WITH A LITTLE HELP FROM THEIR FRIENDS, preschoolers at the Lawrence Arts Center work to drain the last bit of water from a fire truck hose Monday outside the center. A fire truck and crew from Station No. 1 had been visiting the preschoolers until they were alerted to a fire call.

Gift to put ‘name and face’ to cancer care

By Giles Bruce gbruce@ljworld.com

TERESA AND TOM WALSH have donated $2.5 million to the KU Cancer Center.

Teresa Walsh knows the importance of quality cancer care, having watched her father fight the disease at Kansas University Hospital.

Years later, she and her husband, Tom, a 1980 KU graduate, are helping to advance cancer care in the area, giving $2.5 million to the KU Cancer Center’s nurse-navigation program, the hospital announced Monday.

Nurse navigators help cancer patients with everything from making appointments to emotional support. The Leawood couple’s gift will allow the hospital to hire five new nurse navigators, each specializing in

a different form of cancer. “It puts a name, a face and a person behind the experience at the University of Kansas Cancer Center before they even step foot in here,� remarked Physician-in-Chief Terry Tsue, who said the program is helping the facility become a model for National Cancer Institute-designated centers nationwide.

This isn’t the first time the husband-and-wife entrepreneurs have given to the KU Cancer Center. They founded the patient-navigation program with a $2 million donation in 2011. Because of the success of the initiative, the hospital decided to expand it.

The navigators are usually oncology nurses who have suffered from that specific

form of cancer themselves.

Tsue said that personal experience helps relieve anxiety in patients.

Nurse navigators are with patients from the time they are diagnosed, organizing their medical information so doctors can make the best possible decisions about their care, Tsue said. “As soon as you hear the word ‘cancer,’ you forget everything else,� he said. Nurse navigators are there to listen, he added, providing a vital link between doctor and patient.

The KU Cancer Center plans to hire 10 specialized nurse navigators and hopes to eventually have enough on staff so that every patient has one.

Intergenerational community plan moving ahead

By Chad Lawhorn clawhorn@ljworld.com

Lawrence’s efforts to become more of a retirement destination are set to kick into a higher gear in the coming weeks.

Local leaders confirmed

they plan to announce by the end of the month the creation of a new 15-member nonprofit board that would be tasked with creating a first-of-its-kind intergenerational retirement community in Lawrence.

Dennis Domer, who is

“I think people are getting excited about the possibility,� Domer said. “I think the university is excited about what could be accomplished, and I think the city and the county are too.�

TOPEKA â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Gov. Sam Brownback on Monday proposed using bioscience dollars to fund the startup and ongoing costs of the planned adult stem cell center at the Kansas University Medical Center.

Under Brownbackâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s plan, $1.154 million would be diverted from the Kansas Bioscience Authority next year to create the Midwest Stem Cell Therapy Center and $754,500 per year to maintain the center after that.

The proposal was part of numerous spending adjustments Brownback has sent Brownback to the Legislature, which reconvenes May 8 to put together a budget during the wrap-up session.

Last week, Brownback signed into law a measure establishing the adult stem cell center. KU did not ask for the bill, and legislators had failed to fund it.

The center is prohibited from using embryonic stem cells or cells taken from

LAWRENCE FATHER CHRIS BENNETT holds Jadari Lee, son of his friend Annette Rodriguez, left, as he peeks down the hallway while interacting with some other kids Thursday at the Lawrence Community Shelter.

Despite the hardship of being homeless while raising his own children, Bennett has volunteered to be a Strengthening Families Ambassador in an effort raise awareness about child abuse and ways of preventing it.

New community coalition working together to prevent child abuse

By Micki Chestnut Special to the Journal-World

Chris Bennett knows what itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s like to parent kids when youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re under a lot of stress. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a single dad experiencing homelessness, hunting for a job, applying to school and searching for affordable housing for his family. Sometimes, kids melt down and lose control. And, tragically, sometimes so do their parents, he observes. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sometimes kids get out of hand, throwing fits, and a lot of parents react negatively,â&#x20AC;? said Bennett, who is currently liv-

ing at the Lawrence Community Shelter with his two young boys. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There are times Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve seen child abuse â&#x20AC;&#x201D; not just physical abuse but also neglect. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m real protective of kids. I want to get it out there that itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not just physical abuse â&#x20AC;&#x201D; you canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t mentally abuse a child and expect them to grow up right.â&#x20AC;?

Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s why Bennett was quick to raise his hand to be a Strengthening Families Ambassador, one of nearly 100 volunteers fanning out in Douglas County during National Child Abuse Prevention

Month to catch parents and caregivers in the act of positively interacting with children and reward them. The initiative is one of several by the newly formed Douglas County Child Abuse Prevention Task Force, a group of more than 30 agencies led

by Douglas County Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA) that are working to raise awareness about child abuse and neglect, and prevent it from happening in the community.

Diana Frederick, executive director of Douglas County CASA, reported that the number of child abuse and neglect cases in Douglas County was rising substantially. The number of â&#x20AC;&#x153;child in need of careâ&#x20AC;? cases, which also includes truancy, increased by 52 percent between 2011 and 2012. So far, 2013 doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t look any better, she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In 2012, there were 110 new children in need of care cases filed. By the end of March 2013, we were already at

Q:

The lights in the roundabout at 28th and Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Connell Road have been out for several months after one in the roundabout was hit by a car. That light fell and damaged another light. The two remaining lights then ceased to work, leaving the area in total darkness. After a concern was raised about students having to cross there to get to the school bus stop in the darkness, one light was able to be turned on. When will the

remaining lights be fixed so the roundabout is fully illuminated?

A:

The city recently received the new poles for installation. City staff expect the project to be complete in approximately 30 days.

Protective Factors, shown by research to reduce the likelihood of child abuse and neglect when implemented by families, during a special training session led by Jenn Preston of the Lawrence-Douglas County Health Department and Cate Zimmerman of the Douglas County Child Development Association.

Then they were tasked with spotting parents and caregivers in the community who were practicing these skills, rewarding them with a small gift and verbal encouragement.

Armed with stickers and bookmarks, Bennett went to spots in town where kids donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t always act their best, such as grocery stores and fast-food restaurants. His goal was to encourage parents who practiced good parenting skills when their kids werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t on their best behavior.

It didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t take long. He observed a mom at Checkers calmly removing the bags of candy her child was tossing into the grocery cart. â&#x20AC;&#x153;She told her kid that if he acted well, heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d be rewarded. She would give him some candy,â&#x20AC;?

Bennett recalled.

The mom was a bit surprised when Bennett ap-

proached her and praised her parenting skills. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I told her she should get recognized for positive parenting, and she said, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;It made my day because I havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t had a real good day,â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;? he said.

In addition to the Strengthening Families Ambassador outreach, the Douglas County Child Abuse Prevention Task Force planted 300 pinwheels at the Douglas County Court House, Lawrence City Hall and Kansas University to represent the need to prioritize child abuse prevention. They are planning additional activities at KU to raise awareness.

The groupâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s efforts will have far-reaching, positive implications, Frederick predicted. Bennett agreed. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was touching to me to see so many people become Strengthening Families Ambassadors,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There are kids out there who really need it, and stuff like this will really help them out.

They will know somebody out there cares.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Micki Chestnut is director of communications for the United Way of Douglas County.

only 300 pounds. Saturdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s collection brought all kinds of offerings, from a resident with one or two pill bottles to a medical professional with several large boxes of expired drugs, said Sgt. Trent McKinley, a Lawrence Police Department spokesman. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Everyone seemed to want to do their part to see these medications didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t end up in the wrong hands, or in our water systems and landfills,â&#x20AC;?

McKinley said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was very much a community effort.â&#x20AC;?

About 1.5 billion doses of prescription drugs go unused each year, federal authorities say, leading to accidents and dangerous misuse. All of the drugs collected Saturday were placed in a secure box for destruction by the DEA.

50 cases,â&#x20AC;? Frederick said.

Alarmed by the trend, Frederick teamed up with the United Way of Douglas County to find ways to collaborate with other area agencies to raise awareness about child abuse and to prevent it.

One of the resulting goals of the task force is to help parents develop resilience, social connections, concrete support in times of need, knowledge of parenting and child development, and to promote the social and emotional competence of children â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the Five Protective Factors of the Strengthening Families Approach to parenting, which was developed by the Center for the Study of Social Policy. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I have to credit the United Way for providing the collaboration incentive and support that made this happen,â&#x20AC;? Frederick said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Keeping in mind the United Wayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s call to collaborate provided us the incentive to reach out to United Way partners and other agencies so we could have a more significant impact on child abuse prevention.â&#x20AC;?

First, Bennett and the other ambassadors learned about the Five

Ben Eggleston, professor, Lawrence â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think whatever we can do to attract people of any age is great, but it depends on the tradeoffs weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d have to make in other areas.â&#x20AC;?

A 53-year-old man reported to police that he was punched in the face by a stranger on Massachusetts Street in the early-morning hours Saturday.

The man was walking down the sidewalk in the 1100 block of Massachusetts Street about 2:05 a.m. Saturday when an unidentified male, whom he did not know, approached and asked the man whether he knew â&#x20AC;&#x153;what year it was,â&#x20AC;? said Sgt. Trent McKinley, a Lawrence Police Department spokesman. The assailant then punched the man in the face.

The victim did not give a detailed description of his attacker and declined medical treatment. Police have not located a suspect.

Police said this battery does not appear to be related to a similar incident last week.

â&#x20AC;˘ An accidental discharge of an aerosol self-defense spray Monday afternoon prompted a call for Lawrence-Douglas County Fire Medicalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hazardous material team to a Baldwin City senior citizen apartment complex.

Baldwin City Fire Chief Allen Craig said his department responded to the call at about 3 p.m. at Hancuff Place, 1016 Orchard Drive.

Craig said it wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t known how the spray was discharged or how much was released from the aerosol can. The can was removed from a womanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s apartment, he said.

The spray caused choking and irritation for a number of residents of the complex, Craig said. All refused transport to hospitals for treatment, but some were treated at the scene with bottled oxygen, he said.

