Thousands expected to attend Old-Fashioned Christmas Parade The 21st annual event is set for Saturday in downtown Lawrence. Some things you should know if you go:

11 a.m.

The start time for Saturday’s parade, but don’t plan to park downtown unless you get there well before sunrise. Spaces usually fill up well before 6 a.m. Barricades will go up along Massachusetts Street starting at 8 a.m. and won’t be removed until after the parade’s 12:30 p.m. completion.

21 65-70

The expected temperature on Saturday — 48 degrees colder than last year’s parade day.

10

20,000

Approximate number of spectators expected to attend this year’s parade.

Expected number of parade entries, ranging from Clydesdale-drawn wagons to miniature Sicilian donkeys and participants from as far as South Dakota and Texas. Back again this year will be the Wells Fargo stagecoach from Minneapolis and, as always, Santa Claus serving as the finale.

Word of mouth has helped grow the event both in terms of participants and spectators, the highlight being USA Today’s inclusion of the parade on its 10 great places to put a spin on the Christmas spirit in a November 2012 article.

What’s new:

A Civil War cannon and ammunition wagon will be part of the parade’s introduction. Also new: The Topeka Fire Department will roll out a 1904 steamer wagon once used by the department.

“I promise there will be some very nice surprises.� —Parade director Elaine VanDeventer

Kansas University has joined a pilot project that uses mobile technology to help teach math and science in K-12 classrooms.

The UKan Teach program, which trains KU students majoring in math, science and technology-related fields to become math and science teachers, has received more than 35 tablet computers equipped with mobile wireless access through a SCHOOLS grant from the Verizon Foundation, a philanthropic arm of the mobile giant Verizon Communications.

KU students taking a onecredit course through UKan Teach are currently testing ways to use the tablets in classrooms “not just for bells and whistles� but also to “aid in student learning,� said Carol Williamson, a master teacher with UKan Teach and former elementary and middle school science teacher.

Volunteers trained to provide more compassionate care to homeless

By Giles Bruce gbruce@ljworld.com

The volunteer was just trying to help homeless families in Lawrence. He didn’t know that, through no fault of his own,

he was doing more harm than good.

It was all because he reminded one of the homeless people of a relative who had abused her as a child. When the volunteer left, her anxiety went away.

are observing and teaching some lessons in middle schools have been using tablet applications in classrooms. Among them are apps with lessons on Earthâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s natural history, waves and sound, and angles.

The apps are visual, interactive and can incorporate video to help simulate complex physical phenomena, all of which can help engage younger students. The tablets themselves are also intuitive for many young students, who often come to class knowing how to use them, Williamson said.

The tablets also turn on and connect to the internet far more rapidly than desktops can, helping to minimize what Williamson and teachers across the country call â&#x20AC;&#x153;downtime,â&#x20AC;? periods where students are left waiting for the lesson to begin. When it comes to more wide-

spread deployment, Steve Case, director of UKan Teach, said tablet computers are cheaper for schools than buying every student a desktop computer.

KU is working on the project in collaboration with the University of Texas, which founded the original UTeach program that started the network UKan Teach belongs to, as well as University of Colorado at Boulder and University of Massachusetts at Lowell.

Verizon has helped fund the project with more than $1 million in cash and wireless service.

Michael Marder, director of the UTeach program at Texas, said this phase of the project would help develop a â&#x20AC;&#x153;repositoryâ&#x20AC;? of lessons that can be taught using the tablets. From there, the partnering universities will begin testing student outcomes more systematically to look for ways â&#x20AC;&#x153;we can amplify our efforts,â&#x20AC;? he said.

Dan and Saasha Hustonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s son Gibson started having around 80 seizures each day at the age of 3. His medication wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t helping, and the only way heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d have a chance at a good quality of life was a rare kind of brain surgery called a hemispherectomy.

This is a radical brain surgery, in which one side of a childâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s brain is removed and disconnected. The hope is that by removing this damaged side, the child can live a seizure-free life. Children living with this condition are already on high doses of medication that can lead to damaging developmental side effects.

With the surgery, it is possible that the child can be weaned off the medication and live without any seizures.

Gibson went through the surgery twice. The first surgery in Los Angeles stopped the seizures for a short period of time, but the second procedure in Baltimore extinguished the seizures completely. He hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t had a seizure since. â&#x20AC;&#x153;At that time, the Hemispherectomy Foundation didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t exist,â&#x20AC;? Dan said.

Started in 2008 by a Texas family whose 6-year-old daughter went through a similar experience, the Hemispherectomy Foundation provides families with a support system made up of fellow parents going through this traumatic ordeal with their children. The foundation also serves as a forum for parents to trade resources on the latest physical therapy treatments. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Not only does (Hemi Foundation) support the

Dan said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Their ultimate goal is to find a cure for these conditions that require this surgery and help cure epilepsy in general.â&#x20AC;?

After Gibson had fully recovered from the surgery, the Hustons wanted to give back to the friends and families in Lawrence who were their biggest support system with a giant celebration. It quickly morphed into a benefit concert and auction called Hemi Jam with all proceeds going to Hemi Foundation, and raising awareness about this serious issue, put together solely by Dan, Saasha and a close friend.

The third annual Hemi Jam fundraiser to bring in donations for children and families suffering from radical brain surgery, will be 7 p.m. Saturday at the Granada, 1020 Massachusetts St. Tickets are $10.

The nightâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s program includes a live and silent auction, as well as performances from local bands Revelation: A Tribute to Journey; funk group The Band That Saved the World; and Los Angelesbased singer-songwriter Lisa Donnelly, who is also

a Lawrence native. She recently released a single from new album â&#x20AC;&#x153;Home,â&#x20AC;? which appeared on the wedding special of the TV show â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Bachelorette.â&#x20AC;?

Donnelly also used to sing backup for The Band that Saved the World.

Local businesses have donated restaurant gift cards and spa packages for the silent auction. Live auction items include two round-trip tickets anywhere in the United States donated by Southwest Airlines, a two-night stay at a Florida beach resort, and four tickets to the KUNew Mexico menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s basketball game Dec. 14 at the Sprint Center, with limo transportation, among other things.

Unlike most concerts at the Granada, reserved tables and chairs will fill the venue.

The two past Hemi Jams brought in about 300 people. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had a great response from businesses, which is great support,â&#x20AC;? Dan said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When Gibson was going through his surgery, the Lawrence community was incredibly present and supportive as well.â&#x20AC;?

Lawrence hosted the last annual Hemi Foundation conference this summer, previously held in larger cities like Los Angeles, Baltimore and Indianapolis. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was a nice family-oriented conference where we were able to hang out and also learn the latest techniques in physical therapies, medication and all of the things that are hard to keep up with easily,â&#x20AC;? Dan said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You learn so much from other families.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Features reporter Nadia Imafidon can be reached at nimafidon@ljworld.com and 832-6342.

JEAN STANTON HETZEL Graveside services for Jean Stanton Hetzel, 87, Lawrence, will be at 11 am Friday at Oak Hill Cemetery. Mrs. Hetzel died Tuesday, Dec. 3, 2013, at her home.

She was born Jan. 3, 1926, in Winchester, the daughter of W.D. â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Jackâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; and Veda D. Alexander Stanton. She graduated from Liberty Memorial High School and later attended the University of Kansas as a history major.

Jean and her husband owned and operated Hetzel Enterprises, and owned several commercial buildings in downtown Lawrence.

She was known for her business acumen, and enjoyed reading, bird watching (especially hawks), spending time with her family, and giving care to those in need.

She married Park Hetzel III on May 17, 1951.

He preceded her in death in 2004. She was also preceded in death by her parents, and her brother, Bill Stanton. Survivors include her daughter, D.

People with traumatic experiences, for whom â&#x20AC;&#x153;trust is at a premium,â&#x20AC;? often have trouble dealing with the complex web that is social service delivery in this country, said Rich Minder, collaborative projects coordinator for Douglas County Success by Six. He gave an example of a person who has to apply for food stamps at the same agency that oversees child protective services, which the person had traumatic experiences with as a child. â&#x20AC;&#x153;That just triggers for them experiences of having to deal with the government removing them from their parents or not protecting them,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Now the person doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t show

up for their appointment.

The case manager says, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;I tried to help the person.

They donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get their food stamps.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; Now the person is to blame for not being compliant. If you recognize that people are going into these systems with trust at a premium, then you modify how you go about giving services.â&#x20AC;?

Detherage believes many people can benefit from this type of training. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Even if youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not a service provider, this is important information for you to know,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Maybe your son or daughter is going to be in a relationship with someone who has trauma in their background.

Survivors of domestic violence and advocates speak out

By Caitlin Doornbos cvdoornbos@ljworld.com

In one of the most popular Kansas University dining facilities, a string of daunting messages hangs above the young students eating lunch. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Ma, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m sorry you had to die to escape your pain.

Watch over us tonight,â&#x20AC;? one read. â&#x20AC;&#x153;August 1999: my ex-boyfriend threatened to kill me,â&#x20AC;? read another.

The emotionally haunting words are scrawled onto Tshirts pinned to a clothesline strung in The Underground as part of a collaborative effort with the Willow Domestic Violence Center to raise awareness of domestic abuse.

The heartbreaking notes may seem out of place in a rambunctious college cafeteria, but KU junior Alexander Montgomery said the seeming contradiction made the projectâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s message stick. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not in a place where youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d expect it, which I think makes it more powerful,â&#x20AC;?

Montgomery said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;People need to be taken out of their comfort zone in order to be called to action.â&#x20AC;?

THE WILLOW DOMESTIC VIOLENCE CENTERâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S Clothesline Project hangs in The Underground cafeteria in Wescoe hall on the Kansas University campus and will be on display through the rest of the month. The project features T-shirts decorated to represent the stories of domestic violence advocates and survivors. The shirts are a means of expressing how domestic violence influences the lives of the people who experience it and an anonymous outlet that can be shared with the whole community.

