Hurricane helps avert total crop disaster here

By Adam Strunk

astrunk@ljworld.com

Hurricane Isaac left a wake of destruction across the South, but it may have saved Douglas County’s soybean crop.

The leftovers of the storm and the cool, wet weather cycle that followed have some area farmers dusting off the combine instead of the mower.

“If we’d have had a few more weeks of hot, dry weather, a lot of the beans would have been baled,” said Matthew Vajnar, Ottawa Co-op grain merchandiser. “We were looking at a potential disaster mid-August.”

Vajnar thought area soybeans would now yield 10 to 15 bushels per acre. It’s far below an average crop, which would make 30 to 35 bushels per acre, but after this summer, area farmers will take it.

KANSAS UNIVERSITY STUDENT COLBY LISTON, 18, sits with his father, Matt Liston, during an interview Sept. 10 at his home in Derby. Colby lost both of his legs below the knee after being pinned between two vehicles during an accident Aug. 26 on Tennessee Street. Colby says he is remaining positive and looking forward to being fitted for prosthetic legs.

Officials want Just weeks after losing both of his legs, better education KU student embracing new challenges coordination

Colby Liston, an 18-yearold Kansas University student from Derby, lights up when asked about some early research he’s done on prosthetic legs.

Such as learning about micro-processor knee joints that act like a “computer” in your knee, Liston explained.

Colby was just a week into his first semester at KU, majoring in petroleum engineering, when the accident happened. He’d been planning on walking onto the KU track and field team.

“It’s pretty cool stuff,” he said.

Two weeks after both of Liston’s legs were severed in a car accident in Lawrence, he’s back at home. A little bored, he admits. Antsy. But adjusting to a life without legs? No big deal.

“It didn’t take long at all,” said Liston, with a shrug. “It’s a lot easier to sit here and say ‘in five weeks I’ll be walking,’ instead of ‘I’ll be in a wheelchair for five weeks.”

‘The call’ At their Derby home,

Colby’s dad, Matt Liston, a veteran member of the Derby Police Department, talks about “the call” in the early-morning hours of Aug. 26.

Colby’s brother, Tyson, who plays football at Missouri Western State University, called Matt after hearing about the accident from someone who was with Colby at the time. “‘I’m heading to LawPlease see STUDENT, page 2A

TOPEKA — State officials want to revive a group to work on ways to better align education from pre-kindergarten through college.

In meetings of the Kansas Board of Regents and State Board of Education, members have said there is a need for the state to continue improving coordination of all aspects of education and training.

On Thursday, the Board of Regents, during its monthly meeting, is expected to approve a set of goals that includes working to establish an Education System Coordinating Council.

Under the proposal, the council will be composed of two Board of Regents members, two members of the State Board of Education, the commissioner of education and the chief executive officer of the regents.

The council will identify one to three projects per year aimed at improving integration of the education system between pre-kinderSCHOOLS garten and higher education.

A similar effort was made in 2008 by executive order from then-Gov. Kathleen Sebelius.

That order established the Kansas P-20 Education Council, which issued its final report just days after Gov. Sam Brownback took office in January 2011.

The P-20 Council had 22 members representing education and the business community. Its final report recommended strengthening early-childhood education and exploring ways to align education sectors.

At a recent meeting of the Legislative Educational Planning Committee, legislators said they would like coordinating efforts to continue.

“I don’t want to lose that,” said state Rep. Steve Huebert, R-Valley Center.

Regents President and CEO Andy Tompkins said the way the Education System Coordinating Council is proposed may make it easier to keep it going.

L AWRENCE J OURNAL -W ORLD

Mission mulls ban on hand-held phones MISSION (AP) — A Kansas City suburb has been considering a ban on drivers using hand-held cellphones.

A proposed ordinance under consideration in the Johnson County suburb of Mission would allow people to talk on handsfree cellphones. But police would be able to pull over drivers who are holding phones within about 8 inches of their heads.

The ordinance is before the Mission City Council’s finance and administration committee and will come up for discussion, possibly in November.

City officials said they anticipate a lot of feedback from residents based on the number of calls they received when the idea first came up last month.

“A couple of my friends told me I was walking into a hornet’s nest,” said Police Chief John Simmons, who introduced the measure to the council.

So far, 10 states and the District of Columbia have banned talking on handheld cellphones. Kansas is among 39 states that ban texting while driving.

The only city in Kansas to ban cellphones for drivers is Manhattan. Brad Schoen, the director of the Manhattan and Riley County Police Department, said the city banned using electronics while driving because so many people seemed to be using them, creating safety concerns.

“I think it is a lot bigger problem than people realized,” said Pat Quinn, a Mission city councilman. “I definitely think we could save some lives and property damage and injuries by making that illegal.”

Mayor Laura McConwell said the council recognizes the safety issues but that it needed to have “a much broader conversation before we move forward.”

THE 18 CASTAWAYS are set to compete in “Survivor: Philippines” when the 25th installment of the Emmy Award-winning reality series premieres with a special 90-minute edition on Wednesday on CBS. Carter Williams, of Shawnee, back right, will be among them.

contestants face a lot.

According to Carter, his mother was among the first cross-country coaches to incorporate CrossFit training into her training regimens. She and his father, Price Williams, work out regularly at Solution 1 CrossFit, and Carter has been using CrossFit sessions as part of his training since he was a senior at Biola.

There, he discovered that actually running less while mixing in CrossFit training improved his strength and times, earning him a trip to the NAIA nationals in the steeplechase event.

After graduating from college, Carter continued his CrossFit training at Boot Camp Fitness in Prairie Village. A longtime “Survivor” fan, he’d been telling his mother for years that she should submit an audition video for the show. But she never did, and when Carter finally decided to take a shot himself, he resumed CrossFit “to become an all-around athlete, with a lot of strengths and no weaknesses,” he said.

Price Williams, a longtime distance runner and triathlete, said all three of his children had inherited their parents’ athleticism. Carter’s sister, Keegan, was a three-time class 2A state pole vault champion (2008, 2009 and 2010) while at Maranatha.

Carter, who has assisted in sales at Harvest Graphics, a Lenexa firm Price Williams owns, also inherited a strong work ethic, his father said. And somewhere along the way, he acquired a little Hollywood to complete the package.

The “Survivor” producers loved the audition video Carter sent them last fall, his father explained.

He didn’t do great on a

subsequent phone interview, he said, but the producers told Carter to make and send them another video, and that helped seal his selection.

Shot at Lake of the Forest in Bonner Springs, the second video featured Carter running through woods, climbing trees and paddling across a lake.

“The producers said, ‘You look like a real-life Tarzan,’” Kuchta said last week.

But Kuchta knew nothing about Carter’s “Survivor” exploits when he came in to Solution 1 to inquire about a coaching position after returning from the Philippines.

“His father had said, ‘I really want you to meet my son. He’s been out of town for a while,’” Kuchta recalled. “And it wasn’t until Carter’s first or second workout here that he shared that with me. I was like, ‘Holy crap.’”

Prior to that time, Kuchta had told Carter that before either of them made a decision about his joining the Solution 1 coaching staff, Carter should start training there and see if their visions meshed.

They did, he said, adding that Carter is scheduled to earn his level 1 CrossFit coaching certification this week.

Asked if he thought Carter’s celebrity would help business, Kuchta said, “I don’t know. He might turn out to be the villain on the show.”

He was kidding.

“Carter is a combination of laid-back, competitive and outgoing, if that makes any sense,” Kuchta said. “He’s very personable. He likes to make people feel included, which probably helped him on ‘Survivor,’ and he keeps the beginners motivated. He’s also part of a really cool family, so full of life and zest.”

Now that family is about to expand.

Shortly after returning from the “Survivor” taping, Carter became en-

gaged to Faith Manning, a 2009 Maranatha graduate and fellow distance runner whose mother, Suzy Manning, coaches junior high track and cross-country at the school.

Now, Marantha athletic director Dave Keener said, the whole school is looking forward with keen interest to the televised exploits that Carter is looking back on but can’t talk about.

Hosted, as always, by Jeff Probst, this season’s series will include some twists, including a threetribe format to change up the alliance strategies.

The show also will feature the return of three former castaways who had to be medically evacuated during previous “Survivor” competitions.

The remaining 15 contestants include former Major League Baseball MVP Jeff Kent and “Facts of Life” TV series star Lisa Whelchel.

And then there is Carter Williams, who is described on a promotional website as the “dude with a faux hawk.”

“As far as my hairstyle,” he says in a video promoting the series, “you’d have to talk to my hair stylist, my girlfriend. She pretty much has free rein with my hair.”

In another promotional piece, Williams talks about a more serious matter: what he would do with the $1 million if he were the winner.

He’d love to start a CrossFit gym and involve his family, he answered.

Two years ago, 3-year-old Bella Bryan got her first dose of agricultural education when her day care center became involved in the Farm to Child Care program.

The Douglas County Childhood Development Association’s program aims to encourage healthy eating habits and choices by working with local farmers, families and child care providers to increase food education and access to local produce through children’s gardens.

Charlie Bryan said the initial exposure to gardening piqued his daughter’s interest and since then the Bryan family has purchased plots through the Lawrence Community Garden Project and has planted a garden at their home.

The new garden enthusiasts were among about 130

Vehicles wrapped around the Free State High School parking lot Sunday afternoon as needy Douglas County families waited for hours to receive free meals as part of the United Way Great Start Pack, which served as the United Way 2012 Annual Campaign Kickoff.

United Way President and CEO Erika Dvorske said the agency wanted to make the kickoff celebration more of a service event.

“We wanted to bring both the resources in the community and the needs and match them up to address them,” Dvorske said.

More than 400 volunteers signed up through United Way to help package food, direct cars and hand out meals with Just Food, a local food bank, during the threehour giveaway.

Volunteers packed 40,000 meals to give to low-income residents of Douglas County and distributed 15,000 of the meals to about 600 families.

Some families lined up at 11 a.m. and waited as long as four hours to get the packaged food.

“It was a reminder that this is important and people need help,” Dvorske said.

local families who attended the Fall Harvest Festival on the open grounds of Pendleton’s Country Market, 1446 E. 1850 Road, on Sunday evening. Under cloudy skies and what felt like fall weather, the festival served as the culmination of the two-year program.

“I think it (the program) is great, and it’s made a big difference,” Bryan said.

“Farm to Child Care” participants were spread about the east Lawrence farm decorating crafts, going on hayrides and eating local foods as part of the potluck dinner.

Event co-organizer Emily Hampton, DCCDA Food Systems coordinator, said she saw many familiar faces and was pleased with the turnout, which matched last year’s attendance.

“It’s fun to have a time to celebrate and see the kids out playing at a farm,” Hampton said. “To see everything all come together about food and gardening: That’s the highlight for me.”

