Plan would allow homeless shelter to relocate

By Joe Preiner jpreiner@ljworld.com

Douglas County leaders plan to acquire land that will house a consolidated Public Works complex and also allow the downtown homeless shelter to relocate.

Weinaug

The property included in the county’s plan covers 34 acres east of Douglas County Jail, 3601 E. 25th St. County Administrator Craig Weinaug has worked on the plan with the support of county commissioners.

“One project allows another,

serendipitously, to move forward,” Commissioner Nancy Thellman said Tuesday.

Shelter relocation The other project is the relocation of the Lawrence Community Shelter. The acquisition of the property will make Douglas

County the majority land owner covered by the Declaration of Protective Covenants. That committee recently ruled that the convenants on the property prohibited a homeless shelter on the site. Legal efforts by the homeless shelter to have that decision reversed weren’t suc-

cessful, throwing the shelter’s relocation plans into disarray.

With the county in control, the members of the Covenant’s Board of Trustees would be asked to resign. County commissioners would then appoint Please see SHELTER, page 2A

Mass. St. Dillons remodel approved by commission

By Chad Lawhorn clawhorn@ljworld.com

It was like it was Triple Coupon Day. There were smiles all around at Lawrence City Hall on Tuesday night as city commissioners unanimously gave final approval for Dillons to replace its existing grocery on south Massachusetts Street with a larger, more modern store.

“Dillons really went out of its way to help put the neighborhood at ease and make a lot of accommodations,” said Mayor Aron Cromwell, who lives a couple of blocks from the store at 1740 Mass.

“This is going to be a real signature building for

the whole neighborhood.”

Tuesday’s approval clears the way for the project to receive a building permit, but Dillons officials weren’t yet ready to put a firm timeline on when construction would begin, which will require the existing store to be closed and razed.

Company officials said it could be another two months before work is ready to begin at the site.

“But I can tell you we have contractors looking at the project right now,” said Lynn Howitz, construction manager for the project.

Company officials did confirm that work has Please see DILLONS, page 2A

County asks for reversal of SRS shutdown; agency says Topeka is an option for staff

The green and easy guide to moving

By Christine Metz cmetz@ljworld.com

No one likes to move. But we shouldn’t make the earth suffer with us. On July 31, many Lawrence residents will be relocating. To help ease the pain on you and the environment, here are tips on keeping the move cheap, easy and green.

Think outside the new box Try to find a way around having to buy newly manufactured boxes.

Kathy Richardson, the city’s waste reduction and recycling operations supervisor, recommends contacting grocery stores, retail outlets or businesses to see if they have spare boxes. If that doesn’t work, check out Craigslist.org, an online site that has posts from people looking to pass along boxes. Also, be on the lookout for neighbors, coworkers or friends who might be moving shortly before you. Ask to use their boxes when they are done.

Regional director: Earlier memo had ‘misinformation’

By Scott Rothschild srothschild@ljworld.com

If no spare boxes can be found, consider buying ones made of recycled materials or boxes that are “reused.”

Among the companies that offer such products is UsedCardboardBoxes.com. U-

TOPEKA — Douglas County commissioners have asked Gov. Sam Brownback to reject the planned closure of the Kansas Department of Social and Rehabilitation Services office in Lawrence, saying shutting it down will cost county taxpayers more than the state will save and result in the loss of services to vulnerable people.

And in another development related to the shutdown, SRS said Brownback Tuesday that employees at the Lawrence SRS office can apply to transfer to the Topeka office. That’s contrary to a memo the department had sent out earlier.

On Monday, the Lawrence JournalWorld obtained an SRS memo by Jason Haney, interim director of programs for

... it will cost the taxpayers of Douglas County more tax dollars than the state is saving. And even with best efforts, there will be critical losses in services that we cannot fill locally.”

— Letter from Douglas County commissioners to Kansas Gov. Sam Brownback the Kansas City Metro Region of SRS, that said Lawrence SRS office employees would not be able to transfer to the Topeka office.

But Tuesday, SRS Kansas City Metro Regional Director Phyllis Gilmore said that earlier memo contained misinformation. “The Topeka office has always been and remains an option for Lawrence staff to transfer to. I apologize for the confusion.”

LEADERS AT THE LAWRENCE COMMUNITY SHELTER are once again looking at a vacant warehouse building at 3701 E. 25th Street. A deal by the county to purchase the property adjacent to the warehouse has reopened the possibility for the relocation efforts of the shelter.

new members to the board, Weinaug said.

“Given what the interests of the county are, we have reason to believe that the people who would be appointed to that would look upon that favorably,” Weinaug said of the homeless shelter relocation.

Weinaug said the homeless shelter would still need to purchase the land for which it holds a conditional-use permit. While Weinaug said the property owners were willing sellers, the decision rests with those parties.

Shelter director Loring Henderson said he would discuss with his board soon whether to restart negotiations to purchase the building from a local group led by Lawrence businessman Tim Keller.

“We are extraordinarily appreciative of what the county has done,” Henderson said. “They have been generous and supportive and creative to help resolve a situation that really is a communitywide issue. This is a community issue and they have taken a community position.”

Land acquisitions The county would fund the purchase with state gas tax reimbursements, which total just below the $1.196 million purchasing price for the county property.

Lawrence businessman Steve Glass — who heads the ownership group of the property — confirmed that he’s reached a deal in principle with the county on the 34acre site. But Glass, who has vigorously opposed efforts to locate a homeless shelter near his property, declined to comment further on the deal.

The county also is offering to purchase the property of two additional landowners near the proposed homeless shelter site. Additional funding for the acquisition of adjacent property — including Taylor Property and Printing Solutions Property, which includes Hillcrest Wrecker — would come from the county’s budgeted funds for capital improvement. The county will offer to purchase the additional land at its 2011 county-appraised values of $572,720 and $250,000, respectively.

Jerry Taylor — an owner of Hillcrest Wrecker, which is just across the street from the proposed homeless shelter site — said he hasn’t made any decisions about whether he’ll accept the county’s offer.

He said he still has concerns about whether a homeless shelter will be disruptive to the business park.

“But I think the county is treating us fair,” Taylor said.

“At least I feel like we have options now. Before I didn’t feel like I had any.”

Building not imminent Regardless of whether the two additional properties are purchased, the sale of the future Public Works property and control of the covenants would shift to the county.

From there, the timeline for building a Public Works facility is unknown.

“We have no immediate plans to build a Public Works facility next month or even next year,” Weinaug said. “We will be working toward planning that facility and determining when we’d be building one.”

The shelter’s timeline is not as lenient because of grant deadlines that expire this fall. Weinaug said there is an urgency for the shelter to move forward.

“It gives them a way to make the (conditional-use permit) usable,” he said. “It provides a means for resolving this community issue that has been a struggle for this community for the past three years or so.”

The Community Shelter is now at 10th and Kentucky streets. The shelter’s city permit to operate at the location, which has drawn complaints from neighbors, expires in April. Henderson said even if a deal is struck to buy the building at Franklin Park Circle, he is uncertain that the shelter could be moved into the new facility

by April.

“But we understand that when April comes we have to be able to tell the community where we are going,” Henderson said.

packing peanuts. Also, don’t let suitcases or laundry baskets move unfilled.

When you’re f inishing unpacking, see if there are others who could use your boxes, or save them if the next move isn’t too far off. At the very least, be sure to recycle the cardboard boxes when you are done.

Sell, donate or give away Purging goes hand in hand with moving. Many of the items we no longer want can find second homes in places all over Lawrence.

If you are inclined to make a little money and have some extra time, hold a yard sale.

You’d be surprised at what people would be willing to pay for.

If you only have a couple of items to sell or give away, post them on Craigslist.org, FreeCycle.org or the Lawrence Journal-World’s classified ad section.

If you don’t want the hassle of selling the items, consider donating them to local charities, who will take everything from clothing to old bookcases. We’ve created a quick cheat sheet online at SunflowerHorizons.com, where your unused items in Lawrence can go to a good cause.

If you don’t have the means of transporting the items, some nonprofits, such as Lawrence Habitat for Humanity ReStore, will come to you.

The Lawrence office has 87 employees.

When asked if Lawrence cases could be transferred to Topeka, SRS spokeswoman Angela de Rocha said, “No decisions have been made.

This is still undergoing review.”

In the letter to Brownback, the Douglas County Commission said the planned closure would have a negative impact on the community.

“There are a number of crucial SRS services upon which our residents depend that will be diminished and it will be impossible for any other agency to fill the gap,” the letter signed by Commission Chairman Jim Flory said.

furniture and building supplies. The ReStore doesn’t take soft furniture such as couches or mattresses and most small appliances. Items such as shelves, mirrors, lamps, chairs and desks are great donations to make. To schedule a pickup, call 8566920.

As a last resort, consider setting the unwanted items out on the lawn, slightly away from the trash and with a “For Free” sign. This time of year, it’s common to see folks on the prowl for leftover moving items. Don’t forget to label the item as free, because it’s against city code to rummage through someone else’s trash.

If you have to toss, make sure it goes to the right place For most of us, moving means having to confront all those demons in the garage or attic, such as half-empty paint cans, used motor oil and pesticides and herbicides. These items don’t belong in landfills and need to go to the city’s hazardous waste facility. To make an appointment to drop the items off, call 832-3030.

If you’ve got couches, beds or appliances that you think no one would want even if you gave it away, call the Solid Waste Division to pick them up. The number is 832-3032.

And, once you are done moving, make sure to recycle all the leftover packaging such as cardboard boxes, plastic bags and newspapers.

There are several recycling locations throughout the city.

You can find a list of them on the city’s website at lawrenceks.org/wrr/ residentialrecycling1.

Remember you can recycle a lot more than paper, plastic and glass. The city’s list includes places you can take old batteries, computers,

testimony from approximately 20 Lawrence agencies and governmental entities about their increased costs should the SRS office be shut down.

Brownback and SRS Secretary Robert Siedlecki Jr. have said the state needs to close nine offices, including the one in Lawrence, to save about $1 million in administrative costs. The Lawrence off ice savings has been tabbed at $400,000, according to SRS. Brownback and Siedlecki have said SRS services can be accessed online or by traveling to offices in nearby cities, such as Topeka, Overland Park, Kansas City or Ottawa.

But nonprofit social service agencies have said this will greatly increase their costs in helping people get to those offices, and many folks will simply lose assistance because it will be too difficult to reach those offices.

“

I think we’re really going to change the environment down there.”

— Brian Folmer, director of real estate for Dillons, on the improvements to the grocery store at 1740 Mass.

Among the improvements will be: ● A store that is about 10,000 square feet larger than the current facility, meaning wider aisles and a more open design; ● A Starbucks coffee shop, a sandwich grill, a Chinese deli, a sushi bar and an outdoor dining area along Massachusetts Street; ● A dedicated organic foods section. ● An expanded pharmacy with a drive-thru lane. The drive-thru lane will be off of New Hampshire Street.

The store also will look different on the site. The main entrance of the store will face north instead of facing west toward Massachusetts like

Plan ahead Giving yourself a couple of weeks to collect boxes, drop off hazardous wastes or hold a yard sale will make it easier to keep your sanity and the earth a better place while moving. Many of the donation and dropoff locations aren’t open — or they close earlier on the weekends — when most people move.

And, some places have a limit on how much you can drop off, which means you’ll have to come back a second day to unload all your stuff.

“I think sometimes we overwhelm ourselves when we leave it all for the last day.

It is a little harder to get out to the thrift stores and run all the errands,” Richardson said.

Use earth-friendly cleaning supplies Perhaps everyone’s least favorite thing about moving is the scrubbing and washing that has to occur before you turn in the keys. This time around consider using cleaning products that are better for you and for the environment. Many of the items you need to clean are already in your kitchen.

