Process would ‘zap’ algae to fix taste, odor

IRAQ WAR VETERAN AND PURPLE HEART RECIPIENT KORTNEY CLEMONS, of Lawrence, removes his walking prosthesis and switches to one designed for running Monday at Memorial Stadium. Clemons, a sprinter, is training for the 2012 U.S. Paralympics Athletics Trials in Indianapolis, where he hopes to qualify for the London Paralympics. On Feb. 21, 2005, Clemons was inured after an improvised explosive device was detonated, forcing most of his right leg to be amputated.

Veteran who lost his leg in war working toward a ‘huge’ dream

Kortney Clemons balances himself against the chain-link fence that separates the Memorial Stadium track from the bleachers.

He slips out of his prosthetic right leg, which starts above the knee, and puts his thigh into a new one that includes a mechanical knee and an Lshaped sprinting foot called a Cheetah.

Now the Iraq War veteran,

who lost most of his right leg in a 2005 explosion, is ready to run. And he is fast.

Clemons, who earned his master’s degree in education from Kansas University in May, is training this summer with other KU track and field athletes. He has his sights on trials in Indianapolis with hopes of qualifying for the London Paralympics in the 100- and 200-meter sprints.

“He’s a great inspiration for everyone around. He’s a really good guy,” said KU coach Stanley Redwine, who has trained Clemons since he

Zap the algae, and do it “sooner rather than later.”

Lawrence city commissioners on Tuesday directed staff members to research ways to speed up long-range plans to change how the city treats its drinking water to deal with a taste and odor problem that has been widespread for more than a week.

“The customers are not happy,” said City Commissioner Mike Dever.

Officials with the city’s Utility Department said there is a solution in the works that would use “advanced oxidation” to combat taste and odor issues that are being caused by a by-product of algae. But the city’s proposed water master plan doesn’t anticipate having those processes in place until 2021.

Motion seeks DNA testing in 1999 murder of teen

After more than a decade of failed legal battles, a motion to test DNA evidence in the 1999 shooting death of an Oskaloosa teenager has given convicted murderer Floyd Bledsoe and his attorneys new hope.

KENNETH LEROY AMESS Kenneth Leroy Amess, 87, of Lawrence, Kansas, passed away June 16, 2012, in Stillwater, Oklahoma. A visitation will be at Strode Funeral Home, Stillwater, Oklahoma, on Thursday, June 21st from 6 – 7:30 p.m. He will be laid to rest in the Abilene, Kansas Cemetery, on Monday, June 25th at 1:00 p.m.

Strode Funeral Home is in charge of arrangements.

Kenneth was born December 8, 1924, in Kansas City, Missouri, to Irene Lancaster and T. R. Amess. He graduated from Abilene, Kansas High School and enlisted in the U. S. Army. He later joined the United States Air Force and remained in the military until he retired on June 30, 1965, as a Technical Sergeant.

Kenneth married Colleen Lois Clark on March 22, 1947. They traveled to Greenland, England and numerous places in the United States, while he was in the Air Force.

Upon retiring from the Air Force, Ken and Colleen made their home in Lawrence, Kansas. He worked for a short time at Kansas University and then decided to become a barber.

He opened a barber shop with his partner Roger Evers and worked there until he

Sixth Street and the South Lawrence Trafficway. But commissioners did not give such marching orders for a project that would build a new $30 million police headquarters building and add 46 new positions to the city’s police force over the next four years.

Commissioners at their weekly meeting didn’t finalize or outright reject either project. But on the recreation center project, commissioners directed staff members to negotiate a pair of new contracts — including a contract with Lawrence-based GouldEvans architects to work on a more specific design and with a consulting firm that can provide an estimate of the economic impact a regional sports complex could have on the local economy.

On the police proposal, commissioners gave less concrete direction, and some specifically said they weren’t comfortable with the aggressive nature of a four-year plan to fund the project.

“I would certainly like to look at how we could pay this off over a longer time period instead of a four-year sprint,” Mayor Bob Schumm said.

The master plan currently is recommending a 4 percent increase in water rates. But the 4 percent increase does not include any funding for the new treatment process.

City officials said it was too soon to say whether the new treatment process would require a larger rate increase. It could be that some projects that are in the current rate plan could be delayed and replaced

members put together for discussion purposes called for a nearly 5 mill property tax increase over the next four years, in addition to a temporary 1 percent sales tax that likely would last for a little more than two years to help fund the new police building.

But City Commissioner Aron Cromwell said he worried about sales tax levels in the community and was concerned that if a new sales tax were added, there would be political pressure to extend its once its original term expired.

“I think you would have to view it as likely being a permanent change,” Cromwell said.

Commissioners did direct staff members to investigate whether there would be ways to debt finance a new police facility over a longer term. Some commissioners said they would be willing to consider raising the city’s self-imposed debt limit make room for the $30 million facility. City Commissioner Mike Amyx, though, indicated he would fight any such effort.

“I think raising the debt limit should absolutely be our last option,” Amyx said.

Amyx also was the one commissioner who said the city may need to think about taking money that currently is being discussed to pay for the regional recreation center and shifting it to the police project.

“I think it might be time to look at priorities and really start balancing what is a want and what is a need right now,” Amyx said.

Other commissioners, though, did not show any signs of backing off the recreation center project.

Later in the meeting, commissioners unanimously directed staff members to negotiate contracts with GouldEvans and with the consulting firm of Convention Sports and Leisure International to study the potential economic impact of the facility.

Commissioners also set a tentative date of Aug. 7 to receive a more detailed briefing on possible agreements with Duane and Steve Schwada, who have proposed donating 50 acres for the project, and with Thomas Fritzel, who has proposed developing the recreation center on a lease purchase agreement for the city.

As envisioned, the project still would include about a 160,000-squarefoot recreation center/ youth fieldhouse, along with an outdoor track and field stadium and a soccer field that would be operated by Kansas University but would be located on ground owned by the city.

dence was presented, and subsequent testing requested by Bledsoe’s attorneys on appeal did not yield useful results.

However, testing using today’s technology could potentially produce a DNA profile, Cateforis said.

Prosecutors have the option of contesting or consenting to the motion, but Cateforis said they expect that the motion ultimately will be granted.

The motion is just the latest in more than a de-

cade of legal maneuvers in the case. In 2008, a U.S. District Court ruled that Bledsoe should be freed from prison because he was denied his constitutional right to effective counsel.

But following an appeal by the Kansas Attorney General’s Office, the higher court reversed the decision, returning Bledsoe to prison.

Texan gets 14 years for area robberies A federal judge sentenced a 26-year-old Texas man Monday to 14 years in prison for committing four robberies, including a Jan. 26 armed robbery of Cirilla’s in Lawrence.

District Judge J. Thomas Marten handed down the sentence to David B. Johnson after he pleaded guilty earlier this year to four counts of robbery and one count of unlawful possession of a firearm after a felony conviction. U.S. Attorney Barry Grissom said Johnson admitted to committing robberies from Jan. 23 to Jan. 28 in Topeka, Lawrence and Wichita.

Authorities had accused Johnson and Brittany R. Holt, 22, of Topeka, with a Jan. 26 armed robbery at Cirilla’s in Lawrence in which a man with a handgun was accused of taking $108 cash from a clerk at the store and a woman allegedly took lingerie, an adult toy and a set of bondage equipment. The couple were caught in a chase in the Wichita area two days after Johnson robbed a Subway restaurant there.

Holt pleaded guilty last week to one federal count of robbery.

Her sentencing is scheduled for August. According to court records, Johnson’s attorney asked for a 10-year prison sentence, saying Johnson had struggled with drugs and alcohol addiction since he was a teenager.

2-year-old dies after falling, being hit by TV HERINGTON (AP) — Herington police say a 2-year-old girl died after a dresser drawer and TV fell on top of her at her home.

Police chief John Pritchard says the girl’s mother found her just after noon Monday.

Police think the girl climbed onto a stool to reach a large TV on a dresser. The dresser tipped, causing the child to fall. A dresser drawer and the TV also fell, hitting her on the head. Her name was not released.

TOPEKA — Gov. Sam Brownback on Tuesday described his tax cuts as a “real live experiment,” which drew the disapproval of a group of fellow Republicans.

Appearing on Morning Joe on MSNBC in New York, Brownback was interviewed about the recent tax cuts he signed into law that will reduce individual rates and eliminate income taxes for the owners of 191,000 businesses.

“On taxes, you need to get your overall rates down, and you need to get your social manipulation out of it, in my estimation, to create growth.

We’ll see how it works. We’ll have a real live experiment,” Brownback said.

Traditional Republicans for Common Sense have been opposed to the tax cuts, saying they will rob needed funds for schools, social services and public safety.

Funding from county Students learn the art of making faces sought for sanitary code enforcement

By Karrey Britt kbritt@ljworld.com

The Lawrence-Douglas County Health Department is requesting an additional $30,237 from the county to help pay for inspections of private water and septic systems.

The money would replace funds lost from a state grant affected by Gov. Sam Brownback’s June 1 veto of the Local Environmental Protection Program.

The program has existed for about 20 years and was budgeted to provide $800,000 statewide for fiscal year 2013. It now provides $750,000.

In Douglas County, the program’s grant helped pay for about one-third of the costs for sanitary code enforcement, while local taxes and fees made up the rest.

“It’s about making sure home owners are meeting codes that protect the environment, and making sure we have safe drinking water,” Charlotte Marthaler, assistant director of the health department, said.

In 2011, expenses for sanitary code enforcement were $91,189 with offsetting revenues of $30,534 from the state, $38,920 in fees and $19,180 in local taxes.

During the past two years, the health department has raised fees, and for 2013 it is budgeting a 9 percent increase from 2011.

Here are some of the current fees for a wastewater system and how they compare with 2011:

Existing residence permit: $265, up 61 percent from $165.

Site evaluation fee: $135, up 80 percent from $75.

Contractor’s exam and license fee: $160, up 68 percent from $95.

Real estate transfer inspection: $250, up 43 percent from $175.

Marthaler said the health department conducts between 18 and 45 inspections per month related to wastewater systems.

If the county does not provide the funding, the health department would consider one or a com-

Test

bination of the following measures:

Reducing the level of service allocated for sanitary code enforcement activities, which would affect quality and timeliness.