In its second year at the same location, the threehour event also featured

Meals included soyprotein infused macaroni and cheese, as well as donated items like sweet potatoes, tomatoes and canned foods. The leftover meals will be distributed to Just Food’s 42 partner organizations.

“There are people who didn’t know what they were going to eat tonight who are going to go home and eat what we packed today,” Just Food CEO Jeremy Farmer said.

United Way focuses on three areas in the community: education, health and self-sufficiency, and not going hungry contributes to success in each area.

Dvorske said improvement in these areas is impossible without the community and that all people have some amount of time, energy or money to contribute to those in need.

“If we (the community) are going to do this, it’s going to take all of us, and everyone’s got something to give,” Dvorske said.

The goal: $1.8M Douglas County United Way made a goal of raising $1.8 million this year, which is $100,000 more than the campaign raised last year.

“It will be a challenge to achieve, but we believe that the community steps up when the need is great,” Dvorske said.

Lawrence resident Sarah Hoskinson brought her three daughters — Abby, 5, Lexi, 2, and Izzy, 1 — out to the festival for the first time. Both Lexi and Izzy help with gardens at their child care centers, Hoskinson said.

The program is great, she said, and serves as an extension of what her family already practices.

This year, the Farm to Child Care program doubled and in some cases tripled participation, reaching about 950 children at 27 in-home providers and

nine child-care centers.

Organizer Ashley Graff, DCCDA Food Systems educator, said it’s imperative to expose children to natural produce while their tastes and preferences are developing.

“The obesity crisis is booming, and it’s scary,” Graff said. “That’s what we are working against.”

Implemented in 2011, DCCDA received a $100,000 grant from the Untied Methodist Health Ministry to fund the program.

‘Drivers’ needed for New York School’s Walking School Bus Staff Reports

Agency: LawrenceDouglas County Housing Authority Contact: Mary Orem at 785-331-4418 or morem@ ldcha.org The Lawrence-Douglas County Housing Authority is in need of several volunteers for the New York School’s Walking School Bus. A Walking School Bus, or WSB, is a group of students, with adult supervision, who walk along a set route between school and their homes; it is a fun, healthy and simple alternative to motorized transportation.

The New York School’s WSB calls on parents and community members to be volunteer “drivers” and supervise children on their afternoon walk home from school. Volunteers are needed all days school is in session, from 2:45 p.m. to 4:15 p.m., except Wednesdays. Ideally, volunteers will be able to commit to “driving” the WSB one day a week for at least a semester. All volunteers will fill out an application, undergo a background check and be trained before starting. For more information, please contact Mary Orem at 785-331-4418 or morem@ldcha.org.

Immediate needs ! The Afternoon Tea is seeking volunteer servers for their upcoming “Afternoon Tea for Honored Citizens” on Sept. 25. The Afternoon Tea is a group dedicated to providing lively social opportunities for local “honored citizens,” who are community members ages 55 and up, by putting on events with live entertainment by groups such as Theatre Lawrence, while guests enjoy tea, treats and each other’s company. The Afternoon Tea on Sept.

25 will be at First United Methodist Church, and several volunteers are needed to help run the event smoothly and create an atmosphere of fun and camaraderie for the honored citizens who attend.

To offer your help, please contact Brian or Kirsty at lawrenceafternoontea@ yahoo.com. !" Kennedy School is looking for volunteers to help with a variety of things to support students. You can volunteer from home to plug in content and design a monthly newsletter for the school community, or you can help update content and upload newsletters to the school website from home. Have a green thumb? Volunteer gardeners are needed to spruce up the schools’ courtyards, and to help teach students how they can maintain flower, fruit, and vegetable gardens. Are you particularly crafty?

Volunteers to help with set design and costuming are needed for an upcoming production Oct. 22, as well as more dates throughout the school year. Other opportunities include providing child care during monthly PTO meetings, supervising and cheering on students in weekly Marathon Club runs, and helping to manage the Kennedy Store for students to spend their earned “Kennedy Dollars” throughout the year.

Please note that all volunteers working directly with students will need to have a background check

and orientation. Please contact Brooke Miller at 785-330-1656 or brooke@ cisnortheastkansas.org for more information. !"

Q:

Workers recently painted bicycle lane symbols on the newly resurfaced portion of Monterey Way near my home.

The street appears to be too narrow for a bicycle lane on both sides and two lanes of traffic. What guidelines should motorists and bicyclists follow when traveling on roads that are marked like this?

A:

The pavement marking on that street does not indicate a bicycle lane; rather it indicates a bicycle route and that motorists and bicyclists are to share the road, according to Megan Gilliland, the city’s communications manager.

Afghan police attack kills 4 U.S. soldiers

CHICAGO — Chicago teachers uncomfortable with a tentative contract offer decided Sunday to remain on strike, insisting they need more time before deciding whether to end an acrimonious standoff with Mayor Rahm Emanuel that will keep 350,000 students out of class for at least two more days.

Emanuel fired back Sunday night by instructing city attorneys to seek a court order forcing Chicago Teachers Union members back into the classroom.

Teachers had only a few hours to review a summary of a proposed settlement worked out over the weekend with officials from the nation’s third largest school district. That wasn’t enough time, they said, to digest a complicated contract that addresses two issues central to the debate over the future of public education across the United States: teacher evaluations and job security.

The union will meet again Tuesday, after the end of Rosh Hashana, the Jewish new year.

Clash in Pakistan leaves 1 dead

By Adil Jawad and Bassem Mroue Associated Press

KARACHI, PAKISTAN — Hundreds of Pakistanis protesting an anti-Islam film broke through a barricade near the U.S. Consulate in the southern city of Karachi on Sunday, sparking clashes with police in which one demonstrator was killed and more than a dozen injured.

In a move that could escalate tensions around the Arab world, the leader of the Hezbollah militant group called for protests against the movie, saying protesters should not only “express our anger” at U.S. embassies but urge leaders to act.

The film, which denigrates Islam’s Prophet Muhammad, has sparked violent protests in many Muslim countries in recent days, including one in Libya in which the U.S. ambassador was killed.

The U.S. has responded by deploying additional military forces to increase security in certain hotspots.

In a televised speech, Hezbollah leader Sheik Hassan Nasrallah said the U.S. must be held accountable for the film, which was produced in the United States. The U.S. government has condemned the film.

“The ones who should be held accountable and boycotted are those who support and protect the producers, namely the U.S. administration,” Nasrallah said. He called for protests today, Wednesday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

He urged protesters to call on their leaders to express their anger too.

“We should not only ex-

press our anger at an American embassy here or there.

We should tell our rulers in the Arab and Muslim world that it is ‘your responsibility in the first place’ and since you officially represent the governments and states of the Muslim world you should impose on the United States, Europe and the whole world that our prophet, our Quran and our holy places and honor of our Prophet be respected,” he told his followers in a televised speech.

Nasrallah said he waited to speak out about the film until Sunday, when Pope Benedict XVI ended his three-day trip to Lebanon.

In Pakistan, police fired tear gas and water cannons at the protesters in Karachi after they broke through the barricade and reached the outer wall of the U.S. Consulate, police officer Mohammad Ranjha said. The protesters threw stones and bricks, prompting the police to beat back the crowd with their batons. The police and private security guards outside the consulate also fired in the air to disperse the crowd.

One protester was killed during the clash, said Ali Ahmar, spokesman for the Shiite Muslim group that organized the rally.

An official with the main ambulance service in the city, Khurram Ahmad, confirmed they carried away one dead protester and 18 others who were injured.

All Americans who work at the consulate, which is located in the heart of Karachi, were safe, Rian Harris, a spokeswoman for the U.S. Embassy in Islamabad, said.

KABUL, AFGHANISTAN — Afghan police killed four American soldiers coming to their aid after a checkpoint attack Sunday, the third assault by government forces or insurgents disguised in military uniforms in as many days.

The escalating violence — including a NATO airstrike that killed eight Afghan women and girls gathering firewood — is straining the military partnership between Kabul and NATO as the U.S. begins to withdraw thousands of troops sent three years ago to route the Taliban from southern strongholds.

The attacks drew unusually strong criticism Sunday from the U.S. military’s top officer, Army Gen. Martin Dempsey, who called the problem of rogue Afghan soldiers and police turning their guns on allied troops “a very serious threat” to the war effort.

Campaign bypasses one-party states

EDITORIALS

Let it go The efforts of some Kansas officials to belabor the issue of President Obama’s citizenship reflect poorly on the state.

T

he issue of President Barack Obama’s citizenship has been settled, and the decision of Kansas officials to try to keep it alive was both a waste of time and an embarrassment to the state.

Last week, the State Objections Board heard several ballot challenges, including one from a Manhattan resident who claimed Obama was not eligible to be president because his father was from Kenya and not an American citizen. He based his claim that both of Obama’s parents had to be citizens in order for Obama to be a citizen on U.S. Supreme Court cases, some of them more than 100 years old.

The members of the state board are Secretary of State Kris Kobach, Attorney General Derek Schmidt and Lt. Gov. Jeff Colyer. The two attorneys on the board — Kobach and Schmidt — dismissed the legal basis for the claim saying the Manhattan resident was “trying to read too much into” the court cases.

At that point, it would have been logical to simply deny the objection and move on. Instead, the board decided to delay its decision until today while asking for additional documentation certifying Obama’s birth certificate. They indicated they wanted the state to have its own certified documents from the state of Hawaii. This is in spite of the fact that Obama already has made such a document public, and that the U.S. Supreme Court has refused to even hear an appeal challenging the president’s U.S. citizenship.

On Friday, the Manhattan man dropped his objection to Obama being on the state’s November ballot.

Without the objection, Kobach said, there was no possibility the board would take Obama’s name off the ballot, but the board still would meet today to close the case and add whatever additional information is available to the record.

Hopefully, that is the end of this matter and state officials now can get on to more important business. Belaboring this issue only makes the state and some of its top elected officials look silly.

OXFORD, MISS. — The shops on the square are mobbed (the monogramming machines are working overtime), the famous Grove is full of tailgaters (the tang of barbecue is in the breeze, along with the scent of limes sliced for scores of plastic cups of gin and tonic), and before long the stadium is full of revelers (cheering on Ole Miss in an ancient gridiron ritual).

Only one element of a classic fall is missing here in Mississippi this year. There’s no presidential campaign.

Exactly a half-century since one of the most defining battles in America’s past — the forced admission of a black student, James Meredith, into the University of Mississippi — the struggle to define the future of America is being fought elsewhere.

Technically, of course, there’s an election on, and in seven weeks voters here will choose between President Barack Obama and former Gov. Mitt Romney, just as they will everyplace else. But here, this is an election without a campaign. The only one who argues the contrary is Ebbie Spivey, and she couldn’t pass a lie-detector test — in fact she can’t stop chuckling — when she says the race is close, really and truly it is.

