USACE: campsites should be for recreation


B Y C HASE JORDAN

c.jordan@thedailyunion.net
MILFORD RJ Harms understands the hardships and frustrations of campers having to vacate certain areas. But he believes the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers has to draw the line between recreation and residential living. The USACE is demanding the majority of sites must stay empty for the winter months (December, January and, February) on property owned by the corps. That stance is for the Kansas City District, which includes lakes in Kansas, Missouri, Iowa and Nebraska. Harms, the Operations Manager for Milford Lake, said one of the driving forces of the Midwestern policy was the abundance of sites in the area. We have close to a thousand campsites at Milford, he said. We had a lot of demand and saw a This is public need for folks who wanted to land and in bring their theory, its open camper out, for anyone to leave them and not have come out and to worry about use. going back and forth RJ HArMS every week- Operations Manager end. for Milford Lake But Harms said the USACE doesnt want people to take advantage of the program. USACE officials believe the sites should be used for recreational purposes and not for longterm residency. It really boils down to recreational camping use or residential use, Harms said. We dont want to operate an area with school buses picking up children. Harms understands soldiers and contractors would like to live on RV camping sites such as Acorns Resort, but the property is public land, not private property. If that person stays on that campsite for two or three years, they have exclusive use of that area and no one else can use it, Harms said. This is public land and in theory, its open for anyone to come out and use. Owners of private property outside of land owned by the USACE may operate however they wish, and those sites can allow long-term camping for several years. Properties such as Acorns Resort, Flagstop Resort and RV Park and Thunderbird Marina and Campground are Please see USACE, 8A

Ikes Place Bar and Grill vying to be new hot spot in Junction City
B Y T IM WEIDEMAN

city.beat@thedailyunion.net
When asked to recommend a good place to grab a bite and watch the big game, Junction City residents soon could be responding with I like Ikes. Ikes Place Bar and Grill, a new sports bar located at 416 Golden Belt Blvd., provided a first glimpse of what the eatery had to offer Monday evening during a grand opening. The restaurant, which takes its namesake from former United States President Dwight D. Eisenhower, is decorated with sports and historical memorabilia. Its no stretch at all to play up both the Eisenhower and sports themes, Ikes General Manager Kasey Hanney

said Monday afternoon. He was a sports enthusiast when he was younger, she said. Aside from other sports memorabilia, some of the photos on the restaurants walls are of Eisenhower playing sports. The Ikes brand expanded to Junction City after having been established in Abilene, the home of the restaurants other location and Eisenhowers hometown. Hanney said the Eisenhower Presidential Library and Museum in Abilene helped during the decorating process for the Junction City location. Restaurant designers generated ideas from the library to pay tribute to Eisenhowers military career and tap into the strong Fort Riley connection in the community, a press

release stated. Customers who make the trip west on Interstate 70 to visit the library and museum can present their ticket stubs for a special discount at either the Junction City or Abilene Ikes locations. Traffic from I-70 was a draw for the folks behind bringing Ikes to its location in Junction City. Hanney said shes hopeful people will drop in on their way from I-70. Ikes will be open 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. Sunday through Thursday and 11 a.m. to midnight Friday and Saturday. The menu includes burgers, steaks, pasta, seafood, vegetarian options and a wide variety of wings and appetizers. Tim Weideman The Daily Union Ikes also offers a full bar with Diners get their first tastes of Ikes Place Bar and Grill, 416 Golden wines, martinis, margaritas, and Belt Blvd., during the restaurants grand opening Monday evening.

Library shows patrons appreciation

1st Infantry Division Public Affairs


The Fort Riley Post Library honored its patrons with cake, hot chocolate and coffee during Patron Appreciation Day Jan. 11 at the library. In addition to refreshments, story time and craft making were among the activities at the event. We wanted to show our patrons that we really appreciate them coming in and participating in the librarys programs. Without them and our sponsors, we couldnt do what we do to support the military children, said Roger Hammond, clerk, Fort Riley Post Library, Directorate of Family and Morale, Welfare and Recreation. Hammond seemed to be a favorite among children who come to story time on a regular basis. During the event, he made sure to take time to talk to each child in attendance, serve them cake and hot chocolate and ask them about school. He is really the heart of this program, said Becky Basil, who also is a clerk at the library. All of the kids love him. He really runs everything for story time and activities for the kids. As Hammond read a book to children at the event, he stopped to ask questions about the story and seemed delighted to see the childrens hands fly into the air, ready to answer. She loves doing the class, and Mr. Roger, said Amber Loven, military spouse, of her 3-year-old daughter Kylas affection for story time at the library. I like having a place to bring my kids thats warm, safe, and its free, she added. I like the library, Kyla said. Reading the story is my favorite part. She wasnt the only child in attendance who loves story time. One parent talked about how much his children love coming to the library for the program as well.

Chefs from the 1st Infantry Division Culinary Arts Team participated in a live-cooking event Jan. 16 at Fort Rileys Culinary Arts Lab, cooking customized meals for and in front of senior leaders from around the division. Using fresh ingredients and spices, the soldiers presented leaders with a variety of pasta choices, including made-fromscratch gnocchi and penne pasta with spinach and pesto sauce. The meals were capped off with a specially prepared panna cotta, a creamy Italian dessert. The event served as training for the team as they prepare to face off against teams from across the armed forces in March at the 39th annual Military Culinary Arts Competitive Training Event at Fort Lee, Va. There, the chefs talents will be put to the test in a variety of culinary challenges.

USO hosts breakfast for family members of fallen


B Y JESSICA H EALEY

1st Infantry Division Public Affairs


Family members of five 1st Infantry Division fallen soldiers attended a breakfast the morning of Jan. 8 at USO Fort Riley before attending a memorial service for their loved ones. The breakfast was part of a program called Operation Warm Start. Op Warm Start is a collaboration between Fort Rileys Survivor Outreach Services and USO Fort Riley. This service is provided for each family of a fallen service member prior to the memorial service. It gives families who are sometimes separated or coming from

different locations an opportunity to gather in a place thats welcoming and has a lot of support, said Cheryl Erickson, director, Army Community Service. Fort Riley Garrison Commander Col. Andrew Cole spoke briefly during the breakfast. The Lady Troopers, a volunteer organization from Junction City, served and provided food for the families, alongside USO Fort Riley volunteers. The Lady Troopers organizations mission is to provide friendship, support and goodwill for military families at Fort Riley. Its our privilege to be here, said Betsy Young, special projects chair, Lady Troopers.

