Bars rarely penalized for serving minors

LJWorld.com

MARCH MADNESS

HOW SWEET IT IS

By Shaun Hittle sdhittle@ljworld.com

Lawrence bars were cited more than 200 times for serving minors during the past two years.

But records obtained by the Journal-World show such citations rarely result in significant penalties.

In 2012, for instance, prosecutions

by Alcohol Beverage Control, the state agency that handles such cases, doled out $7,100 in fines but did not issue any suspensions to Lawrence bars.

Under state law, several of the bars — cited and prosecuted dozens of times during the past several years — could have lost their liquor licenses but didn’t. “Some of the licenses are reaching the point where they’re getting pretty severe,� said Dean Reynoldson, of ABC. But no one is sounding alarm bells, he said.

In her mind, the man who kidnapped and sexually assaulted her after she’d worked a shift at the Ottawa Walmart 13 years ago was a larger-than-life monster.

He haunted her thoughts for more than a decade, turning a 16-year-old Williamsburg high school sophomore COURTS into a fearful woman who rarely ventured out after dark. After a decade, Angela — who asked to use a pseudonym — had given up hope that the

It was Selfâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s third NCAA Tournament victory for Kansas against his predecessor, Roy Williams, who is 0-3 against the Jayhawks.

North Carolina went into the locker room at the half leading 30-21. Kansas (31-5) opened the second half on a 33-10 run, and the Tar Heels (25-11) never drew within single digits after that.

Boy killed by falling airport sign MONTGOMERY, ALA. (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; As airport officials tried to figure out how a 300-pound arrival-departure panel fell off the wall and onto a family, the mother of a boy who was killed by the sign lay in a hospital with her own injuries, still unaware of what happened.

Heather Bresette and two of her other sons were seriously hurt when the panel fell Friday at the Birmingham-Shuttlesworth International Airport. She had surger-

â&#x20AC;&#x153;I havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t had anyone express outrage or even concern that weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re being lax in liquor licenses,â&#x20AC;?

Reynoldson said.

Application of laws The Kansas laws and penalties for bars that serve minors look paltry when compared with other states. In Kansas, bars caught serving minors face a $500 fine for a first offense. Penalties creep up until the eighth violation, when a bar could potentially have its license revoked.

But in Nebraska, for instance, a bar would face license revocation by a fourth violation. In Oklahoma, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s possible to face revocation after a first offense.

Just for violations in 2012 alone, four Lawrence bars had enough citations to face license revocation under the Nebraska law.

Even under the current penalty structure, many Lawrence bars have had enough violations to warrant license revocation under Kansas law.

Reynoldson, however, said the ABC has not taken that approach, and, generally, bars are suspended and fined instead of revocations, even after they reach the eighth violation.

But that doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t mean it couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t happen, he said.

Three Lawrence bars â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Abe & Jakeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s, The Hawk and the Phoggy Dog â&#x20AC;&#x201D; have pending license-revocation hearings scheduled for this year.

The Bresettes, a family of seven, took a weeklong spring break vacation to Destin, Fla., and were about to fly home to Overland Park, Kan., when the flight information panel fell.

Luke Bresette, the middle of five children, was

killed. His brother, 5-yearold Tyler, suffered a concussion. His 8-year-old brother, Sam, had a broken leg and nose.

Tyler was released from a childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hospital Sunday; Sam was still there.

The boysâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; father, Ryan Bresette, and an older son and daughter, were at the airport when the sign fell but not hurt.

Heather Bresetteâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s condition improved to serious on Sunday, University Hospital spokeswoman Nicole Wyatt said.

About the data

The Journal-World requested a list of all citations issued by the ABC and law enforcement as part of several enforcement actions in Lawrence in 2012.

25 bars received citations for serving minors in 2012.

The Journal-World also requested information for bars prosecuted by ABC in 2012.

In 2012, the ABC prosecuted 14 cases, resulting in about $7,000 in fines. Twenty cases are pending.

Uphill battle Jen Jordan, director of prevention at DCCCA, said bars can and should implement better approaches to preventing minors from drinking.

Jordan, who also works with the Draw the Line Coalition, a local alcohol abuse prevention group, said they hold training sessions for local bars centered on spotting fake IDs. But Jordan acknowledged the challenges faced by bars, as todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s youths are creative and technologically savvy when it comes to obtaining fake IDs. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got a lot of IDs that are being bought online that look pretty good,â&#x20AC;? said Jordan, adding that the Lawrence area also has a rotating crop of motivated students determined to get into local hot spots.

Scott Newell, owner of Phoggy Dog, 2228 Iowa St., one of the bars that has a revocation hearing scheduled this year, talked about one recent violation where an ID even initially fooled law enforcement officers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a battle,â&#x20AC;? said Newell about monitoring the thousands of college-age students who show up at

New autism statistic shouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t cause alarm Numbers arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t necessarily worse, but disorder still merits further study

By Matt Erickson merickson@ljworld.com

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an eye-catching statistic: One in 50 U.S. schoolchildren has autism, according to new estimates released this week by the federal Centers for Disease Control.

But autism researchers at Kansas University say the number shouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t cause alarm. It doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t mean things are any worse than they were five years ago, when an estimate put the rate at 1 in 88 kids. It just means that parents and doctors are doing a better job of spotting autism.

Indeed, the new estimate might mean things are better. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no reason to think that thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s anything thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s go-

gotten worse, Colombo said, it does mean things arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t good.

Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a high percentage of children to have such a disorder, and it demands further research on the matter, he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know of any other developmental disorder thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s even close to that,â&#x20AC;? Colombo said.

Some of that research is going on at KU. In Andersonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lab, she and other researchers study biological signs of the disorder, as opposed to the behavioral signals traditionally used to diagnose it.

Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve linked autism to things such as pupil size and hormones present in saliva in children as young as infants.

And theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re testing a theory

that beta blockers â&#x20AC;&#x201D; cheap medications typically used to treat heart conditions â&#x20AC;&#x201D; could be given to children with autism during infancy to prevent further development of the disorder.

Much more work is needed, Anderson said, and more pediatricians need to conduct autism screenings on young children.

More awareness of the disease can only help. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s where it needs to move,â&#x20AC;? Anderson said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It needs to be considered a medical diagnosis.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Kansas University reporter Matt Erickson can be reached at 832-6388, or at his next KU â&#x20AC;&#x153;office hoursâ&#x20AC;?: 9 a.m. to noon March 27 in the Media Crossroads, fourth floor of the Kansas Union.

Snow, snow, go away

Flory testifies for fire district changes

A KDOT TRUCK PLOWS SNOW on U.S. Highway 24 on Sunday.

Lawrence residents woke up to as much as seven inches of snow in their yards. LEFT: Hannah Hurst and her daughter Anna Belle, 9, walk through the slush and snow on Eighth Street to get a newspaper.

Third snowstorm passes The Lawrence area received four to seven inches of snow this weekend, as another winter snowstorm hit northeast Kansas Saturday night and Sunday morning, according to estimates from the National Weather Service.

The bulk of the snow fell Saturday night and caused some treacherous driving conditions Sunday morning, when local emergency crews were busy responding to multiple incidents of vehicles sliding off area roads.

NWS warned of continued problems on roads caused by blowing snow and high winds.

Megan Gilliland, city of Lawrence spokeswoman, said crews had been prepping Lawrence roads since Thursday and additional units had been called in.

Monday cancellations as of midnight Sunday

Cornerstone Southern Baptist Church food pantry will be closed today.

Ottawa schools will not have classes today.

Douglas County Commissioner Jim Flory last week testified in favor of House Bill 2249, which would allow residents to have an election if they want to detach from a fire district.

Flory said Marion Township, where he lives, in Douglas County is covered by Fire District No. 4 in Osage County, but Marion Township is closer to the Clinton Township Fire Department substation. Under current law, he said, when a fire district has territory in more than one county, the residents of the district who do not live in the â&#x20AC;&#x153;homeâ&#x20AC;? county cannot detach from that district if the districtâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s governing body denies their petition. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The current state of the law creates a situation where select residents essentially lack representation on the governing bodies that control a portion of their taxation,â&#x20AC;? Flory said.

But Steve Hirsch, secretary of the Kansas State Firefighters Association, opposes the bill, saying it could be abused in a way that hinders the ability of fire districts to depend on its tax base to purchase necessary equipment.

The legislation is still under consideration.

Third-grade retention remains a possibility Gov. Sam Brownbackâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s proposal to hold back thirdgraders if they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t read at grade-level on a test is still alive in an altered form, and Please see CAPITOL, page 7A

Kansas highway funds are tempting targets

By John Hanna Associated Press

TOPEKA — Three successive multibillion-dollar transportation programs have given Kansas some of the best highways in the nation, but they’ve also created a ready source of rainy day funds whenever the state faces budget problems.

Borrowing funds meant for the Kansas Department of Transportation’s highway, bridge and road maintenance projects has become so common that some legislators have nicknamed the state’s transportation programs “the Bank of KDOT.” Both the efforts to siphon away funds and complaints about the “raids” are bipartisan habits stretching back nearly a quarter-century.

This year is no exception. Republican Gov. Sam Brownback and many members of the GOP-dominated Legislature want to follow up on massive income tax cuts enacted last year and to position the state to eventually phase out personal income taxes.

But they also have to stabilize the budget.

Brownback has proposed diverting $510 million in highway funds over the next two years, according to legislative researchers. The House wanted to

ANALYSIS increase that amount by $382 million over two years but backed off the idea amid heavy criticism and a warning from Brownback’s own transportation secretary that already scheduled projects would be delayed.

Yet, despite the rebuke for the House’s proposal, the Legislature appears likely to siphon off at least several hundred million dollars of highway funds, because both chambers have endorsed most of the diversions Brownback has proposed.

“I think there’s an impression among some legislators that there is more than enough money in transportation to adequately fund roads and roads improvements,” said Senate President Susan Wagle, a Wichita Republican.

The push for big, multiyear commitments to highway projects began in 1987 with then-Republican Gov. Mike Hayden, and it took him almost two years to overcome legislators’ skepticism. For that first program, the state increased its sales tax, boosted motor fuels taxes, hiked vehicle registration fees and authorized a then-gargantuan-sounding

$890 million in bonds.

Republican Gov. Bill Graves, the scion of a trucking-company family, followed suit with a bigger, 10-year program in 1999, and the last program was enacted with a big push from Democratic Gov. Mark Parkinson.

In pushing the first program, Hayden lamented deficient bridges, narrow highway shoulders and unsafe stretches of road.

A recent report from the Libertarian-leaning, Los Angeles-based Reason Foundation said Kansas has no interstate miles in poor condition, and in 2010, it ranked the state third in the nation for the quality of its highways.

That same year, Reader’s Digest magazine ranked Kansas first.