“Don’t tell anyone we’re going to win this,” the woman who served as state Republican chair during the Reagan administration tells an outof-state visitor. “We’ve got to keep our people energized.

Say it’s a lot closer than people think.”

Electoral slight But it isn’t. And though it doesn’t have a campaign, Mississippi this fall represents two important stories, both critical to understanding our political culture and the choice we are about to make.

The first is that the Electoral College converts the American electorate into an Orwellian animal farm, where some states are more equal than others. There’s a real campaign in Ohio, Florida, Virginia, Colorado, Iowa and

but that doesn’t mean it’s unimportant or unremarkable.

It is quite the opposite.

For 18 consecutive elections — every presidential contest between the election of Rutherford B. Hayes in 1876 and the final re-election of Franklin Delano Roosevelt in 1944 — Mississippi was a reliably dshribman@post-gazette.com Democratic redoubt. In 1940, the Democratic margin was 96 percent, which stretches the … the Electoral definition of definitive.

College converts the That Democratic domiAmerican electorate nance was deep, but it wasn’t into an Orwellian permanent, and for the last eight consecutive elections animal farm, where — between the election of some states are more Ronald Reagan in 1980 and equal than others.”

The candidates will compete there vigorously, the Switch in the South That switch is at the cenvoters will be courted assiduously, the level of passion will ter of the political character of the contemporary United rise proportionately.

of the party’s ties to the Old Confederacy, while Southern blacks voted Republican because of the party’s ties to Abraham Lincoln and emancipation. Many complex factors changed that — principally Lyndon Johnson’s embrace of voting rights for blacks and Nixon’s Southern Strategy capitalizing on uneasiness about the Democratic Party — but now the conversion is complete, and the Republicans’ domination is complete as well.

A one-party state “We used to campaign on creating a two-party system here in Mississippi,” says Clarke Reed, the second GOP state chair in modern times and regarded as the founding father of the modern GOP here. “We’re not so sure anymore about a two-party system now that it’s a one-party state and we’re the one party.”

So dominant are the Republicans that Reed and former Gov. Haley Barbour, a onetime GOP national party chairman, have been asked to concentrate their political activities outside of Mississippi. “It’s hard,” Reed says, “to convince people we Republicans have a problem in Mississippi.”

They don’t. The Democrats held the governor’s chair for 116 consecutive years, contributing Theodore G. Bilbo and Ross R. Barnett to the dishonor roll of segregation. The Democrats also held both Senate seats for 98 consecutive years, which is why American history remembers James O. Eastland and John C. Stennis. But Republicans have held both seats since 1989, which is why mammoth buildings at Ole Miss are named for Sen. Thad Cochran and former Sen. Trent Lott.

There is nothing happening campaign-wise in Mississippi, and much of the South, all tinted red this fall. But that does not mean that Mississippi and the South are not important. It means the opposite.

Loving message

harm can it do? And it is a way of honoring the ones that did not have that chance: To the editor: the victims of 9-11.

On Tuesday, Sept. 11, as Jean Dreiling, I drove around Lawrence, Lawrence from one job to another and running errands, I noticed all of the flags at half staff.

It made me sad. It also reminded me of how important To the editor: I experienced an interestit is for those that we love and care about to be told ing and painful coincidence that they are loved and cared this summer that illustrates the control wielded over us about by you.

Those victims on 9-11-2001 middle classers by a powerful had no chance of saying to insurance industry and a contheir loved ones how much servative state government.

First, I received a letter they loved and cared about from my long-term health them.

So I would ask that every- care insurance carrier notifyone call and tell those that ing me that the premium for they care and love most in my present level of coverage their lives to tell them so. was increasing 72 percent!

You never know when some- Not 20 or 30, but 72 percent! thing tragic can happen to The explanation was that their you or someone you love. So analysts had not anticipated it is important to tell them so. the fact that people are living Please on 9-11 every year, longer and medical costs are call someone and tell them increasing. So because of their how much you love and care commitment and obligation to about them. After all, what me, the insured, this increase

Premium shock

was necessary. So they were actually doing me a favor! (I’m paraphrasing, but this was the tone.) Since I have 15 years’ worth of premiums invested in this insurance, what could I do?

Just a few weeks later, I read that Gov. Brownback’s tax overhaul will no longer allow the expense of long-term health care insurance premiums as a deduction for state income tax purposes. As one of those fixed-income seniors, this double whammy to my pocketbook means a realignment of my budget, eliminating one or two charities that I choose to regularly support.

This is one good example of how doing the right thing by trying to provide for myself as I age has absolutely no significance to an insurance company or a state’s conservative agenda. The wealthy get richer, and the middle class and poor bite the bullet.

Downtown Lawrence buildings became lakefront property this YEARS week after a 12AGO inch water pipeIN 1972 line burst during an ongoing renovation project. Although the break was repaired in about 20 minutes, enough water had escaped to create a small lake several feet deep in front of the old First National Bank building [now Tellers] at Eighth and Massachusetts.

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for Sept. 17, 1912: YEARS “Arthur St. AGO Leger Mosse is IN 1912 still somewhat of an athlete even though it has been a number of years since he took part in a contest. Yesterday afternoon the coach accepted the challenge of his assistant, Leonard Frank, to a 100 yard dash on the McCook Field track and the way the big coach heeled it off on those cinders made Coach Hamilton sit up and take notice. The track coach may even endeavor to use his find in the daisies next spring. Leonard Frank finished second in the race.”

Upset NIU? You bet Upsets happen when a football team feels disrespected. They happen when an underdog realizes what it does well and has the confidence to do it repeatedly, stubbornly believing it will work.

No reason Kansas University should not pull off the upset Saturday in DeKalb, Ill., against a Northern Illinois squad favored by 10 points. A Mid-American Conference team isn’t supposed to be favored by a touchdown and field goal against a Big 12 squad, but that’s where the betting line opened, the oddsmakers not-so gently slapping the Jayhawks across the face.

The Huskies, coached by former Mark Mangino assistant Dave Doeren, whose desire for the KU job after Turner Gill’s firing was unrequited, are coming off a 41-40 victory against Army in West Point, N.Y. Army pretty much blows off the forward pass, attempting just three against NIU. The Black Knights, pummeled 42-7 by San Diego State in the opening week of the season, didn’t need the forward pass to score six touchdowns. The Northern Illinois defense allowed 486 rushing yards in that one.

In leading Iowa to a Week 1, 18-17 victory against Northern Illinois, Damon Bullock rushed for 150 yards.

The KU offensive line has the strength to get the better of the NIU defense and consistently open rushing lanes for big-play back Tony Pierson, relentless Taylor Cox and returning James Sims, the team’s leading rusher the past two seasons.

Running the football is what Kansas does best offensively, and creating turnovers is the strength of the defense. KU, Alabama and Mississippi State all have a national-best 12 turnovers gained. The Crimson Tide and Bulldogs are a combined 6-0. KU is 1-2 because its offense hasn’t clicked, particularly in the red zone.

Look for that to change Saturday and look for nevershy Charlie Weis to throw some different twists into the running game. He calls his Wildcat offense the Jayhawk, for obvious reasons, and hasn’t shown much of it yet. Nobody should be surprised if Pierson and Sims take direct snaps now and then, with quarterback Dayne Crist watching some plays from the sideline.

Army dared Northern Illinois to stop the run, and Kansas can do the same. The difference: KU can build toward a play-action pass home run or two with Crist finding Daymond Patterson or Andrew Turzilli open down the field.

The Huskies’ rush defense ranks 115th out of 124 Football Bowl Subdivision teams, allowing 229.3 yards per game.

Pounding Cox, Sims and Pierson all day also keeps NIU quarterback Jordan Lynch off the field. Lynch ranks 19th in the nation with 304.7 yards in total offense, a third of it coming on the ground, the rest through the air.

The Huskies make for a tough opponent, but there is no reason to believe Kansas can’t be tougher.

K.C. takes a spill

BUFFALO’S DORIN DICKERSON (42) RUNS UNDER PRESSURE from Kansas City’s Eric Berry (29) and Abram Elam during the first half.

The Bills won, 35-17, Sunday in Orchard Park, N.Y.

Spiller sparks Bills to 35-17 rout ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (AP) — C.J. Spiller gladly accepted Fred Jackson’s challenge.

And this time, the rest of the Bills — on offense, defense and special teams — showed up to support Spiller who scored twice and finished with 123 yards rushing to spark a 35-17 win over the Kansas City Chiefs in Buffalo’s home opener. It was a much better effort than how Buffalo opened the season with a bumbling 48-28 loss to the New York Jets last week.

The same can’t be said for the Chiefs, who followed up one dud with another a week after opening the season with a 40-24 loss to Atlanta.

Spiller picked up where he left off a week earlier, after

he had career-best 169 yards rushing in taking over after Jackson sprained his right knee against the Jets.

“It’s always better to answer the questions when you win,” said Spiller, who giggled several times at the podium.

“Fred Jackson challenged me today, when he told me to put the team on my back. So when that comes down from the leader in our room, you have to step your game up. I was ready to go today.”

With Jackson expected to miss another three weeks, Spiller scored on 17- and 5-yard runs to put the Bills ahead 14-0 early in the second quarter, a lead that would balloon to 35-3 late in the third.

“C.J.’s a stud. That kid can run,” Bills center Eric Wood said. “We’ve got plenty of weapons, and the good thing is we’re going to get Fred back.”

With 292 yards on 29 carries, Spiller is off to such a hot start that he’s averaging 10.1 yards per rush. That’s the highest average by an NFL player with a minimum of 25 carries through the first two games of a season since 1963, when Jim Brown averaged 11.3 yards (34 carries for 394 yards).

The Bills’ defense finally showed signs of its highpriced potential after failing to make a dent last week against the Jets.

Kyle Williams had two of

Buffalo’s five sacks. Mario Williams — the team’s highprized offseason free agent — recovered quarterback Matt Cassel’s fumble, which set up Scott Chandler’s 10-yard touchdown catch.

And linebacker Nick Barnett had a momentum-turning play late in the first half.

That’s when he forced Kansas City running back Peyton Hillis to fumble at the goal line to preserve Buffalo’s 21-0 lead.

“We had a sense of urgency. It was just different from the very beginning,” Mario Williams said. “We went out there and put it all on the line. Unfortunately, that Please see CHIEFS, page 3B

SEVERAL JAYHAWKS POUNCE ON A RICE FUMBLE in KU’s Week 2 loss to the Owls. With four more takeaways Saturday against TCU, the Jayhawks have 12 on the season.

KU tied for turnover lead

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

Anyone needing proof that the Kansas University football team’s defense has taken a step forward from the woeful performances that were common during the past couple of seasons need look no further than the company the Jayhawks keep in total turnovers.