Reduce the number of environmental health staff from two full-time positions to one fulltime position and one part-time position. This would affect other services such as pool, air quality and school inspections.

Raise fees by 71 percent to make up the difference in lost funding.

Marthaler said that if the health department has to cut back on services, it could affect installers and home owners who are waiting for inspections to take place.

“It an efficiency and cost effect for a lot of people,” she said.

Craig Weinaug, county administrator, said he will recommend the supplemental funding request from the health department because he thinks it’s a matter of public safety.

“I consider that program essential to public health and safety; however, the commission could disagree,” he said.

The health department already has asked for $725,000 from the county, which is the same funding it provided this year.

The county will have its budget work sessions in mid-July.

Brownback released the following statement in regards to the veto: “Funding for this program was not recommended by the Kansas Water Authority nor the Department of Health and Environment, and was not included in my budget. The program was started in the early 1990s for the purpose of providing local governments with technical assistance and grant funds in order to establish environmental programs specifically suited for local priorities.

Once the programs were established, the intent was to discontinue the state funding.”

“I applaud the governor for finally being truthful with Kansans about the ‘experimental’ nature of his tax plan,” said Rochelle Chronister, a spokeswoman for the group that includes 55 former legislators, all Republicans.

“Unfortunately, this ‘experiment’ will bankrupt our state and create a $2.7 billion deficit within five years,” said Chronister, who is a former assistant majority leader in the House and former state chairwoman of the Kansas Republican Party.

Brownback has said the tax cuts will create jobs and boost the state economy.

On MSNBC, Brownback said Kansas’ tax cuts will make the state more competitive regionally.

“You’ll get a chance to see how this impacts a particular experimental area, and I think Kansas is going to do well,” he said.

Adolfo and Deborah Gomez are charged with two counts of child abuse each after the two children were found with their hands and feet bound.

They also face five charges each of aggravated child endangerment against the two children found bound and their three older children who were in the vehicle, ages 12, 13 and 15.

Adolfo Gomez also faces a count of felony obstruction because he’s accused of resisting officers.

Police said the family was traveling from Illinois to Arizona when their Chevrolet Suburban broke down on Interstate 70 and had been in the Walmart parking lot for two days before the incident with police.

Police have said extended family members who saw nationwide media coverage of the event have contacted them about the children, who were taken into protective custody.

A judge conducted a custody hearing Monday, which was closed to the public, and District Attorney Charles Branson said his office does not comment on those hearings.

The parents remain in the Douglas County Jail in lieu of $50,000 bond each.

David Lavender was frying catfish about 4:30 p.m. Tuesday in his second-story apartment downtown when he went downstairs briefly to let a friend in a locked door.

As he came back up the stairs, he noticed heavy smoke filling the apartment.

“It was bad. I couldn’t see anything. I didn’t even try to go back in,” Lavender said.

Minutes later, Lawrence firefighters responded and began fighting the upstairs blaze in the apartment above Pickleman’s, 818 Mass.

Lawrence-Douglas County Fire Medical Chief Mark Bradford said

Tuesday investigators determined the official cause of the blaze was an accidental cooking fire and that it caused an estimated $55,000 in damage. He said the blaze originated in the kitchen area of the back apartment.

The Douglas County chapter of the American Red Cross was assisting Lavender and his roommate because of the damage to the apartment.

Bradford said residents of a second unit upstairs would be able to remain in their apartment. Jane Blocher, executive director of the Red Cross chapter, said the agency provided food, clothing and lodging assistance to Lavender and his roommate.

The fire did not spread to any adjacent buildings,

“For me to qualify and go to London would be awesome,” Clemons said before a recent workout.

“I just think about looking back on everything, where I came from and everything. It’s going to be huge.”

Clemons, 31, is positive, calm and collected as he talks about the dramatic events that have led him here. He carries with him a reminder of that day, Feb. 21, 2005. A bracelet on his left wrist includes names of the three men who died.

As an Army medic, Clemons was five days from getting out of the country. While on a routine patrol, he was showing his replacements different routes to hospitals when they saw an overturned Humvee in the road.

As he and members of his unit jumped out to help, they were caught in a trap. Insurgents, who had been watching them, detonated an improvised explosive device.

“They set the IED off once the Black Hawk (helicopter) landed and once everybody was inside the circle so they could try to kill as many people as they can,” Clemons said.

He’s thankful for the soldiers and medics who got to him quickly, and Clemons, who grew up in Mississippi and played college football before

INJURY ACCIDENT • A head-on collision Tuesday in southeast Leavenworth County sent two people to an area hospital; one of the victims was in critical condition Tuesday evening.

The accident occurred just after 8:30 a.m. Tuesday at Kansas Highway 32 and 153rd Street about three miles west of Bonner Springs.

Steven C. Hanis, 19, Bonner Springs, was driving west on K-32 when his 1996 Pontiac passenger car left the road to the north.

He overcorrected, and his vehicle entered the oncoming lane on the two-lane highway, striking head-on a 1996 Nissan truck driven by Gerald L. McNemee, 52, De Soto, according to Kansas Highway Patrol reports.

Both were wearing their seat belts, reports said. They were taken to Overland Park Regional Medical Center where McNemee was listed

but Pickleman’s sustained some water damage, Bradford said.

One firefighter who was part of the initial attack crew was injured. He was alert when he was placed onto a stretcher about 5:15 p.m. with an apparent heat-related injury. Bradford said his injuries were not considered to be lifethreatening.

No other injuries were reported.

The response to the fire caused most of the 800 block of Massachusetts Street to be blocked for several hours Tuesday evening.

Bradford said that downtown fires can present challenges because buildings are so close together and because each building is often split be-

tween commercial and residential use. It can be more difficult to tell how many people are occupying the building initially.

“Any time we have a downtown type of fire, we cringe because it will move very, very quickly,” he said.

Bradford said the department did call for assistance from a Johnson County fire crew based on

— Kortney Clemons, Iraq War veteran and Purple Heart recipient joining the Army in 2001, eventually recovered after six surgeries. In Minnesota, he later met with family members of the three soldiers who died in the attack.

“It was probably one of the hardest things to do, but I’m just fortunate to have my life because we were so close,” he said.

“We were less than three feet apart from each other when the IED went off.”

After his right leg was amputated above the knee, he walked again for the first time about a year later. Later he saw someone running on a prosthetic leg.

“It got me all excited,” he said. “I began to try to do things to get back into athletics.”

MEDICAL CALL

• One person was injured in a fall Tuesday afternoon in northern Lawrence and flown by helicopter ambulance to an area hospital, Lawrence-Douglas County Fire Medical Chief Mark Bradford said.

The incident occurred about 4:20 p.m. on Michigan Circle, which is northwest of Michigan Street and River Ridge Road and also north of Interstate 70. Bradford said the person fell from higher than 10 feet and was taken by a LifeStar air ambulance to the hospital.

Clemons lives in Lawrence with his wife, Candy. His daughter, Daytriona Clemons, 15, joins them here in the summers.

He is a member of Team Ossur, a group of international athletes who work to raise awareness about the potential of people who live with limb loss.

Ossur manufactures his prosthetic leg as well.

His coach at KU learns from Clemons on a daily basis.

“He’s taught me to be a better coach,” Redwine said. “Because the first thing people want to do is to give sympathy to him, and that’s not how he works. When I learned that, I became a better coach.”

Clemons’ goal for now is to be able to represent his country in London, but he also has a broader perspective in mind.

“This journey that I’ve been on is what I’m going to look back on and hang my hat on the most,” he said. “In life, things may not always go the way that you want or would like them to, but it’s the way that you handle those situations that determines what type of person that you are.

“I just hope that I have ... influenced someone to never give up. Never quit no matter what the situation is.”

KDOT studies effects of less driving WICHITA — The Kansas Department of Transportation is studying the longterm impact of a decrease in revenue from motor fuel taxes caused by state residents who are driving less and using more fuelefficient vehicles.

While Kansans drove slightly more miles in 2011 than 2010, the trend for several years has been the opposite direction, according to figures from the transportation department reported Tuesday in The Wichita Eagle.

“It’s an issue that all states are aware of as well as motor fuel taxes are going down,” said Sally Lunsford, spokeswoman for the transportation department.

“And of course, they are the primary mechanism for funding our state highway system, so it’s a concern.”

Kansans drove 82,250,374 miles every day last year, compared with 81,916,438 in 2010 and 83,137,912 in 2006.

Jeannine Koranda, a spokeswoman for the Kansas Department of Revenue, said that motor fuel taxes “have been flat for a number of years, and the expectation is they will remain so as fuel costs continue to rise and motor vehicles become more fuel-efficient.”

Leif Holliday, a traffic and field operations engineer for KDOT, said traffic statewide dropped in 2007 to levels seen five to eight years earlier.

Board rejects group’s challenge Giving the gift of free parking to remove legislator from ballot

By Scott Rothschild srothschild@ljworld.com

TOPEKA — State officials on Tuesday rejected a challenge by a gay rights group that opposed the candidacy of a legislator who said she moved to a church to establish residency in a House district.

T h e State Objection B o a r d , Kobach made up of Secretary of State Kris Kobach, Attorney General D e r e k Schmidt and Lt. Schmidt Gov. Jeff Colyer, all Republicans, also rejected the appeal of a Democratic state H o u s e candidate Colyer whose filing paperwork was lost.

The Objection Board held a marathon session to decide 10 ballot disputes in the wake of court-ordered redistricting on June 7 that shook the Kansas political landscape, sending dozens of candidates scurrying to file for office by the June 11 deadline.

At least six incumbent legislators who had been drawn out of their districts moved to run in the Aug. 7 primaries.

One of those was Rep. Jan Pauls, D-Hutchinson. She had represented the 102nd District for two decades, but the new map put her house in the 104th District.

So, she and her hus-

band, Ron, moved to a vacant church in the 102nd that they had bought in 2003. She said they are renovating it to live there.

But Thomas Witt, executive director of the Kansas Equality Coalition, filed a challenge, alleging that the vacant church was not a residence under city of Hutchinson ordinances, and therefore Pauls could not claim it as her legal residence.

“This is not a home.