Legislators in both parties also believe that keeping the current program on track preserves thousands of jobs.

“We have decades of transportation programs that have created jobs and spurred economic development all across this state,” Rep. Julie Menghini, a Pittsburg Democrat, said during a House debate last week.

And even as he proposes his own diversions of highway funds, Brownback is promising that what he proposes

Brownback has proposed taking away $510 million after income tax cuts last year. won’t delay projects, and his spokeswoman, Sherriene Jones-Sontag, has described transportation as a “core” function of state government. Brownback’s administration has been careful this year to tie most of the diversions to transportation-related items currently financed with general tax revenues, such as $246 million for public schools’ transportation programs.

Brownback said during a brief interview with The Associated Press that he would have liked to have avoided diverting money from the transportation

Strong demand for locally grown foods might create westside farmers’ market It is spring, which of course means that my crop of crabgrass soon will take off. (That sound you heard was my neighbor who reads this throwing her computer across the kitchen.)

But maybe a different type of crop comes to mind for you with the changing of the season: Fresh produce, it appears, is on the minds of more people than ever these days.

Plans have been filed at Lawrence City Hall for yet another farmers’ market.

The folks at Clinton Parkway Nursery — right at the corner of Clinton Parkway and Wakarusa Drive — have filed plans for a farmers’ market every Wednesday evening from May through August.

If you are keeping track at home, there will be farmers’ markets on Tuesday (Downtown Lawrence Farmers’ Market), Wednesday (Clinton Parkway Nursery, assuming it is approved), Thursday (Cottin’s Hardware near 19th and Massachusetts) and Saturday (Downtown Lawrence Farmers’ Market.)

Ann Peuser, an owner of Clinton Parkway Nursery, said people are creating a strong demand for locally grown fruits and vegetables. And she said indications are that West Lawrence residents want a market that allows them to buy a little closer to their neighborhoods.

The Downtown Lawrence Farmers’ Market has had a West Lawrence market in the past. Within the last two years, it had a market in the parking lot of the shopping center on the southwest corner of Sixth and Wakarusa. But as that shopping center started to fill up with new tenants, the market lost its lease. I think the idea of a westside market, though, was starting to gain some momentum.

We’ll find out soon enough how much of an appetite the community has for farmers’ markets.

If approved, the Clinton Parkway market will open May 15. Peuser said plans call for the market to be

open from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. on Wednesdays.

She said she expects to have about a dozen vendors — they’ll focus on actual produce, not crafts and such — and she already has “quite a list” of producers who are interested in the market. The market will be in a portion of the nursery’s parking lot.

While the Clinton Parkway market won’t get going until mid-May, the Downtown Lawrence Farmers’ Market in the 800 block of New Hampshire has set its opening day as Saturday, April 13.

I don’t yet see an opening date listed for the Cottin’s Hardware market on its Web site, but it indicates its outdoor market (it has a small indoor market currently) will open in May.

I wonder what type of music they play in Mexican musical chairs. Whatever it is, keep an ear out for it on Massachusetts Street.

I’ve gotten confirmation that the popular Mexican/ Latin American eatery La Parrilla will be moving into the space that recently was vacated by Tapas at 724 Massachusetts St. Allison Vance Moore, of the Lawrence office of Colliers International, confirmed to me that she has brokered a deal for the owners of La Parrilla to buy the large downtown building that previously housed several other restaurants, including Joe Shmo’s and, way back when, Prairie Fire.

The purchase was finalized about 10 days ago, and Moore said La Parrilla has tentatively set a late spring timeline to open in the new location, a block

from its current spot at 814 Massachusetts St. La Parrilla has been open in downtown since 1999, when Subarna Bhattachan and Alejandro Lule teamed up to open the restaurant that focuses on dishes from Mexico, Central America and South America.

The duo have become one of the more successful restaurant teams in downtown over the last decade. They also are part of the ownership group that owns Zen Zero and Genovese restaurants.

Last spring, the pair began a Kansas City area expansion, opening a La Parrilla at 119th and Strang Line Road in Olathe.

I haven’t yet gotten in touch with Bhattachan or Lule to find out their plans for the new space, which is significantly larger than what they have currently.

But Moore told me there has been some talk of using the upstairs space at the new location for private parties or to host special events, similar to the wine and food tastings that Genovese frequently hosts.

As for Tapas, we reported last week that it plans to reopen but hasn’t yet announced a new location or timeline. I still haven’t confirmed either, but sources tell me that Tapas indeed is serious about reopening. I’m told a location on Massachusetts Street is most likely.

Then there is La Parrilla’s soon-to-be-former spot at 814 Massachusetts St. That building is owned by a company led by longtime Lawrence landlords George and Judy Paley. I also don’t have anything confirmed about its future, but sources tell me a tenant already is in the works, most likely a restaurant of some sort.

Maybe the folks at 3 Spoons Yogurt know something we don’t — that winter is never really going to end.

Whatever the case, the frozen yogurt business at 732 Massachusetts St. has closed, and an employee there confirmed to me

that the company has no plans to reopen elsewhere in Lawrence.

I didn’t get any official word on why the company decided to close. I suppose you could assume that it was just a decision based on the amount of sales the company was doing in Lawrence, although the store had nearly 3,000 likes on its Facebook page.

(And that’s all you need to get rich in America anymore, isn’t it?) I will say that on my many patrols of downtown, it seemed to me the store had a good following.

3 Spoons, which has been in Lawrence for a little more than two years, is part of a franchise that was started in College Station, Texas, in 2009, according to the company’s Web site. In case you are curious, the nearest store to Lawrence now appears to be Waco, Texas. (It might melt before you get back.)

What isn’t the case, it appears, is that some other business came and took the space away from 3 Spoons. Bob Sarna — an executive with First Management, the company that serves as the landlord for the downtown building — confirmed to me he doesn’t yet have another business lined up for the space.

The frozen yogurt business downtown certainly got more competitive in recent months with the opening of TCBY at Ninth and Massachusetts in the former Penny Annie’s location. Both operated with the same philosophy of serve yourself and then take your yogurt up to be weighed.

TCBY, though, also has the added advantage of being a Mrs. Fields Cookie retailer as well.

I’ll keep an ear out for word of what may be heading into the 3 Spoons location. As for people who have a gift certificate to the 3 Spoons location in Lawrence, the company is asking you to e-mail lawrence@spoonsyogurt.com to find out the details for a refund.

program but he had to deal with “the big trough” in the budget caused by last year’s income tax cuts.

“We said, ‘Well, we need to fill this because we’re trying to protect core functions,’ and we were still able to do it and do the projects that had been announced and put forward,” Brownback said. “People put the money there in the roads; they’re going to build the roads, and then they look at ways they can, at times of being cash-tight, use it for an interim period for other things.”

After Hayden’s program was enacted, supporters battled regular attempts to recapture some of the money. A year after Graves pushed successfully for his program, he was seeking to divert funds, and in 2002, his administration put nine projects on the chopping block until lawmakers raised motor fuels taxes. More siphoning occurred during the next administration of Democrat Kathleen Sebelius, and lawmakers brokered a deal with her to cancel a sales tax cut set for 2006 to keep the program on track.

Woman uncomfortable with lesbian friend’s crush

Dear Annie: One of my best friends is a lesbian and has feelings for me. I found this out a few years ago and communicated to her several times in a nice way that I am not gay, but she says she cannot change the way she feels.

It was an awkward conversation because she doesn’t like speaking openly about her feelings.

I was devastated by her response and even tried not speaking to her for close to a year — a painful time for me — hoping she would find a suitable partner and get over her crush.

A few months ago, because of a work project, we started communicating again. On the surface, it’s great. I have my old friend back, and we go out for drinks and discuss our work issues. However, deep down, I dread that it’s all coming back.

I try chatting about my dating stories as a casual way to hint that noth-

What should I say or do? — Tormented Dear Tormented: We understand your discomfort, but you are too focused on the crush and not enough on the friendship. There is no reason to bring up her feelings when she obviously doesn’t want to discuss them and hasn’t made any overtures to indicate that she is still interested.

‘The Voice,’ ‘Revolution’ return After having been routed in the ratings and ridiculed by Jay Leno, NBC brings back two of its more popular shows to shore up its anemic schedule.

The fourth season of “The Voice” (7 p.m.) returns with blind auditions, red swivel chairs and judges Blake Shelton and Adam Levine as well as Shakira and Usher, who will replace Christina Aguilera and Cee Lo Green for this season. Carson Daly hosts.

“The Voice” will run until June 18, when a new winner emerges.

One day someone will write a Ph.D. thesis on why so many of the popular dramas of our time involve post-apocalyptic visions of ordinary citizens besieged by zombies, aliens, conspiracies and other dark forces. From “The Walking Dead” to “Falling Skies” to reality television’s “Doomsday Preppers,” we just can’t get enough of watching individuals or ragtag armies prepare for a struggle of survival and/or rebellion.

NBC’s slick fantasy “Revolution” (9 p.m.) fits into this grim theme and returns for the second half of its freshman season. Tonight, the evil warlords unleash their superior technology — make that, the only technology — on rebel forces. Things look bleak until the rebels regroup and reboot the inner “Red Dawn” of every red-blooded American.

Tonight’s other highlights

A jewel in a corpse on “Bones” (7 p.m., Fox).

Omar proposes on “The Secret Life of the American Teenager” (7 p.m., ABC Family).

Joe’s disciples target Claire on “The Following” (8 p.m., Fox).

The new documentary series “Deceived” (8 p.m., TV One) profiles victims of con artists.

Christopher’s technology faces a grim test on “Dallas” (8 p.m., TNT).

Shark lovers may be behind a series of crimes on “Hawaii Five0” (9p.m., CBS).

The icing on the cake on “Castle” (9 p.m., ABC).

A mistake comes under review on “Monday Mornings” (9 p.m., TNT).

Dylan makes his presence known on “Bates Motel” (9 p.m., A&E).

An apparent suicide is suspicious on “Top of the Lake” (9 p.m., Sundance).

Taurus (April 20-May 20) You continue to see life in a different, more grounded way.

You might wonder what is going on around you, as others seem to act oddly. Tonight: Find a person who knows more about the topic at hand, and/or surf the web to get more information.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) You might be a bit more grounded than you’d like. Information that is forthcoming could challenge your knowledge of a specific relationship or financial agreement. Tonight: Let go of how things “should” be.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) Ask more questions. You might realize that someone close to you is changing, and he or she could be quite controlling at this point in time. Tonight: Have a long-overdue discussion.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) Be aware of the cost of proceeding in a certain direction.