The Jayhawks (1-2 overall, 0-1 Big 12) lead the na-

tion with 12 turnovers gained through three games and sit in a first-place tie with topranked Alabama and 23rdranked Mississippi State — both 3-0.

“That was the second thing I talked about with the team today,” KU coach Charlie Weis said Sunday night.

“The first thing was playing hard for 60 minutes. After how hard they played, the turnovers were, by far, the next greatest positive.”

During Saturday’s 20-6 loss to No. 16 TCU, the Jayhawks forced four turnovers — all fumbles — and, for the third straight game, finished even or ahead in the turnover battle. The Jayhawks, however, are just 1-1 this season in games in which they have finished with more takeaways.

“It’s very unusual to win the turnover ratio 4-to-2 and Please see FOOTBALL, page 3B

KANSAS CITY, MO. (AP) — The Los Angeles bullpen had no room for error the final 31⁄3 innings Sunday. The Angels also have no margin for error in the final 15 games of the season if they hope to make the playoffs.

Mark Trumbo hit a three-run homer and Dan Haren pitched effectively into the sixth inning as the Angels beat the Kansas City Royals 4-3 on Sunday.

After Haren departed, the Royals managed just one hit off Angels relievers Nick Maronde, Garrett Richards, Scott Downs, Jordan Walden and Kevin Jespen.

“Our bullpen came in and just got out after out in a game where they’ve got some guys that can drive the ball on their side where one mistake can tie the game,” Angels manager Mike Scioscia said.

“These guys are pitching with their backs against the wall and did a great job.”

The Angels are third in the AL wildcard standings, where the top two qualify — two games behind Oakland and Baltimore.

“We’re in a situation where we have to pay attention to the standings,” Scioscia said. “Everything is not totally in our Please see ROYALS, page 3B

Lockout puts NHL season on ice

By Dan Gelston Associated Press Sports Writer

Die-hard hockey fans might need to invest in some classic NHL games on DVD. It might be the only taste of hockey for months.

There’s no telling when the NHL lockout will end, especially when neither the league nor the NHLPA has committed to face-to-face negotiations to end the labor unrest. There were no formal talks Sunday on the first day of the lockout, the league’s fourth shutdown since 1992, including a year-long dispute that forced the cancellation of the entire 2004-05 season when the league successfully held out for a salary cap.

And there are no formal talks planned.

The league issued a statement to fans on its website that it

was “committed to negotiating around the clock to reach a new CBA that is fair to the players and to the 30 NHL teams.�

The clock is ticking and there’s no new collective bargaining agreement in sight. The league could start to announce this week the cancellation of preseason games and there’s little chance training camps will open on time. The regular season is scheduled to begin Oct. 11, but that obviously is in peril.

Day 1 of the lockout could serve as a preview for the next several cold months: empty rinks, empty talk. “This is a time of year for all attention to be focused on the ice, not on a meeting room,� the league said. “The league, the clubs and the players all have a stake in resolving our bargaining issues appropriately and getting the puck dropped

Alabama, LSU 1-2 after USC tumbles

as soon as possible. We owe it to each other, to the game and, most of all, to the fans.�

Some players won’t wait for labor talks to pick up — they’ve already packed up.

As of Sunday morning, all NHL players were free to speak to other leagues. Many will land in Russia’s KHL, and two big names already signed. Pittsburgh center Evgeni Malkin and Ottawa defenseman Sergei Gonchar agreed to deals with Metallurg. More will surely follow.

Malkin, a 26-year-old center with the Penguins, is the NHL’s reigning MVP. The 38-year-old Gonchar is a defenseman who helped lead the Senators to the playoffs last season.

Many of the players, 25 years and younger, could end up in the AHL, the NHL’s primary minor league. No matter where

they play, the players are prepared for a lengthy wait to return to the NHL. The core issue is money — how to split a $3.3 billion pot of revenue. The owners want to decrease the percentage of hockey-related revenue that goes to players, while the union wants a guarantee that players annually get at least the $1.8 billion in salaries paid out last season.

While the NHL lockout might not destroy the whole season — like in 2004-05 — a sizable chunk of games could be lost without any productive talks on tap.

NHL players struck in April 1992, causing 30 games to be postponed. This marks the third lockout under Commissioner Gary Bettman. The 1994-95 lockout ended after 103 days and the cancellation of 468 games.

In And Out No. 24 Boise State and No. 25 Nebraska, after brief exits, are back in the rankings, and No. 23 Mississippi State is in the Top 25 for the first time in a bit more than a year.

The Bulldogs are 3-0 for the first time since 1999, though getting there was tougher than most probably expected. Mississippi State won 30-24 at Troy on Saturday.

Falling out were Tennessee, BYU and Virginia Tech.

The Hokies suffered maybe the most surprising loss of the weekend, falling 35-17 to previously winless Pittsburgh.

Virginia Tech is unranked for the first time since October 2010, snapping a string of 29 polls.

Here we go again.

Alabama and LSU are Nos. 1 and 2. It’s almost as if last season never ended. The Crimson Tide and Tigers held the top two spots for eight weeks in 2011 before finally playing a rematch of a regular-season game for the BCS title, which Alabama won.

The difference this year is Alabama is No. 1 and LSU is No. 2, instead of vice versa.

Blame Southern California for the latest Southeastern Conference takeover.

USC was preseason No. 1 in a close vote and slipped to No. 2 after Alabama throttled Michigan to start the season. Then on Saturday night, Stanford handed the Trojans their first loss, 21-14 on the Farm and voters dropped USC 11 spots to 13th.

So we’re back where we were last season, waiting for Alabama and LSU to play in the first weekend of November, and wondering if either will be upset along the way.

It doesn’t seem likely.

The Tide faces Florida Atlantic and Mississippi over the next two weeks, and then takes a week off. After that come road games at Missouri and Tennessee, followed by a visit from No. 23 Mississippi State on Oct. 27.

The big game in Baton Rouge, La., is on Nov. 3.

The Tigers are at Auburn next week, followed by a home game against Towson. Then comes a road trip to No. 14 Florida and a home game against No. 7 South Carolina. A game against Texas A&M and a week off precede the Alabama game.

BRAD KESELOWSKI CELEBRATES THE WIN IN VICTORY LANE — his fourth of the year — after the Sprint Cup Series race at Chicagoland Speedway on Sunday in Joliet, Ill.

Keselowski outduels Johnson for first Chase win JOLIET, ILL. — Brad Keselowski raced to an impressive victory in the opening race of the Chase for the Sprint Cup, outdueling five-time champion Jimmie Johnson at Chicagoland Speedway on Sunday.

Keselowski led after a crucial pit cycle with about 35 laps remaining in the 400-mile race and held on comfortably from there for his first victory in a Chase race. He also takes over the points lead.

Kasey Kahne was third. All 12 of the Chase drivers finished in the top 18, with the exception of Jeff Gordon, who went into the wall with about 80 laps remaining. Gordon barely qualified for the Chase to begin with, and his championship hopes are already in serious jeopardy.

It’s Keselowski’s fourth victory of the season.

He leads Johnson by three points.

Wood passes Glasson at Hawaii KAPOLEI, HAWAII — Willie Wood took advantage of Bill Glasson’s back-nine collapse to win the inaugural Hawaii Championship for his second Champions Tour victory in the last three events.

The 51-year-old Wood birdied the last two holes for a 6-under 66 and a one-stroke victory over Glasson. Wood played 54 holes without a bogey.

Shin wins by 9 at British Open HOYLAKE, ENGLAND — Jiyai Shin avoided mistakes in miserable weather conditions Sunday to cruise to a record nine-stroke victory in the Women’s British Open.

In the 36-hole finish Sunday, Shin took a three-shot lead into the final round after shooting a 1-under 71 in the morning. The 24-year-old South Korean player stayed calm while strong wind and heavy showers sent scores soaring at Royal Liverpool in the afternoon, closing with a 73 to finish at 9-under 279.

South Korea’s Inbee Park was second, shooting 72-76.

lose the game, which is what we did (Saturday),” Weis said.

Forget for a second that KU’s turnovers have not spelled success in the win column. Weis said the early surge was a very positive sign of the progress the KU defense had made.

Ten Jayhawks have contributed to a takeaway, proof, Weis said, that creating turnovers can be contagious.

“Every defense in the country works on stripping the ball,” he said. “But when the ball actually starts coming out and good things end up happening, usually more people want a part of the action.”

Four Jayhawks have forced fumbles, led by two apiece from seniors Toben Opurum and Bradley McDougald. Four Jayhawks also have recorded interceptions, with McDougald leading the team with two and Greg Brown, Tyler Patmon and Corrigan Powell recording one each.

While spreading the wealth has made it possible for the Jayhawks to hope for and even expect a defensive play to be made at any point on the field, Weis said the early success has elevated KU’s confidence.

“Not only do more people try to create turnovers,” he said. “But, the other thing that happens is, instead of waiting for something bad to happen when you get down in the red zone, they expect to turn the ball over, which is a very, very, very strong positive.”

The Jayhawks travel to Northern Illinois on Saturday for a 2:30 p.m. kickoff.

Pick progressing It’s no secret that KU’s offense, particularly the passing game, has struggled during the first few games.

But the Jayhawks may have received a little good news

Sunday regarding senior wide receiver Kale Pick, who missed the TCU game because of injury.

“I specifically watched him (during Sunday’s practice),” Weis said.

“And he looked like, if we played today, he’d have been a lot closer to 100 percent. He didn’t look as sore as he did a couple days ago.”

In two starts to open the season, Pick caught seven passes for 103 yards, including an average of 14.7 yards per reception.

In Pick’s absence, sophomore Andrew Turzilli and junior Chris Omigie received extended playing time, and Weis said their performances might have been the start of productive seasons.

“With both of them going out there and making plays, it makes it easier to give them real reps,” he said. “We’re starting to believe that we can put ’em in the game and not worry about whether they can make a play.”

Other than freshman offensive lineman Sean Connolly and junior linebacker Prinz Kande, both of whom missed Saturday’s game, Weis said no other Jayhawks were listed as out or doubtful for this weekend.

NIU favored Northern Illinois, which defeated Army, 41-40, Saturday and moved to 2-1 overall, opened as a 10-point favorite against the Jayhawks this weekend.

Weis was not surprised.

“First, this isn’t a question about whether or not they could beat a BCSlevel team,” he said. “This team has done it. Number 2, we’ve lost 13 games in a row on the road. Every week you have to have that one thing to play off of with your team. Well, it’s our first game on the road, and we’ve lost 13 in a row on the road. You don’t need too many things to play off of. You keep harping on the positives and then find the message for the week, and that’ll be the message.”

KU loses match, wins title SOUTH BEND, IND. — Kansas University volleyball lost the match but won the tournament.

