack on Iran and decrease the pressure on the Israel-Palestinian issue. Now he has no option (but to) deal with Barack Hussein Obama.”

Barnea continued: “Bibi will do his best to soothe Obama without any concessions.” Israelis are already speculating about what role the untried Lapid might play in repairing the breach.

But the tensions between Jerusalem and Washington won’t be easily soothed. Despite Obama’s strong military and diplomatic support for Israel, Netanyahu openly challenged him on Iran at the United Nations in September.

Israel argues that even if it has to attack alone, Iran must be prevented from developing

the capacity to build a nuclear weapon, which the Israeli leader projected would happen by spring. Obama, rightly reluctant to start another preemptive war, puts a redline at preventing Iran from actually building a weapon.

Whether the Israeli election results will change Netanyahu’s calculation isn’t clear yet. Some of his possible coalition partners have argued strongly against a solo Israeli attack on Iran.

When it comes to the Israeli-Palestinian peace process, the breach is even more evident. The White House knows the current Mideast turmoil makes a peace accord unlikely in the near term, as do the weakness of Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas and the positions of Hamas, which controls Gaza.

But Netanyahu’s promotion of Jewish settlement building on the West Bank and in East Jerusalem virtually rules out a two-state solution in the long term. It also isolates Israel internationally and puts the onus for stalled talks on Jerusalem.

A stunning report by the Israeli group Peace Now (available at peacenow.org) details the vast new settlement construction under Netanyahu in isolated areas of the West Bank — as opposed to the settlement blocs that Israel has said it wants to keep under a peace agreement. Netanyahu has moved to “legalize” many

illegal outposts whose removal is called for by international accords signed by Israel.

Whether the new Israeli government will take on the settlement issue is doubtful.

Netanyahu’s own Likud party has moved rightward. His coalition will probably include a new party that advocates annexing the West Bank. And he promised that no settlement would be removed if he were elected.

Much will depend on whether some of the partners Netanyahu woos for his coalition make settlements an issue. But even if they do, Bibi may not oblige. If not, the settlement issue will remain a thorn in U.S.-Israeli relations.

When the U.N. Security Council voted last fall to condemn Israel for settlements, the United States was one of only eight countries siding with Israel. Obama got no thanks: Soon afterward, Netanyahu advanced plans — opposed by several U.S. presidents — to build in an area of the West Bank that would cut the territory off from Arab East Jerusalem, the site Palestinians seek for their capital.

Yet consider this: “Israel (now) depends more on the United States than ever,” said Barnea. “Israel is more and more isolated in Europe, as relations gradually deteriorate towards a boycott which could endanger the economy of Israel.”

KANSAS BASKETBALL

Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

A look at best NCAA coaches Now that this is the 10th season since the coaching dominoes rippled shortly after Roy Williams used a bad word talking to Bonnie Bernstein on national TV, it’s a good time to see which college basketball coaches have made the most noise in the NCAA Tournament since the shake-up.

Three coaches are responsible for six of the nine national championships since Williams departed Kansas, making room for Bill Self.

UConn’s Jim Calhoun, in his first year of retirement, won titles in 2004 and 2011, Williams in 2005 and 2009.

Florida’s Billy Donovan won back-to-back titles (20062007). Self (2008), Duke’s Mike Krzyzewski (2010) and Kentucky’s John Calipari (2012) each won one title during the nine-year stretch.

But using a national-titleor-bust mentality in trying to quantify which coach has given his school’s fan base the most rewarding experience isn’t the best measuring stick. A fan spends more time clinging to realistic hope of a title than actually relishing those won. It’s not all about reaching the finish line and looking back. It’s about enjoying the tourney journey, too. The longer it lasts, the more enjoyable.

Tournament victory totals paint a more complete picture.

An unofficial check of the last nine NCAA tournaments reveals that 16 coaches, including the retired Calhoun, have reached double figures in victories the past nine seasons.

The coaches with doublefigures NCAA Tournament victory totals the past nine seasons, ranked in reverse order so as to build the drama toward the top dogs: 16. Jim Boeheim (Syracuse) 10-7: Since winning his national title against Kansas in 2003, Boeheim has made it as far as the Elite Eight just once, last season.

13t. Rick Barnes (Texas) 11-9: The Longhorns finally won a Big 12 game Saturday, and they’re gaining valuable experience that should get them back in the hunt for mid-March victories in 2014.

13t. Jamie Dixon (Pittsburgh) 11-8: His Panthers usually are good for a tourney victory or two, and his name often surfaces in discussions about the best coaches seeking a first appearance in the Final Four.

13t. Brad Stevens (Butler) 11-5: He makes the club despite having just five seasons to earn the victories, 10 of which came in back-toback trips (2010-2011) to the title game, an extraordinary achievement for the unflappable young coach.

12. Jay Wright (Villanova) 12-7: Hasn’t won an NCAA Tournament game since 2010, but what a week for the Wildcats. They knocked off Louisville and then Syracuse.

11. Bo Ryan (Wisconsin) 13-9: Bo knows how to get open shots for his big men blessed with soft touches.

“My dad (Charlie, long-time high school coach in Gnadenhutten, Ohio) quit because the losing affected him so much,” Huggins said. “If you go back, they played an 18-game regular-season schedule. He averaged over 20 wins for his career, so he didn’t lose much.

“It’s hard. It’s like Saturday (in 79-52 loss at Purdue on Jan. 19). They take us off CBS (cut away late in game). We’ve done things I’ve never had anybody do. I’ve never had a team not compete like that.

“We’ve got guys jogging down the floor. At this time of year, I’ve never had to do that before (get on his players for lack of hustle). It was always ingrained. It’s been a struggle to ingrain how hard you have to compete. When you are the 21stworst shooting team in America (39.5 percent), you’ve got to play hard.

OWINGS MILLS, MD. (AP) — It was as if linebacker Ray Lewis, safety Bernard Pollard and the rest of the Baltimore Ravens’ defense set out to provide a quarter-byquarter demonstration of how they do business.

About 11 minutes into the AFC championship game against Tom Brady and the New England Patriots, Lewis drew a 15-yard unnecessary roughness penalty for a helmet-to-helmet hit that pushed tight end Aaron Hernandez’s chin strap up near his nose.

Then, in the second quarter, line- SUPER backer DanSUNDAY nell Ellerbe gave New Who: BaltiEngland an- more vs. San other free Francisco 15 yards by hitting an of- When: 5:30 fensive line- p.m., Sunday man in the Where: New face mask in Orleans response to TV: CBS an after-the- (Knology play shove. chs. 5, 13, F a s t - f o r - 205, 213) ward to early in the third, and Pollard was flagged for his team’s third personal foul of the day, thanks to a leaping hit against the helmet of receiver Wes Welker. Two plays later, Welker dropped a third-down pass.