You might want to rethink a decision involving your daily life and finances. Tonight: Do some shop-

tise, and hearing aids work differently for each person. It is always best to be evaluated, fitted and tested by an audiologist, who will discuss available styles and features and also ask about your lifestyle (e.g., how much of your day you spend on the telephone, in restaurants, watching TV, etc.) and explain that it can take time for your brain to process the new audio information. If you are a veteran, you can get assistance through the VA. Others should look for an otolaryngologist (ear, nose and throat specialist) who has an audiologist on staff.

Please see whether your current contract allows you to return the hearing aids for a total or partial refund. Also contact the Hearing Loss Association of America (www.hearingloss.org) for additional information and help.

Syrian opposition coalition falls into disarray

By Ben Hubbard and Jamal Halaby Associated Press

BEIRUT â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Syriaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Western-backed opposition plunged into disarray on Sunday as its president resigned and its military leader refused to recognize a prime minister recently elected to lead an interim rebel government.

The chaos inside the opposition Syrian National Coalition threatened to undermine its bid to unite the forces battling President Bashar Assad and better organize the fight to oust his regime. It also could hamper support from the U.S. and other powers, who have hoped the Coalition would emerge as the most credible body to channel aid to anti-Assad groups inside Syria and undermine the Islamic extremists who dominate the fight on key fronts of the nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s civil war.

As the oppositionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s political leadership stumbled, rebel fighters inside

Syria pressed ahead Sunday with their offensive in a restive southern province that borders Jordan.

Also, Israelâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s military said its forces in the occupied Golan Heights responded to fire across the border by shooting at a target inside Syria.

In his surprise resignation sunday, coalition President Mouaz al-Khatib expressed frustration with the both the international community and the opposition body itself.

Al-Khatib, a respected preacher who has led the coalition since its creation late last year, said in a statement posted on his Facebook page that he was making good on a vow to quit if certain undefined â&#x20AC;&#x153;red linesâ&#x20AC;? were crossed. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I am keeping my promise today and announcing my resignation from the National Coalition so that I can work with freedom that is not available inside the official institutions,â&#x20AC;? he said.

He also blamed world

powers for providing what he deemed insufficient support for the rebel cause, and complained that many â&#x20AC;&#x153;international and regional partiesâ&#x20AC;? have insisted on pushing the opposition toward dialogue with the regime.

Most opposition leaders and activists say Assadâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s regime has killed too many people to be part of a solution to the conflict. â&#x20AC;&#x153;All that has happened to the Syrian people â&#x20AC;&#x201D; from destruction of infrastructure to the arrest of tens of thousands to the displacement of hundreds of thousands to other tragedies â&#x20AC;&#x201D; is not enough for an international decision to allow the Syrian people to defend themselves,â&#x20AC;? the statement said.

Despite electing a new, U.S.-educated prime minister to head a planned interim government last week, the coalition has failed to establish itself as the top opposition authority on the ground in Syria, where hundreds of independent rebel brigades

The coalitionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s media office distributed alKhatibâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s statement, but did not comment on how

his replacement will be chosen.

Al-Khatibâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s spokesman, Ali Mohammed Ali, confirmed the authenticity of the statement in a phone

call with The Associated Press. He declined to discuss any issues inside the coalition that could have influenced al-Khatibâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s decision.

Kerry warns Iraq on allowing Bill aims to decrease mistaken IDs Iranian planes passage to Syria

By Shaun Hittle

By Matthew Lee Associated Press

BAGHDAD â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The U.S. has made clear to Iraq that it shouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t allow Iran to use its airspace to ship weapons and fighters to Syria, U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry told reporters Sunday during an unannounced trip to Baghdad.

Kerryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s comments come as U.S. lawmakers are calling for President Barack Obama to do more to stop the bloodshed in Syria, including possible airstrikes against Syrian President Bashar Assadâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s aircraft fleet. U.S. officials say ongoing efforts to aid opposition groups in Syria have been undermined

by Iran, which is using Iraqi airspace without objections by Iraq.

On Sunday, Kerry said Iraqâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tacit approval of Iranian overflights left the American people â&#x20AC;&#x153;wondering how it is a partner.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;I made it very clear

Capitol

that for those of us who are engaged in an effort to see President Assad step down ... anything that supports President Assad is problematic,â&#x20AC;? Kerry said following a private discussion with Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki.

The Republican chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, Rep. Mike Rogers of Michigan, on Sunday called for a greater U.S. presence in the Syrian conflict to prevent chemical and conventional weapons from falling into the wrong hands. He said the U.S. should create a â&#x20AC;&#x153;safe zoneâ&#x20AC;? in northern Syria that would give the U.S. more leverage with opposition forces. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t mean the 101st Airborne Division and shipsâ&#x20AC;? are deployed, Rogers told CBSâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; â&#x20AC;&#x153;Face the Nation.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;It means small groups with special capabilities re-engaging the opposition so we can vet them, train them, equip them so they can be an ef-

When asked if that wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t a mandate, Merrick said he felt it was necessary for the child to succeed in school. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If I had my way, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d have to pass a test to get out

fective fighting force.â&#x20AC;?

Rogersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; comments reflect an increasingly frustrated Congress that sees unrest in Syria as dangerous to U.S. interests. Last week, Sens. Carl Levin, DMich., and John McCain, R-Ariz., asked Obama in a letter to step up U.S. military efforts in the region, including destroying Assadâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s aircraft using precision airstrikes.

The overflights in Iraq have long been a source of contention between the U.S. and Iraq U.S. officials say that in the absence of a complete ban on flights, the U.S. would at least like the planes to land and be inspected in Iraq to ensure that they are carrying humanitarian supplies.

Former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton secured a pledge from Iraq to inspect the flights last year, but since then only two aircraft have been checked by Iraqi authorities, according to U.S. officials.

Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s next Most legislative action will be in conference committees and on the floors of the House and Senate.

A bill proposed in the Kansas Senate last month seeks to cut down on eyewitness misidentifications in criminal cases.

Senate Bill 190, proposed by Sen. David Haley, D-Kansas City, Kan., would set guidelines â&#x20AC;&#x201D; such as how many photos to use and how to display them to witnesses â&#x20AC;&#x201D; for police when conducting photo and live lineups.

Studies have consistently shown that how police conduct photo lineups can play a role in influencing witnesses and potentially steer them toward the wrong suspect, said David Dodge,

a policy analyst with the Innocence Project, a New York-based nonprofit that works to free the wrongfully convicted.

In Kansas, two men have been exonerated of crimes based in DNA evidence. One of those men, Joe Jones, was convicted of a 1985 rape in Topeka based primarily off mistaken eyewitness identification.

In the years since the Jones case, Topeka police have changed the way they conduct identifications, as have numerous other cities across the country.

In Jonesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; case, police used a one-sheet â&#x20AC;&#x153;six packâ&#x20AC;? photo array.

Topeka Detective Larry Falley said the department

now uses a one-photo â&#x20AC;&#x153;sequentialâ&#x20AC;? lineup, in which the witness is shown photos one at a time. This has several advantages, Falley said. In sequential lineups, witnesses are less likely to guess than when there are multiple photos shown at once.

The proposed legislation would make such practices mandatory across the state. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re seeing a steady march on this,â&#x20AC;? Dodge said of the movement toward such reforms.

The bill has been referred to the Senateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Judiciary Committee. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Reporter Shaun Hittle can be reached at 832-7173.

Budget blunders Kansas legislators are looking everywhere for funds to offset state income tax cuts.

A

s the state budget winds its way through the Kansas Legislature, legislators are proposing cuts that defy both logic and any sense of fair play.

Here are a few examples:

After placing a high priority and committing state funds to the Kansas University Medical Center’s successful quest to be designated as a National Cancer Center, AND after charging KUMC with increasing the number of doctors and nurses it graduates, the Kansas House has passed a budget that cuts the medical center’s budget by 4 percent or about $4.2 million. The 4 percent is an across-the-board cut for all state universities, which legislators maintain should be able to handle the budget reductions without increasing tuition.

In an effort to reduce the budget to operate state prisons, legislators are looking at a proposal that would give judges and probation officers more options in dealing with people who violate their probation or parole. A proposed law would establish a series of “graduated sanctions,” such as county jail time, that could be ordered before sending a violator to an overcrowded state prison.

A few years ago, the Kansas Department of Corrections operated nationally recognized programs to reduce “recidivism,” the return of paroled inmates to prison. Funds were cut, and those programs went away. Rather than spending money to help prisoners make it on the outside, the state is back to spending money — or having local counties spend money — to deal with increased probation and parole violations. It doesn’t seem like progress.

Legislators were looking at diverting $383 million over the next two years from Kansas Department of Transportation highway projects to fund other expenses, but, at least for now, the Houseapproved budget doesn’t include those funds. Has the state finally learned how hard it is to catch up on highway and other transportation expenses when repairs and projects are delayed? Maybe, but the budget isn’t done yet.

In the “fairness” category, let’s look at the Kansas Department of Wildlife and Parks. In recent years, KDWP officials have heeded the state’s instruction to make their operation less dependent on state funds by taking such steps as raising the age at which a Kansas resident can obtain a free hunting or fishing license. Starting Jan. 1, 2013, the age for a free license rose to 75, instead of 65.

Now, state legislators, looking for money in every corner, have found $500,000 in the KDWP’s cabin rental fund and decided they want to sweep that money into the state’s general fund to be used for nonpark expenses. Park officials say the cabin fund was at an unusually high level awaiting spring maintenance projects. KDWP was making an honest effort to try to deal with millions of dollars in state budget cuts in recent years, and when it manages to put aside $500,000 for maintenance projects, legislators decide they have better uses for that money.

The income tax cuts approved by the Legislature last year and further tax cuts proposed by both legislators and the governor this year have put lawmakers in a tough financial spot — a spot that could encourage some imprudent and pennywise-pound-foolish decisions that could hurt the state for years to come.

McCain steps back from partisan cliff WASHINGTON — Sen. John McCain’s “Straight Talk Express” has been in the repair shop for a while, but it sure was rolling last week during an interview.

The main theme was that Republicans should end their selfisolation and “start working for the American people.”

Journalists have always had a soft spot for McCain when he’s in the mode of bipartisan conciliator. And I don’t want to overstate the evidence of an hour-long conversation the other day in McCain’s Senate office. He remains a complex and mercurial man whose support for centrist policies has ebbed and flowed over the years. But he’s definitely in outreach gear right now.

What seems to perturb McCain most is some Republicans’ willingness to harm the military as part of “sequestration” budget cuts. You can hear the Vietnam veteran and former POW speaking when McCain describes the military impact as “so appalling I can’t describe to you how upset I am.”

The Arizona Republican denounces congressional moves that will idle Navy carriers and reduce the readiness of the Marine Corps. Meanwhile, he complains that the “continuing resolution” will spend $5 million on a needless Pentagon science program for elementary schools and $11 million on a volunteer civil

“

This tirade about pork-barrel spending is vintage McCain, but what’s interesting is that much of the ferocity is toward his own party.