The hazmat team was called to the scene to deter-

mine the contents of the spray, Craig said. Once that was determined, two fans were used to ventilate the complex.

Residents were allowed to return to their apartments shortly after 5 p.m., Craig said.

CORRECTIONS Susan Johnsonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s and Sarajane Scott Kochâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s names were incorrect in a photo caption in Mondayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Journal-World. They were pictured at a recent meeting of Leadership Lawrence.

shton Walker was in an energetic mood. On a recent day at the Lawrence-Douglas County Health Department, he crawled on the floor, lifted himself onto chairs and played with a ball.

As the Young Parents Group neared its end, 15-year-old Alli Lane got her baby, Annabelle, ready to go.

Ashton, ever the explorer, started climbing into her car seat.

Ashtonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s mom and dad didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t notice, so 21-year-old

Amber Calfy kneeled down and tried to distract him. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Come here, buddy,â&#x20AC;? she said.

In the past six months, the parents have become so close that they treat one anotherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s babies like their own. They share their insecurities, their secrets and their fears in the hopes of becoming the best mothers and fathers they can be.

There are many support groups across the country for young parents; Lawrence and Free State high schools have them, but only for students.

What makes this one unique is how it got started.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;I do feel like itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s family. There are a lot of stereotypes in our society about teen parents. It is awesome to watch you put those stereotypes to rest.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Douglas County social worker Mandy Gwirtz, to participants of the Young Parents Group

Strangers become â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;familyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Last year, Douglas County social worker Mandy Gwirtz was making home visits to a few young parents when they expressed their desire to connect with other inexperienced moms and dads.

Gwirtz thought it was a great idea; because sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s in her 30s and doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have children, she knew she could only relate to them so much.

Thus, the Young Parents Group was born. Since its first meeting in October, a core

group of attendees has emerged, helping one another navigate the challenges that come with parenthood at the same time theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re trying to steer themselves into adulthood. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I do feel like itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s family,â&#x20AC;?

Gwirtz told the group at its six-month anniversary meeting earlier this month. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There are a lot of stereotypes in our society about teen parents. It is awesome to watch you put those stereotypes to rest.â&#x20AC;?

For example, not all teen parents stop getting an education, said Alli, a freshman in high school. Not all young Please see PARENTS, page 6A

Parents CONTINUED FROM PAGE 5A

fathers are deadbeats, said 20-year-old David Ward.

And youthful moms and dads donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t all party and drink, said 18-year-old Emily Rader.

By even forming the group, the parents dispelled one myth: that young child-bearers donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t take an active role in raising their kids, leaving it their own parents or the government to do it for them.

Dispelling pregnancy myths When she first heard about the Young Parents Group, Alli didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to go. Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just not one for opening up to people she doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know. But she decided to take a chance and move outside of her comfort zone, if only twice a month. While she was standoffish at first, she eventually opened up, to the benefit of herself â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and her fellow young parents.

The group taught her some important lessons about pregnancy. For instance, when she started coming, she was deadset against epidurals and breast-feeding. But she ended up getting the painreliever shot during labor, and breast-fed her baby, 7-week-old Annabelle Lane, at the recent meeting.

For Alli and the others, the gatherings have brought into focus what really matters in life. No longer does breaking a nail or being blown off by a high school crush seem like a big deal. The young parents simply donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have time for the endless drama and gossip that mark many peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s high school years. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Having a kid brings everything into perspective really quickly,â&#x20AC;? said 20-year-old Ashleigh Lottinville.

Experiencing firsts together At a meeting earlier this month, group members arrived, one by one, and immediately started trading babies and sharing their latest war stories. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a good baby, until it comes to nighttime,â&#x20AC;?

Ward said of his newborn, 11-day-old Heidi. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You cut the umbilical cord, right?â&#x20AC;? 20-year-old Zach Walker asked. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Yeah,â&#x20AC;? Ward said.

They posed questions like â&#x20AC;&#x153;What was your favorite toy as a child?â&#x20AC;? or â&#x20AC;&#x153;Do babies have dreams?â&#x20AC;? before getting into more pragmatic topics, such as how to overcome stress. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I just scream into a pillow,â&#x20AC;? Alli said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It works for me.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;How do you guys deal with screaming with crying babies in the car?â&#x20AC;?

Gwirtz asked. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Mickey Mouse,â&#x20AC;?

Walker said.

As a group, the parents have gone through many firsts together.

They share their anxieties about them, the way the events made them feel â&#x20AC;&#x201D; all because of how comfortable theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve grown around one another. Even the babies seem more relaxed during group, not least of all their elder statesman, Ashton.

At the recent meeting, the 9-month-old chewed on a ball, tried to play with other babies and made screechy baby noises.

He also attempted to walk. He would stand up, put his arms out to steady himself, and waddle until his wobbling brought him to his butt. One time, though, he stayed on his feet â&#x20AC;Ś and stayed on his feet â&#x20AC;Ś and â&#x20AC;Ś â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the most steps heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s taken,â&#x20AC;? an elated Zach Walker said.

At the Young Parents Group, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s like father, like son: both reaching milestones â&#x20AC;&#x201D; not on their own, but with other people who know exactly what theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going through. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Reporter Giles Bruce can be reached at 832-7265.

Germ-zapping â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;robotsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;: Hospitals battle superbugs

By Mike Stobbe Associated Press

NEW YORK â&#x20AC;&#x201D; They sweep. They swab. They sterilize. And still the germs persist.

In U.S. hospitals, an estimated 1 in 20 patients pick up infections they didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have when they arrived, some caused by dangerous â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;superbugsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; that are hard to treat.

The rise of these superbugs, along with increased pressure from the government and insurers, is driving hospitals to try all sorts of new approaches to stop their spread: Machines that resemble â&#x20AC;&#x153;Star Warsâ&#x20AC;? robots and emit ultraviolet light or hydrogen peroxide vapors.

Germ-resistant copper bed rails, call buttons and IV poles. Antimicrobial linens, curtains and wall paint.

While these products can help get a room clean, their true impact is still debatable. There is no widely accepted evidence that these inventions have pre-

USING ULTRAVIOLET LIGHT, A MACHINE disinfects a hospital room March 20 at the Westchester Medical Center in Valhalla, N.Y. vented infections or deaths.

Meanwhile, insurers are pushing hospitals to do a better job and the governmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Medicare program has moved to stop paying bills for certain infections caught in the hospital. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re seeing a culture changeâ&#x20AC;? in hospitals, said Jennie Mayfield, who tracks infections at Barnes-Jewish Hospital in St. Louis.

Those hospital infections are tied to an estimated 100,000 deaths each year and add as much as $30 billion a year in medical costs, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The agency last month sounded an alarm about a â&#x20AC;&#x153;nightmare bacteriaâ&#x20AC;? resistant to one class of antibiotics.

That kind is still rare but it showed up last year in at

least 200 hospitals.

Hospitals started paying attention to infection control in the late 1880s, when mounting evidence showed unsanitary conditions were hurting patients. Hospital hygiene has been a concern ever since, with a renewed emphasis triggered by the emergence a decade ago of a nasty strain of intestinal bug called Clostridium difficile, or C-diff.

The diarrhea-causing Cdiff is now linked to 14,000 U.S. deaths annually. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been the catalyst for the growing focus on infection control, said Mayfield, who is also president-elect of the Association for Professionals in Infection Control and Epidemiology.

C-diff is easier to treat than some other hospital superbugs, like methicillinresistant staph, or MRSA, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s particularly difficult to clean away. Alcoholbased hand sanitizers donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t work and C-diff can persist on hospital room surfaces for days. The CDC recommends hospital staff clean

their hands rigorously with soap and water â&#x20AC;&#x201D; or better yet, wear gloves. And rooms should be cleaned intensively with bleach, the CDC says.

Michael Claes developed a bad case of C-diff while he was a kidney patient last fall at New York Cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Lenox Hill Hospital.

He and his doctor believe he caught it at the hospital.

Claes praised his overall care, but felt the hospitalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s room cleaning and infection control was less than perfect. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I would use the word â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;perfunctory,â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;? he said.

Lenox Hill spokeswoman Ann Silverman disputed that characterization, noting hospital workers are making efforts that patients often canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t see, like using hand-cleanser dispensers in hallways. She ticked off a list of measure used to prevent the spread of germs, ranging from educating patientsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; family members to isolation and other protective steps with each C-diff patient.

Court rejects Alabama immigration law appeal MONTGOMERY, ALA. (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; An attorney for the Montgomery-based Southern Poverty Law Center says heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not surprised that the U.S. Supreme Court has turned down a request to revive portions of Alabamaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s immigration law.

Supreme Court justices on Monday upheld a federal appeals court ruling that blocked parts of the law. SPLC attorney Sam Brooke said lower courts had already said immigration reform is a function of the federal government, not the states.

Brooke said he hoped the ruling would motivate Congress to seek meaningful reform.

Justice Antonin Scalia voted to hear the appeal. A spokeswoman for Alabama Attorney General Luther Strange, Joy Patterson, said Scaliaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s vote was a sign that once additional courts have considered the issue, the Supreme Court will grant review. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are disappointed that the Court decided not to consider this case, over Justice Scaliaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s dissent,â&#x20AC;? Patterson said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Many other states are facing similar litigation, and the lower court in our case was the first federal court of appeals to consider this particular issue.

Other cases raising the issue from other states are likely to appear at the Supreme Court in the future.

Hopefully Justice Scaliaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s vote indicates that once those additional courts have weighed in, the Supreme Court will be willing to grant review.â&#x20AC;?

The case will now go back to the trial court.

The parties and the court will have to sort through which issues have now been resolved by the Supreme Court in Arizona and the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 11th Circuit.

Some issues will require further litigation, while other issues will not. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Supreme Court has rightly struck another nail in the coffin of laws that attempt to sanction racial profiling,â&#x20AC;? said Karen Tumlin, managing attorney for the National Immigration Law Center. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Alabamaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s legislators, both at the state and at the federal level should take note: They, like the rest of the country, should move forward, not backward, to bring our immigration laws in line with our societal and economic needs.â&#x20AC;?