And finally, a couple of minutes into the fourth, Pollard struck again. No penalty was called this time, but his helmet-to-helmet hit on Stevan Ridley resulted in a fumble and left the running back on his back, looking limp and helpless. Ridley left the game with a head injury, while the Ravens recovered the football and were on their way to next Sunday’s Super Bowl against the equally aggressive San Francisco 49ers.

In an age of high-powered offenses in the NFL — this season’s games featured 45.5 points, the highest average since 1965 — and increasingly safety-conscious officials, a pair of hard-hitting, oft-penalized defenses are meeting for the championship. Those second-half shutouts of the Patriots and Atlanta Falcons in the conference title games were only the latest reminder from the 49ers and Ravens that defense still matters.

Sometimes it isn’t about some sort of newfangled, complicated X’s-and-O’s defense, either. It’s about players pushing it to the limit in a league that has been taking steps to rein in certain kinds of hits.

“Being physical? That’s vital, man. That’s what we live by,” Baltimore cornerback Cary Williams said.

NFC romps in Pro Bowl, 62-35 HONOLULU (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Sack-happy defensive end J.J. Watt went out for a couple of passes as a wide receiver, retiring center Jeff Saturday snapped to two Mannings on opposite teams, and the NFC blew past the AFC, 62-35, in a Pro Bowl that could be the leagueâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s last.

Whether the NFLâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all-star game will return or not is a question league officials will ponder the next few months.

And the players gave plenty to consider on both sides of the argument Sunday.

The NFC was unstoppable on offense, with nearly each player putting up fantasy-worthy lines in limited play. The AFC, meanwhile, had five turnovers and scored most of its points well after the game was no longer competitive.

Minnesota tight end Kyle Rudolph was voted the gameâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s MVP with five catches for 122 yards and a touchdown.

Watt, who had 201â &#x201E;2 sacks for Houston, lined up as a wide receiver on the AFCâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s third play from scrimmage but missed a pass from Denver quarterback Peyton Manning. He was targeted one more time but didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t make a catch.

He later showed a television camera a bloody left pinkie, joking with NBC telecasters that the players were trying.

KANSAS CITY CHIEFS LINEBACKER DERRICK JOHNSON (56) OF THE AFC runs back an interception for a touchdown during the Pro Bowl on Sunday in Honolulu. Johnson and his Chiefs teammates lost again, though, as the NFC dominated the AFC, 62-35. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Hey, Commish, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re playing hard,â&#x20AC;? Watt said as he showed his bloodied finger.

Roger Goodell has said the Pro Bowl wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be played again if play didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t improve this year.

Last year, fans in Hawaii booed as lineman were clearly not trying. On one play in that game, Minnesota defensive end Jared Allen did a barrel roll to switch positions with a teammate.

If players were coasting this time around, it was less obvious.

The AFC just played poorly.

And fans didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t boo much.

Saturday played 13 seasons in Indianapolis, all with Manning â&#x20AC;&#x201D; except 2011, when Manning was out because of a neck injury. Saturday then played later in the game for the NFC, snapping to Peytonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s brother, Giants quarterback Eli Manning.

Even as the NFC piled up touchdowns, the game struggled

for memorable moments after Saturdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s momentary switch.

In the second quarter, referee Ed Hochuli drew cheers when announcing a pass-interference penalty on Denver cornerback Champ Bailey in the second quarter â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the first flag of the game. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Yes, there are penalties in the Pro Bowl,â&#x20AC;?

SUMMARY

| SPORTS WRAP |

SAN DIEGO â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Due to the fog that wiped out an entire day of golf, the Farmers Insurance Open was never going to end Sunday.

Tiger Woods just made it look as if it were over.

Hands thrust in the pockets of his rain pants, Woods walked off Torrey Pines in the chill of twilight with a six-shot lead and only 11 more Woods holes standing in the way of winning on the public course along the Pacific Ocean for the eighth time in his pro career.

He drove the ball with superb control in the third round on his way to a 3-under 69 to build a four-shot lead after three rounds. He lost control with his driver in the fourth round and still managed three birdies in seven holes.

Nick Watney and Brandt Snedeker, former winners at Torrey Pines, both face the tough task of trying to make up six shots on Woods Woods was at 17-under par for the tournament and will resume his round on the par-3 eighth hole.

Snedeker played 13 holes of the final round. Watney played eight holes. Both were at 11-under par.

Woods played 25 holes. He started with a two-shot lead and tripled it before darkness suspended the final round.

Thick fog washed out all of Saturday, forcing players to go from sunrise to sunset Sunday.

Former Kansas University golfer Gary Woodland fell nine spots to a tie for 26th place on Sunday and sat at 4-under par for the tournament. He had played 14 holes in the final round, going 2-over for the round.

team has lost at home to Oklahoma and Kansas State and on the road to Iowa State and Oklahoma State (80-66 on Saturday), explained the hustle issue.

“I believe you get out of this game what you put into it. I think Kevin Noreen is a good example,” Huggins said of the 6-foot-10 sophomore from Minneapolis. “Kevin physically is not near as gifted as anybody else on our team, but he puts so much into it. The truth is, he’s getting a heck of a lot out of it. He’s realizing his dream of playing big-time major-college basketball on television. He’ll have three majors and a masters (degree) coming out of here. He’ll get a great job coming out of here.

He’s invested in it. If you don’t invest anything, why would you expect to get anything out?

“You can’t win the lottery unless you buy a ticket. You can’t get in the stock market unless you invest. If you don’t invest ... obviously the more you invest the more you get out of it.”

Some practices have been good this season, some bad.

“We should be in a stance snapping our head, slapping the floor. Instead, you go down, stand up and let guys go where they want,” Huggins said of his defenders. “They (Mountaineers) know better. You put them in a drill, they know not to do that. They’d wear that treadmill out. You get in a game, it doesn’t transfer for whatever reasons. A lot of that is personality.”

the Green Bay Packers.’

That’s the way it has to be.

“It’s not that you don’t have fun. I tell them, ‘College is the greatest time of your life. Enjoy it, but take care of your business first.’

You’d be dumbfounded.

When guys come in, they’re like, ‘Gosh, I’ve got no time, man. I’ve got class, study hall, lifting (weights).’ Let’s think about this, ‘You’ve got class three hours a day, study hall at the max two hours a day and lifting an hour. That’s six (hours).

That’s 18 hours (free). I don’t know what’s wrong putting another hour or so in and maybe work on your game. You should have enough time to have some fun and get some sleep, you’d think.”

The colorful Huggins has a huge fan in Self.

“Huggs back in the league gives it an unbelievable element,” Self said.

