If you didnt go to www.YourDU. net, you missed this story posted Friday afternoon, just minutes after learning of the death of a prominent Junction City resident. Former Central National Bank of Junction City President Larry Paquette died Thursday night after suffering from recent health problems. Larry was very active in the community, Junction City Area Chamber of Commerce Activities Director Nikki Davies said. He was an Old Trooper. He was very, very active with the Military Affairs Council, I believe the United Way and a lot of civic boards. Military Affairs Council Director and retired Col. John Seitz said Paquette was a legitimate supporter of the community, Fort Riley soldiers and military families. Seitz said few people still devote as much time as Paquette did to supporting their communities. Were running out of those people, he said. Paquette retired from Central National Bank about a year ago.
Comprehensive Plan enters public input stage

city.beat@thedailyunion.net
Creating a comprehensive plan is a long and detailed process. When finished, the plan will be a guide for the Junction City and Geary County commissions as they develop policies with community priorities for land zoning, growth and development improvements in mind. Area stakeholders, Junction City officials, Geary County officials and several members of the public met Wednesday and Thursday in the basement of the municipal building to discuss the ongoing process of putting together the Junction City-Geary County Comprehensive Plan. The meetings were a workshop
for residents to share their opinions and ideas on what the plan should include. On Friday, Junction City-Geary County Planning and Zoning Director David Yearout said the workshop sessions went very well and had good turnouts. It achieved what it was intended to do, which was to give the opportunity for the larger community to not only see what is being discussed, but also to share their thoughts and comments on what they believe are issues (in community development), he said. One of the issues brought up was what the city should do about the many vacant lots and lots with unoccupied housing on Junction Citys west side, which Yearout said wasnt a surprise.
Other ideas that were shared included how Junction City can focus on creating more job opportunities and how more development is needed in specific areas. Those things were discussed, identified, included in what was processed and are clearly a part of the plan and will be included in what we do going forward, Yearout said. At Wednesdays session, people put their heads together and made their suggestions to RDG Planning and Design, the company coordinating the effort, for what theyd like to see included in the plan. During Thursdays session, RDG presented where they were in the plan design process and invited more feedback and direcPlease see Plan, 10A

Milford council member still upset over improper insurance benefits to employee

MILFORD Officials may have heard for the last time from former City Council member Jim Talley on the issue of a part-time city employee receiving health insurance benefits for which he didnt qualify. On Thursday, Talley spoke to current council members about city superintendent Randy Colp receiving about $12,000 in benefits from September 2012 to September 2013. Talley said hes grown tired of speaking about what he calls misappropriated funds only to receive what in his view are unsatisfying responses from Mayor Brad Roether and some council members. Im sure most of you are tired of listening, Talley said to the council. But Talley continB RAD ued with several quesR OEtHER tions. He asked Roether why steps werent taken to stop Colps benefits from being paid in February when the situation first was brought to light. I consulted the City Council (at the time), Roether said. They approve all the bills every month. Thats true, Talley said. We were stupid. Heck, it was right before our eyes and we all overlooked it. Roether declined to comment further on the issue following Thursdays meeting. Milford policy states only employees working more than 37.5 hours per week which is full-time status for a city employee qualify for insurance. Talley has said he should have followed up after the issue was addressed in February. But he figured it would have been addressed. Talley again mentioned Colps health insurance benefits at the City Councils May meeting. City Councilman Doug Kneisl Please see Milford, 10A

Library collecting warm items for needy

Library director Susan Moyer said the donated items will be distributed to families in Junction City and Geary County through schools and other organizations. I think theres a pretty significant need, she said. The tree, which has become an annual donation campaign, is an opportunity to give back to the community, library employee Sarah Jones said. Its a great opportunity for us to connect to the patrons we serve every day, she said. The tree will be up at least until the end of the year. Staff then work on distributing the donated items. Usually, within the first part of January, well gather up all the donations and sort them out, and then make those donations to certain entities, Moyer said. Grandview and Westwood elementary schools will receive some of those donations. Mostly people donate things for younger children and so thats kind of why weve had an emphasis on the grade schools, Moyer said. But if we do get some items donated for older kids or adults, then we could talk to some other entities about that, including maybe Open Door or New Directions. Many people donate homemade winter weather accessories. Well get a combination of purchased and homemade items, Moyer said. We had a patron last year who sat in the library several days a week and cro-

Moyer said shes hoping the donation campaign is as successful as it has been for the library in past years. I think it fits the spirit of the season, she said.

Milford In Brief: you should know

Too many work hours
MILFORD City Councilman Doug Kneisl would like the council to start enforcing its decision to limit city superintendent Randy Colp to 20 hours per week. On Thursday, Kneisl during the City Council meeting said he reviewed Colps recent time cards, which show he has worked four or five consecutive 30-hour weeks. Kneisl said Colp is not managing his time wisely. But Mayor Brad Roether said projects in recent weeks have forced Colp to work more than 20 hours per week. Roether said Colp has had to work on repairing water lines in town, including a problem at Milford Elementary School. A lot of that is, Doug, is all those water lines, he said. City Council member Dennis Cox, who also is director of the Geary County Public Works Department, said he realizes Colps duties require him to work differing hours from week to week. Being in the business, I know theres no way of making it perfectly static, he said. Kneisl said he understands some weeks require Colp to work more than 20 hours but he would like to see the city enforce the policies it puts in place. In August, the City Council decided to limit Colp to 20 hours per week as a part-time employee. Colp also signed the paperwork necessary to end his health insurance benefits, which he had been receiving for about a year even though he didnt qualify for the benefits. In September, the town hired Tim Himelick to work four hours per day as city clerk and another four hours per day to help Colp with his duties. consensus was not reached without some debate. City Councilman Doug Kneisl suggested either purchasing a small utility vehicle, but not a second truck. As big as this city is, I think one truck will suffice for the city, Kneisl said. However, other council members agreed a second truck would be needed to plow snow in the winter should its primary truck break down. The first day you cant push snow, youll have people standing in this room because of it, council member Dennis Bolte said. The citys current backup truck constantly is in bad shape, Mayor Brad Roether said. Roether said the city would look into prices for newer used trucks and decide whether to purchase a truck at the December City Council meeting. Well get a price, he said during the meeting. If we need to have a special meeting (to purchase) before that, we will.
Chapman In Brief: you should know

Lower flood insurance coming
Thanks to work of city employees, residents can now pay less for flood insurance. Chapman recently received an award for successful participation in the Community Rating System program. The National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) rewards communities for managing their floodplains. As a result, residents are eligible to receive a discount on flood insurance. Steve Samuelson, NFIP specialist for the states Division of Water Resources, made a presentation recently to the Chapman City Council. He said Chapman residents will receive a 5 percent discount on insurance for floods. Everybody is going to save money in town because your city staff took on some extra work, Samuelson about managing the flood plain. Your city staff really made this possible for your citizens. Samuelson said that was made possible by reaching out to citizens and making information available. Officials also took measures to make sure the city was safer. The next level or accomplishment for management could result in a 10 percent discount.
Slowdown on Marshall Street

For safety reasons, City Council members approved an ordinance to decrease the speed limit on a portion of Marshall Street. The speed limit on the street, between Kimberly Ln. and Irish Dr. will be set at 30 mph. Its currently set at 45. City Councilman Dean Hansen said he heard complaints about the change and believes two seconds is not going to make a difference. I think its going to be a win-win situation, Hansen about keeping residents and children safe. With new development coming in that area, City Councilwoman Luan Sparks believes it makes sense as well. With the grocery store and the bank opening, I think its the safest option, Hansen said.
Improving wastewater facility

The Council approved a $16,700 bid from BG Consultants to examine the possibilities of upgrading the current wastewater treatment facility. In the future, officials will present plans for a Phase I plan and alternatives they may have over a 20-year time period. Through the plan, city officials can budget for short- or long-term investments required for the plant. Currently, one of the major issues at the plant is sludge.