Cecilia Wang, director of the American Civil Liberty Unionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Immigrantsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Rights Project, said she felt the Supreme Court made the right decision to hear the case. â&#x20AC;&#x153;All the lower federal courts â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and the court of public opinion â&#x20AC;&#x201D; have said â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;noâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; to divisive state laws like this one, and Americans have moved on to support immigration reform that creates a new common sense immigration system.â&#x20AC;?

Alabama House Majority Leader Micky Hammon said in a statement, â&#x20AC;&#x153;This issue is not going away any time soon, and I agree with Attorney General Strange that the Supreme Courtâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s actions today are only delaying the inevitable.â&#x20AC;? Hammon noted that most of Alabamaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s immigration law has been upheld by the courts and said the ruling wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t affect law enforcementâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ability to enforce it. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I hope that the Supreme Court will stop kicking the can down the road and weigh in on this issue of utmost importance to not only Alabamians but the country as well,â&#x20AC;? Hammon said.

Man charged in Albuquerque church stabbings

By Russell Contreras Associated Press

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The man accused of stabbing four churchgoers during Sunday Mass told police that he was after the choir leader because he thought the man was a member of a secret society.

According to a criminal complaint, Lawrence Capener, 24, said he was going after the choir leader at St. Jude Thaddeus Catholic Church because his â&#x20AC;&#x153;speech was different,â&#x20AC;? and he was â&#x20AC;&#x153;99 percent sure he was a Mason.â&#x20AC;?

He told the investigator that Masons are a group involved â&#x20AC;&#x153;in a conspiracy that is far more reaching than I could or would believe.â&#x20AC;?

Capener said he stabbed the others who tried to subdue him because he thought they might be Masons, too.

The affidavit said Capener apologized for stabbing the others after he was read his rights and agreed to speak to police.

Masons are a fraternal group involved in charity and other community activities, but many of their rituals and symbols are secret.

The attack happened just before noon Sunday as the choir began its final hymn. Police and witnesses said Capener vaulted over pews and stabbed choir leader Adam Alvarez in the back.

Worshippers screamed as the shocking and chaotic scene unfolded Sunday with the attacker continuing the onslaught until he was tackled and held by church members for officers, police said.

In addition to Alvarez, three other parishioners were injured, including flutist Gerald Madrid, police spokesman Robert Gibbs said. All four were treated at hospitals and listed in stable condition.

Three other church members were evaluated

by Albuquerque Fire Department on the scene and didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t go to the hospital, investigators said.

Capener was charged late Sunday on three counts of aggravated battery and ordered held on $75,000 bail.

St. Jude Thaddeusâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; pastor, the Rev. John Daniel, said Capenerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s mother was â&#x20AC;&#x153;very activeâ&#x20AC;? in the parish and serves as a Eucharistic minister there. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He was here occasionally but not very often,â&#x20AC;?

Daniel said.

Daniel said that Capener had just graduated from a community college and appeared to be doing well after getting a job.

An off-duty firefighter and others at the church held Capener down until police arrived.

Madrid told KOBTV that he tried to stop Capener by wrapping his arms around him but was stabbed in the neck and back.

Police said four parishioners were injured, but none had life-threatening injuries. Lawrence Capener, 24, was charged with three counts with aggravated battery and was being held on $75,000 bail. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I bear-hugged him.

We were chest on chest.

I was wrapping about to take him down to ground, but I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have his arms.

I had just my arms around his chest, so his arms were free. So thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s when he started stabbing me,â&#x20AC;? he said.

Madrid said he thought the suspect was punching him. It wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t until other parishioners rushed the man that Madrid realized he had been stabbed five times.

WASHINGTON â&#x20AC;&#x201D; President Barack Obama on Monday tapped rising Democratic politician Anthony Foxx to lead the Department of Transportation, an agency at the center of Washingtonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fiscal fights.

Foxx, the mayor of Charlotte, N.C., is the first black nominee among the presidentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s picks for open spots in his second-term Cabinet. The president had faced questions, including from the Congressional Black Caucus, about a lack of diversity in his first round of nominations after winning re-election.

Obama said that as a mayor, Foxx knows how to use infrastructure spending to create jobs and boost economic growth. The White House cited Foxxâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s work on Charlotteâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s electric train service, an expansion of a light rail system and the opening of a third runway at the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s airport as experience that qualifies him for the Cabinet post. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Charlotte made one of the largest investments in transportation,â&#x20AC;? Obama

dened by the attack. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is the first time in my 30 years serving as archbishop in the Archdiocese of Santa Fe and as bishop of Lubbock, that anything like this has occurred,â&#x20AC;? Sheehan said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I pray for all who have been harmed, their families, the parishioners and that nothing like this will ever happen again,â&#x20AC;? Sheehan said.

Daniel said Mass schedule has resumed. A 6 p.m.

Monday Mass is scheduled at the 3,000 member church, he said.

PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA ANNOUNCES that he will nominate Charlotte, N.C., Mayor Anthony Foxx, left, to succeed Ray LaHood as the next Transportation Secretary on Monday in the East Room of the White House in Washington. said during a nomination ceremony in the East Room of the White House. â&#x20AC;&#x153;All of that has not only helped create new jobs, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s helped Charlotte become more attractive to business.â&#x20AC;?

Foxx, 41, has served as Charlotteâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s mayor since 2009. He bolstered his national profile last year when his city hosted the Democratic Partyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s national convention.

Among those in the audience for the East Room ceremony was Foxxâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s grandmother, who worked

in the White House during the Truman administration.

If confirmed by the Senate, Foxx will take over the Transportation Department from outgoing Secretary Ray LaHood, a rare Republican serving in a Democratic administration. In a nod to his predecessor, Foxx said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;there is no such thing as a Democratic or Republican road, bridge, port, airfield or rail system. We must work together across party lines to enhance this nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s infrastructure.â&#x20AC;?

A week later, the garbage remains in his home, along with millions of insects it attracted,â&#x20AC;? the letter said.

Though attorneys for Curtis said their client was framed, McCoy believed whoever sent the letters had a primary goal of targeting the public officials. Curtis has said that he feuded with the man now charged in the case, James Everett Dutschke. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think Kevin was just an afterthought or a scapegoat,â&#x20AC;? McCoy said.

Kevin Curtis was once charged in the mailing of poisoned letters to President Barack Obama, U.S. Sen. Roger Wicker and a Mississippi judge, but the charges were later dropped. The investigation shifted last week to another man who had a falling out with Curtis, and that suspect appeared in court Monday on charges of making ricin.

Now, Curtisâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; lawyer has sent a letter to U.S. Attorney Felicia Adams demanding that Curtis be provided temporary housing and that the government repair his home and possessions.

Hagel: US assessing reported Syrian chemical use Town

By Lolita C. Baldor Associated Press

WASHINGTON â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The U.S. and its allies are still trying to figure out details of Syriaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s suspected use of chemical weapons against its own people, Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel said Monday, as international officials pressed for broader access to suspected attack sites.

Man wounded after pulling gun in police lobby

By Brady Mccombs Associated Press

WEST VALLEY CITY, UTAH â&#x20AC;&#x201D; A man who told authorities months ago that he wanted to be killed by police entered a suburban Salt Lake City police station Monday and pointed a gun at an officer and a records clerk, prompting another officer to open fire on him, wounding the man in the arm.

The shooting at about 8:30 a.m. in the heart of West Valley City caused panic at a bustling train and bus stop nearby, with people taking cover as they heard gunshots and saw officers storm outside with their weapons drawn.

No one else was hurt as the suspect was quickly shot and apprehended.

James Ramsey Kammeyer, 39, was released from a hospital Monday afternoon and booked into jail on suspicion of attempted homicide, threat of terrorism, aggravated assault and possession of a weapon by a prohibited user, said police Sgt. Jason Hauer. Kammeyer is a registered sex offender.

Hauer said Kammeyer is not cooperating with

Retirement CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A

Local officials got a taste of the idea earlier this year. In February, city commissioners approved $12,500 in funding to help form the new nonprofit entity that would be responsible for fleshing out the details of the plan.

At this point, those details include a development of 20 to 60 acres that would include a mix of single-family homes, apartments and condominiums designed to attract people 62 years and younger. The private sector would build those living units.

But the project also would include a not-forprofit â&#x20AC;&#x153;continuing care retirement communityâ&#x20AC;? that would offer independentliving, assisted-living, skilled-nursing and mem-

Turnpike trial Kansas residents and lawmakers should keep a close eye on Kansas Turnpike operations for the next two years and be ready to rethink a partial merger of the KTA and the Kansas Department of Transportation.

I

t could be that the best part of a new measure that appoints the Kansas Secretary of Transportation as the director of operations for the Kansas Turnpike is that the law will expire in July 2016.

Putting a two-year sunset provision in the law reportedly was intended to give state legislators an opportunity to see whether the partial merger of KDOT and KTA actually produced any of the savings and efficiencies that Gov. Brownback and KDOT Secretary Mike King predicted. Brownback indicated in his budget proposal that fully merging the two agencies would save the state $30 million in the next two years, but neither he nor King could tell legislators exactly where those savings would come from.

The proposal met with considerable opposition from legislators — some of whom represent areas along the turnpike — who saw nothing wrong with the current operation of the road and feared the measure was a power play to give the governor access to the KTA’s healthy reserve fund. To help protect the turnpike, the bill specifies that turnpike tolls can only be used for the operation of the turnpike. Some legislators expressed concern, however, that the law would be the first step in tapping both turnpike toll and reserve money to fund other highway projects or even general fund expenses.

At the very least, the new law raises many questions about the future of the turnpike’s funding and its leadership, especially after current KTA President and CEO Mike Johnston’s announcement on Friday that he would retire from that post on June 15. Johnston said he was not asked to resign and maintained that the new law was a “fairly minor” factor in his decision. Having served as a Democratic state legislator for 14 years, Johnston was gracious in withholding comment on the new law, saying it was the prerogative of the Legislature and governor to make such policy decisions.

