Trafficway bids come in lower than expected

Creativity in every corner

———

Work expected to begin next month

By Chad Lawhorn clawhorn@ljworld.com

A batch of low bids has the South Lawrence Trafficway on track to be completed by late 2016, and the company set to complete it is a Columbia, Mo.-based construction firm.

The bypass project, which has been in various stages of development and legal disputes for more than 25 years, cleared another major hurdle Wednesday as construction bids came in well below estimates. “They didn’t blow the budget, that’s for sure,� said Jonathan Marburger, project manager for the Kansas Department of Transportation.

Commissioner to respond to GOP LMH bracing for cuts from health reform claims about Under the Affordable Care Act, Common Core Lawrence Memorial Hospital will not

By Giles Bruce

gbruce@ljworld.com

With a major piece of the Affordable Care Act set to go into effect in less than two weeks, Lawrence Memorial Hospital is bracing for cuts in revenue resulting from the 2010 law and the state of Kansas’ subsequent decision to not participate in its Medicaid expansion.

During negotiations over the legislation, hospital associations agreed to reduce Medicare payments to help fund the increase in insured Americans, with the planned Medicaid expansion expected to make up for some of that lost revenue. However, after the U.S. Supreme Court ruled last year that states could opt out of loosening their Medicaid eligibility re-

get its annual Medicare reimbursement increase in 2014, projected at about $2.7 million, CEO Gene Meyer, right, said. Meanwhile, if Kansas had expanded its Medicaid program, the hospital would have received an additional $1.1 million in revenue.

quirements, several, including Kansas, did.

So under the Affordable Care Act, Lawrence Memorial Hospital will not get its annual Medicare reimbursement increase in 2014, projected at about $2.7 million, CEO Gene Meyer said at Wednesday’s LMH Board of Trustees meeting. Meanwhile, if Kansas had expand-

Kansas Education Commissioner Diane DeBacker plans to send what she described as a “friendly� letter to the state Republican Party this week, correcting what she and other education leaders are calling misinformation that the party is circulating about the Common Core Standards for reading and math.

That letter will be in response to a resolution that the Kansas GOP state committee adopted last weekend DeBacker calling for Kansas to withdraw from the Common Core Standards. “We saw the resolution about education in Kansas,� DeBacker said following Wednesday’s State Board of Education meeting,

ed its Medicaid program, the hospital would have received an additional $1.1 million in revenue. “The numbers are going to be real next year,� Meyer said. “The rate of increase we’re not going to get is significant.�

Another worry for LMH is that the cheapest plan being sold on the online health in-

surance exchange in Kansas, the bronze plan — there are also silver, gold and platinum versions — pays only 60 percent of costs, with the remaining 40 percent left to the patient. “We’ve got folks who are going to choose this plan because of the low premium.

Their ability to make up that 40 percent difference may be suspect,â€? Meyer said. “We’re very concerned about that from a ‌ financial standpoint about what that will do to our (accounts receivable) and bad debt activities.â€?

Still, he said, many people remain uninformed about the insurance exchanges, which begin open enrollment Oct. 1, and said the penalty for not having health insurance next

Juvenile facility limits toilet flushing to conserve water WICHITA (AP) — Sedgwick County inmates are undergoing more restroom rationing, but this time it’s in a bid to conserve water.

Inmates at the Sedgwick County Jail have been allowed one roll of toilet paper a week since June.

Now, inmates at Sedgwick County’s juvenile detention facility are limited to three flushes an hour, The Wichita Eagle reported.

The city estimated in May that Cheney Reservoir, the source of Wichita’s water, would be dry

by August 2015. In response, Sedgwick County Manager William Buchanan ordered an audit of water usage at all building owned by the county,

which spent $340,493 last year on water.

Recent rain has replenished the reservoir, but county officials said Tuesday the county wants to continue to reduce water use.

“It’s clear that we have an issue that needs to be dealt with if we’re going to grow as a community and that’s what do we do with our water resources? In some cases, we’re a pretty big user,” Buchanan said.

The audit this summer found that the jail was responsible for 55 percent of the county’s water usage, according to Jo Oliver, environmental project manager. The courthouse made up 10 percent of water usage, and the work-

release center and the juvenile detention facility accounted for 4 percent each.

Oliver said inmates at the juvenile detention facility can flush their toilets only three times an hour thanks to a sensor that limits flushing. There is a manual override for the toilet sensors in case of illness. The sensors, however, are not in place at the jail.

Sinks at the juvenile facility are also limited to 10 seconds of water flow per push, while jail sinks run for 30 seconds per push.

One recommendation from the audit is that the county also consider installing plumbing controls at the jail.

Topeka expands anti-discrimination ordinance TOPEKA (AP) — After lengthy debate, the Topeka City Council voted to expand the work of the city’s Human Relations Commission to include education about discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity.

The ordinance passed Tuesday by the council does not include any specific protections for people based on sexual orientation or gender identity.

was the apparent low bidder at $129.8 million. Engineers had estimated a construction cost of $150 million for the final leg of the trafficway, which will run from Iowa Street to Kansas Highway 10 on the eastern edge of Lawrence.

KDOT officials will spend about a week reviewing the bids before awarding a construction contract for the project.

Assuming the Emery Sapp & Sons bid checks out, the state is likely to issue a notice to proceed with the project by mid-October, Marburger said. He said he expects significant work will start taking place before the end of the year.

“If anything, it could start filling in portions of the wetlands before the end of the year,” Marburger said, referring to work in the Baker Wetlands.

That work is being done under a permit from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, which comes with a timeline for the work to be completed.

As the winner of the SLT bid, Emery Sapp & Sons also will build the extension of 31st Street from Haskell Avenue to O’Connell Road. Emery Sapp & Sons bid $3.9 million, the lowest of the six bids submitted. The two projects are being built together to gain efficiencies.

An official with Emery Sapp & Sons didn’t return a call Wednesday afternoon. Marburger said it wasn’t known how many jobs the construction project may add to the area, but he said it would be significant. He said it is the second largest road project in the state currently, trailing only a major bypass project in Johnson County.

“There will be a lot of workers staying in local hotels, eating local food, buying local products,” Marburger said. “There will be a definite spillover for the local economy.”

Once completed, the new six-mile section of trafficway will connect to the already-completed western portion of the roadway, which currently dead-ends at Iowa Street in south Lawrence. The

Kathy Clausing-Willis, vice president/chief development officer for LMH, announced that the recent Perry Jones Open golf tournament in Lawrence had 350 golfers and raised $115,000 for the LMH Endowment Association, an increase over last year. The annual event has brought in

completed bypass will carry traffic from Interstate 70, the Kansas Turnpike, west of Lawrence to Kansas Highway 10 east of Lawrence, allowing thru traffic to avoid 23rd Street and other city streets.

Construction on the project has been halted since the mid-1990s when the western portion of the road was completed.

Lawsuits filed by environmental groups, the Prairie Band Potawatomie Nation and other organizations created a series of legal battles over the environmental damage the road’s route through the Baker Wetlands would create and also on the impact to the cultural and historical significance the wetlands have for American Indians and other groups.

But the legal challenges ended after the 10th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in July 2012 issued a ruling that cleared the way for the project, and the environmental mitigation efforts, which include building about 300 acres of manmade wetlands to replace the approximately 55 acres of wetlands that will be taken for the project.

a total of $1.3 million for LMH. “It really is a way we come together as a community, even if you don’t play golf, to support the hospital,” Clausing-Willis said.

Sheryle D’Amico, vice president of the hospital’s physicians division, said LMH continues to actively recruit endocrinologists and rheumatologists in Lawrence, two medical specialties the community needs. She added that LMH recently signed on a new oncologist and a new neurologist is joining an existing practice in town.

A reminder of fragility

Regents decide budget priorities, concessions

By Scott Rothschild srothschild@ljworld.com

TOPEKA â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Members of the Kansas Board of Regents said Wednesday they will seek restoration of higher-education budget cuts from the Kansas Legislature, but they backed off a proposal to keep university tuition flat in return for the state funding.

Regents Chairman Fred Logan said the tuition proposal would not be part of the regentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; budget re-

Restoration of budget cuts to be sought, but not in return for flat tuition quest submitted to Gov. Sam Brownback and the Legislature for the next session, which starts in January. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We decided to wait and see what happens,â&#x20AC;?

Logan, of Leawood, said after a brief budget discussion. The board will take final action on its

budget request today.

Last month, the regents discussed the possibility of keeping tuition flat next year if the Legislature restored $34.3 million in state funding cuts over two years to public universities.

DAVID GERSTMANN, ABOVE, OF EUDORA, constructs the walls of a sukkah Wednesday in the backyard of the Rohr Chabad Center for Jewish Life, 1201 W. 19th St., in preparation for the Jewish holiday of Sukkot. Starting Wednesday evening, those celebrating the Sukkot holiday will spend time in sukkahs over eight days and nights. Sukkah huts are intended to remind Jewish people who are celebrating Sukkot of the fragile dwellings in which Israelites lived during the 40 years they traveled through the desert following the Exodus from Egypt during biblical times. In the photo below, Rabbi Zalman Tiechtel, left, and Kansas University junior Hal Massel, of Chicago, finish the roof on the sukkah.

For more than 20 years, the Hiratsuka campus of Kanagawa University has been the â&#x20AC;&#x153;KU of the Eastâ&#x20AC;? and sees Kansas University as the â&#x20AC;&#x153;KU of the West.â&#x20AC;? That designation comes not just from the shared initials but also because Hiratsuka has been Lawrenceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sister city since 1990.

After arriving late Monday evening, a delegation from Kanagawa has been touring Lawrence and the KU campus this week. Masaru Ishizumi, president of Kanagawa University, has been making these semi-

regular visits to Lawrence and the KU campus since the sisterhood formed b e t w e e n Ishizumi the universities.

Along with meeting with his Lawrence counterpart, KU Chancellor Bernadette Gray-Little, and other college officials, Ishizumi lectured a KU class, attended a City Commission meeting and dined at Pachamamas.

Presiding over a major Japanese university and

regularly visiting a large public university in the U.S. gives Ishizumi a rare view into the two countriesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; higher education systems. In an interview, Ishizumi said that, in many ways, higher education in the U.S. and Japan are becoming more similar, though some striking differences remain.