Rosenthal, AP reporter, dies at 86

By The Associated Press
WASHINGTON Harry F. Rosenthal, an Associated Press writer who covered Americas golden age of space exploration, presidents back to Harry Truman and whatever caught his impish eye in the stuffy halls of power, has died. He was 86. He died Thursday at home in Kansas City, Mo., his daughter, Lesli Mulligan, said. From the start, Rosenthal was more than a toptier wire service newsman, fast and accurate. He was a wordsmith. He sweated the details, then turned those details into irresistible prose. In the old days when newsrooms still reeked of cigarettes, he would smoke and pace and fret while pondering just how he wanted to tell a story. Writing bugs me, he said, but its the only way I like to make a living. Curiosity, Rosenthal believed, was the essence of good reporting. My own approach to an interview is the same one I had at 16 when I went to my first burlesque show, he said. I had an idea of what to expect but I wanted to see for myself. Rosenthal strolled with Truman in Independence, Mo., as the retired president reflected on his decision to drop the atomic bomb on Japan at the end of World War II. He covered Dwight Eisenhower back home in Kansas, Richard Nixon in his downfall and death, and presidents through to Bill Clinton before he retired from the AP in 1997. He said then he wished he could write the human story of five more decades. He had a nose for the kind of story people wanted to read. We call them Hey, Martha stories, Rosenthal said. Which is, the guy sitting at the breakfast table and saying, Hey,

Martha, did you see this? You want a story with impact. There were plenty of those in a career spanning a half-century associated with the AP, first as a stringer, then for more than 40 years a staff member, then a columnist in his retirement. He wrote about the My Lai massacre prosecution of Lt. William Calley, the trials of assassin Sirhan Sirhan and would-be assassin John Hinckley. He covered civil rights marches, political campaigns and conventions, and the Watergate scandal that destroyed Nixons presidency.

France launched a military intervention in January to drive them out, but Tuareg separatists have maintained a strong presence in the city. On Nov. 2, two journalists from Radio France Internationale were killed while reporting in Kidal.
CENTENNIAL, Colo. A suburban Denver student shot two other students at a high school Friday before he apparently killed himself, authorities said. Arapahoe County Sheriff Grayson Robinson said the shooter entered Arapahoe High School in Centennial armed with a shotgun and looking for a teacher he identified by name. The teacher immediately left the school when he learned the student was looking for him, Robinson said. The shooter then shot two students, one of whom is in serious condition at a hospital. The other is also hospitalized, with a minor gunshot wound. It was initially believed the student in serious condition confronted the shooter, but Robinson now says that wasnt clear. Robinson said the student is believed to have acted alone. Authorities also found a possible Molotov cocktail at the scene and are examining the device. The school is about 8 miles east of Columbine High School in Littleton, where two teenage shooters killed 12 classmates and a teacher before killing themselves in 1999. The shooting also came a day before the first anniversary of the school massacre in Newtown, where a gunman killed 20 children and

six adults at Sandy Hook Elementary School. Tracy Monroe, who had step-siblings who attended Columbine, was standing outside the high school looking at her phone, reading text messages from her 15-yearold daughter inside. Monroe said she got the first text from her daughter, sophomore Jade Stanton, at 12:41 p.m. The text read, theres sirens. Its real. I love you A few minutes later, Jade texted shots were fired in our school. Monroe rushed to the school and was relieved when Jade texted that a police officer entered her classroom and that she was safe. Monroe was family friends with a teacher killed in the Columbine shooting, Dave Carpenter. We didnt think it could happen in Colorado then, either, Monroe said. Police were outside the school, and students were seen walking toward the schools running track with their hands in the air. Television footage showed students being patted down. More than 2,100 students attend Arapahoe High School where nine out of 10 graduates go on to college, according to the Littleton Public Schools website. that Malian soldiers did shoot, that is absolutely unacceptable, Ladsous said. Residents of the troubled northern city of Kidal have said soldiers fired on a demonstration at the local airfield Nov. 28. The demonstrators had gathered to protest the arrival of Prime Minister Oumar Tatam Ly on an official visit. The residents said five people were hurt. Ladsous said U.N. police and French troops had ordered the crowd to disperse. A Malian army commander last month disputed residents accounts of the shooting. We began to shoot in the air to clear the protesters, and then we returned to camp, Mamary Camara said. The women who were injured were certainly injured by the protesters, not by us.

Group wants attacks on journalists to be war crime

UNITED NATIONS The global group Reporters Without Borders is proposing that attacks on journalists be considered war crimes by the International Criminal Court. The U.N. Security Council held informal talks Friday on the protection of journalists amid alarm at the more than 50 killed so far this year. An estimated 90 percent of those deaths go unpunished. France, which holds the presidency of the council this month, is especially concerned after the killings of two Radio France Internationale journalists last month in northern Mali. The director of Reporters Without Borders, Christophe Deloire, called the statistics on killings sinister and warned that impu-
UN investigates shooting on protesters in Mali

UNITED NATIONS The U.N. peacekeeping chief said Friday his department is investigating what appears to be the shooting of protesters by Malian soldiers. One of the three people wounded in the shooting died over the weekend, Herve Ladsous told reporters. If proven beyond a doubt
nity amounts to encouragement for more attacks. Deloire said 88 journalists were killed in connection with their work last year a record since the organization started keeping count in 1995. The British ambassador to the U.N., Mark Lyall Grant, told the chamber, This is not just an issue for media, its an issue for all of us. The proposal to have deliberate attacks on journalists defined as war crimes was one of the most striking brought up Friday especially with the prosecutor of the ICC, Fatou Bensouda, as one of the speakers. Deloire spoke after her, however. One of the meetings hosts, the Guatemalan ambassador, said the war crimes idea has merit, especially with many attacks on journalists occurring in states where the judicial system has collapsed. Its very interesting, which we probably would support if it were put on the table, Gert Rosenthal said. Guatemala this year ranks 95th on Reporters Without Borders Press Freedom Index, four spots above Mali. France ranks 37th, the United Kingdom 29th and the United States 32nd. Participants in Fridays meeting asked what more the Security Council could do to not only protect journalists but condemn rights abuses against them.

From the Editors desk
uiet, unassuming, intelligent, pensive, observant, strong and giving. Those are just some of the descriptive words that come to mind upon hearing the name Larry Paquette. He also was a cancer survivor, a former local bank leader, a huge supporter of soldiers and Fort Riley and a champion of Geary Community Hospital among many other things. Larry, who had battling many health issues the past several months, died Thursday night. There is no doubt his death is a great loss to the Junction City area community. Larry was a regular attendee at Military Affairs Council breakfasts, which is where many of us saw him the most. With his wife Ligia by his side, the pair was welcoming to all. There was never a time I saw them that they didnt ask how things were going and making sure I was enjoying my time in Junction City. While not shocking due to his recent health problems, hearing of his passing yesterday morning was saddening. Upon hearing of the loss, I immediately remembered a golf fundraising event this past summer in L ISA which was held in his honor as a S EISER cancer survivor. It was a small event, but it was very special to meet most of the Paquette family that day. Ligia and Larry treated us all as though we were part of their family, too. As always, Larry was quiet and appeared humbled by the fact that the tournament was named for him. He was brief in his comments, thanking those in attendance, but also reminding people there are so many people who have battled cancer and continue to do so. His comments that day to me were 100 percent Larry quiet, unassuming, intelligent, pensive, observant, strong and giving. We here at The Daily Union thank Larry for all his efforts to make Junction City a better place. His contributions will not be forgotten.
Merry Christmas, 1913

Commentary The LeapPad Ultra is yet another high-tech gizmo that will hypnotize your child. Its a tablet that kids can write on, as well as summon apps, videos and games. If your child isnt an Internet zombie by now, he or she will be once the LeapPad gets inside the house. The Flutterbye Flying Fairy is marketed toward little girls and, according to the manufacturer, puts enchanting fairy flights directly in the hands of the child. Theres never been a more magical experience, says the toymaker. Obviously, theyve never been to a Metallica concert. And finally, the Big Hugs Elmo toy moves his arms to return hugs, plays songs, dances with your children and might even kick in toward their college education. Elmo is for both girls and boys and is capable of making more than 50 animated sounds. If that sounds like your Uncle Vinny, its a coincidence. The cost of these toys is substantial, and youd better have an engineering degree if something goes wrong. The high-tech dog is especially interesting, conjuring up all kinds of horror movie possibilities. Dont tell me the toys dont have chips in them that can be activated by some crazy scientist in Bavaria. No way this thing is getting inside my house. I already have a dog named Fiona who would attack the bogus dog on sight. For my money, I think toys are too complicated these days. I like the rocking horse and toy train scenario. But if I gave those things to my kids, their response would be somewhere between the Bay of Pigs and Woodstock a lot of angst and chaos. Luckily, Santa Claus has adapted, and his new high-tech sleigh and reindeer have him finishing his rounds in Guam long before dawn. But dont mention the Flying Fairy to old St. Nick. Hes not into competition.
ne hundred years ago in America, Christmas was a mighty different situation. Based on newspaper reports, MyHeritage.com recently put together a list of the most-askedfor gifts by children who lived back then. Here are the top five requests: Candy. Nuts. Rocking Horse. Doll. Mittens. Its a modest list, to say the least, but reflective of a time that was far less complicated than society is today. Now, kids rule in many homes. And Santa is under siege. This year, the top five kid-wants according to retailers are: Furby Boom. Teksta Robotic Puppy. LeapPad Ultra. Flutterbye Flying Fairy. Big Hugs Elmo. Lets begin with Furby. This is a robot toy that resembles an owl. The all new Furby has a mind of his own and can interact with the tykes. Lets hope Furby isnt a member of the Hells Angels. The Teksta puppy is allegedly just like a real dog except there is no bathroom component. Teksta will dance and respond to your hand gestures not including the middle finger. The puppy can even perform back flips that will amuse and amaze. I guess.