It’s unfortunate that Johnston, who served as KDOT Secretary from 1991 to 1994, isn’t going to remain in his post at least for the new law’s two-year trial period. He has been a good steward of the state’s 236-mile toll road since taking over as CEO in 1995. The turnpike is consistently better maintained and safer than most other highways in the state and has seen steady upgrades during Johnston’s tenure.

Depending on what happens to the KTA in the next several years, Lawrence may be thanking its lucky stars that major bridge replacements and a project to widen the turnpike to six lanes both east and west of Lawrence were completed in the last several years.

The next step for the KTA board isn’t entirely clear. The organization is losing its president and CEO, but, before hiring a replacement, board members probably need to answer the obvious questions about how the next person in that role would share authority with the new KTA director of operations/KDOT secretary.

There certainly is no reason these two agencies shouldn’t cooperate with one another, but there also is no indication that such cooperation wasn’t already taking place and little indication of exactly what Brownback and King are trying to accomplish with the new leadership structure.

What is clear is that changes are afoot.

Kansans need to keep a watchful eye over the next two years to make sure those changes aren’t for the worse for the wellrun and well-maintained Kansas Turnpike.

U.S. must take the lead on Syria There is something bizarre about the debate over how the United States should respond to the Syrian regime’s likely use of chemical weapons against its own people.

The White House said Thursday that Syria may have used deadly sarin gas, after France, Britain, and Israel had made similar assessments. This puts President Obama in a pickle.

He has said that use of chemical weapons by the regime would cross a “red line” and be a “game-changer.”

There are bipartisan calls in Congress for a response; the Pentagon is preparing options that include commando raids to secure chemical stockpiles and strikes on Syrian airplanes.

But as evidence mounts of toxic attacks, Obama is waffling, demanding detailed proof of the attacks that is almost impossible to come by.

The president clearly wants to avoid getting more involved in the Syrian maelstrom.

He’s right to be cautious, but not for the reasons the White House is putting forward. He should be doing more to help CIA-vetted Syrian rebels, but as part of a broad (and still missing) strategy for the region — not just as a reaction to any chemical-weapons attacks.

Don’t get me wrong. I don’t mean to diminish the horror evoked by the image of chemical attacks against civilians. I have visited Halabja in northern Iraq, where, 25 years ago, thousands of Kurds were murdered when Saddam Hussein’s helicopters blanketed the town with poison gas.

But more than 70,000 Syr-

Far better to recognize these attacks for what they are — a glaring signal that the United States must recalculate its entire strategy in the very near term.” ians have been killed in the last two years by conventional weapons, compared with a few in these suspected chemical attacks. Assad’s war crimes include bombing and indiscriminate shelling of cities, along with Scud missile attacks on defenseless civilians. Yet this slaughter has not been perceived as crossing any red line.

The Syrian conflict is spilling across borders, threatening Iraq, Lebanon, Jordan, Turkey, and Israel. Still no administration red lines.

Until now, the White House has refused to provide even CIA-vetted opposition leaders with weapons that could repel Assad’s bombs, Scuds, and heavy artillery. Nor has it given more than a very limited green light for its allies to provide heavy weapons.

Meantime, jihadi groups have had little trouble getting weapons and cash from rich Gulf Arabs, which en-

ables them to attract more fighters to their cause.

Many Syrian opposition fighters have told me bitterly that the chemical-weapons red line was only Obama’s excuse for doing nothing so long as Syrian civilians were killed by conventional bombs instead of gas.

So the issue of chemicalweapons use must be handled carefully.

Before this week, there were three episodes in which chemical weapons were believed to have killed dozens in Syria. On Thursday, the U.S.based Syrian Support Group reported two more attacks with chemical-filled rockets on the town of Daraya, eight miles southwest of Damascus, sending 130 people to hospitals with muscle spasms, bronchial spasms, headaches, dizziness, and vomiting.

Clearly, Assad is using these attacks to terrify Syrian civilians. And no doubt, he is also probing to see if Obama will abandon his red line. Iran, too, is watching, since Obama famously warned that any development of nuclear weapons in that country would also cross an American red line.

If Obama confines his response to legalistic demands, this would signal to both Damascus and Tehran that Assad has a strong chance of surviving. It would indicate to the region that Assad can probably wait out the Americans and their allies, even as his country disintegrates, jihadis gain strength, and Syria’s sectarian war spreads around the region. It will also prove to Russia’s Vladimir Putin that he was correct to

back Assad despite the risks.

But a military response that is limited to the chemical-weapons issue would also be greatly mistaken. The options are dicey, and there is no way to secure Assad’s chemical stockpiles in the midst of a civil war.

Far better to recognize these attacks for what they are — a glaring signal that the United States must recalculate its entire strategy in the very near term. The best remaining chance of removing Assad is to convince the military commanders around him that the United States is finally serious about wanting him gone. Only then might some turn against their leader.

At a meeting last weekend, Washington pledged to pressure its allies — meaning Qatar and Saudi Arabia — to channel all military assistance through the umbrella Supreme Military Council, headed by Gen. Salim Idriss. This offers a last chance to strengthen moderate fighting groups against the jihadis. It might even grab Moscow’s attention and persuade some elements of the Syrian government to start negotiations.

The best way for Obama to react to Assad’s vicious chemical-weapons feint would be to show the world that he has finally decided to take the lead in pushing for a resolution to the Syrian disaster. But other countries won’t pay attention to U.S. entreaties unless the White House puts money, muscle, and weapons into the game.

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for April 30, 1913: “Auto speeding must stop in the city of Lawrence.

YEARS This is the edict which has AGO been issued by Marshall E. E. IN 1913 Meyers of the local police force and to emphasize his order the Chief has secured three warrants for persons accused of violating the anti-speeding ordinance. One of these warrants is for the owner of a car which is alleged to have been exceeding the limit on Tennessee street on last Saturday afternoon. … Another warrant is for a motor-cyclist who was caught with a stop watch last night. It is said that this boy made the length of the 700 block of Massachusetts street in 14 seconds which means a speed of about 30 miles an hour.”

Arts vision To the editor: I agree with the World Co.’s recent “Planning vision” editorial that “Setting a broad vision for the future of Lawrence could be a useful part of the long-range planning process.” However, while many aspects of such a vision were alluded to in the editorial, one aspect of Lawrence’s rich cultural heritage that was not mentioned was the town’s thriving arts community. This seems to be a rather curious oversight since — as I’ve recently commended them online for doing so — the World Co. has been giving a lot of press to the arts lately and, in particular, to the city’s so-called Cultural District. If and when Horizon 2020 is updated and/or replaced with a more appropriate planning document, I hope the arts are included as an integral part of the broad vision for Lawrence’s future.

As an aside, it might be useful to note that the editorial unfairly characterized a potential new Horizon 2020-style multiyear process as “grueling.” I was involved in Horizon 2020 and participated in one of its subcommittees to do with quality of life issues, and it was one of the most interesting and enlightening community-focused processes I have had the good fortune to be involved in.

Such a process, by its very nature, was extensive in nature but everyone who participated was committed to the process. Grueling, no. Great, yes!

Defense expense

$1.2 million to defend against anticipated legal challenges to four bills recently passed by the Legislature. The legal work would not be done by the A.G.’s office but rather by private attorneys.

(For example, see “Kansas AG Schmidt pays $644K to defend state abortion laws,” Journal-World, June 11, 2012.)

During this same hearing, Sen. Jeff Melcher (whose campaign website’s banner says “Jeff Melcher means jobs”) questioned whether $62/hour was too much to pay private attorneys who take court appointments representing indigent defendants charged by the state of Kansas with felonies — representation guaranteed by our state and U.S. constitutions.

He said he has seen attorneys working in restaurants and so he thinks there are people out there who would do it for less.

He said it is time for the market to decide.

Melcher voted yes on all four of these bills that expose our state to constitutional challenges. I hope Melcher makes sure the market decides whom to hire and how much to pay them when it comes time to defend against lawsuits relating to these bills. Hopefully Sen. Melcher will propose that the hourly rate be capped at $62. Perhaps our attorney general can round up attorneys working in restaurants and retain them to defend our state’s laws, thereby creating jobs and saving our tax dollars from the hourly rates that are probably in excess of four times that amount paid in defending prior lawsuits.

Faulty arguments

To the editor: Two writers in Saturday’s JournalTo the editor: World — in the “Saturday Column” Attorney General Schmidt asked Sen- and Marsha Goff in “Your Turn” — ate Ways and Means on Thursday for expressed their views regarding the

proposed new Menards. At first blush, their positions appear sound and their conclusions reasonable. However, when one examines their underlying arguments, it is apparent that key parts of their positions are based on irrelevant facts or false assumptions.

The editor states that those making an investment in a new store would know more regarding its potential for success than would members of the community. So what? Their impetus is to make money; the citizens of Lawrence are concerned with protecting the character and quality of our hometown.

Goff offers another paper tiger, citing the sales tax that would be generated. Let’s do the math. Today, Lawrence needs to buy a hammer, 20 2-by-4s, some nails, and a ladder. He can go to Ace, Home Depot or, if one is approved, Menards. Maybe someday, he can also go to Lowe’s. So what? If there are three hardware stores or a dozen, our buddy Larry is not going to buy more stuff. Net tax gain? Zero.

I also noted the tone of disdain in the Saturday Column when it referred to “the almost-sacred downtown Lawrence area.” It is sacred, not almost; blood has been spilled there. When I travel and meet folks who have visited our town, downtown is the first thing they mention. It deserves our protection.

Doug Burger, Lawrence

Hawkinsonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s future might be at center

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

When the Cincinnati Bengals released the name of their fifth-round selection in last weekendâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s NFL Draft, they listed former Kansas University offensive lineman Tanner Hawkinson as a guard.

During his four seasons at KU, in which he started a school-record 48 straight games, Hawkinson played three years at left tackle and another at right tackle. But it turns out Hawkinsonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s versatility was one of the biggest reasons the Bengals targeted the 6-foot-5, 298-pound McPherson native.