In both countries, universities went from educating a relatively small, elite segment of the population to far larger student bodies from varying socioeconomic backgrounds.

But Republican legislative leaders, who had pushed for the budget cuts during the last legislative session, blasted the proposal, saying the board was trying to hold students and their parents hostage for more state funding.

Logan said the criticism wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t the reason for abandoning the proposal.

He said the regents wanted to see what Brownback proposed for higher education and how the Legislature responded.

Brownback has said he wants to restore the funding cuts. But legislative leaders have been critical of higher-education spending, and they have scheduled a series of information-gathering meetings next month on university campuses.

The cuts represented an across-the-board reduction and salary reductions that varied greatly in percentage among the universities. KUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cut totaled about $5.3 million (a

total of 3.8 percent) over two years, while the Kansas University Medical Center cuts totaled $8.3 million (8.2 percent) over two years.

In addition to restoring the cut funds, regents indicated that their top priority would be pushing again for construction of a $75 million health education building at KUMC. The regents made a request last year for the building to be financed through a combination of state funding, a FICA refund and private donations. But the Legislatureâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s budget made no commitment for state funding.

The regents also are asking for $8 million in new state funding for technical education.

The various schools have made their own funding requests for specific items, but Logan said he doubted all of those would be approved by the Legislature and Brownback. However, he said, getting those requests before policymakers will set the stage for budget talks in future years.

In the new budget request before the regents, KU also is seeking $4.5 million to â&#x20AC;&#x153;stabilizeâ&#x20AC;? the expansion to a four-year curriculum at the School of Medicine in Wichita, $2.8 million for course redesign and online technologies and $2.5 million for an institute that will be focused on promoting chemical biology research, drug discovery and development.

FRANK’S NORTH STAR TAVERN OWNER FRANK DORSEY, DRESSED AS JASON VOORHEES from the Friday the 13th movies, competes in an indoor bicycle race at Frank’s North Star Tavern, 508 Locust St., on Friday, as Michele Berendsen holds his machete while cheering him on. Since it opened last year, the bar in North Lawrence has hosted unique events to give it a different vibe from other bars in town. BELOW: An exterior of Frank’s is pictured.

omething that sets Frank’s North Star Tavern apart from bars found on the opposite side of the Kansas River is the more “mature” crowd, said owner Frank Dorsey.

But if you were to step foot inside this North Lawrence dive bar on Friday the 13th, you would have seen people of all ages waiting to compete in its second “Indoor Roller Races” while sporting attire from sombreros and reflector vests, to kilts and various animal costumes, and, of course, a woman

carrying a miniature E.T. It’s exactly how it sounds.

Two bikes attached to rollers to remain stationary, hooked up to a computer to track the 300-meter race and the speed of the two competitors. All of this in the middle of a rowdy crowd guzzling 8-Bit beer infused with fruit, the special that came with the $10 entry fee for three races (proceeds went to the Ballard Center). And just in case of too much, ahem, excitement, there was a bucket in between the two bicycles.

“If you do this while drink-

ing, one of the side effects may be vomiting,” said Aaron Apel, emcee of the event and owner of Big Poppi Bicycle Company.

“It’s only happened once, but we do have this really neat bucket here labeled ‘spew.’”

Dorsey admits this sort of thing wasn’t in mind when he opened the bar at 508 Locust St. with his wife, Sarah Mathews, in May of last year. But he was looking for a different vibe than Mass. Street bars.

THEATER PREVIEW

OFF THE BEATEN PLATE

By Sara Shepherd

Theatre Lawrence kicks off its Sunday shoes

By John R. Phythyon Jr. Special to the Journal-World

Annette Cook has been waiting a long time for this opportunity. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve wanted to direct a show here forever,â&#x20AC;? she says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When I got the call, and they asked me, I was over the moon. I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t even care what show it was.â&#x20AC;?

The show is â&#x20AC;&#x153;Footloose,â&#x20AC;? the stage adaptation of the 1984 blockbuster film. The movie featured veteran actors John Lithgow and Dianne Wiest and made a star of Kevin Bacon. A seminal film for many in Generation X, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the kind of show that can be daunting to take on.

Cook, though, was unfazed. A veteran performer at Theatre Lawrence and an experienced director in other venues, she wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t worried about expectations. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think you have to handle it from where your generation sees it now,â&#x20AC;? she says of the movieâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s popularity.

The show tells the story of Ren McCormick, who moves from Chicago to a small town where dancing is illegal. The charismatic minister of the local church is grieving the loss of his son, who died after coming home from a rock concert. Sweeping the townsfolk up in his anguish, he has everyone convinced that modern music and dancing are sinful temptations that lead one down a path of destruction. Ren, a talented

Cook says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also sexual abuse in Chuck and Arielâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s relationship.â&#x20AC;?

Played by Noelle Olson, Ariel is the teenage daughter of Reverend Shaw Moore. Like her father, she grieves her brotherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s death, but she is also a wild child, rebelling against her fatherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s laws.

Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s drawn to Renâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s bigcity background, and that causes trouble between her and Chuck, her abusive boyfriend, played by Christoph Cording. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There are some scenes between Chuck and Ariel that are pretty intense,â&#x20AC;?

Cook says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Christoph and Noelle have been really

Cook prefers putting things in the actorsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; hands, letting them try what they think is necessary. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We just started and let it go where it needed to,â&#x20AC;? she says of the showâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s themes. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We talked about it and let it grow.â&#x20AC;?

The same is true she says of Jim Hurdâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x201D; who plays Shaw Moore â&#x20AC;&#x201D; deft handling of the complexi-

Dorsey said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I worked on Massachusetts for a long time. I got married, and I have a child now. I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to necessarily be out that late. I just want a comfortable place to hang out that is not really that loud and obnoxious.â&#x20AC;?

Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s had his fair share of diverse bartending experiences. While he has worked at Tellers, Rickâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s, and The Bourgeois Pig, Dorsey also bartended in New York City and Cambridge, England. One of his most colorful customers was a one-eyed hash dealer who used to be a Hellâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Angel in what he calls the â&#x20AC;&#x153;dodgiest part of Cambridge.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;He would take his eyeball out and put it in

Jim doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t portray him as a screaming-and-yelling, fire-and-brimstone type, but you see the contrast of Sara Shepherd/Journal-World Photo where he is at the start of Birdâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Nest Noodles at Encore CafĂŠ, 1007 Massachusetts St. the show versus where he is at the end.â&#x20AC;?

BISHOP GERALD SEABROOKS shows a statement by Cathleen Alexis, mother of Washington Navy Yard gunman Aaron Alexis, Wednesday in Brooklyn, N.Y. Cathleen Alexis said she does not know why her son did what he did and she will never be able to ask him. Alexis opened fire Monday, killing 12 people, before he was killed in a shootout with police.

Security reviews ordered in response to Navy shooting

By Lolita C. Baldor Associated Press

WASHINGTON â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel has ordered two sweeping reviews of military security and employee screening programs, acknowledging Wednesday that â&#x20AC;&#x153;a lot of red flagsâ&#x20AC;? may have been missed in the background of the Washington Navy Yard shooter.

Two days after former Navy reservist Aaron Alexis gunned down 12 people in a shooting rampage inside the Navy base, Pentagon leaders struggled with whether a string of minor arrests, mental health issues and other behavioral problems should have been enough to strip him of his security clearance or deny him access to the secure facility in southeast Washington.

Navy Secretary Ray Mabus, meanwhile, announced Wednesday night that he wants three rapid reviews completed

by Oct. 1, including whether a contracting company should inform the Navy if it decides to review a workerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s security clear-

ance.

That order raises questions a b o u t whether the company that employed Alexis, the Alexis Floridabased IT consulting firm The Experts, had decided to review his clearance. A security clearance often is critical for contractors working in defense jobs.

Law enforcement officials have said they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t yet have a motive for Alexisâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; shooting rampage.

Mabus also ordered a review of Alexisâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; service record to determine whether his conduct problems while in the Navy should have threatened his ability to keep his security clearance.

And the secretary asked for a broader look at what types of behavior should trigger a re-evaluation of a personâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s clearance.

The reviews underscore widespread concerns that there are gaps in the current procedures for screening workers, particularly for conduct

or mental health problems and other changes that occur over time. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Obviously, there were a lot of red flagsâ&#x20AC;? about Alexis, Hagel told reporters at a Pentagon briefing. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Why they didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get picked, why they didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get incorporated into the clearance process, what he was doing, those are all legitimate questions that weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to be dealing with.â&#x20AC;?

But Gen. Martin Dempsey, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, said he still believes that those who have served in the military should not be stigmatized by having to answer questions about their mental health status on security clearance forms.

In recent years, Dempsey and other military leaders had argued that service members â&#x20AC;&#x201D; many of whom have been plagued by stress disorders and other problems after multiple deployments in more than a decade of war â&#x20AC;&#x201D; should have the opportunity to overcome their mental health challenges without being stigmatized.

BRIEFLY News Stock market sets Channel record; stimulus kept conducted NEW YORK â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The stock market hit a record high Wednesday as investors cheered the Federal Reserveâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s surprise decision to keep its economic stimulus program in place.

Stocks traded slightly lower throughout the morning, but took off immediately after the Fedâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s decision in the early afternoon. Bond yields fell sharply â&#x20AC;&#x201D; their biggest move in nearly two years. The price of gold had its biggest one-day jump in four years as traders anticipated that the Fedâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s decision might cause inflation.

Fed policymakers decided to maintain the central bankâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s $85 billion in monthly bond purchases, a program that has been in place since December 2012. The bond purchases encouraged borrowing by keeping interest rates low and encouraging investors to buy stocks by making bonds more expensive in comparison.

The Dow Jones industrial average jumped 147.21 points, or 1 percent, to 15,676.94, also above its previous record high of 15,658.36 from Aug. 2.

Assad denies chemical attack WASHINGTON â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Syrian President Bashar Assad said a United Nations report finding â&#x20AC;&#x153;clear and convincing evidenceâ&#x20AC;? sarin nerve gas was used in Syria painted an â&#x20AC;&#x153;unrealisticâ&#x20AC;? account, and he denied his government orchestrated the attack.

