Supporters of the C.L. Hoover Opera House have a clear vision of what theyd like the facility to become.

A frigid evening was no match for the warmth of the holiday spirit as soldiers, families and the Fort Riley community gathered to celebrate the holidays at the annual 1st Infantry Division and Fort Riley Tree Lighting Ceremony 5:30 p.m. Dec. 5 at Ware Parade Field. The event included the lighting of the tree by Fort Rileys Family of the Year, a performance by a Fort Riley childrens choir, a performance by the Fort Riley Army Spouses Choir and a visit from Santa Claus himself. Maj. Gen. Paul E. Funk II, commanding general, 1st Infantry Division and Fort Riley, wished those in attendance happy holidays and asked that they remember service members in harms way. Funk remarked that the holiday season captures the spirit of selfless service found in the military and expressed his gratitude for those who serve.

As the cold wind blew outside, a crowd of people gathered inside a hallway of Geary Community Hospital to remember family members no longer here. Although the frigid weather Thursday kept them from holding lit candles at the Tribute Garden, the message and purpose still shined during the 14th annual Holiday Tree

of Memories. Jolana Montgomery-Matney, executive director of the Geary Community Healthcare Foundation, said light has always been of particular significance, throughout human history. But we will remember those individuals who have been light or provided light for us, she said. Light is so special, that even death could not dim their memory or diminish their impact on our lives. Rev. Redo Purnell of the

Secondary Missionary Baptist Church also made remarks during a prayer for the families. Deacon Rex Matney performed the benediction. Tonight we remember before you, all those we loved but can no longer see, Purnell said. May this Tree of Memory, be a reminder to us as their presence with us, as it shines in the darkness throughout this holiday season. Please see Loved, 10A

How bout those beards?

B Y C HASE JORDAN

c.jordan@thedailyunion.net
With their hairy beards, a few men around town could have easily been mistaken for Santa Claus. But dont expect to see the Duck Dynasty, look from them anytime soon. Its December and most of those beards are coming off. As a part of No Shave November, 10 local men endured irritation and complaints from their wives, to raise money for United Way of Junction City-Geary County.

Participant Scott Stuckey said the contest started with a bunch of lazy guys, who did not want to shave. We decided to make it a fundraiser for United Way, so we can have a legitimate excuse for our wives, he said with humor about the beard craze. And no, they didnt buy it for a second. One even threatened to not shave herself for a month. It was our first stab at it, maybe we can make it better next year. Ailleen Cray, executive director of the local United Way, said its

something that would be fun to do in the future. I think it was a fun idea, Cray said about the contest and donations. Every little bit helps. Were grateful for anyone who wants to support our work and help the agencies in our communities. Along with Stuckey, participants included Matt Hagemeir, Justin Hoover, Matt Hoover, Ron Johnson, Ben Kitchens, John Leslie, Josh Marquardt, Chris Stuber and Jim Watson. The first contest was put together a couple of days before the Nov.

1 start date. Awards were distributed Thursday night at Spruce Suites. The sponsors wives were the judges. Hoover won the Most Important Man in the World Award, while Hagemeir received the Most Creative Beard Award. Justin Hoover won the Best Beard and Scott Stuckey the Worst. Aileen was not sure of the total raised, but each participant donated a minimum of $25 to participate. Watson also raised funds by collecting money with a jar at his job.

Hospital call system receives upgrade after failure

B Y C HASE JORDAN

c.jordan@thedailyunion.net
After the nurse call system at Geary Community Hospital failed in October, patients now have to rely on a manual bell to receive service. According to officials, this causes safety concerns and patients feel as if they are being ignored if the bell is not heard. But that soon will change. A new call system is expected to improve services in the hospitals

emergency and radiology departments. Board of Trustees members approved the purchase of a system worth more than $23,000. The Ascom Telligence C300 Call System will replace the older one installed in 1993, when the emergency department

was established. Dawn Engel, nursing administrator, said the patients can no longer just pull a cord for service. Family members have to assist as well. Its kind of a primitive method, Engel said. When you need a nurse,

you dont want to wait until they can figure out who needs you. It will provide an immediate response to the patients needs. GCH Chief Executive Officer Joe Stratton said it will allow staff to respond in a quick and prompt manner.

We think its important to be mindful of patient safety and thats what the decision was about, Stratton said. Steve Rippert, department manager and maintenance official, said the system should be ready by mid-December.