UNITED WAY FUNDRAISING CAMPAIGN

Business dean advocates for community involvement

By Chad Lawhorn clawhorn@ljworld.com

Kansas University business school dean Neeli Bendapudi has a saying she often shares with business leaders: In God we trust. In all else, bring data.

The latest data for the annual fundraising campaign for the United Way of Douglas County shows the agency still

has a long way to go to meet its $1.8 million goal by the end of the year.

Bendapudi on Bendapudi Wednesday provided a pep talk to about 30 small-business executives on the importance of support-

ing the United Way campaign. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Always become part of the community,â&#x20AC;?

Bendapudi said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You get so much more when you give.â&#x20AC;?

Colleen Gregoire, vice president and campaign director for the United Way, said pledge totals currently were on pace to finish below the campaignâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s $1.8 million goal.

She said current totals

But United Way officials are making one last push for donations as businesses and individuals do their end-of-year planning.

The cost of federal insurance is going up for 168 property owners in Douglas County as the federal government phases out subsidized insurance in areas designated as â&#x20AC;&#x153;special flood hazard areas.â&#x20AC;?

Those areas are generally in the flood plains along the Kansas and Wakarusa rivers, as well as a few other portions of the county.

Andy Megrail of the FedCOUNTY eral Emergency COMMISSION Management Agencyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s regional office in Kansas City, Mo., briefed Douglas County commissioners about the changes on Wednesday. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Flood risk is continuing to cost more and more as years go by,â&#x20AC;? Megrail said. He cited a string of major natural disasters in recent years â&#x20AC;&#x201D; from Hurricane Sandy last year to Hurricane Katrina that devastated much of the Gulf Coast in 2005 â&#x20AC;&#x201D; that have depleted reserves under the

National Flood Insurance Program. â&#x20AC;&#x153;NFP no longer has the money to cover all the disasters weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re seeing,â&#x20AC;? he said.

Under the BiggertWaters Flood Insurance Reform Act of 2012, sometimes referred to as BW-12, Congress sought to shore up the fund by eliminating many of the subsidies that some property owners had enjoyed for many years.

KU junior Joey Hentzler said itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fitting if students lose their appetites when reading the gripping words in the dining hall. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a little grotesque, but so is domestic violence,â&#x20AC;? Hentzler said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is every day for some people, so I think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s good for it to be thrown in studentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; faces this way.â&#x20AC;?

The activity is part of the nationwide â&#x20AC;&#x153;Clothesline Project,â&#x20AC;? which invites domestic violence survivors and advocates to decorate a shirt ex-

ing the pursuit, the suspect quickly became caught in traffic at 31st and Iowa, then drove over a concrete median into the southbound lane.

The officer abandoned pursuit for safety reasons.

The suspect was last seen turning north on Lawrence Avenue. About five minutes later, McKinley said, a resident in the 2500 block of Atchison Avenue reported a vehicle driving through back yards in the area.

Officers discovered the vehicle abandoned and containing keys, a stun gun,

marijuana and other personal items, said McKinley, who added that the driver faces several charges, McKinley said.

That includes businesses as well as cabins and vacation homes. Over the course of four years, their rates will rise until they reflect the â&#x20AC;&#x153;true riskâ&#x20AC;? of flood damage.

People with a primary residence in those areas will continue to receive subsidized coverage as long as they own the property, and as long as they keep the policies current.

But once the property is sold, or if the insurance lapses for any reason, owners will have to pay the full cost of the policies.

New policies sold after July 6, 2012, are now being charged the full cost of the risk, Megrail said.

According to information from FEMA, there are 168 subsidized policies is-

sued under the program for properties in Douglas County, or about 27 percent of all flood insurance policies. There are 450 policies that are not subsidized and, therefore, will not be affected by the changes.

Trent McKinley, a police department spokesman. Even so, the increased patrols did not yield a similar increase in citations.

Designation for courthouse In other business, commissioners discussed the possibility of seeking historic designation for the Douglas County Courthouse through the city of Lawrenceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Historic Resources Commission.

The building is already listed on both federal and state registers of historic places. But commission chairman Mike Gaughan, a Democrat, noted that a recent change in state law

violations. McKinley said police issued 10 speeding tickets and performed one DUI/OUI arrest.

Lt. Steve Lewis, a Douglas County Sheriffâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Office spokesman, also reported no significant increase in calls over the four-day holiday weekend.

Statewide, Kansas Highway Patrol reported drops in adult seat belt citations (down to 230 from 349 in 2012) and speeding citations (down to 1,343 from 1,568 in 2012). Highway patrol officers also issued far fewer seat belt warnings than last year: 16, down from 58. The Highway Patrol, meanwhile, worked two fatalities: one in Hays on Nov. 28 and another near Cimarron on Nov. 30.

State may seek death penalty in 4 killings OSWEGO â&#x20AC;&#x201D; No decision has been made on whether to seek the death penalty for a 22-year-old man charged with capital murder in the deaths of a southeast Kansas woman and her three children, an assistant attorney general said Wednesday after a court hearing.

David Cornell Bennett Jr. is charged with threatening, raping and killing 29-year-old Cami Umbarger, and killing her children, 4-year-old Averie Betts, 6-year-old Jaxon Betts and 9-year-old Hollie Betts. Their bodies were found Nov. 25 in their home in Parsons. Authorities have not said how they died.

means those designations no longer protect the â&#x20AC;&#x153;environsâ&#x20AC;? around the building.

Putting the courthouse on the local historic property lists would give its environs protection under local zoning and building codes. â&#x20AC;&#x153;With the ongoing rejuvenation of downtown and off (Massachusetts Street), I feel itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s important for us to have a say in the development around our environs, and this building in particular,â&#x20AC;?

Gaughan said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not to say we oppose any proposal in particular. We want to work with people who work with us.â&#x20AC;?

Lawrence developer Doug Compton has proposed building a multistory apartment and retail

building at 11th and Massachusetts, directly north of the courthouse.

Commissioner Jim Flory, a Republican, expressed reservations about the idea, saying the county might be ceding some of its own authority to make future decisions about the building itself. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I understand desire to designate this as historic,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But are we giving up our right to make this a building that best serves this county and future county commissions?â&#x20AC;?

Commissioners took no action, but Gaughan indicated the issue will likely come up on the countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s agenda in the near future.

of awareness,â&#x20AC;? Burns said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Instead of having it in a certain hall where one type of major may go, thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a diversity of groups at The Underground.â&#x20AC;?

One in three women have previously or will experience domestic violence, and women ages 16 to 24 are at the highest risk. Because most traditional college studentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; ages fall into this category, Burns said the project needed to have exposure on the KU campus. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In theory, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a perfect age to think about healthy relationships,â&#x20AC;? Burns said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We never quite know the profound impact the artwork will have on people.â&#x20AC;?

Burns said the project aimed to combat one of the leading reasons why domestic abusers commit violent acts: limited accountability to stop the abuse. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Holding abusers accountable is the number one thing we can do to prevent violence against women,â&#x20AC;? Burns said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;and this project aims to start that dialogue on a communal level.â&#x20AC;?

The T-shirts will be on display in the windows of The Underground throughout December.

Actor, city employee shares trait with title character in Theatre Lawrence’s ‘Shrek’

By John R. Phythyon Jr.

I

f you’re looking for the perfect actor to play Shrek, the green-skinned ogre who is the subject of the beloved film and now a Broadway musical coming to Theatre Lawrence for the holidays, it would be hard to find someone better suited to the role than Knute Pittenger.

Not because he’s tall and broad-shouldered. (Although he is.) Not because he’s surly and bad-tempered. (He’s quite the opposite.)

No, it’s because he shares one important trait with his character.

“Donkey,” he says in a perfect Scottish accent in one of the show’s more famous scenes, “ogres are like onions. They have layers.”

Pittenger, a blue-collar veteran of the Vietnam War, he works for the city’s Water Department. He turns on service for new tenants, turns it off for those moving out and, often, tells delinquent customers to pay their bills so he won’t have to shut it off right then.

“I can be the Grim Reaper or their best friend,” he says. “They cuss at me when I have to shut it off, and they’re very happy to see me when I turn it back on.”

This month, there is a lot of turnover in apartments because of KU fall graduation.

He spends much of his day shutting down service at places where a tenant is leaving and getting an initial reading on a meter for a customer just starting up.

“I’ve been doing this for 24 years,” he says. “It’s wonderful. I’ve seen the city grow.”

Layers. Contained in that answer is a clue to whom he really is.

“I like my job,” he says. “It’s a lot like theater — you meet a lot of different people.”

Blue-collar actor On a recent day, he stops in at a Dillons to collect water payments from the city’s collection box there. But he can’t leave without stopping to greet one of the employees. She participated in a store costume contest to see who could dress up the best as one of the guys from “Duck Dynasty.”

“Do you know if you won?” he asks her, convinced she looked perfect when he saw her in costume.

“Not yet,” she replies.

He takes a moment to share her frustration before he moves on to his next adventure, reading more meters.

Layers.

His large, bear-like frame can look imposing, but it masks a gentle soul, a man who loves a Rodgers and Hammerstein song

KNUTE PITTENGER, IN COSTUME AS SHREK, the title character in Theatre Lawrence’s upcoming production, sits in the Theatre Lawrence seats with a stuffed Shrek toy Tuesday. Pittenger has been the lead actor in several Theatre Lawrence musical productions, a far cry from his day job as an employee for the city’s Water Department. “Shrek” opens Friday at Theatre Lawrence, 4660 Bauer Farm Drive, and runs through Dec. 22.

Band touring to help Colorado flood relief

By Nadia Imafidon nimafidon@ljworld.com

The five-piece bluegrass band Infamous Stringdusters are stopping in Lawrence this weekend on their winter â&#x20AC;&#x153;Road to Boulderâ&#x20AC;? tour, while raising money to help those affected by the devastating floods that took place in Colorado in September.

Dobro player Andy Hall lives in the mountains of Lyon, Colo., the area of Boulder County that was hit worst, leaving an estimated $1 billion in damage. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When all of this flooding happened in Boulder, we were playing in Denver at the time,â&#x20AC;? says bass player and vocalist Travis Book. â&#x20AC;&#x153;[Hall] had to fourwheel out 10 miles on a back road just to get to the gig.â&#x20AC;?