In an interview with Fox

in the Syrian capital of Damascus and aired Wednesday, Assad Assad said terrorists were to blame for the chemical attack, which the U.S. says killed more than 1,400 people, including hundreds of children.

He said evidence that terrorist groups have used sarin gas has been turned over to Russia and that Russia, through one of its satellites, has evidence that the rockets in the Aug. 21 attack were launched from another area.

While the U.N. report did not lay blame, many experts interpreting the report said all indications were that the attack was conducted by Assad forces.

Starbucks says guns not welcome NEW YORK â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Starbucks has always set itself apart by taking strong positions on progressive political issues. Now that reputation has landed the company in the middle of the heated national debate over gun laws.

Today, the Seattle-based company will run full-page ads in major newspapers, telling customers that guns are no longer welcome in its cafes. But Starbucks is stopping short of an outright ban, exposing the fine line it needs to walk on a highly divisive issue. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are not pro-gun or anti-gun,â&#x20AC;? CEO Howard Schultz said in an interview,

noting that customers will still be served if they choose to a carry gun.

The move comes as the company finds itself at the center of a fight it didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t start. In recent months, gun control advocates have been pressuring Starbucks to ban firearms, while supporters of gun rights have celebrated the companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s decision to defer to local laws. About a month ago, Starbucks shut down a store in Newtown, Conn. early to avoid a demonstration by gun rights advocates. They had planned to stage a â&#x20AC;&#x153;Starbucks Appreciation Day,â&#x20AC;? bringing their firearms and turning the company into an unwitting supporter of gun rights.

France may ban child pageants PARIS â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Child beauty pageants may soon be banned in France after a surprise vote in the French Senate that rattled the pageant industry and raised questions about how the French relate to girlsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; sexuality.

Such contests, and the made-up, dolled-up beauty queens they produce, have the power to both fascinate and repulse, and have drawn criticism in several countries. France appears to be out front in pushing an outright ban.

French legislators stopped short of approving a measure banning anyone under 16 from modeling products meant for grownups â&#x20AC;&#x201D; a sensitive subject in a country renowned for its fashion and cosmetics industries and about to host Paris Fashion Week.

Distracting signs City officials should consider ways to rein in the use of sign-waving advertisers at busy city intersections.

A

recent story in the Journal-World pretty much put to rest any questions about whether waving an advertising sign at a busy intersection in Lawrence is a job most people would want.

The question that it didn’t answer, however — and the question city officials perhaps should ask themselves — is whether those signs constitute a nuisance that should be addressed by a city ordinance.

When reporter Chad Lawhorn talked to the sign-wavers at 23rd and Iowa streets, he learned that it was common for motorists to wave at the workers or perhaps offer a less-friendly gesture. When Lawhorn invited motorists to express their opinion of the sign-wavers by honking their horns, the drivers complied.

With all the current research and conversation about drivers being distracted by cell phones or other electronic devices, it seems logical to ask whether these human billboards at busy intersections constitute a dangerous distraction.

When motorists are waving, honking or just reading the signs, their attention is being drawn from their primary activity: driving. It’s not hard to imagine that distraction contributing to rear-end collisions or more serious accidents.

City officials say sign-holders in the public right of way don’t need to have permits and attempts to regulate the practice would be complicated by concerns about protecting First Amendment rights to expression. Nonetheless, it seems that there would be ways to rein in a business practice that many residents find visually annoying, if not hazardous.

The city may not be able to regulate political speech, but could it eliminate signs that are being waved to advertise a commercial venture? Or require that sign-holders advertising a business be located within a certain number of feet of that business?

Nothing against the intersection signwavers personally, but many people see them as not only distracting to drivers but also detracting from the general appearance of the city. The business owners who use them must think they attract customers, but some observers may wonder whether the sign-wavers project the kind of image a business would want to foster.

The city has all kinds of regulations governing the placement of permanent signs in the community. The goal of those restrictions is to contribute to a desirable visual character in the city and to make sure signs don’t obstruct the view of motorists. From both a safety and aesthetic standpoint, regulating human signboards at busy intersections might be worth a look by city officials.

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for Sept. 19, 1913: “Mrs. Shearer has decided to close out her store here and this will be YEARS done at once. Mrs. Shearer has AGO worked mighty hard for years and IN 1913 has not made any money. She was supposed to have been a rich woman when her husband died but an inventory of the estate showed it was only a shell. She went to work to manage the business herself and being without experience she made mistakes and she paid dearly for every one. Mrs. Shearer has been a mighty fine woman all these years. The Journal-World has known Mrs. Shearer well for many years and it knows there is not a squarer woman on earth.”

Colleges have lost control of football WASHINGTON — Like baby birds with yawning beaks, college football fans clamor to be fed. So fasten the chin strap on your helmet — ignore the warning label on it (“No helmet system can protect you from serious brain and/or neck injuries including paralysis or death. To avoid these risks, do not engage in the sport of football.”) and enjoy the seasonal festival of physical carnage, institutional derangement and moral seaminess.

LSU offensive tackle Josh Williford, 22, will, however, leave his helmet off, having just retired rather than risk another concussion. A third concussion triples the risk of clinical depression for those with no prior symptoms, and autopsies performed on 334 deceased NFL players “found that they were three times more likely than the general population to suffer from neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s and ALS (Lou Gehrig’s disease).” These figures are from a Wall Street Journal essay defending football from critics. These critics must admit that big-time college football, although a peculiar appendage of institutions of higher learning, is at least adding to our knowledge of brains by fueling studies of chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE), the cumulative effect of repeated small “subconcussive” blows to the head.

Football’s doughty defenders note that other recreational activities, such as bicycling, injure more participants. But only in

“

The broadcast and cable organizations that pay billions for the rights to televise football have an incentive to not call attention to health problems.” football is long-term injury the result not of accidents but of the game played properly, meaning within the rules. Rules could be changed by, for example, eliminating kickoffs with their highvelocity collisions and barring the three-point stance whereby linemen begin each play with their heads down and helmetto-helmet collisions are likely.

But such changes could be made only over the dead bodies of fans who relish mayhem from safe distances.

The broadcast and cable organizations that pay billions for the rights to televise football have an incentive to not call attention to health problems. Gushers of money are generated by football’s amateurs, who enable other people to get rich while getting fired.

Gregg Easterbrook, an intel-

ligent journalist who nevertheless loves football, has a new book (“The King of Sports: Football’s Impact on America”) that is hardly a love letter. “At many big-college sports programs,” he writes, “the athletic department is structured as an independent organization that leases campus space and school logos, then operates a tax-exempt business over which the school’s president and board of trustees have little control.”

Easterbrook notes that when Auburn won the 2010 national championship, its net football income was $37 million, just a bit less than the $43 million of that season’s NFL champion, the Green Bay Packers. Auburn’s head coach, Gene Chizik, was paid $3.5 million that year (in most states, the highest paid person on the public payroll is a university coach), a sum justified because, said Auburn’s $600,000 athletic director, “Coach Chizik is a great mentor to our student-athletes.”

Two years later, Chizik’s mentoring greatness counted for less than his 3-9 record. He was fired, the blow cushioned by a $7.5 million buyout, more than the approximately $5 million Auburn had paid to buy out Chizik’s predecessor. In 2012, the University of Tennessee fired its losing coach with a $5 million severance — and the athletic department (annual revenue, more than $70 million) was given a threeyear exemption from its annual $6 million contribution to the university’s academic side.

In 2011, Michigan paid $1 million to San Diego State University so Michigan could hire SDSU’s coach, paying him $3.3 million (plus up to $500,000 in bonuses for victories) to replace the fired coach to whom Michigan had paid a $2.5 million severance. That was the same sum Michigan had paid in a buyout to pry the coach it was firing away from West Virginia. In 2011, Texas Tech gave its head coach a $500,000 raise while freezing faculty salaries.

Payoffs can be financed by selling everything, including the naming rights to football positions. The 2007 North Carolina State media guide thanked people for “scholarship endowments,” including the “Ed ‘Scooter’ Mooney Nose Guard Scholarship,” the “Longley Family Punter Scholarship” and 12 others.

Meanwhile, to preserve college football’s purity, the NCAA has approximately 70 pages of stern rules about dealing with recruits: “An institution may provide fruit, nuts and bagels to a student-athlete at any time.” Cookies? See the relevant regulation. In 2008, Easterbrook notes, the Raleigh News & Observer “reported that University of North Carolina football and men’s basketball players were enrolled in email Swahili ‘courses’ that had no instructors and never met and always led to A’s.”

There was, however, no evidence of cookie corruption.

PUBLIC FORUM

Federal rights

Just asking: Is America crazy?

Is America crazy?

Twelve people killed at a secure naval installation virtually on the front porch of the federal government, eight others hurt, the shooter shot to death, and it’s just another manic Monday, another day in the life of a nation under the gun. So yes, maybe it’s time we acknowledged that gorilla in the back seat, time we asked the painfully obvious.

Is America crazy?

You know, don’t you, that Muslims watched this unfold with a prayer on their lips: “Don’t let him be a Muslim.

Don’t let him be a Muslim.

Please don’t let him be a Muslim.” Because they know — the last 12 years have forcefully taught them — how the actions of a lone madman can be used to tar an entire cause, religion or people.

In the end, almost as if in refutation of our ready-made narratives and practiced outrage, the shooter turns out to be a black Buddhist from Texas. It is a uniquely American amalgam that defies our love of easy, simplistic categories.

As we are thus deprived of ready-made cultural blame, the story will likely fall now into a well-worn groove. Someone will disinter Wayne LaPierre of the NRA from whatever crypt they keep him in between tragedies and he will say what he always does about how this could have been avoided if only more people in this secure military facility had been armed. And we will have the argument we always have about a constitutional amendment written in an era when muskets were state of the art and citizen militias guarded the frontier. And politicians will say the things they always

Indeed, for all our historical courage, we are in many ways a terrified people. Scared of the face at the window, the rattle at the door, the Other who wants to take our stuff.”

say and nothing will change.

Is America crazy?