Its enough just knowing that maybe they will remember that somebody was there with a warm meal. Its those kinds of things that you just cant replace, Young said. In addition to providing breakfast to the families of fallen soldiers, USO Fort Riley also funds their lunch at a dining facility following the memorial service on post. For the USO, its our honor to serve these families, and on behalf of a grateful nation, to be able to help give something to these families before they face the challenge ahead of them, said Jill Iwen, director, USO Fort Riley. Normally the breakfast takes

place in Grimes Hall, where Survivor Outreach Services is located, and USO Fort Riley provides support at that location. The Jan. 9 breakfast took place at USO Fort Rileys facility on Custer Hill to accommodate the larger number of family members. We are here to show our appreciation and respect, to help support the families and let them know that this is their home away from home, Iwen said. Anything we can do to support the dependents is what we care about. We are absolutely grateful for the service of their loved one and the sacrifice they have made, and the sacrifice the family will continue to make.

Italian conductor Abbado dies at 80


By The Associated Press
ROME Claudio Abbado, a star in the great generation of Italian conductors revered for developing a rapport with members of the worlds leading orchestras while still allowing them their independence, died Monday. He was 80. Abbado died at home in Bologna after a long illness, said Raffaella Grimaudo, spokeswoman for the Bolo-

gna mayors office. Abbado made his debut in 1960 at La Scala in his home city of Milan and went on to be its music director for nearly 20 years. Among his many other positions were as music director of the Vienna State Opera, the Berlin Philarmonic and the London Symphony Orchestra and as principal guest conductor of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra.

Home inspectors deregulated in Kansas

Headlines from around Kansas


tor. They also were required to carry certain types of liability insurance and annually complete a minimum of 16 hours of continuing education. The five-member Kansas Home Inspection Registration Board was appointed by the governor and oversaw registrations and compliance with the law. Until the law passed, home inspectors in Kansas were not regulated, The Wichita Eagle reported. The law had a provision, though, that allowed it to expire five years after taking effect. That fifth year was 2013. The inspectors group drafted a bill last spring that would have cut the sunset provision from the law. That bill passed the Legislature, but was vetoed by Gov. Sam Brownback in April. Brownback said he saw scant evidence of large numbers of Kansas citizens being economically harmed by home inspectors. Were back into the wild, wild West of home inspection, Barnes said. Brownback also said he thought the home inspectors board lacked the resources and expertise to regulate home inspectors, and that the Kansas Attorney Generals Office was better equipped to investigate complaints from homeowners about unscrupulous home inspectors. Ed Robinson, an attorney who practices in real estate litigation, served on the board between 2009 and 2011. He thinks the organization boosted home inspectors credibility and gave some assurance to home buyers and sellers that the person inspecting their home had some level of competence. The board was a volunteer board, he said. We were getting reimbursed for mileage. ... We didnt have any full-time staff. All of the operating expenses of the board and the accounting firm came exclusively from the registration fees. There was no money appropriated. It was a self-sustaining entity. Robinson said potential buyers and sellers need to be aware that there is no longer oversight of home inspectors. It becomes even more important for potential homebuyers to make sure they get references ... find out if the home inspector has some level of competence, he said. external affairs Hugh Carter says hes eager to find out what Lawrence employers are looking for and offer the relevant training.

WICHITA A Kansas law that regulated home inspectors in the state has expired, raising concerns from two Wichita-area home inspectors who helped write the law. Theres always somebody who is trying to make a quick buck and lacks a moral compass, said Kerry Parham, president of the Kansas Association of Real Estate Inspectors and a home inspector for 36 years. We kept the bad guys out of the business and had a set of standards for guys to follow. Parham and Jeff Barnes, a Mulvane-based home inspector for 25 years, helped write the Kansas Home Inspectors Professional Competence and Financial Responsibility Act. The measure, which took effect in July 2009, required home inspectors in the state to abide by certain practices and standards, including having at least 80 hours of formal training as a home inspec-

Lawrence officials explore career technical center


LAWRENCE Lawrence business officials are looking for inspiration as they make plans for their portion of a career-training center. The Lawrence JournalWorld reports that the Lawrence Chamber of Commerce and the Lawrence school district are working together on the project. Last week, chamber representatives visited the Blue Valley school districts Center for Advanced Professional Studies in Overland Park to look for ideas. The school district is constructing a new building for high school students, funded with a $5.7 million portion of $92.5 million in bonds that voters approved in April. The chamber, meanwhile, will renovate an existing building for adult training. Chamber vice president of

Lawmaker meetings would be broadcast under bill


TOPEKA Audio and video of Kansas legislative committee sessions would be streamed live over the Internet under a bill introduced in the House. Republican State Rep. Stephanie Clayton, of Overland Park, said citizens need to have better access to their legislators and that her bill was a baby step in that process. She said the bill would help citizens stay current on matters that affect their lives and ensure legislators are paying attention, reports the Lawrence Journal-World. The bill, which has been referred to the House Appropriations Committee, also would require video broadcasts of House and Senate sessions. Audio of the sessions already is streamed on the Internet, but Clayton said

video is needed because just hearing the proceedings is often confusing. Clayton said all the committee rooms in the renovated Statehouse are wired to provide audio and video, so the state would only have to purchase cameras. Her bill requires one camera per committee room, but she didnt have a cost estimate for the proposal. She said she thought it could be done for $10,000. Most states provide live streaming of House and Senate proceedings, while states vary considerably on whether they broadcast committees, said Brenda Erickson, a senior research analyst with the National Conference of State Legislatures. Erickson said some committee rooms in old statehouses are too small for the equipment needed, while some legislators think having a camera in the room could intimidate people who come to testify. They dont want to disturb the process, she said. She said legislators also are wary that comments or video could be taken out of context and used against them in political races.