Try some of these: ● Baking soda and kosher salt are great for scrubbing away stains and grime. ● Olive oil can be used for dusting. ● Club soda works great on carpet stains. ● Both vinegar and lemon juice act as natural cleaners.

For more information on natural cleaners, check out a story we wrote this spring at SunflowerHorizons.com.

— Reporter Christine Metz can be reached at 832-6352.

“There are no public transit services that go from Lawrence to the alternative SRS offices,” the letter said.

“A large percentage of Douglas County SRS clients do not have access to a car.”

The letter states that a round-trip taxi trip to the Topeka SRS off ice from Lawrence costs $128. That trip is even more expensive to other towns.

“That is the reality facing more than 10,000 people who will now have to consider how to reach the office where their caseworker has been transferred,” the letter said.

The letter concluded, “ ... it will cost the taxpayers of Douglas County more tax dollars than the state is saving. And even with best efforts, there will be critical losses in services that we cannot fill locally.”

the current facility. The project also received variances that will allow the two sides of the building to be constructed nearly to the edge of Massachusetts and Vermont street, giving the project more of a downtown feel.

Several of the design issues — especially the lack of setbacks and the pharmacy drive thru off of New Hampshire Street — created concerns for the nearby Barker neighborhood.

But Dillons made several design changes to the project, including prohibiting vehicles from exiting onto New Hampshire Street. On Tuesday, no one from the public spoke in opposition to the project.

“City staff and everybody involved really did an excellent job of making sure that the facility will be top notch for the residents and for our customers,” Folmer said. “We really think it is going to be a flagship store for us.”

Men guilty of meth trafficking, counterfeiting

Police slammed for slow response

By George Diepenbrock

When Anders Behring Breivik launched his assault on the youth campers of Utoya Island, he expected Norway’s special forces to swoop down and stop him at any minute.

Instead, Delta Force police officers made the 25mile journey by car — they have no helicopter — then had to be rescued by a civilian craft when their boat broke down as it tried to navigate a one-minute hop to the island.

It took police more than 90 minutes to reach the gunman, who by then had mortally wounded 68 people. Breivik immediately dropped his guns and surrendered, having exceeded his wildest murderous expectations.

As Oslo’s police force sounds an increasingly defensive note, international experts said Tuesday that Norway’s government and security forces must learn stark lessons from a massacre made worse by a lackadaisical approach to planning for terror.

A federal jury Monday convicted two Lawrence men on charges of conspiracy to counterfeit money and drug trafficking in connection with a 2010 raid east of Lawrence.

U.S. Attorney Barry Grissom said a Kansas City, Kan., jury convicted Don Milton Steele, 52, of six total counts including possession with intent to distribute more than 50 grams of methamphetamine. Jurors also convicted Randy J. Dyke, 51, of six counts.

According to Grissom’s office, prosecutors presented evidence that Steele in 2009 developed a plan to pay for a large shipment

of marijuana with counterfeit money and that he and Dyke set up a house he owned in Topeka for the counterfeiting.

Steele provided stolen checkbooks, identification documents and credit cards. The checks were used to purchase equipment for the operations, and in February 2010 Dyke passed what

he believed to be one of the counterfeit bills at Harper Corner Liquor, 2200 Harper St. Prosecutors said that month Steele directed Dyke and another man to retrieve $10,000 in counterfeit money and more than 50 grams of methamphetamine that Steele and Dyke had conspired to have manufactured from the Topeka house.

Also that month authorities raided Steele’s residence, 1706 N. 1500 Road. The property was also home to All Seasons Tree Service, a business Steele owned. After the raid, Steele’s family sold the property, which contained a house, as well as dozens of old cars and trucks.

Three other people in connec-

tion with the case have pleaded guilty. Robert D. Billinger, 35, of Missouri, pleaded guilty to a conspiracy charge in June, and Anthony Wayne Sims, of Lawrence, pleaded guilty to the same conspiracy count last October. Kimberly M. Cline, 44, of Lawrence, pleaded guilty to fraud in June in connection with the case.

In pretrial motions, defense attorneys for Steele and Dyke had claimed an undercover officer, not their clients, came up with the plan to manufacture methamphetamine.

Steele and Dyke are scheduled to be sentenced Nov. 14.

Aid workers rush to help hungry Seven-month-old Mihag Gedi Farah is the frail face of famine in the Horn of Africa. He stares out wideeyed almost in alarm, his skin pulled taut over his ribs and twig-like arms.

At only 7 pounds, he weighs as much as a newborn but has the weathered look of an elderly man.

Mihag is just one of 800,000 children who officials warn could die across the region. Aid workers are rushing to bring help to dangerous and previously unreached regions of drought-ravaged Somalia.

Famine victims like Mihag bring new urgency to their efforts, raising concerns about how many hungry children still remain in Somalia, far away from the feeding tubes and doctors in the field hospital at this Kenyan refugee camp.

The United Nations estimates that more than 11 million people in East Africa are affected by the drought, with 3.7 million in Somalia among the worst-hit because of the ongoing civil war in the country.

Teachers in the Lawrence school district are moving closer to getting pay raises for the coming school year as they continue to seek improvements in healthinsurance coverage or compensation.

Negotiators for the Lawrence school district and the teachers’ union, the Lawrence Education Association, plan to meet at 5:30 p.m. Thursday to continue work on a master agreement for the 2011-12 school year.

The two sides already have reached tentative settlements on a number of monetary and operational SCHOOLS issues, including the biggest one of all: combined pay raises of $1,250 for each of the district’s 926 licensed educators. Educators would get $250 added to their base salaries, then another $1,000 one-time payment just before Christmas.

“People feel pretty good about the progress being made,” said Rick Ingram, after he and fellow board members met behind closed doors Monday night to discuss ongoing negotiations.

Two topics remain points of contention, and remain to be settled: fringe benefits and teacher evaluations.

“We’re still negotiating,” said Deena Burnett, the union’s president.

Both sides have clashed over the cost of fringe benefits, particularly health insurance. The Please see DEAL, page 5A

Arts center receives grant to keep preschoolers active Little tykes at the Lawrence Arts Center will be getting plenty of exercise this coming school year, and they probably won’t even realize it.

That’s because it will come in the form of fun — like dancing, acting or marching to music.

To help fund such activities, the early childhood program at

• A Tuesday morning fire in an apartment southwest of Clinton Parkway and Crestline Drive has displaced one person, a Lawrence-Douglas County Fire Medical spokeswoman said.

Firefighters were called to the fire at 8:42 a.m. Tuesday at 2411 W. 24th Terrace, southwest of Clinton Parkway and Crestline Drive, and crews declared the fire under control at 9:08 a.m. said Division Chief Eve Tolefree.

When they arrived, crews reported smoke showing from the rear of the residence, which firefighters classified as a fourplex. Fire Marshal James King said earlier Tuesday the fire started in a second-floor bathroom where a contractor was working.

Tolefree said firefighters assisted two occupants from the residence. Medics treated a contractor at the scene for minor abrasions, and no firefighters were injured, she said.

announced the closure of nine agency offices, including the one in Lawrence.

Valentine, an 11-year veteran of SRS who has worked under Republican and Democratic administrations and has been a part of SRS administrative cost-cutting, says he was stunned by the decision to close the Lawrence office.

“I was shocked that Lawrence was chosen because it is so large,” he said.

Brownback and Siedlecki have said the office closures are needed to comply with a legislative mandate to reduce SRS administrative costs by $1 million. They have said people served by the Lawrence office will be able to access services online or travel to nearby cities, such as Topeka or Overland Park.

But local advocates and law enforcement say this approach isn’t reasonable and will result in many people losing needed assistance, increasing costs on nonprofit organizations, and more crime.

And some legislators have said Siedlecki misread the Legislature’s intent and wanted cuts in administrative expenses, such as salaries, instead of shutting down offices.

Valentine also said the Brownback administration has gone much further in removing veteran SRS workers than previous administrations.

Typically in a change of administration, Cabinet-level secretaries and some top agency chiefs will change, he said.

“You just don’t see it going to the levels that it is going,” said Valentine, who said he is registered as a Republican.

He said there have been approximately 30 people that he knows of who have been forced out at SRS.

The formerly unclaimed cremains of McCarthy and 13 other veterans were buried with military honors Tuesday at Fort Leavenworth National Cemetery.

Missing veterans get proper burials

By Melissa Treolo mtreolo@theworldco.info

Sun Rodgers of Leavenworth and Betty Wright of Shawnee cried and clung together during Tuesday’s funeral service at Fort Leavenworth National Cemetery.

The two Gold Star Mothers didn’t know the 14 veterans and three veterans’ wives who were buried in a military funeral organized by the Missing in America Project, but they said the experience was still an emotional one.

It brought fresh to mind the sons they had lost — Rodgers’ son, Sgt. Ricky Rodgers, to an illness in 2005 while stationed at Fort Polk, La.; and Wright’s son, Pvt. Shawn Wright, to suicide in 1991 while home on leave.

Shortly following their deaths, Ricky Rodgers and Shawn Wright received appropriate burials with military honors. The honors bestowed on the 14 veterans buried Tuesday, however, were long overdue.

Pvt. George McCarthy served in the Civil War and died in 1946 at the age of 102.

He was cremated, and his ashes sat unclaimed in the storage of Missouri-based funeral home D.W. Newcomer’s Sons for more than 60 years. The cremains of the 13 other veterans, all of whom served in World War I, suffered a similar fate, having no one to claim them for decades.

Finally, the Missing in America Project stepped in.

The national nonprof it organization works closely with funeral homes to validate and give proper burial services to the veterans left unclaimed by family members.

Unclaimed cremains Linda Smith, head of operations for the organization, says any given funeral home in the United States could have anywhere from 10 to 1,000 sets of cremains of veterans in its storage.

Usually state laws dictate that funeral homes must hold onto unclaimed crem a i n s u n t i l t h ey a re claimed, Smith said. It is the Missing In America Project’s goal to claim and valid a te a s m a ny o f t h e s e unclaimed veterans as possible, making sure each and every one is buried, with appropriate military honors, in a national cemetery.

But it’s not an easy goal to achieve. Smith said it took about a year for the Missing in America Project to go through the process of proving the 14 veterans buried Tuesday at Fort Leavenworth were, in fact, veterans. She said funeral homes give Missing in America lists of those among their store of unclaimed cremains they believe to be veterans, and then Missing in Americ a re s e a rc h e rs m u s t go through whatever paper trail is available to prove their identities. Missing in America also works to validate the unclaimed cremains of family members of veterans.

Thus far, she said, the organization has been responsible for the burials of more than 1,000 formerly unclaimed veterans. Of those, McCarthy was only the second veteran to have served in the Civil War. Smith said all of those

WWI VETERANS The following are the list of World War I veterans and wives buried Tuesday: ● Lt. Col. Ernest Mark and wife, Frances Mark; both discovered dead of poisoning by daughter on June 1, 1937 ● Maj. Albert Payne Duval; died in 1959 ● 1st Lt. Charles Shumaker and wife, Alvira Shumaker; Charles Shumaker died in 1943; no date of death listed for wife ● Sgt. 1st Class James McDonald; died in 1951 ● Sgt. Roy Robbins; died in 1952 ● Sgt. William Kinney; died in 1932 ● Pvt. John Carpenter and wife, Marnodie Carpenter; John Carpenter died in 1967; no date of death listed for wife ● Pvt. Cyrus Dorr; killed in action in 1918 ● Pvt. John McFadyean; died in 1941 ● Pvt. Ralph Lowe; died in 1960 ● Pvt. Ralph Wilson; died in 1952 ● Pvt. John Lawing; died in 1957 ● Pvt. Jerome Joffee; died in 1953.

buried Tuesday came from D.W. Newcomer’s Sons, which operates several funeral homes throughout the Kansas City metro area.