Infoplease.com, the online version of the old Information Please almanac, maintains a list of school shootings and mass shootings internationally since 1996. Peruse it and one thing leaps out. Though such tragedies have touched places as far-flung as Carmen de Patagones, Argentina, and Erfurt, Germany, the list is absolutely dominated

by American towns: Tucson, Memphis, Cold Spring, Red Lake, Tacoma, Jacksonville, Aurora, Oakland, Newtown. No other country even comes close.

In 1968, when Robert Kennedy became the victim of the fifth political assassination in five years, the historian Arthur Schlesinger famously asked a question: “What sort of people are we, we Americans? Today, we are the most frightening people on this planet.”

Forty-five years later, we

may or may not still be the most frightening. But we are surely among the most frightened.

Indeed, for all our historical courage, we are in many ways a terrified people.

Scared of the face at the window, the rattle at the door, the Other who wants to take our stuff. Scared of the overthrow of one of the most stable governments on earth.

So we arm ourselves to the tune of a reported 300 million guns in a nation of 316 million souls — no other country has more guns per capita. Americans, you see, don’t just like and use guns. We worship guns, mythologize guns, fetishize guns. Cannot conceive of ourselves without guns.

Thus, the idea of restricting access to them threatens something fundamental. Apparently, we’d rather endure these tragedies that repeat themselves that repeat themselves that repeat themselves as if on some diabolical loop, than explore reasonable solutions.

Is that a quantifiable malady, a treatable disorder?

Is America crazy?

Last week, the Des Moines Register reported that the state of Iowa issues gun carry permits to blind people. And people began debating this on grounds of constitutionality and equal access as if the very idea were not absurd on its face.

Is America crazy?

Look at those people fleeing the Navy Yard, look at the Senate on lockdown, look at the blind man packing. Ask yourself: Does that look like sanity to you?

— Leonard Pitts Jr.is a columnist for the Miami Herald.

To the editor: It is fitting and proper that the movie “The Butler” be shown on the 50th anniversary of that historic speech delivered so eloquently by Martin Luther King. Although parts of the movie are fictionalized, the sections having to do with the struggle for civil rights are real and heart-wrenching. The white mobs who threatened and humiliated those wishing to obtain some justice in this “Christian” nation are also real.

As I watched the shameful actions of state and law enforcement officials, it brought to mind the words of conservative mouthpieces Newt Gingrich, Bill O’Reilly and Rush Limbaugh. Why do blacks in this country identify with big government, they ask? It must be because they get a lot of “free stuff.”

You are wrong again, gentlemen. Blacks identify with big government because that entity was the only one to stand up to statesanctioned white mob rule. Thankfully, our presidents had more compassion than did the white masses.

If I was a member of a minority in this country, would I trust state government to protect me from discrimination? Absolutely not! Just look at the shenanigans being perpetrated in our own state to disenfranchise voters. If it wasn’t for federal laws, some of us would have no rights at all.

KANSAS CITY ROYALS’ BILLY BUTLER (16) AND ERIC HOSMER CELEBRATE after scoring on a two-run double by Salvador Perez during the first inning against the Cleveland Indians, Wednesday in Kansas City, Mo. The Royals won, 7-2.

By Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

Royals rebound with 7-2 victory KANSAS CITY, MO. (AP) — Manager Ned Yost’s faith in Bruce Chen paid off for the Kansas City Royals.

Chen worked five innings and Salvador Perez doubled home two runs and the Royals beat the Cleveland Indians 7-2 on Wednesday night.

The Royals, who have not made the playoffs since 1985, are 2 1/2 games back in the wild-card standings, while the Indians are a half-game behind.

“I felt really good about Bruce being on the hill for us,” Yost said. “I just felt his veteran experience was going to be crucial in a big game like this. My mindset was to get him through the lineup twice and if we had any lead at all, to do some maneuvering.

“A game of this magnitude you don’t play around.

We’ve got 10 games left. You don’t play (around) with 10 games left especially when they are this big. You get it out of the way and then you worry about tomorrow tomorrow.”

Yost did some bullpen maneuvering to keep the lead.

“Every single game is a must win,” Chen said. “We’re behind. We’re trying to catch up. The bullpen did an outstanding job. We have the best bullpen in the American League.”

Chen was pulled in the sixth after giving up a single to Michael Bourn and walking Nick Swisher to lead off the inning.

“He does what he does,” Indians manager Terry Francona said of Chen. “He’s up, down, in, out. Nothing the same speed. He takes the sting out of your bat. He really knows how to pitch.”

Francisley Bueno replaced Chen and recorded two outs with three pitches.

After Jeff Kipnis advanced the runners with a sacrifice bunt, Bueno kept the runners put when Carlos Santana grounded out to third baseman Mike Moustakas. Louis Coleman came in and retired Ryan Raburn on a fly to right to strand the runners.

Royals relievers Tim Collins, Will Smith and Greg Holland preserved the lead, allowing just one hit, to keep the team’s playoff chances alive.

The Royals broke the game open with three runs off four Indians pitchers in the eighth. Alcides Escobar had a two-run single on a fullcount off Carlos Carrasco, while Jarrod Dyson walked with the bases loaded.

“The last at-bat, that’s one of my best at-bats of the year,” Escobar said. “I was Please see ROYALS, page 4B

MINNESOTA VIKINGS DEFENSIVE TACKLE CHRISTIAN BALLARD makes his way to the field during NFL football training camp, July 29 in Mankato, Minn. Ballard, a former Free State High standout, left Vikings camp on Aug. 18 and revealed to USA Today in a story published Wednesday that he has retired from the NFL.

Former Free State High three-sport superstar Christian Ballard has had a whirlwind past month in which he: Q Left Minnesota Vikings training camp on Aug. 18, citing personal reasons.

Q Married Victoria Hallenbeck on Aug. 30 in a Lawrence courthouse.

Q Was arrested with Hallenbeck on Thursday for domestic battery. The couple spent 29 hours in jail after an argument in their apartment, according to Casey Ballard, Christian’s father.

Q Revealed to USA Today in a story published Wednesday that he retired because, “I wasn’t really having a good time playing football. It wasn’t fun for me.”

Reached by phone at his Lawrence home Wednesday night, Ballard’s father said his son’s decision did not shock him.

“It wasn’t surprising for a lot of reasons I’m not going to go into,” Casey Ballard said. “I can say he’s happy now and that’s pretty much all that matters.”

Lions out to prove mettle against 6A champs

By Benton Smith basmith@ljworld.com

There has been no time this week for Lawrence High’s football players to recover from the wounds inflicted upon their psyches and self-images by Shawnee Mission East in a 23-point home loss on Friday.

Not with defending Class 6A state champion Shawnee Mission West (2-0, ranked No. 1 in 6A by Kpreps.com) awaiting the Lions tonight — kickoff at 7 — at Shawnee Mission South District Stadium.

The Vikings beat LHS twice last season, and will face the Lions (0-2) for the third time in 14 games. But past results, Lions coach Dirk Wedd said, are only one of the problems facing his team.

“I’m more concerned with the short week (playing on a Thursday),” Wedd said, “because our kids need a lot of coaching, a lot of teaching.”

LAWRENCE HIGH QUARTERBACK NYLE ANDERSON (13) DROPS BACK to pass as Drew Green (41) blocks against Shawnee Mission East, Friday at LHS. The Lions lost, 26-3, and hope to play better against defending Class 6A state champion Shawnee Mission West tonight.

Lawrence’s staff has poured information into its young players as fast as they can absorb it. Senior center Kyle Wittman said as the Lions make corrections, they want to move past their 26-3 loss to SME. “Last week was last week,” Wittman said. “We’re not really worried about last week

anymore. We’re 0-2 and we’re dealing with it.”

Forgetting the past becomes easier, senior receiver and linebacker Kieran Severa said, with the anticipation of competing against the team considered by many to be the best in the state.

“We’re playing someone who’s gonna challenge us,” Se-

vera said, “and we want to find out what kind of team we are.”

The Vikings’ top skill players — receiver Andre Maloney (who verbally committed to Kansas), quarterback AJ Verdini and receiver Justin Hobbs — helped SMW defeat Olathe South, 23-8, last week.

Knowing how overpowering the Vikings can be at times, Wedd gave his players a simple approach for tonight.

“We’re gonna win the first quarter, come hell or high water,” the coach told them.

“And then let’s try to win the second quarter, and let’s get to halftime and see where we’re at.

“A team like us, we need to win a football game,” the coach added, “but we also need to put some small goals out there that we can attain.”

Wittman said the Lions heard their coaches’ message, loud and clear.

“With a team that good, the game’s never won or lost

KU O-line moves overhaul toughness, not chemistry “

We just have to be more physical and assignment-sound when we’re out there.”

— KU left tackle Aslam Sterling on recent O-line changes

By Matt Tait

mtait@ljworld.com

With a couple of changes affecting KU’s offensive line this week, it’s logical to wonder if putting senior Riley Spencer into the starting lineup and opening up the competition between Pat Lewandowski and Dylan Admire at center will have an impact on the chemistry up front.

Senior left tackle Aslam Sterling, the only lineman who KU coach Charlie Weis

said looked decent in last week’s loss at Rice, does not think the changes spell trouble.

“I don’t think it’s gonna be starting all over,” Sterling said. “Because, as a group, we’re all really close and are able to communicate with each other. We just have to be more physical and assignment-sound when we’re out there.”

Furthermore, the new faces up front don’t figure to change the way things flow for the rest of the offense.

“It won’t be a factor,” said running backs coach Reggie Mitchell. “Because all those guys who are getting plugged in, they’ve been in practice, they’ve been in the rotation. It won’t be that big of a deal for the running backs.”

Time to hit Weis did not hide his disappointment about his team’s struggle to slug it out with Rice last week, and many of the changes he made this week were with done

with the idea of getting more toughness onto the field.

“You only have two choices,” said Weis when asked about KU’s lack of physicality. “Guys get better or you tweak them and make a couple moves.”

The depth chart changes have been well documented, but Sterling said Weis made other moves to help breed a more physical football team.