Another view Its not our Iraq anymore


The following editorial appeared in the Los Angeles Times on Friday, Jan. 17

ains by al-Qaida-allied groups in Iraq including in Fallouja, the site of a bloody U.S. offensive in 2004 understandably anger Americans who lost loved ones in a war of choice that was supposed to secure democracy in that country. But the continued violence in Iraq doesnt discredit the decision of the United States to withdraw troops, nor does it justify any new deployment. Even now, the United States has an interest in Iraqs future and seeks to influence events there. The Obama administration, with congressional support, has expedited the delivery of military equipment to the government of Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki to be used against the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria, the al-Qaida-affiliated group that seized large portions of Fallouja. Meanwhile, the administration appropriately has been urging Maliki, a Shiite Muslim who has alienated Iraqs Sunni Muslims and dealt harshly with dissidents, to engage in political dialogue and respect human rights. But the administration wisely has rejected calls for more direct involvement. The American people understandably have no appetite for military intervention in Iraq. Former Secretary of State Colin Powell was right when he said, in connection with the U.S.-led invasion of Iraq, that if you break it, you own it. The invasion did break Iraq in the sense of toppling an authoritarian regime without ensuring that it would be followed by a stable new order. Having unleashed an unexpected insurgency, the U.S. felt obliged to deal with it, at a cost of thousands of American lives. But the statute of limitations on that obligation has run out, and when U.S. forces left in 2011, Iraqis were happy to see them go. The experience of this country in Iraq remains deeply disillusioning and continues to provide fodder for political attacks. Republicans such as Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., insist glibly that President Obama is to blame for the current disorder because he didnt push Maliki harder to accept a small residual U.S. force after the withdrawal. Democrats insist that the blame belongs to President George W. Bush, whose naive attempt to further a freedom agenda in Iraq unleashed ethnic and religious rivalries that had been suppressed by Saddam Hussein. Both arguments ignore the fact that U.S. ownership of events has ended. In 2007, when he ordered a surge of U.S. forces, Bush said that victory in Iraq would take the form of a functioning democracy that polices its territory, upholds the rule of law, respects fundamental human liberties and answers to its people. Those remain noble goals, but if they remain elusive, it is not because of a lack of U.S. effort.

Wheres the Republican Party going? T


his may be the weekend when we get our first pretty solid feel for just which direction the Kansas Republican Party is headed: Conservative, or way, way conservative. The event is Republican Kansas Day, of course, in Wichita as the party continues to move its biggest annual convention around the states four congressional districts. The real test here: How U.S. Sen. Pat Roberts, who has been a GOP icon since the earth cooled enough to walk on, and Tea Party Republican Milton Wolf, of Leawood, who hopes to unseat Roberts in the Republican primary election, work the Republican activist crowd. Now, this could have been a simple pulse-taking, counting the number of Republican activists and these people are the management level Republicans who attend the state convention at each reception, watching their general demeanor, and making a comparison. But, Republicans of late dont make these things simple. Wolf remember, hes the radiologist who is a distant cousin of Democrat President Barack Obama will have a reception from 9 to 11 a.m. Saturday at the Hyatt Hotel where the convention is being held. Itll be one of

MARTIN HAWVER
Commentary seven of those conventional walkaround receptions with coffee, rolls, and maybe if we get lucky, a bloody Mary or two. Roberts, who has traditionally sponsored the after-the-Saturday-dinner Coffee and Cordials reception for those Republicans who spend the money for the conventions dinner gala will see a crowd that has thinned considerably, making a nose-count probably inaccurate. So, its going to be a weekend of watching Roberts and Wolf react with the several hundred Republicans who hang out together on the partys biggest weekend of the year. Now, there arent enough regular attendees of Republican Kansas Day to move the vote in a primary election. But those Kansas Day activists tend to be the GOP leaders in their communities, the people whom generally Republican voters see in the coffee shops and

grocery stores, and occasionally, the country clubs, who can move votes. After the weekend, well maybe have a feeling for whether Roberts, who tends like most Republicans to get more conservative, or at least more loudly conservative, in election years is as far to the right as Kansans are willing to go. Remember, chances are slim that either former Sens. Nancy Landon Kassebaum or Bob Dole could make it through a Republican primary election now. Yes, theres the start of a party-rending contest going on in Wichita this coming weekend ... which is probably a dab uncomfortable for many Republicans. And, its a chance for Democrats who pay close attention to find out whether the GOP is moving farther to the right than many Kansans might be comfortable with to dream of picking up some Republican votes.

Special to The Daily Union

To the Editor:

Letter to the Editor User fees not the answer

e have been down this road in the past. The claim has been made that one way to collect more revenue from the taxpayers in this cash-starved town is to raise user fees. This approach is touted to provide relief on a variety of financial burdens citizens are coping with while not raising taxes. This is nothing less than a bunch of horse hockey. A fee imposed is a taking just like a tax is a taking and is simply substituting one word for another with the results being similar in that more money will be involuntarily taken from us to feed the government gorilla. Instead of implementing any cost cutting measures we see government increasing funding for nonessential services, personnel costs rising and the ongoing quest for larger emergency fund growth. Citizens are facing reduced working hours, being laid off, stagnant wages, and the train wreck of Obamacare (a financial disaster that has every appearance of potentially crashing the countrys economy). Check the Help Wanted ads in the local paper. Slim pickings are the norm. On top of all this, we see food prices rising as well as costs for other items. These proposals will do more harm to a town that is notorious for high debt and high taxes. We cannot afford this stand and deliver mentality. If this is all the new city manager can bring to the table, we need to look for another administrator.

ear, anger, and resentment are always good political organizing tools in the short term. The problem with their use and overuse is eventually people get wise to the con game being employed. These days most people around werent alive in 1964, 50 years ago, when the Beatles first came to America among other significant events. But to the right-wingers of the day, a commonist takeover as they pronounced it was ripe. Barry Goldwater was running for President and he disavowed the support of some paper organization called Mothers for Moral America, which blamed Goldwaters opponent, President Lyndon B. Johnson, for designer Rudi Gernwichs invention of the topless bathing suit. Meanwhile in Europe and other places not overwhelmed by puritan sensibilities, women continued to go to beaches topless as they had for generations. Birth control pills were new and have since freed some four generations of women from having to bear children they did not need. As the forces against them, which seek to exercise power and control over women, continue to lose they grow even more shrill and irrelevant. The girls growing up in America today are among the smartest and fiercest. All but those most deeply

trapped recognize the inevitable truth that a woman without a man is like a fish without a bicycle. It was just under 50 years ago when Californias Governor Ronald Reagan signed the law which eliminated almost all the restrictions on abortion. Some years later Reagans reform went nationwide via federal court decisions. It was well. Cynical manipulators would have you believe that abortion did not exist before those decisions, but that was just one of many of their lies. Abortion has always existed and has occurred at the same rate throughout history with slight variations based on economic factors. After World War II Americas legal community busied itself with reforming our laws. Many states had practices better suited to colonial days and the Jim Crow South. Committees of the American Bar Association examined every aspect of our criminal law and procedures. Of particular interest were abortion restrictions which served no useful purpose. These laws had been created some 100 years previously, not to protect women and not out of any sensibility a fetus was a person, but to aid the newly emerging medical profession to drive their competitors, the midwives, out of business. That worked. But even then doctors were free to perform abortions they deemed medically necessary, with wide discretion.