Gingrichs praise of Mandela rips open race issue

CYNTHIA TUCKER
Commentary economic record under his leadership gives the lie to that.) Similarly, Dick Cheney called Mandela a great man, but stubbornly defended his opposition to the sanctions that eventually led to Mandelas release. Its no surprise, then, that Gingrich sparked a firestorm when he released a statement citing Mandela as one of the greatest leaders of our lifetime. His Facebook fans unleashed a torrent of hateful comments in response, from chastising Gingrich for supposedly airbrushing Mandelas past Newt, I thought you of all people, a historian, would be true to who this guy really was to those more open in their racial antagonism: He hated America, Newt. Quit pandering to the blacks. Gingrich, to his credit, responded with a frank post to conservatives, asking them to consider what they would have done had they been in Mandelas place. But it hardly quelled the uproar. For far too long, Republicans have been comfortable playing to the worst instincts of their base, especially those steeped in racial antagonism and uncomfortable with the changes wrought by the civil rights movement. It will take years of hard work in the GOP vineyards to rip away all the kudzu of animus and suspicion toward black and brown citizens. Since Barry Goldwater ran a 1964 presidential campaign on a platform of states rights, the Republican Party has honed a strategy of appealing to disaffected whites stoking their resentments, fueling their fears, marshaling their paranoia. Every GOP presidential candidate since Goldwater has used that strategy because it reliably delivers certain voters to the polls. In more recent times, GOP leaders have struggled to try to find a way to broaden the partys appeal to a more diverse constituency while also continuing to win the hearts and minds of disaffected whites. But its a fence that cannot be straddled. Too many Republican voters refuse to acknowledge the toll of their countrys racist past. And too many fear a future wherein whites will no longer constitute a majority. Gingrich knows that all too well because he pandered to those fears in his 2012 campaign for the GOP presidential nomination. He labeled President Obama the food stamp president, an appellation designed to conjure up images of indolent black voters dependent on government aid. The appalling comments he drew after he praised Mandela were simply retributive justice. Like other GOP leaders, he has appealed to the worst instincts of many Republican voters when he needed to a strategy that will continue to haunt the party as it tries to plot a course to the future.
he Geary Community Hospital staff is deeply saddened by the death of our champion and friend Larry Paquette. Larry, more than any other trustee in the last 20 years, has had the biggest leadership role and influence on Geary Community Hospital. He served as a trustee for 16 years: 1993-2001 and 2002-2010. He was chairman of the board from 2003-2008, and again from 2009-2010, when he retired for the second time. While he was chairman, he influenced and supported all the major building projects, most of them under the leadership of CEO David Bradley (tenure 1995-2012), which included the $4.5 million ER and Outpatient Expansion in 1994; a new $2.5 million Martha K. Hoover Womens Health Center in 1996; the remodeling for the new Fred C. Bramlage Inpatient Rehab Unit and the new Senior Health Center in 1997; a surgery expansion in 1997; the purchase of 1310 W. Ash and the start-up of the Home Medical Equipment store; the new Medical Arts II in 2004; the center core remodeling and addition of the fourth floor to the Medical Arts II in 2006; and his proudest achievement the building of the new $34 million Western Addition in 2009. Larry brought a great deal of financial expertise to the table. He had an excellent understanding of hospital financials. Staff remembers him as always being open to new ideas, a kind and sympathetic man, and for attending every hospital event, open house, physician recruitment dinner and anything else asked of him. He will always be remembered as our champion. This is indeed a very sad day.

ewt Gingrich has been right about very few things during a long political career of hypocrisy, duplicity, narcissism and devotion to the no-holds-barred tactics of bombthrowing and hyper-partisanship. But ever alert to political trends, he was right about this much: He openly opposed South Africas apartheid government back in the 1980s, and he tried to persuade Ronald Reagan to support the stiff sanctions that finally helped to topple the hateful regime. Gingrich understood that the Republican Party would not be well served if it continued to be identified as a defender of South Africas pariah government. When Reagan vetoed legislation that imposed harsh economic penalties against the Pretoria regime, Gingrich helped to lead an effort to override the veto and impose sanctions. Still, Gingrich has been as guilty as any Republican of using the 21st-century version of the Southern strategy to appeal to the least progressive members of the GOP base. So he shouldnt be surprised that his recent praise of Nelson Mandela was met with harsh responses by so many of his fans on the right. The Republican Party has a huge race problem one that once again broke into the open in the aftermath of the extraordinary South Africans death. American conservatives still find it difficult to celebrate the life of a man who stood against white supremacy. While several Republican politicians were laudatory when reflecting on Mandelas life, other conservatives were ambivalent. Bill OReilly claimed that Mandela was a great man but also insisted he was a communist. (South Africas

Judge sends voter citizenship suit back

WICHITA A federal judge has sent back to federal elections officials a request by Kansas and Arizona to force modifications in a national voter registration form so the states can fully enforce proof-of-citizenship requirements. U.S. District Judge Eric Melgren on Friday sent the states lawsuit back to the U.S. Election Assistance Commission, with instructions that the commission has to have a final decision by Jan. 17. The states want the federal form to include instructions requiring Kansas and Arizona residents to provide a birth certificate, passport or other proof of U.S. citizenship when registering to vote. The Justice Department says such a change places an additional obstacle for eligible voters and would affect nationwide policy by setting a precedent.
News from around Kansas

Debra Wright ruled Thursday that Scott Weigel will stand trial for second-degree murder in the Sept. 9 shooting death of 21-year-old Keith Ancell of Lincoln. Weigel is being held on $750,000 bond. Weigel is the son of Lincoln County Sheriff Mike Weigel. Wright scheduled Scott Weigels trial for Jan. 6. Weigels lawyer, Roger Struble, didnt immediately return a call seeking comment. only responsible option for the Kansas economy and controlling federal spending. The bill passed 332-94. The 2nd District congresswoman said stop-work notices would have been issued without the additional federal funding, which would have effectively halted the project and hurt the local economy. Construction has already started on a central utility plant that will provide services to the lab. State officials have approved spending up to $305 million in bond proceeds as part of its cost to construct the lab, which is being built on the northern edge of the Kansas State campus in Manhattan. Construction on the main laboratory facility is expected to begin in 2014. The Department of Homeland Security has not published a date for certifying the lab and beginning operations, but Kansas State officials have hoped that it would be by 2018. Rep. Kevin Yoder, who represents Kansas 3rd District, also voted in favor of the budget proposal. He said it marked the first time since the 1980s that a budget compromise was reached in Congress, giving him cause to hope that Washington was intent on avoiding additional fiscal crisis. His other fellow Kansas congressmen, Reps. Tim Huelskamp and Mike Pompeo, voted against it. All four are Republicans. Huelskamp said the budget deal breaks promises that were made in Congress during the recent government sequester, or automatic cuts, which was designed to reduce government expenditures. He said by agreeing to the budget, Congress was putting off decisions to make significant budget reductions for the future, which he questioned would happen. So much for if you like your spending cut, you can keep your spending cut, the 1st District Republican said in statement. But no worries, after the 2022 election, a future Congress and president are certain to do what Washington refuses to do today. Pompeo, who represents the 4th District centered on Wichita, said he appreciated the work done by Rep. Paul Ryan to negotiate the budget. But he said not enough was done to reduce increases in mandatory programs, negating much of the cuts previously enacted. shortfalls in the Kansas court system. The 72-page report was released Friday. It recommends that the judicial branch consider delaying the filling of personnel vacancies, eliminating some court services employees and furloughing staff to save resources. Nuss asked a 10-member panel led by Appeals Judge Karen Arnold-Burger to find ways to close a projected $8.25 million shortfall in the judicial budget for the fiscal year that begins July 1, 2014. Legislators and Republican Gov. Sam Brownback have promised to find necessary revenues to prevent closing courthouses and furloughing staff. Arnold-Burger said the recommendations were made to minimize the impact on residents. implemented the requirements, with more growth planned. A 2009 law, the Renewable Portfolio Standard, requires the states major utilities to get 15 percent of their power from wind or other renewable sources by 2016 and 20 percent by 2020. The law nearly was repealed in the last legislative session, falling a few votes short in the state House of Representatives, The Wichita Eagle reported. Since the law was enacted in 2009, wind energy capacity in Kansas has jumped from about 1,000 megawatts to 2,700 megawatts in 2013, with other projects in the planning stages. Rep. Dennis Hedke, R-Wichita, chairman of the House Energy and Environment Committee, opposes the requirements. He said all energy sources should be on the same level and the top priority should be providing the lowest cost for consumers. People are certainly feeling the pinch and the ones hurting the most are those on fixed income, he said. Kansas Corporation Commission documents show the six major utilities in Kansas subject to the law Westar, Kansas City Power & Light, Empire District Electric, Kansas Electric Power Coop, Midwest Energy and Sunflower Electric Power Utilities are on track to meet the 2016 goal.