“Last week, we practiced pads on Tuesday and no Please see FOOTBALL, page 3B

Reid downplays return to Philly PHILADELPHIA (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Andy Reid cleared his throat, uttered some familiar phrases and downplayed his return to Philadelphia.

Same old Andy. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not where Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m at right now,â&#x20AC;? Reid said when asked if itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to be emotional when his Kansas City Chiefs (2-0) play the Eagles (1-1) tonight. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t feel that way. If we werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t playing a football game against a good football team, maybe your mind goes there. I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t see my mind going there.

My mind is going to be on the job at hand and what weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got to get accomplished in a tough place to play.â&#x20AC;?

Clearly, Reid is still a stoic guy. But he also has to be aware of the spicy plot in which he is the centerpiece?

Reid led the Eagles to nine playoff appearances, six division titles, five NFC championship games and one Super Bowl before he was fired after going 4-12 last year in his 14th season.

While heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s off to an excellent start with the Chiefs, who were 2-14 last year, Chip Kelly has reinvigorated the Eagles and their fans with his fast-paced offense and all-around energy. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I have great respect for Andy,â&#x20AC;? Kelly said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re a coach in the NFL, anybody head coaches in one spot for 14 years, you kind of look to them and say, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Holy Smokes!â&#x20AC;&#x2122; If you just walk down these hallways and look at the championships, the division championships, the conference championships, what heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s done, heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s had a huge impact on this organization. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not a lot of guys out there in this profession that carry themselves, from a coaching standpoint, when you get a chance to be around them, like Andy Reid.â&#x20AC;?

Several other coaches

on Kansas Cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s staff worked with Reid in Philadelphia, including offensive coordinator Doug Pederson. ...

Chiefs RB Jamaal Charles is averaging 4.1 yards per carry, far below career average of 5.7, which is tied with Hall of Famer Marion Motley for first alltime. ... Chiefs are tied for NFL high with nine sacks. ... Eagles RB LeSean McCoy needs one TD rushing to tie Randall Cunningham for fourth on all-time list with 32. ... WR DeSean Jackson (5,453) trails Hall of Famer Tommy McDonald (5,521) by 68 yards for 12th on teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all-time list for yards from scrimmage. Jackson is trying to become first Eagle to have three straight 100-yard receiving games since Terrell Owens in 2004. ...

CB Brandon Boykin has interception and forced fumble in first two games. ... Eagles have already forced six turnovers after getting just 13 last year. ... LB Trent Cole has forced fumbles in consecutive games, his first two games since switching from defensive end.

best 237 yards rushing, the Eagles are second in the league with 352 yards on the ground.

The Chiefsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; defense is second against the run, allowing 54 yards per game. Something has to give. Last week, the Chargers geared up to stop the run, so McCoy had a big day catching the ball. KC may be strong enough up front to contain the run without having to commit an extra defender in the box.

The team that wins this battle likely wins the game. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Their front seven is pretty good,â&#x20AC;? McCoy said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;So far, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the most complete defense weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve played. But with the offense we have, it falls on us. We just have to execute.â&#x20AC;?

Pass-happy Andy vs. porous secondary: Reid always has employed a pass-first philosophy and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no different with the Chiefs. Alex Smith has thrown on 59 percent of Kansas Cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s plays, excluding his scrambles that probably started as pass plays. The Eaglesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; woeful sec-

ondary only gives Reid more incentive to pass, allowing 748 yards passing, third worst in the league. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They try to give you a lot of unorthodox looks,â&#x20AC;? Smith said of Philadelphiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s defense. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have to be on with our communication. Loud stadium, so everyone is going to have to be on the same page.â&#x20AC;?

Blocking Poe: Chiefs nose tackle Dontari Poe already has 3 1/2 sacks, including 2 1/2 on Tony Romo last week. The big guy is a disruptive force and presents a difficult challenge for the Eagles. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s big, heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s got really good feet, he looks strong in his upper body. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a smart player, too,â&#x20AC;?

Eagles right guard Todd Herremans said.

Mistake-free Mike: Michael Vick is off to an excellent start in Chip Kellyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s up-tempo offense. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s making smart decisions, protecting the ball and operating the read option to perfection. Vick threw for a

KANSAS CITY, MO. (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The Kansas City Chiefs have released fullback Toben Opurum and signed safety Bradley McDougald to their practice squad in a swap of former Kansas University standouts.

Both players joined the Chiefs in May as rookie free agents.

McDougald was active for last Sundayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s win over Dallas but did not play. He was released from the active roster and brought back to the practice squad on Wednesday.

The Chiefs made room by releasing Opurum, who had spent the first two weeks of the regular season on the practice squad. career-best 428 yards last week and has a 119.0 passer rating.

Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s accounted for six TDs (four passing, two rushing) and zero interceptions. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s very explosive, he brings the run aspect to his position, and him being a dynamic player, you always have to account for him and make sure you know whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going on,â&#x20AC;?

Chiefs safety Eric Berry said.

Tired legs: The Eagles are the first team in NFL history to start the season with three games in 11 days. The Chiefs are playing their third game in 12 days. Expect some weary players out there. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m happy that weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re doing this at the beginning of the season,â&#x20AC;? Eagles linebacker Connor Barwin said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If we were trying to get three games (in 11 days) in Weeks 12, 13 and 14, I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know if you could do it.â&#x20AC;?

Broncos shelve LT Clady

Ex-champ Norton dies at 70

ENGLEWOOD, COLO. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Peyton Manning will have a new left tackle protecting his blindside after the Denver Broncos placed Ryan Clady on season-ending injured reserve Wednesday.

Clady hurt his left foot Sunday when Giants defensive lineman Cullen Jenkins rolled up on him while the Broncos were trying to run out the clock in their 41-23 win.

LAS VEGAS â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Former heavyweight champion Ken Norton, who beat Muhammad Ali and then lost a controversial decision to him in Yankee Stadium, has died.

His son says he passed away Wednesday at a local care facility. He was 70.

Norton had been in poor health for the last several years after suffering a series of strokes, a friend of his said.

Norton broke Aliâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s jaw in their first fight, beating him by split decision in Norton 1973 in a non-title fight in San Diego. They fought six months later, and Ali narrowly won a split decision.

They met for a third time on Sept. 28, 1976, at Yankee Stadium, and Ali narrowly won to keep his heavyweight title.

Norton would come back the next year to win a heavyweight title eliminator and was declared champion by the World Boxing Council. But on June 9, 1978, he lost a bruising 15-round fight to Larry Holmes in what many regard as one of boxingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s epic heavyweight bouts and would never be champion again.

BEREA, OHIO â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The Cleveland Browns traded running back Trent Richardson to the Indianapolis Colts on Wednesday, a stunning move just two games into this season and only one year after drafting him in the first round.

Richardson was dealt for a first-round selection in next yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s draft, when the Browns will have two opening-round picks.

Cleveland is rebuilding, and the team hopes to use that pick to help turn around a floundering franchise mired in losing for more than a decade.

Such a turnaround was what the Browns had in mind when they took Richardson with the No. 3 overall pick in the 2012 draft.

But Richardson apparently didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t fit into the plans of Clevelandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s front office or new coach Rob Chudzinskiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s offensive system.

Richardson, who rushed for 950 yards as a rookie despite playing most of last season with broken ribs, had gained just 105 yards on 31 carries this season.

The shocking trade came on the same day Chudzinski announced that third-string quarterback Brian Hoyer will start Sunday against Minnesota. Hoyer received the nod over backup Jason Campbell to fill in for starter Brandon Weeden, who is sidelined with a sprained right thumb.

In addition, the Browns are bringing in free agent running back Willis McGahee for a physical and will sign him if he passes.

MINNESOTA VIKINGS DEFENSIVE END CHRISTIAN BALLARD, LEFT, SACKS St. Louis Rams quarterback Sam Bradford in this file photo from Dec. 16, 2012. round by the Vikings in 2011.

Ballard signed a fouryear, $2.488 million contract that included a $407,552 signing bonus. He was set to earn $555,000 in 2013 and $645,000 in 2014, contingent upon making the roster. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Making that much money, that was fun,â&#x20AC;?

Christian Ballard told USA Today. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But money is still a material thing. You can always make money. You canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t make that time that you lose with your friends and your loved ones. Time is something that you can never get back.â&#x20AC;?

Ballard also told the national newspaper that he thought playing in the NFL changed him in a negative way. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It made me selfish,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It made me complacent. I just thought that I was better than everyone.â&#x20AC;?

Free State basketball coach Chuck Law said he had not spoken with Ballard since he came to one of the Firebirdsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; practices when they were preparing for the state tournament last season.

Hand him the ball So far this season, junior running back Tony Pierson has carried the ball just six times for 50 yards. With KUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s offense struggling and Pierson transitioning to more of a wide receiver role, the team has not forgotten about Piersonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s abilities as a ball carrier. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think the plan is to give as many touches as he can get and some of that is gonna come out of the backfield,â&#x20AC;? Mitchell said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We ran the one sweep with him (vs. Rice) and that didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t work, but we do plan on getting him more carries.â&#x20AC;?

Would KU like to keep the 5-foot-10, 175-pound Pierson out of the trenches and, therefore, out of harmâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s way? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Yeah, you would,â&#x20AC;?

Mitchell said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The best way to utilize his talents is to get him on the edge, but we do have some things designed with him running inside.â&#x20AC;?

Home-and-home vs. UH KU announced on Wednesday a future homeand-home non-conference football series with Houston. The Jayhawks will play at Houston in 2019 and Houston will come to Lawrence in 2020. KU coach Charlie Weis said the series gives KU another chance to get into key territory. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The state of Texas is an extremely important area for our program in terms of recruiting,â&#x20AC;? Weis said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In addition, we have a large alumni base in the Houston area, so being able to play Houston is ideal for both the team and our fans.â&#x20AC;?

Jayson Tatum, a 6-foot7 sophomore forward from St. Louis Chaminade High who has already received scholarship offers from Kansas University and Missouri, has been ranked No. 4 in the Class of 2016 by Rivals.com.

The initial rankings for high school sophs were released Wednesday by Rivals.comâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Eric Bossi.