This is a church,” said Witt, who has often criticized Pauls for her opposition to gay rights.

The pews are still in the church, Witt noted.

He said Pauls was “carpetbagging,” and he told the board that if they allow it, any time a person throws a sleeping bag on the floor of a gasoline station, tavern or a vacant lot, they could claim that as their residence for candidacy purposes.

Pauls said she is in the process of moving from her other home into the church and had spent four or five nights at the church since June 11.

“It has always been our intention to move into the church,” she said.

The board members voted, 3-0, for Pauls and against Witt’s challenge.

Kobach said Pauls’ intent was clear when she changed her voter registration to the church address. Schmidt said no one from the city of Hutchinson had verified if, in fact, Pauls was living in the church illegally. Colyer said he didn’t have a problem with what Pauls had done.

The board also voted against a challenge from Democrat Larry Meeker, who decided to run in House District 17 but was declared invalid by the Secretary of State’s office.

On June 11, Meeker, former mayor of Lake Quivira, and a number of other Democrats signed their declarations of candidacies at the Johnson County Courthouse, and then Tyler Longpine, who works for House Minority Leader Paul Davis, D-Lawrence, took the forms to Topeka to file the paperwork and pay the fees at the Secretary of State’s office just moments before the deadline.

The final hours of filing were chaotic, and somehow Meeker’s paperwork was lost and his candidacy wasn’t recorded.

Longpine swore he handed in Meeker’s required papers, but Kobach’s employees said they checked numerous times and couldn’t find them.

“This is the case of the missing form,” Kobach said.

Schmidt said the courtordered redistricting and short period before the filing deadline led to problems. “This is a confused circumstance at the time of filing,” he said.

But board members indicated they were uncomfortable allowing a person on the ballot without a filing document or fee. Kobach abstained from the vote, but Schmidt and Colyer voted against Meeker.

Meeker said he is exploring his options. He could run a write-in campaign during the primary to get the Democratic nomination, or he could run as an independent in the November election.

Earlier, the Objection Board refused to reconsider a decision by Kobach to reassign more than 80 legislative candidates to the correct districts after the legislative boundaries were redrawn by the court.

Committee narrows list of county health priorities to 6 Access to dental COMMUNITY HEALTH COMMITTEE services doesn’t The Community Health Asment Project; Chip Blaser, of sessment Steering Committee Douglas County Community make the cut was formed in December and Foundation; Erika Dvorske,

By Karrey Britt kbritt@ljworld.com

Douglas County Dental Clinic executive director Julie Branstrom was surprised to learn that access to dental care didn’t make the list of community health priorities.

“I believe when you have a Free Dental Day and you have people lining up at 8 p.m. the night before to receive free services, that’s a pretty good illustration that we have barriers, that people aren’t able to access care,” she said.

In 2011, there were more than 470 cases of preventable emergency room visits at Lawrence Memorial Hospital because of dental problems. A recent report also found that 1 in 5 Douglas County residents had not seen a dentist in the past 12 months.

“I am hopeful that access to dental care will still be an issue that is given priority and that it will be an issue that is worked on,” Branstrom said.

The Lawrence-Douglas County Health Department has been leading an effort to put a plan in place to help improve the health of residents.

“We really want to move the community forward on how do we work together collectively and creatively to make change,” said Charlotte Marthaler, assistant director of the health department.

Earlier this year, it collected information through one-on-one interviews, focus groups and an online survey. Then it released a report with its findings

There were 13 areas identified as needing improvement. In May, the health department held four public forums to gather input on those 13 areas. During the forums, mental health emerged as the top concern.

While the community is working on all of those areas, Marthaler said, the health department wants to focus on just a handful.

“Trying to bring this collective action around any one of these priorities, we believe will help us to make real change in the community,” Marthaler said.

On June 12, a 12-member Community Health Assessment Steering Committee met and narrowed the priority list to six, which was presented to the health department board during Monday’s meeting. They are:

The appointments come after a change in the way KU appoints university distinguished professors.

Previously, the university filled the spots when a position became vacant but will now consider nominations once every two years.

The distinguished professorships come with a $15,000 stipend that is permanently added to the professors’ salary, said Gavin Young, a KU spokesman.

Old Settlers festivities set for this weekend

By Andy Hyland ahyland@ljworld.com

For the 111th year, the city of Oskaloosa will celebrate the city’s annual Old Settlers festival.

Events are scheduled Thursday, Friday and Saturday at the town square and courthouse lawn, 300 Jefferson St. Matt Miller, a member of the committee that organizes the annual event, said the theme for this year’s festival is “Embracing Traditions and New Beginnings.”

Fed may unveil new step after meeting WASHINGTON — Anticipation is high that the Federal Reserve will announce some new step today to try to rejuvenate the U.S. economy and boost investor confidence.

Just what that might be is unclear.

One option would be an effort to drive long-term interest rates even lower to try to spur borrowing and spending. A more modest step would be for the Fed to stress its readiness to do more should the economy weaken further.

Or the Fed might do or promise nothing further — not for now, anyway.

Yet Wall Street rallied Tuesday on hopes that the Fed will announce when its two-day meeting ends today that more help is on the way.

Chairman Ben Bernanke and other Fed officials have acknowledged the slumping U.S. economy and the threats posed by Europe’s debt crisis.

At the least, analysts expect the Fed to say or unveil something to signal that it’s willing to provide further support.

The Fed has kept its key policy lever, the federal funds rate, at a record low near zero since December 2008.

And it’s said it plans to keep it there until at least late 2014.

Given that it can’t cut short-term rates any further, the Fed has tried to further reduce long-term rates by buying more than $2 trillion in Treasury bonds and mortgage-backed securities. The idea is for those lower rates to help boost spending, hiring and economic growth.

Trash fairness A new trash-cart requirement isn’t going to be popular with many local residents, but offering a cost incentive to generate less trash at least would be more fair.

L

awrence city commissioners are right to push staff members to come up with a system that rewards local residents who generate little trash.

Like it or not, it appears Lawrence residents soon will be required to place their trash in city-issued carts that can be handled by automated trucks. The system supposedly will cut down on worker injuries and make the city’s trash system more efficient. The plan presented to commissioners last week called for a 65-gallon trash cart to be the standard receptacle issued by the city at no charge. Residents who think they need more trash capacity can rent 90-gallon carts for $1 per month.

Carts that hold 35 gallons also would be available, but residents with those carts would pay the same trash fee as those with 65-gallon carts.

After hearing from several residents at last week’s meeting, city commissioners agreed that the system wasn’t fair to people who generate a small amount of trash. If part of the city’s goal is to try to conserve landfill space, it should be encouraging residents to recycle and limit their trash. It appears that the city is at least a couple of years away from instituting its own curbside recycling system, but that doesn’t mean the city shouldn’t be promoting recycling through existing services and drop-off sites.

City staff members expressed concern that giving a cost break for a 35-gallon container could cause more people to opt for the smaller container but then make a habit of putting out additional bags of trash, which would undercut the automated truck system. The city plans to pick up additional bags, at least for now, but have route drivers keep a log of people who habitually put out bags.

Allowing people to put out bags without paying an additional fee is going to be a problem. Unless the city makes people pay for a special trash pickup or buy stickers for additional bags of trash, people are going to take advantage of the system regardless of the size of the trash cart.

The city probably is trying to mitigate negative reaction to the new cart requirement, but not enforcing the new rules isn’t the answer. The better answer is to simply be fair: Charge people who can put all their trash in a 35-gallon cart less than those who need a 65-gallon or 90-gallon cart. If people occasionally have to put out additional bags, make them pay a little extra for that service. If they do it often, they will find it cost-effective to step up to a larger cart and pay a small monthly fee.

No matter what the city does, there is going to be some negative response from people who like their current trash service and don’t want to use or store a large city trash cart. The least the city can do is reward people who make less use of the city landfill.

In long term, there’s hope for Egypt For the last 10 weeks, American University of Cairo professor Ezzedine C. Fishere has been writing a serialized novel about a failed 2011 Egyptian revolution, one that is followed by military rule. This leads, in turn, to a second wave of protest and political chaos.

The novel predicts that it will take nine years for Egyptians to find their way out of this nightmare. But Fishere says today’s younger generation — now faced with a standoff between the Muslim Brotherhood and army generals — will find a way out sooner.

I believe Fishere is correct.

Of course, this week things look grim. Just before the final round of presidential elections during the weekend, the Egyptian military carried out a “soft coup” to prevent the Muslim Brotherhood from taking control of both parliament and the presidency.

Two days before the runoff vote, a rushed court decision ruled unconstitutional the election law under which the Brotherhood won nearly half the seats in parliament. (All the judges had been appointed during the Mubarak regime.)

Then the military moved quickly to dismiss the parliament and seize the power to make laws and control military matters. It also took charge of the process of drafting a new constitution, after which, the generals say, there will be new parliamentary elections.

After all this, many Egyptians expected Ahmed Shafik, the military’s candidate for president, to win, but Moham-

First, even had the military not acted, the Egyptian public had already rejected Brotherhood attempts at Islamization.” med Morsi, the Brotherhood’s candidate, eked out a victory.

Shafik is not conceding, setting up a possible confrontation.

Meantime, the Brotherhood insists that the shuttered parliament will convene, even as soldiers surround the building.

No one knows what will happen next, but many Egyptians expect instability and violence.

So what reasons do I have to hold out hope?

First, even had the military not acted, the Egyptian public had already rejected Brotherhood attempts at Islamization. During my recent trip to Cairo, it was clear that the popularity of the Muslim Brotherhood had fallen sharply since parliamentary elections in November.

Working-class Egyptians had voted for Brotherhood candidates because they were viewed as devout and honest.

(Corruption is a huge issue in

Egypt.) But many soured on the Brotherhood because its members delivered little during months in political office.

When the group reneged on its pledge not to run a presidential candidate, many Egyptians felt it was too hungry for power.

The Brotherhood had also alienated most of the young revolutionaries who organized the Arab Spring revolt; the Islamists claimed revolutionary credentials but didn’t stand with the young rebels against the police in Tahrir Square.

They also alienated Coptic Christians, who make up 10 percent of the population, as well as many urban women.