Troop 41 Boy Scouts participate in exercise
Childrens Christmas tree
Boy Scouts from Troop 41, recently participated as victims in a recent emergency readiness exercise held at Fort Riley. The scouts who volunteered to be victims, were made up using moulage kits by emergency responders to look like badly injured victims. Some had fake blood or broken bones sticking out of horrific wounds. The scouts provided the emergency responders with realistic training in providing first aid while the scouts had a great time moaning, and calling out for help as victims.

Fort Riley students from Barton graduate

Barton Community College graduated 125 students through its Fort Riley campus, many of whom were active duty military or soldiers immediate family. For these hard-working souls, the nature of their lifestyles made pursuing an education a significant challenge. Despite his many responsibilities and time commitments as a father of two, a husband and a soldier for 13 years, Staff Sergeant Daniel Lewandowski graduated Thursday afternoon with an Associate Degree in General Studies from Barton Community College. Balancing his role as a full time student in an already complex schedule was manageable in large part thanks to BARTonlines flexibility and the convenient class times at Bartons Fort Riley campus. The BARTonline classes offer so much more flexibility. So if I have a family event or one of the kids gets sick or I have to work an allnighter, I still have the time to keep up with my school work, he said. It helps keep everything running smoothly when I dont have to make it to class every day and I can just log in when I have time, and get my work done. He said the main thing that worried him about going back to school, is that he had never taken it seriously before. He left high school with a 2.2 GPA. I was in delayed entry when I was a junior in high school, so I didnt care about GPA back then, he said. Getting back into school was an unknown and was kind of nerve-racking. I was scared. But, its easier to just jump into it and get it done. Otherwise Id sit there and say, I wish I had ... Daniel plans to pursue a bachelors degree and eventually a masters degree, both in psychology. His hope is to serve as a therapist to soldiers with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, anger management issues and other social or emotional problems. Ive been there, and I think I can help, he said. Brigadier General Christopher J. Ghika (UK), Deputy Commanding General of Readiness at the First Infantry Division and Fort Riley, addressed the group Thursday, with praise for what theyve accomplished. He said its a good time to pause and look at where they have been and where they are now, but the next step is more important. If you graduate, and then stop learning, you are uneducated, he said. Winston Churchill once said, The most important thing about education is appetite.

Were using people from Chapman, wherever possible, Thompson said. Im really impressed with their work. An official grand opening has not been set. I hate to keep giving projections because some of that, I just dont have control over to know when thats going to happen, Thompson said. Thompson gave a March time frame for the opening. First National Bank and ordinance as long as hes not caught at it by the council or the council wont challenge him, he said. I blame myself for not catching it sooner to point out the misappropriation and even more so not by following up as I should. Talley added he may be done questioning Roether and the council specifically on the funds dural questions. A U.S. magistrate ordered that he remain jailed at least until a hearing next Friday after prosecutors said he was a flight risk and a danger to the community. His wife and attorney declined comment after the hearing. His brother-in-law, David Reddig, described Loewen Trust and the Federal Home Loan Bank of Topeka recently awarded $25,000 to Thompson. According to previous reports, the 8,000 squarefoot-building is near the Kansas Race Museum and has a cost of more than $1 million, with owner equity at 50 percent. The plan is based on a 10-year agreement and a maximum of $600,000 in sales tax incentives. that paid for Colps insurance benefits. Im beating a dead horse here, he said. However, in an email sent to The Daily Union late Thursday, Talley stated he plans to consult the citys code on the duties of the mayor and council. He then will address the issue at next months City Council meeting. as a good guy. He said Loewen helped him pay off the debt on his truck and took care of his home and chickens after an eye injury kept him from working. He is a hard worker and all that stuff, Reddig said. But he said Loewen kept details of his life away from his relatives. The case

They were very happy with both the turnout and with the responses and participation of everyone, he said. The entire purpose behind the exercise and what was done was to reach out to the community and try to be a little more visible of what it is that weve got going on and, to that end, I think we achieved what we were after. RDG began working with the city and county on the plan this summer. Yearout said the process should be completed in about a year. This is one part of a long process, he said. appears to be similar to a string of investigations conducted by the FBI since the Sept. 11, 2001, attack. The FBI sting operations have prompted controversy over whether the law enforcement tactics involved entrapment of suspects and intruded on civil liberties.

CHAPMAN Hang in there and stay hungry, Doug Thompson said after discussing his new grocery store. Well get it sooner or later. Thompson, the stores developer, provided a brief update on the new facility, which will probably save residents trips from leaving town to fill up their refrigerators. So far, all of the heating

I dont want to tell you their name yet because the lease has not been signed, Thompson told the Chapman City Council and audience Wednesday night. But he revealed that the Chapman store would be their 12th operation in small towns across Kansas didnt qualify for the benefits because of his parttime status.

Wide receiver Chad Hall and defensive tackle Jerrell Powe are probably getting used to signing and getting released by the Kansas City Chiefs. Hall was signed by the Chiefs again on Friday after recently being let go. He was claimed off waivers from San Francisco on Sept. 1 and played in eight games, catching one pass for nine yards, before he was released. Powe, the Chiefs sixth-round pick in the 2011 draft, was released to make room for Hall. Powe also was released before the start of this season, and then rejoined the team on Dec. 3. Hes played in only 10 games and made six tackles in roughly two seasons in the league.

Chiefs McCluster has infection in ankle

D AVE S KRETTA
Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. The Kansas City Chiefs will be missing their starting left tackle, top tight end, leading pass rusher and now potentially their most dangerous punt returner for Sundays game at Oakland. Dexter McCluster, who has already brought back two punts for touchdowns this season, was listed as questionable Friday for the Raiders game after a small cut on his ankle that he picked up in the mud and snow last week against Washington got infected. The Chiefs were already preparing to play without left tackle Branden Albert (hyperextended knee), tight end Anthony Fasano (concussion) and linebacker Justin Houston (dislocated elbow). Chiefs trainer Rick Burkholder said Friday that an MRI and X-rays on McClusters ankle showed no structural damage. But swabs taken at the infection site have not been analyzed, and Burkholder said the big question is Does he have MRSA? and we dont know that yet. MRSA is a potentially deadly strain of staph infection that is resistant to antibiotics and recently generated headlines when an infection hit the Tampa Bay Buccaneers locker room earlier this season. Offensive lineman Carl Nicks, kicker Lawrence Tynes and cornerback Johnthan Banks all were diagnosed with it. After initially treating his infection with antibiotics, Nicks developed a recurrence and needed surgery. Tynes was put on the non-football injury list, while Banks was not sidelined. He had a very minor procedure where they opened up the wound, cleaned it out, got him on IV antibiotics and he was released today, Burkholder said. He still has a chance to play on Sunday because it is basically a laceration that he had an infection in. Burkholder acknowledged, though, that we dont have all Please see McCluster, 3B

Kansas Wesleyan officials say a new athletic complex will be built in phases over several years, with the first phase scheduled to begin Jan. 9 with demolition of the universitys current stadium. Wesleyan president Matthew Thompson said Wednesday that funds raised so far will cover more than half of the estimated $7.5 million project, including all the first phase, which will include construction of turf football and soccer fields, a running track, lights for the fields and resurfacing tennis courts. Temporary seating and other amenities will be built for the 2014 football season. The first phase is expected to cost from $4 million to $5 million, Thompson said. The new stadium will be constructed during the second phase, which is scheduled to begin next November. The field house will be constructed during the third phase, The Salina Journal reported (http://bit. ly/1jWOpfa ). The executive committee of the universitys board of trustees recently approved the phased approach, based on timing and funding, Thompson said. Wesleyan has been raising funds for the project for about five years. It initially was conceived as a $12 million project, but was scaled back to $7.5 million when Thompson was named president in the spring. University officials dont want to borrow money to complete the project, Thompson said. We thought that wasnt the prudent thing to do, he said. We thought it was more responsible to get back to using the fields and then finish the fundraising and build the stadium next year. Wesleyan has until October 2014 to finish raising the funds needed to get a matching grant from the Mabee Foundation, which in early November pledged $750,000 if the university could raise $6.75 million by Oct. 8, 2014.