Book grew up in Durango, Chris Pandolfi (banjo) lives in Denver and the entire band thinks of Boulder as home because of the community support and encouragement they received when they formed seven years ago.

A bluegrass festival called RockyGrass is held in Boulder annually; it was one of the first gigs they had booked. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s one of the best music festivals in the country,â&#x20AC;?

Book says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They helped us get started as a band, and paid us way more than we

were worth.â&#x20AC;?

Infamous Stringdusters released the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Road To Boulderâ&#x20AC;? EP, featuring accordion-player Bruce Hornsby, and a single written by Andy Hall about his decision to move from Nashville to Boulder. The other three tracks were recorded live at Bluegrass Underground, a music series hosted in Cumberland

Caverns Volcano Room, 333 feet underground in McMinnville, Tenn.

Proceeds from the EP are going to the Oskar Blues CANâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d Aid Foundation for flood relief, a Colorado-based brewing companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nonprofit. One dollar of every tour ticket sold will go directly to the relief fund. To date, Oskar Blues has raised nearly $250,000 and distributed over $200,000 to individuals, families and small businesses affected by the September flooding. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve sort of made it a policy of ours to try to do something more than just play shows and sell tickets and sell records,â&#x20AC;? Book says, referring to their summerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s American Rivers tour, raising $10,000 for an organization working hard to protect our nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s river and streams. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a good habit for us to

do some kind of engagement with a nonprofit.â&#x20AC;?

The band plans on holding a pre-show Oskar Blues gathering at each location, where fans can socialize with each other and members of the band.

Book says itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a good way to extend the depths of the evening and get the ball rolling early. No venue has been confirmed yet in Lawrence yet. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They are going to be pouring Oskar brews and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to be a great big social scene,â&#x20AC;? Book says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s always great when we can get people together in a bar that have more in common than just a desire to drink in a bar.â&#x20AC;?

The show will be at 8 p.m. Friday at Liberty Hall, 644 Massachusetts St., an appropriate venue for the different kinds of fans that follow the Stringdusters, Book says. The upstairs seating area will be for fans who come to their shows for the pure bluegrass music, who want to listen intently to the picking and singing. Downstairs will be for the fans who dance like mad, Book says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A lot of fans are in it for the experience and scene, and to be swept up by the music,â&#x20AC;? Book says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our music is best experienced in person.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Features reporter Nadia Imafidon can be reached at 832-6342. Follow her at Twitter.com/nadia_imafidon.

as much as a perfectly thrown touchdown pass.

Ask him about the Chiefsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; three-game losing streak, and he groans painfully. Mention KUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s football program, and heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s even more upset about the downward spiral of the last four years.

Is this a guy you would expect to find playing iconic roles at the local community theater? â&#x20AC;&#x153;If I could do theater for a living, I would,â&#x20AC;? he muses.

Layers.

Larger-than-life roles Look at the list of characters heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s played over the last eight years at Theatre Lawrence, and it reads like a laundry list of coveted roles for male actors: The Beast in â&#x20AC;&#x153;Disneyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Beauty and the Beast;â&#x20AC;? Horton the Elephant in â&#x20AC;&#x153;Seussical the Musical;â&#x20AC;? The Old Man in â&#x20AC;&#x153;A Christmas Story;â&#x20AC;?

Daddy Warbucks in â&#x20AC;&#x153;Annie;â&#x20AC;? Captain von Trapp in â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Sound of Music;â&#x20AC;? and now the title role in â&#x20AC;&#x153;Shrek.â&#x20AC;?

How does a blue-collar city worker end up in such an enviable position? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Part of it is the stature,â&#x20AC;? he says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got a Beast in â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Beauty and the Beast,â&#x20AC;&#x2122; you need a big guy. A lot of it is the visual. When you walk in (to auditions), do you look like the part? â&#x20AC;&#x153;I pick roles that way.

I go through the list of shows when the season (is announced) and think, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t do that part, but maybe I could do that one.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;?

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s worked. Pittenger has played roles not only at Theatre Lawrence but also at Baldwin Community Theater and Topeka Civic Theater. He doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get turned down often. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sometimes, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d rather be lucky than good,â&#x20AC;? he says.

Layers.

He keeps landing the parts every guy wants, but he stays humble. He considers himself fortunate and is mindful of his limitations. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Another prerequisite for me is, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Do I need to dance?â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;? he confesses. â&#x20AC;&#x153;No? Thumbs up!â&#x20AC;?

But how did an everyday guy â&#x20AC;&#x201D; a former soldier and a diehard sports fan â&#x20AC;&#x201D; become so enamored of musicals?

LAWRENCE LIBATION

By Nadia ImaďŹ don

RUEST While the cold weather makes leaving the house that much harder, the hot seasonal beverages that await us might just be convincing enough.

Warm up at The Bourgeois Pig with a drink the bartender refers to as â&#x20AC;&#x153;amped apple cider,â&#x20AC;? a seasonal favorite.

This libation is made with hot cider, Tuaca liqueur (brandy, orange essence and vanilla) and Leopoldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s apple whiskey, and topped with whipped cream and a cinnamon stick. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s for apple cider lovers who arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t messing around. It arrives in a tall glass, full of holiday joy.

Spiked cider (brandy) is also on the menu, but with this hardcore option, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hard to choose such a standard beverage.

The hard stuff: Tuaca, Leopoldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Apple Whiskey Where itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s served: Bourgeois Pig, 6 E. Ninth St. What it costs: $9 Other libations at this location: Wine, beer and specialty drinks like the popular Moscow Mule, served in a copper cup.

Other seasonal drinks include the Boulevard

Church to perform anti-suicide play Beginning this weekend, Eagle Rock Church will perform an anti-suicide play, titled â&#x20AC;&#x153;Eliâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Amazing Workshop.â&#x20AC;?

The play is based on a childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s book, â&#x20AC;&#x153;You are Specialâ&#x20AC;? by Max Lucado, about a puppet who comes to realize that he is special.

The play will feature music, laughs and a Dr. Seuss-esque stage, said church founder and director Lisa McFarland.

The church will perform the play throughout the weekends of Dec. 6 and 13.

There is no cost of admission and every guest will receive a free hot dog, drink and popcorn.

Friday and Saturday shows begin at 7 p.m., with

doors opening at 6 p.m. Sunday shows begin at 3 p.m., with doors opening at 2 p.m.

McFarland said itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the firstever play put on by the church.

She said she chose it after reading media coverage of the suicide rate in the LawrenceDouglas County area over the past several years. â&#x20AC;&#x153;That really got me stirred up,â&#x20AC;? McFarland said.

The performances will be held at Eagle Rock Church, 3200 Haskell Ave. To reserve tickets, call 393-6791.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;When I was a child,â&#x20AC;? he explains, â&#x20AC;&#x153;on Saturday, my brother and I couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t go out and play until we had our rooms cleaned.

Mom would clean the house while we were working on our rooms, and sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d always put on an album. It was always a Broadway musical â&#x20AC;&#x201D; â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;The King and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; or â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;West Side Storyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; or something like that. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I kind of thanked my mom for making me stay in and listen to theater tunes.â&#x20AC;?

Layers.

People person For his lunch break, Pittenger heads to Chipotle on Sixth Street. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s busy, and thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a line. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Howâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s your day going so far?â&#x20AC;? he asks the worker when he finally makes it to the front, and he is genuinely interested. When she tells him itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been stressful, he sympathizes. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I find classical music calming,â&#x20AC;? he says later. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A lot of times, when I have to face angry people on collections calls, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll put on KPR just to keep me calm.â&#x20AC;?

And thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s something else he has in common with his character: a heart of gold. He has a tough job, but he hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t allowed it to jade him. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s always interested in the next person he meets. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a lot of people in (the cast of) â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Shrekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know before,â&#x20AC;? he says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I like that. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s how you meet people.â&#x20AC;?

Knute Pittenger has more layers than an onion or, indeed, than his greenskinned alter ego. Starting Friday night, heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll get to spend another holiday season exploding stereotypes by showing off one of his favorites. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; John R.

10 whales dead, 41 stranded in Everglades’ shallow waters EvErgladEs NatioNal Park, Fla. (aP) — Wildlife workers in boats struggled unsuccessfully Wednesday to coax nearly four dozen pilot whales out of dangerous shallow waters in Florida’s Everglades National Park, hoping to spare them the fate of 10 others that already had died.

The workers suspended their efforts after dark, but planned to return Thursday morning to try again, said Kim Amendola, spokeswoman for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, which is taking part in the effort.

Six of the whales were found dead, and four of the whales had to be euthanized Wednesday, said Blair Mase, coordinator for NOAA’s marine mammal stranding network. At least three could be seen on the beach, out of the water.

The whales are stranded in a remote area near Highland Beach, the western boundary of Everglades National Park and about 20 miles east of where they normally live. It takes more than an hour to reach the spot from the nearest boat

“We want to set the expectation low, because the challenges are very, very difficult,” Mase said.

Park spokeswoman Linda Friar said rescuers were trying to surround the whales, which were in roughly 3 feet of salt water about 75 feet from shore,

and herd them back to sea.

“They are not cooperating,” Friar said.

Workers also tried to nudge the whales out to sea earlier in the day with no success.

The short-finned pilot whales typically live in very deep water. Even if rescuers were able to begin nudging the 41 remain-

ing whales out to sea, Mase said they would encounter a series of patches of shallow water along the way.

This particular whale species is also known for its close-knit social groups, meaning if one whale gets stuck or stays behind, the others are likely to stay behind or even beach themselves as well.

Newtown 911 tapes reveal terror, urgency NEWtoWN, CoNN. — With terror in her voice, Barbara Halstead begged with police dispatchers for help, ending her 24-second 911 call with the haunting plea of “Sandy Hook School please” as 11 gunshots rang out in the background.

Those shots fired by Adam Lanza were in the school hallway on Dec. 14. Principal Dawn Hochsprung and school psychologist Mary Sherlach were the first of 26 victims, including 20 first-graders, killed in the rampage.