Some folks out there believe his best position in the NFL actually might be center.

Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the belief held by former NFL offensiveline coach Hawkinson H u d s o n Houck, with whom Hawkinson trained leading up to the draft. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I talked to Hudson, and he thought his best position was actually center,â&#x20AC;? said Cincinnati offensive-line coach Paul Alexander. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t discount the other positions. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s certainly smart enough.â&#x20AC;?

Throughout his pre-draft training, Hawkinson said Houck emphasized the concept of being a utility man along the O-line. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He had us working a lot at all positions â&#x20AC;&#x201D; guard, snapping the ball â&#x20AC;&#x201D; just to make sure we knew how vital it was to know all the positions,â&#x20AC;? Hawkinson said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t had any in-game experience at guard or center, but Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m confident I can pick those up quickly.â&#x20AC;?

Hawkinsonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s intelligence and athleticism rarely have been questioned. His strength, however, is a different story. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He needs to get stronger,â&#x20AC;? Alexander said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;And heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s kind of a young guy, body-wise, maybe a little Please see FOOTBALL, page 3B

IN A MULTIPLE-EXPOSURE IMAGE, FREE STATE PITCHER DANE MCCULLOUGH GOES INTO HIS DELIVERY during the fifth inning of a 6-1 victory over Shawnee Mission East on Monday at FSHS.

McCullough, Dineen overpowering

By Benton Smith basmith@ljworld.com

Sunday afternoon at practice, Free State Highâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s baseball players learned that Thursdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cold and wet weather forecast meant they would be playing at home against Shawnee Mission East on Monday instead.

Following a two-home-run, five-RBI afternoon at FSHS, Firebirds leadoff hitter Joe Dineen had no complaints about rescheduling. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The wind blowing out helped a little bit,â&#x20AC;? Dineen said after his solo home run in the first inning and grand slam in the second led Free State to a 6-1 victory and at least a share of the 2013 Sunflower League championship.

The junior left fielder sent a high, down-the-middle offering from Trey Austin over the scoreboard in left field (the direction the wind was blowing) to lead off the first. It was Dineenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s second homer of the season and first since April 2.

FREE STATEâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S JOE DINEEN ROUNDS THE BASES after his second-inning grand slam. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If you start off with a home run, you have confidence throughout the rest of the game,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think it just got the team ready to go.

It helped Dane (McCullough) come out and pitch.â&#x20AC;?

Free Stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s senior righthanded ace, McCullough (6-

0), scattered seven hits, struck out six and walked one in a complete-game win. He had a six-run margin working for him most of the afternoon following a five-run second inning for Free State (14-1 overall, 9-0 Sunflower League).

Sam Hearnen walked to lead off the second, Cameron Pope doubled to left, and Zach Bickling drew a one-out walk to load the bases. Once Joel Spain drew another base on balls for a 2-0 FSHS lead, SM East coach Jerrod Ryherd relieved Austin with Jay Anderson.

However, Anderson fared no better versus Dineen, who clubbed another long ball to left by staying back on a low pitch over the plate. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They tell you not to try to hit the second one,â&#x20AC;? Dineen (2-for-3) said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;but I wanted to. I swung pretty hard. The wind took it out.â&#x20AC;?

Firebirds coach Mike Hill didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to be so modest.

He said air currents just intensified Dineenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s shots.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;But he got hold of both pitches, big time,â&#x20AC;? Hill said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s capable of.â&#x20AC;?

Dineen (.280 batting average, 12 RBIs) said he hadnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t been hitting well this season, so Monday was a welcome change. Still, teammate and senior first baseman Jacob Caldwell indicated none of the Firebirds were surprised to see Dineen knock out two in two innings. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He knows how to swing the bat, and he doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get his head down when heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s struggling,â&#x20AC;? Caldwell said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He can put the ball out on any given day, even if the windâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not blowing out.â&#x20AC;?

After Caldwell tripled in the second, the Firebirds only came up with two more hits the remainder of their third straight victory. â&#x20AC;&#x153;With Dane on the mound and a six-run lead and our defense, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re really confident,â&#x20AC;?

Caldwell said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;and want to put more (runs) on the board.â&#x20AC;?

Baker grad looks good in â&#x20AC;&#x2122;stripes Baker University baseball coach Phil Hannon was in his car, on his way out of Raymore-Peculiar High in Peculiar, Mo., where he had been recruiting, when his cell phone rang. It was one of his former catchers letting the coach know to hightail it to the Buffalo Wild Wings in Belton, Mo., where the lefty he used to catch was throwing on the big screen for the New York Yankees.

Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

Merely by driving to the high school, Hannon put in more recruiting work than he did to land the former

Baker pitcher who made his major-league debut Monday night in Yankee Stadium.

Left-hander Vidal Nuno, 25, came to Baker University from Southwestern Community College on the coattails of his juco teammate, shortstop Travis McCleary.

Hannon remembered a call he received from McCleary this way: â&#x20AC;&#x153;He said, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Hey, coach, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got a lefthanded pitcher who wants to come with me. Is it OK if

he comes with me?â&#x20AC;&#x2122; I said, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s left-handed? OK.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; And he said, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Coach, you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t understand. He was named the best pitcher in our conference.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; He just followed the shortstop to Baker.

Came out sight unseen.â&#x20AC;?

Driven by family concerns, McClearly moved back to California after a year, but Nuno stayed for his second year at Baker,

Chiefs finishing off overhaul of moribund team

â&#x20AC;&#x153;

I think weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve made the roster competitive.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Chiefs GM John Dorsey

KANSAS CITY, MO. (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The Kansas City Chiefs werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t exactly in shambles when John Dorsey and Andy Reid first walked through the door. After all, the team did have six Pro Bowl players on the roster.

That doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t mean the Chiefs werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t in need of an extreme makeover.

So over the past couple months, thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s exactly what the Chiefsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; new general manager and new coach have done, rolling up their sleeves and going to work on a massive overhaul project.

Matt Cassel is out at quarterback. Alex Smith is in. Wide receiver Dwayne Bowe has a long-term deal. Tyson Jackson

restructured his massive contract. Veterans such as Eric Winston and Steve Breaston who didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t fit into the new plan have been jettisoned.

The result is a roster that has the same basic foundation as last year, when the Chiefs went 2-14, but a very different appearance from top to bottom.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;I feel we have upgraded our roster at certain positions that I thought we were weak,â&#x20AC;? said Dorsey, who took over for departed GM Scott Pioli and orchestrated the teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s renovation. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve added some depth and competition,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve done that through free agency, through the col-

lege draft, and college free agency as well. I think weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve made the roster competitive.â&#x20AC;?

He wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know for sure until the Chiefs get on the field next month. For now, though, the team on paper looks vastly improved.

Jets give up on Tim Tebow experiment NEW YORK â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Tim Tebow was waived by the Jets on Monday, the end of an unsuccessful one-season experiment in New York.

Coach Rex Ryan said in a statement put out by the team in announcing the move that had been expected for months: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Unfortunately, things did not work out the way we all had hoped.â&#x20AC;?

The Heisman Trophy winner attempted just eight passes after his Tebow ballyhooed arrival in a surprising trade from the Denver Broncos in March 2012. He threw for 39 yards and rushed 32 times for 102 yards â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and stunningly had no touchdowns as a member of the Jets.

Meanwhile, starter Mark Sanchez struggled amid constant questions about Tebowâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s playing time, and still Tebow remained mostly on the sideline. The Jets drafted quarterback Geno Smith in the second round of the NFL draft Friday, giving New York six quarterbacks on its roster â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and creating uncertainty about Sanchezâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s future, as well.

Tebow arrived at the teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s facility in Florham Park, N.J., on Monday morning and was told he had been cut.

Tebow led the Broncos to the playoffs in 2011, but became expendable when Denver acquired Peyton Manning. The popular backup quarterback was acquired by the Jets for a fourth-round draft pick and $1.5 million in salary. He was introduced at the Jetsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; facility to plenty of fanfare at a lavish news conference, with Tebow repeatedly saying he was â&#x20AC;&#x153;excitedâ&#x20AC;? to be in New York. It turned out to be one of the few high points in Tebowâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tenure with the Jets.

PRO BASKETBALL

Owners advised not to move Kings In an emotional saga that has dragged on for nearly three years, the Sacramento Kings finally appear to be staying put in Californiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s capital city.

The NBAâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s relocation committee voted unanimously Monday to recommend that owners reject the application for the Kings to relocate to Seattle, the latest â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and by far the strongest â&#x20AC;&#x201D; in a long line of cities that almost landed the franchise. The committee made the decision over a conference call and forwarded the recommendation to the NBA Board of Governors.

The board, which consists of all 30 owners, will convene during the week of May 13 to vote on the matter. While the recommendation doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t guarantee the Kings will stay put, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s difficult at this point to imagine how they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t.

Who will own the Kings next season is still unclear.

The Maloof family reached an agreement in January to sell a 65 percent controlling interest in the team to a group led by investor Chris Hansen at a total franchise valuation of $525 million. Then Hansen increased his offer to $550 million, which implies buying the 65 percent stake for about $357 million.

Hansen hoped to move the team to Seattle and rename it the SuperSonics, who moved to Oklahoma City and renamed the Thunder in 2008.

Instead, those plans have suddenly crumbled.

The NBA Board of Governors is expected to follow the recommendation by the relocation committee, coincidentally headed by Thunder owner Clay Bennett, already a reviled figure in Seattle.

First active pro in U.S. major leagues comes out WASHINGTON (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; With the simplest of sentences, NBA veteran Jason Collins set aside years of worry and silence to become the first active player in one of four major U.S. professional sports leagues to come out as gay.

In a first-person article posted Monday on Sports Illustratedâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s website, Collins begins: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m a 34-year-old NBA center.

Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m black. And Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m gay.â&#x20AC;?