Royals, 2B Omar Infante reach tentative deal

Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. The Kansas City Royals might have found their answer at second base. The Royals and veteran Omar Infante reached a tentative agreement on a fouryear contract Friday night, a person familiar with the negotiations told The Associated Press. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to discuss the contract. The deal was first reported by Fox Sports. Royals general manager Dayton Moore has said throughout the offseason that upgrading at second base was a priority. Kansas City used six players at the position last season, though none

did enough to make the Royals feel comfortable moving forward. Infante, who turns 32 on Dec. 26, would stabilize second base in Kansas City for the first time in years. He hit .318 with 10 homers and 51 RBIs in 118 games for Detroit last season. Infante received substantial interest from the New York Yankees, who were seeking a replacement for Robinson Cano. But the Yankees were hesitant to give Infante more than three years, and the Royals decided to give the versatile infielder an extra year to help consummate the deal. The Royals signed left-hander Jason Vargas to a $32 million, four-year deal in November to help replace Ervin Santana, who is likely to sign elsewhere in free agency.

the cultures back. McCluster is the Chiefs thirdleading receiver with 46 catches for 438 yards and a touchdown, but his real value comes on special teams. He set a franchise record with 177 yards in punt returns last week against the Redskins, including a 74-yard return for a touchdown. He needs just 10 yards in punt returns to break Tamarick Vanovers franchise record of 640 yards set during the 1999 season. His 54 returns this season are also second-most in Chiefs history. Chiefs coach Andy Reid said that Chad Hall, who was signed on Friday after recently getting released, could return punts if McCluster is unable to play against Oakland. Defensive back Quintin Demps, who also returns kicks, could be another option.
Well, Dexter is not out, but Chad can do that, yes, Reid said. You have Chad and Quintin that can do it. Chad has been working it the whole time as has Quintin so well just see how that goes. Albert, who is the Chiefs franchise player, will miss his second straight game after hurting his left knee two weeks ago against Denver. Donald Stephenson will start at left tackle in his place. Fasano will also miss his second straight game after his head slammed into the turf against while trying to make a catch against the Broncos. Houston will be sidelined for the third straight week after he dislocated his right elbow in the first half against San Diego on Nov. 24. Theyre making progress, in particular the last two, Reid said of the three other injured starters. They worked out all week and did a pretty good job during the workouts, working with the scout team, but theyre not quite ready yet.

part that I liked, Junction City coach Nate Parks said on his radio spot following the game. The second and third quarter is what hurt us. Sophomore Kealee Rains sank a big three-point shot as the third period wound down before knocking down a pair of free throws to bring the deficit to 48-37 early in the fourth. Rains finished the game with 10 points. Sophomore AKia Fain then went to work. She scored nine of her 10 points in the fourth quarter after deferring for most of the game. Were all trying to establish our roles and shes trying to learn that shes one of the leaders on the team,

Parks said. So before the fourth quarter she might have to start looking to shoot first and pass second. The scoring drought from Fain early in the game came as a surprise as she scored 21 in the Blue Jays previous outing. Junction City opened the game on a 6-2 run fueled by the of strong play by senior Kori Kamm. She led the Blue Jays with 17 points on the night. But Great Bend came back with an 8-2 run of its own to close the first quarter and never relinquished the lead. Meanwhile, foul trouble dogged Junction City for the second consecutive game. Four Blue Jays picked up at least four fouls by the end of the game. Parks said it was one of those things where you arent going to always receive the calls playing on the road. Were trying a defense where were being more aggressive and the girls havent had a lot of experience doing that, He said. Were trying just for now to play aggressive, just not with our hands. Senior Shadaja Gamble scored six and junior Cassidy Meadows added five points in the game. Parks said once his team gains more experience playing his aggressive defense, its offense will feed off of it. Junction City (1-1) travels to Dodge City today for its second game of the weekend. One of the things I told the girls to do is not let this loss carry over, Parks said.
Sporting KC acquires MF Zizzo from Timbers

Associated Press
KANSAS CITY MLS Cup champion Sporting Kansas City acquired midfielder Sal Zizzo from the Portland Timbers for allocation money as it began to retool its roster on Friday. Zizzo scored two goals and had eight assists while playing one year for Chivas USA and the last three seasons for Portland. Hes also spent time with Hannover 96 in Germanys Bundesliga. A former standout at UCLA, Zizzo played for the U.S. mens national team against Sweden in August 2007. Hes also represented the United States on several junior national teams, and started all five of the U.S. matches at the 2007 U-20 World Cup in Canada.
BLUE JAYS
Citys offense found its rhythm and multiple players joined in the scoring. Senior Jonathan Wilson made a few defensive steals to open up fastbreak points, dropping 10 of his own on the night. Nine different Blue Jays scored in the contest. What we do offensively is we design it so our guys are taking the right shots, Battle said.

ROYALS
Infante push the notoriously frugal Royals beyond $90 million in payroll for next season a club record, assuming they dont make any moves to trim salary. Moore has said he expects payroll to be about the same as last season, which was roughly $82 million. But hes also said the Royals can be flexible if the right opportunity arises. Infante played all of his games at second base for
Detroit last season, but the former All-Star also has logged significant time at shortstop and third base while playing a bit in the outfield. Hell play the majority of his time at second base in Kansas City, where Emilio Bonifacio, Jamey Carroll, Chris Getz, Johnny Giavotella, Elliot Johnson and Miguel Tejada each tried to fill in last season. They combined to hit .243 with just four home runs. The fallback plan for the Royals was to go into next season with Bonifacio as
their primary second baseman, but hell likely become a utilityman now. The Royals are certainly familiar with Infante from having watched him play for their AL Central rival Detroit. Infante came up with the Tigers in 2002, and then was traded to the Cubs and Braves before landing back in Detroit two years ago, when he helped the Tigers win an American League pennant. Infante is batting .279 with 74 homers and 421 RBIs over his 12-year career. Hes never played more than 149 games in a season,
and missed more than a month last year with an ankle injury that occurred when the Blue Jays Colby Rasmus slid aggressively into his leg.

People weigh in on sex in marriages
5B
Dennis the Menace
Marmaduke
Dear Annie: Frustrated in South Dakota was concerned about the dearth of sex in his marriage, saying his wife has no sex drive. You rightfully suggested she talk to her doctor to see whether there is something they could do to remedy the problem. However, when you write that intimacy is important, but it isnt everything, I think youve missed the point about sexless marriage: Its entirely possible to be in a committed relationship without sex, but its incredibly important to keep the intimacy alive in other ways. People sometimes identify the act of sex as the only validation of love and caring between a couple, but there are other love acts that have a bigger impact on a relationship, like hugging and touching and kissing. My husbands libido took a nosedive several years ago, and it was a rough period for me because I am 13 years younger and had just hit my sexual prime. It took some adjusting of mindset, but when I realized that the other good stuff wasnt going out the window, things suddenly werent as bad as I thought. I do miss the incredible intimacy that sex brings, but I also love the fact that I get sweet, sometimes passionate kisses. Then theres the romantic act of hand-holding (even in public!) and hugging. And that makes all the difference. So, Frustrated, find different ways to enjoy that intimacy with your wife. Learning Curve Dear Learning: We agree that there are many ways to show intimacy, but it requires the cooperation of both partners. Our readers had a lot to say on this subject. Read on for more: From New York: Perhaps Frustrated could suggest to his wife that oneway pleasure is a possible, if occasional, solution to their mismatched libidos. If you love someone, you can enjoy giving pleasure without expecting anything in return. Boston: My wife and I were experiencing the lack of desire for frequent intimacy until we went to a homeopathic practitioner and received supplements to her diet that corrected some hormone levels. Happily, one of the benefits was improved libido, and we are now happy, happy, happy. Florida: Frustrated complains that he has sex with his extremely attractive wife maybe once every two weeks.