Of Tatum, who was headline performer at the recent KC Prep Invitational in Shawnee, Bossi writes: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Tatum is a highly skilled wing player capable of playing multiple positions. At times he will remind you of a young Shaun Livingston while others it is like watching Kyle Anderson at a young age. More and more he is developing into the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;point forwardâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; role, and his playmaking and desire to make big shots during clutch situations is off the charts.â&#x20AC;?

Josh Jackson (6-6, Detroit Consortium), Harry Giles (6-9, High Point, N.C. Wesleyan) and Thon Maker (7-foot, Martinsville, Va., Carlisle) are ranked Nos. 1 to 3.

O Blackmon sets UM visit: James Blackmon Jr., a 6-3

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Just like everyone else who coached him at Free State, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re always there for him if he ever needs to talk to us,â&#x20AC;? Law said.

When they last spoke, Law said, Ballard seemed, â&#x20AC;&#x153;very happy, very positive about his prospects with the Vikings. He seemed very upbeat and he looked great, so it was surprising to me from what I saw and heard.â&#x20AC;?

But Law said he looked at it through a different prism when he had a conversation with a close friend who works as an agent to NFL players. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He told me it surprises him that more people donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t do it because of the brutality of the sport and the beating you take, especially linemen,â&#x20AC;? Law said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He said the only reason more guys donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t is the allure of the money is so strong.â&#x20AC;?

When Ballard left camp, Vikings coach Leslie Frazier said he had done â&#x20AC;&#x153;a very good job for us last season,â&#x20AC;? at defensive tackle and was counting on him to do the same again J-W Staff Reports this season.

shooting guard from Marion (Ind.) High, who visited with KUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Bill Self on Tuesday and received a Jayhawk scholarship offer, will make an official visit to the University of Michigan the weekend of Sept.

He originally committed to Indiana before his freshman year of high school, but reopened his recruitment in August. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s had in-homes with Self, Kentuckyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s John Calipari, North Carolinaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Roy Williams, Indianaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Tom Crean and Michiganâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s John Beilein.

Blackmon has taken unofficial visits to Michigan, Michigan State, Kentucky, Louisville and Indiana since the decommitment, UM Hoops reports. He said he wants to visit Michigan, KU, Kentucky and Indiana.

O Self in Texas: KU coach Self on Wednesday again raced from 6 to 7 a.m. Boot Camp to an in-home visit, this one in Texas with Myles Turner, 6-11, 225 senior from Trinity High in Euless.

Self also has returnees including Perry Ellis, Naadir Tharpe, Jamari Traylor and Andrew White III.

Ballard He volunteered that the arrest of his son and daughter-in-law â&#x20AC;&#x153;got blown way out of proportion.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;They were having a verbal argument,â&#x20AC;? Casey Ballard said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Neither one touched the other. And since theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re in an apartment complex, a nextdoor neighbor called the police. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re still trying to figure out why the police felt the need to bring them in. And they never had the ability to post bond, which is why they stayed there 29 hours.â&#x20AC;?

The district attorney did not press charges against either Christian Ballard or his wife, whose apartment is near 31st and Iowa.

Casey Ballard said his son has not closed the door to a possible return to the NFL. Regardless of that, he said, his son is trying to sell the home he owns in the Twin Cities so that he can purchase one in Lawrence. The Vikings will retain Ballardâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rights for two years. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If he decides to go back next year Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m pretty sure heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll rent a place up there and make this his permanent home,â&#x20AC;? Casey Ballard said.

Ballard, 24, played defensive end and tight end for the Firebirds, led the basketball team to a thirdplace finish in the state tournament as a senior in 2007, and ran one leg of the Firebirdsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; standout 4X100 sprint relay team.

Rays edge Rangers in 12 The Associated Press

American League Rays 4, Rangers 3, 12 innings ST. PETERSBURG, FLA. — Desmond Jennings had an RBI single in the 12th inning, and Tampa took over the top spot in the AL wild-card race by beating Texas on Wednesday night.

Texas has a half-game lead over Cleveland, which lost at Kansas City, for the second wild card.

Jose Lobaton opened the 12th with a single off Joseph Ortiz (2-2) and pinch-runner Sam Fuld went to second on Yunel Escobar’s bunt. Fuld then scored on Jennings’ hit to right center.

Texas took a 3-2 lead in the 11th on Adrian Beltre’s two-out RBI single.

Cardinals 4, Rockies 3 DENVER — Adam Wainwright pitched effectively into the eighth after a shaky start and helped himself at the plate with three hits as St. Louis beat Colorado.

Wainwright (17-9) gave up two runs in the first and then found his groove to earn his 17th win, second-most in the NL this season.

He went 3 for 3 with a double and two RBIs to help the Cardinals stretch their lead to two games over Pittsburgh after the Pirates lost 3-2 loss to San Diego. St. Louis also reduced its magic number for clinching a playoff spot to three with 10 games to play.

Rookie Danny Salazar (1-3), who had allowed just one run in 13 2/3 innings in his first three September starts, took the loss, giving up four runs and six hits in six innings.

The Royals jumped out to a 3-0 lead in the first with Perez’s two-out double, scoring Eric Hosmer and Billy Butler. Perez went to third on the throw home and scored on a Salazar wild pitch.

The Indians scored a pair of runs in the third.

Yan Gomes came home after center fielder Dyson had trouble picking up Michael Brantley’s double.

Brantley wound up scoring on Bourn’s sacrifice fly.

The Royals used a double steal in the fifth for their fourth run. Escobar avoided the tag of catcher Gomes to steal home, while Alex Gordon, who was initially caught in a rundown, stole second.

Escobar became the first Royal to steal home since Jeff Francoeur on Aug. 11, 2012, at Baltimore.

“I was kind of looking to take him back to third base and peaked (at the other runner) and when I did that he kind of dropped and went under my tag,” Gomes said.

Notes: The Royals recalled LHP Chris Dwyer, who allowed one single

we bond with his family as a couple if she’s always there? I’m having a hard time with this. I think he needs to tell her to knock it off. They are divorced. She has her own boyfriend, by the way, although she doesn’t do much with him. — B.H. Dear B.H.: We caution you not to make demands on your boyfriend, because it puts you between him and his children, which is not a good place to be. Instead, discuss the situation calmly. If he is determined to allow his ex to attend family

‘Rhoda’ tells her story on Vieira special Everybody loved Rhoda Morgenstern. Who doesn’t want to root for “The Mary Tyler Moore Show” actress Valerie Harper to make a miraculous recovery from her recently diagnosed cancer? But at what point does the display of spunky fortitude become just another exercise in showbiz publicity? Having lived and performed in the spotlight, is it appropriate that someone face a fatal prognosis in public as well?

Viewers genuinely interested in Harper’s march toward possible remission should not miss “Valerie’s Story: A Meredith Vieira Special” (9 p.m., NBC). But watching her compete on the physically demanding “Dancing With the Stars” may be a bridge too far for some.

The sands of the hourglass run out for “The Million Second Quiz” (7 p.m., NBC), concluding tonight. The game show hosted

by Ryan Seacrest saw its ratings decline on a fairly steady basis as its seconds ticked away. Last Thursday, “Second” was second to the bottom of the network barrel, beating only a repeat of the “The Vampire Diaries.”

Experts will no doubt conduct a post-run autopsy on the series to determine whether its multinight onslaught was too much for viewers, whether Ryan Seacrest has passed his pop-culture expiration date or whether the show’s tie-in with social media didn’t click with game-show addicts.

Combining tongue-in-cheek puns for adults and plenty of action for the kids, the CGI adventure “Dragons: Defenders of Berk” (6:30 p.m., Cartoon Network) returns for its second season.

After a layoff, a middle-class couple (George Segal and Jane Fonda) turns to robbery in the 1977 satire “Fun with Dick and Jane” (7 p.m., Oxygen). Still going strong, Segal will appear in the ABC comedy “The Goldbergs,” debuting on Tuesday.

Fonda has been a regular on “The Newsroom,” which just ended its second season on HBO.

Tonight’s other highlights

Auditions continue on “The X-Factor” (7 p.m. Fox).

“Wipeout” (7 p.m., ABC) ends its summer season.

Jake Gyllenhaal appears on “Inside the Actors Studio” (7 p.m., Bravo), hosted by James Lipton.

The Philadelphia Eagles host the Kansas City Chiefs in NFL football (7:25 p.m., NFL Network).

functions (and his family doesn’t throw her out), let it be. At some point, those children will be out of the house and he will worry less about how this affects them. Your decision is how long you are willing to graciously tolerate this situation.

Dear Annie: Please explain the difference between a woman who is the victim of verbal abuse and one whose behavior is so annoying that her husband can’t help criticizing her.

My husband has been yelling at me and putting me down for 50 years, but when he’s not angry, he can be quite loving. He says the proof that his bad moods are my fault is that he isn’t angry when I’m not around. I tell him that my friends and family never pick on me, and he says that’s because they’re as nutty as I am.

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS

For Thursday, Sept. 19 This year you often feel pulled in different directions. If you are single, you will open up to different types of people. If you are attached, the two of you will be more in sync, especially after your sweetie gets the swing of your moods!

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) Don’t push so hard to get your way. Others might feel overworked, and it won’t take much to trigger them. Tonight: You have a lot of information to process.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) Today’s Full Moon points to new possibilities, as long as you tap into your creativity. Tonight: Meet a friend or two at your favorite haunt.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) Tension could be quite high in the morning; you might want to seek out a friend to commiserate with by lunchtime. Tonight: Swap tales of the day with friends.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) Others might challenge what you thought was a wellthought-out project. Tonight: Possibly at work till the wee hours.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) New information comes in and forces you to question your prior decisions. Let a trusted friend play devil’s advocate, and you might gain strong answers as a result. Tonight: Make an important call.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Pressure will build throughout the day, and then suddenly it will be gone. You might be left wondering what happened.

husband treats me if I just tried harder, but as soon as I open my mouth, he’s on my case. If I remain silent, he accuses me of pouting. I feel as if I can’t win, no matter what I do. I want to change, but don’t know how. — Tired of Being the Whipping Girl Dear Tired: The signs of verbal abuse include: a spouse who calls you names; who is critical, sarcastic or mocking in an effort to humiliate or embarrass you; who yells or swears at you; who uses threats to intimidate you; who blames you for his behavior; who dismisses your feelings.