The Jayhawks fell to Notre Dame, 22-25, 26-24, 25-23, 29-27, Sunday, but went 2-1 in the weekend Golden Dome Invitational and won the tiebreaker to be named tournament champion, the Jayhawks’ third title in four invitationals.

The loss ended KU’s winning streak at nine, tying for fourth-longest in program history.

Kansas’ Caroline Jarmoc was named tournament MVP. “It was a dogfight, and you know you’re going to get their best effort on their home floor during a Sunday afternoon match,” KU coach Ray Bechard said. “We fought hard at times, but there were

times where we didn’t seize the moment and they did. When you fight back that hard, you need to get a couple of key stops and they came up with a couple more than we did.”

Jarmoc finished the match with 15 kills, giving her a team-best 39 on the weekend.

Sophomore outside hitter Sara McClinton led the Jayhawks with

18 kills and added a pair of blocks. In hitting efficiency, Kansas was paced by senior middle blocker Tayler Tolefree’s .333 attack percentage and nine kills.

Tolefree also earned a spot on the all-tournament team after totaling 24 kills and 15 blocks on the weekend.

KU will host Creighton at 6:30 p.m. Wednesday at Horejsi Center.

Haren (11-11) improved to 3-1 in his past four starts, holding the Royals to three runs, two earned, and five hits, while walking one and striking out five. He also moved to 4-0 in five career starts at Kansas City.

didn’t happen last week, but we have to build on this and continue.”

Quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick shrugged off last week’s three-interception outing by going 10 of 19 for 178 yards and two touchdowns, including a 49-yarder to Stevie Johnson. And Buffalo’s special teams contributed: Leodis McKelvin returned a punt 88 yards.

For the Chiefs, it was the same-old sloppiness, for a team that’s been outscored 75-41 and is opening a season 0-2 for the sixth time in seven years.

“I thought that we would be better, and we’re not,” coach Romeo Crennel said. “So we have to try and figure out what that is. From what I’ve seen, if we do what we’re supposed to do, then we would be better.”

KC’s offense managed just 71 yards on its first five possessions and then coughed up the ball on its sixth, when Hillis fumbled at the goal line.

“I messed up and let the team down,” Hillis said. “I put the blame on myself.”

Cassel finished 23-of42 for 301 yards with two touchdowns and an interception, with much of that production coming in the fourth quarter. Dwayne Bowe scored both touchdowns on 33- and 2-yard catches.

The Chiefs defense wasn’t much better, even while welcoming back two regulars, linebacker Tamba Hali (NFL suspension) and cornerback Brandon Flowers (foot injury).

The Chiefs were so thoroughly outplayed on both sides of the ball in the first half that Spiller’s 139 yards from scrimmage nearly matched Kansas City’s 148 yards net offense.

Pats TE Hernandez among injured Sunday The Associated Press

Aaron Hernandez left Gillette Stadium in a walking boot and carrying crutches.

Not exactly a welcome sight for Tom Brady and the New England Patriots.

The versatile tight end hurt his right ankle in the first quarter of the Patriots’ 20-18 loss to the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday.

The Patriots gave no immediate update on Hernandez, who had six catches for 59 yards and a touchdown in the opener but was held without a catch before he left Sunday.

Things could be a little different next week for the Jacksonville Jaguars, who lost quarterback Blaine Gabbert to an injured left hamstring in a 27-7 loss to Houston.

He was injured in the first half, played the third quarter and one series in the fourth before leaving

the game with what coach Mike Mularkey called “a strain in the back of his leg.”

St. Louis running back Steven Jackson sat out most of the final three quarters of the Rams’ 3128 victory over the Washington Redskins with a groin strain that worsened on his last few carries.

The Redskins lost defensive end Adam Carriker and outside linebacker Brian Orakpo to injuries early in the first quarter, while Rams offensive tackle Rodger Saffold was helped off after hurting his right knee.

New York Giants running back Ahmad Bradshaw, tackle David Diehl and wide receiver Domenik Hixon were knocked out of the team’s 41-34 win over Tampa Bay. Philadelphia lost center Jason Kelce, receiver Jeremy Maclin and offensive lineman King Dunlap in a 24-23 win over Baltimore.

Learn how to deal with extreme fears Annie’s Mailbox

Marcy Sugar and Kathy Mitchell anniesmailbox@comcast.net

sure that I am not alone with these problems.

Can we change who we are? Please do not suggest counseling. — Too Clean, Too Fearful Dear Too Clean: You can change if you are motivated to do so. We aren’t concerned about your clean house. You may be a little more attentive than most people, but it doesn’t sound as if your cleanliness is out of control. Your fear of highway travel, however, is an anxiety issue.

A combination of ther-

‘Revolution,’ ‘Mob Doctor’ make debut The search for the new “Lost” continues with “Revolution” (9 p.m., NBC). Set 15 years after a mysterious and permanent power blackout, “Revolution” is both epic in scope and frequently laughable in execution — often at the same time.

While “Lost” showed folks adjusting to low-tech life on a lush deserted island, “Revolution” uses extensive special effects to depict a ruined world not unlike the old History Channel series “Life After People.” Nineteenthcentury villages, complete with small farms and pens for livestock, sprout up outside of once-posh gated communities.

Government, for what it’s worth, has been reduced to warlordism.

At its heart, “Revolution” is a mystery.

Unfortunately, some of its mystery is shrouded in magic. There’s a lot of preposterous nonsense about “Revolution.”

The abundance of swords and, apparently, soap and shampoo come to mind. But the show really begins to fall apart when secret charmed amulets show up.

Also set in Chicago, “The Mob Doctor” (8 p.m., Fox) stars Jordana Spiro as the young brilliant surgeon Dr. Grace Devlin.

Folks may recall Spiro from the genial TBS sitcom “My Boys,” also set in Chicago.

As the title implies, Grace has agreed to work for local mobsters in return for forgiveness of her hapless brother’s gambling debts.

This works out fine as long as she’s called upon to fix up wounded bad guys in furtive locations.

But when the big shots call on her to put some enemies on ice, she’s up against her Hippocratic Oath.

Tonight’s other highlights

Blind auditions on “The Voice” (7 p.m., NBC).

Brennan goes on the lam on the season premiere of “Bones” (7 p.m., Fox).

Luke Bryan and Kimberly Perry host “CMA Music Festival: Country’s Night to Rock” (7 p.m., ABC).

The Atlanta Falcons host the Denver Broncos on “Monday Night Football” (7 p.m., ESPN).

Linda Ellerbee hosts “Kids Pick the President: The Issues” on “Nick News” (7 p.m., Nickelodeon).

Daphne worries on “Switched at Birth” (7 p.m., ABC Family).

Laura Innes guest-stars on “Warehouse 13” (8 p.m., Syfy).

Raydor’s rash decision on “Major Crimes” (8 p.m., TNT, TV-14).

Pierce’s weird theories have some merit on “Perception” (9 p.m., TNT, TV-14).

“Anthony Bourdain: No Reservations” (8 p.m., Travel) visits the Mojave Desert.

Dear Annie: You printed a letter about people parking in the striped area of handicapped zones. What do you do when your friends use the handicapped parking permits that belong to their parents or spouses when the disabled person is not in the car with them?

Several times, we girls have gone out together, and one of them uses the permit to get better parking at the venue. No one in the car needs assistance. Shy of creating a problem with my friends, I don’t know how to address this is-

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS

For Monday, Sept. 17: This year you express your compassion, which you demonstrate through your actions. You often will carry more than your share of responsibilities, and will handle them magnificently. If you are single, you could attract someone who is emotionally unavailable. If you are attached, the two of you gain through mini escapes from reality into your own world.

The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult Aries (March 21-April 19) Defer to others, and you will enjoy watching them deal with various issues that you face every day. Hopefully, you will be appreciated more as a result. Tonight: Go through your choices.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) An unexpected revelation could encourage you to slow down.

Express your feelings with sensitivity. Tonight: Work through a problem by getting some exercise.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) Where others seem to hit a dead end, you naturally continue in the right direction. You are an endless source of information and creativity to many people.

Tonight: Whatever puts a smile on your face.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) You juggle different concerns, especially involving your home and domestic life. More often than not, your concerns revolve around this area of your life. Tonight: Chill at home.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) You share, and others respond; however, there is no guarantee that you will like their answer.

sue. It really bothers me.

Do you have some advice? — Nancy Dear Nancy: It is important to speak up.

Simply say, “It makes me uncomfortable when you use a handicapped spot. I always feel that we are stealing a parking place from someone who really needs it. I’m grateful I don’t. Please park somewhere else.”

Your friends may frown and say you’re being silly, but we guarantee it will have an effect on their future behavior.

Good for you.

I also have many fears, some of which are entirely baseless. I am in anguish if I have to travel on a highway, imagining worst-case scenarios.

Five years ago, my husband and I started driving 1,500 miles for our winter vacation. (Flying is too expensive.)

With speed limits up to 70 mph, I am scared out of my mind. Last year, on the day of our trip, I awoke with a migraine and started to vomit.

Shirley Temple cupcakes H

i, folks! We’re gonna step up our skills next month, but we’ve got one more super-simple recipe to celebrate the end of summer.

These cupcakes are a nod to my favorite bar beverage, the Shirley Temple. Yeah, I’m a cheap date, but you’ll never catch me with a lampshade on my head.

Not as intensely flavored as the syrupladen drink, the baked version is subtle enough for grown-up palates, yet sweet enough for the younger set. The younger set at our house thinks that these should be dinner every night. One batch makes about 24 cupcakes.

Heat your oven to 350 degrees and line your cupcake pans with baking papers.

Separate a box of white cake mix (no pudding added) into two equal portions, roughly 1 3/4 cups each.

To the first portion, add 1 large egg, 1 egg white, 2 tablespoons of oil, and 1/2 cup lemon-lime soda. Blend on low speed for 30 seconds, then medium speed for 2 minutes, scraping the bowl frequently. Use a rubber spatula, not your hands.

In a second bowl, combine the rest of the cake mix with 1 large egg, 1 egg yolk, 2 tablespoons of oil, and 1/2 cup grenadine syrup. Resist the temptation to drink straight grenadine. Blend as for the soda batter and admire the pretty color.

The grenadine batter will be noticeably thicker than the soda batter. Don’t panic; it’s supposed to look like that.

Divide the grenadine batter evenly, about 1 1/3 tablespoons per cupcake liner.

Spoon an equal amount of the soda batter into each cup, carefully spreading it to the sides.

Bake the cupcakes for 20-22 minutes, or until the tops spring back when touched with a cautious finger. Cool in the pans for 5 minutes, then transfer the cupcakes to a baker’s rack and stick ‘em in the freezer.

While the cakes chill, put 24 maraschino cherries between layers of paper towel to drain and dry.