Autopsy: Actor died from impact, fire in crash

By The Associated Press
LOS ANGELES Fast & Furious star Paul Walker was killed by injuries from both the impact and subsequent fire when the Porsche his friend was driving smashed into a light pole and tree, according to an autopsy released Wednesday. The actor died from the combined effects of traumatic and thermal injuries, according to the autopsy released by the Los Angeles County coroners office. The 2005 Porsche Carrera GT was driven by Roger Rodas, who was dead from multiple traumatic injuries before the car exploded in flames, the autopsy said. Results of toxicology testing will take another six to eight weeks. Walker starred in all but one of the six Fast & Furious blockbuster films that glorified fast cars and dangerous driving. Sheriffs investigators are still trying to determine what caused Rodas to careen out of control Saturday. They have said speed was a factor in the crash about 30 miles northwest of downtown Los Angeles. Meanwhile, Universal Pictures announced that it has shut down production for an unspecified time on Fast & Furious 7.

Mandela dead at 95

Song, dance, tears, and prayer in South Africa

Associated Press
JOHANNESBURG South Africans erupted in song, dance and tears on Friday in public and emotional celebrations of the life of Nelson Mandela, the anti-apartheid leader who bridged this countrys black-white divide and helped avert a race war. People of all colors hugged and shared emotional moments as antiapartheid leaders like retired archbishop Desmond Tutu called for the 51 million South Africans to adhere to the values of unity and democracy that Mandela embodied. The tributes to Mandela that came from people across the spectrum showed that he had affected people deeply. What I liked most about Mandela was his forgiveness, his passion, his diversity, the impact of what he did, said Ariel Sobel, a white man who was born in 1993, a year before Mandela was elected president. I am not worried about what will happen next. We will continue as a nation. We knew this was coming. We are prepared. Sobel was with a crowd of people who had gathered at Mandelas home in the leafy Johannesburg neighborhood of Houghton where Mandela spent his last sickly months. A dozen doves were released into the skies and people sang tribal songs, the national anthem, God Bless Africa the anthem of the anti-apartheid struggle and Christian hymns. Many wore traditional garb of Zulu, Xhosa and South Africas other ethnic groups. One carried a sign saying: He will rule the universe with God. In Soweto, the rough and tumble black township where Mandela used to live, pockets of dancers and singers shuffled through the street, celebrating Mandelas life. Dozens of kids held oversized pictures of the antiapartheid icon. Im sorry, Im too emotional. The tears come too easily, Themba Radebe, a 60-year-old who was filming the street celebration with his phone, told a reporter. He later decided to share his thoughts. This is a celebration of the death, because we knew he was an old man, said Radebe, whose eyes sparkled with shallow tears. He brought a lot of changes to our community, because I grew up in apartheid. It was a very bad situation. President Jacob Zuma

People of all colors hugged and shared emotional moments as anti-apartheid leaders like retired archbishop Desmond Tutu called for the 51 million South Africans to adhere to the values of unity and democracy that Mandela embodied. The tributes to Mandela that came from people across the spectrum showed that he had affected people deeply.
announced that Mandela is to be buried during a state funeral in his rural home town of Qunu on Sunday, Dec. 15. A memorial service is to be held on Tuesday in FNB Stadium in Johannesburg. Mandelas last public appearance was at the same stadium in 2010 for the closing ceremony of the soccer World Cup. Mandelas body will then lie in state in Pretoria for three days. Sunday marks a national day of prayer and reflection. We call upon all our people to gather in halls, churches, mosques, temples, synagogues and in their homes for prayer services and meditation, reflecting on the life of Madiba and his contribution to our country and the world, Zuma said, using Mandelas clan name. Zuma had announced late Thursday that Mandela, who had been in and out of the hospital four times since February 2011, was dead. He was last admitted in June with a recurring lung infection from which he never recovered, though he was released in September to convalesce at home. After midnight, a black SUV-type vehicle containing Mandelas coffin, draped in South Africas flag, pulled away from Mandelas home, escorted by military motorcycle outriders, to take the body to a military morgue in Pretoria. In a church service in Cape Town, Tutu, who like Mandela was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize, said Mandela would want South Africans themselves to be his memorial by adhering to the values of unity and democracy that he embodied. He recalled the early 1990s when South Africa teetered on the brink of a race war. All of us here in many ways amazed the world, a world that was expecting us to be devastated by a racial conflagration, Tutu said. He recalled how Mandela helped unite South Africa as it dismantled apartheid, the cruel system of white minority rule, and prepared for all-race elections in 1994. In those elections, Mandela, who spent 27 years in prison, became South Africas first black president. God, thank you for the gift of Madiba, said Tutu in his closing his prayer. In Mandelas hometown of Qunu in the wide-open spaces of the Eastern Cape province, relatives consoled each other as they Associated Press mourned the death of A well-wisher writes a message on a poster of Nelson Mandela on which she and others have written South Africas most their messages of condolence and support, Friday in the street outside his old house in Soweto, Johanfamous citizen. nesburg, South Africa. Mandela was a very human person with a sense of humor who took interest in people around him, said F.W. de Klerk, South Africas last apartheid-era president. The two men negotiated the end of apartheid, finding common cause in often tense circumstances, and shared the Nobel Peace Prize in 1993. Summarizing Mandelas legacy, de Klerk paraphrased Mandelas own words on eNCA television: Never and never again should there be in South Africa the suppression of anyone by another. On Vilakazi Street in Soweto, 26-year-old Vathiswa Nongo go brought her nearly 3-yearold daughter Konwabo to the celebratory atmosphere.