Why is the GOP bending toward its isolationist wing?

McCain says the party is suffering from “war weariness,” and from its continued stress on spending cuts to the exclusion of other issues.

Early in the interview, McCain mentioned that he has been talking with President Obama about immigration re-

form. When I asked if he had also raised Syria, where McCain has been sharply critical of administration passivity, he said no: “I don’t want to get into an argument with the president.” That’s interesting for a combative man who often can’t resist a zinger.

McCain said he is talking bipartisanship now because “I really believe the American people are fed up.” He joked about a survey showing that Congress is less popular with the public than a colonoscopy as evidence that “we are really in serious trouble,” and that “Americans want us to work together.” He pointed to compromises he’s trying to work out with Senate Democrats such as Carl Levin, Chuck Schumer and even Majority Leader Harry Reid.

During Obama’s first term, McCain says he tried to reach out on issues such as immigration, and was spurned. But here, too, he is self-critical: “I will admit to not cooperating as much as I should have.” He says he’s now eager to work with Obama on immigration reform, campaign finance, sequestration, and a “grand bargain” on budget issues.

“The president and I have established what I believe is a working relationship,” McCain said, citing his role in Obama’s celebrated dinner with Republican senators at

the Jefferson Hotel this month.

McCain said many other prominent Republicans share his view that it’s time to walk back from the partisan cliff.

“There is an attitude change on the part of people who want to get this done for the American people. All politicians crave approval. That’s part of our DNA. When there’s such strong disapproval, that has an effect.”

“The Republicans have a problem,” he added bluntly.

“The president’s (approval) numbers are going down, but not nearly as much as the Republicans’.” He cited the unsuccessful GOP Senate campaigns last November of Richard Mourdock in Indiana and Todd Akin in Missouri as evidence that “if we nominate people outside the mainstream, we’re going to pay for it.”

What accounts for McCain’s new tone, and the return of the happy warrior of the center?

Certainly, he’s prickly about recent comments that his jihad against Hagel showed he had become “bitter” or “angry.” Not so, he insisted. After surviving torture in a North Vietnamese prison and cancer surgery, “I’m the luckiest man who ever lived. I should have gone a long time ago. I don’t want to look back on any wasted days.”

PUBLIC FORUM

Personal interest

Baseball far from dead

By Gene A. Budig

During my tenure as president of Major League Baseball’s American League (19942000), I encountered critics who espoused the belief that baseball was doomed, near death, actually. “Those people have gone away,” Commissioner Bud Selig told me in a recent conversation about the state of the game. The reasons for their departure are compelling, as Selig freely predicts: Revenues for MLB will easily top $8 billion in 2013; they reached $7.5 billion in 2012.

Regular season attendance will jump again in 2013, surpassing last season’s regular season count of 74,859,268 and that milestone will surpass the combined attendance of the National Football League, the National Basketball Association, and the National Hockey League.

The values of almost all of the 30 franchises will continue to climb and at a steady rate. The New York Yankees are valued at $1.85 billion, tied with the Dallas Cowboys of the NFL in the Budig sports enterprise.

Fans from coast to coast can expect tight races in 2013 because of real competitive balance through revenue sharing, resulting in two-thirds of the teams still competing for post-season competition as late as Labor Day. And some fans can expect lower ticket prices, too.

The Philadelphia Phillies led the National League in attendance for 2012 (3,565,718) with the Yankees drawing (3,542,406) in the American League. Nine clubs drew more than three million fans last season, while another 13 eclipsed the 2.3 million mark.

One of Major League Baseball’s principal assets for continued growth can be found in the minor leagues where 41,279,382 witnessed regular season games in 2012, and a disproportionate number of the attendees were youngsters.

“We play a significant role in introducing the game to future generations,” Pat O’Conner, president of Minor League Baseball, told me.

“Most families can afford what we offer, and we offer a lot: reasonably priced tickets, special games and giveaways for kids, ballpark food and beverages, and exciting professional baseball. We entertain on and off the field.”

He foresees another climb in attendance, perhaps by a much as a million. He also says most ticket prices will remain low and attractive to cash strapped families.

Selig also believes that minor league baseball is “central to the well-being of the game.

In truth, we must grow together.”

The two baseball heads contend that the minors have done much to reach out to grow the game for Major League Baseball and organized youth leagues across the country.

Virtually all major and minor leagues will be playing in new or recently renovated ballparks with up-to-date amenities in 2013.

There are 15 minor leagues with 176 clubs, and with a line of individuals who have expressed interest in possible ownership.

In recent years, the globalization of America’s pastime has come of age, Selig likes to remind, with growing markets such as Puerto Rica, Mexico, Cuba, the Dominican Republic and Venezuela. Promising players from Latin America, among the first to come to the United States in growing numbers, have met with success, athletes like Robinson Cano, the Yankee slugger and an ideal ambassador for the increasingly global game. Next came the Japanese, Taiwanese, and South Koreans, offering MLB potential standouts. The always talent-seeking Los Angeles Dodgers discovered and signed Hideo Nomo from Japan, who met with instant success.

Today every MLB team has scouts in Asia and the game is seeing promise in China and Australia.

The commissioner did acknowledge that the pace of game remains a problem, and that it needs to be further addressed, a perennial complaint of the fans and especially among the younger generation. Famed managers Tony LaRussa and Joe Torre will be working with the commissioner on the nagging matter. MLB will be accelerating efforts in urban America to persuade more youngsters to select baseball as their game of choice.

On a recent flight to New York City, I asked a flight attendant for an extra copy of its magazine, featuring Robinson Cano and the upcoming baseball season. The magazines were gone.

Perhaps that should tell us something, maybe a lot.

— Gene A. Budig served as chancellor/president at three major state universities, including Kansas University, and of Major League Baseball’s American League.

To the editor: Kudos to Robert Evans Sr. for giving voice to an important message (“Party plaint,” Public Forum, March 20). Yes, indeed, what has happened to the Grand Old Party we once paid heed to and respected?

The modern day conservative heart has been frozen solid for a number of years and only thaws slightly when a close family member is affected.

Sen. Rob Portman and Dick Cheney would surely oppose same sex marriage if their children were not involved. A Republican senator only became an advocate of mental health clinics when his son committed suicide, and those who are opponents of abortion in all cases will change their minds once a daughter is a victim of rape or a life-threatening pregnancy.

Sadly, it might take a horrific personal tragedy at a school, theater, restaurant or shopping center for a legislator to give some thought to enacting sensible gun laws. Let me assure you, however, that once that tragedy strikes close to home, you will never forgive yourself. That’s something for our Kansas delegates to think about before they cast their votes.

KANSAS 70, NORTH CAROLINA 58

BETTER HALF

Releford, KU roll after break

By Gary Bedore

gbedore@ljworld.com

KANSAS CITY, MO. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Bill Self, who has an even 300 coaching victories at Kansas University in 10 seasons, has given a rousing halftime speech or two to his players in that span.

He also has been smart enough â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and flexible enough â&#x20AC;&#x201D; to defer to others in the oratory department when the need arises. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We can do better. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re better than this,â&#x20AC;? Self said of Sundayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s message at halftime to his No. 1-seeded Jayhawks, who trailed No. 8-seed North Carolina by a whopping nine points. He then told his players to talk amongst themselves, a strategy that apparently proved pivotal in a 70-58 comeback victory in Sprint Center that propelled KU into a Sweet 16 contest against Michigan at 6:37 p.m. Friday in Arlington, Texas. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I said, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;This could be our last 20 minutes. We can go out there and leave it all on the court, or we can roll over like we did the first half,â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;? said senior Travis Releford, who hit four of five shots the first half, the rest of the team going 3-of-23 as KU lagged, 30-21, at the break.

Releford exploded for 13 points the second half off

KANSAS UNIVERSITY SENIOR TRAVIS RELEFORD CELEBRATES DURING A TIMEOUT in the second half. Releford had a game-high 22 points as the Please see KANSAS, page 4B Jayhawks rallied from a nine-point halftime deficit to beat North Carolina, 70-58, on Sunday at Sprint Center in Kansas City, Mo.

UP NEXT O Kansas will face Michigan at 6:37 p.m. Friday in Arlington, Texas.

It will air on TBS.

Tharpeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s good outweighs his bad for KU KANSAS CITY, MO. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Kansas University basketball coach Bill Selfâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s emotions took a wild spin on a tilta-whirl ride Sunday, and sophomore guard Naadir Tharpe was behind the wheel, making his coachâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s expressions scream â&#x20AC;&#x153;No!â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Yes!â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;No!â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Oh no!â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Oh

no, not again!â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Yes!â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Yes!â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Yes!â&#x20AC;?

While others sweated watching him, Tharpe played with the confidence of a man convinced that in the end everything would be just fine. He made sure of it. Mixing addled plays with brilliant ones, Tharpe had

far more of the latter and helped Kansas storm from 11 points down to reach the Sweet 16 with a 70-58 victory against North Carolina.

On a day KU seniors Jeff Withey and Travis Releford relentlessly dominated at both ends in the second half, Kansas needed one of its

underclassmen to join the party. On this day, it wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t going to be Ben McLemore (0-for-9, two points) or Perry Ellis (1-for-3, three points).

Tharpe answered the call, overshadowing his spills

Point guards key for KU, South Carolina women

By Sarah Kuta Special to the Journal-World

BOULDER, COLO. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; When Kansas University faces South Carolina in the second round of the NCAA womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s basketball tournament, Gamecocksâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; coach Dawn Staley said the game will come down to the teamsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; point guards.

In the teamsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; first-ever meeting, Kansas senior An-

gel Goodrich will match up with South Carolina senior Ieasia Walker, who was named Southeastern Conference Defensive Player of the Year and led the Gamecocks in their first-round victory over South Dakota State with 15 points and four assists. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We both have pretty good point guards,â&#x20AC;? said Staley, a three-time Olympic gold medalist for USA Basketball. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Whoever wins that point

guard match-up will probably win the game.â&#x20AC;?

The Jayhawks will take on No. 17 South Carolina at 8:30 tonight at the Coors Events Center.

Staley added that limiting Goodrich, the â&#x20AC;&#x153;engine that makes (Kansas) go,â&#x20AC;? will be the Gamecocksâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; primary focus. Goodrich averaged 23.3 points per game in the 2012 postseason and shot 50.8 percent, going 30-for-59 in

three NCAA Tournament games.

In Saturdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first-round game against Colorado, Goodrich tied teammate Carolyn Davis with a game-high 14 points and added eight assists and two steals.

Kansas coach Bonnie Henrickson agreed with her South Carolina counterpart, but she added Goodrichâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s teammates canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t leave the whole game to her.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;This time of the year, the game is controlled by your point guard,â&#x20AC;? Henrickson said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Both of us ask a lot of our point guards, and both of us are blessed to have really, really talented point guards, and mine makes me look pretty smart every dayâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;really smart, actually.