Ceremony The mood during Tuesday’s ceremony was somber and respectful, as honors were f irst bestowed on McCarthy, followed by the 13 World War I veterans and three wives.

Posting of the U.S. National Colors was conducted by members of the Kansas National Guard. Civil War re-enactors then carried McCarthy’s urn to the honors table, where military honors were performed by members of the Kansas National Guard who slowly and methodically unfolded and re-folded the flag. A gun salute was performed and “Taps” was played by Samuel Young, one of the re-enactors.

The re-enactors then transported McCarthy’s urn to the selected gravesite.

A separate, but similar, ceremony for the World War I veterans followed and included words from guest speakers retired Lt. Gen. Robert Arter and Col. Roger Donlon.

“These men and women we honor today, their service is a gift to us,” Donlon said in his brief speech.

The funeral services were closed by words from William Owensby Jr., director of the Fort Leavenworth National Cemetery complex for the National Cemetery Administration and the Department of Veterans Affairs. He said his organization had been and would continue to work with the Missing in America Project to find and bury any and every unclaimed veteran throughout the country.

“We take that commitment very seriously,” he said.

district now pays $378.16 each month per covered employee, the value of one month’s premium for an individual; the union originally wanted that increased to $500, then lowered it to $450.

The district originally wanted to pay only $333.68, the cost of the same coverage for the coming year, then revised the offer to go back to $378.16.

Employees would get to pocket the difference — equivalent to $44.48 per month — in the form of a one-time payment.

The union sees room to compromise: The district can stick to its current payment of $378. 16, but employees should be able to use the difference — the $44.48 per month — either to purchase improved coverage or reduce the price of having family coverage, said David Reber, the district’s lead negotiator.

That way employees could be using the savings for health, Reber said, and therefore avoid having to pay taxes on the money.

“There are lots of options for where that money could go,” Reber said.

Maceli’s, 1031 N.H. in downtown Lawrence, that was attended by about 100 people. It was a fundraiser for Independence Inc., an agency that provides a variety of services for people with disabilities.

Shomari emphasized that she wouldn’t be able to be independent without the help of family, friends and complete strangers — those willing to get something down from a shelf at the grocery store, for example.

“I can celebrate my independence because I have been able to depend on others,” she said.

She also depends on agencies like Independence Inc. for services like transportation and use of computers, and it’s an agency that’s experiencing funding cuts.

“It’s scary to open emails every day,” said Stacey Hunter Schwartz, executive director of Independence Inc. She said they just lost $60,000 from the Kansas Department of Social and Rehabilitation Services for attendant care.

“That’s the latest blow,” she said.

Hunter Schwartz said Independence Inc. honored Douglas County administrator Craig Weinaug with its first Champion award during the luncheon because he gives “great thought” to the ramifications of budget deciWeinaug sions. She said he also tries to solve problems for organizations, even when it’s not his job.

“He’s someone who doesn’t just push the papers around. He really tries to understand what each organization provides to the community and he cares about the citizens of the community receiving those services,” she said. “They are not just functions, objects and numbers to him.”

Weinaug, 59, pulls from his personal experiences.

Teacher evaluations also remain a contested topic, although Reber sees room for compromise there, too.

For the past two years, a joint committee of teachers and administrators has been working on revising the district’s methods for evaluating teacher performance, so that the process includes more self-evaluation by teachers.

The district has pushed for the process to continue, while the union has argued that it should stop — unless the district would agree to change the way it decides which teachers get let go in the event of layoffs, known as a “reduction in force,” or RIF. The union could back off its push against the RIF process, at least for now, provided that the district understands that the union still opposes it and intends to bring it back up again next year, Reber said.

Thursday’s meeting will give both sides a chance to compare notes, and potentially reach a tentative agreement.

“We’re getting really close,” Reber said.

Notable ● Could the U.S. lose its

Auditors seek to recover program funding

By Christine Metz cmetz@ljworld.com

Dumbfounded, left holding the bag, the rug pulled out from underneath them — that’s how a group of energy auditors described the state of Kansas’s decision to remove $22 million from the Efficiency Kansas program.

More than two dozen auditors met in Kansas City, Kan., less than a week after the Kansas Energy Office sent out letters informing them that funding was being reallocated from the Efficiency Kansas program to three renewable energy projects in the state.

Tuesday was the inaugural meeting of the Kansas City chapter of Efficiency First.

But instead of electing officers and adopting bylaws, the members spent most of the time developing strategy on how to convince the state and the U.S. DepartThen they ment of strip the Energy to keep money (away) and didn’t even the money in give us a the program. chance.”

The auditors — Mark Rixon, director were of training for Green among Collar Institute the more than 70 in the state who for the past year and a half have been performing home energy audits through the Efficiency Kansas program and then helping homeowners seek f inancing to make energy eff iciency improvements through lowinterest or zero percent loans.

Last week, the Kansas Corporation Commission, which oversees the Kansas Energy Office, said since the Efficiency Kansas program wasn’t going to spend the full $38 million in stimulus money by the April 30 deadline, the money would be reallocated to “shovel-ready projects.”

According to the KCC, those projects are pending DOE approval.

The redirection of funding came after the Kansas Energy Office had urged auditors to ramp up their programs in an effort to spend the money by the deadline, said Mark Rixon, who is director of training for Green Collar Institute, which trains energy auditors.

“Then they strip the money (away) and didn’t even give us a chance,” Rixon said.

Since the program was launched, more than 600 people have taken out loans worth more than $4 million dollars.

While the program was slow to start, it has gained momentum in recent months with more than $1.5 million in loans made last month, auditors said.

“It’s working,” said Paul Rieck, a mechanical contractor and energy auditor who did four projects through the Efficiency Kansas program.

On Tuesday, auditors wanted to know what was going to happen to customers who had already received audits and were counting on the loans to make the home improvement upgrades.

While the auditors agreed they weren’t going to spend all the stimulus money, they wanted to know why more wasn’t left in the program to cover the audits already in progress.

“They need to let us bow out of this gracefully,” said Ramona Schwartz, who worked with the Efficiency Kansas program through the Metropolitan Energy Center.

“Let us take care of the people that were already promised (loans).”

top credit rating even if a deal is reached to raise the debt limit?

Market analysts and investors increasingly say yes.

The outcome won’t be quite as scary as a default, but financial markets would still take a blow.

Mortgage rates could rise.

States and cities, already strapped, could find it more difficult to borrow. Stocks could lose their gains for the year.

“At this point, we’re more concerned about the risk of a downgrade than a default,” said Terry Belton, global head of fixed income strategy at JPMorgan Chase. In a conference call with reporters Tuesday, Belton said the loss of the country’s AAA rating may rattle markets, but it’s “better than missing an interest payment.”

Boehner to rewrite criticized GOP debt plan

By Charles Babington Associated Press Writer

W A S H I N G T O N — Stung by revelations that his plan would cut spending less than advertised, House Speaker John Boehner on Tuesday postponed a vote on a debtceiling measure that was already running into opposition from tea party conservatives.

Tuesday’s markets

Their adamant opposition to any tax increases forced Boehner to back away from a “grand bargain” with Obama that might have made dramatic cuts in government spending. Yet when Boehner turned this week to a more modest cost-cutting plan, with no tax increases, many conservatives balked again. They said the proposal lacked the more potent tools they seek, such as a constitutional mandate for balanced budgets.

Rep. Jim Jordan of Ohio, chairman of a large group of conservative Republicans, sent a tremor through the Capitol on Tuesday when he said he doubted Boehner had enough support to pass his plan. The Boehner bill would provide an immediate debt ceiling increase but would require further action before the 2012 elections.

Obama strongly opposes that last requirement, arguing that it would reopen the delicate and crucial debt discussions to unending political pressure during next year’s campaigns.

The president supports a separate bill, pushed by Majority Leader Harry Reid in the Democratic-controlled Senate, that would raise the debt ceiling enough to tide the government over through next year — and the elections.

Boehner wasn’t helped when presidential candidate Tim Pawlenty and the groups Tea Party Patriots and Tea Party Express criticized his plan. A worse blow came when a congressional analysis said his plan would produce smaller savings than originally promised. Of particular embarrassment was a Congressional Budget office finding that Boehner’s measure would cut the deficit by just $1 billion next year.

Boy taken to hospital after diving incident

A boy was taken to the hospital Tuesday morning as a precaution after he hit his head while jumping off a diving board at the Outdoor Aquatic Center, 747 Ky. Jimmy Gibbs, the city’s aquatics manager, said the boy got out of the pool on his own after apparently hitting his head on a diving board. Gibbs said the boy, who was there for a swimming camp, was alert and breathing.

“Lifeguards responded. Any time there’s potential for head and neck injuries, we do call emergency medical technicians,” Gibbs said.

Sgt. Steve Lewis said Delbert Terry was taken to Lawrence Memorial Hospital after he lost control of his

1993 Chevrolet pickup truck about 10:15 p.m. while headed west.

Lewis said the truck went into the north ditch and eventually over a field drive before crossing both lanes of traffic and into the south ditch, which caused the vehicle to roll. The truck landed on its side, and Lawrence Douglas County Fire Medical workers extricated Terry before taking him to the hospital.

Lewis said officers suspect alcohol was a contributing factor but that was still under investigation as Terry agreed to submit a blood sample at the hospital. Lewis said officers also believe Terry’s license was revoked and that he was not complying with restrictions.

Terry was listed in fair condition Tuesday at Lawrence Memorial Hospital, a hospital spokeswoman said.

At least 17 dead, 3 missing in landslides in South Korea

By Sam Kim Associated Press Writer

SEOUL , S OUTH KOREA — Heavy rain sent landslides barreling through the South Korean capital and a northern town today, killing 17 and leaving at least three missing, officials said.

Eight of the 12 killed in the early morning landslide in Chuncheon, about 68 miles northeast of Seoul, were college students who had been doing volunteer work, said Byun In-soo of the town’s fire station. They were staying in a resort cabin when the mud and debris engulfed them.

In Seoul, five people were killed in a landslide, said a police official in the Bangbae area. The dead have not yet been identified. One child was also missing.

South Korea has been pummeled with strong rain this week.

About 15 inches of rain fell in Seoul in just 17 hours starting Tuesday afternoon. More than 10 inches fell on Chuncheon in the last two days.

Weather off icials say another 10 inches could fall through Friday in northern South Korea, including Seoul, parts of which were flooded from the rains.

Head lice reported at 2 Lawrence day cares

By Karrey Britt kbritt@ljworld.com

Head lice have been reported in two Lawrence child care facilities this summer, according to the LawrenceDouglas County Health Department.

Kristen Helling, president of a Lawrence business that distributes Lice Ice, a nontoxic treatment for head lice, said there’s been an uptick in orders and phone calls from frantic parents.

But there’s no reason to panic.

Kathy Colson, clinic coordinator at the health department, said lice cause no serious health issues; they are just a nuisance. Lice are fairly common among young children and can be found any time of year.

“Seeing head lice in day cares isn’t really that surprising,” Colson said. “It’s just the nature of the age and how they share everything and how they play, especially little girls at the age of 4. They are always playing with each other’s hair.”

The first sign of lice typically is itching of the head.

Adult lice can be seen with the naked eye — they are about the size of a sesame seed, but it’s not easy because they tend to match hair color.

They also are fast and shun light. They typically can be spotted on the scalp behind the ears and near the neckline at the base of the scalp.

“It’s a challenge. I don’t envy any parents having to deal with it,” Colson said.

Here’s some basic information about head lice from the Kansas Department of Health and Environment, Colson and Helling.

Q: A:

What are lice?