Nelson Mandela conscience of the world

The following editorial appeared in the Chicago Tribune on Friday, Dec. 6

During my lifetime I have dedicated myself to this struggle of the African people. I have fought against white domination, and I have fought against black domination. I have cherished the ideal of a democratic and free society in which all persons live together in harmony and with equal opportunities. It is an ideal which I hope to live for and to achieve. But if needs be, it is an ideal for which I am prepared to die. In 1964, Nelson Mandela spoke those words in a South African courtroom, while on trial for plotting to overthrow the countrys all-white apartheid government. Mandela received a life sentence and while imprisoned for the better part of the next three decades, he became a worldwide symbol in the fight to end the apartheid subjugating South Africas black majority. But Mandela, who died Thursday at age 95, was more than just a symbol. His name was a clarion call for people across the globe in their struggles against oppression. He personified the triumph of nearly unimaginable perseverance over nearly unimaginable tribulation: After 27 years in prison Mandela was released in 1990. Immediately, at the age of 71, he began negotiating a peaceful transition to a multiracial democracy in South Africa, where racial policies had provoked generations of violence and hate. For the rest of his life, the worlds most famous prisoner refused to show bitterness to his enemies, preferring instead to seek reconciliation. His actions were, and continue to be, a model for peaceful conflict resolution worldwide. When he shared the Nobel Peace Prize in 1993 with his former jailer, South African President F.W. De Klerk _ Mandela discreetly declined comment, realizing the wrong words might unravel the fragile negotiations to dismantle apartheid. Fittingly, he was elected the first black president of South Africa in 1994 in the countrys first multiracial election. His top priority was to oversee the creation of a new constitution, guaranteeing equality for all. He also brought together disparate elements of the country, black and white, to address the grinding poverty and homelessness that afflicted his country. Despite his enormous impact, Mandela was a self-deprecating man who would have rejected attempts to portray him as martyr or saint. Modest to a fault, he often disarmed opponents and amused friends with his puckish sense of humor. While in prison, he played soccer with other inmates and his entire life he remained a proud and passionate soccer fan. He helped South Africa obtain the 2010 World Cup and was photographed beaming at the cup finale. He knew personal tragedy beyond but during imprisonment his mother and eldest son both died while he was in prison and he was not permitted to attend their funerals. His well-known second wife, married to him during his imprisonment, was involved in a sordid public scandal after their divorce. In 2005, his only surviving son died of AIDS, a disease that ravaged South Africa, and one that Mandela had assumed a public role in fighting. If one person could be called the conscience of the world, it would be Nelson Mandela. Nadine Gordimer, the South African writer and Nobel laureate for literature, once said of her fellow countryman, He is at the epicenter of our time, ours in South Africa, and yours, wherever you are. The best way for us to truly honor his life, his suffering, and his memory is to uphold the values he embodied and fight the injustices he forced the world to confront. His inspiration is universal, his legacy timeless.