After months of debate, Newtown officials Wednesday released six 911 calls received by the Police Department as the shooting was unfolding. Halstead’s was the first made that morning.

Custodian Rick Thorne could be heard on at least three. He spent more than 10 minutes on the phone with dispatchers.

The calls provide insight both into the terror faced by teachers and staff members and the poise with which they sought help in the face of immediate danger. The calls offer few new details on police response or Lanza’s actions that morning.

Thorne’s first call ended just as Lanza killed himself.

His last ended with him urgently identifying himself to Newtown officers who entered the building nearly six minutes after they had arrived.

A BUs drives past a sign reading ‘Welcome to Sandy Hook’ Wednesday in Newtown, Conn. The 911 calls from the Sandy Hook elementary School shootings released Wednesday show the panic of callers inside the school.

In one call, an unidentified teacher who was shot in the foot tells the dispatcher that she is bleeding.

She says there are children in the classroom with her, but the door is not locked and that she did not believe it was safe to lock it.

The 911 calls were released after a Superior Court judge denied an attempt by Danbury State’s Attorney Stephen Sedensky to keep them sealed.

Town officials also sought to keep the calls from becoming public, saying they were concerned about how the release would affect victims’ families.

An 11-month investigation has not been able to determine Lanza’s motive in the second-deadliest mass shooting in U.S. history.

biden meets with Chinese president amid tensions over air defense zone BEiJiNg — After months of planning a trip to boost U.S. trade with Asia, Vice President Joseph Biden instead is leading an urgent diplomatic mission to calm tensions between China and its neighbors and to prevent a potential conflict.

After arriving here Wednesday, Biden closeted himself with President Xi Jinping for 5 1/2 hours in what U.S. officials described as an effort to reassure anxious allies in the region, and to prevent further escalation of the dispute over China’s recent declaration of an air defense identification zone over islands that Japan administers.

The White House hopes Biden can persuade Xi to

Sea and South China Sea have rattled its neighbors, including Japan, Korea, Vietnam.

U.S. officials said Biden’s

closed-door discussions and working dinner with Xi in the Great Hall of the People covered both strategic and granular topics, from Iran and North Korea to Chinese interest rate liberalization and reforms.

Aides say the two men, who have met repeatedly in the past, share a close personal bond.

But despite two lengthy exchanges, the pair did not resolve the thorny issue that has overshadowed Biden’s trip: China’s abrupt declaration on Nov. 23 that all foreign aircraft must seek Chinese permission to enter a broad area over the East China Sea, including over disputed islands called the Senkaku in Japan.

Terrorist threat A growing terrorist threat raises ongoing questions about how to balance security measures against American freedoms.

A

ccording to leaders of the U.S. House and Senate intelligence committees, this nation and its citizens are more susceptible to terrorist attacks today than they were a year or two ago.

Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., and Rep. Mike Roberts, R-Mich., said there are more terrorist groups today who want to harm America and Americans and that it is becoming increasingly difficult to identify and halt these efforts because of the sophistication of new, deadly devices.

Also, they noted there probably are more smaller terrorist organizations operating independently but with connections to alQaida. These smaller groups are likely to focus more on small terrorist events rather than larger attacks, consequently making it “exponentially harder for our intelligence services to stop an event,” according to Rep. Rogers.

It is good that Feinstein and Rogers are leveling with the American public.

There is no way to guarantee the safety and protection of our cities and citizens, and this should reinforce the public’s support of strong, effective anti-terrorism efforts.

The big question is just how exhaustive and how far government agencies should be allowed to go to keep track of the activities and lifestyles of American citizens. Not necessarily just American citizens, but all those living in the U.S. Where do freedoms conflict with security efforts to protect the country? This is the question that exploded when details about spying efforts by the National Security Agency were made public.

As noted above, it is almost impossible to stop all terrorist efforts here in the U.S. It’s likely the public would be amazed to learn of the number of terrorist plots that have been foiled by our intelligence efforts, but it’s almost certain there will be more attacks. Our borders are easy to cross; our coastline is open; ships of all sizes and kinds enter our seaports; and those who live in this country are free to move about wherever they wish.

Federal, state and local officials have done a superior job of protecting this country, and, as noted above, it is good that Feinstein and Rogers have alerted the public about the severity of the situation.

Maybe we’ve just been lucky there have not been more successful terrorist attacks in the U.S., but as the old adage points out, “luck favors the prepared mind.”

Uncle Sam must remain even more alert with a prepared mind if this nation is to be able to foil the almost-sure-tocome terrorist efforts.

Sharing the wealth not a radical idea I like capitalism.

Specifically, I like the idea that if I write a better book, have a better idea, build a better mousetrap, I will be rewarded accordingly. A system where everyone gets the same reward regardless of quality or quantity of work is inconsistent with excellence and innovation, as the mediocrity and inefficiency that beset the Soviet Union readily proves.

The woman who is successful under capitalism gets to eat steak and lobster whenever she wants. That’s never bothered me. What does bother me is the notion

Leonard Pitts Jr. lpitts@miamiherald.com

“

Some us feel that until the hungry one is fed and the naked one clothed, the best of us is unfulfilled, no matter how many HDTVs and iPads he owns.” that the unsuccessful man who lacks that woman’s talent, resources, opportunities or luck should not get to eat at all. There is something obscene in the notion that a person can work full time for a multinational corporation and earn not enough to keep a roof over his head or food on his table. The so-called safety net by which we supposedly protect the poor ought to be a solid floor, a level of basic sustenance through which we, as moral people, allow no one to fall — particularly if their penury is through no fault of their own.

Maybe you regard that

opinion as radical and extremist. Maybe it is. But if so, I am in excellent company.

Martin Luther King, for instance, mused that “there must be a better distribution of wealth and maybe America must move toward a democratic socialism.”

The Apostle Paul writes in 2 Corinthians 8:13-15, that it’s wrong for some to live lives of ease while others struggle.

“The goal is equality, as it is written: ‘The one who gathered much did not have too much and the one who gathered little did not have too little.’” In Acts 4:32, Luke writes approvingly of the early church that: “No one claimed that any of their possessions was their own, but they shared everything they had.”

Which brings us to the pope — and Rush Limbaugh.

As you may have heard, the former has issued his first Apostolic Exhortation, The Joy of the Gospel, in which, among other things, he attacks the free market and what he calls an “economics of exclusion.” This had the latter up in arms last week on

his radio show.

Pope Francis writes that poverty must be “radically resolved by rejecting the absolute autonomy of markets and financial speculation and by attacking the structural causes of inequality ...”

“This is astounding ... and it’s sad,” says Limbaugh. “It’s actually unbelievable.”

“How can it be that it is not a news item,” writes the pope, “when an elderly homeless person dies of exposure, but it is news when the stock market loses two points?”

“This is just pure Marxism coming out of the mouth of the pope,” fumes Limbaugh.

Trickle-down economics, writes the pontiff, “expresses a crude and naive trust in the goodness of those wielding economic power …”

Maybe, says Limbaugh, his words were deliberately mistranslated by “the left.” No, seriously, he said that.

But then, some of us are fine with faith so long as it speaks in platitudinous generalities or offers a weapon to clobber gay people with,

Role of college athletics grows

By Gene A. Budig and Alan Heaps

For my 23 years as a university president/chancellor, I encouraged increased emphasis on intercollegiate athletics, believing at the time that the reasons were well-founded. In the main, they were.

At Illinois State University, Will Robinson was the first African-American head basketball coach in Division 1 history and he coached Doug Collins, the school’s only consensus All-American and No. 1 pick in the 1973 NBA draft.

Collins, a professional all-star guard, remained close to ISU. The college was also a pioneer in women’s sports and was one of America’s three leaders in producing elementary and secondary school teachers.

I reasoned that a brighter light would benefit the Illinois State image, assist in student recruiting and help raise more private funding, especially for student scholarships and women’s sports.

It worked well.

At West Virginia University, I learned quickly that the state’s 1.8 million residents regarded winning athletic teams as essential, especially in football and men’s basketball. Always sensitive to unfair belittling from outsiders, the Mountaineers were especially proud of their favorite son Jerry West, who was a consensus All-American guard and gold medal winner for the United States in the 1960 Summer Olympics. No athlete has contributed more to Mountaineer lore, and, as a player with the Los Angeles Lakers, he could not be stopped. In 1966, West was voted as one of the 50 greatest players in NBA history.

When we had a head football coach opening in 1980, WVU was under enormous pressure because of a controversial decision to build a new 65,000-seat stadium. We were beginning to raise significant amounts of money for aca-

demic purposes, a clear beneficiary of athletic success.

We reached out to Don Nehlan, quarterback coach at the University of Michigan under Bo Schembechler. He completed a 20-year tenure at Morgantown with a record of 149-93-4, the most wins in school history. He coached l5 first team All-Americans and was inducted into the College Football of Fame in 2005.

Moving to Kansas University as chancellor was different because KU was atop the academic ladder as a member Budig of the Association of American Universities, regarded as America’spremier research schools. And it still is.

But to not recognize the historic Heaps role of men’s basketball would have been an unforgivable sin in the collective eye of the 150,000 alumni. Thus, I was heavily involved in the selection of head basketball coaches, along with athletic directors Monte Johnson and Bob Frederick.

Partially on the advice of Dean Smith, famed University of North Carolina basketball coach and a KU graduate, we went with Larry Brown in 1983 and Roy Williams in 1988. Both posted extraordinary records at Kansas and were inducted into the College Basketball Hall of Fame. KU also produced football All-Americans Gale Sayers and John Hadl, who went on to have Hall of Fame careers in the NFL. KU built one of the 10 largest endowments among state universities during my 13year tenure.

When I left academia in 1994 for the presidency of Major League Baseball’s American League, I still thought college athletics could be a force for good, especially with the sweeping academic reforms being put in place for student classroom performance. The NCAA seemed frozen, however, when it came to addressing skyrocketing expenses for athletic programs. Not many college and university presidents were anxious to say that much either. Too many seemed to fear fan, alumni and public reaction. I did speak out, but to mixed responses Much of college athletics was no longer sport; it was pure entertainment, in the stands and on the television screens. Network and cable agreements became astronomical in value while in-person attendance continued to rise. Much of college sports became market driven.