From your letter, we easily see three or four of those signs. We don’t know what you want to do about this after 50 years, but we strongly recommend counseling — for you, if not for both of you together. You’ve put up with this abuse much too long. jacquelinebigar.com

Tonight: Run some errands on the way home.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Events will happen quickly, and therefore, others’ moods also will change quickly. You might feel much better than you have in a while. Tonight: Say “yes” to an invitation.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Get up early, as you might have an important matter to handle. The earlier you can get started, the better; it will make a difference in the outcome. Tonight: Make it an early night, if possible.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You could come up with a doozy of an idea that might involve changing directions or adding more spice to a project or to your life. Tonight: Allow yourself to be naughty and nice.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You might find that your words tend to stir up a lot of strong feelings in others. You will wonder why, but realize that it simply could be the timing. Tonight: Stay close to home.

Aquarius (Jan.29-Feb. 18) Use caution in the morning when dealing with your finances.

Later in the day, your communication will excel. Tonight: All smiles, no matter where you are.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) There will be an unusual intensity to the morning. You might not be able to see a situation as clearly as you might like; besides, more information is forthcoming.

Tonight: Add more fun into the mix.

Dear Annie: I’m dating a divorced man with five children, two of whom still live with their parents in a shared-custody arrangement. The divorce was very bitter, and she put him into bankruptcy.

She is a spendaholic and not a pleasant person to be around, always making herself the wronged party.

We put up with her at all functions that include the kids — school sports, birthdays and things like that. But now she insists on inviting herself to functions with my boyfriend’s extended family.

When is it appropriate to tell her, “Stop inviting yourself. You are divorced from this family”?

After all, my boyfriend is never invited to her family functions. Neither of us wants her at these events, but my boyfriend is afraid that if he says anything to her, it will hurt the kids.

Urban living in Lawrence

Jessica Pauly

Yokohama: a nice catch

B

eing located in the heart of the Midwest means a couple of things for us Lawrencians: 1) It’s pretty easy to find a darn good beef burger in this town, and 2) Fresh seafood is hard to come by (and no, that catfish you caught at Clinton Lake doesn’t count as fresh seafood).

That being said, I’m impressed with the sushi I’ve had at Yokohama Sushi. On the days when a hamburger just won’t satisfy (I admit, those days are rare — ha!), I often turn to Yokohama.

While we usually call in our order for pick-up, on this particular night we decided to dine out. After all, Yokohama is a large restaurant complete with alcoholic bar, sushi bar, tatami rooms (with traditional floor-seating) and, of course, basic tables and booths. We took a table near the entrance and began to peruse the menu, and what a menu it is! Cold and hot appetizers, salads, nigiri, regular rolls, noodles, Korean specialty plates and even a kids menu, to name a few of the options. It’s apparent that Yokohama covers Asian fusion, Japanese, Korean and sushi bar.

Even with so many enticing options, I decided to go with my regular order. Why mess with a good thing, right?

A hefty appetizer of edamame followed by a spicy tuna roll for me. The mister, however, decided to go all out: the small sushi sashimi boat for him, please and thank you! (yeah, a BOAT, I was a slightly envious...) And because it was Friday, we ordered a couple of beers while we waited for our orders to arrive.

It wasn’t long at all before our food arrived, and the presentation was delightful. The edamame is always just as tasty as ever, and my spicy tuna rolls appear extra large and taste perfectly spicy. But then there is the “small” sushi sashimi boat that my husband ordered, and it is one colorful mess of excellence.

Jessica Pauly/Special to the Journal-World

SET SAIL. The sushi sashimi boat at Yokohama has a little bit of everything. Find Yokohama Sushi at 811 New Hampshire St., 785-856-8862, yokohamasushioflawrence.com.

The sashimi (raw fish) and nigiri (raw fish with rice) appear in shades of pink and orange, flanked by California rolls. I tell you what, this ship was ready to set sail. Lucky me, I got to help make sure no sushi roll was left behind.

Yokohama does list desert on their menu, but there was no need to even flirt with the options; we were full. After the beers, my edamame and spicy tuna roll, and the sushi sashimi boat, our total came to $53.92 ($63 with tip).

Considering the burger-to-sushi-restaurant ratio in town (it’s got to be something like three to one), that isn’t too bad for a special date night out.

club lets kids toy around

O

ne of our first â&#x20AC;&#x153;for funâ&#x20AC;? trips out of the house after the Kid was born was to the Toy Store, 936 Massachusetts St. I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t remember why, but I surmise that, perhaps in my postpartum what-do-I-dowith-this-creature haze, I was thinking, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Kids like toys, right?â&#x20AC;?

While that first trip is fuzzy, I know exactly why we kept going back.

Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a sign in the Toy Storeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s restroom declaring it the best bathroom in downtown Lawrence. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not an idle boast.

For a new mother trying to remember all the blankets and bottles and binkies necessary for even short trips out of the house, their clean changing table stocked with spare diapers and wipes was a lifesaver more than once.

(Close runner-up: The Blue Dandelion, 841 Massachusetts St., which also has a free, stocked changing table. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a harder store to negotiate with a stroller â&#x20AC;&#x201D; so many sets of stairs â&#x20AC;&#x201D; but they get points for the private, comfy chair for breast-feeding moms.)

As the Kid grew, our trips to the Toy Store graduated from â&#x20AC;&#x153;just walking through for the wonderful bathroomâ&#x20AC;? to â&#x20AC;&#x153;stopping to rest in the rocking chair and read booksâ&#x20AC;? and eventually to â&#x20AC;&#x153;playing for

TRAINING SESSION. The Kid plays at the train table at the Toy Store, 936 Massachusetts St., during one of the stores regular Cub Clubs.

a half an hour with the train table while Mom enjoys her coffee and Facebook on Saturday morning.â&#x20AC;?

And the train table is straight where my little Thomas the Tank Engine-obsessed Kid wanted to head when we stopped in for the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Cub Clubâ&#x20AC;? a few weeks ago.

The Cub Club is a free craft session that the Toy Store is holding each Wednesday afternoon this fall. It starts at 4 p.m., and includes projects like decorating a cookie face, building a marshmallow catapult, or, on the particular day we went, making a glow-in-the dark pet rock.

Promptly on time, Grace Chin, the Toy Store employee in charge of the activity that day, set up two paper-covered, kid-sized tables with a selection of neon-painted rocks. As four or five young children gathered around, Grace demonstrated how to turn the rocks into personalities: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Here are some eyes and feathers you can glue on. And hereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s paint to draw faces.â&#x20AC;?

While the little ones worked, I chatted with Grace. The Toy Store schedules occasional parties and contests â&#x20AC;&#x201D; they recently held an Alice In Wonderland Tea Party, for example â&#x20AC;&#x201D; but the Cub Club is the only event thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s weekly.

For the most part, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a drop-in event, although sign-up was required for the more complicated â&#x20AC;&#x153;Build Your Own Wooden Shipâ&#x20AC;? session at the end of August. Parents are required to stay and encouraged to help younger children. The projects are generally geared toward ages 3-7.

Grace said the specific schedule of crafts will only be released about a month at a time, but the next Cub Club, on Sept. 25, is called â&#x20AC;&#x153;Make Your Own Cookie Face.â&#x20AC;?

Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve definitely got that one marked on my calendar!

We were interrupted when it looked like the kids present were too young to ma-

nipulate the squeeze bottles of black paint.

Grace was admirably quick on the fly. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Let me go grab some Sharpies for you,â&#x20AC;? she told a dad trying to assist his daughter.

Once I pulled the Kid away from the trains, he was able to successfully glue one goggle-y eye and a feather to his bright green rock. Then he started scribbling wildly where the mouth should be. I offered to help, but clearly I just didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t understand his inspiration. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m makinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; a beard like daddyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s,â&#x20AC;? he informed me curtly.

Grace politely tried not to laugh, but her eyes sparkled as she smiled at me over the Kidâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s head.

We ended up leaving with both a glowin-the-dark, bearded pet rock and a new train. We also had to visit the bathroom, of course, both for nostalgiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sake and because â&#x20AC;&#x201D; in the throes of potty training â&#x20AC;&#x201D; we visit all the bathrooms these days.

Signage is everywhere, so make your own

BY JENNIFER FORKER ASSOCIATED PRESS

Walk into a crafts or home furnishings store today and notice all the signs: rows upon rows of pre-fabricated signs that speak of love, blessings, family and home.

There’s the ubiquitous “Live, Laugh, Love” and “Kiss the cook.” Other signs offer guidance for staying strong, building courage or getting happy.

Those signs can’t be that difficult to make — and personalize — ourselves, right?

It depends.

If you want to make signage with a folksy, imperfect bent, then sure, that’s easy to do. If you’re after something more sophisticated — if you’d like to create signs for the home that mirror those sold in stores — there’s a little more work involved.

LeAnne Stowe, of Overland Park, says that if perfection is not the goal, signs are “super easy to make.” She started handcrafting some a year ago, after viewing a tutorial on the website Pinterest. They fit well with Stowe’s interest in refurbishing “rescued relics,” aka flea-market finds, which she sells on her Facebook page, Annie’s Barn.

She paints her signs mostly on inexpensive pine boards or recycled barn wood.

“People love the rustic feel of barn wood,” Stowe says.

In the beginning, she painted on stretched cotton canvas — cheap and available at any crafts store — using vinyl letters and acrylic paint (spray paint works, outside or in a well-ventilated room). Place the vinyl letters on the canvas, spray or brush paint over the entire surface (then maybe again for a second coat after the first one dries), lift off the lettering and voila!

The canvas itself can be painted or wrapped (and stapled in back) with a vibrant fabric beforehand to give the message added pizazz.

This is the way homemade signs ought to be made, asserts Bob Richter, an interior designer and cast member of PBS’ treasurehunting series “Market Warriors.”

“The more rustic the better. That’s what gives it its charm,” says Richter. “Anytime

you’re asking for perfection in a home project you’re asking for trouble.”

Richter sees families naming their country homes, their cabins and their boats — all of which can benefit from prominently hung signage. Many parents hang their newborns’ names — often embroidered — over the crib.