Mandelas legacy of forgiveness, hope

CYNTHIA TUCKER
Commentary anticipation, the fear, the jubilation and the jockeying for political position that accompanied the collapse of apartheid. As the old system fell apart, traditional black leaders clashed with Mandelas African National Congress in a contest for dominance in the new order. There was much intrigue among the black factions, some of which erupted into violence. (It was fueled by the apartheid government, which secretly funded one factions attacks on the ANC). In the end, Mandela was the one figure who could unite South Africas black majority. He won broad support because he had stood for so long through 27 years of imprisonment as a symbol of black defiance. And what of white South Africans? It was clear that they would no longer rule the countrys political order, but how would they fare? Many feared that their black countrymen, once in control, would turn the tables, subjecting them to the same sadism and silliness that apartheid had mandated. But Mandela would have none of that. Convicted of treason in 1962 for his anti-apartheid activities, he was imprisoned on Robbin Island for much of his confinement. He was placed in an 8-foot by 7-foot cell and given a straw mat to sleep on. His reading material was heavily restricted he was not allowed newspapers as were his visitors. Though he was ordered to break rocks in the glaring sunlight every day, he was denied sunglasses; over time, his vision was damaged. He contracted tuberculosis. (The TB may have led to the lung ailment that eventually claimed his life.) When his firstborn son died, he was not allowed to attend the funeral. Still, he managed to read and study during those years, learning, among other things, Afrikaans, the language of his oppressors. He figured he might be able to persuade a few of his guards to renounce apartheid. And despite the decades of bitter confinement, he emerged an enlightened leader when he was released in 1990. He understood that his new democracy needed the technocratic skills and the economic power of its white minority. He also understood that hate could only breed more hate, reprisals more reprisals. As he put it, Resentment is like drinking poison and then hoping it will kill your enemies. Mandela couldnt solve his countrys every problem, of course. Despite the expectations raised by the end of white rule, most black South Africans still live in abject poverty. Corruption remains a threat to the rule of law. The nation could yet revert, becoming one more failed state. But it has a decent shot at a promising future. Thats the legacy Mandela bequeaths to his country.

ven as much of the world mourns his passing, it is easy to underestimate Nelson Mandelas greatness. His legacy has been fused with Tinseltown dramas starring such presidential figures as Dennis Haysbert and Morgan Freeman. Accustomed as we are to Hollywoods happy endings, we might miss the sheer extraordinariness of Mandelas life. He was a once-in-a-century figure, the sort of man who could endure the most inhumane treatment and emerge with grace, dignity and not a trace of bitterness. His ability to forgive the Afrikaners who devised the depraved system of apartheid and to urge his fellow black South Africans to do the same was an incredible gift to the nation he led. Todays South Africa is no blissful paradise, its gorgeous beaches, enthralling wildlife sanctuaries and stunning mountain vistas notwithstanding. The nation struggles with a staggering rate of violent crime. It has the worlds highest incidence of HIV infection. And it harbors an income inequality that would befit any feudal state. Still, its people made the transition from apartheid without all-out civil war. It is not only Africas most successful economy, but also the 28thlargest in the world. Its democratic elections are widely believed to be fairly conducted. None of those successes was pre-ordained, and they were all given a major assist by the preternatural spirit of one man: Mandela. In 1990, following his release from prison, I wrote newspaper dispatches from South Africas major cities and from poor, desperate, all-black townships. I witnessed the anxiety, the

arketing surveys now show that when Americans come home from work, more folks turn on their computers than their television sets. That is a first. The reason is twofold: First, you can create your own world on your PC, and second, TV is awful. Flat-out awful. For years, television has been losing viewers because the product, generally speaking, has collapsed. Reality TV has destroyed the tube. Cheap, mindless shows featuring people who should be deported rule the airwaves. Dont believe me? Well, TV Guide recently listed reality TVs most startling moments. The choices are indeed startling. Among them is Marie Osmond fainting on Dancing with the Stars. That was unforgettable, was it not? All 10 of her siblings attempted to resuscitate her. Laurie has a breast-baring meltdown on a program called Shes Got the Look. I dont know who Laurie is, but I believe she may be overexposed. Or something. Rebecca gets dentures on Breaking Amish. I am not fabricating this. I didnt even know that the Amish broke anything. Hopefully, Rebecca can clean the dentures without electricity. At least shes in better shape than Laurie. An Elvis impersonator is over-