Collins has played for six teams in 12 seasons, most recently as a reserve with the Washington Wizards after a midseason trade from the Boston Celtics. He is now a free agent and wants to keep playing in the NBA. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t set out to be the first openly gay athlete playing in a major American team sport. But since I am, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m happy to start the conversation. I wish I wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t the kid in the classroom raising his hand and saying, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m different,â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;?

Collins writes. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If I had my way, someone else would have already done this. Nobody has, which is why Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m raising my hand.â&#x20AC;?

Saying he had â&#x20AC;&#x153;endured years of misery and gone to enormous lengths to live a lie,â&#x20AC;? Collins immediately drew support for his announcement from the White House â&#x20AC;&#x201D; President Barack Obama called him â&#x20AC;&#x201D; along with former President Bill Clinton, the NBA, current and former teammates, a sponsor and athletes in other sports.

Collins says he quietly made a statement for gay rights even while keeping his sexual orientation a secret. He wore No. 98 with the Celtics and Wizards â&#x20AC;&#x201D; 1998 was year that Matthew Shepard, a gay college student in Wyoming, was killed, and the Trevor Project, a suicide prevention organization, was founded.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;

I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t set out to be the first openly gay athlete playing in a major American team sport. But since I am, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m happy to start the conversation.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; NBA veteran Jason Collins in an article for Sports Illustrated According to the General Social Survey, the public has grown increasingly accepting of gay relationships since the late 1980s. That survey found in 1987 that 76 percent of Americans thought sexual relations between adults of the same sex was morally wrong. That fell to 43 percent by 2012.

After being a first-round draft pick in 2001, Collins has averaged 3.6 points and 3.8 rebounds for the New Jersey Nets, Memphis Grizzlies, Minnesota Timberwolves, Atlanta Hawks, Celtics and Wizards.

In his SI piece, he jokes self-effacingly about his journeyman career and a parlor game known as â&#x20AC;&#x153;Three Degrees of Jason Collins.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;If youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re in the league, and I havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t been your teammate, I surely have been one of your teammatesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; teammates. Or one of your teammatesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; teammatesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; teammates,â&#x20AC;? he writes.

Never a star, he acknowledges, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I take charges and I foul â&#x20AC;&#x201D; thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been my forte. ... I set picks with my 7-foot, 255-pound body to get guys like Jason Kidd, John Wall and Paul Pierce open. I sacrifice myself for other players.â&#x20AC;?

He continues: â&#x20AC;&#x153;I go against the gay stereotype, which is why I think a lot of players will be shocked: That guy is gay? But Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve always been an aggressive player, even in high school. Am I so physical to prove that being

gay doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t make you soft? Who knows? Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s something for a psychologist to unravel.â&#x20AC;?

As for what response other NBA players will have to his revelation, Collins writes: â&#x20AC;&#x153;The simple answer is, I have no idea.â&#x20AC;?

On Monday, there was an outpouring of positive sentiments.

In texts to the AP, several of Collinsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; former teammates voiced support, and NBA Commissioner David Stern said in a statement: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Jason has been a widely respected player and teammate throughout his career and we are proud he has assumed the leadership mantle on this very important issue.â&#x20AC;?

While Collins is the first male athlete in a major North American professional league to come out while intending to keep playing, several have previously spoken after they retired about being gay, including the NBAâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s John Amaechi, the NFLâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Esera Tuaolo and Major League Baseballâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Billy Bean.

Female athletes have found more acceptance in coming out; Brittney Griner, a top college basketball player now headed to the WNBA, caused few ripples when she said this month she is a lesbian.

Sports leagues in Britain and elsewhere in Europe have been trying to combat anti-gay bias.

But the taboo remains particularly strong in soccer, where there are no openly gay players in Europeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s top leagues. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Some people insist theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve never met a gay person. But Three Degrees of Jason Collins dictates that no NBA player can claim that anymore. Pro basketball is a family. And pretty much every family I know has a brother, sister or cousin whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s gay,â&#x20AC;? Collins concludes. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In the brotherhood of the NBA, I just happen to be the one whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s out.â&#x20AC;?

COMMENTARY

Sports catching up to rest of world

By Phil Sheridan The Philadelphia Inquirer

If weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re being honest here, the first gay professional athlete in the United States probably played baseball for the New York Mutuals or the Chicago White Stockings of the old National Association in the 1870s.

So Jason Collinsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; brave announcement, made Monday via Sports Illustrated magazineâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s website, was about 140 years in the making. That makes him sort of the Jackie Robinson of gay players and sort of the opposite.

Robinson didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get to play 12 years in the major leagues, proving himself as a person and a player and a teammate, before revealing that he was a black man.

His shattering of the color barrier was an act of personal courage on his part and moral fortitude on the part of Branch Rickey and the Brooklyn Dodgers.

Robinson, Rickey, and the Dodgers were boldly ahead of history. It was 16 years after Robinson stepped on a majorleague field that the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. made his â&#x20AC;&#x153;I Have a Dreamâ&#x20AC;? speech.

Baseball, and sports in general, were 20 years ahead of the rest of America (and 30 or 40 years ahead of parts of it).

As personally courageous as

Collins is for coming out as a gay man in the NBA, the truth is that sports is way behind the rest of the country on this one.

It was two years ago that former Villanova basketball player Will Sheridan came out publicly. Sheridan had graduated and was no longer playing.

We talked about the inevitability of an active professional player coming out.

Since then, the U.S. military has abolished its long-standing â&#x20AC;&#x153;Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t Ask, Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t Tellâ&#x20AC;? policy, freeing gays to serve openly.

The president of the United States mentioned Stonewall, a watershed moment for gay civil rights, during his inaugural address. A number of wellknown people in other walks of life have come out publicly.

Politicians are rushing to establish themselves as supporters of gay civil rights.

There is a wrong side of history, and nobody worth taking seriously wants to be on it.

Even in sports, the stage has been set for quite some time.

NFL players Chris Kluwe and Brendon Ayanbadejo have spoken out publicly in support of gay marriage and encouraged closeted players to step forward. The NHL has embraced the â&#x20AC;&#x153;You Can Playâ&#x20AC;? outreach program.

Somebody had to be the first to step out onto that stage, and it turned out to be Collins.

He was not exactly a household name before this. Collins has been the very definition of a journeyman, playing for six NBA teams in his 12 seasons. At 34, much more of his playing career is behind him than ahead of him. So the world still awaits the superstar athlete willing to risk endorsement money and fan backlash by kicking over the next big barrier.

But then, Collins has made a career of doing the tough, unglamorous work that frees up high-profile teammates to do their thing. That is just what he did here. Collinsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; bold move made it that much easier for the next athlete â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and the one after that.

That makes it important for Collins, a free agent this summer, to get the same offers he would have received before this.

The public reaction will help.

Many rushed onto social media to offer support and encouragement. There was some critical reaction, but that was offset by immediate backlash.

It turns out the real world was way ahead of the sports world on this, but the sports world isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t as far behind as Collins, or other gay players, might have feared.

COLLEGE BASKETBALL RECRUITING NOTEBOOK

Texas prep Turner turning heads

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

The most-watched player at the 2013 Jayhawk Invitational led his Texas Select team to the tourney’s 17-and-under title last weekend in Olathe.

Myles Turner, a 6-foot11, 225-pound junior from Trinity High in Euless, Texas, who has Kansas University on his list of schools, scored 10 points in Sunday’s 47-35 title victory over the Illinois Wolves. Scouts from KU, Baylor, SMU, Texas, Texas A&M and many others flocked to New Century Fieldhouse for Texas Select’s games.

“Honestly, I didn’t get to see much of him,” said KC Run GMC coach L.J. Goolsby, busy coach-

ing his own squad, which fell in the quarterfinals.

“I saw him last week in Minneapolis (Minn.). He’s improved his skill set (since last summer), runs the floor well, has great size, is very active, most definitely (a highly-rated prospect).”

Turner is ranked No. 78 nationally by Rivals.com.

“I’m still in the process of getting to know the coaching staff at Kansas,” Turner told jayhawkslant. com. “Pretty much every Big 12 school, with the exception of West Virginia and Iowa State, has offered me. I’m looking for a family relationship with the coaching staff and my teammates. Distance isn’t really a factor. Wherever I can thrive and develop is where I really want to go.”

The Run GMC 17-andunder team has a top prospect in Dominique Collier, a 6-1 junior point guard from Denver East, who is ranked No. 61 nationally in the Class of 2014. Also on the squad is 6-3 Free State High junior Khadre Lane and Creighton commit Ezra Talbert, 6-6 junior from Olathe East.

The Run GMC 16s, which placed second, attracted a batch of scouts to watch the likes of Jimmy Whitt, a 6-foot sophomore point guard from Columbia (Mo.) Hickman High, and Kevin Puryear, a 6-7 sophomore power forward from Blue Springs (Mo.) South.

“Jimmy is a long, lengthy guard who can score,” Goolsby said. “He gives a combo flavor at the guard spot, has a good

ESPN’s Dave Telep writes that four top juniors have talked of playing together in college Telep writes: “If you’ve been following my notebook all winter, you know about the potential package of No. 1 junior Jahlil Okafor (6-10, junior, Chicago’s Whitney Young) and No. 2 junior Tyus Jones (6-1, Apple Valley, Minn., High) playing for the same college. Justise Winslow, a fellow top10 recruit in 2014 (6-5 small forward Houston’s St. John High), has been mentioned as a possible third member. But now, how about a quartet? On a phone call this week a college coach told me that Jones is recruiting No. 8

junior Cliff Alexander (6-8 Package possibility: forward Chicago’s Curie

mid-range game and is a good defender. He’s a good athlete.”

Creighton and Wichita State have reportedly offered scholarships, while other schools, such as KU and Missouri, have taken notice.

Of Puryear, Goolsby said: “He’s skilled, aggressive. He can step out and knock down shots. He plays really hard.”

He’s a target of Creighton, which is after several KC-area players, with KU, Missouri and Oklahoma observing him closely of late.

The Run GMC 17 team also has Drew Lock, a 6-3 sophomore shooting guard from Lee’s Summit (Mo.) High, who has a football scholarship offer from Missouri.