Despite continued growth in overall income, only 25 to 28 schools are likely to make money this year, universities like Alabama, Texas, Michigan and Oklahoma. Some pundits envision the day when college football will exceed the NFL in attendance and revenue. Amazing!

The last straw for many may have been when we recently learned that college football coaches’ salaries were up 90 percent since 2006, this in a time when state legislators have decimated state university budgets. And faculty salaries have been frozen for all practical purposes.

Clemson’s football coach makes $2.5 million while the just-announced new president will be paid $775,000.

The beat goes on, only with increasing volume.

— Gene A. Budig was a president/chancellor at three major universities and of Major League Baseball’s American League. Alan Heaps was a vice president at the College Board and known for his work with writing and teachers.

but scream bloody murder when it imposes specific demands on their personal conscience — or wallet.

It is perfect that all this unfolds in the season of thanksgiving, faith and joy, as people punch, stun gun and shoot one another over HDTVs and iPads and protesters demand what ought to be the bare minimum of any full-time job: wages sufficient to live on.

This is thanksgiving, faith and joy? No. It is fresh, albeit redundant evidence of our greed — and of how wholeheartedly we have bought into the lie that fulfillment is found in the things we own.

Some of us disagree. Some us feel that until the hungry one is fed and the naked one clothed, the best of us is unfulfilled, no matter how many HDTVs and iPads he owns. This is the radical, extremist ideal embraced by the human rights icon, the Gospel writers, the Bishop of Rome — and me.

PUBLIC FORUM

Biased view To the editor: How fortunate that a spokesman for the local idle rich writes readable pieces for the Journal-World. George Gurley on “fracking” in North Dakota (Dec. 1) is a case in point, although it presents a keen observer’s vision blurred by cataracts of political bias.

His “notes of a hunter” (see Turgenev) are hunky-dory until he opines “the regulatory hand of a government that is hostile to fossil fuels” and “these modern pioneers” are destined to join Kit Carson, Winfield Scott and George Custer as American folk heroes.

The devastation left by our “self-reliant” oil and gas barons on George’s route to the last holdout of a once endless pheasant population is not a price we must pay for economic progress and restoration of the frontier spirit. It rather means that the bosses of today’s roughnecks maintain the momentum of rapacious global mining that leads to earth’s destruction.

George’s description of the “inferno” caused by “garish flames” consuming the upper plains is worthy of Dante’s Inferno. So, too, the destruction of Pompeii in AD 79 by molten lava erupting from Vesuvius, if seen from a hunting helicopter, would have been both “appalling and exhilarating.”

Awaiting Gurley’s deft pen is a vivid portrayal of the Flint Hills on fire as seen by a prairie chicken, or North Dakota’s black gold rush from the perspective of a pheasant that I hope he keeps on hunting as long as able. The rest is silence.

Death at Arrowhead ruled homicide KANSAS CITY, MO. (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The death of a Missouri man in an Arrowhead Stadium parking lot during Kansas Cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s game this weekend was ruled a homicide Wednesday, but police said it could still take weeks before they know what killed him.

Kyle Van Winkle, 30, of Smithville, was unconscious on the ground when police responded to a disturbance call around 5:20 p.m. in Lot A at Truman Sports Complex, where Arrowhead is located.

In announcing the Jackson County medical examinerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ruling Wednesday, police spokes-

man Darin Snapp said that wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t change how the case is being handled. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Detectives have been working the case as a homicide from the beginning, so the investigation will not change,â&#x20AC;? he said.

Van Winkle, the son of a police sergeant, apparently left the stadium early in the game and went to the parking lot, where he got into a Jeep that looked like the vehicle he came to the game in, Kansas City police spokesman Tye Grant said.

The Jeepâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s owner found Van Winkle, which led to an argument. People tailgating nearby

then came over and began fighting with Van Winkle, he said.

Dean Van Winkle said his son left his seat to go to the restroom but never came back. He said Kyle didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t appear to be intoxicated or ill when he left. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He collapsed during the struggle and was found to be not breathing,â&#x20AC;? Grant said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s when a person at the scene began doing CPR on him.â&#x20AC;?

Van Winkle was taken to a hospital, where he was pronounced dead. It could be four to six weeks before the medical examiner determines the cause of death, police said.

Four people were taken into custody for questioning but none was charged. Police executed a search warrant Monday at a home in the Kansas City suburb of Independence after learning of possible evidence there. A No. 25 Chiefs jersey, blue jeans and tennis shoes were seized, according to the search warrant returned Wednesday.

According to Van Winkleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s obituary, he was married and had a 7-week-old son. He played football at William Jewell College, where he earned a bachelorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s degree, and was employed at Community America Credit Union.

Lobbying starts early for BCS

30/243 /. 46 TODAY

By Jim Litke AP Sports Columnist

The just-ended rivalry week ranks among the best that college football has seen in forever.

Now comes the hangover.

Welcome to whining week, that time of year when everybody from the university president to the second-string long snapper for the program most likely to be spurned by the Bowl Championship Series tries his hand at lobbying.

First in line was Auburn athletic director Jay Jacobs, whose 11-1 Tigers were ranked No. 3 Sunday night in the next-to-last BCS standings of the season, behind unbeatens Florida State and Ohio State, respectively. Jacobs didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t even wait to see the official result; he knew what was coming. And so he began howling some 24 hours earlier, just moments after Tigersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; running back Chris Davis put his foot down in the end zone Saturday night to seal the Tigersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; wacky upset over mighty Alabama.

Right after the game, Jacobs actually said â&#x20AC;&#x153;it would be a disservice to the nationâ&#x20AC;? if Auburn were to win next weekendâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Southeastern Conference title against No. 5 Missouri and still be denied a chance to play for the national championship at the Rose Bowl on Jan. 6.

Given a night to sleep on it, he doubled down. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is inarguable,â&#x20AC;? Jacobs said Sunday. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think it would be, quite frankly, un-American for us not to get a chance to go to Pasadena.â&#x20AC;?

This seems like the perfect time to remind him that stifling competition was exactly why guys like Jacobs created the BCS â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and its previous incarnations â&#x20AC;&#x201D; in the first place.

Nearly two decades ago, the power brokers running college footballâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s major conferences hijacked the sportâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s postseason to make certain the choice spots in the big-money bowls went to their friends. If occasionally that meant choosing one friend over another, well, no need to take it personal; thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just how business works.

To be fair, Auburn has plenty to argue about. The Tigers just beat top-ranked Alabama, winner of three of the last four national championships, and three other top-flight teams. Neither Florida State nor Ohio State built anywhere near as impressive a resume this season, in large part because both belong to conferences â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the ACC and Big Ten â&#x20AC;&#x201D; that look weak when stacked against the SEC. And somewhere in the back of Jacobsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; mind, no doubt, is the memory of how a 13-0 Auburn team was left out of the 2004 championship game that matched similarly unbeaten, but much higher-wattage programs Southern California and Oklahoma.

Just like those two teams, Florida State and Ohio State have plenty of friends in high places. The BCS gentlemenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s agreement that holds a oneloss team doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t leapfrog an unbeaten in the rankings.

TALLAHASSEE, FLA. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The prosecutor overseeing the investigation of sexual-assault allegations against Florida State quarterback Jameis Winston says it is completed.

State Attorney Willie Meggs has scheduled a news conference at 1 p.m. today in his office to announce his findings.

Meggs says investigators have learned as much as they can about the December 2012 incident. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We think we have exhausted all investigative tools,â&#x20AC;? Meggs said.

Winston has led the Seminoles to the No. 1 ranking, and theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll play for a conference title Saturday, with a shot at the national crown.

The quarterback also is the leading candidate for the Heisman, and many voters are waiting to see whether Winston will be charged with a crime before casting their ballots. The deadline for Heisman ballots to be turned in is Dec. 9.

ESPN has previously reported that DNA belonging to Winston was found in the underwear of the accuser. A lawyer for Winston has suggested that the quarterback and the accuser had consensual sex. But the family of the victim has accused the 19-year-old of rape.

Meggs has said he wanted to make sure prosecutors completed a thorough investigation before making a final decision. He also has said several times that itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s up to prosecutors to determine whether there is a â&#x20AC;&#x153;reasonableâ&#x20AC;? chance of conviction.

Timothy Jansen, the attorney representing Winston, said he does not know what Meggs will announce. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re hoping and waiting like everyone else, and we believe the evidence will exonerate Mr. Winston,â&#x20AC;? Jansen said.

Steelersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; coach fined $100,000 PITTSBURGH â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Steelers coach Mike Tomlinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ill-timed two-step has cost him $100,000 and could cost his team a pick in next yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s draft.

The league fined Tomlin $100,000 on Wednesday for interfering with a play against the Baltimore Ravens on Thanksgiving.

The NFL also said it would consider docking Pittsburgh a draft pick â&#x20AC;&#x153;because the conduct affected a play on the field.â&#x20AC;?

Tomlin was not penalized during the game for a rule violation. He called the play â&#x20AC;&#x153;embarrassing, inexcusable, illegal and a blunderâ&#x20AC;? on Tuesday but stressed it was not intentional.

Bills sign ex-Chief Moeaki ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Tight end Tony Moeaki will get whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s essentially a four-week tryout in Buffalo to show heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s healthy after being signed by the Bills on Wednesday.

The former Chiefs player has been out since breaking his shoulder in Kansas Cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s preseason win over Pittsburgh on Aug. 23. He was then released by the Chiefs after reaching an injury settlement in October.

A look at KUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s volleyball players

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

In the weeks and months following their run to the 2012 NCAA Tournament and the best season in school history, the members of Kansas Universityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s volleyball team began to notice a change in the way they were received by the public.