Moreover, Brotherhood leaders misjudged the country’s level of religiosity. At first, they insisted they would not impose religious law, but as their power grew, they began calling at their rallies for implementation of sharia. Instead of focusing on economic reforms in parliament, their members talked of rolling back women’s rights, or banning alcohol or beach tourism.

Thus, in the first round of presidential elections, the Brotherhood’s percentage of votes dropped by half from what it received in parliamentary elections. Had nonIslamist voters united around one candidate instead of splitting their votes among several, they would have easily knocked Morsi out.

So why did Morsi just win the presidency? First, the Muslim Brotherhood’s social networks, especially in rural areas, can still deliver voters,

which matters more when the turnout is lower. Also, some Egyptians believed the election of Shafik meant a return to the old order, with its corruption and repressive police.

So they held their noses and voted for Morsi, as did others angered by the court decision disbanding parliament.

This leads to my second reason for a bit of optimism: Morsi’s victory says less about his popularity than it does about the unpopularity of the old order and its candidate.

This means that the army will be hard-pressed to restore the old order even if it tries.

Egypt is not Algeria, where Islamists and the military were willing to fight to the death and kill tens of thousands of civilians. Nor, in these times, is Egypt’s military capable of imitating the Turkish army of decades past, which regularly seized power when it became dissatisfied with civilian rule.

This doesn’t mean there won’t be chaos and some bloodshed in the short term. But Egyptians have become more political and are learning from their mistakes; whoever holds power must deliver economic and police reforms, or there will be another revolution coming.

New political parties are forming. There will be pushback if Egyptians are squeezed between the army and the Islamists. Somehow I can’t imagine that it will take nine years to escape from that trap.

PUBLIC FORUM

Archaic beliefs

Thoughts while awaiting ruling Every so often rather than devote a column to a single subject I try to cover a variety of current legal issues.

I’m going to use that format today.

To start with is a subject on the minds of millions of Americans: the Supreme Court decision in the challenge brought against the Affordable Care Act (often referred to as “Obamacare” by its critics). There is still no news from the high court. It’s difficult to know just what that means other than, perhaps, Chief Justice Roberts has an appreciation for letting suspense build. It’s possible that the court will publish its opinion this week. If it doesn’t, that means that the decision, if it is to be released at all this term — something everyone believes will happen — will come next week.

In the meantime speculation is all over the news. Most commentators and jurists think that one of three things will happen: 1) The court will strike down the mandate and very little else, leaving much of the law in place; 2) The court will strike down the whole law; 3) The court will strike down the mandate and some of the law, but leave the rest in place. Of course, a few people still believe that the court will uphold all of the act, but the betting is on at least some of the law’s demise.

Whatever the court decides to do, it seems probable that the decision will cause a flurry

of political moves by both the Republican and Democratic candidates and will probably require action by Congress. Two other interesting possibilities also exist. First, this will give us all a chance to rate the hundreds of commentators as to how good their predictions were. Second, whoever is on the losing side of the decision will attack the court for its reasoning.

On a totally different subject, Roger Clemens was acquitted Monday on all counts of perjury charges. For those of you who don’t follow the legal side of sports, Clemens was accused of lying to Congress about his use of performance-enhancing drugs.

While I certainly don’t condone the use of such drugs, I have to say that I’m quite happy about the verdict.

Clemens is one of the 20th century’s greatest baseball stars and was, prior to these accusations, a true American hero. I’m afraid that I’m just a bit tired of prosecutors and Congress spending vast amounts of their time going after sports figures for drug use, let alone for allegedly lying about such use.

These days we have too few heroes as it is. I hope that we can soon see an end to these investigations and prosecutions unless the evidence against the accused is really undeniable.

Finally, for those of you contemplating going to law school or who have been to law school already, there’s a new book out by a law professor at Washington University in St. Louis, Brian Tamanaha, that is likely to be the summer’s “must read.”

In “Failing Law Schools” Tamanaha analyzes the current state of American legal education and finds it to be nothing short of scandalous. The book is a stinging indictment of current legal education, its methods, its financing and its public role. I suspect that every American law professor and many law students will be reading and talking about this book in the months to come. I’ll be discussing it in more detail in a later column.

— Mike Hoeflich, a distinguished professor in the Kansas University School of Law, writes a regular

To the editor: Jill Cannon made sense in her guest column (June 9) regarding state interference in women’s health. Sadly, her statements will fall on deaf ears. Whether it’s opposition to Planned Parenthood, contraception or abortion, grayhaired old men and unmarried clergymen will oppose women’s decisions on reproductive rights.

While they try to convince us they’re protecting the unborn, the need to dominate women is at the core of their crusade. Keep the “little woman” pregnant, in the kitchen and dependent by controlling the money. As she tries to provide for her children, the man will have complete authority over her.

To find where this animosity comes from, our conservative, evangelistic brothers will need to trace their roots to the Bible. It’s likely they’ve never forgiven Eve and Eve’s daughters for the Garden of Eden episode. Although it didn’t take much effort to dupe Adam, the blame for introducing sin into the world is laid at Eve’s feet. As a result, they’re convinced that no woman has the moral fortitude to make the right decision and they make sure we are reminded of that daily.

You may win a few battles, but you won’t win this war, gentlemen. This younger generation of males will not be governed by such archaic beliefs. They want equal partners, not subservient robots. How sad that our Topeka legislators are dominated by mind-sets dating back to the last century. It’s time for women to fight back at the ballot box. In the 2012 election, get out and vote for those candidates representing your best interests.

‘Hoch’ gets win, first hit for K.C. HOUSTON (AP) — Kansas City’s Luke Hochevar endured some good-natured ribbing from his teammates after pitching one of his best games of the season.

They found it funny that he was so happy about getting his first major league hit.

Hochevar pitched into the eighth inning, two relievers completed the shutout, and Billy Butler hit a solo home run to lead the Royals to a 2-0 win over the Houston Astros on Tuesday night.

One player yelled at reporters from the shower area in the clubhouse to make sure to ask him about his secondinning single. Jeff Francoeur and Butler continued to joke about it when asked about his pitching.

“Who cares about his outing, he got his first hit,” they both said one after another while chuckling.

Hochevar entered the game with nine strikeouts in 13 at-bats since Hochevar 2008.

“It’s been a long time coming,” he said.

“It hasn’t been pretty at all.”

Hochevar earned his first victory since May 12. He had four losses and two no-decisions since his previous win.

Kansas City manager Ned Yost raved about his work on the mound.

“That was a tremendous ball game by Luke Hochevar,” Yost said. “He’s getting back to who he is. His three core pitches, four-seam fastball, curveball, changeup are very effective together in combination.”

Hochevar (4-7) pitched no-hit ball into the fifth inning and allowed five hits and struck out six in a season-high 7 2-3 innings.

“I wish we could have got him through it,” Yost said of the eighth inning. “But I can’t live with myself if he gives up the lead in the eighth inning with our pen.”

Hochevar said he’s made some adjustments since the beginning of the season that are starting to come together for him.

“I think it helps more changing speeds, and I’m not so one-dimensional,” he said. “Changing speeds more has helped a lot.”

KANSAS UNIVERSITY NEWCOMER MILTON DOYLE WORKS OUT with the Jayhawks for the first time during Bill Self’s basketball camp on Monday at the Horejsi Center.

Doyle hoping to live up to legacy of Chicago Jayhawks

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

The city of Chicago has been kind to Kansas University’s basketball program during the Bill Self era.

“I know Sherron (Collins) from being back home and Mario (Little) from here and some other guys (Julian Wright, Jamari Traylor),” said Milton Doyle, a 6-foot-4, 175-pound guard from Marshall High — the latest Windy City native to play for Self’s Jayhawks.

He spoke to the media on Tuesday in Allen Fieldhouse on his second full day on campus.

“I’ll try to follow in their footsteps and play like they do,” Doyle said.

Doyle — he’s never played against KU red-shirt freshman Traylor of Chicago’s Julian

“

It feels good to be here, to finally work out and be around the team, be around the guys . They welcomed me in like I was already part of the team from the beginning.”

— Incoming Kansas University freshman guard Milton Doyle High — initially was committed to Florida International, a team coached by Chicago native Isiah Thomas.

Doyle decommitted after Thomas’ firing in April.

“Basically I was sold before I came, knowing the history of Kansas,” said Doyle, who visited KU in mid-May. “Finally being here, I was able to put it together. It was a hard decision ... but it’s Kansas.”

Doyle, who still needs to have a couple of online courses approved by the NCAA Clearinghouse before he’s free to play at KU, also had Marquette on his revised list, but never visited the Milwaukee school.

“It feels good to be here, to finally work out and be around the team, be around the guys,” said Doyle, who will wear his high school jersey number — 25 — at KU. “They welcomed me in like I was already part of the team from the beginning.”

KU coach Bill Self said Tuesday that Doyle, who averaged 19.0 points, 7.0 rebounds, 5.0 assists and 5.0 steals per game his senior season at Marshall, figures to play both point and shooting guard.

“I think there’s a difference in being a point guard and being able to play some point,”

Self said. “He’s a guy who definitely can play some point, no question. The way we play, whoever gets it brings it. Tyshawn (Taylor) wasn’t a true point at least the way we played. Elijah (Johnson) is not a true point. We’ve got a lot of combo guards. He’ll be one of those combo guards.

“He’s a good athlete, has great length. He has to get stronger, which is natural for all freshmen. He probably has to get where his stroke is a little more consistent. We have minutes to be earned back there from a depth standpoint.

He should provide us extra depth, no question.”

Of his role, Doyle said: “Combo guard that can play any spot, who is able to go out there and play whatever the coach tells me to play ... a good defender, all around player.”

Chalmers clutch as Heat take 3-1 lead The Associated Press

MIAMI —LeBron James better get well fast. He’s about to play for a championship.

Hardly able to move, James returned from a left leg injury to make the tiebreaking 3-pointer with 2:54 remaining and the Miami Heat held off Russell Westbrook and the Oklahoma City Thunder for a 104-98 victory on Tuesday night and a 3-1 lead in the NBA Finals.

With James watching the final moments, Mario Chalmers finished off a stellar 25-point effort that matched Dwyane Wade.

James had 26 points, 12 assists and nine rebounds, only missing a triple-double because he was on the bench at the end after hurting his leg in a fall near the Thunder basket.