“He has a typical Huggs team,” Self said. “They play fast (and) drive it, drive it, drive it. You’ve got to be able to guard the ball in transition. They’ll rebound it. It’ll be a very physical game, probably one of the more physical games we’ve played this year. We’ll have to play better, going on the road.”

Uncommon foe: KU’s Travis Releford on playing West Virginia for the first time in history: “At first, it’s not going to feel like a Big 12 game because we haven’t played in that building.”

bunch of laid-back, nice guys,” Huggins said.

“They’ll do anything in the world for you. The reality is, a good portion of them ... this is not the most important thing to them. I am talking God, family and basketball, or like (Vince) Lombardi said, ‘God, family and

How will they look?: The Jayhawks tonight will wear special jerseys provided by adidas. The “tone-out” jerseys have been described as featuring a “more aggressive Crimson and Blue.” They will only be worn during the West Virginia game.

KU also will wear “toneout” warm-ups and shoes.

Ex-Jayhawk Peters enrolls at Collin College J-W Staff Reports

Former Kansas University basketball forward Zach Peters, who left KU after first-semester final exams following a series of concussions, has enrolled at Collin College in Texas, the Dallas Morning News reports.

Keegan CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B

Kentucky program, but he hasn’t lost any of his edge as a coach and will figure out how to drag his team back from its active threegame losing streak.

9t. Ben Howland (UCLA) 15-6: An intensely controlling man who reached three consecutive Final Fours, Howland’s well-chronicled loss of control of former Bruin Reeves Nelson undermined the program, but the Bruins are on their way back.

The 6-foot-9 former Prestonwood Christian standout (Plano, Texas) is not playing basketball.

“The doctors say it is too risky now,” said Peters, who, according to the Morning News, passed a concussion test last week after four failed efforts. “It will take time.”

Peters told the paper he suffered a concussion at the LeBron James camp during high school, then on the football field during the first game of his senior season.

He suffered two concussions in practice sessions at KU. He also later took a shot to the head

that was not deemed a concussion.

Peters’ dad, Tim, told the Morning News his family has no problem with the treatment of his son’s concussions at Kansas.

Several weeks ago he gave the same comment to the Journal-World.

8. Thad Matta (Ohio State) 17-7: Bears a vague facial resemblance to Larry Bird, but when his teams faces Kansas, they don’t shoot like the Hick from French Lick.

Don’t let that fool you.

Matta consistently has the Buckeyes contending for league titles and more.

7. Donovan (Florida) 18-5: Convincing his players to return for a title defense that was successful was one of the most impressive recruiting coups in the history of the sport.

5t. Tom Izzo (Michigan State) 19-9: Nothing about

this year’s team suggests it should be as good as it is, except for the identity of the coach.

5t. Krzyzewski (Duke) 19-8: Titanic egos of NBA stars didn’t scare him, and he figured out a way to get them to follow his orders as Olympic coach.

Motivating college athletes to fall in line must be a snap after that.

4. Calhoun (retired from UConn) 20-5: He did it his way, and if anybody didn’t like it, that didn’t cause him to lose a wink of sleep.

3. Self (Kansas) 23-8: Appears headed for his fifth No. 1 seed in seven

seasons, a remarkable run that makes the back-toback, first-round tourney exits seem as if they took place decades ago.

1t. Calipari (Memphis/ Kentucky) 27-7: This is not the NCAA’s list, so the five victories en route to a national runner-up finish with Memphis in 2008 count. Kansas defeated Memphis in overtime. It didn’t defeat Vacant.

1t. Williams (North Carolina) 27-6: Roy’s return home has worked out well for the Hall of Fame coach, and it has worked out well for Kansas. Everybody wins.

My daughter, a teacher, insists she knows what she’s doing. So far I’ve kept my mouth shut.

What do you advise? — Frustrated Granny Dear Frustrated: When Susie is in your home, you can instruct her to pick up her clothes, turn off the TV, flush the toilet (heavens!) and clear her plate. Her behavior is

‘Dallas’ has last episodes with J.R. The new incarnation of “Dallas” (8 p.m., TNT) arrives for a second season. Expect political shenanigans, corporate squabbles in the boardroom and the bedroom, and sadly, the final performances of the late Larry Hagman as his iconic character, J.R. Ewing.

As if to remind us that the apple has not fallen far from the tree, J.R.’s son, John Ross, is first seen crashing a bachelorette party and seducing the bride-to-be.

At first, he seems merely opportunistic and amoral. But John Ross is really trying to blackmail the girl’s father, threatening to release indiscreet pictures of his little darling to the tabloid press. When the angry patriarch responds that John Ross may be jeopardizing a marriage between two young people in love, he responds, “Love is for (expletive),” a line that may have warmed J.R.’s heart.

We soon learn that the whole escapade was J.R.’s idea and that John Ross is out to learn as much from the master as he can. But we can’t help knowing that his time is short, and that neither John Ross, nor the rest of the pretty youngsters of the cast, will ever measure up to their entertaining mentor. Old J.R. always made destructive, self-serving mischiefmaking look like so much fun.

John Ross manages to make a night of seduction, betrayal and blackmail look like a chore.

Tonight’s other highlights

Two bodies are unearthed from the same grave on “Bones” (7 p.m., Fox).

“Antiques Roadshow” (7 p.m., PBS) stops in Boston.

Toby makes a gesture on “Switched at Birth” (7 p.m., ABC Family).

“Nick News With Linda Ellerbee” (7 p.m., Nickelodeon) presents “Out of Sight: How Blind Kids See the World.”

Hardy enlists Carroll’s ex to psych out the literary sicko on “The Following” (8 p.m., Fox).

After a failed marriage, Michelle’s brother licks his wounds on “Bunheads” (8 p.m., ABC Family).

“Fashion Police” (8p.m., E!) reviews the notable frocks from the Screen Actors Guild (SAG) Awards ceremony.

Julian isn’t forthcoming on “Deception” (9p.m., NBC).

“Independent Lens” (9 p.m., PBS) presents “The Revisionaries,” a documentary about efforts to lobby the Texas State Board of Education as it revises its teaching standards and textbooks every decade.

not “typical.” It is excessive. While many 12-yearolds will test the limits of what Mom and Dad will tolerate, it doesn’t mean parents should shrug their shoulders and give up. The more the parents accept the more Susie will push. To Susie, if her parents don’t demand anything, it means they don’t care about her. The most you can do is suggest that your daughter discuss Susie’s behavior with her pediatrician, school counselor or a child psychologist for reassurance that she’s handling things in the best possible way.

Dear Annie: My friend “George” has a neighbor who is always watching.

This neighbor peeks out from her curtains, apparently thinking no one can see her. If she is sitting outside, she listens in on George’s conversations. If George makes the slightest noise, she will instantly look to see what’s going on.