BILL OREILLY
Commentary whelmed by memorabilia on the show Hoarders. I missed that. Im sorry. Tom DeLay dances to Wild Thing on Dancing with the Stars. That was why Marie Osmond fainted. The Osbournes examining the aftermath of Ozzys ATV accident. Does it get any better than that? Does it? Kim Kardashian weds Kris Humphries on Kims Fairytale Wedding. This was the nadir. An untalented but ambitious woman marrying a young basketball player and then divorcing him about 20 minutes later. And the guy got hurt. So why are people watching that? Disturbing question. Monica Lewinsky hosts Mr. Personality. This was an actual TV show. Insert your joke here. On a show called The Surreal Life, the guy who played Mini Me in an Austin Powers movie rides a scooter naked. Why didnt Kim Kardashian think of

that? The Queer Eye guys go nude. Did they have scooters, as well? I honestly dont know. Michelle Obama appears on The Biggest Loser. This is a weight loss program, not the Republican Convention. And finally, chef Gordon Ramsay fat-shames a Hells Kitchen contestant. All I can say is that Jackie Gleason would have taken Ramsay out. So it is beyond dispute that television is in deep trouble. These reality shows make Gilligans Island look like Macbeth. They are like unspeakable zombies destroying the entire structure of the television industry. Thank God PBS is still on the air. But even here there is some worry. Elmo has been seen hanging with the Kardashians. Its just a matter of time until someone gets engaged.

News from around Kansas

Panel questions Kansas health care system changes
TOPEKA Two days of hearings in Kansas by a national health care oversight panel raised questions about the implementation of the states KanCare system and the impact on Medicaid services. Members of the National Council on Disability which advises the president and Congress on health care issues on Thursday questioned changes in how services are provided to the disabled under KanCare. The Wichita Eagle reports that the panel asked Kansas officials to explain why some residents no longer qualified for services. Gary Blumenthal, a former Wichita legislator and social services official, questioned how services could be reduced under the states new managed-care system. Kansas privatized Medicaid services in 2012. More changes are in store starting Jan. 1, 2014, when KanCare begins taking over management of daily living services for the developmentally disabled. Blumenthal asked if KanCare was using lower standards to make decisions about the quality of care for program participants. One example of changes was presented by Finn Bullers, who suffers from diabetes and muscular dystrophy, and who relies on a respirator 24 hours a day and a wheelchair to move around. Bullers will receive fewer hours of attendant care each week under the new KanCare management. Shawn Sullivan, secretary for the Department for Aging and Disability Services, said the changes were related to how service levels were approved under the new managed-care model. The difference is preKanCare, those werent always followed and postKanCare, they are, Sullivan said. Essentially the standard is the same; its carried out by different people. Sullivan said the old system had the potential for conflict of interest because service providers were determining the level of care. Blumenthal, who was director of the Wichita social services office from 2003 to 2005, disagreed. My experience as a former SRS director was that SRS employees were very consistent and respectful of the manner in which they made decisions, he said. Critics of the KanCare system told the council that the goal appeared to be to cut $1 billion at the expense of services. They are lobbying federal regulators to deny a waiver sought by Kansas to implement the changes. Sullivan said the agency was trying to curb the growth in health care costs, not reduce services. But Tom Laing, director of Interhab, an association for the developmentally disabled and service providers, said KanCare was more about managing costs, not care. He argued that cuts in services were a result of tight budgets caused by income tax cuts enacted in 2012. They argued that Citizens for Objective Public Education and the 15 parents who joined it in challenging the standards cant show they were harmed by the state boards adoption of them in June. Among other things, the suing parties object to how evolution is handled. State lawyers said the state board provides only general supervision of local schools, and decisions about whats taught are local. Attorney Doug Patterson, representing the suing parties, said a dismissal request was expected. ly suspended Klines law license. The motion for a rehearing was filed this week by Tom Condit, who argued that investigators in Klines case were biased and facts about the former attorney generals investigations into abortions were misrepresented. The Supreme Court in October agreed with a state disciplinary panel that Kline repeatedly misled or allowed subordinates to mislead others, including a Kansas City-area grand jury, during his investigations. The unanimous decision came after disputes between the Republican and critics of his tactics. Kline is now a professor at Liberty University in Virginia.

Push for renewable energy

TOPEKA A Kansas Senate Democrat and her allies plan to push next year for policies promoting renewable energy because of concerns about climate change. A key Republican lawmaker is interested in the same issues, but he worries the policies will lead to higher electric rates. Lawrence Democrat Marci Francisco had a Statehouse news conference Friday to discuss energy issues.