Game 5 is Thursday night and James will have a chance to finish a championship chase that started in Cleveland before he famously — or infamously — left for South Florida before last sea-

MIAMI HEAT POWER FORWARD CHRIS BOSH (1) CONGRATULATES point guard Mario Chalmers during the second half of NBA Finals Game 4 against the Oklahoma City Thunder on Tuesday in Miami. The Heat won 104-98. son. No team has blown a 3-1 lead in the finals.

Westbrook scored 43 points for the Thunder, who wasted an early 17-point lead but were never out of the

game because of their sensational point guard. Kevin Durant had 28 points but James Harden threw in another clunker, finishing with eight points on 2-of-10 shooting.

Westbrook and Durant were the only Thunder players to score in the last 16:46.

James stumbled to the court on a drive midway through the fourth quarter, staying on the offensive end of the floor as the Heat regained possession on a blocked shot, and he made a short jumper that made it 9290. After Westbrook missed a jumper, the Heat called timeout as James gingerly went to the court. Unable to walk off, he was carried to the sideline by a pair of teammates.

He returned to a huge roar with a little over 4 minutes left and the Heat down two, and after Chris Bosh tied it, James slowly walked into a pull-up 3-point attempt — perhaps doing so knowing he couldn’t drive by anyone.

That made it 97-94, and when Wade followed with a layup with 2:19 left, the Heat finally enough room to withstand Westbrook, who kept coming all night.

KU men’s hoops extends streak of APR perfection

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

The Kansas University men’s basketball team may be riding an unprecedented streak of eight straight Big 12 Conference championships, but that’s not the only streak that has school officials smiling.

Tuesday morning, KU released the results of the most recent Academic Progress Rate numbers from the 2010-11 academic year, and they revealed that head coach Bill Self’s squad had delivered a perfect APR score of 1,000 for the sixth straight year. What’s more, Self later in the day said he expected the 2011-12 APR score to again come in at a perfect 1,000.

In all, KU’s athletic department has two programs (men’s hoops and women’s cross country) with perfect multiyear APR scores (from 2007-08 through 2010-11) and five (men’s hoops, women’s cross country, women’s golf, women’s tennis and volleyball) that recorded the 1,000-point mark during 2010-11.

OKLAHOMA CITY THUNDER POINT GUARD RUSSELL WESTBROOK HEADS DOWN THE FLOOR against the Miami Heat during the first half of Game 4 of the NBA finals Tuesday in Miami.

NBA Finals CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B

“Whatever it takes. No excuses,� said Wade, who had to shake off his own aches and pains after landing hard on his back in the first half following a spectacular block by Serge Ibaka. “You don’t want to leave this arena saying you missed opportunities.�

Chalmers sure didn’t. The player who was struggling so badly that the Thunder put Durant on him in hopes of avoiding further foul trouble made 9 of 15 shots, scoring more points than he had in the previous three games. “Mario Chalmers is a winner,� Wade added. “He’s due for a big game and he came through for us.�

The Heat couldn’t have done it without James, who refused to let any pain prevent him from taking the biggest step of his career.

The Heat never got past their second finals victory last year, with James’ struggles their biggest problem as they lost the last three to Dallas. But he was at his brilliant best in this one, keeping up his scoring surge but also willingly kicking it out to open teammates whenever he was double-teamed.

He tried to play through the pain, but the Heat had to call another timeout and remove him for good shortly after his go-ahead basket. There was no immediate word on the extent of his injury.

Bosh finished with 13 points and nine rebounds for the Heat, who quickly climbed out of the 17-point hole by scoring 16 straight points, with Chalmers and backup Norris Cole helping steady them until James and Wade got going.

James and Durant sat alone on their benches moments before the game, Durant staring quietly toward the floor and James saying something to pump himself up. Then they went out to start, and this time Durant stayed away from him.

In foul trouble the last two games, he began the game covering Chalmers, an adjustment that freed him from the burden of defending James. It kept Durant safe from fouls — but the Thunder probably didn’t count on the scoring explosion from Chalmers after he had totaled just five over the previous two games.

PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Philadelphia Phillies rookie infielder Freddy Galvis was suspended 50 games by Major League Baseball on Tuesday for testing positive for a banned substance.

Galvis is currently on the disabled list with a back injury and will begin serving his suspension immediately.

MLB said Galvis tested positive for a metabolite of Clostebol, a performance-enhancing substance. “A trace amount of a banned substance — 80 parts in a trillion — was detected in my urine sample,� Galvis said in a statement. “I am extremely disappointed in what has transpired.

I cannot understand how even this tiny particle of a banned substance got into my body. “I have not and never would knowingly use anything illegal to enhance my performance. I have always tried to follow the team’s strength and conditioning methods, listen to the trainers, work out hard and eat right.

“

I am extremely disappointed in what has transpired. I cannot understand how even this tiny particle of a banned substance got into my body.� — Philadelphia infielder Freddy Galvis Unfortunately, the rules are the rules and I will be suspended.�

Galvis, 5-foot-10 and 170 pounds, had filled in nicely for injured second baseman Chase Utley before getting hurt. He was batting .226 with three homers, 15 doubles and 24 RBIs. It’s likely Galvis will be on the DL for the duration of his suspension. “It’s disappointing,� Phillies general manager Ruben Amaro Jr. said. “We fully support the program and the decision. At the same time, we support the player, we want him to get healthy and get back on the field. We believe in the kid and think he has a great future for us.�

Galvis was primarily a shortstop in the minors and likely would’ve started at Triple-A this year because former MVP Jimmy Rollins plays his position. But Galvis moved over to second base in spring training to replace Utley and he made the transition look easy with his outstanding glove work.

The 22-year-old Galvis suffered a pars fracture of his L45 vertebra while swinging the bat during a game against the Los Angeles Dodgers on June 6. He is wearing a brace for at least three weeks and can’t do any physical activity. “I’d like to apologize to all my fans, especially here in Philadelphia and back home in Venezuela, to my teammates and to the Phillies organization,� Galvis said. “I am looking forward to putting this behind me, rehabilitating my back and returning to the Phillies as soon as possible to try to help them win another World Series.�

MUSTACHIOED FLORIDA STATE STARTING PITCHER SCOTT SITZ DELIVERS against UCLA in the first inning of an NCAA College World Series elimination game on Tuesday in Omaha, Neb. The Seminoles defeated the Bruins, 4-1.

Florida State knocks UCLA out of CWS OMAHA, NEB. — Scott Sitz gave up five hits and struck out eight in a season-high 6 2-3 innings, and Florida State eliminated UCLA from the College World Series with a 4-1 victory Tuesday night.

Florida State (50-16) plays Arizona on Thursday, needing to beat the Wildcats twice to reach the championship round.

No. 2 national seed UCLA (48-16) was knocked out a day after No. 1 Florida was eliminated from the opposite bracket.

Sitz (4-3) had not made it through five innings in six of his previous seven outings. The junior held the Bruins to two singles through five innings and struck out the side in the sixth after UCLA loaded the bases.

UCLA starter Zack Weiss (3-3) was pulled after getting just one out. Bases-loaded walks in the opening inning produced the Seminoles’ first two runs.

In today’s CWS action, tournament darling Kent State will face South Carolina in an elimination game at 7 p.m.

Lakers PG to test free agency EL SEGUNDO, CALIF. — Los Angeles Lakers guard Ramon Sessions is declining his player option for next season to test free agency.

Lakers general manager Mitch Kupchak said Tuesday he wishes Sessions had picked up the $4.55 million option for next year, but the club will still make an effort to sign the point guard.

Sessions took over as the Lakers’ starting point guard shortly after they acquired him from Cleveland near the trade deadline. Los Angeles also traded longtime starter Derek Fisher in a separate deal.

Sessions averaged 12.7 points, 6.2 assists and 3.8 rebounds in 23 regular-season games, revitalizing the Lakers with his speed and playmaking. But he largely struggled in the postseason, averaging 6.8 points and 3.0 assists in the first playoff experience of his five-year NBA career.

Riley wins Chuck Daly Award MIAMI — Miami Heat president Pat Riley is this year’s recipient of the Chuck Daly Lifetime Achievement Award, presented by the National Basketball Coaches Association.

He is the fifth person to receive the award, joining Tommy Heinsohn in 2009, Jack Ramsay and Tex Winter in 2010 and Lenny Wilkens in 2011.

The award commemorates Daly’s life in basketball, and his “standard of integrity, competitive excellence and tireless promotion� of the game.

Riley and Daly coached against each other for years, and became particularly close when Daly was dying of pancreatic cancer in 2009.

COLLEGE BASKETBALL

Melo talks about suspension INDIANAPOLIS — Fab Melo now has a chance to explain what happened at Syracuse.

Melo was ruled academically ineligible for seven games last season, including the NCAA tournament, and now that he’s making the rounds on the draft workout list, Melo is trying to answer NBA scouts.

His explanation is simple: Until four years ago, the Brazilian didn’t even speak English.

Melo says team officials appear to be “comfortable� with his answers, and that he still expects to be drafted in the first round though not among the first 14 picks.

Melo also says he watched the tourney games in Syracuse, N.Y., something that hurt to see. He was last year’s Big East Defensive Player of the Year.

Irish sign Brey to extension SOUTH BEND, IND. — Notre Dame announced a new 10-year contract with men’s basketball coach Mike Brey.

The school said Tuesday that the deal will run through June 2022. Financial terms were not disclosed.

Brey has led the Irish to six straight 20-win seasons. He has been named the Big East coach of the year three times and is 133-89 in league play.

Former Saint claims innocence NEW YORK — Former New Orleans defensive end Anthony Hargrove says it’s not his voice saying “Give me the money� in a video used by the NFL as evidence in its investigation of the Saints bounty program.

A day after Hargrove and three of his exteammates had appeals of their suspensions heard at NFL headquarters, he returned to the sidewalk outside the league offices Tuesday for an informal news conference. Hargrove read a 13-minute prepared statement, often sounding like a colorful defense attorney giving a closing argument while making references to Bill Clinton and the Mona Lisa.