Thus a married woman who already had children but didnt want more had no difficulty obtaining abortion, but the law was used as a hammer to enforce social conformity by ostracizing unmarried women who became pregnant. It was bad law and the ABA was right. Reagan saw that. The opposition was all but nonexistent. Opposition to legal abortion only developed after the largest states had acted, always couched in religious rhetoric. But those which brought the hypocrisy of those restrictive laws to a close had religious motives as well. Texas State Representative Sarah Weddington, a Methodist Pastors daughter, was lead counsel for one case argued before the Supreme Court. Her close associate on these matters was Ann Richards, later Governor, also Methodist, whose daughter Cecile Richards is now president of Planned Parenthood. Once the opposition gained power, Weddington was ostracized by her colleagues. Governor Mark White had appointed her as the states liaison with the federal government and the legislature defunded the position as a warning to other women to stay in their places. The generation of women coming up now has no use for that. The opposition overplayed their hand, and social change is continuing to occur despite their herculean efforts to stop it.

Selling java gives students business know-how

School in Cherokee is an extension of an existing student-operated shop, The Morning Sun in Pittsburg reports. Called the Spirit Shack, the shop carries school gear, iPad chargers, vending machine treats and other products. Senior Kelsey Dietz says students became interested in selling coffee after another school talked about their coffee shop program during a state conference. Southeast High School students toured other student-run coffee shops before opening theirs.

Students said the first few days of being in business were hectic, but much more successful than they would have imagined. There might have been a rise in energy level in the school, because we had an administrator tell us to slow it down, said senior Nicholas Junior-Galindo. Students quickly found out that students were only one part of their market. We had teachers lined up at the door before we opened, Junior-Galindo said, adding that some teachers come into

the shop as often as four times a day. The process of getting the shop running also was a learning experience, complete with filling out paperwork for the health department and State Fire Marshals office. We were actually turned down by the fire marshal the first time, due to not enough paperwork, said teacher Cherie Witt. A total of 18 students help staff the Lancer Latte coffee bar, including before and after school and during lunch.

A truly loveless marriage

Dear Annie: I am in a loveless marriage. My husband and I barely speak to each other. I mostly stay in my room because its easier than dealing with my life when Im not by myself. Do people really hold hands and kiss goodnight? This has never happened to me. I have panic attacks, and this is a problem. But I know I am capable of love if given the chance. Unfortunately, there are no more chances for me, because my husband just doesnt care. What can I do? Lonely Lady Dear Lonely: Your marriage sounds terrible. Are there children? Are you financially dependent on your husband? Are you unwilling to consider divorce? Why did you marry this man? Yes, couples hold hands and kiss goodnight and care deeply for each other. Please get some counseling, with or without your husband, and see what you can do to make your life better. Dear Annie: You have printed many letters from older people who are upset because they are estranged from their grandchildren or because they are not allowed to visit as often as they would like. Here are a few questions these folks might consider: 1. Do you treat your adult children like adults? Or do you mar visits with unsolicited advice and criticism disguised as concern? Typical topics that should be off-limits include child discipline and housekeeping. 2. Do you constantly make jokes at your childrens expense or revisit sensitive issues from their youth and then, when they object, claim they have no sense of humor? 3. Do you expect to be treated like royalty while visiting, rather than pitching in like family members should? This is especially frustrating when babies and young children are involved and parents could use an extra hand. Bring a dish to share or help prepare dinner and clean up after. Change the kids dirty diaper. Get your duff off of the sofa. 4. Do you consistently undermine your childrens authority in front of their own children? 5. Do you find yourself complaining to peers about your childrens reluctance

Annies mailbox
to invite you over or to take your advice about parenting? If so, trust me, it means the time before, during and after your visits is stressful to your child and his or her partner. And the grandchildren will eventually pick up on this. You are grandparents. That doesnt make you infallible. Take responsibility for your end of things. Rolled Up the Welcome Mat Dear Rolled: You make some good points, although we remember a time when grandparents received more respect, when a parents advice was cherished and no one would dream of asking Grandma to clean up the house. But on the other extreme, weve heard from children whose parents were physically and emotionally abusive and still expect to have full access to the grandchildren. The healthiest relationships lie somewhere in between. Dear Annie: Vermont Reader was upset that people use the handicapped stalls to change their childs diaper. Some stalls serve double duty, as there is no other accommodation for diaper changing and the handicapped stalls are the only areas large enough. Bathroom visits tend to be short, regardless of the reason. A person needing to wait for another to finish is not handicapped-specific. It happens to everyone. Sometimes we need to show a bit of latitude. Seen It

You sense it, someone says it, and suddenly you realize that it has arrived and theres no going back. Bonus: The truth usually, ultimately, makes things better. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22Dec. 21). The people who are fully themselves might not say the things you want them to say, and thats the beauty of it. Theyll say what they need to say, and youll respect that impulse.

Are you thinking or feeling? The functions are not mutually exclusive. Thinking without feeling is like dancing with only your feet youll fall. Believe in your inherent ability to counterbalance. PISCES (Feb. 19March 20). Dont ask anyone to change. Change is possible, but it usually doesnt occur as an answer to someones request. Practice acceptance, and when that isnt working for you, try harder.

Lt. governors $500K loan to Brownback not unusual


By The Associated Press
TOPEKA While a $500,000 loan from Lt. Gov. Jeff Colyer to the re-election campaign of Republican Gov. Sam Brownback raised a few eyebrows, analysts say the gift is part of a growing practice. Colyer made the contribution to Brownbacks campaign on Dec. 31, the last day of the recent reporting period. The money pushed Brownbacks total for the preceding 12 months to more than $1.6 million. Before the loan, the campaign had raised funds roughly equal to that raised by presumed Democratic nominee Paul Davis. The Kansas City Star reported that the practice of private loans has been growing in recent years in U.S. politics. The practice is legal. According to the Center for Responsive Politics, federal candidates spent $130 million of their own funds on campaigns in 2012. The National Institute on Money in State Politics found that in 2010 that the top-10 self-funders in state races spent $250,000 on their campaigns, an average of 83 percent of all the money they were able to raise. Analysts said the contributions are a sign that Brownback intends to show Democrats and donors that hes not taking the race lightly. When youre in Brownbacks position a Republican governor in a Republican state the perception that a Democrat has pulled even with you is no good, said Michael Smith, a political science professor at Emporia State University. Others said the advertising that will result from the money will outweigh any negativity attached to it. The Colyer contribution was an effort on the part of the Brownback campaign folks to plump up his war chest and make clear that Davis efforts werent going to upset the re-election apple cart, said Washburn University political science professor Mark Peterson.