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS

For Monday, Jan. 28: This year your focus is on a partnership, especially if you are attached. Sometimes you might feel as if you give too much of yourself, which could cause you to become resentful. If you are single, you could form several different bonds.

If you are attached, confusion surrounds communication.

The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult Aries (March 21-April 19) How you deal with criticism will determine the success of a venture or relationship. Incorporating someone else’s idea into your own can only make the concept stronger. Tonight: It is as if you are speaking Chinese, and others are speaking French. Enjoy the chaos!

Taurus (April 20-May 20) Taking a stand is natural to you, and you do not back down easily. Someone could challenge your ideas and how you are handling a project. Tonight: Brainstorm with a buddy.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) If a response doesn’t fit or seems off, push to get a better answer. It exists — you just need to find it. Tonight: Head home.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) You tend to indulge others.

As a result, you have a lot of friends.

Tonight: Ask a lot of questions.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) A loved one can be flamboyant and unusually demanding.

The issue is not this person, but rather your response to his or her behavior. Tonight: With friends.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You might be feeling less than great. You have been ignoring

jacquelinebigar.com

an issue that has been making you unusually angry. Tonight: The world is your oyster.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Emphasize the positives in a disagreeable, combustible situation. Tap into your resourcefulness, and you will find a path that most parties will agree on. Tonight: Take much-needed personal time.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Stay on top of your work, yet be sure to take all phone calls.

There could be a change in plans, and an impending difficult situation might need to be acknowledged.

Tonight: Make the most of the moment.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You move through your day with ease, though you might be triggered by a conversation. Put those hot feelings away until there is time to process and discuss them.

Tonight: To the wee hours.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) A partner has a lot to share, but the timing could be off. Still, rather than turn away and risk him or her closing down for a sustained period, you might want to make time. Tonight: Use your imagination.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You have your hands full, and your temper flares. You tend to juggle various different ideas, people and situations. Tonight: Listen to a friend’s news.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) Work through your irritation rather than bottle it up. You also might need to talk to the other party involved. Tonight: Chat over dinner.

ROAD RULES By Irma Afram

1/28

This neighbor also gossips with the surrounding neighbors. She is incredibly nosey and kind of bizarre. Any ideas about behavior like this? — Canada Dear Canada: Sure.

The neighbor is lonely, curious, bored and gossipy. George is likely one of many neighbors who provide something potentially interesting for her to focus on. She may be annoying, but she also is the same neighbor who will notice if someone tries to break into George’s house. She’s harmless. If you are feeling expansive, the next time you visit George, the two of you could stop by her house and say hello.

Bring her some cookies.

You’ll make her day.

In the event of a gas line rupture or compromised connection, flexible flow valves reduce the flow of gas to a nonhazardous level. Choose a flexible gas connector with an excess flow valve.

INSTALL A FLEXIBLE GAS CONNECTOR

I

f you are installing a new gas appliance, or you have an old appliance that hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t been serviced in years, replacing the flexible gas connector will help to avoid a dangerous gas leak.

Step 1: Flexible stainless steel gas connectors have been the standard in appliance installation since 2006. To determine whether the existing flex line is code compliant, look for â&#x20AC;&#x153;ANSI Z 21.24â&#x20AC;? stamped on the connecting end of the line. Most compliant flexible gas connectors are yellow or uncoated stainless steel. Gray or uncoated brass flexible connectors should be replaced immediately.

Step 2: Do not reuse flexible lines, fittings or valves, even if they are new. Gas line fittings are designed for one-time use only. Disconnecting a previously tightened fitting can damage the connector and make the seal unsafe. Purchase a flexible gas con-

nector long enough to allow the appliance to be pulled away from the wall if necessary and large enough to meet the BTU requirements for the appliance.

Many new flexible connectors now include excess flow valves. In the event of a gas line rupture or compromised connection, these valves reduce the flow of gas to a nonhazardous level. Choose a flexible gas connector with an excess flow valve.

Step 3: Use the nearby shut-off valve to turn off the gas supply. If there is not a shut-off valve in the vicinity of the appliance, the main valve will need to be turned off, and a proper shut-off valve should be installed.

Step 4: Remove the old flex connector and any additional fittings to expose the standard pipe threads on both the incoming gas line and appliance side of the connection.

Step 5: Clean the newly exposed pipe threads with a wire brush and rag.

Step 6: Apply gas-line-approved yellow thread sealant to the pipe threads. Do not apply sealant to flare-type fittings.

Step 7: Remove the fittings on either end of the flexible gas connector and thread them onto the exposed-thread seal-coated pipe threads. Use an adjustable wrench to tighten the fittings into place.

Step 8: Thread the flare nuts of the gas connector onto the newly installed fittings.

Tighten the nuts into place with an adjustable wrench.

Step 9: Turn the gas back on and leaktest all connections with a leak-detection fluid before lighting any pilot lights or turning on any gas appliance. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Linda Cottin can be reached at go@ljworld.com.

Designer sample sales: The thrill of the hunt

BY BETH J. HARPAZ, ASSOCIATED PRESS

SHOPPERS LOOK through designer merchandise at a sample sale at the companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 260 Fifth Avenue showroom in New York. Sample sales offer leftover designer goods at deep discounts.

N

YORK â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Ordinarily Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m a cheapskate shopper who frequents Kmart and Old Navy and thinks of Macyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s as a splurge. But recently I decided to explore the secret world of New York sample sales, where leftover designer merchandise is sold at deep discounts.

After doing some research with the help of an editor from Lucky magazine and some fashionista friends on Facebook, I came up with a list of venues and set out on my quest. I was prepared for utter mayhem, snooty workers, high prices and tiny sizes designed for skinny models. Instead, while I did encounter crowds and long lines, I also found helpful salespeople and clothes in medium and large.

But the biggest surprise was the discounts and my reaction to them: It took all my willpower to refrain from buying one of everything at my very first sample sale, a Calvin Klein event where everything was marked down 90 percent: $1,300 buttery leather bags and jackets for $130, tailored $195 blouses at $19.50, and soft-as-kittens $325 menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sweaters, just $32.50.

In five minutes, I went from sample sale virgin to sample sale addict. The bargains were intoxicating. I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t need these things, but I wanted them, just so I could say I bought something so expensive for so little.

I decided to check out a few more sales before giving in to my first impulse. Of course they were just as tempting: Norma Kamali jerseys, a mere $12, and $330 Helmut Lang jeans marked down to $32.

In a self-preserving Freudian move, I managed to forget my wallet, so Norma and EW

Helmut did not come home with me. But I returned to Calvin after mentioning the sale to my sons, ages 15 and 20. They begged for trophies.

I arrived 10 minutes before the weeklong event ended. There wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t much left.