Dow jumps 200 points after strong jobs report

B Y S TEVE ROTHWELL

AP Markets Writer
NEW YORK Good news was finally good news for the stock market on Friday. Stocks rose sharply in afternoon trading after a fourth straight month of solid U.S. job gains, the latest encouraging sign for the economy. The Dow Jones industrial average was up 200 points, or 1.3 percent, at 16,020 as of 1:50

p.m. Eastern time. The rise snapped a five-day losing streak, with the strengthening job market shifting the focus of investors to growth rather than the fate of the Federal Reserves huge stimulus program. Stocks had been falling this week after a series of positive economic reports made investors worry that the Fed would soon pull back on its $85 billion in monthly bond purchases, which have

kept long-term interest rates low and supported the stock market. Now that the U.S. job market is showing consistent strength, investors appear to be letting go of their earlier worry that the economy isnt ready for the Fed to start weaning the U.S. off that stimulus. The Standard & Poors 500 index rose 20 points, or 1.1 percent, to 1,805 as of 1:49 p.m. Eastern. The Nasdaq composite climbed 33, or 0.8

percent, to 4,067. Now were getting investors trading more on fundamentals and long-term earnings for next year, said Mike Serio, regional Chief Investment Officer for Wells Fargo Private Bank. There may be some backbone to the economy. Employers added 203,000 jobs last month after adding 200,000 in October, the Labor Department said Friday. Novembers job gain helped lower the unemployment

rate to 7 percent from 7.3 percent in October. All 10 sectors in the S&P 500 index rose. Industrial stocks were among the leading gainers after Fridays report showed that manufacturers added 27,000 jobs, the most since March 2012. General Electric rose 51 cents, or 1.9 percent, to $26.96. Plane maker Boeing also advanced, rising $2.43, or 1.8 percent, to $135.16. Fridays jobs news follows

other upbeat signals this week on housing, manufacturing and economic growth. Signs that the recovery is becoming more entrenched may lure more stock buyers back into the market, supporting prices, said JJ Kinahan, chief derivatives strategist at TD Ameritrade. Despite steady gains for the stock market over the last five years, many investors have remained wary of stocks after the collapse of 2008.

Barnes & Noble shares fall on SEC probe

By The Associated Press
Shares of Barnes & Noble fell on Friday after the bookseller said it was cooperating in a Securities and Exchange Commission investigation into its accounting. The struggling retailer has been trying to make a turnaround in the face of tough competition and book readers who are increasingly turning to digital media for content. The SEC told the bookseller Oct. 16 that it was investigating the companys restatement of earnings announced in July as well as an employee allegation that it improperly allocated some information-technology expenses between its Nook and retail segments. The news came in its quarterly report filed after the market closed Thursday. Barnes & Noble Inc. began reporting its Nook business sales separately from its retail business in late 2012 as it evaluated ways to become more profitable.

Students selected to join cancer research

MANHATTAN The Johnson Cancer Research Center at Kansas State University is giving 51 undergraduate students the chance to conduct cancer research projects. The centers undergraduate Cancer Research Award program promotes early participation in laboratory research, encouraging students to consider careers in cancer research and medicine while theyre still deciding what academic and professional paths to take. We are enlisting a new generation of cancer researchers and medical workers, and helping train them to do scientific research, said Rob Denell, center director and a university distinguished professor of biology. The award program, which is open to Kansas State University undergraduate students interested in doing cancerrelevant research, provides $1,000 awards to about 50 students a year, and $1,000 per student for research expenses. These are outstanding students working closely with faculty on real research projects, and some, as weve seen in the past, will undoubtedly go on to be top scientists and physicians, Denell said. Students applied for the awards by co-writing research proposals with faculty mentors affiliated with the center. The awardees conduct their research in the mentors laboratories in the spring semester. The students will be recognized in the spring at a banquet attended by their families, center supporters and university faculty and administrators. The center also provides other undergraduate scholarships and support for graduate student and faculty research and training. All of these programs are funded through private gifts. More information is available at http://cancer.kstate.edu or by calling 9785) 532-6705. Cancer Research Award winners are: Ashton Allen, senior in biology, Junction City.

The Daily Union. Saturday, Dec. 7, 2013
By The Associated Press
and its chief executive, Ren Zhengfei, has said the company has decided to abandon the U.S. market. Moran, who had a security clearance granting him access to sensitive materials, was forced to withdraw from those roles after Rep. Frank Wolf, R-Va., complained in September to the intelligence director, James Clapper, that Morans work on an international advisory council for Huawei compromises his ability to advise your office. It is inconceivable how someone serving on Huaweis board would also be allowed to advise the intelligence community on foreign investments in the U.S., Wolf wrote. Moran, who earlier had declined to discuss the matter, said in a statement Friday to the AP, I was totally transparent. He said he told the National Intelligence Council in 2010 about his membership on Huaweis advisory panel. I complied with all conflict of interest reports and procedures of the National Intelligence Council, Moran said.