About 20 minutes before serving, pull the cupcakes from the freezer and slather them with your favorite buttercream

frosting. Top each with a cherry and prepare to wow your guests.

You can easily intensify the cherry kick in these cupcakes by adding a touch (or 12) of grenadine to your frosting, or you can squeeze in a bit of lime juice and have cherry limeade cupcakes.

If you should happen to thin out your frosting with too much liquid, there’s an easy fix: Stir in a spoonful of cornstarch!

It’ll perk up your frosting without altering the taste, and it’ll save you countless minutes of rummaging through the cupboards looking for the powdered sugar.

I’d like to thank my super crew of volunteer test bakers this month, so let’s give a round of applause to Elizabeth M., Kathy W., Maggie D., Melinda D., Sarah B., Tom B., Tricia C. and Yolanda S. for all of the great feedback and encouragement. The baking community always rises to the occasion.

Enjoy!

Opening preschool ‘a dream come true’

BY ADAM STRUNK

L

et’s face it — 4-year-olds can be loud, messy and often a handful.

Someone who spends 12 hours a day in a room full of them either loves children or is incredibly patient.

For James Immel, who runs Immel Early Education Academy at 3045 W. Seventh St., it’s a little of both.

“You have to have patience, you have to be organized, and you have to be consistent,” he said.

From 6:30 a.m. to 6 p.m., Immel takes care of six children at his business, which also doubles as his home. He feeds them snacks, breakfast and lunch. He puts them down for naps, plays music to them, reads to them and gets them ready for kindergarten.

Immel has quite a bit of experience in this field. He has worked more than 20 years in early childhood education for the Lawrence school district and Princeton Children’s Center. When the Lawrence school district expanded to all-day kindergarten this year, Immel saw an opportunity and opened his business earlier this month.

“All the stars were just lined up right, and this really has been a dream come true, to be my own boss and have things done my way.”

Immel said that the expectations for the average kindergartner have been growing year after year and that all children develop at a different pace, making preschools necessary.

“The state standards nowadays, the child entering kindergarten isn’t prepared,” he said. “They are so far behind socially and academically. They need that experience to help prepare them for kindergarten so when they do enter kindergarten, they can immediately start learning.”

His job is to get them on board. The trick?

“The key is to teach through play.

PRESCHOOL TEACHER JAMES IMMEL sits with Lola Agre, 4, during some play time at Immel Early Education Academy on Sept. 10.

That’s really key.”

Immel got involved with early childhood development at Kansas University, where he got a bachelor’s degree in early childhood education and a minor in special education.

“I’ve just always enjoyed kids and was always drawn to those courses, plus they were easy for me.”

Immel said he was also one of the few males in the field, something that he views as helpful.

“What I have seen, especially in today’s day and age with all the divorces, kids really need a positive male role model and a consistent male in their lives,” he said. “They just respond well to me.”

Immel hopes to hire an assistant after more children enroll in the academy and to have one educator per six children, which he said is about half as many children per adult as a regular preschool.

This allows him to provide more one-

on-one attention, whether its reading “Green Eggs and Ham” or playing “Twinkle Twinkle” on his guitar to the kids.

His hope is that such attention will further nurture the children and put them on track to be well ready for the next step.

“The preschool age will learn more, in the age span of 5 and 6, will learn more in that year than they will ever learn in the rest of their lifetime,” he said. “It’s great to see the growth.”

“What I have seen, especially in today’s day and age with all the divorces, kids really need a positive male role model and a consistent male in their lives. They just respond well to me.”

PUTTING SAFETY FIRST

Jayhawk mom travels the country ‘getting the word out’ about stalking

BY KELLY STRODA

K

athleen Baty is sporting jeans and a hot pink shirt decorated yellow flowers and rhinestones that spell “The Safety Chick.” The flowers and rhinestones don’t fool me, though.

This woman is tough.

After all, Baty is “The Safety Chick.”

She is a personal safety expert and advocate who travels the country doing seminars and appearing on talk shows. In the 1990s, she was instrumental in helping pass anti-stalking legislation.

If that doesn’t make her tough enough, she’s also the mother of three boys. In fact, that’s why she’s in Lawrence, visiting from California. Her son, Turner Baty, plays quarterback and dons No. 6 for Kansas University. He was recruited by new head coach Charlie Weis.

Baty was in town this month to watch Turner play his first Division 1 game for the Jayhawks, but she took time to talk about personal safety and what it’s like to be The Safety Chick.

“Crime knows no boundaries, no demographic, no neighborhood,” she said.

A look the Lawrence Police Department’s list of reported cases of crimes for the first half of 2012 could paint a nervewracking picture: ! 331 cases of burglary ! 59 cases of kidnapping or abduction ! 28 cases of robbery ! 23 cases of rape But Baty offers this advice: “It’s not about living paranoid, it’s about living smart.”

She has written two books about safety.

“A Girl’s Gotta Do What a Girl’s Gotta Do” was released in 2003, and “College Safety 101: Miss Independent’s Guide to Empowerment, Confidence, and Staying Safe” was published last year.

The latter goes beyond what to do if you feel unsafe. The book discusses dorm life, studying abroad, self-defense and how to stay safe on the Internet.

She also sells College Safety Kits on her website, SafetyChick.com. The kits include a date rape drug test coasters, a personal safety alarm, a door wedge alarm and her “College Safety 101” book.

Mike Yoder/Journal-World Photo

“THE SAFETY CHICK” KATHLEEN BATY is author of “College Safety 101,” and she has become a personal safety expert and advocate after having a stalker for eight years. She is pictured with a college safety kit, available at her website, SafetyChick. com.

But, she says, the biggest way to prevent being a target is caring about personal safety.

“It should be as routine as brushing your teeth,” she said.

So, how did Baty become “The Safety

Chick”? After all, it’s not exactly a career many little girls envision for themselves at a young age.

Baty was stalked for eight years by a man she went to high school with. He would show up at her door with semiautomatic weapons, knives and handcuffs trying to kidnap her. It may sound like the plot to a Lifetime movie, but for Baty, it was her life.

“I lived the life of a hunted animal,” she said.

One day when she was home alone, Baty turned around to find her stalker standing behind her with a knife in his hand. Luckily, Baty was able to escape.

Police kept her stalker at bay on her front porch for 11 hours before arresting him.

At the time, the word “stalking” wasn’t even in the nation’s vernacular.

“It was ridiculous and crazy that there were no laws on the books and that it always had to lead to murder, violence or kidnapping,” she said. “There was never anything to stop it in its tracks.”

After Baty’s incident, she received a phone call from California congressman Ed Royce. Royce was trying to pass an anti-stalking law through the state legislature, and he asked Baty to testify.

“The day that I testified,” she said, “it was like a weight was lifted off my shoulders.”

In 1991, stalking was made into a crime in California. Two years later, Royce was elected to U.S. Congress. In 1996, stalking was made a federal crime.

Afterward, “getting the word out” about stalking became Baty’s passion.

“I started doing every national talk show known to man to get the word out about stalking,” she said.

Nearly a decade ago, she left her job as a sportscaster to pursue being a full-time personal safety expert and advocate.

She has appeared on “Today,” “The Montel Williams Show,” “America’s Most Wanted,” “Inside Edition,” “Good Morning America” and “Larry King Live.”

“In fact, I did ‘Larry King Live’ in labor with Turner,” she said. “He came a month early, that little peanut.”

SAFETY TIPS “I crave Jazzercise because it makes me feel rejuvenated and stress free.” — , 35

Piper

Kathleen Baty shared her top 5 safety tips for college women:

Every Monday in September is

1. Care about your own personal safety

FREE!

“You ain’t in Kansas anymore when you go to school. You have to realize you are not in your safe, little home with your parents. The charge is now on you to be responsible for your personal safety,” Baty said.

Photo no retouch t ed!

2. Intuition Pay attention to your gut instinct.

It’s not being paranoid, it’s our God-given gift. Two intuitions are better than one. Don’t dismiss somebody; listen to what they’re saying.

3. The code of the Safety Chick Sisterhood Always have a buddy, but it goes beyond that. Always have each other’s backs.

4. Report immediately If something doesn’t feel right — something you see in the dorms, a person loitering about, whatever — pay attention to it and do something about it. Let someone know.

5. Pass it on The more people who care about their personal safety, the safer it’ll be.

Sgt. Trent McKinley with the Lawrence Police Department also offered some advice about personal safety. He said Baty’s Top 5 were similar to tips LPD advises.

“If you can avoid that situation in the first place,” he said, “that’s certainly what we recommend.”

KATHLEEN BATY’S BOOK “COLLEGE SAFETY 101” discusses dorm life, studying abroad, Internet safety and self-defense.

Here are some other tips from McKinley that anyone can put to use: ! Be smart. If you’re driving

through an area you don’t feel safe in, don’t stop at a convenient store to get a soda. !" Cellphones are beneficial.

Stay in touch with friends or family about where you’re going and when you’ll be back. But don’t let your phone distract you from being safe. Distraction can lead people to walk off a curb and into oncoming traffic or be more susceptible to purse snatching. ! At home, lock your doors,

close your windows and close your blinds. Screens will keep out bugs, but not burglars, McKinley said. ! Keep an exterior light on at

night. The old adage of “turning the light off when you go to bed” is no more. ! If your backyard has a gate, put

a padlock on it.

“Now it’s your turn, mom!”

Ease transition for kids during divorce Dr. Wes: In my business, high-conflict divorce comes along all too frequently, damaging everyone in its path.

In fact, my first rule for dating singles is this: Don’t marry anyone you don’t want to be divorced from. In other words, watch how your beloved treats the people he or she dislikes, and consider how things might go if you become one of them.

This week, we’ve compiled a list of our best rules for making things as positive as possible for kids facing divorce. I frequently tweet my other 35 rules, so feel join me at Twitter.com/wescrenshawphd or read our books to get them all. ! Create order. Kids need to know that divorcing parents have everything under control. The more parents sound like they’ve actually thought all this through, the more easily kids adjust. ! Agree on what you will and won’t share outside of joint discussions with the kids. ! Nothing is worse for kids than hearing how bad one parent is, or how indifferent the other. And just to be clear, kids don’t care whose fault the divorce was, so keep the blame game to yourself. ! It’s tempting to solicit input on parenting time from teens or even preteens. Don’t.

That delicate task is better left to a therapist. ! If you are considering moving more than 25 miles after a divorce, reconsider.

Distance parenting creates complications for everyone and inhibits the kind of frequent parental contact kids need. ! Parents who do move away must set up visitations that respect’s their children’s time and activities. ! Be a part of your child’s world rather than simply demanding they join yours.

That’s what the rest of us do. Divorce does not change that. ! Don’t move on too easily or too quickly.