My sons are about my size, so I squeezed on a medium gray-and-black checked sweater to check the fit. A salesman looked at me sympathetically and said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Those runway models are tiny! Try a size up.â&#x20AC;?

The large fit well, so I grabbed one for each boy, then decided Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d feel sad if I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get myself something. Five minutes left, warned a loudspeaker. I jogged over to the $19.50 blouses and buttoned one over my top, then power-elbowed a man away from the nearest mirror for a look. Success!

I joined the checkout line of 100 people with seconds to spare. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I bought you a $325 sweater,â&#x20AC;? I later told my teenager. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Nooooo,â&#x20AC;? he said, his eyes growing huge. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Yesssss,â&#x20AC;? I said, producing the sweater with original pricetag.

Both boys loved their souvenirs.

tourist in Manhattan with a shopping itinerary or a fashionista dying for the latest trends to emerge during New Yorkâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s upcoming Feb. 7-14 Fashion Week, here are some tips for navigating the world of sample sales.

FINDING THE SALES Alexis Bryan Morgan, executive fashion director for Lucky, which special-

izes in shopping and deals, says finding sample sales takes a little digging: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Join those mailing lists. Read the blogs. If you love a brand, follow it on Facebook and Twitter.â&#x20AC;? Loyal fans are often first to be notified.

Sometimes designers hold once-a-year sample sales in their retail stores, as Kamali did in January.

But some showrooms partner with different designers to host them throughout the year. Venues include Soiffer Haskin, Clothingline, and 260SampleSale. You can check schedules and sign up for emails on their websites.

Other sample sale info can be found at Racked.com, Mizhattan.com, MadisonAvenueSpy.com, DailyCandy.com, TheStylishCity.com, LazarShopping.com and SugarRockCatwalk.blogspot.com, as well as on the shopping calendars at TimeOut and New York magazines.

Best times of year for sample sales are late February through June and late September until before Christmas.

OFFBEAT OCCUPATIONS:

Not the average 9-to-5

Volunteer scores unique vantage point

BY ADAM STRUNK

A

t the last second, Kansas University red-shirt freshman Ben McLemore banked in a three. The usual 16,300 paying customers screamed. Allen Fieldhouse shook. The fans knew the game that a moment earlier had seemed like a sure loss was headed to overtime. The scoreboard told them so.

Scoreboard operator Robbie Vannaman had done his job, just as he had at 800 other games in the old barn.

Since 1986, Vannaman has operated the scoreboard for KU basketball games on a volunteer basis. He took over the same role at football games around 1988.

Superficially, his job sounds simple. He doesn’t start or stop the game clock or video display. He just records the scores, the substitution listings, the number of fouls or the yards to a first down.

“It’s least important to the game administration, but it’s something that the fans want to see correct,” he said.

When he does his job perfectly, the fans don’t know he exists. But if he messes up, the crowd quickly lets him know it.

“I like to think if the crowd’s dead, you might do it on purpose and get a bit of noise going,” Vannaman joked.

But Vannaman, whose day job is to advise the university on tax policy, isn’t the kind of person to make mistakes or to not take a job seriously.

This becomes apparent as he details for 20 minutes the deeper complexities of running a scoreboard: The scoreboard settings, the programs that sync up the game clock to the officials’ whistles, the constant double-checking with official scorekeepers after every foul and made basket.

Vannaman works a methodical job. He has to be objective and has no time, in those four hours, to be a fan.

“If you lose your focus, that’s when you make mistakes,” he said. “Not while I’ve ever been there have we got to the end of a game with an error between the book and the score on the scoreboard.”

When you make mistakes, you let down the team — not the basketball team, but the group of people, Vannaman is quick to point out, who work hard behind the scenes to make sure each game goes off without a hitch: the spotters, the ushers, the floor wipers and the officials.

This team includes his wife, Madi, who works as an assistant scorekeeper and sits next to him at the scorers’ table at center court.

“There’s a camaraderie from those who work there, from the announcers down to everyone on our crew,” he said. “We try to live up to the history and reputation of KU basketball because you feel a part of a special program.”

Vannaman’s close relationship with the basketball program — in the 25 years of score keeping he’s only missed a handful of games — gives him a unique perspective.

SCOREBOARD OPERATOR ROBBIE VANNAMAN, FAR LEFT, keeps watch of the game as Kansas players Kevin Young and Jeff Withey look to check in during the first half of the Jayhawks’ game against American University on Dec. 29, 2012 at Allen Fieldhouse. ,“You get a flavor for how the coaches are trying to deal with different game changes,” he said. “It’s a rare opportunity to see the game from that vantage point.”

He didn’t name a favorite game but would say that last year’s Missouri game was one of the loudest.

“When there’s a full student group, they bring so much energy, and they love to have it loud,” he said. “When Bill says there’s a great sixth man, he knows from experience.

They give the players energy from their energy.”

He said one of the best moments he’s ever seen would likely be Wilt Chamberlain walking through the tunnel to have his jersey retired.

He doesn’t have a favorite player but cited women’s basketball senior point guard Angel Goodrich as a player who deserves more credit and is a joy to watch.

Vannaman also made sure to mention his appreciation for the program’s numerous walk-ons.

“I just think that they have some kids of fantastic character, and that really adds something to your team.”

Fitting, considering they, like Vannaman, work jobs largely performed away from center stage.

GREAT BALLS OF FIRE The name Robbie Vannaman might not ring a bell, but he is also known as the man who passes out Atomic Fireballs, a cinnamon-flavored hard candy, at KU basketball games.

In the 1980s, Vannaman began bringing Atomic Fireballs to games for himself and for the game crew, and word of the Fireballs grew. Vannaman said then-assistant basketball coaches Neil Dougherty and Joe Holladay would ask for them and also give them to injured players on the bench.

The tradition has continued to grow, and now Vannaman and his wife, Madi, who works as a backup scorekeeper, pass out up to 75 to 100 Atomic Fireballs per game.

“I hope Bill (Self) won’t have enough time to read this, but Justin Wesley, when he was injured, started asking about them. He’s been coming by and getting one. And now Landen Lucas, too.”

Forget the stereotypes: Men in serious relationships need affection, true love

BY NARA SCHOENBERG, CHICAGO TRIBUNE

C

â&#x20AC;&#x201D; What if you lived in a world where men were more romantic than women, where guys were just dying to talk about their feelings, where men were the ones who craved affection from their spouses and partners?

Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s good evidence that you do.

Oakland University sociology professor Terri Orbuch, who has been studying the same 373 married couples for more than 25 years, has looked at the impact of â&#x20AC;&#x153;affective affirmationâ&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the words or gestures you use to show your partner that he is special, noticed or cared for â&#x20AC;&#x201D; on the long-term health of a marriage.