On Monday, the NFL showed reporters a clip from the 2010 NFC championship game in which Hargrove purportedly made the “money� comment about injuring then-Vikings QB Brett Favre. Hargrove insisted that it was someone else uttering those words. “I’ve never offered nor received money to intentionally hurt a player,� Hargrove said.

Hargrove, now with Green Bay, was docked eight games.

On Monday, Hargrove, Will Smith, Scott Fujita and Jonathan Vilma each attended appeals hearings for their suspensions with NFL commissioner Roger Goodell.

Self to bat in All-Star Game SCOREBOARD

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Bill Self was allowed to choose his own jersey number for the All-Star Legends & Celebrity Softball Game, set for Sunday, July 8, at Kauffman Stadium.

“I have a unique number, as a matter of fact,” Self, Kansas U n i v e r - Self sity’s basketball coach said Tuesday in Allen Fieldhouse. “I didn’t know what number to pick. I figured (George, No. 5) Brett would be playing and some other guys would be playing, so I went with my own, unique number. I’m ‘08’

— I thought that was a good number to pick,” Self added, “08” ostensibly referring to the year KU won the national basketball title.

Self, who was a good softball player back in the day, will be joined by Royals greats Brett, Bo Jackson and Mike Sweeney plus Ernie Banks, Andre Dawson, Rollie Fingers, Rickey Henderson, Ozzie Smith, Dave Winfield, Joe Carter and Mike Piazza.

Others in the game: Emmy Award winner Eric Stonestreet, Chiefs quarterback Matt Cassel, “Mad Men” star Jon Hamm, “Glee” actor Chord Overstreet, “American Idol” contestants Haley Reinhart and David Cook, “Desperate Housewives” actor James Denton, soccer’s Carlos Bocanegra, comedian Horatio Sanz,

country singer David Nail, UFC light heavyweight champion Jon Jones, “Extreme Makeover” carpenter Paul Dimeo and USA Softball’s Jennie Finch.

“I think I’m going to have to go on a diet just to get in the pants size I gave them,” Self said.

“Going way back ... I probably haven’t swung a baseball bat since 1993. It hasn’t been quite 20 years.

We had a big-time team back in Stillwater,” added Oklahoma State graduate Self. “Seven, eight years after (graduation) we pretty much ran that city league down there. I’ve not had a chance to play since then. I’m going to go to the cages a little bit and make sure I can hit a slowpitch softball.

“I still feel I’ll be able to do something in that celebrity all-star game

“It was fun. I learned a lot. I think I grew a lot as a player, too,” said Young, who was one of 12 players asked to play in a tournament this week in Puerto Rico, but was told he would be bumped from the Olympic team once several Puerto Rican pro players reported to camp.

“I worked on my shot, my handles a bit. Hopefully I’ll show a little bit of improvement when I get back in the gym, today,” Young added.

Young said he will try to make the Olympic team in 2016. “I’ll go back next year for the world championships,” he said. “I really didn’t get an answer what

KANSAS UNIVERSITY SENIOR FORWARD KEVIN YOUNG IS BACK ON CAMPUS after trying out for the Puerto Rico Senior National Team earlier this month. Young, who did not make the 2012 team, said he will try to make the 2016 Olympic squad.

Doyle — who once was a Duke fan, but switched allegiances to KU about the time the Jayhawks won the national title with Collins playing a major role in 2008 — has played point guard pretty much all his life. He credited his mom, Lisa, a former Mississippi Valley State player, for “putting me in the gym ... it was out of her job because she works for the park district, so I was always in the gym.”

Young happy to be home: KU senior forward Kevin Young said he enjoyed competing with the likes of J.J. Barea (Minnesota, NBA), Shabazz Na-

In addition, all 18 KU athletic programs scored well above the 925 mark that the NCAA considers to be the cut-off point for good academic standing. That number will be elevated to 930 for the 2012-13 academic year, signifying an even greater emphasis by the NCAA on academic performance.

According to Paul Buskirk, KU’s associate athletic director for student-athlete support, every scholarship athlete in each program can earn two points per semester, one for retention and one for eligibility. Although Buskirk said all of KU’s coaches treat the issue very seriously, he praised Bill Self for making academics a priority for his highly successful hoops team.

“That’s where coach Self has been absolutely amazing in his expectations for the kids,” Buskirk said. “He lays it out very clearly as to what has to happen.”

The obvious question here is why don’t the early departures of guys like Thomas Robinson, Josh Selby and Xavier Henry hurt the Jayhawks’ APR number? The answer is simple, Buskirk said.

“There are three (instances in which) a student can leave the institution and the institution would not be penalized

Aaron Crow and closer Jonathan Broxton combined to allow no hits in the last 1 1-3 innings to complete Kansas City’s seventh shutout this season. Broxton earned his 17th save and is tied for fourth most saves in the American League.

Houston starter Wandy Rodriguez (6-5) yielded six hits and two runs in seven innings.

KU’S APR SCORES AT A GLANCE KU’s APR numbers by program for the last four years (2010-11 number in parentheses) Baseball — 961 (945) Men’s Basketball — 1,000 (1,000) Men’s Cross Country — 994 (984) Football — 971 (994) Men’s Golf — 978 (971) Men’s Track, Indoor — 947 (967) Men’s Track, Outdoor — 942 (934) Women’s Basketball — 982 (932) Women’s Cross Country — 1,000 (1,000) Women’s Rowing — 978 (984) Women’s Golf — 986 (1,000) Softball — 996 (985) Women’s Soccer — 979 (972) Women’s Swimming — 971 (982) Women’s Tennis — 986 (1,000) Women’s Track, Indoor — 963 (961) Women’s Track, Outdoor — 964 (962) Volleyball — 965 (1,000) for that departure,” he said. “Number 1 is if you transfer to another fouryear institution and, when you do, you have a 2.6 GPA. Number 2 is if there’s a documented medical (or) family reason. And then the big one is if a student leaves for a professional sports opportunity.”

In all three instances, the institution is not penalized as long the student-athlete in question would have been eligible had he or she stayed for the next semester.

Asked how Robinson, who is expected to be a top five pick in next week’s NBA Draft, did in that department, Buskirk sat back and smiled.

“I can say generally that Thomas has taken care of

business very nicely,” he said.

Self said that he flat-out tells his NBA prospects they better take care of academics ... or else.

“I make a deal with all my guys. It sounds pretty mean to say. We talk about it every first practice: ‘If you leave out of here and in any way, shape or form put us in position to lose a scholarship, then you’ll never be invited back (to KU), ever,’” Self said “At least as long as I’m here.

If you don’t care enough about yourself you certainly don’t care enough about the place that has been good to you, then you shouldn’t come back.

A lot of schools it’s a problem because kids don’t love the school so much.

Here they love the school

so much, the place has been so good to them, they have an obligation to do that. That’s why we have 1,000 APR. Those kids that leave know they’ve got to finish before they leave. I’d let everybody know (if a player didn’t finish),” Self added forcefully. “Thomas and those guys handled their stuff.

Marcus, Markieff (Morris), Josh (Selby) Xavier (Henry), Cole (Aldrich) ... they all took care of business before the draft.”

As for the school’s other high-profile sport ...

Even though former football coach Turner Gill was fired last November and new coach Charlie Weis cleaned house in terms of players who did not meet his academic standards, it will not be known for another year how Gill’s departure might affect the football program’s APR number.

“Save that question for when we’re sitting here a year from now,” associate AD Jim Marchiony said.

As it stands today, KU football’s multi-year APR score of 971 ranks in the middle of the pack within the department, and its 2010-11 score of 994, which covers Gill’s first year in Lawrence, seems to indicate the football program was in good shape even before Weis came in and raised the bar.

Although both universities and individual coaches are given APR scores, Buskirk said the dismissal of Gill would have no impact on KU’s scores today or in the future.

Braves 4, Yankees 3 NEW YORK — Chipper Jones atoned for a costly error by cutting down the potential tying run at the plate and the Atlanta Braves held on to end the Yankees’ 10-game winning streak, beating New York.

The Yankees were trying to match their longest winning string in nearly a half-century. Instead, the Braves threw out two runners at home and won for only the second time in nine games.

Young food critic doesn’t mince words on school lunches

By Jill Lawless and Raphael Satter Associated Press

LONDON — A 9-year-old blogger won a food fight with authorities in her Scottish town last week, after an online outcry prompted officials to lift a ban on posting photos of her school lunches.

Martha Payne’s images of uninspiring school meals — one consisted of two croquettes, a plain cheeseburger, three slices of cucumber and a lollipop —drew international attention. The blog, set up about six weeks ago as a writing project and to help raise money for a school-meals charity, has drawn more than 2 million hits.

Martha, who lives in the coastal town of Lochgilphead, about 130 miles west of Edinburgh, gave each meal a “food-o-meter” rating, and offered an assessment of its contents.

“

I’d really like to know where the chicken comes from, so I am going to write to the lady in charge to ask. I know it comes from a hen but I’d like to know where the hen lived.”

— Martha Payne, 9, of Lochgilphead, Scotland, critiquing chicken fajitas “I’d really like to know where the chicken comes from,” she wrote in an entry about chicken fajitas, “so I am going to write to the lady in charge to ask. I know it comes from a hen but I’d like to know where the hen lived.”

Local officials weren’t amused, and ordered the schoolgirl to stop taking pictures.

In a statement, Argyll and Bute Council said

Payne’s photos were misleading and had caused distress to cafeteria staff.

The council was particularly irked by a report about the blog in Scotland’s Daily Record newspaper headlined “Fire the Dinner Ladies.”

The council complained of “unwarranted attacks on its schools catering service” and said the blog “misrepresented the options and choices available to pupils.”

As a result, it said, “a decision has been made by the council to stop photos being taken in the school canteen.”

Martha’s father, David Payne, said the blog was never intended to make the food look unappetizing. It includes such positive assessments as “lunch was really nice today and it helped cheer me up.”

“The last photograph of a meal at school that she blogged, she gave it 10 out

Hot wings are great grilled

By Elizabeth Karmel For The Associated Press

Hot wings rarely are made at home because they are associated with deep frying, something most home cooks don’t want to bother with. But truth is, they are so much better grilled. When you grill them, the meat is tender and juicy and the burnished skin is crisp, not flabby.