But other pieces have got to contribute.â&#x20AC;?

South Carolina (25-7) When: 8:30 tonight Where: Boulder, Colo.

| SPORTS WRAP |

Ben Howland out as UCLA hoops coach LOS ANGELES â&#x20AC;&#x201D; UCLA has fired Ben Howland as basketball coach after 10 seasons that included three Final Four appearances, but culminated with another early-round exit from the NCAA Tournament.

Busch avoids wreck in win at Fontana FONTANA, CALIF. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Kyle Busch earned his first victory at Fontana on Sunday after rivals Denny Hamlin and Joey Logano wrecked on the final lap in a thrilling NASCAR finish.

Hamlin and Logano made contact while they raced sideby-side in the final lap of their first race since the drivers confronted each other last week at Bristol. Logano hit the outside wall, and Hamlin hit the inside wall, with Hamlin leaving the course in an ambulance.

Tony Stewart then confronted Logano after the race and shoved the younger driver before teammates pulled them apart. Logano blocked Stewart out of a late restart.

Busch led the most laps and took advantage of his remarkable stroke of luck to pick up Joe Gibbs Racingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first victory at Fontana, the only track where the team had never won.

Storm stops play for day at Bay Hill ORLANDO, FLA. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Tiger Woods is going to have to wait one more day to try to reclaim the top spot in the world ranking.

Moments after Woods made a 10-foot birdie putt on the second hole, a thunderstorm packing gusts that topped out at 62 mph interrupted the final round of the Arnold Palmer Invitational and wiped out play until today.

The storm dumped nearly 11â &#x201E;2 inches on Bay Hill and formed small ponds in the fairways â&#x20AC;&#x201D; there was even a fish in the middle of the 18th fairway. The wind toppled the TV tower behind the 10th green, which was a pile of metal poles, wood, mesh netting and had a stationary camera in the middle of it all.

About an hour after a tornado warning expired, officials said they would need time to clean up the course and let it drain. The final round was to resume at 10 a.m. today.

Woods is going after his eighth win at Bay Hill, which would return him to No. 1 in the world ranking for the first time since the last week of October in 2010. He hit all of six shots on Sunday, enough to build a three-shot lead over Rickie Fowler, Keegan Bradley, John Huh and Ken Duke.

Former Kansas University golfer Gary Woodland finished with a final-round 71 on Sunday, leaving him 1-under and tied for 30th place.

No. 15 Fla. Gulf Coast 81, No. 7 San Diego St. 71 PHILADELPHIA — Florida Gulf Coast became the first 15 to reach the Sweet 16, and the Eagles not only made it look easy, they made it look fun.

Little-known FGCU beat San Diego State on Sunday night, its second NCAA Tournament upset of the weekend. Just like in their opening win over second-seeded Georgetown — the Eagles’ calling card to the nation — there were plenty of laughs, dunks and dances.

“We don’t take ourselves too seriously,” said Florida Gulf Coast coach Andy Enfield, whose players tossed him in the air and doused him with water in a raucous celebration before his postgame interviews. “We try to have fun, get serious when we have to.

“Our goal was to make history, and we did it.”

With its campus in Fort Myers, Florida Gulf Coast opened its doors to students in 1997. The university only became eligible for postseason play last year. Now the next opponent for the upstart state school will be the main campus, third-seeded Florida, on Friday night in the South Regional semifinal in Dallas.

“We tried to scrimmage them early in the season in the preseason,” Enfield said. “Now we get our shot,” Bernard Thompson had 23 points, and Sherwood Brown added 17 for FGCU, the Atlantic Sun champion.

In its first-ever NCAA Tournament game on Friday, the 15th-seeded Eagles busted brackets everywhere with their win over Georgetown, a game in which the Eagles took control with a 21-2 run in the second half.

It went much the same way against seventh-seeded San Diego State.

This time the run was 17-0, and Brown, who was saddled early in the second half with foul trouble, had eight of the first 10 points of it. When it was over, the Eagles led 71-52 with 4:19 to play, and the only decisions left were how the players and fans were going to celebrate.

Brown stuck out his tongue after every big basket, often in the direction of the hundreds of Eagles fans jammed into one section.

Even when the game was tight, he and his teammates looked like they were glad to be on the court. The Eagles waved their arms and played along with a lively crowd that came to see an upset.

There were big smiles and high-fives.

In short, they showed a kind of joy that’s often missing from high-stakes, high-drama games in March.

“We’re all about having fun and also playing really hard, and that’s something we like to do, we like to get the crowd involved,” said Brown, the A-Sun’s player of the year. “The whole crowd got behind us even if they are not from Fort Myers, or as I like to say, Dunk City.”

The notoriously tough Philly fans sure loved them back. One seated behind the FGCU bench held a sign — “Fly, Eagles, Fly!” — the motto of the NFL team that plays across the street from the Wells Fargo Center.

And after it was all over, the whole team joined in a bird dance that the players on the bench had been doing during the game.

“I know I can say for all the players, this was the biggest game for us.

None of us have played on this stage,” point guard Brett Comer said. “We are blessed to be here.”

FGCU played like it had nothing to lose. And,

E '?:;? FE -F ":S?\?S JI A"

really, the Eagles didn’t.

Given their school’s short history, nobody expected them to win a game at the NCAA Tournament, let alone two.

“They play with a swagger, and they have a right to do that,” said San Diego State coach Steve Fisher, who knows about players with attitude, having led the Fab Five to consecutive national championship games at Michigan.

“You can have that look and feel, but you have to compete and play to earn your spurs, and they’ve done that.”

Comer, who didn’t have as many lob passes for dunks as he did against the Hoyas, finished with 10 points and 14 assists, some of which resulted in dunks that had the crowd cheering and wanting more.

“We want to get out and run,” Comer said. “We’re just having so much fun.”

FGCU even unleashed another offensive weapon.

Christophe Varidel, a native of Switzerland, hit two big threes early for the Eagles and finished with 11 points after going scoreless against Georgetown.

“If we can get him open shots, he’s as good a shooter as I’ve seen,” Enfield said. “He stepped up tonight and helped us, and we needed that because Sherwood Brown was in early foul trouble.”

Jamal Franklin had 20 points and 11 rebounds for the seventh-seeded Aztecs (23-11), who were trying to reach the regional semifinals for the second time in three years.

Franklin spoke with Brown after the game.

“I just told him just keep being the leader that he is, make sure the ball is in his hands, make sure he does what he has to do to keep his team rolling,” Franklin said.

No. 3 Florida 78, No. 11 Minnesota 64 AUSTIN, TEXAS — Mike Rosario scored 25 points, and Florida used an overpowering first half to roll past Minnesota and into the NCAA Tournament Round of 16 for the third consecutive year.

The Gators (28-7) shot a blistering 65 percent in the first half and led by 21 by halftime.

Andre Hollins scored 25 points to lead the Gophers (21-13). Hollins’ threepoint shooting sparked a second-half rally that pulled Minnesota within seven points, but Rosario’s sixth three-pointer with three minutes left pushed the Gators’ lead back to 16 and effectively locked up the win.

West Regional No. 2 Ohio State 78, No. 10 Iowa State 75 DAYTON, OHIO — Aaron Craft made a last-second, tie-breaking three, and Ohio State remained the lone high seed left in the NCAA Tournament’s most-busted bracket.

Ohio State (28-7) needed Craft’s only threepointer of the game — an arching shot over 6-foot-7 defender Georges Niang from the top of the key — to avoid yet another upset in the oh-so-wild West Regional. Four of the top five seeds fell fast and hard in the first weekend.

Craft left the Buckeyes in position to fritter away a late lead with some missed free throws, then saved them in the final second.

Craft also drew a charge on Iowa State’s Will Clyburn near the basket with 1:41 on a play that could have put the Cyclones up by three. It was a close call. Replays showed Craft’s right heel was at

the semicircle restricting the area where players can take a charge.

Ohio State’s 10th straight win sent the Buckeyes into the Round of 16 for the fourth straight year, a school record.

They’ll play sixth-seeded Arizona on Thursday in Los Angeles.

Ramon Galloway had 24 points for La Salle (24-9), which was playing its third game in five days. Ole Miss (27-9) led 74-72 with 1:58 left but failed to reach the regional semifinals for the first time since 2001.

NORTH CAROLINA COACH ROY WILLIAMS WATCHES THE FINAL SECONDS of the Tar Heels’ loss.

Roy: Every loss hurts

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

KANSAS CITY, MO. — For the first time in his three match-ups with his former school, North Carolina basketball coach Roy Williams watched his team be the more physical one during Sunday’s thirdround NCAA Tournament showdown at Sprint Center.

By game’s end, however, the scene was the same as it had been after the first two meetings in 2008 and 2012 — an emotional Williams sitting at the podium congratulating Kansas and talking about the disappointment of another season finished.

“The fact that I coached there for 15 years is extremely important to me,” Williams said following KU’s 70-58 victory Sunday. “But it doesn’t add anything today. I hurt for myself. I hurt for the kids in the locker room. The fact that it was Kansas … you know, (in) 1990 we lost to UCLA in the second round. I’m still pissed off about that because we were pretty doggone good. I remember UTEP in ’92, Virginia in ’96 (actually 1995). I can name every one of them. Every one of them hurt. That’s it.”

After the game, North Carolina’s players saw their coach’s 0-3 record against KU two ways.

“It hurts a lot,” senior Dexter Strickland said. “I know how much it means to him, but I don’t think we were as focused on how much it means to him as we were just trying to get to the Sweet 16.”

Added sophomore guard P.J. Hairston: “I don’t think it’s just about beating Kansas. It’s about winning, period. We wanted to win him a championship. And, unfortunately, it didn’t end the way we wanted it to.”

For 20 minutes Sunday, it looked as if Williams might finally break his personal losing streak to the Jayhawks. North Carolina (25-11) raced out to a 12-2 lead, was by far the more aggressive team and led 30-19 late in the half before taking a 30-21 lead into the locker room at the break.

That all changed quick-

Kansas CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B

5-of-8 shooting, finishing with 22 points and eight rebounds in what Self called, “the best game he’s ever played.”

Releford wasn’t fired up by his own words, but by those of senior center Jeff Withey, who scored 16 points and grabbed a season-high 16 rebounds.

Nursing a shiner under his right eye after the game — he took an elbow from James Michael McAdoo (11 points, 5-of-19 shooting) — Withey admitted he was on fire at the intermission.

“We looked at each oth-

ly, though, when the teams returned to the floor for the second half, as Kansas started the second 20 minutes with a 16-3 run and led by 12, 50-38, less than 10 minutes into the final frame.