They are parasites that can adhere to the hair, eyebrows and eye lashes of humans. They lay eggs — called nits — on the hair shafts. Like mosquitoes, they feed on human blood and cause itching. A female will lay six to 10 eggs per day, and lice will mature to adult stage in nine to 12 days. The average louse lives 32 days.

Q: Do they transmit diseases?

A: No, they don’t transmit bacteria or viruses. But excessive scratching can lead to abrasion of the skin or crusting. In some cases, secondary bacterial infections can result from scratching.

Q: What’s the best treatment?

A: Treatment should take place as soon as possible using prescription or nonprescription products, like Lindane, NIX, Rid, Pronto and R&C Shampoo which contain louse-killing substances called pediculicides.

A two-week regimen of shampooing and fine-tooth wet combing is recommended. During the course of treat-

ment, parents will observe a continual reduction in the number of adult lice and nits removed with each combing.

There are products that don’t have toxic chemicals, like Lice Ice hair gel, that also can be effective. Local pharmacists and doctors might recommend other treatments like an acne cleanser or even mayonnaise.

Parents should continue weekly inspections of their children for lice throughout the school year.

Q: How are they transmitted?

A: Head lice transmission occurs when living lice move from one person to another, usually through sharing of combs, brushes, clothing or even when kids share a bed.

It is recommended to wash bedding, clothes or stuffed animals in hot water and run them through a dryer.

Helling, of Lice Ice, also suggests putting items in a Ziplock bag and then in the freezer for 24 hours. She said lice can not survive extreme temperatures.

Q: Can they become a household problem?

A: Lice can not reproduce away from humans, so furniture, carpets, rugs and buildings do not become infested with lice. Human lice also do not live on cats or dogs.

Extensive cleansing, vacuuming and spraying of carpets and beds is not recommended.

Q: What are school policies regarding lice?

A: When a child is discovered to have lice at school, the student may be sent home at the end of the day with a proviso that treatment is started before returning. The Kansas state regulation does not require the child to be nit-free to return to school.

Sonja Gaumer, nursing services facilitator for Lawrence Public Schools, said students with head lice may return to school after treatment with an antiparasitic shampoo. The student should report to the school health office upon returning to school.

Q: Does the LawrenceDouglas County Health Department offer assistance?

A: A nurse can assist in the detection of lice, provide education and shampoo treatment for families to use at home. The office visit is $14 per family. The shampoo is $6 for 2 ounces and $12 for 4 ounces.

For more information, call the health department’s clinic at 843-0721.

Faulty SRS plan As the cost-saving justifications for closing the Lawrence SRS office crumble away, state officials should admit their mistake and revisit their decision.

I

t is becoming increasingly apparent that officials of the Kansas Department of Social and Rehabilitation Services hadn’t done their homework before deciding to close the Lawrence SRS office.

Secretary Rob Seidlecki and his staff owe it to Lawrence and the state to revisit that decision based on real, accurate figures of how much the closing will save the state.

Several pieces of information that have come to light in the last several days should call into question Seidlecki’s leadership and competence as the SRS chief. ● On Monday, the Journal-World obtained a memo from a Kansas City SRS official indicating that Lawrence SRS workers could not be transferred to the Topeka office because it would be unmanageable to have staff members from the Kansas City SRS district working in an office in the Topeka SRS district. On Tuesday, another Kansas City SRS official sent another memo saying Topeka was still an option for displaced Lawrence staff members.

However, according to yet another SRS spokeswoman, this one in Topeka, the question of whether Lawrence cases could be transferred to Topeka “is still undergoing review.”

Now it looks as if Lawrence workers can move to Topeka but, if they do, they may not be able to take their Lawrence cases with them. So who will handle those cases? Apparently Seidlecki didn’t even talk to his own staff people enough before announcing the Lawrence closure to figure out how this part of the transition would work. ● About half of the $400,000 the state SRS office said it would save from closing the Lawrence office was federal reimbursement funding that now will be lost, so the state savings is down to about $200,000. An SRS spokeswoman tried to soften that blow by saying, “It’s all taxpayer money, so we are saving money.” Yes, it is federal taxpayer money, some of which came from Kansas taxpayers, that now will go to states other than Kansas where it was supporting a key SRS office in Lawrence. ● State Rep. Paul Davis, D-Lawrence, points out that while Seidlecki is closing SRS offices across the state on the pretext of cutting administrative costs, he has created several new high-level administrative positions on his own staff. The salaries for the people filling new positions for a chief of staff and a deputy secretary handling faith-based initiatives alone add up to just under $200,000 — the entire amount that it now appears will be saved by closing the Lawrence office. ● Among the greatest local concerns about closing the Lawrence office is how to provide SRS coverage for child-in-need-of-care cases.

Although state officials have offered assurances that those workers would be available whenever needed, Douglas County District Attorney Charles Branson reported at a recent public meeting that the state SRS office had no plan for how that would be accomplished.

In addition to all of these factors, uncertainty remains about whether the state will be able to break its lease on two buildings at 19th and Delaware streets. State SRS officials say their attorneys have told them that a “financial hardship” clause in the lease will allow them to break it. However, even if that is the case, that clause may be overridden by a four-year “guaranteed lease period” that won’t run out until December 2012.

Local government or nonprofit entities may be willing to offer money or other benefits as part of a negotiation to save the local SRS office, but the inept handling of this matter by state officials raises questions about whether local taxpayers should offer such a bailout.

The better option would be for Gov. Sam Brownback and Seidlecki to simply admit that the decision to close the Lawrence office was based on faulty and incomplete information and should be reversed.

Betrayal of allies in Iraq shames U.S. Last week I wrote a column about the plight of Iraqis who helped U.S. troops and civilians but face death as “collaborators” after we leave.

Since my column appeared, I’ve been receiving emails from Iraqis who fear that we will betray them. A special immigrant visa (SIV) program to get them out has been virtually frozen — supposedly, for security reasons — even though these Iraqis have undergone security checks in order to work on U.S. bases.

Many who had been issued SIV visas now face long delays or have been told their visas are canceled.

According to State Department figures, fewer than 3,500 of 25,000 special visas authorized in 2008 have been issued.

Reading these emails makes my blood boil — at our betrayal of our Iraqi friends and allies.

(You can read excerpts of several of the emails at my blog: www.philly.com/worldview.) If you feel as I do, I have suggestions at the end of the column about how you can help.

One emailer, A.M. (I use his initials for safety’s sake), is a 26-yearold interpreter who has worked with a U.S. combat unit and with a U.S. contracting unit that checks on Iraqi subcontractors.

“My job was to coordinate with the government of Iraq to prevent waste, fraud and abuse,” he emailed me. “We made these companies to pay hundreds of

“

According to State Department figures, fewer than 3,500 of 25,000 special visas authorized in 2008 have been issued.” thousands of U.S. dollars they didn’t pay in previous years.”

A.M. got recommendations from the brigadier general heading his unit and several other senior officers in the command.

But, in doing his job well, A.M.’s face became known to Iraqi contractors and ministry officials. He began receiving death threats. “In 2010 my car windows were broken in front of my house and a red X was taped on my driver’s side window,” he told me in a phone interview. For safety, he moved onto the U.S. base.

He must move off the base when it closes next month, but he was told in June that his special visa is on hold for eight to 12 months because of new security procedures. This leaves him

open to assassination.

He certainly can’t expect Iraqi authorities to protect him. “In Iraqi culture, if you worked for the Americans you are a ‘spy’ and a ‘bad guy,”’ A.M. said, glumly.

“Our police don’t work in a proper manner. Every single police or army unit has its own loyalties, and if they knew I worked as an interpreter they would hate me.”

As if this weren’t bad enough, radical Sunni and Shiite militia groups have publicly pledged to kill Iraqis who worked for Americans. “I don’t know what I will do,” A.M. admitted. “I have to leave.”

Even many Iraqis who have received visas are in jeopardy.

A.M.’s good friend, her parents, and two other families were pulled off a plane for the United States at Amman airport, SIVs in hand, and told they had to wait for further security approvals.

The families had already sold their homes and possessions and could not go back to Baghdad.

After a month in an airport hotel, and a brief return to Iraq, A.M.’s friends regained their visas through the intercession of a U.S. senator.

But the other two families — both headed by widows — had to seek refuge in northern Iraq, living on dwindling savings. To their horror, they’ve recently been told their visas were revoked because of “derogatory information.” They cannot find

out what this means, nor can they appeal.

Iraqi and U.S. contacts tell me this Kafka-esque revocation of visas for “derogatory information” is becoming more common.

Becca Heller, who directs the Iraqi Refugee Assistance Project (IRAP) in New York, recalled another hideous case: A longtime interpreter for the U.S. Marines who was a victim of a targeted shooting and who lives in hiding, has also been rejected for “derogatory information.” Never mind his sheaf of background checks and military recommendations. Neither his military supervisor nor U.S. lawyers from IRAP have been able to get any U.S. government agency to explain the denial.

Readers have asked how they can help. One way is to contact members of Congress, Secretary of Homeland Security Janet Napolitano, and Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton.

Ask why we don’t have a transparent SIV process that expedites visas for those in danger, and why we haven’t hired enough staff to process their applications.

Groups such as IRAP provide volunteer U.S. lawyers to help SIV applicants and need support.

Most Americans may want to forget about Iraq, but the betrayal of our allies shames us.

Theater lauded

SRS closing has political tone The announced closure of the Lawrence Social and Rehabilitation Services office has been both a significant blow to our community and a clear indication that politics is far from absent in budget decisions coming from Topeka. It must be disappointing to every citizen of Lawrence and Douglas County that the office will close and that SRS employees will be forced to relocate to offices in other cities.

There are many problems with this decision. First, of course, is the very basic question of why the Lawrence office was targeted. Gov. Sam Brownback and SRS chief Siedlecki have been quite clear that reducing the statewide SRS budget by $1 million is a high priority. But what has not been clear at all is why the Lawrence SRS office must be closed to provide $400,000 of that amount. As the Journal-World has reported, the closure comes at a time when the Mr. Siedlecki has increased the SRS administrative budget by almost $200,000 for two high level appointments in the agency’s Topeka headquarters.

Neither he nor the governor has indicated why the Lawrence office had to be totally eliminated rather than simply downsized and the shortfall made up by similar partial cuts to SRS offices in other parts of the state. Nor has Siedlecki or Brownback discussed the quite pertinent fact that about half of the savings gained from closing the Lawrence SRS office will be offset by the loss of federal funding brought in by that office.

Finally, it’s hard to imagine that the governor or the SRS chief is

“

Is it surprising in a state where the Legislature is overwhelmingly conservative, as is the governor, that when budget cuts are to be made, they fall most harshly on those liberal areas?” unaware that the closure of the Lawrence SRS office will force the county and city to allocate funds to other local agencies to help compensate for the loss of SRS services. In other words, Lawrence and Douglas County taxpayers will end up paying more in local taxes, an increase that not only will offset any tax reductions derived from the closure, but actually increase local taxes to the point that the local increases exceed the state-level reductions.

So why is this happening? To my mind the answer is clear. Lawrence is, without question, the last politically liberal outpost in Kansas.

Lawrence and Douglas County show up on political maps as a speck of liberal blue in a sea of conservative red. Is it surprising in a state where the Legislature is overwhelmingly conservative, as is the

To the editor: Theatre Lawrence (formerly Lawrence Community Theatre) has become outstanding in offering a level of performance art that serves well in helping to maintain Lawrence as a culturally rich and desirable place to live.

We are consistently treated to high quality on-stage theater productions in respect to acting, directing and behind-the-scenes technical support.

Mary Doveton does a superb job as executive director. Her staff, consisting mostly of community volunteers, provides an invaluable service that assures success of theater operations. We personally have seen in a detailed tour of the present facility that it is not adequate for providing an entirely satisfactory theater experience for its patrons or for participating actors. The building needs to be replaced with a modern and more functional structure designed specifically for theater performances.