I have long grilled wings and have a recipe that was dubbed the “world’s best” by my many students who enjoyed them and started making them at home.

The best part is that the recipe is so simple, you hardly need a “recipe.”

In traditional deep-fry chicken wing recipes, the meat is cooked, then tossed with sauce. My recipe keeps that basic approach, but substitutes the grill for the fryer. I also use the hot sauce to marinate the chicken before it is cooked.

I use indirect heat to grill the wings slowly.

This cooks the dark meat nice and slowly, and renders the fat in the skin, leaving a nice crisp wing.

When they are almost done, I take them off the grill and toss them with a mixture of honey and barbecue sauce and put them back on the grill to set the glaze and caramelize.

The end result is a crispy yet slightly sticky wing with an addictively sweet heat that can’t be beat.

Sweet and Sticky Honey Hot Wings No grill handy? These wings also can be cooked on a rimmed baking sheet fitted with a metal rack.

Roast them for 30 minutes at 400 F, then toss them with the barbecue-honey sauce and roast for another 20 to 25 minutes.

Refrigerate until needed.

Divide the bottle of Frank’s hot sauce evenly between the 2 plastic bags.

Add half of the chicken to each bag, then seal the bag and turn to coat evenly.

Refrigerate to marinate for at least 2 hours, or up to overnight.

When ready to cook, heat one side of the grill to medium, the other to low. Remove the barbecue-honey sauce from the refrigerator to warm to room temperature.

Open each bag just at the corner and tip it over the sink to drain the marinade.

Add 2 tablespoons of olive oil and a pinch of salt to each bag, then reseal the bags and shake gently to coat. Using tongs, transfer the chicken to the cooler side of the grill.

Cover the grill and cook for 40 minutes, or until starting to brown. Remove the chicken from the grill and place in a large bowl.

Pour the barbecue-honey sauce over the wings, then use tongs to toss them to coat well.

Place wings back on the grill for another 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from the grill and let rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Put your grill on dessert duty

By Alison Ladman For The Associated Press

For a July Fourth celebration, dessert has got to be easy and easy going.

And since you’re probably making the rest of your meal on the grill anyway, why not use it to prep dessert, too? This dessert pizza is incredibly quick and versatile. Top it with whatever sweet treats you like, or consider making individual ones and having a dessert pizza bar to people can select their own toppings.

Grilled Dessert Pizza Be sure to let the pizza dough rest at room temperature for about 30 minutes before trying to roll it out.

Otherwise, it will be too stiff to work with and will

resist stretching.

Start to finish: 30 minutes Servings: 6 1/4 cup turbinado sugar, divided 16-ounce ball refrigerated pizza dough Canola or vegetable oil 1/2 cup semisweet chocolate bits 1 1/2 cups chopped fresh strawberries 3/4 cup flaked coconut Heat a grill to mediumhigh.

Scatter half of the sugar on a counter top. Place the pizza dough over the sugar and roll out into the sugar. Sprinkle the top of the dough with the remaining sugar, then roll again to press the sugar into the top.

You should have a rough circle about 12 inches in diameter.

Transfer the dough to a baking sheet, then head out to the grill.

Use an oil-soaked paper towel held with tongs to oil the grill grates.

Transfer the pizza dough directly onto the grates.

Cook for 2 to 3 minutes per side, or until cooked and lightly browned.

Return the crust to the baking sheet and immediately sprinkle the chocolate bits over the top. Wait 1 minute to allow the chocolate to melt, then use a butter knife or silicone spatula to spread the melted chocolate evenly over the crust.

Sprinkle with the chopped strawberries and the flaked coconut. Enjoy warm.

of 10,” Payne told the BBC. The ban quickly became an online talking point Friday, with freespeech group the Index on Censorship even weighing in on Payne’s behalf.

Celebrity chef Jamie Oliver tweeted “Stay strong Martha” to his more than 2 million followers.

The Internet storm was quickly followed by an official U-turn. Council leader Roddy McCuish said he had ordered officials to lift the ban on cafeteria photos.

He praised Martha as “an enterprising and imaginative pupil.”

“There is no place for censorship in this council and never will be whilst I am leader,” McCuish said.

Amid the blaze of publicity, donations to Mary’s Meals, the charity the blog had been promoting, climbed from 3,000 pounds ($4,700) to more than 40,000 pounds ($62,000) Friday.

A SCOTTISH LOCAL AUTHORITY last week lifted a ban on 9-year-old blogger Martha Payne, who had been ordered to stop taking photographs of the lunches served up at her school cafeteria.

Local chefs to compete in charity cookoff

By Emily Mulligan Special to the Journal-World

Summer cookouts are regular events around Lawrence, but a summer cook-off only happens once a year.

The third annual River City Cook-Off, a benefit for the Friends of the Kaw, is a chef competition that takes place this Sunday, June 24, at Abe and Jake’s Landing, 8 E. Sixth St. Friends of the Kaw is a nongovernmental advocacy group that aims to help control pollution and act as the “eyes, ears and voice” for the Kansas River, while also making the river more accessible for recreational purposes to all Kansans.

“We want people to know that the Kansas River is the source of drinking water for 600,000 Kansans, so we want people to know why we need to protect and preserve it,” said Laura Calwell, Kansas Riverkeeper and executive director of Friends of the Kaw. Event attendees will be able to learn about the river and Friends of the

Kaw while munching on food concocted by some of the city’s best chefs.

Angel Alvarez from Tortas Jalisco and MexQuisito, Garth Atchison from Wheatfields Bakery & Café, Ken Baker from Pachamama’s, Hilary Brown from Local Burger and Brad Walters from Basil Leaf Café each will prepare two dishes, one with meat and one vegetarian, to vie for the title of River City CookOff Champion.

Attendees can mingle

and try the dishes, while listening to a DJ, then they will vote on which chef’s dish they liked the best.

The chef with the most votes claims the title.

Also this year, Calwell will select her personal favorite dish, and that chef will win the Riverkeeper Selection.

“We want the chefs to be creative; they don’t have to do anything from their menu if they don’t want to,” Calwell said.

“They’re serving samples, but, trust me, you’ll get full.”

Alvarez, who is the chef at both Tortas Jalisco and MexQuisito, is participating in the cook-off for the second time, having been a part of the inaugural event two years ago. He plans to make his restaurants’ popular tacos de papas (potato tacos) and chicken and mole pombazos.

“It’s a good cause. I’m happy to go to the event, because I want everybody to try our food,” he said.

“It would be nice to be recognized as the best; I’ll keep my fingers crossed.”

Calwell says that the

funds raised from this event are crucial to Friends of the Kaw because the money supports advocacy efforts that grants do not cover, such as patrolling the river for pollution and reaching out to local communities to encourage them to install access ramps to the river.

To date, Friends of the Kaw has helped put in 10 access ramps in places such as Wamego, Eudora, Junction City, Topeka, De Soto and Lawrence.

“We’re not going to rest until we get one every 10 miles. Right now, between Wamego and Topeka, it is 40 miles between access ramps,” she said.

Calwell says that the organization’s efforts to construct access ramps even have been recognized by the federal government.

“We are being considered as a National Water Trail by the Department of the Interior of the U.S. government. That would be wonderful for the Kansas River,” she said.

That is not small potatoes, no matter how they are cooked.

Grilled chicken salad lightens up

By Alison Ladman For The Associated Press

Like many summer favorites, chicken salad has all the makings of a refreshing, light meal ... except for all that mayonnaise.

An easy way to lighten it up is to switch it out for our favorite creamy substitute, nonfat plain Greek yogurt.

We also opted to grill the chicken, an easy way to pump up the flavor while adding virtually no fat.

For this recipe, we freshened up our salad by adding some berbere, an Ethiopian spice blend that can feature any number of seasonings, but often includes ginger, cardamom, garlic, cumin and chilies.

If you can’t find it or you prefer something a little more tame, switch it out for another spice blend, such as curry powder or Italian seasoning.

For even more flavor and some textural contrast, we added chopped Peppadew peppers. You usually can find these alongside the olives at the grocer. Cherry peppers also would work. After some chopped fennel bulb, a handful of toasted almonds and some grapes, we were finished.

We like to serve this salad stuffed in wholewheat pita pockets with salad greens, but you also could spoon it over a bed of greens for a hearty salad.

For The Associated Press

Whether you prefer your tacos hard and crunchy or lean more to the softer side, this grilled shrimp filling perfect for a summer barbecue will leave you satisfied.

Shrimp cook quickly, especially on the intense heat of the grill, so be sure to prep your other ingredients ahead of time and set out a buffet of toppings and tortillas. Then just toss the shrimp on the grill and in minutes you’ll be enjoying summer just a little bit more.

Piña Colada Cupcakes 1 white cake mix 1/3 cup rum 3 eggs 1 can light coconut milk Beat all these ingredients together, and fill cupcake liners 2/3 full. Bake according to box directions. Cool thoroughly before frosting.

Piña Colada Buttercream Frosting 1 cup light butter 4 cups confectioner’s sugar 1 tablespoon rum 1 teaspoon vanilla 2 cups sweetened coconut (to sprinkle on top) Beat together and refrigerate for at least half an hour before frosting cupcakes.

I didn’t use a fancy frosting tip for this. I just put the frosting in a ziplock bag and cut the corner off. I piped a thick “doughnut” of frosting onto the top of each cupcake and then with a butter knife that I dipped in warm water, I smoothed it down a little to make kind of a swirl effect.

Then I toasted the coconut. Just pop it in a skillet over medium high heat and push it around with a spatula until it’s just lightly browned.

Sprinkle it on top of the cupcakes and there you have it — a simple treat that is irresistibly fancylooking. No oil in the cake, and light butter — you can almost feel good about eating it. Almost.

Return it to the freezer for at least an hour, preferably two, to harden.

In the meantime, make your peanut butter layer.

In a mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter, confectioner’s sugar, milk, and broken up cookies. Beat until smooth and spreadable.

Add more milk if necessary to get it to the desired consistency. It should be thick (not runny) but spreadable.

Use a spatula to spread it over the refrozen Fro-Yo, then top with chocolate drizzle and broken up Hershey’s pieces (or peanut butter cups). To quote the great Ina Garten, “How easy is that?”