I say: What are you complaining about? There are far too many of us on the opposite end of the spectrum who would gladly trade places with him. Im 45, shes 43 and still hot, but its been years since weve had sex. Ive tried everything except couples counseling (she wont go). Im in decent physical shape, have a well-paying job and do my share in taking care of the children and the house. However, all romance, intimacy, handholding, kissing and physical contact are initiated by me and are rebuffed too often for me to make further attempts. Apparently, watching 15 hours of television every week is more important to her than an hour of intimacy once a month. Texas: Agreed, intimacy isnt everything. However, I believe intimacy is the foundation of a marriage and should not be minimized. I feel his pain. My relationship with my wife of 30 years is very similar. My advice is: If this is a deal breaker, then divorce is the only real answer. Rejection from the wife you love and cherish is beyond painful. You can concentrate on the many other good qualities in your relationship, but the sad reality is, it can be empty and unfulfilling without intimacy. Intimacy starts at the kitchen table or maybe with a phone conversation. A connection must be made. Counting how many times in a month you have sex is not intimacy.

Horoscope
ARIES (March 21 April 19). Misery may love company, but it also will slowly devour it if given the chance. Stay away from miserable people, and if you feel low, be sure to hang around someone more upbeat. TAURUS (April 20 May 20). You cant always choose your neighbors, but you can get in the ballpark by choosing your neighborhood. Use this as a metaphoric guideline as you move into a new area of interest today. GEMINI (May 21 June 21). Some people enjoy talking about subjects they know little about. Humor them if you can. It may help to think of them as performance artists working for your casual acceptance, which means more than you know. CANCER (June 22 July 22). Is it still awkward for you to tell people what you do? Thats because youve been through so many incarnations that youre always catching up to who you are now. LEO (July 23 Aug. 22). Its good that your friends arent all like you. A diverse team helps you get through life gracefully. Often the best solution to your problem comes from a lazy person who doesnt want to work so hard for results. VIRGO (Aug. 23 Sept. 22). Youll be meeting new people, some of whom youre not so sure about. Once you laugh honestly and truly laugh the relationship is on. You love a person who can make you laugh. LIBRA (Sept. 23 Oct. 23). Youre good at loving but are not always as good at letting yourself be loved. Instead of wasting time trying to figure out why this is, challenge yourself to accept someones adoration. SCORPIO (Oct. 24 Nov. 21). Find fast-talking company, and get into the mix. How will you keep your tongue sharp and your wit quick if you dont work it out every once in a while by sparring with a worthy partner? SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 Dec. 21). Shakespeare wrote that the course of true love never did run smooth, and yet if he could see your experience on this day, he might rethink the notion. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 Jan. 19). Youll be attuned to the energy that people put out, and youll understand much about them by quietly taking in what they project. But at the end of the day, youll make a deal in terms quite tangible. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 Feb. 18). There is some tricky business ahead of you. Ask your friends whether they think you need more input. Their answers will surprise you. PISCES (Feb. 19 March 20). Infatuation is blind, but not love. Love sees the whole array of good, bad, beautiful and ugly. It knows the spectrum and out of sheer grace chooses to focus on the good and beautiful.

Tis the Season

S ARAH M OPPIN
Museum Musings
Tis the Season words we all hear frequently during the Holidays. This too familiar phrase is applied to snow, shopping, the holiday spirit, the flu, and sometimes, as any police officer will tell you, crime. During the holidays the rate of theft and other crimes rises because the level of desperation people feel increases with the pressure to buy, buy, buy. Littered across the papers from previous Christmases are articles on the crime that increases this time of year. While searching our news scrapbooks for interesting articles I came across several that just made me shake my head and sigh. On Dec. 14, 1959 a leather bag containing $600 to $700 was stolen from the Flame Club. Right below that is an article from Dec. 15, 1959. This one stated that someone broke into the pool hall and pried open the back of the music box then the coin box within stealing all the quarters. Next to those is an article also from the 15th about four teens who stole ten cases of Ice Cream Bars, something I know we all want in December. These same youths admitted to stealing a blinker light owned by the state highway commission, and admitted to two separate thefts of beer. After being thoroughly depressed by these articles I turned the page only to discover more articles of the crimes committed during the 1959 holiday season. After reading about multiple fires, not all crimes but still equally depressing, I came across an encouraging story.
Toys which Junction City firemen have repaired and repainted were being distributed by the Salvation Army to the parents of children who will receive them as Christmas gifts. Capt. Carl Amick, Salvation Army officer, said approximately 250 children will receive gifts because of the generous response of the community and the efforts of the city firemens services. At the left is Heath Howery, assistant chief, and Delbert Johnson, chairman of the Salvation Army Advisory board is at the right.
Couched at the bottom of the page amidst the stories of burglary, fires, arrests, and stolen hubcaps was the article that caught my attention. Wallet is Returned, is the simple, small headline of this article. It seems on Dec. 21 a woman shopping downtown for Christmas lost her wallet. According to the article, the wallet contained $19 and some papers. While this may not seem like a major loss to some of us now, $19 bought a lot more in 1959 and the woman was distressed to discover it missing. Luckily for the owner, the wallet was quickly recovered. It seems that Leslie Chaves discovered the wallet while shopping downtown, and being an honest young man of seven he gave it to his mother who turned it in. The police returned the wallet to its owner that afternoon. The paper commented on this charity stating, Its the Christmas season and its appropriate that ones faith in his fellow man should be restored. After reading only one charitable article in two pages for Dec. 1959 I was starting to feel like maybe kindness is appropriate but rarely shown. I turned the page again and instead of depressing articles about fires and robberies was a large, front page picture about the Salvation Army Christmas toy drive. The photo shows a row of bicycles restored and painted by the firemen of Junction City with four men in the background behind a table piled with toys. This is what Tis the season should refer to. For years now the Salvation Army and other community groups have collected toys for the needy families in Geary County and beyond. This picture is repeated over the next several years as the generosity of people and the fire department was documented. Back then it wasnt only new toys that were collected; toys and bikes that had already had one child love and use them were repaired and painted by the fire department and made new for another child to cherish. This tradition continues today in Geary County. While the toys are usually brand new the sentiment hasnt changed. This is the time of year, the season, when people give generously to others by providing toys and food for those that cannot supply it themselves. So the lesson from going through the scrapbooks is that while crime may rise this time of year it is thankfully balanced out by the good deeds people do for each other. Note: dont forget you can accomplish your good deed this year by donating a toy for the Annual Toy Run. There are drop offs for these toys at the Geary County Historical Society and City Cycle Sales.

DC readies another weekly series for 2014
Kevin Spacey as U.S. Congressman Frank Underwood in a scene from the Netflix original series, House of Cards.

Netflix basks in six big nominations

B Y D AVId B AUdER
AP Television Writer
NEW YORK Netflix, which didnt exist as an original television programming source until last year, snagged six Golden Globe nominations on Thursday more than stalwarts ABC, CBS and NBC. HBO led all TV networks with nine nominations. Starz and Showtime joined Netflix with six each while CBS and NBC each had five and ABC had four. Netflixs political series House of Cards earned a nomination for best TV drama, while Kevin Spacey and Robin Wright were nominated for their acting in the series. With the release of its inaugural season in February, House of Cards represented Netflixs first major foray into TV programming. It also earned an Emmy nomination earlier this year, but Netflix is still searching for its first award. Another Netflix series, Orange is the New Black, earned Taylor Schilling a nomination for best drama actress. Finally, Jason Bateman earned a comedy nomina-

tion for the Netflix remake of Arrested Development. (The first Netflix original series, Lilyhammer, debuted in 2012.) Starting with HBO a decade ago and continuing with AMC and now non-network programming services, the industry is learning that reputations can be built quickly on the basis of one or two strong shows, said David Bianculli, a former TV critic and professor of television at New Jerseys Rowan University. Everyone thinks they can get in the game now, Bianculli said. Everyone thinks they can win the World Series of Poker. The true measure for Netflix will be if they can sustain the initial success with additional programs and also if they can show what kind of impact their shows have had beyond critics; you cant find out how many people watched House of Cards like you can know how many people see Scandal each week, for example, he said. The Golden Globes set up a potential victory lap for the well-regarded final season of Breaking Bad, which was nominated for best drama series and earned Bryan Cranston a nod for best actor.

Nearly three years after its debut, DC Comics is pushing its New 52 five years into the future with writers Jeff Lemire, Keith Giffen, Brian Azzarello and Dan Jurgens to examine how heroes change with the passing of time and technology. The weekly title, The New 52: Futures End, debuts on Free Comic Book Day in May with a free zero issue, with the first issue of series hitting shelves and digital storefronts later that month. It is the second such weekly book for DC in 2014. The other, Batman: Eternal, launches in the spring as DC celebrates Batmans 75th anniversary. Just look at the talent roster thats been gathered. 3x5.5 8/13/02 4:41 PM Page 1 How could you not want to be a part of that? asked Giffen, who did layouts for DCs weekly comic series 52 in 2006.