Her findings, she says, are surprising. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When husbands reported that they did not get affective affirmation from their wives often, that couple was two times more likely to divorce over time,â&#x20AC;? Orbuch says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;And that was not true when wives didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get that affirmation. Wives need it, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not as distressing to the couple if (the women) donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get it.â&#x20AC;?

Intrigued by Orbuchâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s research, we went looking for other examples of male relationship needs that run counter to common wisdom, and we didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to look far.

Studies show that men fall in love faster and harbor more romantic notions of the â&#x20AC;&#x153;love conquers allâ&#x20AC;? variety. Warren Farrell, author of the best-seller â&#x20AC;&#x153;Why Men Are the Way They Are,â&#x20AC;? says man-cave hype obscures a basic truth he saw while conducting relationship workshops: Men want to talk to their spouses about whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s troubling them. Often, he says, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s women who get uncomfortable when their husbands or boyfriends reveal fears and vulnerabilities.

Psychologist David Schnarch, author of the best-seller â&#x20AC;&#x153;Passionate Marriage: Keeping Love and Intimacy Alive in Committed Relationships,â&#x20AC;? says a lot of men want to talk more than women do â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not hiding their needs. The problem, he says, is that stereotypes about women being â&#x20AC;&#x153;all heart and no crotchâ&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and men being just the opposite â&#x20AC;&#x201D; are so strong that they often prevent us from seeing the men who are right in front of us.

Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s little question that a lot of information that runs counter to popular wisdom has gone unremarked and undiscussed.

HICAGO

SHOW IT In marriage and serious relationships, both men and women crave affective affirmation, the little nonsexual things you say or do to make someone feel special and appreciated, Oakland University sociology professor Terri Orbuch says.

Gestures that qualify: hugging, kissing, handholding, making coffee in the morning, doing an errand, making a favorite dessert, fixing the sink.

Words work, too. You might say, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I love you.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re wonderful.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re the best husband/wife.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d do it all again in a heartbeat.â&#x20AC;? Even â&#x20AC;&#x153;You look great in those jeans.â&#x20AC;?

For Orbuch, author of â&#x20AC;&#x153;Finding Love Again: 6 Steps to a New and Happy Relationship,â&#x20AC;? a key moment came when men and women in her study were asked to map the five closest relationships in their lives onto a series of concentric circles. The inner circle represented the people closest to the person in question and the larger circles represented degrees of decreasing closeness.

Women, Orbuch says, tended to put all five of their nearest and dearest in the intimate center circle. Men put only their wives in the center circle, and their other confidants in various â&#x20AC;&#x153;outerâ&#x20AC;? circles.

That pattern makes men heavily emotionally dependent on their wives, and may help explain why â&#x20AC;&#x153;affective affirmationâ&#x20AC;? in marriage is so important to them, Orbuch says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Women need affirmative affirmation as much as men, but weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re lucky because we can get it from lots of other people,â&#x20AC;? she says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t crave it and need it only from our partners. Women in our studies reported they get it from their best friends, their mothers, their sisters, their children â&#x20AC;&#x201D; even strangers and people theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve just met.â&#x20AC;?

Menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s emotional reliance on their wives or partners may also help explain why men fall in love faster and tend to idealize their romantic relationships, Orbuch says.

YOGA FOR YOU Practices available for wide variety of interests, skill levels

BY SARA SHEPHERD

S

ome people turn to yoga for an invigorating physical workout. Some want a spiritual experience.

Some have serious physical limitations. Some want to do it with a friend.

For all those people, and virtually everyone in between, there’s a yoga class in Lawrence.

With the increasing popularity of yoga has come an increasing number of specialized classes being offered in Lawrence’s numerous yoga studios: kids, prenatal, hot, Hatha, Yin, Vinyasa, gentle, Iyengar, Kundalini, restorative, ailment-specific — and the list goes on.

Melissa Arthur, a managing partner at Westside Yoga, 4935 Research Parkway, said the right yoga class for you will fit your own unique goals, abilities and personality.

You should feel like the class really benefits you — and ideally you’ll look forward to it.

“Going to yoga should be a treat,” Arthur said.

Most studios and some athletic clubs offer more general yoga classes for students of various levels. Here’s a guide to a few of the more specialized classes in town.

FRANCIE ARNOLD, LEFT, LEADS A CLASS in her “Heart Flow” yoga class Jan. 17 at OmTree Shala yoga studio, 1405 Massachusetts St. In Lawrence, options abound for many types of yoga, depending on your interest, skill level and goals.

SOMEBODY TO LEAN ON You’re not alone in the Acro Flow class at OmTree Shala, 1405 Massachusetts St. In this partner yoga class, you’ll support and be supported by someone else. The studio describes the class as a physical art focusing on three fundamental experiences — union with oneself, the healing art of touch and the exchange of trust.

“It kind of brings up that childlike spirit within all

of us, when we weren’t afraid to trust,” studio owner Sharyn Harley said.

OmTree opened in September, and its first partner yoga class drew some romantic couples, some friends and some people who came alone and paired with other solos in the class, Harley said. The new Acro Flow class, which began this month, aims to be a more “dynamic” version of last semester’s class.

HOT, HOT, HOT If you like it hot, Bikram yoga’s for you. Bikram Yoga College of India, 711 W. 23rd St., heats its studio to 105 degrees for every class, making for one sweaty — and, proponents say, deeply detoxifying — experience.

Deep breathing in the hot environment helps warm the body from the inside out, and pretty much every-

thing youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got becomes more pliable, said Mark Kramer, a longtime Bikram practitioner and one of the studio owners. People donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get injured like they do in colder spaces, he said.

But more than the heat makes this form of yoga unique. Bikram offers the same 90-minute class, with the same 26 postures, in the same order, multiple times a day, seven days a week. The postures have been strategically sequenced to offer the most healing benefit to the body, Kramer said. A number of students attend five or more times a week.

Contrary to popular belief, Kramer said, Bikram yoga isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t just for advanced students. Beginners and veterans practice side by side, resting whenever necessary.

Obviously, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s critical to drink lots of water before, during and after a Bikram class. In addition to your mat, take a beach towel (did we mention youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d be sweating?).

ONLINE For a list of yoga studios and teachers in Lawrence, search for yoga online at LawrenceMarketplace.com.

YIN AND YANG SENIOR-SPECIFIC The Yoga for Seniors class at Westside Yoga targets just what 55-andolder students need.

For one, thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a lot of individualized attention that aims to meet every student right â&#x20AC;&#x153;where they are,â&#x20AC;?

Arthur said. Also, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s gentle and keeps the focus on strength, flexibility and balance.

Flexibility is important to preventing injury and helping the body stay resilient as it ages, Arthur said.

Many class movements are designed to target stabilizing muscles that are critical for balance but tend to break down as the body ages.