Both of these are perfect summer desserts. Try them out for your next outdoor party. Wow your guests, and chuckle to yourself about how simple it all was.

No one will be the wiser.

cutting edge New cuts of beef are flavorful, economical

By Michelle Locke For the Associated Press

Looking for something new to throw on the grill this Fourth of July? How about a sizzling Denver cut or a couple of juicy slices of teres major?

Never heard of them? You will. They’re lesser-known — and less-expensive — cuts of beef that have become more popular as tough economic times have led butchers to look for tenderness at a lower price than the classic ribeyes and tenderloins.

“I call them the cuts of our ancestors,” says Pat LaFrieda, a third-generation butcher who appears with his father on the Food Network show “Meat Men.” ‘‘All the cuts that I remember eating as a kid with my grandfather, those are the cuts that I see restaurants asking for again; it fits into their price schedule.”

Running Pat LaFrieda Meat Purveyors, LaFrieda, his dad Pat Sr., and cousin Mark Pas-

tore supply more than 500 customers, including some of the top restaurants and bistros in New York City, which gives him a heads up on culinary trends. “What they’re asking for today, I know I’ll start seeing in butcher shops six months from now.”

Want to know what kinds of meat you’re likely to meet over the next few months?

Here’s a rundown from LaFrieda and other butchering enthusiasts.

Chuck roll steak This is one of LaFrieda’s favorite cuts of beef. “I have more and more people asking me for that than I ever have.”

This is one of the newer cuts that is being separated out from the more common chuck roll, which usually is sold as the boneless chuck roast. He prepares chuck roll steaks much as he would a ribeye, with a short marinade, salt and pepper, and a simple grilling.

Teres major This is an unfamiliar name for most of us, but it’s quite familiar to chefs. It’s a little-used muscle in the cow’s shoulder. It is second in tenderness only to the tenderloin, but up to half the price, depending on the supplier.

Charlie Palmer, a leader in the chef-turned-butcher movement, has been featuring teres major steaks at his District Meats in Denver and Burritt Tavern in San Francisco.

“It’s just as tender as filet mignon, but half the price.

And our guests like to say the name!” he says.

He serves it with torpedo onion confit, which is similar to a scallion but has a bronze-y red bulb at the base and a mild flavor. For the meat, he recommends keeping it simple. Cook on a hot grill until medium rare, let it rest, then slice into medallions.

Denver cut Kari Underly, a third-generation butcher and author of “The Art of Beef Cutting,” was part of the team that developed the Denver cut and flat iron steak for the beef industry. Profiling muscles and analyzing cuts like chuck and round is irresistible to “a meat geek like me,” says Underly, who likes to “dig through the data and find the little gems.”

The Denver cut is found in a part of the cow typically sold as chuck roast, but when cut separately it is the fourth most tender muscle, Underly says.

For the Denver cut, she recommends having it sliced about three-quarters of an inch thick. After that, try a lightly flavored marinade or a rub; the meat doesn’t really need to be tenderized, just flavored. Then grill, possibly throwing some baby bok choy on the grill with it to balance the protein.

Introductory recipes To help get you grilling with some of the latest cuts of beef, The Associated Press created recipes for three meats on the cutting edge.

Teres Major With Cilantro Cashew Pesto Start to finish: 45 minutes Servings: 4 1 bunch fresh cilantro, stems and leaves 2 tablespoons olive oil 2 tablespoons water 1/4 cup toasted cashews (pieces are fine) 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese Salt and ground black pepper Please see BEEF, page 7B

With desserts, simplicity is sweetest

I

try, every year, to invent a special cupcake for my friend Trina’s birthday.

She’s an amazing friend and does so much for us, the least I can do it toast her on her birthday with a special morsel. Trina is our son’s personal photographer. She does amazing work at a super-good price.

I can’t thank her enough for documenting our precious memories, because I am a lame photographer and can’t do it.

Her birthday falls near Father’s Day, so usually it works out to combine both celebrations, and it’s an excuse for me to make not one but two desserts, since my husband isn’t really a cupcake kind of

Dear Annie: I am 47 years old, and my mother is 80. I have three grown children and a 7-year-old daughter whose father is not in her life, nor does he pay child support, even though he earns a decent income. I recently have had some personal setbacks. My hours were cut at work, and I had to move out of our apartment because I could not afford the rent.

I called my mother and asked her for financial help. She said no because it would mean losing “her family.” I was shocked. I thought I was her family, but apparently not. I am the youngest of four siblings. My father left when I was in my teens, and I quit school in order to get a job. I gave Mom all of my paychecks so she wouldn’t lose the house.

I was the only one left at home to keep Mom company, drive her everywhere, be her confidante

and help her out. I know my mother does not owe me a living, but all I’m asking for is help until I get back on my feet.

My perfectly capable mother gave my older sister control of her finances and says any assistance has to go through “Ellen.” I refuse to ask Ellen whether I can borrow money from my own mother. My siblings just had a surprise birthday for Mom and didn’t tell me. When I asked Ellen why I wasn’t invited, she said I wasn’t acting like a proper daughter.

New sitcom, old storyline “Baby Daddy” (7:30 p.m., ABC Family) dusts off the premise of “Three Men and a Baby.” For the record, that was a 1987 Hollywood movie based on a 1985 French comedy. How many remakes does “Daddy” make?

The three men are regular dude Ben (Jean-Luc Bilodeau), a bartender; his finicky best friend, Tucker (Tahj Mowry); and his brother, Danny (Derek Theler), a handsome professional hockey player. Their bachelor life shenanigans are complicated, but not terminated, when a mysterious ex-girlfriend leaves a baby on Ben’s doorstep.

For reasons known only to sitcom writers, Ben’s good friend, Riley (Chelsea Kane), an attractive lawyer, puts her entire life on hold to help out with the child.

Could it be that she used to be a fat kid and harbors insecurities and a secret crush on Ben? I’ll never say.

Ben and Danny’s mom (Melissa Peterman) loudly arrives on the scene to announce her joy and horror at being an instant grandmother. She’s so consumed with her new status that she doesn’t much care about the identity of the baby’s mother, or whatever drove her to become the catalyst for this formulaic yuck-fest.

Cedric the Entertainer stars on “The Soul Man” (9 p.m., TV Land) as the Rev. Boyce Ballentine, an R&B singer-turned-minister who moves his wife (Niecy Nash) and family to St. Louis to take over his father’s modest church. Raised amid the splendor and temptation of the music industry, Boyce’s children have some serious adjusting to do.

The first installment of “School Spirits” (9 p.m., Syfy) offers a documentary-style look at a haunted University of Michigan sorority house filled with fetching and frightened females.

Every week brings a new, bloodcurdling college tour!

Tonight’s other highlights

Callbacks on “So You Think You Can Dance” (7 p.m., Fox).

Three cases show similar symptoms on “Royal Pains” (8 p.m., USA).

“Futurama” (9 p.m., Comedy Central) enters a new season.

A draft pick needs his head examined on “Necessary Roughness” (9 p.m., USA).

“Through the Wormhole With Morgan Freeman” (9 p.m., Science) ponders “What Makes Us Who We Are.”

“Hitler’s Pawn” (9 p.m., HBO) recalls a Jewish athlete trained to compete for Germany in the 1936 Olympic games.

“The Exes” (9:30 p.m., TV Land) enters its second season.

I love my mom, but it feels as if she does not care about me. I am trying to relocate and forget all of them. Still, when my mother needs a sympathetic ear, she calls me multiple times a day. Should I simply cut all ties and not speak to her anymore? — Middle-Aged and Underemployed in the Midwest Dear Middle-Aged: You are obviously hurt by your family’s treatment, and we cannot explain why they are so unkind.

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS

For Wednesday, June 20: This year you will go from being an excellent communicator to a more taciturn, reflective person. If you are single, you could meet a lifelong friend or even a partner during the later part of your birthday year. If you are attached, the two of you will interact with each other better than ever if you spend quality time together.

The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult Aries (March 21-April 19) Use the morning for handling important messages, errands and communication in general. You need to respond to certain situations. Tonight: Head home.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) Be sure to make calls regarding your finances and/or a potential purchase first thing in the morning. You will have to weigh the pros and cons in your mind. Tonight: Speak your mind. Listen and evaluate.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) You might not feel as energetic as you would like. A friend continues to cause uproar despite all your attempts to try to project a semblance of calm. Tonight: Stop and get a token of appreciation for a loved one or friend.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) You sense a new opportunity on the horizon. You have many ideas and, with your charisma peaking, you’ll decide to take the chance to present some of them.

Tonight: It is your call.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) Information or news that sounds bad really is not that awful.

Stay open-minded, and you will see.

jacquelinebigar.com

Tonight: Vanish while you can.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Others look to you for solutions and ideas. Focus first on certain high priority matters for yourself.

Tonight: Where the gang is.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) News filters through no matter what you do. Stop keeping a secret hush-hush. Tonight: Tune in to an authority figure.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Keep asking questions until you understand where someone else is coming from. You might want to step back and consider how very different you are, at least in your thought process. Tonight: Let your imagination wander.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You might feel, or even believe, that others are trying to gain control. That may be so, but the only way to win a control game is not to play. Tonight: Togetherness works.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Others tend to be unusually challenging. Let them have their way rather than explain what you see to be the problem. Tonight: Enjoy whomever you are with.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Plunge into whatever project seems like a high priority. Know that you can get it done despite any uproar that surrounds you. Tonight: Off to the gym.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) You are on a creative roll at present. You might wonder which path is best, but inevitably you’ll head down the one you are most interested in. Tonight: Act as if it is the weekend.

ing “Frank.” She seems very happy with him.

I found out that Frank posted on his Facebook page something that implies the two of them had sex in a van in a parking lot late at night. Frank still lives with his parents, so I assume this posting could be true. My friend is the type who is very concerned about her reputation. Should I tell her what I saw? — Shocked Friend Dear Friend: We assume if you can see Frank’s Facebook page, your friend can, as well, and probably has. (It is unlikely he would block her access but not yours.)

What she does with her boyfriend is her own business, and if she objects to the posting, she will tell him. We think you should stay out of it. ACROSS — Send questions to anniesmailbox@comcast.net, or Annie’s Mailbox, P.O. Box 118190 Chicago, IL 60611.