The executive director and board of directors are now faced with a closing deadline at the end of September for securing pledges necessary to fund the building project or risk losing some important grants. We and other enthusiastic patrons will be delighted to see the project go forward. The new building is certain to become a significant cultural asset for Lawrence and comes with an additional bonus of drawing theatergoers from surrounding areas well beyond our city. Yes, Theatre Lawrence is that good and deserving of community support.

governor, that when budget cuts are to be made, they fall most harshly on those liberal areas? This is the nature of politics. It is, in a sense, reverse patronage. But is it a good idea politically or socially?

I think the answer to this question is “no.” Reducing state services to areas dominated by minority political viewpoints is extremely dangerous. First, it sets a precedent that may someday backfire. Although Brownback is a political conservative, Kansas has frequently elected moderate Democrats or Republicans to fill the gubernatorial chair. By using agency budget reductions to punish political opponents, Brownback sets the stage for his successors to do the same.

Second, neither the governor nor the Legislature should forget that while the majority of Lawrence voters may not share their politics or support their election campaigns, there is a strong Republican conservative minority in Lawrence and Douglas County.

These folks, too, are being punished by the cuts now being made.

In the end, I would suggest that cuts to administrative agencies should be made in a politically neutral way, based not on politics but on proven economic efficiency and social needs. By all means, Governor, hand out patronage jobs to your supporters. Lend your authority and prestige to legLetters Policy islation you feel comfortable with.

Club Med It’s Club Med night at the Jackpot, 943 Mass., and DJs Huerco S. y Ultrademon are two producers that couldn’t be more different or better suited to keep you dancing tonight. Huerco S. makes some truly chill instrumentals that develop slowly and bleed together easily. Ultrademon’s tracks are far more delineated and much more deliberate. There are some obvious nods to electronic groups like Justice and Daft Punk, not that that’s a bad thing.

BIG 12 FOOTBALL MEDIA DAYS

Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

KU, UT balance league Let Texas A&M agonize over the unfair advantages the Texas television network has in revenue and recruiting. Let Missouri fret over it as well. For Kansas, the best thing to say about it is what’s being said: Nothing.

The advantages of staying in a conference with Texas far outweigh the thought of trying to find a home that doesn’t include the Longhorns.

Think about the options discussed the last time conference realignment took place, when the Big 12 lost Colorado and Nebraska and teetered on the brink of extinction.

The Big 10? Didn’t want KU. The Mountain West? It didn’t make much sense geographically and was a disaster financially because of the tiny TV dollars.

The Big East? Kansas would be more competitive in that football conference, but think of the insane travel demands for student-athletes. Plus, so much for hopping in the car with fellow alumni for a football or basketball road trip. Kansas fans like to head south, where it’s warmer in the autumn and winter, for games, not north or east.

Texas A&M bolting elsewhere wouldn’t spell the end of the Big 12, and although it would damage the conference, it wouldn’t be so bad for Kansas.

Texas needs Kansas to maintain the basketball glamour of the conference, and Kansas needs Texas in order to convince recruits they play in a bigtime football conference.

Kansas needs Texas to sell recruits from the Metroplex shunned by the Longhorns that the only thing better than playing football for UT is beating UT’s football team. It’s a tough sell and always will be, but as long as KU and Kansas State stay joined at the hip with the Longhorns, they’ll compete in a big-time conference, get bigtime exposure and generate bigtime revenue.

Some bemoan a league called the Big 12 having just 10 teams, but commissioner Dan Beebe is not among them. Beebe’s not about to push for expansion for the sake of expansion and won’t back any plan that pushes the league to 12 teams unless the last two heighten the profile of the league and bring new TV markets.

So for now, Kansas plays a greatly improved conference schedule in both football and basketball. In football, the Jayhawks go from playing five teams from the division formerly known as North and three from the South to playing three North opponents and six South every year. Is that such a big difference? Well, yes.

Kansas has a nine-game losing streak against South teams, and the average score in those games spanning three seasons — Mark Mangino’s final two and Turner Gill’s first — was 46-16.

Still, it beats moving to the Mountain West.

In basketball, the schedule gets tougher and will result in far more competitive, enjoyable games because instead of playing one game a year against South teams, KU plays two. Losing two games apiece against Nebraska and Colorado means subtracting four virtually automatic victories.

KU’s record in the past 32 games against Colorado and Nebraska combined: 32-0. In the past 32 games against South foes, Kansas has a still-dominant record of 26-6 record with fewer blowouts and therefore more exciting games to watch, especially the ones against Texas.

Less is more

OL Hatch shows off trim(mer) frame

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

D A L L A S — A few weeks ago, Kansas University senior Tim Biere was taken aback by a string of words that came out of the mouth of fellow senior Jeremiah Hatch.

“It was in the weight room. I was standing by the scale, and Hatch came over and said, ‘I’m the biggest loser, I’m the biggest loser,’” Biere remembered. “I was just like, ‘What?’”

Contrary to how it might have sounded, Hatch actually was celebrating. For the first time in what surely seemed like years, the offensive lineman from Dallas stepped onto the scale and saw his weight register a number that began with a 2. Like the contestants on the popular television show “The Biggest Loser,” Hatch, who said he watches the show, took great pride in seeing that.

“We play around a lot,” he said.

“So they were just like, ‘Hey, Hatch, you’re the biggest loser.’

But that moment was real.”

And it led Hatch to Dallas, where he spent Tuesday as one of three players representing KU at Day Two of the Big 12 media days.

Six months ago, Hatch’s pres-

ence here was a long shot at best.

He was injured, out of shape and, quite frankly, not ready to face the kind of media barrage that comes with the showcase event.

Pound by pound, that all changed. But don’t take Hatch’s word for it. Or Biere’s. Look to the words of the one person in this world who knows Hatch best: his mother, Shannon McNeal.

McNeal first learned her son was coming to Dallas this week when she received a Google Alert about Hatch’s spot alongside seniors Biere and Steven Johnson as the faces of the 2011 Jayhawks.

She has talked to him a Hatch lot in the past six months, but only seen him a couple of times. When she first laid her eyes on her 6-foot-3, 290-somethingpound monster of a son on Tuesday, McNeal saw the hard work through his trim frame.

She also saw pride.

“I think he’s just enjoying the fact that it’s his senior year, and it’s a step forward,” McNeal said. “He had to make a decision, ‘Am I gonna go forward, or am I gonna go backwards?’ We talked about it, and I just said, ‘Babe, if you want

BOSOX ROCK

to do this, you gotta lose the weight.’”

Done. But it’s not like dropping 40 pounds was akin to moving mountains. As Hatch says, “Losing the weight was not hard. Ever since I’ve been here I’ve lost weight. The thing has been gaining it back. There was no doubt that I could lose the weight, it’s just about keeping it off.”

Call it a sense of urgency or blame it on the flicker of light that’s now visible at the end of Hatch’s college career.

Whatever it was, it inspired Hatch to kick old habits and, just like that, everything clicked.

“They told me, ‘Hey, just be consistent,’” Hatch said of the message from his coaches. “So I got on a plan and kept my eye on the plan. I just kept saying, ‘Hey, it’s time.’”

Hatch didn’t do this alone. He credits KU coaches John Williams and J.B. Grimes for helping him set the goal. He credits his family and his faith for helping him attack it.

And he tips his cap to his teammates, guys he’s shed blood and dripped sweat with, for not letting him fall short.

come a long way,” offensive-line coach Grimes said. “About this time a year ago, it was not good. It was about as bad as it gets. He was in bad shape, his back was hurt, his knee was hurt, and he was carrying an extra 45 pounds. Now I can wrap my arms around that young man. I couldn’t be more proud of that kid.”

Through Hatch’s eyes, his version of “Extreme Makeover: College Football Edition” is nothing to celebrate. He’s happy because he’s healthy, 100 percent, he says.

“Jeremiah’s always been a person who loves himself,” McNeal said. “It wasn’t, ‘I’m miserable, so I gotta lose the weight.’ It was more, ‘I gotta lose the weight because I’ve got a back problem’ and things like that.”

For him, losing the weight was something he ought to do. After all, he knew what was holding him back.

“We just couldn’t count on him,” Grimes said. “It’s totally the opposite right now.”

Tuesday, KU coach Turner Gill explained how.

“He really has matured just in the year I’ve known him,” Gill said.

Blue-chip basketball prospect Kaleb Tarczewski, who has had yet another stellar summer playing center for the New England Playaz, will complete his AAU career at this week’s Double Pump Best of Summer Tournament in Anaheim, Calif.

After that, the 7-foot, 220pounder from St. Mark’s High in Southborough, Mass., returns to

the East Coast, where he’s expected to deliberate on finalists Kansas, Arizona, North Carolina and Kentucky and, sometime in August, announce his college choice.

“I’m trying not to think about recruiting too much,” Tarczewski, Rivals.com’s No. 12-rated player, told pointguardu.com from the adidas Super 64 tourney in Las Vegas.

“I want to focus on these AAU games. But when it is time, I want to make my decision as soon as

possible. I don't think anything will be final until after July.”

Tarczewski made unofficial visits to KU, North Carolina and Arizona in June with the goal of being able to choose a college prior to his senior year.

Speaking in a rare summertime interview to pointguardu.com, Tarczewski said of KU: “I really like Lawrence. Kansas is great. It feels like home. The coaches Please see RECRUIT, page 5B

Police: Freestyle Olympic skier kills himself

Peterson

SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — Olympic silver medalist Jeret “Speedy” Peterson was found dead in a remote canyon in Utah in what police are calling a suicide.

Peterson, a freestyle skier who patented the so-called “Hurricane” and took second place at the Vancouver Games

with it, called 911 before shooting himself, police said. The 29-year-old had been cited for drunken driving Friday in Hailey, Idaho and had pleaded not guilty.

Officers found Peterson late Monday night between Salt Lake City and Park City in Lambs Canyon.

Police said a suicide note was found near Peterson’s car; they declined to reveal what it said.

He was one of the most colorful of athletes, and he wore his heart on his sleeve — never more than on Feb. 26, 2010, when he walked off the mountain with tears stream-

ing down his face after taking the silver medal.

“I know that a lot of people go through a lot of things in their life, and I just want them to realize they can overcome anything,” Peterson said that night. “There’s light at the end of the tunnel, and mine was silver, and I love it.”

COMMENTARY

NFL teams waste no time to cut players

OFF TO WORK THEY GO

By Bob Glauber Newsday

The handshake between Roger Goodell and DeMaurice Smith wasn’t even three hours’ old before the cold, harsh reality of life in the NFL began to set in.

As about 1,900 players around the league — and millions of fans around the country — celebrated the end of a 41⁄2month lockout, many of those players were greeted unceremoniously by their teams.

They were told to get lost.

The first trickle of news came from Baltimore, where the Ravens’ Todd Heap, Willis McGahee, Derrick Mason and Kelly Gregg were informed they would be released at 3 p.m. CDT on Thursday.

By Tuesday afternoon, that trickle turned into a torrent, as dozens more established players were told their services no longer were wanted. Two prominent Giants, guard/center Rich Seubert and center Shaun O’Hara, got the grim news on Tuesday. So did Cowboys receiver Roy Williams and running back Marion Barber.

And Packers linebacker Nick Barnett. And Patriots linebacker Tully Banta-Cain. And Vikings defensive tackle Jimmy Kennedy.

The list undoubtedly will continue to grow, as teams deal with the return of the salary cap for the first time since the 2009 season. Players with bloated salaries or injuries — or, in the case of Seubert and O’Hara, both — now are confronted with the often unwelcome financial reality of pro football. The dizzying transaction list over the next five days, during which the NFL will try to play catch-up for nearly five months of inactivity, will only highlight the business side of the sport.