And Richter sees tourists in New York City carting around cheap signs they bought with their child’s name — lettered on the streets of Chinatown or Times Square.

“There’s nothing significant about New York City about it. It’s more about people’s AP Photo/Annie’s Barn, LeAnne Stowe attachment to having something personalSIGN ME UP. This undated handout photo provided by Annie’s Barn shows signs ized,” he says.

Stowe sells signs that list lake cabin or made by LeAnne Stowe, of Overland Park, to sell through her home-based business, porch rules (“Feel the breeze,” ‘’Read a Annie’s Barn. book”).

For $65, she’ll make an 11-by-24-inch sign with a family’s name emblazoned across the top and room for some personal lines below. These and others are available at her Etsy.com store, Annie’s Barn.

Stowe distresses the cheap pine boards with a hammer and other tools, or treats the barn wood with a bleach-and-water ~ąą ųŗ ÁØĜőÁ Ĝő ~ØťÁő ƋĜųő ĔÁƉť ĵ~őťƋ ťĜ őÁčĜƅÁ ťðÁ ťĜųäðÁŗť ŗĵĜťŗ mixture to kill tiny critters.

ƇƇƇļŗť~ĔąÁƋôŗťÁÁčÁőļ¤Ĝč After the letters are removed and the paint dries, Stowe distresses the piece with sand paper. She drills holes at the top for bailing wire for hanging.

Finally, she seals the sign with a clear wax — she uses Annie Sloan Soft Wax — ZÁŗťőõ¤ťõĜĔŗ ĵĵąƋ £ ƉĵõőÁŗ ĪƖšũĪšĪũ to make it weather-resistant for hanging n~ąõ´ õĔ Ĝųäą~ŗ \ð~ƇĔÁÁ ĜųĔťƋ± 9\ ĜĔąƋļ outdoors.

“It looks like it’s worth a million bucks once you put the wax on,” Stowe says.

“Words are powerful, and we all know ZÁŗťőõ¤ťõĜĔŗ ĵĵąƋ £ ƉĵõőÁŗ ĪƖšũĪšĪũ that,” says Stowe. “(These signs) tell a pern~ąõ´ õĔ Ĝųäą~ŗ \ð~ƇĔÁÁ ĜųĔťƋ± 9\ ĜĔąƋļ sonal story. That’s why I think it’s big.”

scents Area businesses create, sell natural homemade soaps

ainty hotel soaps shaped like seashells are one thing. But when it comes to lathering up, a touch of homespun can be just as luxurious.

Local milk, organic herbs, fair-trade shea butter and pure essential oils highlight ingredient lists for area residents who create and sell natural, handmade soaps.

“We work really hard to maintain that small, handcrafted kind of rustic feel,” said Gina Renee, who started Nurture Botanicals. “It’s not something you can go to Bath and Body Works and buy.”

Nurture Botanicals is one of a handful of area companies producing unique natural soaps. Here’s more about them and three others.

So Renee, who had dabbled in homemade beauty products before, came up with her own line of natural diaper rash salves and baby powders.

That effort eventually led to Nurture Botanicals, which Renee expanded after moving to Lawrence. The company makes bar soaps, lip butters, body scrubs, soaking salts and a popular â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sting Stop Elixerâ&#x20AC;? for itchy bug bites.

The products contain all organic herbs and essential oils and fair-trade shea butter sourced from a womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s collective in Togo, Renee said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We work very hard to maintain ethical business practices, not just within our own business but also the suppliers that we purchase our raw materials from,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We do a lot of homework.â&#x20AC;?

Renee recently moved back to California, but her apprentice Courtney Gray has taken over operations and is now making the products in her home studio. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I felt that it was best for Nurture Botanicals to stay in Lawrence, and Courtneyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s proven to do a wonderful job,â&#x20AC;? Renee said.

Walker makes about 400 bars at a time, a process that takes several weeks from blending and pouring to cutting and curing her handmade Healing Moon soaps.

Walker worked two years as an apprentice for Healing Moonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s previous owner before taking over the business three years ago. The soaps feature coconut, palm kernel and olive oils with essential oils, dried herbs and natural colorants â&#x20AC;&#x201D; mild, with no artificial chemicals. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Personally, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve found itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the best soap Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve ever

To put the excess to good use, Courtney Skeeba said, she researched making goatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s milk soap and body creams, experimented with her own recipes and started selling them.

Goatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s milk is known for being easier to digest for people with milk sensitivities because itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s more similar in chemistry to human milk, Skeeba said. And that translates well to soaps. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t rob the skin of nutrients,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It actually bonds with your skin and helps to moisturize it rather than dry it out.â&#x20AC;?

A double dose of style for women

Emily and Elizabeth Kennedy

Life is short; buy the Shoes

S

hoes are a huge part of my wardrobe, considering I have an entire bookshelf filled with them.

If I’m going to invest in anything, it would most likely be shoes because they last longer and you will typically be able to wear them season after season.

The changing of the seasons prompts me to evaluate my shoe collection and see what I can keep, what I need to get rid of, and my favorite part: what styles to buy.

There are six styles I like to stick to when it comes to fall shoes: a flat, an oxford, something with height (whether that be stiletto, wedge or platform), a riding boot, an ankle boot and a work boot.

BOOTS

As mentioned before, a good solid fall shoe wardrobe should be stocked with a riding boot, an ankle boot and a pair of work boots.

Let me break each of these down for you. A riding boot is usually a flat style that goes either up to the knee or over the knee. Ankle boots hit just below, just above or right at the ankle, and they are either flat or have a chunky heel. Last but not least, a work boot is a modern, more sophisticated version of an actual rugged work boot. They are a lace-up style and sometimes have added detail like zippers or foldover features.

Elizabeth and I spotted a work boot FLATS AND OXFORDS that was right on trend for fall. It was in the perfect yellowish shade for fall with a zipper detail and a super comfortable fit.

Flats are always in my outfit rotations.

ooler days will surely get here soon, and their arrival is a great time to think about planting trees and shrubs. With the exception of a few species, fall-planted trees and shrubs will have a jump-start as their root growth continues throughout much of the winter.

Just like any other time of year, look for healthy, high-quality plants when making selections at your favorite local garden center. Knowledgeable nurserymen can provide recommendations, or Kansas State University offers two guides: “Recommended Trees for

was to plant at a depth that kept the soil level the same as it was in the container in which the tree or shrub was growing.

With shrubs, this is generally acceptable, but with trees we now understand this may be too deep. Picture a mature tree in your mind, and the way the base widens out at ground level. Compare this image to one of a utility pole, which is straight up and down.

Newly planted trees should also widen at the base. This may require removal of some soil from the mass of roots and soil that come on the tree. Try to set the tree at a

Northeast Kansas” and “Shade and Ornamental Trees.” These guides are available through K-State Research and ExtensionDouglas County or through the K-State Research and Extension website, www.ksre. ksu.edu.

The most common tree I get asked about is one that is medium-sized, has great fall color, few insect and disease problems, leaves that blow away, and lacks messy fruit or seeds. I suppose that tree might exist somewhere, but in northeast Kansas I recommend prioritizing which of those attributes are most important. The K-State guides can help you determine which species is best for your individual situation.

Gardeners should also remember to look up and think about mature size when selecting trees and shrubs. Trees planted too close to power lines can be a major hindrance later in their life.

Large shrubs can also be a problem with power lines. For smaller shrubs, make sure to plant them far enough away from each other and from buildings to allow them to reach their full size potential.

depth so that uppermost horizontal root is at ground level or slightly above.

For container-grown trees and shrubs, loosen the lower portions of the mass of roots by cutting into them with pruners or a shovel. The loosening will stimulate root growth and help the plants recognize that they have more room to grow than in their previous containment.

Water immediately after planting to help settle soil around the roots and to provide moisture. Deep and infrequent watering is best, and continue to water over the winter while the ground remains unfrozen.

Apply a 2- to 3-inch layer of mulch to trees and shrubs to reduce temperature and moisture fluctuations. Keep mulch pulled away from the trunk or base of the plant to form a mulch doughnut rather than a mulch volcano.

Fix-It Chick Maintain your home

Replace a gas grill burner

R

eplacing the burner on a gas grill is an easy and cost-effective fix for older grills that are demonstrating inconsistent or nonexistent flame patterns.

Step 1: Turn off the propane and disconnect the regulator hose from the propane tank. Detach the tank from its mounting brackets and remove the tank from the grill.

Step 2: Remove the cooking grates and the heat-diffusing plates above the gas burner. Newer grills are equipped with heat diffusers instead of lava rocks or briquettes. If the grill has rocks or briquettes, remove those and then remove the grate they rest on.

Step 3: Once the grill burner is exposed, check to see how it is installed. Adjustable rod burners will typically be held in place with a screw, while H-shaped and single burners usually rest atop mounting brackets or feet. Many burners connect to the gas control valves with flexible venturi tubes, while rod-type burners typically slip directly onto the gas orifices.

Step 4: Disconnect the venturi tube or rod type burner from the gas control valve by removing the wire, clip or hitch pin and gently pulling the end of the tube back off the valve orifice.

Step 5: Remove the burner and take it, along with the manufacturer name and

model number of the grill, to your local hardware store. Purchase a universal burner that looks similar or order an exact manufacturerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s replacement burner. The universal burners are more cost-effective, but may not work as well on more-expensive gas grills.

Step 6: With the burner removed, take advantage of the opportunity to clean the inside of the grill. Sweep or vacuum out any loose debris and use a wire brush to remove excess rust and grease. Use a highpressure hose nozzle and wire brush to clean the cooking grates, diffusing plates, briquettes, rocks and/or rock grates.

Step 7: Assemble the new burner, following the manufacturerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s instructions.

Be careful with the flexible venturi tubes.

They are easy to damage and will render the new burner inoperable if they become torn or kinked.

Step 8: Install the new burner into position and slide the connecting end onto the gas valve orifice. Properly secure it into place as before.

Step 9: Reattach the propane tank and test the burner to make sure everything is functioning properly. Make any necessary adjustments before reinstalling the remaining grill parts. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Linda Cottin can be reached at checkout@ljworld.com.