Moran criti- foreign nation-state already known to be a major perpetrator of cyber espionage, the committee wrote in its report. Huaweis vice president for external affairs, William Plummer, declined to discuss Morans resignation, but said U.S suspicions about Huawei have created a political smokescreen. He said the controversy amounted to a political game thats holding Huawei hostage to somehow gain leverage with the Chinese government. Huawei is no threat to U.S. networks and data. Plummer said Moran and other advisers discuss trade, policy and commerce with Huaweis executives. Earlier this year, as a condition of allowing SoftBank Corp. to buy Sprint for $20.1 billion, the Obama administration forced the companies to promise not to use Huawei equipment and seek approval for future vendors. In 2007, Huawei joined with Bain Capital, the private equity firm founded by Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney, to buy 3Com Corp., an American computer equipment firm. Romney had left the firm by then.

Chinese firm paid US govt intelligence adviser

WASHINGTON A longtime adviser to the U.S. Director of National Intelligence has resigned after the government learned he has worked since 2010 as a paid consultant for Huawei Technologies Ltd., the Chinese technology company the U.S. has condemned as an espionage threat, The Associated Press has learned. Theodore H. Moran, a respected expert on Chinas international investment and professor at Georgetown University, had served since 2007 as adviser to the intelligence directors advisory panel on foreign investment in the United States. Moran also was an adviser to the National Intelligence Council, a group of 18 senior analysts and policy experts who provide U.S. spy agencies with judgments on important international issues. The case highlights the ongoing fractious relationship between the U.S. government and Huawei, Chinas leading developer of telephone and Internet infrastructure, which has been condemned in the U.S. as a potential national security threat. Huawei has aggressively disputed this, The bid collapsed amid national security concerns cited by Congress and the U.S. Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States, an inter-agency panel that scrutinizes financial moves by foreign firms inside the U.S. Last month, two Senate committee chairmen asked Clapper about the potential national security threat posed by Huaweis growing partnership with South Korean telecom firms. The intelligence directors office would not describe Morans duties for its panel on foreign investment or the National Intelligence Council. It was not immediately clear whether Morans previous work was being reviewed for possible bias or if the government was investigating whether other intelligence advisers also may have been paid by foreign companies. It also did not explain why Moran was forced to step down now, three years since he had been hired by Huawei and after he had disclosed his affiliation as early as 2011 in biographical material published as part of his participation in a conference in Vienna.

The State Fire Marshals Office and the United States Department of Labor Division of Mine Safety and Health also are investigating the incident.

Chamber to create Legislative Action Committee

We want people to be aware of what politics means to us, he said Friday. A lot of people shy away because they dont understand. The people Weigand is looking for to fill the new group wont be those who shy away from politics but want to help others, too. Itll be those who are kind of political junkies who stay in touch with whats going on at the statehouse, he said. Anybody interested in becoming part of the committee is invited to attend its first meeting 10 a.m. Tuesday at the chamber offices, located at 222 W. Sixth St. While the committee will keep a close connection with representatives and candidates, it wont make recommendations on how people should vote or endorse any particular candidates, Weigand said. However, the committee sometimes may recommend the chamber board of directors consider a specific stance on a local political issue. Most of the issues the committee concerns itself with will be at the local or state levels, Weigand said. But some items of discussion could have national implications. Weigand mentioned recent examples such as the wind energy tax credit and Keystone Pipeline,

The junior picked apart the Blue Jays defense from behind the arc, knocking down five treys on his way to a gamehigh 18 points. We knew he was there but we did a poor job of executing, Battle said. Thats not anything that surprised us, we knew that was coming. We knew that we had to close down on him, knew we had to play him tight but for one reason or another he got loose.

Junction City didnt do itself any favors. The Blue Jays found themselves in early foul trouble, preventing the first unit from finding a rhythm offensively.