Consider Banta-Cain: He suffered an abdominal injury last season, then rehabbed it during the offseason after doctors determined no surgery was required. ESPNBoston.com reported that Banta-Cain was reinjured in a recent workout and had to undergo surgery that would keep him out up to five weeks.

And how about Seubert and O’Hara?

They were part of an offensive line that once was one of the most durable units in the game. O’Hara was rehabbing from foot injuries and appeared ready to return, and Seubert suffered a serious knee injury in the regular-season finale last season. He, too, had hoped to come back this season.

The unit of Seubert, O’Hara, Chris Snee, Kareem McKenzie and David Diehl once had a streak of 38 starts, which included the Giants’ 2007 Super Bowl season. But unless Seubert and/or O’Hara come back at a reduced salary, the Giants’ offensive line will undergo a major makeover.

General manager Jerry Reese didn’t comment Tuesday about the pending releases, but he surely has thought things through for an extended period. There wasn’t much else to do for general managers and other team executives during the lockout besides think about what was coming if and when the league resumed operations.

Reese did offer a cryptic comment Friday in Atlanta, where he and other GMs were briefed on the finer points of the new labor agreement and how it would affect personnel decisions.

When asked if he was frustrated by the inability to work on his roster, Reese said: “It’s not frustrating. This is what the league is. It’s about making adjustments. Sometimes you have to make adjustments on the fly … It’s what we do, make adjustments, make tough decisions and move on.”

There are no tougher decisions for any general manager than telling players it’s time to move on.

Baltimore Ravens to cut four veterans

OWINGS MILLS, MD. — The Baltimore Ravens are wasting no time shaping their roster for the 2011 season.

The Ravens on Tuesday night agreed to terms on a five-year, $32 million contract with offensive lineman Marshal Yanda, an unrestricted free agent who has spent his entire four-year career in Baltimore. Drafted in the third round of the 2007 draft, the 6-foot-3, 315-pound Yanda is equally effective at guard and tackle.

Retaining Yanda was a priority for general manager Ozzie Newsome, who cleared salarycap space for the sturdy lineman by dumping the contracts of four notable veterans.

Running back Willis McGahee, former Pro Bowl tight end Todd Heap, wide receiver Derrick Mason and nose guard Kelly Gregg have been told they will be cut, coach John Harbaugh confirmed Tuesday.

In a letter from Ohio State athletic director Gene Smith dated Tuesday, Smith said that Pryor was ineligible because he failed to cooperate with NCAA and Ohio State investigators.

He then added, “The university must also dissociate you from its athletic program for a period of five years.”

That means that Pryor can have no contact with recruits or enrolled Buckeyes, cannot accept complimentary tickets to home games and cannot use the team’s athletic facilities.

Smith didn’t rule out the use of all campus facilities, however.

“Please note that this dissociation does NOT prohibit you from enrolling in classes at the university to complete your degree,” Smith wrote. “As you know, I would encourage you to complete your degree.”

Panthers, DE Johnson reach deal

NCAA Panel proposes redefining ‘agent’

David J. Phillip/AP Photo

HOUSTON TEXANS QUARTERBACK MATT SCHAUB RIDES in the front passenger seat of a cart after a team run at their NFL football training facility Tuesday in Houston. NFL teams opened their facilities to players Tuesday after a 41⁄2-month lockout.

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — The Carolina Panthers weren’t about to let their top free agent, Charles Johnson, get away, even if it meant shelling out big bucks.

The Panthers persuaded Johnson, their prized defensive end, to agree to a contract worth $72 million over six years and that includes a $30 million signing bonus. The team confirmed the deal Tuesday night, and Johnson said he plans to sign the deal Friday.

“The Panthers told me the whole time they were going to come after me hard,” Johnson said. “I had to see it to believe, but they did.”

MAJOR-LEAGUE ROUNDUP

Weary Bosox rough up K.C. The Associated Press

American League Red Sox 13, Royals 9 BOSTON — David Ortiz had four hits and five RBIs, and Dustin Pedroia had four of Boston’s 16 hits Tuesday night to lead the Red Sox over Kansas City, their 18th win in 22 games.

Hours after the teams took a 1-1 pitchers’ duel into the 14th inning and finished up at 1:59 a.m., they combined for 31 hits and 22 runs against nine pitchers — including Royals outfielder Mitch Maier, who threw a scoreless inning.

Alfredo Aceves (6-1) threw 1 3 ⁄3 scoreless innings in relief to improve to 20-2 in his career. Nathan Adcock (1-1) got just one out for the Royals, allowing three earned runs, three hits and three walks as Boston scored six times in the fifth inning to turn a backand-forth game into a blowout.

Cardinals 3, Astros 1 ST. LOUIS — Albert Pujols hit a two-run homer in the first inning for St. Louis, and Jake Westbrook made it hold up with six innings of one-run ball.

Pujols hit the first pitch he saw from Brett Myers (3-11) on a line to left-center field. The ball appeared to hit the top of the wall, but was ruled a home run by third base umpire Mike DiMuro. Houston center fielder Michael Bourn and left fielder Carlos Lee rushed in to dispute the call, which was subsequently reviewed by replay and upheld for Pujols’ 23rd homer.

Heck, we’re talking about a young man who didn’t even get overly excited on Christmas morning growing up. Most of the time, he slept right through it.

So you can see how dropping a few pounds that he shouldn’t have been carrying to begin with would not be something to sing and dance about, even if his teammates and coaches seem quite impressed.

It’s taught me and grown me from a high schooler to a man.

So any time I have the chance to represent the university, it’s all smiles.”

DALLAS — Since the day he arrived in Lawrence as the head football coach at Kansas University, Turner Gill has talked the talk.

He often has dropped words like “championships” and “dynasty” and, anytime people have asked, he has stuck by them and emphasized that winning, and winning big, was and always would be one of his top goals.

Speaking to a small group of reporters at Day Two of Big 12 media days on Tuesday, Gill continued to push such thoughts.

“I think every single year we’re gonna have a chance to win a championship because if you get on a roll, you see things can happen,” he said.

For a brief moment after he uttered those words, he backed off and explained that he understood the reality of the situation.

“My expectation is to win the Big 12 championship,” he said. “To say what is probably

a true reality of being successful, it’s being bowl-eligible.

That’s what I expect for us.

Whether that happens or not, I guess that’s why they play the games.”

Gill then took that a step farther.

“I’d be disappointed if we don’t get this done fairly quickly in terms of being bowl-eligible,” he said.

“Whether that’s gonna happen this year, I don’t know. But I definitely know here in the next few years we should be able to get some things accomplished.”

Brock talk With new information about the legal trouble surrounding Brock Berglund seeming to pop up every day, Gill offered his thoughts about his incoming freshman QB from Highlands Ranch, Colo.

Asked if it were realistic to think that Berglund — or fellow freshman Michael Cummings of Killeen, Texas — could overtake sophomore Jordan Webb in four weeks of

Wainright on winning team KU target Ishmail Wainright scored 11 points, grabbed seven rebounds and dished three assists in leading the KC 76ers to a victory over Florida Team Breakdown in Monday’s finals of the Fab 48 tournament in Las Vegas. Wainright, a 6-5, 200-pound juniorto-be from Raytown (Mo.) South, tells Rivals.com he has a list that includes KU, Missouri, UCLA, Baylor, St. John's, Kentucky, Texas, West Virginia, Virginia Tech, Memphis, Texas Tech and UMKC. At one point, he was committed to Mizzou.

preseason camp, Gill left the door cracked.

“Anything can happen,” he said. “I’ve seen it. I’d say it’s a chance. I’m open to it, first of all. But, again, I’m not going to put somebody in there who isn’t ready. I’m not going to do it just to be doing it. I’m here to win football games, and I’m here to put the best people out there that give us the best chance to win.”

Gill has said he would handle whatever discipline may come Berglund’s way internally. He reiterated that stance Tuesday and then sent a subtle tip of his cap to the rest of the Class of 2011.

“I’m not gonna share how we’re gonna handle our business, but I’m gonna handle that the right way,” he said.

“Brock is just one guy on our football team. We’ve got other quality people on our football team and a lot of other quality young guys who are gonna be very, very important to our football program.”

announced him as his starting quarterback officially, it continues to look as if the job is Webb’s to lose.

Webb, a sophomore from Union, Mo., started seven games last season. His season had as many good moments as bad.

This offseason, Gill and offensive coordinator Chuck Long have lauded the sophomore QB’s improvement and newfound maturity.

Tuesday, asked about his quarterback situation, Gill said he’d give the ball to Webb if they had to play today. But they don’t. Camp doesn’t open until Aug. 3, and the season opener is a month after that.

“With Jordan Webb, I just want to make sure, as he comes back from spring football the first couple weeks, is he still at that same high level?” Gill said. “Because that’s important. Every week I want to see him being consistent. He’s had more reps, and we shouldn’t see as much of Webb in good shape the up-and-down inconsisThough Gill has not tency.”

Gill likes league’s new look Two of the hottest topics at this year’s media days were the controversy over the birth of The Longhorn Network and the adjustment the Big 12’s 10 remaining members face as they prepare to enter the first season of roundrobin play.

Gill had little to say about the network but was happy to chime in on the advantages of the new setup.

“I think that’s a plus for the Big 12 Conference,” he said.

“Now we’re going to know each other a little bit deeper, not only from a football standpoint. Now you know each other, the teams, how they are, what they do, and you get to know the players even better.”

Cool facts about ice cream Q: A:

What is the most popular ice cream?

According to the International Ice Cream Association, here’s a listing of the 15 most popular ice cream flavors and the percent preferring: 1. Vanilla, 29 percent 2. Chocolate, 8.9 percent 3. Butter pecan, 5.3 percent 4. Strawberry, 5.3 percent 5. Neapolitan, 4.2 percent 6. Chocolate chip, 3.9 percent 7. French vanilla, 3.8 percent 8. Cookies and cream, 3.6 percent 9. Vanilla fudge ripple, 2.6 percent 10. Praline pecan, 1.7 percent 11. Cherry, 1.6 percent 12. Chocolate almond, 1.6 percent 13. Coffee, 1.6 percent 14. Rocky road, 1.5 percent 15. Chocolate marshmallow, 1.3 percent All others, 23.7 percent

Q: Where did ice cream originate?

A: Again, the Ice Cream Association shares: ● The first frozen dessert is credited to Emperor Nero of Rome. It was a mixture of snow (which he sent his slaves into the mountains to retrieve) and nectar, fruit pulp and honey. Another theory is Marco Polo, 13th century bard and adventurer, brought with him to Europe from the Far East recipes for water ices ... said to be used in Asia for thousands of years. ● In 1700 Governor Bladen of Maryland served ice cream to his guests.

• The first ice cream parlor in America opened in New York City in 1776. ● Dolly Madison created a sensation when she served ice cream as a dessert in the White House at the second inaugural ball in 1812. ● Italo Marchiony sold his homemade ice cream from a pushcart on Wall Street. He reduced his overhead caused by customers breaking or wandering off with his serving glasses by baking edible waffle cups with sloping sides and a flat bottom. He patented his idea in 1903. ● Others link the ice

cream cone's invention to the 1904 World's Fair in St. Louis. An ice cream vendor there reportedly didn't have enough dishes to keep up with demand, so he teamed up with a waffle vendor who rolled his product into "cornucopias." ● Invention of the ice cream soda is usually attributed to Robert M. Green, who operated a soda water concession in Philadelphia.

Green, who sold a mix of carbonated water, cream, and syrup, apparently ran out of cream and substituted ice cream, hoping his customers wouldn't notice. But they did and daily sales receipts climbed from $6 to $600. ● During the stuffy Victorian period, drinking soda water was considered improper, so some towns banned its sale on Sundays.