FROM PAGE ONE/NEWS

Acoustic Junction

Brownback and his campaign team deflect any notion that his re-election effort was in trouble and needed the funds. I am committed to Kansas and doing everything I can to serve this state, Brownback told The Star in a brief interview. Were going to run a strong campaign to continue to serve the state of Kansas. Kansas campaign finance laws do not restrict how much money a candidate can loan to their campaigns. Carol Williams, executive director of the commission, said individuals outside the campaign may make loans, but they have to be repaid before the election or it becomes a contribution, subject to the $2,000 donation cap each for the primary and general election. Davis didnt report making any loans to his campaign, collecting contributions from labor organizations and the legal community, including Alan Rupe, a Wichita attorney suing the state over school funding.

Central African Republic chooses mayor as new leader


By The Associated Press
BANGUI, Central African Republic Members of a national transitional council chose the female mayor of Central African Republics capital to lead the country out of chaos Monday, as a top U.N. official urged the international community to keep the nation from crossing the tippingpoint into an all-out sectarian conflict. At two meetings in Brussels, international donors pledged a total of $496 million in humanitarian assistance and European Union foreign ministers took a first step toward potentially deploying hundreds more troops to reinforce French and African peacekeepers to secure the lawless and violent country where nearly one million people are displaced. Bangui Mayor Catherine Samba-Panza was chosen as interim president after two rounds of voting, becoming the first female leader in the countrys history. She beat out Desire Zanga-Kolingba, the son of a former president in Mondays runoff. Samba-Panza, dressed in a bright pink suit jacket, thrust her arms into the air in victory. French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius described the 59-year-old Samba-Panza as a very remarkable woman. Samba-Panza, a longtime corporate lawyer in the insurance industry who took over the mayors office last June, now will be tasked with organizing national elections before the end of 2014, a job critics say may be nearly impossible given the amount of looting and destruction to administrative buildings throughout the country. She also faces the enormous task of stemming anarchy and bloodshed that has left an untold number dead since a March 2013 coup. An armed Christian movement known as the anti-Balaka arose in opposition to the mostly Muslim Seleka rebellion that seized power then. I call on my children, especially the anti-Balaka, to put down their arms and stop all the fighting. some open sites for anybody passing through, Harms said. A lottery system is also in place to ensure that a camper does not have the same site every year. You may have a great site with shade trees, and your friends are sitting out in the sun, Harms said. A lottery will allow another person to get one of the nicer sites. Harms said he wants people to understands that USACE wants an equal opportunity for everybody to use sites on their property. Its just drawing that line on what we want to offer and what we cant, Harms said.

our young people, Lorraine Walker said. Events continued Sunday with a gospel tribute and musical celebration at the C.L. Hoover Opera House. The featured performer was the Wiley College A Cappella Choir of Marshall, Texas, under the direction of Dr. Stephen Hays. It was the second straight year the choir performed during Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. ceremonies in JC. Other performers included Justin Aaron and the Royal Priesthood, of the New Church of the Living God of Junction City; and The Chosen Four, a local a cappella quartet made up of city and county residents. Monday, a Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. commemoration and walk capped the festivities, highlighted by guest speaker Dr. Jose J. Soto, a graduate of USD 475 and the vice president for access, equity and diversity at Southeast Community College in Lincoln, Neb. Soto talked about some of the key prin-

ciples King emphasized during the course of his life, and emphasized the importance of not sleeping through the revolution. The legacy, life and works of Dr. King demand that we acknowledge the work remaining to be done in this community, that we assume some responsibility for doing the work in our neighborhoods, our businesses, our schools, and our local government, he said. Fellow officials echoed Sotos sentiments of needing to continue looking to the future. In becoming better or the best is something we all aspire to do, MLK committee member Larry Hicks said. I think we made incredible progress in the city of Junction City, but that doesnt mean that we still dont have challenges left to pursue. And the best way to be able to have any semblance of success is to be able to reach out and solicit the participation of those of you in this community in order to make things happen. Following Sotos speech, hundreds of supporters gathered on Jefferson Street for the annual commemorative walk throughout the city streets, led by songs and praise from committee organizers.

leasing property from the USACE. So with that lease, theres terms and conditions they have, Harms said. He said theyre trying to get everybody on the same page with the regulations. The policy was under way in 2010 and was revised in 2012. In the spring of 2013, letters were sent to all of the lessees participating in the program. Harms also said lease holders were invited to a meeting in the summer and were notified again before December. This was the first year

we had implementation of the program, Harms said. We were upfront about what was coming down the road and what the rules were going to be. The USACE policy is requiring that resort owners offer 75 percent of their spots for nine months for the seasonal program. For the remaining months, those sites must be completely vacated. Harms said the purpose is to make sure the campers have up-to-date registration with proper maintenance. The remaining 25 percent must remain open for rental camping, which requires users to move every two weeks. That 25 percent guarantees that theres going to be

MANHATTAN Kansas State forward Thomas Gipson raced down the court before rising over the West Virginia defenders who tried sliding under him to impede his progress. The junior rose up and softly bounced the ball off the glass and down into the net to give K-State a 77-56 lead with 1:26 left in the game. Upon returning to earth from his orbit above the rim, Gipson, along with two other regulars from the rotation, went to the scorers table to check out of the game to a standing ovation by the fans in Bramlage Coliseum. With the Wildcats (14-4, 3-1) holding a firm grip on the game, Gipson was able to sit on the bench and joke with his teammates as the final minute of their 78-56 win against West Virginia (10-8, 2-3) expired. For Gipson, the win was a relief. He was limited to just four points in 16 minutes in

LAWRENCE Defense and hustle have been the hallmarks of Kansas ever since Bill Self took over the program. Heck, they were a big part of it even before his arrival. So, not surprisingly, Self was pleased that it was defense and hustle that triggered the defining run in the eighth-ranked Jayhawks 78-68 victory over No. 24 Baylor on Monday night. First was the defense: Perry Ellis stepped in front of a lackadaisical pass by the Bears, race up court and finished while getting fouled. He made the free throw, too. Then the hustle: Wayne Selden tracked down a loose ball along the sideline, saved it to teammate Joel Embiid as he leaped over a table and fell into the laps of two Baylor fans, and was still struggling to get back to the court when his teammate converted the layup.

He said his poor performance Tuesday affected him emotionally and inspired him to come out and work hard all week in practice. Last game I wasnt in a rhythm and I was in foul trouble and couldnt get emotional and play, Gipson said. I really wanted to come out and play and get early shots, rebound for my team and play total defense and talk and just be careful of my fouls and I feel like since I didnt foul early I was able to get my rhythm and play well. After falling into an early 8-3 hole three minutes into the game, Gipson sank backto-back shots to bring the Wildcats within one. (Gipson) had his way, West Virginia coach Bob Huggins said.