Waves and smiles replaced anonymity, praise became more common, and fans, of KU and volleyball in general, began to shower KUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s top players with treatment worthy of one of the top-ranked teams in the country. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Around town, when we say weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re on the volleyball team, people always tell us how they go to the games and have so much fun,â&#x20AC;? senior setter Erin McNorton said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s really cool.â&#x20AC;?

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not just around town where the Jayhawks â&#x20AC;&#x201D; who will open NCAA Tournament play in Allen Fieldhouse for the second year in a row at 6:30 p.m.

Friday â&#x20AC;&#x201D; have experienced a spike in popularity. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We get recognized more, when weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re out, especially,â&#x20AC;? senior libero Brianne Riley said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;And weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve all noticed that our Twitter followers and Instagram followers have gone up. But itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cool getting the recognition, and that makes us work harder and makes all that we put into feel like itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s worth it.â&#x20AC;?

For those who may know the story of this teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s success but not the players themselves, hereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a quick glance at every player on the team:

1 Chelsea Albers, Outside Hitter Height: 6-foot-1 Year: Junior Hometown: Papillion, Neb. Favorite Athlete: Kobe Bryant, Los Angeles Lakers.

Favorite Moment This Season: The win at Iowa State (Nov. 20). â&#x20AC;&#x153;We hadnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t won there and thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a tough environment. Winning that game, we took over second place so we kind of took care of two bits of history in one.â&#x20AC;?

Year: Sophomore Hometown: Richmond, Texas Favorite Athlete: LeBron James, Miami Heat Favorite Moment This Season: When everybody on the team came in to practice dressed for Halloween. â&#x20AC;&#x153;That was just the best moment. The coaches had no idea, and everybody just had a ton of fun.â&#x20AC;? She dressed as a track star.

16 Janae Hall, Middle Blocker Height: 6-foot-1 Year: Red-shirt Freshman Hometown: Centennial, Colo.

Favorite Athlete: Ken Griffey Jr., who also is a family friend.

Favorite Moment This Season: Tradition of going to get Dairy Queen treats with red-shirt freshman teammate Maggie Anderson the night before games.

6 Emma Hanson, Outside Hitter Height: 6-foot Year: Freshman Hometown: Sioux Falls, S.D. Favorite Athlete: Becky Hammond, San Antonio Silver Stars Favorite Moment This Season: When she dressed up as coach Bechard for Halloween.

9 Caroline Jarmoc, Middle Blocker Height: 6-foot-2 Year: Senior Hometown: Calgary, Alberta Favorite Athlete: Usain Bolt, Jamaican sprinter Favorite Moment This Season: Victory against Wisconsin in Madison, Wis., on Sept.

13. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I remember were down two sets, and we came all the way back, and we were celebrating like crazy when it was over. That was pretty awesome.â&#x20AC;?

what he puts us through every day.â&#x20AC;?

17 Erin McNorton, Setter Height: 5-foot-9 Year: Senior Hometown: Dallas Favorite Athlete: Dirk Nowitzki, Dallas Mavericks. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It used to be (former Texas Rangers slugger) Josh Hamilton and then he betrayed us.â&#x20AC;?

Favorite Moment This Season: Coming back and beating Wisconsin in Madison, Wis., on Sept. 13 after trailing two sets to none.

3 Brianne Riley, Libero Height: 5-foot-6 Year: Senior Hometown: Naperville, Ill. Favorite Athlete: Danny Riley, younger brother who is a senior catcher at Naperville (Ill.) North High.

Favorite Moment This Season: The Halloween surprise when the entire team showed up to practice dressed in costume. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I had a bath robe on with a shower cap and a bunch of rubber duckies.â&#x20AC;?

10 Tayler Soucie, Middle Blocker Height: 6-foot-1 Year: Freshman Hometown: Osawatomie Favorite Athlete: Jordan Larson, Team USA volleyball Favorite Moment This Season: Seeing the little girls from her hometown club volleyball team come to a match to cheer on the Jayhawks.

available per game outside of season tickets and other internal needs. â&#x20AC;&#x153;With the single-game tickets we had available for this game ... we made them available to our season-ticket holders first, and they bought them all up. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s such a big game for us. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll look very different (in arena) than it has in the past for sure.â&#x20AC;?

Biggers was asked if KU fans may have purchased a significant number of season tickets, just to be assured admittance to the KU-CU game. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I guess that is possible.

Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no way for us to know that,â&#x20AC;? Biggers said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m sure there are Kansas fans that live in Colorado.

Maybe they are CU fans most of the year, and they went to KU, and this is the one game they are KU fans. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m sure that could happen as well. And there is always the chance to buy tickets on the secondary market. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think the majority are CU fans because they are coming to our games on an every-game basis.

Center). Our game against Harvard was jam-packed. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t here in the past, but Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve heard Kansas made a pretty good presence, whether it was 50 percent (as J-W suggested to him) or not. I know they were loud, and I think compared to that, it will be very much a 90 percent CU crowd.â&#x20AC;?

One thing is for sure: The CU fans in attendance will be fired up in trying to even the score from some lopsided results during the Buffsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; days in the Big 12. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Coach Boyle is a huge part, the players are a huge part (of CU mania),â&#x20AC;?

Biggers said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Tad is hugely popular ... the recruiting and coaching, the job heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s done representing this program so well. â&#x20AC;&#x153;For the last two years, our student section, called the C-Unit, has been extremely supportive and one of the best student sections in the country.

Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve shown up in force.â&#x20AC;?

In a game littered with turnovers, the Jayhawks coughed it up 22 times â&#x20AC;&#x201D; many of them travels â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and shot 41 percent from the floor.

KU delivered a 2-of-12 effort from three-point range on 51 total shots.

Outside of the 14-of-24 shooting from Harper and junior forward Chelsea Gardner, who tallied 14 points and seven rebounds in limited minutes because of foul trouble, the rest of the Jayhawks made just seven field goals on 27 attempts.

Statistically speaking, the Razorbacks were not far-and-away better than KU. They shot roughly the same percentage, turned it over 17 times themselves and were out-rebounded by Kansas 33-32. The Razorbacks were better when it mattered most, both during a 12-2 secondhalf run that turned a onepoint deficit into a 50-41 lead, and down the stretch after KU had closed within three points with two minutes to play. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been in three one-possession games with under four minutes to play,â&#x20AC;? Henrickson said, referencing losses to Minnesota, Xavier and now Arkansas. â&#x20AC;&#x153;And weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve given up offensive rebounds.â&#x20AC;?

With no interest in hitting the panic button, Henrickson said the fix for KUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s current three-game losing skid was simple. â&#x20AC;&#x153;At some point, you gotta do your job,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not shocked when we go into lulls and donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t score, but we talked this summer about how weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d have to defend and rebound, early and often, and be solid on that end of the floor while we developed an offensive flow and rhythm and timing.â&#x20AC;?

her family, she said that having her ex-mother-inlaw in attendance at dinner would be awkward.

So I did not invite Marsha.

When my mother next saw Marsha, she mentioned how nice it was to see my friend, and of course, Aunt Marsha was miffed that she wasn’t included. After several attempts to contact my aunt, I received an email that she was upset and hurt, and that she had waited around for a phone call to be invited over and it never

NBC revives TV tradition: live musicals Has NBC found the future in television’s past? Tonight the Peacock Network offers a threehour presentation of the beloved Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein musical with “The Sound of Music Live!” (7 p.m.).

Country music star and “American Idol” alumna Carrie Underwood stars as novitiate-turnedgoverness Maria, and Stephen Moyer (”True Blood”) has been cast as Capt. Von Trapp.

The original 1965 big-screen musical with Julie Andrews and Christopher Plummer consistently attracts a large audience when rebroadcast on ABC. Much like “The Wizard of Oz,” ‘‘The Ten Commandments,” ‘‘A Christmas Story” and “It’s a Wonderful Life,” ‘‘The Sound of Music” has become a pop-culture phenomenon through repeated and habitual television airings. NBC has high hopes that tonight’s live interpretation becomes a television tradition as well.

Live television was a staple of TV’s early years, before broadcasts were captured on videotape.

Over the decades, live presentations of musicals, including “Peter Pan” (1955) and “Cinderella” (1957, 1965 and 1997), reached large audiences and became enduring television favorites when rebroadcast.

As we all know, television ratings have steadily plummeted due to the proliferation of TiVos, DVRs and streaming services, which have allowed audiences to watch whatever they like whenever they want.

Given all the choices that time shifting and streaming allows, the notion of a live broadcast with all of its high-wire aspects stands out.

Of course, actors in theaters perform live every time they tread the boards. And sporting events are also broadcast as they happen, losing their appeal in repeats. Perhaps that’s why live NFL games still deliver solid ratings.

Tonight’s Other Highlights

Too much family togetherness for April on “Grey’s Anatomy” (8 p.m., ABC).

Contestants design a dinner outfit for Marge Simpson on “Project Runway All Stars” (8 p.m., Lifetime).

Pierre vows to protect Camille as a power outage descends on the town on “The Returned” (8 p.m., Sundance).

Peter collaborates with his ex on “White Collar” (8 p.m., USA).

Sherlock defends his life and reputation on the witness stand on “Elementary” (9 p.m., CBS).

Revealed secrets test longstanding relationships on “Scandal” (9 p.m., ABC).

BIRTHDAYS Singer Little Richard is 81.

Author Calvin Trillin is 78. Pop singer Jim Messina is 66. Country singer Gary Allan is 46. Comedian-actress Margaret Cho is 45.

Writer-director Morgan J. Freeman is 44. Actress Amy Acker is 37. Actor Nick Stahl is 34. Actor Frankie Muniz is 28.

came. She said, “I know it is your house and your company, but my feelings are hurt.”

Annie, I never intended to hurt her. It’s just how things worked out.

But she still hasn’t spoken to either my mother or I in six months. She ignores my mother’s calls, cards and attempts to reach out. What can I do to help my mother? She misses her best friend. — Omaha, Neb. Dear Omaha: You actually owe Marsha an apology. You promised to include her, and then you didn’t, nor did you let her know. We realize it was your friend who changed the plans, but you still should have informed Marsha. Instead, she felt excluded from your family. That said, she is being rather unforgiving and pigheaded about it. If you haven’t apologized, please do so. The rest will simply have to run its course.