An enterprising druggist in Evanston, Ind., reportedly concocted a legal Sunday alternative containing ice cream and syrup, but no soda. To show respect for the Sabbath, he later changed the spelling to "sundae." ● In 1843, New England housewife Nancy Johnson invented the hand-cranked ice cream churn. She patented her invention but lacked the resources to make and market the churn herself.

Mrs. Johnson sold the patent for $200 to a Philadelphia kitchen wholesaler who, by 1847, made enough freezers to satisfy the high demand.

From 1847 to 1877, more than 70 improvements to ice cream churns were patented. ● The first commercial ice cream plant was established in Baltimore in 1851 by Jacob Fussell. ● In 1983, Cookies 'N Cream, made with real Oreo cookies, became an instant hit, climbing to number five on the list of best-selling ice cream flavors. It also holds

the distinction of being the fastest growing new flavor in the history of the ice cream industry. ● In 1991, another flavor phenomenon was created — Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough ice cream, which combines the best part of the Chocolate Chip cookie — the raw dough — with creamy vanilla ice cream and semi-sweet chocolate chips.

Q: How do you make Cookie Dough Ice Cream?

A: Here’s one of many recipes that is on MakeIce Cream.com website:

COOKIE DOUGH ICE CREAM 2 cups milk 1 3/4 cup sugar 1/2 teaspoon salt 1 tablespoon vanilla 4 cups heavy cream 1 cup chocolate chip cookie dough 2 cups light cream

Scald milk until bubbles form around edge. Remove from heat. Add the sugar and salt. Stir until dissolved. Stir in light cream, vanilla and the heavy cream. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

Freeze as directed by your ice cream machine's instructions.

Once ice cream has been through the entire ice cream machine process and is now a chilled soft ice cream, add the chocolate chip cookie dough.

Just break up the dough as best you can with your hands and drop it in small clusters into the soft ice cream. Try to mix it around to ensure that the cookie dough is evenly distributed throughout the ice cream. Put the ice cream in the freezer for several hours until hardened. ●

Warning: For safety sake, never make your own cookie dough using raw eggs to put in the ice cream. If you choose to make your own cookie dough, use only a pasteurized egg product, such as Egg Beaters.

Q: In making ice cream, why is rock salt recommended?

A: Rock salt forces the ice surrounding the can of ice cream mix to melt. The "brine solution" or liquid that forms in the wooden bucket absorbs heat from the mix and gradually lowers the temperature of the

Healthy dips inspire better snacks

By Alison Ladman Associated Press Writer

Maybe you need another idea for packing fiber and vitamins into your child’s lunch. Or maybe you’re looking for a way to convince yourself to eat more fruit.

Either way, making a dip (or three) to dunk your fruit in can make it a little more enticing, and a lot more fun.

In constructing a healthful dip for fruit, the main problem lies in the base of the dip.

You want something that doesn’t pile on the fat or sugar, but still is interesting enough that you want to dunk your apple wedges and strawberries in it.

We wanted to create a creamy base that could be easily flavored. For obvious reasons, the full-fat versions of cream cheese and sour cream were out. Greek-style yogurt has a great mouth feel and creaminess, but some people find it overwhelmingly tart. So we opted to use low-fat cream cheese blended with nonfat Greek yogurt.

The result is creamy and luscious and is a perfect base for flavorings. As a bonus, it’s also a great way to get calcium.

FRUIT DIPPERS Servings: 10 (each serving represents 2 tablespoons of each dip for a total of 6 tablespoons) For the base: 2 cups nonfat plain Greek-style yogurt 8 ounces low-fat cream cheese For the chocolate: 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder 2 tablespoons honey Pinch cinnamon 2 tablespoons fat-free milk For the citrus:

DIPPERS SHOWN are orchard spice dipper, left, chocolate dipper, center, and citrus dipper.

Zest of 1/2 lemon Zest of 1/2 orange 2 tablespoons honey 2 tablespoons orange juice For the orchard spice: 1 tablespoon vanilla extract 1 teaspoon butter rum extract 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon 1/4 teaspoon dry ginger Pinch ground nutmeg Pinch ground cloves 2 tablespoons honey

In the bowl of a food proces-

sor, combine the yogurt and cream cheese. Process until completely smooth. Divide the mixture into 3 bowls. ● To make the chocolate dipper, in a small bowl, mix together the cocoa powder, honey, cinnamon and milk until completely smooth. Add to one of the bowls of the yogurt mixture and stir until smooth. ● To make the citrus dipper, stir both zests, the honey and orange juice into one of the remaining bowls of yogurt mixture. ● To make the orchard spice dipper, stir the vanilla, butter rum extract, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves and honey into the last bowl of yogurt and cream cheese.

Serve the dips with cut up wedges of apples, pears, peaches and berries.

mix until it begins to freeze.

If there were no salt added to the ice, it would melt at 32 degrees Fahrenheit and eventually the ice water and mix would come to equilibrium at 32 degrees. The ice cream mix, however, does not begin to freeze until its temperature falls below 27 degrees. Therefore, in order to freeze the mix, a salt concentration, or a ratio of 5 cups of ice to 1 cup of salt, is needed. At this concentration, the brine temperature should remain constant at 8 to 12 degrees. This will give the rapid cooling and freezing that is essential to making smooth creamy ice cream.

come and speak to us about farm insurance, and that was interesting. We discussed employment and ... how people get workers and how much they’re paid, and what’s a good way to recruit and what our responsibilities are.”

Interestingly, the new focus on education brings the group back to some of its founding goals. When it formed in 1983, Growing Lawrence was a reaction to the specialty crop producers that sprang up after the 1980 farm crisis, says Karen Pendleton, one of the group’s founding members.

“Between ’80 and ’83, there was a big push in what they called alternative crops,” says Pendleton, who says conventional growers were looking to diversify to avoid foreclosure after many farms shuttered because of poor weather, poor crops, poor prices and huge debts in 1980. “Everything went real bad, real fast. And so everybody was looking for an alternative crop. There were a lot of people putting in Christmas tree farms at that time.

Schaake’s got into the pumpkin patch business big time, Bismarck Gardens got into strawberries, we got into asparagus.”

The new “alternative” producers banded together as a way to learn from and support each other with educational sessions shepherded by the extension office and through a directory of growers, which had

JERRY WOHLETZ picks tomatos at his farm, Wohletz Farm Fresh, 1831 N. 1100 Road. Wohletz Farm Fresh sells under the name Tomato Allie at the Lawrence Farmers’ Market. Wohletz is a member of the Growing Lawrence coalition. its first printing within a year of the group’s founding. Starting initially with fruit and vegetable farmers, the group expanded over time, adding those who produce meat, dairy, Christmas trees, ornamental flowers, plus area pumpkin patches and greenhouses.

“A lot of the issues are the same. Because we talk about marketing and growing — growing and marketing are often the same for any crop,” says Jozie Schimke of Earth Flowers, an ornamental plant producer based in Lecompton, about the group’s diverse membership.

“We have just as many insect problems with flowers (as food) ... we all suffer

from the same weather troubles.”

As the years went on, the group transitioned into being a loose conglomeration, with each member attending a yearly meeting and receiving the name of his or her business in all Growing Lawrence promotional materials, including its annual directory and on its website, www.growinglawrence.com.

But that all changed at last year’s annual meeting, when, because of an interest in local food and farming, the group began gaining newer, less experienced members, the idea of returning to the group’s educational roots by setting up monthly meetings with

set topics that the members voted on at the annual gathering. The group’s members also felt a public educational component would set the organization aside from the numerous farm guides popping up in accordance to the same renewed interest in local food that was bringing in new farmers.

“As to not get lost in the crowd, what is it that we really need?” Pendleton says of the central quandary.

“What we decided we really needed was a networking group, so that we could get together and talk.”

Since January, members have been sharing information on all sorts of topics — see NovoGradac’s list — and

1 pound ground pork (or soy crumbles) 1 can sliced water chestnuts 2 carrots (or 2 cups baby carrots) 2 tablespoon olive oil 2 teaspoon minced fresh ginger 2 teaspoon Thai fish sauce 2 cloves fresh garlic 1 bundle green onions 3 tablespoons fresh chopped cilantro 2 tablespoons hoisin 3 tablespoons soy sauce 2 tablespoons chili garlic paste 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper Healthy dose of Sriracha or chiliracha (to your spicy taste) Salt and pepper to taste Serve in butter lettuce leaves (usually found in the grocery store called “living lettuce”).

have several more to come, including government-aided high tunnels, zoning and land use, good agricultural practices certification and the group’s topic for its next meeting, agritourism.

“Highly recommend it to anybody who’s just thinking about getting into it.

Because there’s just a wealth of information. ... You’ve got people with years of knowledge to help you out,” says Jane Wohletz of Wohletz Farm Fresh and Tomato Allie. “It eliminates a lot of trial and error when you listen to other people’s (stories), what they tried and didn’t work.”

Step 1) Cook your pork (or thoroughly heat your soy crumbles) and drain.

Step 2) While that is cooking, get out the food processor and chop together the carrots, water chestnuts, green onions (I use all but the last 2 or 3 inches of green), garlic and ginger.

Step 3) Add the vegetable mixture to the pan and then add all the sauces and spices and stir. That’s it!

Walk the plank with a grilled salmon dish Chardonnay, riesling

T

rotting your salmon across the board for some delicious cedar smokiness is a quick and easy way to infuse wonderful flavor.

I’ve been on an absolute high of late. Copper River Salmon smoked on a cedar plank — it just doesn’t get much better than that. And because the Copper River salmon season is about to end, we’ve been cedar-planking like crazy. I just can’t seem to get enough!

Like most American households, dinner at our house in the summertime comes from the grill much of the time. My husband is always willing to “man-up” out there, so introducing him to cedar plank smoking seemed like a really smart thing to do. Lucky for me, in just four easy steps, he’s got dinner on the table and I catch a break:

Soak Once you’ve purchased your untreated cedar planks (these are available almost everywhere now — larger supermarkets, gourmet specialty stores, hardware stores, etc.), you’ve got to get them soaking in order to be ready to grill at the designated time. Because we like to soak our planks overnight (or 6-8 hours) to ensure total saturation and no flare-ups on the grill, this technique does require a little bit of planning.

Though I can’t prove it, I’m told that initially soaking the cedar planks in warm water helps the pores of the wood open, so we always start off that way.

It brings me great pleasure to arrive home and find my

roasting pan on the kitchen table, cedar planks soaking, wine bottle perched on top to keep them submerged — all signs of good things coming my way! You can soak your planks in any container that works — the kitchen sink, a bucket fitted with a lid, whatever. The important thing is that you have something heavy on hand to keep the planks submerged.

Boost Here’s where more flavor comes in. Before your salmon can “walk the plank”, you’ve got to prepare the surface. I like to pat ours dry a bit, then liberally coat the top of each plank (we are usually doing at least two) with olive oil, followed by a good sprinkling of kosher salt and freshly ground pepper.

Rub your fillets with your favorite spice blend or marinate ahead. Place your treated planks onto a preheated grill (10 minutes with lid closed does it nicely) over medium/medium-high heat (350400 degrees) for 5 minutes.

You’re ready to begin smoking your salmon on the grill.

Grill Place your salmon onto the prepared planks (skin side down if not skinless), then rub the top of each fillet with your favorite spice blend, or marinate fillets ahead of time in your favorite concoction.

We often baste our salmon with a really flavorful chipotle sauce at this point:

CHIPOTLE GLAZED SALMON 6 tablespoons adobo sauce from a can of chipotle peppers in adobo.