BASEHOR Late in the Basehor-Linwood wrestling tournament, the Junction City section couldve been confused with an infirmary. After pulling out 113-pound wrestler Lake Deam at the outset of the tournament due to a shoulder injury suffered the previous night, Junction City coach Robert Laster decided to hold out two more wrestlers Andrew Millsap (152-pounder) and Jeryl Denton (160-pounder) from their final matches after he was concerned about them further exacerbating their injuries. The decision led to Junction City finishing in 13th place at the Basehor-Linwood tournament on Saturday with 82.5 points. St. James Academy won the tournament with 209 points.

A pair of underclassmen in their first year on the Blue Jay wrestling squad paced Junction City. Sophomore Gabe Padilla (120-pound division), who moved from Oklahoma, and freshman Kayne Hutchinson each finished in fifth place. Padilla fell in the second round on the championship side before battling through the backside of the bracket to score 15 team points.

Chiefs linebacker Derrick Johnson and quarterback Alex Smith were chosen Monday to replace 49ers linebacker NaVorro Bowman and Patriots quarterback Tom Brady in the Pro Bowl. The two substitutions means Kansas City will be sending 10 players to Hawaii. Bowman tore the anterior cruciate and medial collateral ligaments in his left knee in Sundays NFC championship loss to Seattle. Brady bowed out of the all-star game one day after New England lost to Denver in the AFC championship. This will be Johnsons third straight Pro Bowl, while Smith will be headed to his first. Theyll be joined in Hawaii by Chiefs left tackle Branden Albert, safety Eric Berry, running back Jamaal Charles, cornerback Brandon Flowers, defensive tackle Dontari Poe, punt returner Dexter McCluster and linebackers Tamba Hali and Justin Houston.

Russias counter-terrorism agency says it is studying a video posted by an Islamic militant group asserting responsibility for suicide bombings last month that killed 34 people in Volgograd and threatening to strike the Winter Olympics in Sochi. The video was posted online Sunday by a militant group in Dagestan, a predominantly Muslim republic in Russias North Caucasus. Two Russian-speaking men featured in the video are identified as members of Ansar alSunna, the name of a militant group operating in Iraq. It was unclear whether they had received funding or training from the group or only adopted its name. There was no confirmation the men were the Volgograd suicide bombers as the video claims. The National Anti-Terrorism Committee said Monday it was studying the video and would have no immediate comment.

Kansas women upset No. 7 Baylor 76-60


Associated Press
LAWRENCE Kansas coach Bonnie Henrickson heard all week from people telling her how unfortunate her team was for having to play Baylor after the Bears gave UConn all it could handle in a loss Monday. Eventually, Henrickson got tired of people writing Kansas off before the game and reminded them that, hey, Kansas had just lost a tough game of its own, this one to Texas. We were kind of ornery, too, Henrickson said. We were pretty salty about that as well. After a sluggish start, Kansas snapped out of its funk and won its first game of the season against a ranked program, sending No. 7 Baylor to its second straight loss, 76-60 Sunday at Allen Fieldhouse. Chelsea Gardner scored 28 points and Natalie Knight added 18 for the Jayhawks (9-9, 2-4 Big 12). CeCe Harper added 10 points for Kansas, which defeated Baylor for the first time in nine games. The Jayhawks also ended the Bears 44-game regular-season Big 12 winning streak. Odyssey Sims scored 31 points for the Bears (14-2, 4-1), but she, like the rest of the Bears, struggled shooting and was held to 10 points in the second half. The difference was we worked on denying her the ball and not letting her catch it so she wouldnt have easy touches, Harper said. We focused on boxing her out and trying to avoid her getting the passes out on the rebounds. Niya Johnson added eight points for Baylor, which lost for the first time in 70 games against unranked opponents and was held 31 points below its season average. After scoring 21 points in the first half, Sims game, highlighted by a layup and free throw from Harper that put Kansas up 12 with 4 minutes left. While Baylor struggled without Sims shot, Kansas received help from a variety of players. Gardner gave Kansas the lead for good with a pair of free throws, then Asia Boyd scored five straight points to give Kansas all the breathing room it needed for the rest of the game. With this group here its an opportunity for everybody to contribute, Henrickson said. I think sometimes those teams are the most fun because practice is most competitive because everybodys trying to fight for minutes in a good way. The Jayhawks shot 54 percent in the second half, while Baylor shot only 29 percent. Baylor had an 11-point lead twice in first half, but Kansas cut into that margin both times, even briefly taking the lead after a 9-0 run late in the first half. Ieshia Small converted a layup just before halftime to give the Bears a 32-31 lead at the break. Sims provided most of Baylors offense in the first half, with her teammates combining for only 11 points. Gardner had 13 at the half for Kansas, as both teams other players struggled offensively. The Bears shot 32 percent in the first half, while the Jayhawks shot 34 percent and the teams combined to go 4 of 18 from 3-point range. Gardner and Knight combined for 12 points during a 17-5 Kansas run to stifle the Bears momentum heading into the locker room. I came in the game knowing that we could beat them, Gardner said. The beginning of the game we werent as ready as we should have been. After the first timeout we came ready to fight and play and kept pushing the gas pedal.

made only 4 of 19 shots in the second half, and without her the Bears couldnt do much offensively. When it was out of her hands people were taking shots that they werent comfortable taking, Harper said. She was having to get rid of it a lot more than shes used to. I think the traps worked well because we were catching her off guard a lot. Kansas took control of the game in the final 10 minutes after trading the lead for the first part of the second half. After Baylor took a 45-44 lead, Kansas went on a 32-15 run the rest of the

Creighton hits 21 treys in 96-68 win over No. 4 Villanova


B Y D AN G ELSTON

Associated Press
PHILADELPHIA Ethan Wragge let the 3s fly, and helped the records fall. Wragge tied a school record with nine 3-pointers for all 27 points, Doug McDermott hit five 3s and scored 23 points, and Creighton set a team mark with 21 3-pointers in a 96-68 victory over No. 4 Villanova on Monday night. Wragge only surprised Villanova, not his teammates. Ive seen him shoot better in practice, McDermott said. Ive seen him hit 11 or 12 3s in an open gym, thats normal. So not a lot of us are shocked. The outside world, everyones kind of shocked. But thats just another day at the office for Ethan. The Bluejays (16-3, 6-1 Big East) topped the school record of 20 3s set in 2005 against Chattanooga. Kyle Korver hit nine 3s against Evansville on Jan. 15, 2003. The Bluejays, in their first year in the Big East, set a conference record for most 3s in a game and beat a topfive team for the first time since 1970. Once I get one, they know Im hunting for two and three, Wragge said. Its a hard feeling to describe once you get one to go in. You just kind of let it fly and dont think about it. The Bluejays hit their first nine 3s and never looked back against Villanova (16-2, 5-1) which had romped its way toward its highest ranking in four years. They made 21 of 35 3-pointers and led by as many 41 points. Wragge hit eight 3s in the first half and Creighton built a 28-point lead. By three or four, I kind of knew where I was at, he said. Wragge, who finished 9 of 14 from 3-point range, tied Korvers record with his ninth 3-pointer with 13:59 left for a 68-45 lead. McDermott followed with his third 3 and Austin Chatman hit one the next time down for the stunning 29-point lead. Its tough to beat a team that hits 21 3s, McDermott