JUST BREATHE A MEDITATIVE STATE OmTree Shalaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Kundalini Yoga class is almost entirely breath work. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a great class for people who want the benefits of yoga but are really physically limited,â&#x20AC;? Harley said.

Examples might include someone with a serious physical injury who would be unable to engage in traditional yoga movements.

While it may appear easy to an outsider looking in, the class is intense, Harley said, explaining that the instructor-led, highly controlled breathing â&#x20AC;&#x153;moves a lot of energyâ&#x20AC;? and is both physically and emotionally calming and cleansing.

tion has a spiritual objective, she said. It helps them develop awareness, become open to other possibilities and tap into their â&#x20AC;&#x153;authenticâ&#x20AC;? selves.

In keeping with the open vibe, the class is offered on a donation basis.

The meditative yoga class at Westside Yoga is designed for students seeking mental escape or spiritual enlightenment.

Usually led by candlelight, the class involves a series of gentle yoga postures designed to prepare the body for still, quiet relaxation and reflection, Arthur said.

Some students seek this type of class for stress management, Arthur said. They need a break from their fast-paced, multi-tasking lives to â&#x20AC;&#x153;check inâ&#x20AC;? with their bodies and nurture themselves. For others, medita-

Instead of the major muscles a typical yoga class awakens, Yin yoga focuses on stretching and strengthening connective tissue, bones and joints.

In OmTree Shalaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Sacred Yin Flow class, props are used as needed to support the body in a variety of simple postures, Harley said. Then students hold those postures for extended periods of time, up to five minutes or more, and thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s where the class becomes challenging. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s great for all types of people just to slow down and kind of hang out with the different sensations in your body,â&#x20AC;? Harley said.

While OmTree Shalaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s class includes more movement than a traditional Yin yoga class, Harley said, the core principal is the same. It takes â&#x20AC;&#x201D; or for many people, teaches â&#x20AC;&#x201D; discipline.

Restorative yoga, such as the Deep Restorative class at Westside Yoga, is similar in that poses are held for long periods of time. But restorative poses are fully supported by props, making for a more passive experience. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not a workout as much as it is an opportunity to relax very deeply,â&#x20AC;?

Arthur said. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Features reporter Sara Shepherd can be reached at 832-7187. Follow her at Twitter.com/KCSSara.

Mrs. Obama has bangs: Let the analyzing begin

BY JOCELYN NOVECK, ASSOCIATED PRESS

N

YORK â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Before we start rambling on obsessively about Michelle Obamaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s bangs, letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s be clear: The president started it.

It was he, after all, who called the new hairdo, unveiled just a few days before the historic occasion of his second inauguration, â&#x20AC;&#x153;the most significant event of this weekend.â&#x20AC;?

And he hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t stopped there. On Tuesday night, he introduced his wife at the Staff Inaugural Ball: â&#x20AC;&#x153;And the First Lady of the United States, bangs and all...â&#x20AC;?

So given the presidentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s evident interest in the subject, perhaps the rest of us shouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t feel so bad about analyzing ad nauseum the first ladyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s new look, an activity that has certainly taken over social media for days (and, perhaps, ended discussion of an earlier obsession, Michelle Obamaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s arms.) Heck, the bangs even have their own (unauthorized) Twitter account, FirstLadyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;sBangs, which has taken to issuing dispatches like: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Just got a text from Hillary Clintonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s side-partâ&#x20AC;? or â&#x20AC;&#x153;BREAKING NEWS: Barack just named me director of Hairline Security.â&#x20AC;?

And how about the headline in New Yorkâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Daily News, the day after Obamaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s private swearing-in? â&#x20AC;&#x153;In With A Bang.â&#x20AC;?

Quips and clever headlines aside, everyone seems to have an opinion about the new style â&#x20AC;&#x201D; not only how it looks, but what it means. And so, just because itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fun, we analyze some of them here: THE YOUTH FACTOR: Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no secret, say fashion experts, that on the right person, bangs can make you look younger.

PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA KISSES FIRST LADY MICHELLE OBAMA in the presidential box near the White House as bands march past the presidential box Jan. 21 in Washington. Before the historic occasion of his second inauguration, the president called the first ladyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s new hairdo â&#x20AC;&#x153;the most significant event of this weekend.â&#x20AC;?

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also no secret that Mrs. Obama turned 49 the very day she unveiled the cut last week, in a photo tweeted from her new Twitter account, FLOTUS. â&#x20AC;&#x153;None of this is accidental,â&#x20AC;? says Linda Wells, Allure magazineâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s editor-in-chief. â&#x20AC;&#x153;She tried this on her 49th birthday. She wants to spice it up a bit. And itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s definitely a more youthful style than what she had before. It just has a flirty, young quality to it.â&#x20AC;?

THE FASHION PLATE: Clearly Mrs. Obama, well known and admired for her fashion sense, is aware that bangs are in these days. Sure, theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been around forever, and your 5-year-old may have them, but recently bangs have become a full-fledged fashion trend, with actress Zooey Deschanel one of the standard-bearers. (Fun fact: Deschanel, 33, and Mrs. Obama happen to

Â&#x;Ĺ&#x201D;ø $Â&#x2018; ¿¿ ;ÂľĂ&#x152;Ĩ|Ä? ĂŻĂŻBÄ?|ÂżÂ&#x17D; 1|Âż|^Ĩ Ă&#x2014;¿¾oBĹ&#x17D; BÄ?| !ÂľĂ&#x152;|Ä?BÂżÄ&#x2019; ¾ĨÄ&#x2019; !BÄ?ž|o Ă&#x2014;Ĺ&#x152;Ă&#x152;Â&#x17D;

share the same birthday â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Jan. 17.) â&#x20AC;&#x153;Bangs have always been there, but they are clearly having a moment right now,â&#x20AC;? says celebrity hairstylist Harry Josh, who was in Washington to style singer Kelly Clarksonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hair for the inauguration (Clarkson sang â&#x20AC;&#x153;My Country, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Tis of Thee.â&#x20AC;?) â&#x20AC;&#x153;Mrs. Obama is really being modern and fashion-forward. We havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t had a fashion-forward first lady like this since Jackie Kennedy.â&#x20AC;?

New York hairstylist Robert Stuart agrees. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Bangs have been really, really big for about a year,â&#x20AC;? he says. He thinks Mrs. Obama has picked the perfect cut for her looks. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s much softer and younger, and it makes her look more approachable,â&#x20AC;? Stuart says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It also works well for her sense of fashion. And it brings out her eyes.â&#x20AC;?