6 tablespoons dark brown sugar Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste 1 Copper Rive r s a l m o n f i l l e t, skinned

Season salmon fillet with salt and pepper to taste. In a small bowl, combine adobo sauce with brown sugar, then baste half of this mixture over fillet.

Place fillet onto soaked cedar plank and grill as instructed below. Just before removing salmon from grill, baste with remaining half of adobo mixture. Serve. ●

Now comes the hard part: close the lid and keep it closed — no peeking. Keeping the grill lid closed ensures you’re capturing the smoke and maintaining the correct temperature inside your grill.

There is no need to turn your fillets — keeping the grill lid closed also ensures your fillets will cook completely.

If you’re cooking over medium-high heat, here are some approximate cooking times: 15 minutes for rare, 20 minutes for medium and 25 minutes for well-done. Cooking times vary with every grill.

Here’s my recommendation: Grill for 18 minutes over medium-high heat, remove planks from grill, cover with foil and let salmon rest for 5 minutes. At this point, check fillets with a fork at center — if fillets are easily flaked with your fork, they’re perfect — it’s time to eat.

As clear as mud? Sorting through vegetable oil claims McClatchy Newspapers

Vegetable oil shelves at the supermarket are crowded with the usual suspects (canola, olive, soybean, safflower, sunflower, peanut, corn, etc.).

But with many sporting “Cholesterol Free,” “0g Trans Fat” and “Natural” on their labels, things can get confusing.

To help translate a few of those terms, we talked with registered dietitian Marisa Moore, an Atlanta-based spokeswoman for the American Dietetic Association.

Q: What does “vegetable

oil” really mean?

A: Most of the time, when you see the term ’vegetable oil,’ it refers to soybean oil. ...

Take a look at the ingredient list and more often than not you’ll see soybean oil listed as the only ingredient. (If) you see a combination of soybean oil plus canola oil or safflower oil, for example, it’s a blend of different plant-based oils.

Q: Why do some labels say “No Cholesterol”? Isn’t it found only in animal products?

A: The goal might be to attract those who are trying to lower their cholesterol who may not understand that

vegetable oil doesn’t naturally have cholesterol in it.

Q: Are there trans fats in vegetable oils?

A: There wouldn’t be trans fats in the liquid vegetable oils. When you get into the solid vegetable oils, the partially hydrogenated ones — such as shortening products — then, yes, you will get trans fats there.

Q: What about “natural”?

Is there a government definition for that?

A: Sometimes the term natural is used as a marketing tool. That may mean they haven’t added anything to it.

Vicious & Delicious!

LOCAL HANDMADE FOOD

Because there’s no set definition, you can’t really tell.

Q: Any last bit of advice?

A: Stick with heart-healthy oils — (such as) olive oil, canola oil, peanut oil. Then look at reducing the amount.

A lot of people don’t realize heart healthy oils help to lower your total cholesterol levels versus saturated ones that increase them.

far too long ago, at L’Auberge de l’Ill, the wonderful restaurant in Illhaeusern, where riesling was as essential an ingredient to the cooking as it was to the drinking.

For an easygoing intro, try the crisp, peachy 2010 Clean Slate Riesling, a $10 bargain from the Mosel region of Germany. Consider it a foil for spicy Asian fare.

The 2002 Domaine Weinbach Riesling Reserve is a ripe, full-bodied, dry Alsatian, ideal with charcuterie, baked ham, smoked fish, even more restrained curries.

About $22. And the 2009 Hugel Riesling Classic, fresh and dry, is instantly enjoyable, solo, with shellfish, maybe a not-too-tangy goat cheese. About $24.

A modest, floral intro to the grape: the 2010 Robert Mondavi Private Selection Riesling, a satisfying, balanced production, for $11.

CHARLIE NOVOGRADAC trims trees and weeds around his grove of chestnut trees on his 20 acres of property in North Lawrence. NovoGradac, a member of Growing Lawrence, has recently attended a group session on direct marketing.

Fully grown ————

Growing Lawrence provides education, networking to new and experienced farmers alike

By Sarah Henning sarah@lawrence.com

It’s been almost 30 years, but just recently Growing Lawrence has blossomed into something out of the ordinary.

No longer just a loose conglomeration of food and plant producers, the organization has branched out to become a sort of educational roundtable on all things farming for both its members and anyone in the general public with an interest in farming.

“They would meet once a year and have a speaker come in and do some networking, but they weren’t meeting all the time,” says Jennifer Smith, a Douglas County KState extension agent and a facilitator for the group of Growing Lawrence’s former structure. “This winter we started talking about getting the group more proactive, especially as younger farmers are starting to get involved. And we got some new people that are coming into the field that we figured could learn a lot from the people who have been around a lot longer.”

Since January, the group has been meeting at 7 a.m. the first Wednesday of each month at the Chamber of Commerce

GROWING LAWRENCE MEETUP What: A meeting of local farmers and farming enthusiasts discussing topics relating to practicing agriculture in Northeast Kansas. The Aug. 3 topic is agritourism.

When: 7 a.m. the first Wednesday of the month Where: Chamber of Commerce offices, 646 Vt. More information: GrowingLawrence.com offices, 646 Vt., to discuss the sorts of issues that come up often in the farming world. That means everything from sharing seed sources and wholesale outlets to talking about insurance and land practices.

The next meeting, open to the public like all the meetings, is Aug. 3.

“To me, at first, it was just advertising, just the directory was the whole thing, but now, just this year, it’s gotten to be more like an organization,” says longtime member Charlie NovoGradac of Chestnut Charlie’s. “There was one on direct marketing through Internet and social networking, that’s all been kind of eye-opening to me. We had an insurance agent Please see GROWING, page 7B

ooking becomes an increasingly arduous task when the heat soars over 100 degrees. I mean, it’s stupid hot. And I’m not really keen on standing over a hot grill, nor am I hip to turning on the oven and heating up the house we are so desperately trying to keep cool without having to take out a second mortgage for electricity bills.

But we love to entertain, and we feel like we’re not getting our money’s worth out of the pool if someone isn’t in it My wallet almost every and my day, and that means coming waistline up with meals. both beg me I can’t order to find a way pizza every to make day, much as I’m tempted something right now. My wallet and my satisfying waistline both that doesn’t beg me to find come with a a way to make delivery boy something satattached to isfying that one end.” doesn’t come with a delivery boy attached to one end.

We were hosting two couples last week and I talked Mr. Meat and Potatoes into manning the grill (not only am I a notoriously bad griller, but it’s too hot for me to handle) while I prepared a few cooler items inside. Our friends contributed a few things, and we had ourselves a little Asian-themed poolside meal that I’ve been thinking naughty thoughts about regularly ever since.

I purchase a giant fresh salmon fillet, perfect to cut into six good-sized pieces, and prepared it for grilling. First, I sprayed both sides with cooking spray so as not to let things stick so much to the hot grill.

Then I mixed up a simple marinade of 1 1/2 cups of soy sauce and 2 tablespoons wasabi paste.

I whisked those together and poured them over the salmon on a tray with a lip, and then liberally sprinkled the tops with brown sugar. That sugar caramelizes on the grill and creates a crust that will make your eyes roll back in your head.

While those soaked, I started on some lettuce wraps. Lettuce wraps are lovely for hot days and especially for entertaining.

I don’t worry about serving the filling hot, so it’s easy to do in advance and is a nice “not hot” dish to serve outdoors.

I had some vegetarian guests and some carnivores, so I made lettuce wraps for both. The recipe is the same for both, I just used ground pork for the meat eaters and I used a bag of frozen vegetarian soy crumbles

Often, kids are attracted to what seems most outrageous to their families. Perhaps if you stop fighting her, Tammi will have less to rebel against. Welcome this man into your family as best you can, and let Tammi see him in context. She may decide he’s not so outrageous after all. Or you might decide he’s not as terrible a choice as you originally feared.

Dear Annie: Our son divorced after almost 21 years of marriage. The marriage was never particularly happy.

As the mother of our two wonderful grandchildren, we want our former daughter-inlaw to remain part of our lives.

Our son is engaged and is planning to marry next year.

Marcy Sugar and Kathy Mitchell

Former musician explains origins of everything Imagine a mind-blowing science series hosted by a handsome former pop starturned-physicist and you've come up with Brian Cox's "Wonders of the Universe" (8 p.m., Science). It's a heady trip he's invited us to join, a voyage to rival Carl Sagan's "Cosmos." And he's even outdone Sagan in one regard: While Sagan became best known for the catchphrase "billions and billions," the hyperkinetic Cox likes to throw around "trillions."

The trillions he's discussing are, of course, atoms and tiny molecules of the 92 elements that make up all of matter — including us. But where does that matter come from? And when was it created? Cox presides over his series like an evangelist for physics and chemistry. With the periodic table as his bible.

The origin of all elements and life itself, he explains with reverent enthusiasm, can be found in the stars. Make that, in the death of stars. Stars and suns much greater than our own operate for billions of years on pretty basic fusion involving mostly the two most simple elements, hydrogen and helium. But when they run out of gas, literally — and expand, explode and collapse upon themselves in a repetitive death spiral lasting millions of years — they create incredible heat that fuses the more complex elements. And valuable elements, like gold, are forged only in the rarest of cosmic events — supernovas. Perhaps Joni Mitchell was on to something in her song "Woodstock." We are stardust.

To illustrate these complex notions, Cox borrows from ancient religion and visits a shrine in Nepal dedicated to Shiva, the destroyer god, and the belief that all existence is a cycle of creation and destruction. To make the implosion of stars seem more dramatic, he enters a prison in Brazil slated for demolition. But the most dramatic element of "Wonders" is Cox himself, a natural showman and a polished teacher with an infectious enthusiasm for his subject. Over the next three weeks, Cox holds court on the origins of consciousness, the force of gravity and the nature of light. Highly recommended. ● Speaking of exploding stars in destructive acts of creation, "True Hollywood Story" (9 p.m., E!) profiles Snooki of "Jersey Shore" fame.

Tonight’s other highlights ● The eight finalists compete on a twohour helping of "So You Think You Can Dance" (7 p.m., Fox). ● A familiar face at the track on "Royal Pains" (8 p.m., USA). ● A new family room is set up for Nancy O'Dell on "Hollywood Hi-Tech" (8:30 p.m., DIY). ● Patty hunts for her missing son on "Damages" (9 p.m., Audience Network, Direct TV). ● Facial tics will tell on "Necessary Roughness" (9 p.m., USA). ● Tommy makes himself useful on "Rescue Me" (9 p.m., FX). ● Victoria's daughter visits on "Hot in Cleveland" (9 p.m., TV Land).

Cult choice Newcomers from space face a difficult assimilation in the 1988 sci-fi drama "Alien Nation" (7 p.m., Reelz), starring James Caan, Mandy Patinkin and Terence Stamp.

This would later inspire the series on the brand-new Fox Network.

Dear Annie: My granddaughter, “Tammi,” graduated high school at the end of May. She has been working at a pet store since last fall. This was her first real job, and she was both elated and proud.

When I visited over the Christmas holidays, she took me to the store to meet her boss and the other teen employees. Tammi told me the boss had discussed the store’s finances with her, that he didn’t love his wife any longer, that he was getting a divorce, and on and on. I told her this is not something a 34year-old employer would be sharing with an 18-year-old female employee unless he had an ulterior motive.

The day after her 19th birthday, Tammi left home and moved in with her boss, who is now divorced and shares custody of his 4-year-old child. She is absolutely enthralled with this guy, who is four years younger than her father. Our family is just sick over this. We’ve all tried talking to her, but she won’t listen.

She said we should lighten up and that her friends are all OK with it. I know for a fact that her best friend doesn’t like this fellow and says he’s mean to Tammi.

My granddaughter says she’s an adult and can do whatever she wants. How can we make her realize that this