said. The Bluejays refused to slow down from 3-point range, with McDermotts fourth 3 extending the lead to 30 and making them 19 for 31. Oh, and Creighton had 19 3s at the same time Villanova had 16 total field goals. McDermott, the two-time All-America, tied Creightons team record with 20 3s not long after, sending the crowd at the home of the NBAs Philadelphia 76ers fleeing for the exits. Jahenns Manigat hit Creightons record 21st 3-pointer to make it 88-50 with 7:33 left. He made four 3s and scored 19 points. Somehow, this was the same Creighton team that never led in an 81-68 loss at Providence on Saturday. The Bluejays made only four 3s in the loss. Providence did a better job sticking with Wragge and not leaving him, Villanova coach Jay Wright said. It was the worst loss in Wrights 13 seasons at Villanova. The Bluejays beat a ranked team for the first time since 2007 and a top-five team for the first time since Jan. 29, 1970, against No. 5 New Mexico State. That was one of the more incredible things Ive ever been a part of, Creighton coach Greg McDermott said. The Wildcats played with their highest ranking since they were No. 3 on Feb. 15, 2010. They are not going to stay No. 4 for long. Villanova might want to work on defending Wragge in the Feb. 16 rematch. James Bell scored 19 points for the Wildcats while JayVaughn Pinkston added 11 and Darrun Hilliard had 10. We dont pay attention to any of the rankings, Hilliard said. We just focus on each other. They should have put more focus on Wragge. He took all of six shots this season inside the 3-point arc, and with good reason. Hes rarely missed from long range. Against Villanova, the 49-percent 3-point shooter

Creightons Doug McDermott takes a shot past Villanovas Josh Hart Monday in Philadelphia.
didnt miss at all, at least on his first seven attempts. His seventh 3 put the Bluejays up 27-8 just 7 1/2 minutes into the game. With McDermott running into double teams, Wragge was all alone, even hitting one in front of Villanovas bench without a defender within 2 feet of him. Even with the hot hand, Wragge hit the bench for a spell maybe he had a tired arm to rest up from all those 3s. They came one right after another, Bell said. Wragges teammates picked up the slack. McDermott, Manigat and Isaiah Zierden each hit two 3s and Creighton finished the first half a whopping 14 of 22 (64 percent) from beyond the arc. Creightons season high had been 16 against Chicago State on Dec. 29. McDermott had his usual solid game, shooting 8 of 13 with five rebounds in 28 minutes. He hit five 3s, but its all the passes he makes from inside, the attention he demands, Wright said. Hes a joy to watch. You dont like it when hes doing it to you. The Bluejays couldnt quite keep their 150-point pace game going and Villanova used a 16-3 run to pull to 54-41 at halftime. The Wildcats, who used early season wins over Kansas and Iowa to crack the poll, had no second-half comeback in them this time. The Wildcats had made themselves quite at home at the Wells Fargo Center, beating three Top 25 teams there last season en route to the NCAA tournament.

Virginia hands UNC 76-61 loss


B Y H ANK KURZ J R.

Associated Press
CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. Joe Harris and Virginia led North Carolina by nine at halftime on Monday night, and went into the locker room feeling lousy about the way they had played, and fortunate to be in front. They fixed it after the intermission, quickly building their lead to 15 points. They never allowed the Tar Heels to get back within single digits and sent them to another Atlantic Coast Conference loss, 76-61 at John Paul Jones Arena. We didnt come out and play very well at all, Harris said of the opening 20 minutes, which nonetheless ended with the Cavaliers ahead 38-29. There were a lot of breakdowns we had defensively and we were a little sped up on offense. Even though we were winning in the first half, we didnt feel very good about

it. Virginia finished the half on a 12-2 run. And when the Cavaliers scored 10 of the first 14 points of the second half, building their advantage to 48-33, they had plenty of cushion to cruise to victory. The second half was a lot better, Harris said. Malcolm Brogdon and Harris scored 16 points each and Justin Anderson had 13 for the Cavaliers (14-5, 5-1), who continued their best start in ACC play since the 1994-95 team also opened 5-1. Moreover, two of the wins this season have come in three tries on the road. Were feeling good right now, senior forward Akil Mitchell said. Were on a roll and as long as we keep sticking to what we do, weve got a good team and we know we can be good. Kennedy Meeks scored 15 points and James Michael McAdoo had 11 for North Carolina (11-7, 1-4). The Tar Heels avoided the first 0-4

ACC start in team history by beating Boston College in their last game, but trailed almost throughout against the Cavaliers. The easiest way to put it

is the more efficient team won the game, Tar Heels coach Roy Williams said, lamenting his teams inability to turn offensive rebounds into points.

SPORTS K-STATE
Continued from Page 1B
freshmen on him and he just big-boyed them. Then senior Shane Southwell hit a 3-point shot to give K-State a lead it would never relinquish. All game long, the Wildcats offense worked the ball around West Virginias defense to find open shots. K-State totaled 22 assists on 28 field goals. They pass it and cut, pass it and cut and they end up with somebody taking a good shot at the end, Huggins said. At one point we had two guys on the guy with the ball and he still makes a pass to a guy for an open 10-footer which they always make and seemingly we always miss. Freshman Jevon Thomas led the Wildcats, racking up eight assists and not turning the ball over once. But in the first half, Southwell really took care of business, where he scored 12 of his 20 points. Within the offense, youre going to get shots and youve got to make shots, Southwell said. Early in the year, I dont think I was making shots and now Im getting the same shots and am pretty much making them now and in the past few games. Southwell scored his teams final points of the first half with a vicious put-back slam to give his team a 37-22 lead. West Virginia scored once more before the half but

couldnt regain any lost momentum. On the first possession after halftime, Gipson drew the West Virginia defense into him on the block. He popped the ball out to Southwell, who calmly stroked the trey. K-State coach Bruce Weber said the sequence broke their spirits. Sophomore Marcus Foster, limited to just 13 minutes due

to early foul trouble, still managed 15 points in the game. Kansas State travels to Austin Monday to play a Texas team (14-4, 3-2) that defeated No. 8 Iowa State Saturday. We had a rude awakening at Kansas, Weber said. Now its another chance on the road and when we get done with that then its whoevers next after that well worry about them. Right now, its worry about the Longhorns.

prise people when the state tournament rolls around. Most of the guys that Kayne is wrestling are upperclassmen mostly seniors (and there was some really good 220-pounders) I was really pleased with his progress, Laster said, So (Padilla and Hutchinson) are going to be the key to how we do at state because sometimes you need that missing link to complete the puzzle. Senior Devonte Wilson (182-pound division), who was on a tear to start the season by recording two tournament wins and one second-place finish, stumbled for the first time this season. He lost his first match of the tournament before fighting through four consolation rounds until he was knocked out, falling one win shy of placing.