Kids, particularly teens, need to see parents dealing with their own grief and loss in or-

Double TAKE DR. WES CRENSHAW AND KATIE GUYOT der to deal with theirs. Jumping into a new relationship rarely works out, and it usually creates a much harder road for teens. ! Teenagers of divorce feel better spending time at a nonresidential parent’s house if they have friends nearby. Alternatively, invite a couple of friends along for the visit. ! Most importantly, ACT NORMAL. To the extent possible, do what the nondivorced families do. Try to let the divorce fade into the background and typical family life move to the forefront.

Katie: A family, whether together or divorced, forms a triangle, the strongest of all geometric shapes: Parent A is the first point, Parent B is the second and the children are the third. When parents separate, the bonds connecting each can be stretched to their limits — and if one bond breaks, the entire structure may collapse. After all, a threelegged stool can’t stand on only two.

No matter how bitter the conflict, it’s important that divorcing parents keep the following tips in mind to keep their own triangle intact: ! Children aren’t therapists. If you need

We’ll be talking about how to have a kid-friendly divorce and taking calls from listeners. to unload, talk to a professional, a close friend, or, in a pinch, your cat — provided your children aren’t within earshot. ! Limit drastic changes. Adjusting to divorce is a shell-shocker in itself. To ease the transition, keep other aspects of your children’s lives, such as school, activities and relationships with extended family, as consistent as possible. ! Accept the visitation you have with your children. The parenting time may seem too short, but what you do with that time is more important than the number of hours it takes up. Take every chance to strengthen your bonds with your kids while still allowing them to spend time with their own age group. ! Don’t send a messenger. Only miscommunication and discomfort result when children are used as middlemen between divorced parents. Maintain direct contact with phone calls and face-to-face chats, and leave the kids out of the loop. ! Never talk law at dinner. Children don’t want to think of themselves as property in a court case. Post-divorce finances can be stressful, but everyone will be happier if legal conflicts remain ink on paper. ! Be accommodating. Nobody is above needing a little help every once in a while.

Making an effort to work around your ex-partner’s work schedule or car trouble shows your children that although the family triangle is a different size and shape, it is not broken.

COMING SOON! Origami: Eternal and pop-culture favorite

BY TISH WELLS, MCCLATCHY NEWSPAPERS

T

here’s more to origami than cranes.

It started centuries years ago, likely in Japan, and has had widespread appeal ever since. New variations appear all the time. Traditionalists will enjoy “Amazing Origami” and pop-culture enthusiasts can try their hand at folding Darth Vader’s black helmet.

Chris Alexander, author of “Star Wars Origami,” had been enthralled by “Star Wars” since the movie entered theaters in 1977.

“I saw the original “Star Wars” when it first came out,” he said at Celebration VI, a “Star Wars” convention held in Orlando, Fla. “I have been a fan ever since.

I started doing origami when I was 4, so that would be 1969, so I have been an origami fan since then. Everyone always wants to put their hobbies together, this is my result.”

Alexander, whose real life job is a Los Angeles air traffic controller, says, “The Internet made it really accessible to everybody. So, now it’s just getting more and more popular as time goes on.”

“Amazing Origami” takes a more traditional look at paper folding. The introduction points out that “in Japanese ‘ori’ means to fold and ‘gami’ means paper.”

With 144 beautifully patterned sheets of paper, you can make 17 different origami models running from a Luna moth, swan, magnolia blossom and even a goldfish koi.

The diagrams are by Michael G. LaFosse or Gay Merrill Gross.

All the authors point out that you need to practice, practice, practice, before trying out the enclosed papers. “Star Wars Origami” includes printed sheets as well.

Alexander fell into making “Star Wars” origami by accident. He was teaching children how to fold a penguin, turned it on its side, and realized “you have a B-wing starfighter” from “Star Wars: Return of the Jedi,” something in-depth fans of the films would recognize.

Visiting a friend who was also a big “Star Wars” fan, he showed off the B-wing and an X-wing fighter he’d folded. His friend told him to write a book about them.

“I said I can’t. I don’t know how to write, I don’t know how to invent, I don’t know how to design them, put them on paper, and he said, ‘So teach yourself,’” says Alexander. Fifteen years later, his book has been published. It has 36 designs including lightsabers, R2-D2 ‘droid, the Wookiee Chewbacca and an Imperial shuttle.

He’s made extensive origami sets for the stars of the movies including “an elaborate display I made to George Lucas. He said it was amazing.”

BACKYARD CHICKENS Residents take advantage of ordinance allowing hens in city

BY SARA SHEPHERD

T

he welcoming committee at Meryl Carver-Allmond’s east Lawrence house is nine-strong, energetic, inquisitive and all aflutter.

There’s Tori, Bonnie, Gladys, Joni and a handful of younger ladies (well, one’s gender is questionable). While Carver-Allmond is at work, they sometimes bicker, but they pitch in on groceries (albeit only one category) and help a little around the yard (if pooping in it counts).

Her brood of chickens, Carver-Allmond says, is part food source, part pet and part amusement.

“They’re really entertaining,” she says.

“They have personalities much more than you think they would.”

Carver-Allmond and her family are among Lawrence residents taking advantage of the city’s law allowing backyard chickens. Most owners agree, they like knowing where their eggs — and for some, drumsticks — come from. Plus, they just like having the plucky birds around.

At his home on Barker Avenue, Bob Gent has 11 laying hens and a few more chickens he plans to slaughter for meat.

Gent, who shares eggs and meat with friends if he ends up with extra, considers

TWO OF THE NINE CHICKENS in Meryl Carver-Allmond’s coop take the yard.

Residents may keep one female chicken per 500 square feet of lot size, with a maximum of 20 birds, according to Lawrence’s animal regulation code. raising his own chickens one step better than cooking from scratch.

“I know … everything that these birds have eaten, and therefore I feel a little more confident about what I’m eating,” he says, then pauses. “And they’re very entertaining to have around.”

BIRDS AND BEES Residents may keep one female chicken per 500 square feet of lot size, with a maximum of 20 birds, according to the city’s animal regulation code, updated in 2009 to allow chickens and ducks in town. The birds must have coops or similar shelters

of sufficient size, distance from neighboring properties and cleanliness.

Roosters aren’t allowed.

Primarily, they crow, and nobody’s neighbors want that. Also, they can be aggressive, and the spurs on their legs are sharp, says Bill Wood, extension director with K-State Research and Extension of Douglas County.

“In town, with kids or pets around, a rooster could hurt somebody,” he says.

Besides, roosters aren’t necessary to get eggs — without fertilization, hens will lay but their eggs will never develop into chicks.

Carver-Allmond names all her hens

after female singers. (Did you catch the theme earlier — Tori Amos, Bonnie Tyler, Gladys Knight and Joni Mitchell?)

But she’s beginning to worry that one of the Indigo Girls, well, might actually be an Indigo Boy. Amy, who is entering adolescence, seems to be growing more tail feathers than the rest of the flock. If she crows, Carver-Allmond says, Amy’s out.

It’s tricky to tell the gender of young chicks, and Carver-Allmond has had to give away two roosters after she realized the person who sold them to her guessed wrong.

Other facts of life must be dealt with, too, like the time Gladys “went broody.”

The hen refused to stop sitting on a nest of eggs she apparently — and mistakenly — thought would hatch. Trying a trick she’d read, Carver-Allmond bought three chicks and sneaked them underneath Gladys while she slept.

It worked. Gladys woke up and sprang into action like the new mama she believed she was, her babies trailing her all around the yard.

Even in town, predators are a threat to chickens.

At Carver-Allmond’s, chief predator is the family dog, a small but instinctual terrier. Chickens roam the backyard during the day but must be locked into their run or coop each evening before the dog can go out.

Foxes and opossums also have been known to hunt city chickens, and Gent has lost several to raccoons, even with precautions, making chickens a pet that requires twice-a-day attention.

ENVIRONMENTAL ACTIVISTS Besides always having fresh eggs, Gent also likes the activity his chickens create around the yard.

“I get some productivity out of a part of the yard I can’t grow anything in, just because it’s too shady,” he says.

When chickens are roaming the yard, they scratch around, munch on bugs and leave their droppings, which biodegrade into the lawn.

When they clean out the coop, both Carver-Allmond and Gent toss the chicken droppings into their compost piles.

“It’s just rocket fuel for plants,” Gent says.

Carver-Allmond fences most of her vegetable plants so the chickens don’t eat them. But when fall comes, she takes down the fences

and lets the chickens have at the beds, which they help tear down and scratch up for the spring.

Michelle Gundy, who lives on New Jersey Street, says she and her husband, David Gundy, think of their chickens — 10, almost all different breeds — as a “moving landscape.”

“With their color, they’re just like walking flowers,” she says.

Gundy says her husband takes their son, Wendell, outside every morning to watch the chickens scurry around for their breakfast.

At only 3 months old, he’s entertained, too.

“We throw the scratch grains right in front of him,” Gundy says, “and he is fascinated with it.”

KEEPING CHICKENS In Lawrence, residents may keep ducks and female chickens as long as they comply with rules set out in the city’s animal code.

Following is a list of other animals residents legally can own in the city limits: Dogs, cats, domesticated rodents, domesticated European ferrets, rabbits (up to three), birds (excluding turkeys, geese, swans, peafowl, guinea fowl, ostriches and emus), nonvenomous snakes less than 8 feet long, nonvenomous lizards, turtles (excluding protected species), amphibians, fish, invertebrates, domesticated hedgehogs and Vietnamese potbellied pigs.

A tale of two Springfields A

lthough there are more than 30 different Springfields in the United States, only two of them are close enough to Lawrence to make convenient weekend getaways — Springfield, Ill. (which just happens to be my hometown), and Springfield, Mo. Each Springfield has unique culinary options and family-friendly activities, and are within an easy day’s drive (Springfield, Mo., 195 miles; Springfield, Ill., 348 miles) away.

Both cities host popular Route 66 Festivals — Springfield, Ill.’s International Route 66 Mother Road Festival is coming up this weekend, Sept. 21-23.

NANCY PISTORIUS

DAYTRIPPER HISTORY AND HORSESHOES Since its opening in Springfield, Ill., in 2005, millions of visitors from all corners of the globe have toured the Abraham Lincoln Presidential LiONLINE brary and Museum, which consists visit-springfieldillinois.com of 100,000 square springfieldmo.org feet of exhibits — an entire city block alplm.org of interactive expefantasticcaverns.com riences that guide guests through Lincoln’s life and times.

As you wind your way through the museum, Abe’s history is anything but boring. In fact, some detractors have complained that with spectacles like the Holavision show, Ghosts of the Library and the high-tech special effects in the theater presentation Through Lincoln’s Eyes, the museum is more “Disneyfied” than scholarly. But all the smoke effects, strobe lighting, vibrating seats and animatronic figures make learning about the history of our country not only palatable but actually exciting.