-Â&#x2122;nBĂ&#x2022;n Â&#x2014;ÂŞÂ?ÂĽ èĂ&#x2022; BĂ&#x;a

THE NAYSAYERS: Just in case one thinks everyone loves the hairdo â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and the reaction does seem extremely positive â&#x20AC;&#x201D; there are naysayers. Count among them Joan Rivers, comedienne and fashion commentator, who tweeted on Inauguration Day: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Today starts President Obamaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s next four years in the White House. Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hope the same isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t true about the first ladyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s new hairdo.â&#x20AC;? Explanation? She didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t provide one, but in her defense, she only had 140 characters.

SHEâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S EXPRESSING HER INNER SELF: Here we get a little more philosophical. Some have speculated that, since Mrs. Obama is starting a second term and wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to endure any more campaigns, sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s finally free to express herself exactly as she wants â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and feels. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Haircuts do express how people are feeling,â&#x20AC;? says Wells. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You get that sense of her feeling liberated â&#x20AC;&#x201D; more comfortable, and less worried about what everyone else is thinking. Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s showing her own sense of style and own sense of energy.â&#x20AC;?

Stuart, of the Robert Stuart Salon, has a similar thought. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think now sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s maybe feeling less threatened, and can express herself more. Really she just seems more comfortable.â&#x20AC;?

A SIGN OF SOMETHING BIGGER?: Many have wondered whether Mrs. Obama has plans to forge a new role in the second term, taking on different issues. Wells, the fashion editor, gets that feeling, though she makes clear itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all speculation. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You sense it with the strong statement she is making with her appearance,â&#x20AC;? Wells says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Before, her look was sort of retrograde: the hair, the A-line dresses. The emphasis was on â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;lady.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; Now, it seems, the emphasis is on â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;first lady.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;?

Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s claiming that this is not like drug abuse because heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s doing it to help, not hurt himself, and everyone else is using stimulants so without them heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s at a disadvantage. This is breathtaking for me. What are your thoughts and advice about this?

Dr. Wes: Yeah. Breathtaking. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s how I felt last spring when a college freshman expressed her frustration that â&#x20AC;&#x153;everyone in my biology class was loaded on Adderall for the final.â&#x20AC;? And just like your son, she felt it ruined the curve.

Initially, I was incredulous about this.

Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m no stranger to amphetamine abuse, but it didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t seem possible that stimulants were falling down like candy from heaven.

Unfortunately, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve heard this same story a number of times since, and not only among college students.

Stimulants are a godsend for people with ADHD. The research supports that and all the major associations and academies agree that medication works.

But that benefit comes at a substantial cost. These are powerful meds, they have side effects and they build tolerance quickly in the brain, requiring either quarterly breaks or dosage increases that can further multiply the side effects. Most people I see who take stimulants correctly have a love-hate relationship with them. If they could get by without them, they would happily do so.

So why would anyone want to use them unless they were absolutely necessary? Because of the unproven belief that anyone can benefit from them, like theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re a super cup of coffee that magically improves test scores.

The New York Times reported in October that some physicians are actually going

Double TAKE DR. WES CRENSHAW AND KATIE GUYOT along with this trend to try to â&#x20AC;&#x153;even the scalesâ&#x20AC;? between low-income children and the rest of society. And whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the problem with that? We have no research on whether these meds really help a nondiagnosed population, and if they do, for how long and under what conditions.

Simply put: These meds just donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t work that way.

Parents who suspect their child has ADHD should get an evaluation using a standardized, norm-referenced test, along with a clinical interview that rules out other causes. There are several good scales available and plenty of professionals who follow recognized guidelines for evaluation and treatment.

If teens and young adults are coping with competition in the learning environment this way, theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to be disappointed.

This isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t leveling the playing field. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pinning your hopes on an illusion.

Katie: In many ways, modern education more closely resembles the Tour de France

than it does a classroom learning experience. As soon as students hit high school, our classmates become competitors: in class rankings, standardized tests, bell curves, college admissions, and perhaps most importantly, the job market. We are encouraged not merely to do our best, but to be the best.

And just as the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most famous bike race is plagued by dangerous performance-enhancing drugs, schools face a flourishing market for stimulants like Adderall and Ritalin that give students a temporary competitive edge.

The key word there is â&#x20AC;&#x153;temporary.â&#x20AC;? One pill might boost a B on a test to an A, but one pill for every grade that needs boosting puts a student one dose closer to dependency. In terms of the potential for abuse, the Drug Enforcement Administration ranks drugs like Adderall and Ritalin as Schedule II Controlled Substances â&#x20AC;&#x201D; just one level below illegal drugs like LSD and Ecstasy.

Stimulant addictions typically develop gradually. Under the pressure of a highly competitive environment, a student might try a drug during finals or midterms before using it for a few other tests, then for all tests, then for study nights, then to pay attention in class, until itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a daily â&#x20AC;&#x201D; even multi-daily â&#x20AC;&#x201D; pattern.

Wes is right. This may be the first time your son has taken Adderall, but it should be the last. Convincing him that temporary rewards arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t worth the long-term payments may be hard. In doing so, try to help him understand that the only person he should compete against is himself. He doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t need to share or compare grades with anyone else. In the long run, heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be best off playing by the rules and taking care of his mind and body.

After all, even Lance Armstrong eventually crashed.

Tips on how to make walking your dog more pleasant

BY THE AMERICAN KENNEL CLUB

5

aking a walk with your dog is a great way to get some exercise and bond.

However, if your dog pulls the leash or lunges, it can make your leisurely stroll difficult. American Kennel Club’s Canine Good Citizen Director and Certified Applied Animal Behaviorist, Mary Burch, Ph.D. offers some basic training techniques:

Walking your dog on a loose leash:

When walking your dog down the street, there should be slack in the leash. When the leash has slack in it, there should be a “J” shape that begins where the leash snaps to your dog’s collar. Your dog should not constantly strain at the leash.

Teaching heel for control: Teaching your dog to heel is a good method of control. In the heeling position, the dog is positioned at your side. It’s best to begin with your dog sitting at your left side.

Step off your left foot as you say “Heel.”

Walk forward and praise your dog for be-

ing in the heel position. After several steps, take your last step with your right foot and bring your left foot next to it. Repeat the process until your dog will heel nicely in a straight line.

Using a toy or treat as a reward: Your dog’s favorite toy or treat can help act as a reinforcer to help teach your dog how to walk nicely. You can start by having your dog on your side and have the toy or treat in your hand (at the center of your waist).

Give your dog the toy or treat as a reward for not pulling at the leash. Remember to praise

him (“Good Dog”) with the treat. Eventually, you’ll phase out the treats.

Stop your dog from lunging or pulling: Dogs who are fearful, protective or playful may lunge at other dogs or people.

If your dog starts to lunge or pull on the leash, briskly turn and go in the opposite direction. Your dog will have to follow you and hurry to keep up with you. You can also stop lunging on the leash by standing still when the dog starts to pull or lunge.

The dog soon learns that the walk stops when there is pulling.