“I felt like we were fine at halftime,” Hairston said.

“We were definitely all over the place on defense, causing a lot of turnovers (12), and we thought we could come out in the second half and do the same thing. But when we came out, Kansas was the aggressor.”

With every KU bucket, the pro-Kansas Sprint Center crowd grew louder, fueling the Jayhawks’ 49-28 second-half onslaught.

“Yeah, it felt like we were playing at Kansas,” UNC junior Reggie Bullock said.

Both teams shot terribly in the first half, with Kansas making just seven of 28 shots (25 percent) and UNC hitting just 11 of 42 (26.2 percent). But the Jayhawks (31-5) caught fire in the second half, shooting 63 percent (17-of27) to finish at 44 percent for the game.

UNC remained ice-cold, finishing just 22-of-73 (30 percent) for the night.

For the umpteenth time this season, KU center Jeff Withey played a huge role, forcing KU’s opponent to shoot such a poor percentage. In addition to his 16 points and 16 rebounds, Withey blocked five shots and altered countless others.

“When I got into the lane, I was worried about the shot-blocker too much,” Bullock admitted after the game.

Added UNC big man James Michael McAdoo: “I think (Withey) does a great job of working with his guards, not really leaving the rim that much, which made it really hard to finish a lot of plays.”

The victory moved the Jayhawks into the Sweet 16 for the third consecutive season and, for the second year in a row, sent Williams home with a heavy heart.

“Congratulations to Kansas,” Williams said.

“They were phenomenal in the second half today. ...

They’re a No. 1 seed for a reason.”

er. We said, ‘Is this how it’s going to be? We’re just going to lose? Or we’ll play our butts off and win.’

I wasn’t going to let us lose,” Withey said.

Senior forward Kevin Young, who scored 10 points and grabbed nine rebounds with five of KU’s 22 turnovers, outlined the details of Withey’s passionate speech.

“Coach yelled at us a little bit,” Young said, “then Elijah (senior guard Johnson, five points, 1-of6 shooting with four assists, two turnovers) asked, ‘What are we going to do to change this?’ I said, ‘Win.’ “Jeff motivated us, going down the line saying, ‘This isn’t going to be our last game. He asked Ben (McLemore), ‘Is this going

to be your last game?’ He asked Elijah that; Travis that. We all said, ‘No.’” The Jayhawks’ actions backed up the halftime words.

Releford scored five points — including KU’s first three-pointer of the NCAA Tournament — in an 11-3 run that cut the deficit to 33-32 just 4:55 into the second half.

Releford had 12 points, Withey eight and Naadir Tharpe six (including a behind-the-back pass to Johnson for a layup) in a 29-8 surge to open the half. It gave KU a 50-38 advantage at 10:41.

Withey, who finished with five blocks, had a vicious block of a McAdoo shot. Also, Releford

We were so rushed and sped up and played nervous. They beat us to loose balls. Our basketball IQ was not very high, also. We puttered around.

Then, the second half we competed. We were great on the glass (50-36 KU edge for the game, 21-12 the second 20 minutes).”

He improved to 300-58 at KU and 507-163 overall.

“It wasn’t the prettiest way to get it,” Self said.

“Second half, I thought we competed so hard and were great on the glass. To get to 300 wins in 10 years is a reflection of having pretty good players. Of course, who woulda thought this year’s team would get to 31-5? Now we got to make sure we get to 32 and 33.”

had a key stickback of a McLemore miss.

McLemore played just six minutes the second half because of ineffective play.

The Jayhawks survived on a night the freshman sensation went 0-for-9 shooting, 0-for-6 from three.

“Ben labored this weekend,” Self said of McLemore’s play in victories over Western Kentucky and UNC. “He’s still our leading scorer. We’re going to go right back to him. There’s not going to be a situation with that. But when Naadir (12 points second half) came in, we were a better team.

We got the ball moving.

Ben was the best cheerleader out there. It wasn’t hard to not play him be-

cause he’s the best teammate on our team.”

Indeed, McLemore said, “I didn’t shoot well. I need to work on that this week, but my teammates played great the second half, and I had fun cheering them on.”

KU led, 54-40, with 8:35 left and 63-47 at 4:24, as the Jayhawks (31-5) ran away from Carolina (25-11) the second 20 minutes, 49-28.

Self was mighty happy his team figured a way to go from shooting 25 percent the first half to 63.0 for the second. The Jayhawks finished at 43.6 percent and held Carolina to 30.1 percent marksmanship.

“The lid came off,” Self said. “We played miserably the first half. They took us out of everything.

KANSAS GUARD NAADIR THARPE (1) THROWS IN A THREE-POINT BASKET during the second half of the Jayhawks’ 70-58 victory over North Carolina in the Round of 32 of the NCAA Tournament on Sunday in Kansas City, Mo.

Gary Bedore’s KU basketball notebook ‘We’ve been fortunate’ Kansas University basketball coach Bill Self wasn’t gloating Sunday after leading the Jayhawks to their third victory in three tries against his predecessor Roy Williams’ North Carolina Tar Heels.

“We’ve been fortunate the three times we played them since I’ve been at KU,” Self said after a 70-58 victory in Sprint Center. A year ago, KU won, 80-67, in an Elite Eight battle in St. Louis. In 2008, KU prevailed, 84-66, in a Final Four semifinal in San Antonio.

“Last year was a coin-flip game that we made all the plays in the last four minutes. One-point game. We watched it today. Of course, we played great in 2008.

Today was not one of those games.

“I don’t think it’s coach Williams at all,” Self added.

“I think it would be anybody that’s on the other team, coaching the other team.

When things don’t go well, you can’t allow other teams

to play well. I thought that’s what happened tonight.

Even though we played miserably the first half (in falling behind 30-21), I thought they could have played better, too. At least we kept ourselves within striking distance.”

Solid defense KU senior Travis Releford held UNC’s Reggie Bullock to five points off 1-of-7 shooting.

“He did a great job on Bullock,” Self said. “The guy he’s checking who is right there as their leading scorer, gets five (points), and Travis gets 22. Of course, he’s so steady, and he’s a rock. He doesn’t get tired. He can play all day.”

Releford, who had 13 second-half points, hit KU’s first three-pointer of the NCAAs in a secondhalf-opening 11-3 run that stretched to 29-8.

“I was wide-open, stepped into it and took the shot,” Releford said of the bucket that cut the deficit to 30-26. “I wasn’t thinking,

steal the ball every time. So we just played to that.”

We came in the game with the right mind-set. But when things didn’t go well, Wesley hurts foot kind of got away from us.

Wake Forest’s Tim Duncan leads the all-time list with 50.

Withey has blocked 11 shots in two games during this year’s tournament after setting the NCAA single tournament record with 31 a year ago.

with thrills that chilled the partisan Kansas crowd.

A 5-foot-11 sophomore guard from Worcester, Mass., Tharpe scored all of his 12 points in a second half in which he made all three of his three-point shots. He also made three of four free throws in the half.

And then there were the plays that made his coach hold his head to keep it from exploding.

Instead of laying the ball in, Tharpe fired an off-target, behind-theback pass that Releford turned into a bucket, but that didn’t keep Self from pointing at Tharpe in frustration. Late in the game, Tharpe picked up one of his four turnovers on a five-second violation.

Tharpe’s most embarrassing moment, “will never happen again,” he vowed afterward. With Perry Ellis at the freethrow line ready to take a second shot, Tharpe was talking to Elijah Johnson about “how to defend the next play,” when he absentmindedly walked onto the three-point line, a lane violation. As soon as the whistle blew, a low, harsh voice shot through the still-silent arena. It belonged to Self.

Not long after that, Tharpe did what he had already done twice in the half. He stuck a dagger in North Carolina’s hopes.

KANSAS GUARD NAADIR THARPE ENCOURAGES APPLAUSE FROM THE CROWD as he leaves the court following the Jayhawks’ victory over UNC. His first three-pointer gave Kansas a sevenpoint lead, the second a 12-point lead, the third, of the step-back variety, a 13-point advantage with 5:24 remaining.

Tharpe spent much of the second half playing in place of McLemore, and when Tharpe checked out of the game in the final minute, Self gave him a hug and a pat on the back side and, according to Tharpe, Self told him, “You made some bone-headed plays, but, wow, you played great for us today.”

After the buzzer sounded and KU’s record improved to 8-0 in Sprint Center games this season, Self walked with Tharpe to the spot of his violation and repeated his message.

“He said the same thing about the bone-headed play, and once again he said, ‘You played great.

You really showed toughness.’”

Tharpe, who looked very much like an overwhelmed freshman a year ago, has played with so much confidence this season.

We all see Self shaking his head at Tharpe’s miscues during games, but we’re not privy to other moments when the coach tells him what he thinks of his game.

“He comes up to me a lot and talks to me about how he wants me to be aggressive and always tells me how I’m a good player and how I’m a great shooter,” Tharpe said. “When your coach tells you that, it’s hard for you not to play with confidence. He’s been here a long time, and he’s been around some great players. For him to say that to me, I feel like that’s how I have to play, and I need to do as much as I can to help him out.”

Not done with his 10th season at Kansas, Self has

won 300 games for the school. You don’t do that without knowing how to balance climbing all over every player’s imperfection daily in practice and games yet still managing to inflate your players’ confidence levels.

Tharpe and the rest of the team combined to make 25 percent of their shots in the first half, 63 percent in the second.

Tharpe shared Self’s first words at halftime, when Kansas trailed 3021: “Is this how you want it to end, going out like that?”

And what was his tone?

Tharpe smiled at the question.

“Come on,” he said.

“You guys know coach Self.”

Not nearly as well as Tharpe does. He knows him. He likes him. He doesn’t want to disappoint him. He did anything but that Sunday.

Kansas also will lean heavily on Davis, who most likely will battle with South Carolina sophomore forward Aleighsa Welch, the SEC’s top offensive rebounder. Both teams progressed to the second round by outscoring their opponents in the paint. Kansas scored 30 in the paint against Colorado, while South Carolina knocked down 42 inside against South Dakota State.

When Kansas (19-13) was selected as the 12th seed in the Norfolk region, many questioned whether the Jayhawks deserved to play in the NCAA Tournament at all.

first-round upset of Nebraska, Kansas is making a case for itself in the tournament.

“Kansas is showing why they are in the tournament,” Staley said. “If they can come in and play in the hostile environment like it was yesterday and win, they are much deserving. Anytime you can win on somebody else’s floor, it legitimizes you being here.”

Both teams are vying for back-to-back Sweet 16 appearances. Coming off an NCAA Tournament run to the round of 16 in 2012, the Gamecocks won a school-record 11 conference games this season, finishing fifth in the SEC. South Carolina (25-7) ranks fifth in the country in defensive points allowed, giving up only 49.5 per game.