Hints about the series have been dropped by DC in recent weeks, with images of Batman Beyond online as well as a mention in the DC All Access web series that saw a pair of logo designs dubbed Five Years Later. Lemire calls the new weekly series an exploration of DCs past, present and its future. Really, what were trying to do with this book is to explore the nature of what a hero is and were doing that, obviously by playing with the future of the New 52 timeline, he said. Past present and future all colliding in this story line. That means exploring the past with a character like Frankenstein, the present with Firestorm and the future with Batman Beyond who is, Lemire said, making what is his first incontinuity appearance. Hell become part of the New 52. Those three, however, are not the only characters who
will have a place in the series. Thats definitely one of our mandates, too, Lemire said. To create new characters and new concepts that will hopefully have a life beyond the series. Artists on the series include Ethan Van Sciver, drawing the zero issue, along with Jesus Merino, Aaron Lopresti and Jurgens, among others who will be added as the series goes from one issue to the next, every week. The writers, all of whom have deep and historical ties to DC Entertainment and its roster of heroes and villains, have been working to craft a story that focuses on the past, present and future that will have implications across the DC universe, says Lemire, calling it a high concept work. The cast is quite large, he said. They are three of many that are getting a significant amount of time in the series.

If you want to participate in the Winter Reading program in person, you simply need to come to the main desk at the library and fill out a registration chart.

Whether about gender, religion, race, ethnicity, or sexual orientation, prejudice still exists in the United States, and as long as

What will NBC do for a Sound of Music encore?

By The Associated Press
NEW YORK NBCs halls are alive with the sound of sequels. After the triumph of last weeks The Sound of Music Live! NBC understandably is now planning more live musicals. This is welcome news for anyone who likes seeing a network get off the beaten path. Few observers have failed to cheer NBC for raw ambition in presenting a live musical more than a half-century after the previous one aired. Attaboys even came from the loudest critics of the broadcast and its leading lady, Carrie Underwood, who played Maria. I think we can do this again and again and again, NBC Entertainment Chairman Robert Greenblatt told The New York Times this week, while allowing, There may be a little bit of a phenomenon to the first one of these. Who knows what happens Year 2, 3 or 4? Who indeed? Can the interest, excitement and nearly 19 million viewers scored by The Sound of Music Live! be matched a year from now by another such TV event? Or was Music a one-note wonder? The answer might lie in determining why so many

viewers tuned in. Was it Carrie Underwood who served as the big draw? Was the main attraction The Sound of Music itself, a Rodgers and Hammerstein classic that, largely thanks to its 1965 film version, is one of the most recognized and popular family entertainments in the world? Or did the audience simply rally to the anything-could-happen unpredictability of live TV, something no viewer had experienced with a musical since Eisenhower was president? Odds are, all three reasons help explain why The Sound of Music Live! made such a splash. But a year from now, can NBCs follow-up strike a similar chord? What manner of star could equal Underwoods drawing power? And, maybe most important of all, is there any other musical that could grab the attention The Sound of Music automatically claims? Although NBC isnt saying which musicals may be under consideration, its easy enough to play a guessing game. Maybe Peter Pan or The Music Man (though both have been revived as filmed TV productions). Perhaps mega-star Hugh

Jackman could reprise his triumphant performance in a TV revival of Rodgers and Hammersteins Oklahoma! (Except his 1998 Royal National Theatre appearance was filmed and has previously aired.) What about Mame with Cher? Bette Midler in Hello Dolly? Reba McEntire in The Unsinkable Molly Brown? But do any of these projects come close to The Sound of Music Live! and its provocative appeal, as it dared to reimagine and, in the minds of some fans, tamper with the film version held sacred by so many? In short, is there another filmed musical everyone has seen and has such deep feelings for? Of course. Its time for NBCs star-studded staging of The Wizard of Oz Live! Sign Lea Michele of Glee to play Dorothy. Meryl Streep as the Good Witch. Anne Hathaway as the Wicked Witch. Tina Fey as the Wizard. Neil Patrick Harris as the Scarecrow. Alan Cumming as the Tin Man.

The light of christmas

O
By Clint Decker
ne of my highlights each Christmas is putting up the tree and trimming it out with lights and decorations. We start at the bottom and wind our way upwards finishing it off with the angel at the top. Then the drum rolls for the big test plugging it in. When it all works and the tree lights up, it is a beautiful sight. Often I will sit in the living room with just the tree lights on gazing at their beauty. The tradition of Christmas lights goes back hundreds of years. Have you ever heard of the word, Weihnachtspyramide? I cannot pronounce it, but it is the German word for Christmas Pyramid. In the late Middle Ages the people in the Erzgebirge (Ore Mountains) of Germany set up a wooden pyramid in their homes at Christmas time. It was decorated with many things then lit up with candles. As time moved on this pyramid merged with the evergreen tree to become the modern Christmas tree. Today the majority of people see Christmas lights as simple decoration absent the history of where the tradition came from. Why did these early Germans put candles on their pyramids? They did it to teach their families about the real meaning of Christmas to celebrate Jesus birth as
RELIGION
the light of the world. During the time of Jesus birth (4 to 8 B.C.), the world was dark, filled with much evil. Hope was scarce. Then in the midst of it all a great light came from the heavens where God sent His Only Son to earth. Then He hung a bright star in the sky above his birthplace announcing to the world that hope had come. Jesus once said of Himself, I have come into the world as light, so that whoever believes in me may not remain in darkness (John 12:46.) From Jesus birth, death, burial and resurrection His light never dimmed, shining brightly always. To some His light was praised as it guided them out of darkness into a living hope. To others His light was offensive exposing their evil deeds and corrupt ways. The greatest gifts you can give this Christmas season are two-fold.
5C
One, give yourself wholly to Jesus, letting His light dwell in you. Secondly, give yourself to others letting them see the light of Christ within you. This Christmas may the Light of the world be your hope for today.

Argentine slum honors Blue Virgin

By The Associated Press Brenda Duarte, 10, dressed in the likeness of Paraguays patroness, Our Lady of Caacupe, commonly called the Blue Virgin stands next to an altar outside her home as she wait for the arrival of a procession honoring the Blue Virgin in a slum of Buenos Aires, Argentina.
Associated Press BUENOS AIRES, Argentina Thousands of Paraguayan immigrants living along the polluted Riachuelo river in Argentinas capital celebrate their Blue Virgin every year with a grueling but joyful 10-hour procession that winds through every corner of their slum. Last year, their feast days Mass was led by none other than Buenos Aires Archbishop Jorge Mario Bergoglio, who has since become their beloved slum pope. That Time magazine named Pope Francis person of the year on Wednesday makes perfect sense to those who knew him as the church leader who saw to it that every major slum in the city had a working parish. For us slum-dwellers, its a point of pride that Francis has been here drinking mate (an herbal tea shared communally by South Americans) and spending lots of time with the poorest people, and that hes now recognized by the entire world. The church that he promotes is one that has really helped the poor and the marginalized, like me, said Miguel Sergio Leiva. I watched the whole procession when I was homeless and taking drugs, and now Im an active member of the church of Caacupe. The slums parish is named for Paraguays patroness, Our Lady of Caacupe, commonly called the Blue Virgin by the half-million Paraguayans who migrated to Argentina, many of whom live in ramshackle settlements known as misery villages in and around Buenos Aires. Padre Toto, one of many slum priests long supported by Francis, led thousands in this years procession on Sunday, walking all day long through suffocating heat and humidity. He blessed humble homes decorated with flags and balloons with water from a plastic jug, and hugged victims of violence. Many people put up altars to the virgin, and some displayed the image of Francis, the pope of peace.
Experts look at why A Christmas Carol still draws in modern times