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS

For Thursday, Dec. 5: This year you open up to many different lifestyles and attitudes. You often meet people quite different from you without any effort. If you are single, you might attract a new friend who introduces you to your next passion. If you are attached, work on your communication.

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) You might have been thinking about a plan and finally have come to a conclusion. Once more, you become Mr. or Ms. Friendly.

Tonight: Weigh the pros and cons of taking a trip.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) You will be distancing yourself until it becomes obvious that you need to deal with a situation that could implode. Tonight: Till the wee hours.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) A partner seems to have assumed control of a key matter. This change of responsibilities could be all right with you. Tonight: Choose to do something new.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) You’ll be taken aback by a personal matter. The other party could be overassertive, which might cause you to feel cornered. Initiate an important one-on-one discussion; in fact, insist on it. Tonight: Be with a favorite person.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) Your mood quickly changes midday. You are best when networking and socializing. Now is the time to kick back and be spontaneous. Tonight: Listen to a suggestion.

UNIVERSAL CROSSWORD

YAP HAPPY By Mary Jersey

12/5

Dear Annie: My husband and I agree that it is bad behavior to use one’s cellphone while in the company of others.

However, he even thinks someone looking up information or showing pictures is rude. I disagree. He also feels justified in saying something to the offending party.

I think it’s best to say nothing and simply not go out with them again.

What is your take on this? — Tired of Arguing Dear Tired: Showing pictures on your phone to people at the table is not rude unless it turns into a slide show. Looking up information is fine as long as it is pertinent, such as checking the time of the movie you are planning to see. You may also speak up when someone talks or texts incessantly.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You could be quite creative in the morning when faced with a difficult situation. Lighten up and have an important discussion once others seem more relaxed.

Tonight: Make it early.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) You have been tenacious and diligent about getting a project done. You also feel empowered by its completion and by the comments you get. Tonight: All smiles.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You won’t hesitate to express your opinions, but you could come off a lot sterner than you realize. The key to success will be following through on a particular situation and maintaining a lighter attitude. Tonight: Get a lot done.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Check out the cost of proceeding as you have been. Someone might be more than ready to chip in and help. Tonight: Make weekend plans.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Zero in on what you want. You’ll have many supporters at the present moment, which increases your chances of achieving what you desire. Tonight: Whatever puts a smile on your face.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You might be slow to start, but once you get going, you are a formidable force to stop.

Tonight: If you can dream it, you are likely to be able to conjure it up.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) You have a matter you would prefer to keep under wraps.

Someone might try to coax it out of you, but you will resist. Tonight: Do for you.

Dear Annie: My 58-year-old mother has a best friend whom she has known since they were both 5 years old.

We call her “Aunt Marsha.” She’s been at all of our weddings and holidays. She is still friendly with her ex-daughter-inlaw, who happens to be a good friend of mine.

When Aunt Marsha has a male companion in her life, she typically falls off the face of the Earth. Recently, she found a new guy who happens to be married, so her communication with us is limited.

Right now, Aunt Marsha is upset with both my mother and I because her ex-daughter-in-law was in town with her new husband and daughter, and they stayed with me.

Aunt Marsha knew about the visit, and I told her if we planned any family events, I would let her know. However, when my friend arrived with

Urban living in Lawrence

loving the holidays

I

t is no secret that I love Lawrence. The people, the local shops and restaurants, the enthusiastic events and parades seemingly every other month â&#x20AC;&#x201D; whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not to love?

Lawrenceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s charm certainly lasts the whole year through. That being said, there are definitely some aspects of the winter season that make downtown Mass. Street especially jolly and bright this time of year. Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s take a moment to cherish some of the finer delights.

While the turn in weather tends to push us indoors (The wind! The frostbite! I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t feel my nose!), the moment the holiday lights are strung up downtown â&#x20AC;&#x201D; along with the holly detailing the streetlamp posts and sealed with a red bow â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the cold weather instantly becomes more bearable.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a small shift in perspective, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all that is needed to remind us of the coming festivities. December boasts some wonderful holiday events, too: VanGoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Adornment sale (through Dec. 23) and the Downtown Lawrence OldFashioned Christmas Parade (Dec. 7) are a couple of my favorites. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no better time to grab a hot cup of joe to warm your bones â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and a fresh scone to satisfy your belly â&#x20AC;&#x201D; while doing some holiday shopping or watching horsedrawn carriages stroll down Mass. Street.

Beyond the scheduled events, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nice to simply visit downtown to admire the storefront window displays. The Toy Storeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s windows, 936 Massachusetts St., are always cheerful and imaginative, while Weaverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Department Store, 901 Massachusetts St., makes sure the mannequins are decked out in celebratory attire. I also love the creativity of Foxtrotâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s windows, 823 Massachusetts St. If you get too cold window-shopping, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s quite convenient to pop into the Sunflower Outdoor and Bike Shop, 804 Massachusetts St., to pick up an extra layer of fleece or wool socks. Or, if you need a good warm-up snuggle, I

always enjoy stopping by The Dusty Bookshelf, 708 Massachusetts St., or The Raven Book Store, 8 E. Seventh St., to get some kitten lovinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;. Alice is usually found on the green chair at The Dusty Bookshelf, while Dashiell and Ngaio keep The Raven warm and cozy.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s evident that even on the coldest days, thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a lot to appreciate about downtown Lawrence. Between holiday events, shopping and simply taking pleasure in a winter weather stroll on Mass. Street, this season can warm up your soul with some community love and holiday spirit. I hope you get the chance to take an afternoon off to spend some time downtown this winter season. If nothing else, make sure to grab a hot latte and cherish the lights. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Jessica Pauly, aka Mrs. Mass., gives her thoughts on shopping, urban living and whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s new in Lawrence in CheckOut weekly and on her blog, mrsmass.com.

holiday on THE rails Hop aboard one of the area’s Christmas train rides

T

he Christmas tree twinkles with lights and baubles. A pile of presents sits underneath, and around the base of it all chugs a shiny, new toy train, tooting its horn merrily.

The vision of a train around the base of a Christmas tree is well-established, but I’d never thought much about why until the Kid became obsessed with trains.

“Why a train under the tree?” I wondered. “Why not a boat or a teddy bear or some other toy?”

A few minutes on Google were inconclusive, but the majority opinion seems to be that the tradition began with German immigrants on the East Coast.

It was apparently a European custom to build tiny Christmas villages around the base of a Christmas tree.

Because trains were the major mode of transportation, naturally each miniature village had to have one.

And it was the transportation aspect that seems to have ensured that the train tradition has stuck.

When people more commonly traveled by train, the train station was likely the first place you’d see your loved ones coming home for the holidays. Those beautiful Christmas packages under the tree would also have likely been delivered by train.

In that light, it’s easy to see how trains and Christmas became linked in holiday nostalgia.

As train-crazy as the Kid is, though, we don’t have room for a train under our Christmas tree. Instead, we’ve chosen to make going to visit area Christmas trains a part of our December fun. Luckily, there are two close by.

The Midland Railway in Baldwin City does a Santa Claus Express, which we rode last year. The train leaves from the Santa Fe Depot, 1515 High St., four times a day on the weekend of Dec. 14-15.

The ride includes carolers, stories,

side of the train can be viewed anytime.

It has a smiling, lighted engine, a flat-car carrying Santa’s sleigh, and four cars of elves and gingerbread besides; I’m already excited to see the Kid’s face when he sees it.

Union Station additionally has a free model train exhibit, several showings of “The Polar Express” ($6), and a miniature train ride ($5 or free with a “Polar Express” movie ticket, but your kiddo must be under 48 inches tall).

We’re planning to put the Kid in his Christmas pajamas, catch dinner at Fritz’s in Crown Center — where they deliver your cheeseburger on a train — and have a special holiday family night enjoying all the magic that Christmas trains can bring.

Meryl Carver-Allmond/Special to the Journal-World

ALL ABOARD. The Santa Claus Express runs out of the Santa Fe Depot in Baldwin City, and the ride includes holiday treats, stories, singers and, of course, a visit from Mr. and Mrs. Claus.

— Meryl Carver-Allmond lives in Lawrence and writes about chickens, babies, knitting, gardening, food, photography, and whatever else tickles her fancy on any given day at www.mybitofearth.net.

hot cocoa and cookies. Oh yes, and the Santa and the inside of the train might be big guy — Mr. Claus himself — rides a bit much for my small fellow, the outin the front car where kids can visit him and take photos during the ride. Tickets are $16 for adults and $10 for children, and can be purchased online at www. midlandrailway.org or at the depot before your ride.

If you go, remember to dress warmly.

The train cars are in their historic state, which means they’re heated only by small stoves. Don’t worry, though: If you get too cold like I was, the all-volunteer staff will be happy to pour you an extra hot chocolate.

The second area Christmas train, which we’re planning to visit this year, is the Kansas City Southern Holiday Express Train at Union Station in Kansas City. The Holiday Express will be at Union Station Dec. 18-22. It’s free to walk through, and your family can visit with Santa inside.

Flaring copper tubing

W

ith a wide variety of compression fittings and pushon pipe connectors readily available in the marketplace, flaring copper tubing has become all but obsolete. Relegated primarily for use with liquefied petroleum gas appliances, flare fittings used with flexible copper tubing require a properly shaped and sized flared tubing end to create a leak-proof seal.

Step 1: Use a tubing cutter to cut an appropriately sized section of type M or type L flexible copper tubing. Place the tubing between the cutter jaws and blade. Turn the tubing cutterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s knob to gently tighten

the blade down onto the tubing.

Step 2: Swing the tubing cutter halfway around the tube in one direction and then back again around in the opposite direction. Turn the cutter knob to tighten the blade onto the tubing a little more and repeat the process, swinging the cutter back and forth and tightening the knob gently, until the blade cuts through the tubing.

Step 3: Ream the tubing end and remove any burrs to create a smooth and round opening before proceeding.