“We just have to take care of the ball,” Goodrich said. “We know they are known for their defense and their physicalness.”

play again on Sunday in New Orleans.

With the home team Colorado out of the tournament, Kansas is expected to have the edge in fans.

Its strong alumni base in western Kansas and Colorado includes CU athletic director Mike Bohn and CU men’s basketball coach Tad Boyle.

On Saturday, Boulder received 10.6 inches of snow, and poor visibility shut down a 154-mile stretch of I-70 between Denver and the Kansas border.

With the interstate reopened and little snow in the forecast, Kansas fans are expected to show at the Coors Event Center tonight.

“Every time we go on the road, we look at our circle we have and play for each other,” Davis said. “No matter how many (fans) we have, whether we have five or 20, we are going to work hard, and we are going to play hard for whoever we have cheering for us.”

The backup pump can drain into the homeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s current drainage system, but installing a separate discharge path directly outside is preferred.

INSTALL A BACKUP SUMP PUMP

A

ny home that is dependent on a sump pump to stay dry should have a good backup plan. Installing a battery powered backup sump pump is a great solution.

Step 1: Choose a battery backup sump pump with an effective monitoring system and enough capacity to pump water up and out of the basement. Watchdog brand pumps offer alarms for battery and power issues as well as other common causes of pump failure.

Step 2: Purchase a deep-cycle marine battery to power the pump and enough acid to fill the battery.

Step 3: The backup pump can drain into the homeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s current drainage system, but installing a separate discharge path directly outside is preferred. Create a drainage plan and purchase the additional pipe and fittings needed for proper installation.

Follow Us On Facebook & Twitter

Step 4: Read the backup pump manufacturerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s instructions completely before proceeding.

Step 5: If the sump pump pit is wide enough, install the backup pump inside the pit alongside the existing pump. If the pit is too narrow, use two stainless steel hose clamps to mount an L-shaped metal bracket onto the existing discharge pipe slightly above the existing pump. Attach the base of the backup pump onto the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Lâ&#x20AC;? bracket with stainless steel nuts and bolts.

Secure the new pump into place above the old sump pump.

Step 6: Install a 1-foot section of PVC pipe straight up and out of the new pump.

Attach a check valve at the top of the pipe.

Set up the discharge path for the new pump, running the discharge pipe from the check valve to the outside or into the existing drainage system. Create a path

with the least amount of turns possible and angle all horizontal sections of pipe down and away from the pump. Do not glue any pipe or fittings together until later.

Step 7: Once the drainage system has been installed and the pump is securely in the pit, place the deep-cycle battery into position and fill it with acid. Wait 20 minutes and check the acid level. If necessary, add more acid. Press the cell caps into place and proceed with the final steps of pump installation, per the manufacturerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s instructions.

Step 8: When everything has been properly installed, test the battery system, the float system and the drainage system.

Glue the PVC fittings into place and let the rain begin. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Linda Cottin can be reached at go@ljworld.com.

Scuba instructor makes 300 dives per year, despite living in landlocked Lawrence

BY ADAM STRUNK

O

n a Wednesday afternoon, Dave Bach attempts to carry on a conversation, maneuvering past the toolboxes and acetylene tanks as he inspects vehicles in his auto shop.

The desk phone interrupts him again, and soon he’s holding the receiver and a cellphone to different ears, apparently conversing with both. The yellowed sign above him proclaims “Registered Volkswagen Technician” to the room smelling of gasoline.

The calls end, he gets a minute to breathe and picks up where he left off.

“It’s a shame what Asian nations are doing with shark fining,” he says, shaking his head. “It’s just a travesty.”

Bach cares deeply about ocean wildlife. He goes to his computer and starts to click through undersea pictures that look ripped from a National Geographic. He points out whale sharks, electric clams, lion fish and sea turtles.

“This one was taken two weeks ago in Cozumel,” he says smiling. “That 5-foot eel swam right underneath me as I was diving along.”

Oil and water have managed to mix in Bach, a world-traveling diver/mechanic living 750 miles from the nearest ocean.

His landlocked position hasn’t prevented him from diving the Galapagos, Cambodia, Indonesia and Mexico, or stopped him from opening up The Scuba Shack six years ago, out of the back of his auto repair business, Das Autohaus, 1045 New Jersey St. He sells dive equipment, organizes dive trips to Mexico and the Caribbean, and continues to work as an instructor.

His customer base varies from 60-yearold women hoping to fulfill a life goal to spring-break love birds wanting to get their diving accreditation out of the way before a vacation. He sees one or two people a day, and the business is growing, he says.

It’s still a side project compared with his busier auto shop, a sort of diving mission in middle-of-the-map Lawrence with Bach serving as an underwater evangelist.

John Young/Journal-World Photo

SCUBA SHACK OWNER DAVE BACH, right, helps 0 Smith, Lawrence, adjust her oxygen tank vest March 13 at the Lawrence Indoor Aquatic Center.

“I don’t think of it as teaching someone,” he says of his job. “I want to train divers. I want to train someone with a passion. I don’t want to train someone that goes one time and never goes again.”

He wants to spread the same passion that blossomed in him as a child watching “Sea Hunt,” an adventure television show that aired in the late ’50s.

“It always had something to do with the ocean, chasing people with spear guns and knives,” he said.

He didn’t actually make his first dive until his late 20s in 1976 and took to it like a fish to — well, you get the picture.

He spent the next three decades diving with every sort of ocean specimen of ocean life imaginable: North Pacific octopus, stonefish, bull sharks, nurse

sharks, tiger sharks.

“It’s like skiing, it’s like skydiving, it’s like flying. If you are an adrenaline junky or someone who enjoys the outdoors, it’s the perfect sport. You are always going to some warm water tropical place and, I mean, what’s wrong with that?”

Time passed, and Bach eventually settled down in Lawrence opening his auto shop in 1999. Since then, he has amassed a pretty impressive collection of retro Volkswagen buses, which he restores and sells. But he hasn’t slowed down as a diver and still makes an estimated 300 dives a year, both training students and traveling abroad.

“I’m a platinum pro diver,” he said explaining that the distinction recognizes the top percentile of divers, those who have made more than 5,000 dives in their

lifetime and contribute in some way to the sport of diving.

As the afternoon passes, he sits by his computer describing faraway lands, open seas and the beauty of the wildlife that inhabits them.

“A shark is just a big fish,” he says with a sort of disdain for all those propagating the fearful image that often accompanies the animal.

A man pops in wanting to buy a camper. The two talk for a while and Bach goes back to narrating his pictures.

He explains that if he can just get someone in a diving suit and experience what’s under the surface, they will likely fall in love with the sport.

He then gets up and gets back to working on his cars.

NEST & EGGS

Natural, homemade Easter crafts

BY MERYL CARVER-ALLMOND

W

hen I was a child, Easter was synonymous with spring.

I know that we had to have had a few years that were cold or rainy, but I don’t remember them. I remember warmth and green grass and lengthening spring days that seemed to go on forever.

I remember hiding Easter eggs with my cousins — carefully dyed a few days before — for hours, until the eggs were so crumbly that the only thing to do was throw them at each other. That’s right, our parents let us have Easter egg fights!

As a grown-up, Easter The natural still feels like the real start dyes for the eggs of spring, but it seems like were a complete throwing eggs might be undignified. So instead, I “mad-science” set my hands to something experiment, and a bit more adult — a lifelike nest and some natu— if you try it rally dyed eggs to use as an Easter centerpiece.

While I decided to make a more natural-looking nest, you could easily weave in bright strips of cloth or yarn to make it more colorful.

The natural dyes for the eggs were a complete “madscience” experiment, and — if you try it — I encourage you to treat it the same way.

I used blueberries, beets, turmeric and the green tops from a bunch of radishes. The radish greens were disappointing, but the first three ended up bright and beautiful.

Other ideas for dye material? Red cabbage, onion skins, coffee, brightly colored spices like chili powder — dig around in your pantry and have fun.

Here are the full instructions.

NEST MATERIALS (Makes about a 12-inch diameter nest)

Garden clippers or wire snippers

Approximately 20 inches of chicken wire

Large mixing bowl to use as a mold

Garden twine, string, spare bits of yarn or fabric

Assorted thin sticks and twigs, cut to about 12 inches long and soaked in a sink of warm water for at least 15 minutes

Large safety pin

Moss (optional)

little retro and a whole lot of fun, cream cheese mints are the perfect way to keep little hands busy during Easter dinner preparations.

Consider making lemon mints, classic peppermints, or orange cream mints. You even could do mocha mints with coffee and chocolate extracts.

8-ounce block cream cheese

2 pounds powdered sugar

Flavorings or extracts of your choice

Gel food coloring (optional)

Superfine sugar In the bowl of a stand mixer, combine the cream cheese and about a quarter of the powdered sugar. Using the dough hook, begin mixing. As the mixture comes together, add the re-

maining powdered sugar, a quarter at a time, mixing well between each addition.

The dough also can be mixed by hand; treat it as though you are kneading bread dough. The mixture with be quite stiff.

Add 1/2 to 1 teaspoon of the flavoring or extract of your choice. Alternatively, you can divide the dough and make multiple batches, each with a different flavor. Once the flavoring is mixed in, add food coloring, mixing until evenly colored. As with the flavoring, the mixture can be divided and different colors can be used for each batch.

Pinch off pieces of the dough and roll into 1-inch balls. Roll the balls in the superfine sugar. Press the pieces into candy molds or press with a fork or the bottom of a glass to make a decorative impression on the tops. Place on waxed paper and allow to dry, uncovered, overnight. If keeping longer than a few days, place in an airtight container between sheets of waxed paper and freeze for up to 1 month.

PICKING A PRESCHOOL

How to find the right fit

BY EMILY MULLIGAN

C

oloring inside the lines. Singing the alphabet song. Playing on the swings. Stacking blocks.

These are often activities that come to mind when someone mentions preschool. Although preschoolers across Lawrence surely do these things every day, local preschools take different approaches to how they encourage their young students to learn.

Deciding which approach, curriculum and environment are right for each child can be challenging when presented with so many different options.

Here, we outline many choices available, and local early childhood experts help you decide if your child is ready for preschool, and what you, as parents, can expect from his or her preschool experience.

TYPES OF PRESCHOOLS

You probably have heard some of these terms, at least in passing: Montessori, pre-K, arts-based, Waldorf, Head Start. So, what is a typical school day like?

What do the children do?

Anna Jenny, executive director of the Douglas County Child Development Association, says there are three Montessori preschools in the area. In Montessori education, children learn different everyday tasks, and play revolves around those tasks, which are taught one-on-one as each child is ready for them.