MANHATTAN Written 170 years ago, Charles Dickens classic novella A Christmas Story still resonates with people today, according to two literature experts at Kansas State University. The latest example of Dickens enduring popularity will also be a nod to one of his most enduring works. A new film about Dickens life, The Invisible Woman, starring Ralph Fiennes, will be released on Christmas day. A Christmas Carol features the penny-pinching, Christmas-hating Ebenezer Scrooge and his dramatic transformation after a timely visit from the ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Yet to Come. Naomi Wood is a Kansas State University professor of English who specializes in childrens and Victorian literature and culture. She says that A Christmas Carol has remained popular because of its observations about the holiday and its central theme that a person can always change. A Christmas Carol is a compelling story about the Christmas holiday not as a religious observance, but as an aspect of the social contract: the time when those who have experience joy in sharing with those who have not, Wood said. Its also a story of transformation. Scrooges story offers the possibility that one can change for the better, become a better person and grow a bigger heart. Dan Hoyt is a Kansas State University assistant professor of English who teaches Dickens work. He said that A Christmas Carol also accurately captures sentiments that many people feel around the holidays, and gives a refreshing message amidst the commercialism that surrounds Christmas today. Much of Dickens work, including A Christmas Carol, has comic touches and is intensely sentimental. Just about everyone can appreciate those qualities during the holiday season, Hoyt said. It champions generosity and compassion, and when Christmas feels commercialized in so many ways, that message is powerful and comforting. Wood said that its compelling characters, as well as elements of the spooky and supernatural, add to the intrigue of A Christmas Carol. The Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Yet to Come are wonderful devices for thinking about our lives and what we want our legacy to be, Wood said. The story also features a sweet and pathetic kid in Tiny Tim, as well as both a happy and unhappy ending. The double ending helps emphasize that we have a choice in how we affect the lives of others for better or worse. A Christmas Carol has been adapted to many film versions, which Wood says would have pleased the author. Dickens was an avid theatergoer and was quite used to his novels being dramatized sometimes even before they were finished, she said. He enjoyed seeing his work come to life on the stage, and I think if he would have lived long enough, he would have loved movies. He adapted his own work for public performance, and was renowned for his effective readings. Dickens work still speaks to us on an emotional level, Hoyt said of the authors enduring popularity. Thats evident from the continual retellings and resurrections and re-imaginings of his fiction. A Christmas Carol, for example, has been turned into everything from a ballet to a Broadway musical. While many screen and stage versions of A Christmas Carol are quality adaptations of the novella, Wood said the one thing they sometimes leave out is the social criticism that is a prominent theme in the novella. The story is a feel-good parable about the joys of individual charity, but the book also demands its readers look at the vast economic system that produces want and ignorance, which Dickens personifies as societys hideous and starving children, she said. Dickens wanted his readers to care about the 99 percent, and even more for the 47 percent -- the people who arent served by the moneyed and privileged 1 percent. A Christmas Carol was Dickens first Christmas story. He made sure the book was published in time to sell for the holiday season in 1843, the year it was written. He would go on to write four more Christmasthemed novellas, as well as numerous shorter Christmas stories for magazines. Wood said Dickens was a big fan of the Christmas holiday and loved hosting parties with plenty of food, drinks, dancing and magic tricks. Dickens delighted in Christmas and having a big and roistering celebration with lots to eat and drink, she said. He would have a big party for both kids and adults, and danced wildly with as many guests as possible. He was an enthusiastic amateur magician and loved to amaze his guests in made-up characters, such as The Unparalleled Necromancer Rhia Rhama Roos.

road. Weve already seen winter driving conditions and theres sure to be more. There will be short trips and there will be long trips. There will be tired drivers, excited drivers, impatient drivers and unfortunately a few impaired drivers. Every time we get behind the wheel of a car we can not automatically assume that every driver and vehicle that we encounter is going to respond in a normal and socially acceptable manner. It is up to each and every one of us to be alert, be defensive and use some common sense, especially when it comes to the weather. Before your car pulls out e have a lot of people getting ready to put a lot of miles on the

Field & Garden of the driveway, you need to have it prepared for the trip, including adverse weather that you may well encounter. We always assume, when we start on a trip of any length, that we will get where we are headed, and return, without any weather or vehicle delays. But what happens if we do encounter bad weather. Do you have emergency supplies in the car? Do you have extra coats, hats, gloves and blankets in
case you get stranded along the way? Do you make sure that you always have at least one half tank of gas in your car? The last thing you want to do is to be stranded in cold weather with an empty gas tank. Make sure that you have some bottled water, energy bars, canned nuts and chocolate bars along for emergency rations. A flashlight, with extra batteries, as well as a whistle can be helpful for signaling would be rescuers. Get yourself an old fashioned three pound coffee can, a lighter or matches and some candles. A lit candle in a coffee can gives off enough heat to melt snow for emergency drinking water. It can also give off enough heat to keep frostbite away from
your fingers. The one thing that none of us can control, is the weather If really bad weather is approaching, dont start out on that trip unless it is emergency. Sometimes a 24 hour delay can mean the difference between a successful trip and a frustrating trip. When you are out on the road, and you should do it anytime, but especially at the holidays with high traffic volumes, drive with your headlights on. It doesnt matter what time of day it is, your headlights make you much more visible, even more so than driving lights. Additionally, most vehicles dont have tail lights lit when driving lights are on. In cloudy weather and cer-
tainly in snowy weather, you want people in front of you and behind you to see you. Make yourself visible. When you are driving on roads that arent clear and dry, please slow down. Just because you can get that SUV or front wheel drive vehicle up to the speed limit, doesnt mean you can safely stop it in an emergency. The bigger the vehicle, the further it takes to stop once the wheels start sliding. Anti-lock brakes may help, but itll still take you a lot further to stop. So you also want to increase following distance from other vehicles, and allow more time for crossing streets and roads. Never assume that road deicers are going to work 100% effectively. If the temperature is below
freezing and there is any kind of precipitation, the road surface is losing traction. And if it gets too bad, just stop and find a motel. Remember you need more time to stop, turns need to be made slower and you have to assume the other person is liable to be out of control. As long as we have winter weather, we will have bad driving conditions. As long as we have holidays, well have high traffic volume. Take your time, be extra patient, be defensive in your driving, and lets make sure were all here to celebrate the New Year.

Shopping tips
DEB ANdRES
Living Resourcefully Dont overstay everyone needs his or her own space and time for self. No family nearby? Call a local chamber of commerce or community service organization and volunteer to help serve a community dinner or give time to a food or toy drive. (In fact, there is a community Christmas Day Dinner being served by the Junction City Church of the Nazarene on Dec. 25. If you want to volunteer your time, donate money, or food to help with the Christmas Day Dinner, call their office at 762-4402 by Dec. 20 to let them know how you can help.) Focus on others, rather than yourself by inviting others to join in a potluck, watch a movie or sports event to share the day. You could spend some time with residents at the nursing home who, like you, are without their family around them during the holiday season. Calling family and friends also can help those who are alone stay connected. And, if you like and can treat yourself to an afternoon off, new book, video or craft project. After a challenging trip to go shopping, find a way to spend more quality time with your children. I love to cook and bake and my children always enjoy the chance to be in the kitchen with me. We often gift food to our friends and neighbors. Homemade baked goods or vegetable trays are some of our favorites to share. Some other ideas for destressing with your family could include coloring together or taking a walk together. Talk about the traditions in your family that have been passed down from year to year. Children mirror the emotions and tone their parents display as well as mimic what they see their parents and other influential adults in their lives do. Being aware of this can help each of us make an extra effort to make the holiday season a time of gratitude, not attitude and model what the song says peace on earth, good will toward men. For more ideas on activities you can do with your children that promote quality time, feel free to contact me at the Geary County Extension office (785) 2384161.
ast night I decided it was time to just tough it out and finish my Christmas shopping. With my list of family and friends, as yes, my budget in tow, I set out on my mission. The stores were buzzing with activity and many of the people I saw had their children with them. I am glad to report that many of them seemed happy and at ease, but there were several who were struggling to find the merriment in shopping with the family. I saw parents struggling to get their kids to put on coats, to leave items in the shopping cart or to give up possession of the toy clutched in their hand long enough to let the clerk scan the coded tag. Parents are also tired, financially stretched, grumpy about parking, all while dealing with the everyday challenges of balance work, family, and relationships. In the midst of all this shopping excitement, I could hear the end of the song playing overhead and peace on earth, good will toward men. The irony of that moment makes me smile yet today and reminds me of one of the many quotes I can remember from my own upbringing: You can be part of the problem, or part of the solution. With solutions in mind, I share with you an article I recently read written by Nancy B. Peterson, and Dr. Charlotte Shoup Olsen, both of whom are K-State Research and Extension colleagues. Few families will match the idyllic images captured in the holiday advertisements, but most can find joy during the holiday season. Everyone is encouraged to extend the thankfulness typically associate with Thanksgiving celebrations throughout the holiday season and into the new year. Feeling grateful for home, family, friends and life in general spills over into other activities and to others who sense your gratitude. Gratitude itself can have a calming influence. A little planning also can go a long way in relieving family stress holiday stresses. The following time and stress management tips are offered: Start early to plan family and other gatherings. Involve others, so everyone will be informed. Surprises can add stress unnecessarily. Be responsible. If the family is planning a potluck and you promised to bring the main dish, be on time, with enough food to serve everyone expected. Ask adult children what they would like to bring, rather than making arbitrary assignments. Leave disciplining others children to the childrens parents. Plan age-appropriate activities, such as soccer or touch football, table or board games. Keep the peace try not to bring up touchy topics.