Indians stifle Kansas City, 9-0 KANSAS CITY, MO. (AP) — Over the first few innings Monday night, Wade Davis kept making good pitches that the Cleveland Indians kept hitting into holes in the Kansas City Royals defense.

When he started making poor pitches, though, everything really unraveled.

Ryan Raburn hit a three-run homer to cap a six-run fifth inning, and Ubaldo Jimenez shut down the Kansas City offense in a 9-0 victory that gave the Indians a split of their four-game series.

“A tough night. They hit some good pitches off Wade, but they hit some mistakes, too,” Royals manager Ned Yost said. “Wade wasn’t up in the zone, but a lot of the balls they hit were catching a little too much of the plate down.”

Such as the one Raburn sent scorching over the fence in the fifth inning.

Raburn added another homer off reliever Kelvin Herrera in the eighth, and Jason Kipnis also went deep on a big night for Cleveland’s struggling offense.

“I put myself in some spots,” said Davis (2-2), who allowed eight runs and 12 hits and three walks in just 4 2/3 innings — little improvement over his previous start, when he went 3 2/3.

“My pitch selection was probably off,” he said. “I made some bad decisions and didn’t execute.”

Jimenez (1-2) didn’t have any such problem.

He allowed only two walks and an infield single

first seven innings. Otherwise, the former All-Star kept the Royals off balance in a dazzling start that brought back memories of the pitcher who once threw a no-hitter for the Colorado Rockies.

“He threw the ball well,” said Mike Moutaskas, who doubled off Jimenez in the eighth. “He got ahead of us early and mixed his pitches well. That’s a great pitcher out there.”

Offers?: Rivals.com reports that KU has offered Elijah Thomas, 6-10 sophomore from Dallas’ Prime Prep Academy.

He’s ranked No. 10 in the Class of 2015. Rivals says KU also has offered Jared Terrell, 6-4 junior from Brewster Academy in Wolfeboro, N.H., who is ranked No. 57; and AbdulMalik Abu, 6-7 junior from Kimball Union Academy in Meriden, N.H., who is ranked No. 50.

LHS softball sweeps Pioneers J-W Staff Reports

LEAVENWORTH — Sophomore Morgan Byrn nearly hit for the cycle, and Lawrence High softball busted out of a five-game losing streak with a pair of fiveinning victories Monday at Leavenworth.

Byrn singled, doubled and homered, with four RBIs in Lawrence’s 13-0 victory to open the doubleheader, then helped the Lions sweep with a double and a triple in an 18-1 win.

“She’s a really good player,” LHS coach Nick Wood said. “All day long

she was just making solid contact. Honesty, all year long she’s been hitting the ball really well.”

With just four games left in the regular season, Wood said Lawrence (610) needed to build momentum before the postseason arrives.

“It was a really good day,” the coach said of the sweep. “It had been awhile since we had seen the girls out there having fun.”

Pitchers Megan Sumonja (eight strikeouts in Game One) and Amanda Montgomery (two hits allowed in Game Two) each picked up a win.

Byrn, Sami Buffalomeat, Jolana Shield, Marly Carmona, Andrea Mills and Lillie Huckaby all drove in multiple runs.

Weis on the road Last year, KU coach Charlie Weis spent the month of May touring the state to drum up support for his new football program.

This year, Weis is taking his show farther afield.

KU recently announced the dates of an eight-city regional tour that includes stops at several major KU alumni bases and begins Thursday in Denver.

Dubbed the Kansas Football Preview Party, Weis and special guests from the KU athletic department will talk about the state of the program and the upcoming season at happy hours and luncheons open to the public. There is a charge — $10 to $20 — for most of the events, but the first two, Thursday in Denver and May 8 in Houston, are free.

Other cities included on the tour are: Dallas (May 9), St. Louis (May 15), Wichita (May 16), Liberal (May 16), Chicago (May 21) and Topeka (May 22).

a game at Baker and was impressed enough with his pinpoint control that he recommended the Indians draft him. Nuno was taken in the 48th round of the 2009 draft. The Indians released him out of spring training in 2011, but Nuno couldn’t take a hint and persevered. Next stop for the lefty with great control: the independent league Pennsylvania Wild Things.

the most tradition-rich franchise in professional sports.

Thanks to Michael Meyer, Nuno’s catcher at Baker, Hannon was able to see the final three outs of Nuno’s three shutout innings in a 9-1 loss to the Houston Astros. Hannon joined Meyer and former Wildcats right-hander Ben Cunningham at Buffalo Wild Wings.

“We all smiled ear-toear watching him compete,” Hannon said.

Nuno became the second Baker baseball player to play in the majors, 100 years after Zip Zabel (12-14 in three seasons with the Chicago Cubs) of Wetmore made his big-league debut. The Yankees lost, but Baker baseball was a big-time winner Monday night.

A Yankee scout liked what he saw of Nuno for the Wild Things, signed him, and Nuno spent the rest of the 2011 season in Class A and made it to Double A in 2012. Nuno won an award as the best rookie this spring training for the Yankees and was assigned to Triple A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, where he went 2-0 with a 1.54 ERA in four starts, earning a promotion to

The first significant move was to swing a trade with San Francisco for Smith, upgrading the most important position on the field in a year in which the draft appeared weak at QB. Along with giving Bowe a long-term deal, Dorsey and Reid signed Pro Bowl punter Dustin Colquitt to an extension, and put the franchise tag on left tackle Branden Albert, who despite talks with the Miami Dolphins appears as if he’ll still be with the Chiefs next season.

Then free agency hit, and the Chiefs started to fill the holes.

Sean Smith and Dunta Robinson were brought in to overhaul a secondary that needed help at cornerback opposite Brandon Flowers and depth across the board. Defensive lineman Mike DeVito should plug up the middle of the line, and linebacker Akeem Jordan will push for a starting job. Tight end Anthony Fasano and wide receiver Donnie Avery, both coveted free agents, are expected to give Smith more options in the passing game.

With the No. 1 overall pick for the first time in 50 years the Chiefs landed Central Michigan offensive tackle Eric Fisher, who is expected to start right away.

The Chiefs found a complement to Fasano in tight end Travis Kelce, and a running back in Knile Davis.

Kansas City plugged a few more holes on the final day of the draft, grabbing Nico Johnson out of Alabama to compete at middle linebacker in the fourth round. Defensive back Sanders Commings will push for playing time, center Eric Kush could turn out to be a sleeper of the draft, and defensive end Mike Catapano was highly regarded coming out of Princeton.

AL-worst Astros slug Yanks The Associated Press

American League Astros 9, Yankees 1 NEW YORK — Carlos Corporan homered among his four hits and drove in four runs, Brandon Barnes three hits and three RBIs, and Houston fit comfortably into the role of a slugging American League squad Monday night in a romp over the New York Yankees.

In their first game in the Bronx as an AL team, the Astros peppered Andy Pettitte for 10 hits and seven runs, both season highs for the lefty. Barnes and Corporan had tworun doubles, and Barnes added an RBI single and a double. Barnes and Corporan each set career highs for hits and RBIs. Houston bounced back from a four-game sweep in Boston with an enthusiastic win over the Yankees, who had just taken four straight from Toronto.

The Astros had 17 hits in improving the AL’s worst record to 8-18 and scored its first five runs with two outs.

Lucas Harrell (3-2) kept New York grounded. The Yankees did not hit the ball in the air against the sinkerballer until Brett Gardner blooped a single to left field with one out in the sixth — eliciting a mock cheer from those that remained from the announced crowd of 34,262 on a dank night.

Harrell got 14 groundball outs, and he induced three double plays in the first four innings.

In 61⁄3 innings, the righthander gave up eight hits, hit a batter and walked one. He struck out four and had one fly out. Harrell has allowed two runs or fewer in five of his six starts.

The youngest roster in the majors, checking in at 27 years, 224 days, beat the oldest in baseball at 31 years, 155 days, according to STATS, for just the second time in 10 matchups all-time. In their only other win, six Astros combined on a no-hitter at Yankee Stadium in 2003.

Pitching against the only other team he ever played for and working with rookie catcher Austin Romine for the first time, Pettitte (3-2) looked uncomfortable throughout.

He frequently adjusted his uniform, at times pitched from the stretch with no one on base and even once had to wave several times to get Romine’s attention when he wanted a new baseball.

Pettitte got two quick outs to start but then gave up three straight hits, including an RBI single to Carlos Pena, a walk and then a two-run double to Corporan.

Barnes hit his two-out, two-run double in the fourth to make it 5-0. The Astros chased Pettitte, who briskly walked off the field, after Ronny Cedeno doubled to put runners on second and third with one out.

Adam Warren came on and threw a wild pitch to score a run. Then when Corporan connected for his first of the year four pitches later, a two-run shot that right fielder Brennan Boesch barely moved on, a fan in a nearly silent Yankee Stadium shouted “mercy rule,” eliciting laughter. Barnes drove in one more in the fifth with a single to make it 9-0.

Pettitte yielded his most hits since Sept. 24, 2010, against Boston. It’s also the most runs since the Red Sox scored seven in that game.

Vernon Wells had an RBI single on a sharp grounder to right field off Harrell in the sixth.

Braves 3, Nationals 2 ATLANTA — Andrelton Simmons hit a tiebreaking sacrifice fly in the seventh inning, then made an eye-popping play to start the ninth as Atlanta beat Washington and ended its four-game losing streak.

Atlanta beat the Nationals for the eighth straight time dating to last season.

The Braves swept three games at Washington earlier this month.

Washington’s Stephen Strasburg ended his career-worst streak of losses in four straight starts. He allowed two runs in six innings.

Ian Desmond off the ninth with a slow grounder that Simmons charged.

The Atlanta shortstop slipped as he fielded the ball and fell on his backside, but somehow fired a strike to first base from the seat of his pants. Desmond was called out on a close play, and disagreed with the decision.

C-team Monday at Free State High Free State 13, Olathe North 3 W — Nolan Prochaska.