He made some mistakes that cost him, Laster said. One of the mistakes he tried to throw somebody, the throw wasnt needed and he ended up on his back and that was a big turning point of that match. It was pretty much he made some technical mistakes that cost him and you cant make technical mistakes against good wrestlers because theyll capitalize on it, and that could be the reason why he lost and for him that was the reason why he lost. Im glad he made the mistakes there and that way we can correct those mistakes before we get to a place where mistakes like that will truly cost him. Junction City heads to Emporia for a five-team dual tournament this weekend. In the dual setting its about who can get the pins and who doesnt give up big points so thats going to be our key, Laster said.

sas needed. I thought even though our defense wasnt great tonight, Self said, it was nice to have energy keying our run there, because we had so many opportunities. Ellis finished with 18 points to lead the Jayhawks (14-4, 5-0 Big 12), while Andrew Wiggins scored 17 most of them at the free throw line, where he was 10 of 12. Kansas finished 26 of 29 from the free throw line, pushing it to its fifth straight win. The last four have come against Top 25 teams Kansas State, Iowa State, Oklahoma State and Baylor making the Jayhawks the first to accomplish that feat since North Carolina in 1997. Might as well get used to playing good teams all the time, Wiggins said. Brady Heslip hit six 3-pointers and scored 19 points for the Bears (13-5, 1-4), who have lost three straight and four of five. Cory Jefferson and Isaiah Austin added 16 points apiece. We knew that turnovers and getting them out of transition, we knew how effective they are in transition, Baylor coach Scott Drew said. You cant have 16 turnovers and win games on the road, in places like this. Got to get better in this area. The teams combined for 16 turnovers in a disjointed first half that included 12 lead changes but virtually no rhythm. The Jayhawks managed to squeeze out a two-point halftime lead, but they had to shoot 60 percent from the field to do it. Thats because Baylor was scorching from beyond the arc. Heslip hit all four of his 3-point tries and the 7-foot Austin added two he was 0 for 4 from inside the arc. Along with the two 3-pointers that Jefferson hit, the Bears knocked down 8 of 10 beyond the perimeter in the first half. They were 4 of 18 everywhere else. The game remained close until Ellis scored inside with 12:48 remaining to start the Jayhawks on their game-defining run, and then came the two biggest highlights of the game. First, the steal and breakaway basket by Ellis: They did it a couple plays before, he said. I just tried to hurry out there as best as I could and get the deflection. Then the hustle play by Selden: Just the eyes in the back of my head, he said. Everybody elses eyes had quickly turned to Embiid including the offi-

Jamaican bobsledders heading to Sochi

Get ready, Sochi: The Jamaicans are coming, and theyre bringing their bobsled again. Jamaican bobsled pilot Winston Watts and the nations Olympic Committee said Monday they are accepting an invitation to compete in next months Sochi Olympics. Its the first time the Jamaican bobsled team will compete in the games since 2002. The invitation comes after Watts accumulated enough points in lower-tier races in North America to qualify. Oh, man, its really overwhelming, Watts said in a telephone interview Monday. Im really happy. I have the whole entire world behind us. The Jamaica bobsled team is very popular, but when I see and hear that the whole entire world, even the Middle East I mean, really, theres a place in the Middle East that calls me and I dont even know its name we have fans from so far away. For a little tiny island, its so emotional. Watts said in an earlier interview Saturday with The Associated Press that the team had qualified, but was unsure about its ability to participate because of funding. He estimated he needed up to $80,000 to make the Olympic trip. Much of that concern went away Monday, when Jamaican Olympic officials said they and the Sochi Organizing Committee would cover all travel costs for the

cials as the 7-foot freshman converted the basket. The only people who seemed to notice that Seldens foot was out of bounds were the folks who were able to catch the replay on television. He was out of bounds? Heslip asked. Maybe he deserves it because that was great hustle. Drew burned a timeout as things started to get away from the Bears, but the Jayhawks kept right on charging. Naadir Tharpes 3-pointer made it 60-46 with 8:16 left in the game. From there, it was a matter of Kansas maintaining its lead. Austin hit a 3-pointer to get Baylor within 61-51 with just over 6 minutes left, but Wiggins made four straight from the free throw line. Heslip hit another 3-pointer with 3:45 to go, but Wiggins scored on a scooping layup to keep the cushion comfortable. Just about the only thing that went wrong toward the end of the game for Kansas came when reserve forward Tarik Black hurt his lower leg. He appeared to get rolled into by the Bears Rico Gathers, and Black needed considerable help to make it off the court. He just turned his ankle, Self said. I didnt think you could hurt him, but he should be fine. Hell be fine.

team. Watts said he is still doing additional fundraising for equipment, such as different kinds of runners for the sled. Teams typically have several different sets of runners to choose from, depending on ice conditions. The moneys not all covered yet, Watts said. Were still hoping for help. But I am very excited that were officially qualified. Its been 12 years since Jamaica has had a sled in the Olympics, with Watts finishing 28th at the Salt Lake City Games with Lascelles Brown now a key part of Canadas national team. Brown won a medal with the Canadians at the 2010 Vancouver Games, one where the Jamaicans were hoping to compete but were again thwarted by funding issues. Watts himself spent nearly a decade in retirement, no longer able to self-fund much of the teams operations. But the chance to race in Sochi brought him back. Once again, the pride of the country is with our athletes who continue to blaze the trail, the Jamaican Olympic Committee said in a statement. Officially, five people were nominated to the team Monday: Watts, brakeman Marvin Dixon, backup Wayne Blackwood, coach Thomas Samuel and Chris Stokes, who will serve as the mission chief. Stokes was part of the groundbreaking team that represented Jamaica in bobsled at the 1988 Calgary Games. He returned to the Olympics in 1992, 1994 and 1998.