Instead of reading about the Presidential Campaigns of 1860 in a dry textbook, you can watch a contemporary portrayal of 30-second television campaign commercials promoting each of that year’s four candidates.

RIDE ALL THE WAY THROUGH FANTASTIC CAVERNS, ABOVE, in Springfield, Mo., to experience the splendor of the cave while preserving its natural features. LEONG’S SPRINGFIELD-STYLE CASHEW CHICKEN, AT LEFT, has been a hit in Springfield, Mo., since 1963.

All your senses will be aroused as you walk through the Illusion Gallery, a gauntlet of yelling images arguing for and against slavery. And by the time you wind your way through Journeys, deeply humanizing depictions of Abe’s life (warts and all) from his boyhood log cabin to his ornately draped casket, you may find yourself with tears in your eyes.

After touring the historic sites, it’s time for a taste of the local cuisine. Springfield, Ill., has always been a great restaurant town, but not for the health-conscious.

Only in Springfield will you find the gargantuan “horseshoe sandwich,” created in 1928 at the old Leland Hotel. Named for the shape of the ham once used to top the open-faced sandwich, this local delicacy is basically

a heart attack on a plate. But once you’ve taken your first bite, you’ll roll your eyes skyward and thank the heavens for such a creation.

Wherever you try it — I recommend the Dublin Pub, 1975 Wabash Ave. — you’ll find it’s made by laying two pieces of toasted bread on a warm platter, then layering some kind of meat (your choice) over the toast. Next, the entire plate is smothered with a rich cheddar cheese sauce (using either beer, wine or a Welsh rarebit-type sauce). Finally, the whole cardiac-arrest concoction is topped with crispy french fries. If you’re feeling especially daring, add a generous heaping of salt.

If you’re not feeling quite so brave, order the smaller version, the pony. It’s Springfield’s original comfort food, a sandwich that can only be eaten with a fork.

chicken” in Lawrence’s Chinese eateries.

Springfield-style cashew chicken originated when David Leong opened Leong’s Tea House in 1963. Locals were reluctant to try authentic Chinese dishes, so Leong created something he thought they’d enjoy — fried chicken chunks covered with Chinese oyster sauce, halved cashews and chopped green onions.

Springfield-style Cashew Chicken became an immediate hit. Try it at Leong’s Asian Diner, 1540 West Republic Road, or Asian King Buffet, 3130 S. Glenstone Ave. Perhaps the most popular year-round attraction in Springfield, Mo., is Fantastic Caverns, America’s only Ride-Through Cave, where it’s always a cool 60 degrees Fahrenheit.

Touring Fantastic Caverns in Jeep-drawn trams helps preserve the cave’s natural beauty, while letting guests experience the splendor of the stalactites, stalagmites, flowstones and other formations that were thousands of years in the making. The mile-long, 55-minute tour is brightly lit in order to showcase the dramatic vistas.

K.C. style hits runway at fashion week

K

ansas City: the land known for its jazz, BBQ, and — believe it or not — fashion.

It may not be readily apparent now, but Kansas City fashion enthusiasts are looking to the city’s past in order to bring it to the fashion forefront once again through Kansas City Fashion Week, which took place Sept. 5-9.

After World War I, soldiers came home and, not wanting to go back to farm life, flocked to the city. Kansas City’s Garment District, historically situated between Sixth and 11th streets and Washington and Wyandotte streets, began to thrive.

In the 1930s, one out of every seven women in the United States owned a Kansas City-made garment, a far cry from the limited production that happens in Kansas City today. The district grew so quickly and so widely, it became the second-largest garment district in the United States, with New York City’s being the biggest.

In celebration of Fall 2012 Kansas City Fashion Week, I went to one of its three fashion shows, which featured student designers (the first fashion week to ever host students) and professionals alike. Kansas City’s Fashion Week attracted mostly Midwest designers, but some came from as far away as Florida.

Margie Hogue, a Lawrence designer, displayed a collection she created for Awava, a fair-trade African craft company founded to help Ugandan women reach economic sustainability.

I took my seat in The Gallery Event Space approximately a half-hour before the show began, and my eyes

were immediately drawn to the DJ, whose booth sat exactly opposite of my chair. I quickly learned that he goes by the name “Gent,” he loves to dance, and his diet includes large quantities of caffeine. Next to his laptop, he had placed three Red Bulls, three Diet Cokes and a cup of coffee. And he danced the entire show.

As expected in Kansas City, the crowd wore an eclectic mix of styles. Multi-colored mohawks blended with wellkempt buns; studded blazers sat next to off-the-shoulder sweaters; nude-colored wedges intermingled with combat boots. Twenty-somethings gabbed with 70-somethings, and even a few grade-schoolers attended, chaperoned by their well-dressed mamas.

The collections showcased mimicked the crowd’s incongruent sense of style and boasted looks truly unique to each designer. The nine designers featured in the show seemingly left no style untouched. Everything from a couture line designed by a 15-year-old to a dress made out of cigarette boxes to little girls’ punk rock costumes made their way down the runway.

Kansas City Fashion Week President Phil Willoughby and Executive Director Teisha Barber have built a team of individuals determined to attract the best and brightest up-and-coming designers, and as a return to its past, Kansas City is focusing on its locals to build a rejuvenated fashion hub. Kansas City will host another fashion week in the spring.

e sat down together for dinner, my husband and I at opposite ends of our table with our children between us.

As my husband sliced through the steak I had marinated and grilled with love, he gazed across the table and asked, “What’s up with the eHarmony app?”

I looked at him and then back down at the beautiful spread on which I had slaved away for his nourishment and dining pleasure and wondered why, just exactly, he would think I was looking to take on another mouth to feed.

“What are you talking about?” I replied.

Suddenly I noticed our 11-year-old son shifting in his seat with a grin.

“That was me,” he confessed.

All heads turned to Luke, a self-proclaimed eternal bachelor who, as far as I can tell, has no plans to move out anytime soon or date anyone ever.

“Why did you download eHarmony’s app?” We all asked the obvious question in unison.

“It’s from the rewards program,” he explained. “I almost have enough for a $5 gift card!”

The kids had found an app that markets other apps for iDevices by automatically downloading a new app to your device every day. After a certain number of downloads, it sends a $5 Amazon gift card. No need to keep the app; nearly all of them are deleted as soon as they are loaded. But it seemed Luke wasn’t as quick on the draw at erasing eHarmony.

I considered for a moment how his profile might look, had eHarmony made the cut …

Use a fish tape to ease pulling electrical wire

R

unning electrical wire through conduit is tricky business. An extra set of hands, wire pulling lubricant and a good quality fish tape will make the job easier.

Step 1: Turn off the power supply to any existing wires inside the conduit being used. Use a screwdriver to loosen elbow access panels along the run.

Step 2: Check the fish tape for kinks or worn areas. Tighten any loose screws on the fish tape case.

Step 3: From the end where the wires will be pulled to, hold the fish tape reel handle with one hand and manually feed the fish tape into the conduit.

Use wire pulling lubricant on the fish tape to facilitate the process. Do not use dish soap or petroleum-based products as lubrication — the oil will deteriorate the protective wire insulation.

Step 4: Do not force the fish tape through the conduit. If it becomes stuck, pull the tape back several inches and try again.

Do not force the fish tape through the conduit. If it becomes stuck, pull the tape back several inches and try again.

along the way to guide the fish tape through the conduit.

Step 5: If the fish tape becomes stuck near the end of the run, use a second fish tape or stiff wire to hook the tape from the bottom and pull it through.

Step 6: Strip three inches of insulation off of the wire ends to be pulled. Hook one wire through the fish tape eye and twist the wire onto itself to secure it. Hook a second wire through the fish tape eye in the opposite direction and twist the wire onto itself to secure it. Cut any remaining wires to be pulled back flush with the insulation to reduce bulkiness.

Step 7: Once the wires have been securely attached to the fish tape eye, wrap the entire assembly with electrical tape.

Keep the overall size of the assembly to a minimum to facilitate pulling.

Step 8: Coat the wire assembly with wire pulling lubricant.

Step 9: Slowly pull the fish tape from the top, pulling out a three foot section at a time. Reel the fish tape back into the case before pulling the next three foot section.

While the tape is being pulled from the top, have a second person guiding the wire up into the conduit. Lubricate each section of wire before feeding it into the conduit. Progress slowly to avoid kinks and nicks in the wire.

Some cats benefit from walks

BY SUE MANNING, ASSOCIATED PRESS

KAREN NICHOLS WALKS HER CAT SKEEZIX on Aug. 29 in Castro Valley, Calif. If you are going to walk your cat, you’ll have to keep it on a tight leash. More than 6 feet is too dangerous for you and the cat, according to experts who warn the harness has to fit snugly, too.

L

ANGELES — Karen Nichols wanted a life unchained to the monotony of twice-daily dog walks, so she got herself three cats.

But she still strolls the neighborhood on nice days — with her cat Skeezix.

Nichols took part in a program recently that encouraged finding ways to bring out the wild nature in her cat. Some cat behavior problems stem from boredom, which can be stymied by enriching their environment and involving them in activities, experts told the class.

So Nichols started training Skeezix to walk with a leash before he turned 1. It took a couple of weeks to get him used to a leash and a stroller. (Skeezix goes into the stroller when a dog approaches.)

“You must be patient and devote time to the training every day, but if it’s apparent after a week or so that your cat detests it, you need to give it up,” said Nichols, who lives in Castro Valley near San Francisco and is the managing editor of Mousebreath Media and mousebreath.com, an online cat lifestyle magazine.

The United States is home to more than 74 million pet cats, according to the American Pet Products Association.

Although the overwhelming majority of domestic cats likely have never been on a leash, every cat should be comfortable on a leash, in a carrier and traveling in a car, Nichols said.

Training a cat involves patience, repetition and food or treats while getting it used to wearing a snug harness, being leashed and walking. The Humane Society of the United States and the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals have instructions on their websites.

Whether a cat is ready for a walk depends on its personality. Friendly, curious, mellow and confident cats are good candidates, while scaredycats are usually indoor lurkers and prefer to stay that way, said Nancy Peterson, the humane society’s cat

programs manager and a registered veterinarian technician.

Disabled cats, including ones that are declawed, deaf or blind, should not be walked, because if they get loose, they cannot defend themselves, she added.

Unlike dogs, cats should be kept on a tight leash. With a longer lead — anything more than 6 feet — a frightened cat might shimmy under a car, jump over a fence or dive around a corner.

“You always want your cat in sight and within grabbing distance,” Peterson said.

Cat-walkers should watch out for poisonous plants, chemicals and insecticides and protect their feline charges against fleas, ticks, heartworm and other parasites, Peterson said.