Free State highlights — Trent Reinardy, 1-for-2, 2B; Marcileno Cortez, 1-for-3, 3B; Jacob Holiday, 2-for-2, HR; Mikey Corbett, 2-for-2, 2B.

Reds 2, Cardinals 1 ST. LOUIS — Mat Latos outpitched Adam Wainwright, extending his scoreless innings streak to 17, and Cincinnati got an RBI apiece from Joey Votto and Xavier Paul in a victory over St. Louis.

Aroldis Chapman worked a perfect ninth for his sixth save in six chances, finishing off only the third road victory in 11 games for the Reds and handing St. Louis its third straight loss.

Yadier Molina had three of the Cardinals’ seven hits, including an RBI double off Jonathan Broxton that produced their first run in 17 innings. The Cardinals stranded 10 runners.

Wainwright (4-2) trailed just six pitches in after Shin-soo Choo doubled on his first offering, advanced on a sacrifice and scored on Votto’s single. Over his final six innings, the right-hander gave up three hits and one run on Paul’s brokenbat forceout grounder in the fourth set up by hits from Brandon Phillips and Todd Frazier.

Wainwright walked two, one intentionally, after issuing just one in 371⁄3 innings his first five starts.

Latos (2-0) worked around five hits and three walks in his sixth quality start in as many outings this season. The Reds have scored just four runs in his last three appearances.

Nets win but still trail, 3-2 The Associated Press

Rockets 105, Thunder 103 HOUSTON â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The Rockets escaped elimination with a victory over Oklahoma City on Monday night.

Chandler Parsons scored 27 points, and Patrick Beverley added 16 points with point guard Jeremy Lin out because of a bruised chest muscle.

Houston avoided a fourgame sweep in the bestof-seven series.

The Rockets led in the fourth quarter of each of the last two games only to end up losing. And it almost happened again Monday.

Kevin Durant scored five quick points to cut the Rocketsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; lead to two.

James Harden missed two shots for Houston after that and the Thunder had a last chance.

Reggie Jackson missed a jump shot and Serge Ibaka grabbed the rebound, but missed a layup at the buzzer.

A stunned Ibaka fell to the court after the miss.

Durant scored 38 points in Oklahoma Cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s second game without injured All-Star guard Russell Westbrook.

Nets 110, Bulls 91 NEW YORK â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Flourishing instead of fading in the fourth quarter, the Nets extended their first season in Brooklyn.

They need one more victory to set up the biggest game here yet.

Brook Lopez had 28 points and 10 rebounds, Deron Williams added 23 points and 10 assists, and the Nets beat Chicago, cutting the Bullsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; lead to 3-2 in their first-round playoff series.

Recovering from a collapse two days earlier that sent them home on the brink of elimination instead of tied, the Nets battered the Bulls on the boards and forced Chicago into being the team that wilted down the stretch. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We came out very aggressive, as we have the past few games. I think the difference was just we sustained it for essentially a full 48 minutes tonight,â&#x20AC;?

Lopez said.

Andray Blatche scored 10 of his 13 points in the fourth quarter, and Gerald Wallace had consecutive baskets in the finishing

surge as the Nets finally pulled away in a game they led most of the way, but never by too much.

Two days after rallying for a 142-134 triple-overtime victory, the Bulls were outscored 15-1 at the finish and failed to set up a second-round series with Miami. Instead they will host Game 6 on Thursday. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was just a lot of mental mistakes. A lot of mental mistakes,â&#x20AC;? Bulls center Joakim Noah said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I feel like we had our chances.

We beat ourselves. They played well. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got to give credit when credit is due and now itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s on us to come back and be ready for Game 6.â&#x20AC;?

If the Nets win that one, they would host Game 7 on Saturday.

Nate Robinson had 20 points and eight assists starting in place of point guard Kirk Hinrich, who bruised his left calf in Saturdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s game. â&#x20AC;&#x153;For us, I knew it was going to be tough; it was going to be a challenge,â&#x20AC;?

Robinson said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;At the same time, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been here before playing with a guy short. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s something weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got to do. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve just got to muster something and bring that energy and continue to play like weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been playing.â&#x20AC;?

Only eight NBA teams have overcome a 3-1 deficit, but the Nets remained confident after Saturdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s collapse, feeling they had outplayed the Bulls for long stretches during the series. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I believed that we would respond,â&#x20AC;? Nets interim coach P.J. Carlesimo said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve bounced back all year too well, and as disheartening a loss as that was on Saturday, thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s still been enough good minutes in this series. Neither of us are getting away from each other.â&#x20AC;?

Hawks 102, Pacers 91 ATLANTA â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Heading to his locker to get dressed, Josh Smith griped a bit when told he would have to go to the podium for the second game in a row.

Then he smiled.

No way the Hawks forward was getting out of those duties. Not after the way he played Monday night.

Smith scored a career playoff-best 29 points as the Hawks built a 17-point lead at halftime, then withstood an Indiana comeback to even the series with a victory in Game 4. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You da one, Smoove,â&#x20AC;? teammate Dahntay Jones said as he walked by Smithâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s locker. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You da one.â&#x20AC;?

The one, indeed. After struggling much of the second half, the enigmatic Smith made every big play down the stretch.

He swished a rare threepointer, came up with an offensive rebound to set up a three by Kyle Korver, and finished off a fast break with a righthanded dunk. Plus, he did another stout defensive job on Indiana star Paul George, who had to work for every one of his 21 points. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When he plays like that,â&#x20AC;? Hawks guard Devin Harris said of Smith, â&#x20AC;&#x153;weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re a very good team.â&#x20AC;?

With George scoring 18 in the second half, many on very difficult shots, the Pacers made a game of it.

But they couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t come all the way back from a 57-40 deficit at the break. Indiana got as close as four in the third quarter and was within five numerous times in the final 10 minutes. But the Pacers expended so much energy getting back in the game they just didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have enough to complete the comeback.

Tied at two wins apiece, the teams return to Indianapolis for Game 5 on Wednesday night. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is going to be one heck of a series right now,â&#x20AC;? Pacers center Roy Hibbert said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I thought weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d be able to at least split down here.â&#x20AC;?

Korver added 19 points off the bench, most of them coming on his specialty: the 3-pointer. He knocked down five from outside the arc, including the biggest one with 2:33 remaining after Al Horford threw up a wild shot that missed.

50 More than shouldn’t

Dear Annie: My boyfriend, “Jarrod,” has always been very anxious about social situations and has a hard time making friends. Since graduating from high school, he’s become very isolated.

Together with the stress of passing his college courses, he has spiraled into a serious depression.

Jarrod constantly laments that he has no friends and that his family only wants him to get a job and move out.

(They recently staged an intervention and referred to him as a “failure to launch.”) He thinks no one besides me would care if anything happened to him. He often states that he wishes everything would just end.

I want Jarrod to see a doctor and get help, but he says the idea of talking to someone about his problems scares him and stresses him out even more. He’s convinced no one can help him. He thinks antidepres-

Knox trial examined on ‘20/20’ Is Amanda Knox innocent or guilty? And how many of us really care? For those who haven’t heard, Knox was a American college student studying abroad in Perugia, Italy, when arrested and convicted for the gruesome 2007 murder of a roommate. Her conviction was later overturned by an Italian court, and she’s the subject of an hourlong interview on tonight’s “20/20” (9 p.m., ABC).

For those who can’t get enough, there’s also “Amanda Knox: The Untold Story” on “48 Hours on ID” (5 p.m.).

The Knox murder trial sparked a tabloid war in Italy and the United Kingdom, two places not known for media restraint. She was painted as a decadent pot-smoking American and her hometown of Seattle was even dragged into the tabloid mix.

Knox’s story has already been turned into a Lifetime movie starring Hayden Panettiere (”Nashville”). And stories like hers are a regular staple of “Locked Up Abroad” on National Geographic.

Knox’s post-trial (or between-trial, if Italian authorities have their way -- her acquittal was itself overturned last month, and a retrial ordered) memoir is just out from Harper. It’s called “Waiting to Be Heard.” The real question is: how many people are waiting to listen?

Tonight’s other highlights

“The Voice” (7 p.m., NBC) expands to two hours.

On two helpings of “Deadliest Catch” (Discovery), Elliot’s new boat (7 p.m.), deceit (8 p.m.).

Steak night on “Hell’s Kitchen” (7 p.m., Fox).

Director Martin Scorsese tips his hat to Alfred Hitchcock in the 2010 mystery “Shutter Island” (7 p.m., G4), starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Mark Ruffalo.

Somebody goes home on “Dancing With the Stars” (8 p.m., ABC).

Two international flights get too close for comfort on “Airport 24/7: Miami” (8 p.m., Travel).

Murder on the hard boards on “Golden Boy” (9 p.m., CBS).

Strange doings disturb the dairy cows on “Grimm” (9 p.m., NBC). This fantasy moves to Tuesdays, replacing “Ready for Love,” which was not ready for prime time.

“Frontline” (9 p.m., PBS) presents “Never Forget to Lie,” the story of a Holocaust survivor who revisits Poland.

“The Little Couple” (9 p.m., TLC) enter season six in search of adoption.

question and then immediately resumes his serenade. I know if I were to ask him to stop, it would be the beginning of World War III. He has a bad temper and a short fuse.

I get along with him fine otherwise, but I find this incredibly rude and increasingly unbearable.

I try to avoid driving them, but our proximity and common gatherings make it hard. My wife seems oblivious. She has been subjected to this all her life. No one has ever had the gumption to poke this wasp nest with a stick. What can I do? — Want Duct Tape Dear Want: You could try singing along at the top of your lungs. But really, we don’t think Dad does this deliberately to annoy you. It sounds like an ingrained habit. Either tolerate it, drive separate cars or ask your wife to drive while you listen to something else through a set of headphones.

Be careful with someone you meet today for the first time, as this person might not be everything that he or she claims to be. His or her words will reveal much if you take the time to listen. Tonight: Try to take a break from the hectic pace.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) Touch base with someone at a distance. Your feeling will change once you start having an open discussion. Tonight: Focus on getting your to-do list finished.