“Montessori is a child-directed environment, where materials are laid out for the children to engage in on an individual basis, and the teachers work with children individually,” says Purviz Birdie, director of Lawrence Montessori School, who has taught for almost 30 years. “We hone in on what activities the child is ready to do, what activities they’re interested in. We ensure that each child is learning and being prepared at his or her own pace.”

Many preschools in Lawrence, including USD 497’s early childhood program, follow what Jenny calls a pre-K, or pre-kindergarten, approach, which involves different “centers” in the classroom with two to four

The centers include everything from reading and writing to science, building and dramatic play. Locally, many of the pre-K schools also follow the same reading and handwriting curriculum as the Lawrence public elementary schools.

“Our preschool offers a good balance of teacherdirected activities to learn to follow directions, but yet they also have center time where they’re initiating play and doing what they want,” says Jennifer Jones, director of First Five Years Preschool at First Presbyte-

WHAT TO LOOK FOR â&#x20AC;&#x153;The biggest thing is that the parents need to feel comfortable with the people taking care of their children and that the teachers know how to manage the classroom,â&#x20AC;? says Anna Jenny, executive director of Douglas County Child Development Association.

Jenny says that the arts-based approach to preschool is creative with the tools the children use to do artwork, and all of the activities revolve around the experience of creating some type of art project.

Waldorf schools aim to create a home-like environment with only natural playthings designed to spark the childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sense of imagination through play and some structured activities such as songs and crafts.

Head Start preschools require parents and families to meet eligibility requirements, Jenny says, such as income guidelines. She says that Head

READINESS Jenny says that being ready for preschool is more about a childâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s social and emotional skills than his or her academic abilities. Most children start preschool when they are 3 or 4 years old. She says that children who are isolated from other children should get into a preschool setting sooner rather than later. For children who regularly spend time with other kids, it may not be as urgent.

Birdie says that when the child exhibits a desire for independence, when he or she communicates the

desire to do it him or herself, that can signal that he or she is ready for preschool. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Is the child self-sufficient? Can they communicate their needs to a teacher? Can they clean up and put things away? Can they eat by themselves? Can they put on their coat and shoes? Can they be without Mom and Dad for three hours and understand that theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be back?â&#x20AC;? are examples of questions that Jones says can help determine if a child is ready for preschool.

WHAT TO EXPECT Once your child is attending preschool, what should parents be looking for â&#x20AC;&#x201D; both from the child and from the school?

Birdie says that once the students are acclimated, many of them just want to stay at school all the time. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have children cry when their parents come to pick them up. The children say they are not ready to go yet. That is what we want,â&#x20AC;? she says.

Once the parents bring their children home, Birdie says, the children often sing songs and do other activities from school. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Parents always tell us that their children start pointing out words and letters when they are reading with their parents, and that they show more independence at home,â&#x20AC;? she says.

Jones says that children should look forward to going to school because the teachers will be able to adapt to what each child wants to do and learn. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Within weeks, we learn the childâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s personality, and all of our teachers are good at catering to the childâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s personality and what they like best,â&#x20AC;? she says.

Do you think preschool is important for childhood development? â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think that part is and part isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t. To me itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s another way to get your money and a baby sitter.â&#x20AC;?

I’m not insisting you walk out the door in head-to-toe emerald, but learning ways to incorporate popular trends into your wardrobe is always a fashion must!

EMILY KENNEDY

TRY PANTONE’S COLOR OF THE YEAR

E

ach year, a new hue is coined color of the year by Pantone.

As it turns out, this year is the biggest thing for emerald since the Wizard of Oz was in the city. So naturally, I had to see what this color was all about.

Emerald is not necessarily “my color,” but knowing that it’s the color of the year, I couldn’t let it go by the wayside. I’m not insisting you walk out the door in headto-toe emerald, but learning ways to incorporate popular trends into your wardrobe is always a fashion must!

Surprisingly, I haven’t seen an overwhelming amount of emerald in stores or online. Pastel tones seem to saturate boutiques and department stores this season.

But after digging deeper through the racks, I found some versatile pieces that you can easily mix into your wardrobe throughout spring and summer.

There are two ways you can dress yourself in emerald this year.

You can either have an all-or-nothing attitude with a statement piece, or you can ease your way in with separates or accessories.

A striking emerald dress would definitely make a statement, and its one-piece appeal makes it easy to create an outfit. If you’re shy to the emerald color, try a colorblock dress so you can slowly introduce it into your style.

Accessorizing with a bold emerald piece is surprisingly simple.

Throwing on a bright bubble necklace against the rich emerald tone would brighten it up for spring and summer. If that’s a little too adventurous for you, then gold or rose gold accessories are perfect additions to the color.

Emerald comes in many shades, so when searching for separates, I wanted to find lighter pieces to match spring and summer colors. I also searched for pieces that can be dressed up or down to get the most out of them — a wise fashion rule you should always keep in mind.

A peplum tank top paired with skinny jeans or over a high-waisted pencil skirt is ideal for spring and summer.

Pieces with lace or crochet construction are right on trend, and the fact that they are covered in emerald is a double bonus. Tuck in a tank top or chambray shirt to these charming shorts, keeping them the center of attention.

Last but not least, emerald accessories are for those of you who want to wear the color of the year in a subtle way. Emerald earrings, rings, necklaces or even a pair of emerald heels are all fabulous options you could try without having to invest in a trend you may be hesitant to wear.

Documentary exposes todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s teen issues

Double TAKE

Dr. Wes: Talking to teenagers every day, I realize I have a lot higher threshold for awkward than most adults my age â&#x20AC;&#x201D; higher even than Katieâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s, as we see below. So I debated this week before recommending parents watch the new documentary â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sexy Baby.â&#x20AC;?

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s on at least through March on Showtime and from other sources via sexybabymovie.com. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rated TV-MA, which approximately equates to R, but it will stretch your comfort zone further than that rating suggests.

Double Take has always given parents a good estimate of where teen culture is on any given Monday morning, as well as where itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s headed.

Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve called most trends before theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve hit public consciousness, and while theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re still pretty uncomfortable. This list includes the rise of social media (anyone remember Xanga?), sexting (before it had a name), the emergence of cellphones for teens and later the centrality of texting, the marginal impact of online predation when popular media still considered it the primary Internet threat, the considerable influence of pornography on teen boysâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; education and teen girlsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; body image (remember that Brazilian waxing column?), hooking up as the current dating paradigm and numerous similar teen phenomena. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sexy Babyâ&#x20AC;? catches up to all this by examining how sexually explicit content online, in music, culture and fashion is truly, deeply affecting the way our kids think about themselves, their bodies, each other and sexuality. I pride myself on being neither a prude nor an alarmist about these things, but even I was a little taken aback by how graphically the documentary connected the same dots weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve addressed over the years.

Several reviewers note that the movie

DR. WES CRENSHAW AND KATIE GUYOT bites off more than it can chew. I agree, but so it goes with this topic. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s limitless.

Though often cringe-worthy, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sexy Babyâ&#x20AC;? is nonjudgmental, nonexploitative and respectful of the subjects â&#x20AC;&#x201D; a tiny needle to thread, indeed.

If you watch it, you can decide if your relationship with your older teen is open and honest enough to watch it again, together. But if you imagine this film will kick in previously unopened doors for your kids, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re either wrong or have unusually sheltered kids. This compelling, difficult content is genuinely reflective of what our kids experience living life in 2013.

And as Katie notes, thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s exactly what makes it uncomfortable to watch.

Katie: Warning: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sexy Babyâ&#x20AC;? made me nauseated. I missed quite a few shots while holding my face in my hands, peeking through my fingers to squint at the screen. After watching it, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m now genuinely nervous for todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s adolescents.

Although it centers on three very different protagonists â&#x20AC;&#x201D; a pole dancer, a wom-

an undergoing elective cosmetic surgery, and a 12-year-old girl, Winnifred, growing up in a highly sexualized culture â&#x20AC;&#x201D; â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sexy Babyâ&#x20AC;? allows viewers to gaze thorough a different lens at a society increasingly becoming like the fantasy universe weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve created on the Internet, leading them to question their own behavior and participation in it.

Perhaps because she is nearest my age, I resonate most with Winnifred, whose father proudly describes her as a smart girl interested in gymnastics, theater, writing and social justice. Over the course of the film, we follow her to age 14. Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s quit gymnastics and lost her Facebook privileges several times a month for posting racy photos.

At heart, Winnifred is a kindhearted and insightful girl, telling us toward the end, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I do want to change peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lives.

And Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not gonna do that by being sexy.â&#x20AC;?

The problem is that she, like all youths in the emerging digital age (whom she describes as â&#x20AC;&#x153;pioneersâ&#x20AC;?), is maturing in a paradoxical era in which teens are expected to adopt a previous generationsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; ethos in a culture that bombards them with a message that sexiness equals success.

Our peer groups are no longer restricted to our communities. When modern technology can exchange words and images instantly around the globe, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s impossible and even dangerous to pretend that we arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t influenced by the culture of sexuality that permeates our virtual and physical surroundings.

To confront this social phenomenon, we must first face and understand it, even if we peek between our fingers to get through the experience.

I encourage parents and teens to watch this documentary. In 80 minutes it generates a powerful awareness that will live long after the credits roll.

Rescue officials: Ducklings make foul Easter gifts

L

See answer next Monday!

-BTU XFFL T TPMVUJPO

OS ANGELES (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; A fluffy duckling might seem appealing next to a basket of Easter eggs, but shelter officials and animal welfare experts want gift-happy parents to picture something else: Poop.

The average domestic duck relieves itself once every 15 minutes, according to the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s why few people have ducks for pets â&#x20AC;&#x201D; except at Easter.

Yet millions of people have or will celebrate spring and Easter by getting their children a duckling, figuring they can release it in a pond when it gets too big to keep. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We usually get tons of calls right after Easter,â&#x20AC;? said Susie Coston, national shelter director for the Farm Sanctuary.

Duck diapers are available online, but it takes more than that to raise a duck, said Carol Chrysong, the 56-year-old founder of The Lucky Duck Rescue & Sanctuary in Los Angeles. The sanctuary is home to 120 of them, including a drake and two hens that Chrysong keeps as her pets, and the cleanup is exhausting, she said.

The upsides to keeping a duck as a pet include their surprisingly doglike behavior: greeting owners upon arrival (Muscovy ducks even wag their tails), learning tricks and being extreme loyal, she said.

One downside: Chrysong said ducks are in heat up to 10 months out of the year, so Special to the Journal-World â&#x20AC;&#x153;if you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to have the sex talk with your child, donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get a duck.â&#x20AC;?

SIMON, AN 8-YEAR-OLD GOLDEN RETRIEVER, models a pair Coston also discouraged ducks as pets, of glasses. He lives with Doug and Shannon Cloud, rural Overbrook, especially since they can live up to 20 years and is extremely intelligent and good natured. Shannon submitted the and more.