Step 4: With the wide end of the nut facing up, slip the flare nut onto the tubing.

Step 5: Secure the tubing into the flaring

block so the cut end of the tube is flush with the top of the block.

Step 6: Position the reaming portion of the flaring tool over the tube opening and gently tighten the reamer down, forcing the cone-shaped end of the tool into the tubing opening. Allow the edges of the copper to splay open until the flared portion of the tubing appears to be the same size as the flaring block opening. If the tubing becomes misshaped or cracked, cut the end off and begin again.

Step 7: Place the rounded tip of the male flare fitting into the concave shape of the flared tube end to test the size and shape.

The two pieces should fit together perfectly, creating a smooth metal-to-metal bond.

Step 8: Remove the tubing from the flare block and pull the flare nut up to the tubing end. The flared end should fit smoothly into the nut and the edges of the flare should not interfere with the threads of the nut.

Step 9: Hand tighten the flare nut onto the male flare fitting. Use an adjustable wrench to finish tightening it to assure a leak proof connection. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Linda Cottin can be reached at checkout@ljworld.com.

the Dependable Diva Everything you need to know (and more) about poinsettias

P

oinsettias are not only the most popular of Christmas plants, but also the one most supported and idolized of all plants. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Poinsettias are the dependable diva of winter blooming houseplantsâ&#x20AC;? is a phrase coined by Ward Upham, horticulturist with Kansas State University Research and Extension, and he adds, â&#x20AC;&#x153;They are divas because they are fairly specific about the care they require.â&#x20AC;?

Here is what they need:

Place the plant in indirect sunlight for at least six hours per day with a room temperature of 65-70 degrees

Close the blinds at night

Do not place near any cold drafts, excessive heat, appliances, fireplaces, ventilation ducts or on top of the television

Water only when the soil feels dry to the touch

Make sure the water drains out the bottom

Do not repot or fertilize the poinsettia while in bloom Here are some facts you can use to start a conversation or bring the discussion back to your favor as a gardener.

The word poinsettia is noun pronounced poin-se-te-ah, or poin-set-uh (rhymes with bruschetta). The Latin name is Euphorbia pulcherrima.

These woody shrubs are native to Taxco, Mexico, where they grow outdoors, as a bush, to a height of 10 feet.

There some call it â&#x20AC;&#x153;el flor de noche buena,â&#x20AC;? or flower of the holy night

The idea that the poinsettia is poisonous is a myth. Admittedly, some people may experience an allergic reaction to the milky latex that exudes from any cut surface, but there are numerous common houseplants, including philodendron,

center of the bracts.

Purchase the healthiest plant you can.

With care, they will live easily through the winter and into May, so spending some additional money on size and quality is worth the cost. Select plants with stiff stems and no signs of wilting or drooping leaves or bracts. The more yellow pollen showing on the flowers, the longer it has been in bloom.

Old plants are missing their actual flowers. Be wary of plants that are displayed in paper, plastic, or mesh sleeves, or crowding in the sales display. Poinsettias need space and the longer they are confined, the more the quality will deteriorate.

Even if the plant looks healthy, avoid those with waterlogged soil as root rot may already have started. As you transport it, use a sleeve or large shopping bag to protect it from the winter cold and Shutterstock Photo wind, and make this the last stop on the DEPENDABLE DIVAS. Poinsettias are divas because they require specific care. way home. dumbcane, and oleander, that are considerably more toxic. A misdiagnosed case in 1919 led to this false belief.

Dec. 12 is Poinsettia Day, which marks the death of Joel Roberts Poinsett in 1851.

Paul Ecke is known as the father of the poinsettia industry, having discovered a way to make the seedlings branch.

His California ranch, now owned by the Dutch based Agribio Group, produces 70 percent of the plants sold in the United States and 50 percent of those worldwide.

Americans spend over $250 million on the 12- to-20-inch-tall house plants.

These are the bestselling potted plant in all of the United States and Canada.

The Poinsettia Bowl was first played in Dec. 20, 1952, as a military championship game. Bolling Air Force Base defeated

the San Diego Naval Training Center by a score of 35-14.

The plant consists of the plant stems, green leaves, colored bracts and a flower.

BUNDLE UP IN STYLE

S

taying warm in the blustery cold of winter can all too easily translate into oversized parkas, ski gloves and orange-knit hunting hats. All of these have their place in winter hobbies, but they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t belong on Massachusetts Street. When strolling across town, consider a few of these stylish updates for your winter wardrobe: HATS

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a widely held belief that most of our body heat is lost through our head.

But scientists have recently debunked this idea.

The myth originated from a flawed 1950s military experiment that exposed soldiers dressed in Arctic survival suits and no hats to extreme temperatures.

The problem? Because their head was the only thing exposed, thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s where most heat was being lost. If the soldiers had been dressed only in their skivvies, heat would have dissipated evenly across their bodies.

That said, you should still wear a winter cap. When you choose one keep it

basic to ensure sartorial longevity. Every man should own at least two styles: a beanie and a flat cap. Each should be in either black or grey, as these will go with nearly everything in your closet.

Beanies come in a variety of fabrics: wool, cotton, fleece, synthetics and blends. Everyone has their preference on which is the warmest. My advice: choose whichever you find most comfortable.

Most importantly, though, ensure it covers your earlobes. The point is to be fashionable and warm.

Flat caps, sometimes called newsie hats or fishermanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s caps, originated in England during the 14th century. In 1571, the Brits passed a law that required men over the age of 6 to don one every Sunday to increase domestic wool consumption.

When these folks immigrated to America, they brought their hats with them.

Today, after years of declining popularity, the flat cap is making a comeback thanks to highly visible British celebrities sporting the cap.

can fold your scarf (a simple YouTube search will reveal several styles of knots), but youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be fine with one around 60-70 inches long and 8-10 inches wide.

SCARVES GLOVES

With your head covered, donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t leave your neck exposed. Choosing a good scarf is very similar to choosing a hat.

Keep the colors simple â&#x20AC;&#x201D; greys and blacks â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and the fabric comfortable. The trick is to find a versatile scarf that goes with your standard go-to winter coat and your favorite sweaters. As long as you avoid anything too flashy (that left-over Whereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Waldo scarf can stay in the closet till next Halloween) and keep the patterns subtle, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be fine.

The last thing to think about when it comes to scarves is length and width.

These measurements can restrict how you

Last but not least, you need to keep your fingers toasty. As with hats, every man should have two pairs of winter gloves: a casual sports glove and a dressier leather glove. Casual gloves should be black and well fitted. For smartphone users, be sure to get a pair with touchscreen tips. As to the leather gloves, look for a black or dark brown pair with cashmere lining. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Nicholas Cunigan is a Ph.D. candidate in early American history at Kansas University.

He blends classic fashion with modern details on a low-cost budget.

styleScout Fashion from the streets of Lawrence

Ed Demasio Rachel Smalter Hall Age: 31 Relationship status: Married Hometown: Cedar Rapids, Iowa Time in Lawrence: Four years maybe.

Occupation: Librarian Dream job: If I weren’t a librarian, I think it would be really fun to have some kind of job in design.

What were you doing when scouted? Just leaving The Dusty Bookshelf book store.

Describe your style: Lately, it’s been clean, simple lines with a little pop of something that is fun.

Fashion trends you love: I love Oxford shoes. I got some on right now. I also like bold patterns and stripes.

Fashion trends you hate: I’m kind of “whatever floats your boat” — wear what makes you happy!

Fashion influences: I love reading fashion blogs. There’s a girl who has a fashion blog called Le Blog de Betty that I’ve been following since 2008. Her name is Betty and she lives in Paris. She’s my ultimate style muse. She’ll throw on like a Michael Jackson “Thriller” jacket every once in awhile but other times her style is really low-key and understated.

What would you like to see more of in Lawrence? A couple of years ago I would have said more good shoes, but Foxtrot has that covered. But anytime you can add more awesome shoe stores, I’m all for that. I’d also like to see more late-night street food.

Less of? Giant packs of people crowding the whole sidewalk during gameday. I love KU sports, but let me down the sidewalk!

Tattoos or piercings: Nose and ear piercings, and three tattoos, including a sailor-style “Mom” tattoo on my right forearm Whom do people say you look like? Every once in awhile, I hear Emma Watson, especially when my hair was long.

What type of music do like? I really like pop music like power pop and electronic.

Lately, I’ve been in a kind of a Beyoncé/Destiny’s Child kind of throwback. But I also love rap and hip-hop.

Greg Lang Age: 31 Relationship status: I have a girlfriend.

Hometown: Indianapolis Time in Lawrence: I went to school here so I’m just back visiting.

Occupation: I’m a consultant for a software company.

Dream job: I’m doing what I love.

What were you doing when scouted? Hanging out with my brother-in-law and friend Cole.

Describe your style: I try to keep a modern look with an element of classy. I like a style that is a little bit more well-crafted.

Fashion trends you love: Particularly when it comes to the modernization thing, we’ve seen sort of a slimming down of and a more tailored cut of traditional menswear.

I like that!

Fashion trends you hate: I can’t think of anything off the top of my head right now.

Fashion influences: Here and there. I just pick what I like; it just seeps in. I think pop culture kind of permeates but I don’t really look anywhere in particular for something.

What would you like to see more of in Lawrence? I feel that men’s fashion is too complacent. People can just try a little bit harder; a little bit more sculpting and a little bit more effort. (Not) “let’s just throw on a T-shirt” — maybe think about what you’re putting on.

Less of? It’s been awhile since I’ve been here so it’s hard to say but I’m sick of that mustache thing. It’s just ridiculous.

Whom do people say you look like? I don’t think anyone has said I look like anybody.

What type of music do you like? Blues, jazz and rock ‘n’ roll.

Tell us a secret: Soylent Green is made of people.

CLOTHING DETAILS: Shoes, thrift store in Indiana, $75; Levi jeans, $120; coat, $150, Jos. A. Banks; scarf, $30, TJMaxx; shirt, I’ve had it since I was 16 years old; Rayban sunglasses, Sunglass Hut.