MANHATTAN Entering the contest, questions swirled around the Kansas State basketball team (5-3) about who their go-to players are. The start to the season had been anything but smooth, with the Wildcats dropping winnable games against Northern Colorado and Charlotte. But junior forward Thomas Gipson did his best to answer the questions Thursday night against Mississippi (6-1). With a 31-29 lead coming out of the half, the Wildcats immediately got the ball down low to Gipson. The first trip down he got the free throw line so Kansas State went back to him again. This time, he lowered his head as he drove to the hoop, then pulled up and sank a short jumper despite contact from Mississippis Dwight Coleby. Gipson made the free throw and Kansas State went on to grind out a 61-58 win. We wanted to come out in the first five minutes and punch them in the mouth before they did that to us, Gipson said after the game. I think my and-1 early got us going especially for the first five minutes. Please see Gipson, 3B

City senior Jhade Gray found himself in the middle of a dogfight in the 126-pound division of a dual match with Chapman Thursday. Grays opponent, Cole Satterfield, scored an early take down and it took Gray most of the remaining time in the first round just to earn an escape. But in the second period, Gray, who started down, quickly freed himself before then scoring two points and the lead for gaining position on Satterfield. The senior then scored a near-fall and rode out a strong late effort to hold onto a 6-3 victory, earning three team points for the Blue Jays in route to a 52-15 victory.

The three points dont seem huge given the final tally. But at the time the Blue Jays needed every point to hold onto the lead against a feisty Chapman team desperate to claw its way back into the match. Jhades been wres-

tling for a long time and I think that experience kicked in, Junction City coach Robert Laster said. I like to see that, guys that come from behind, it shows they have a lot of heart when they do that. Senior Jeren McCall also found himself in a tight match against Chapmans Stone Hayden. After taking a 6-2 lead into the final period, McCall held off a late charge by Hayden to emerge with a 7-5 win.

Junction Citys Micah Felton (right) wrestles against Chapmans Zach Witt

I thought (McCall) wrestled well because Hayden is an experienced wrestler and one of their top wrestlers, Laster said. I thought he did what we needed to do to get the win. Junction City dispatched Clay Center 63-15 in its first dual of the night. After falling behind 12-6, the Jays ripped off seven consecutive wins by Gary Joint, Lake Deam, Gabe Padilla, Gray, Alex McCready, Jake Bazan and Xavier DeGuzman. The double dual match, where Junction City, Chapman and Clay Center each went head-to-head with one another, also gave some younger Blue Jays a taste of varsity competition.

Another Snyder turnaround

B Y E THAN P AdWAY

sports.beat@thedailyunion.net
MANHATAN Kansas State football coach Bill Snyder sealed his reputation as a master of turnarounds long before the start of the 2013 season. Its well documented how he transformed the Wildcats from cupcake to contender in his first stint in Manhattan 24 years ago and once again after he returned to the program following a three-year retirement. This season, Snyder can add another turnaround to his resume as he has guided Kansas State to bowl eligibility with a 5-1 record during the second half of the season after

the Wildcats started the season 2-4. Snyder said the key was persistence. If you keep on doing the right things, positive things will happen, he said at his weekly press conference Thursday. Thats true in your life, thats true in mine, thats true in anybodys life and certainly is applicable to athletics. The road for the 2013 Wildcats was never easy. Kansas State faced early challenges as its first three conference games were against the three teams who all enter the final week of the season with a chance to grab the Big 12 title. Junior defensive end Ryan Mueller couldnt recall a spe-

cific moment when the fortunes turned for the Cats. Instead, he placed the praise on a collective team effort. All the guys on this team, for the most part, have been to a bowl game before, Mueller said. And we dont know what its like to sit at home at this time of year and realize that the seasons over. Its just something we didnt want to happen. In that stretch, Mueller has emerged as a wrecking force on the defensive line, tying a school record with 11.5 sacks. Much of what Mueller achieved was through his own work ethic, but he doesnt consider himself blue collar due to the fact that he grew up in a Please see Snyder, 2B

BOXING

The Kansas City Royals have acquired outfielder Norichika Aoki from Milwaukee to be their leadoff hitter. Milwaukee received lefthander Will Smith, who spent most of the past couple seasons shuffling between Kansas City and Triple-A Omaha and between the bullpen and the starting rotation. Brewers general manager Doug Melvin said Thursday hes been watching Smith for a couple years. He called Smith a 24-year-old, big, physical lefthander who we feel can be part of our staff. Royals general manager Dayton Moore said on a conference call with reporters that he envisions Aoki batting at the top of the order, just as he did with the Brewers. Aoki hit .286 with eight homers, 37 RBIs and 20 steals last season. Aoki gives Kansas City a prototypical leadoff hitter, which will allow left fielder Alex Gordon who has more power to slide down in the order and have more chances to drive in runs. Aoki, who turns 32 next month, also ranked second in the majors with 40 infield hits, and .339 against left-handed pitching, the best average by a left-handed hitter in the big leagues. He also struck out just 40 times in 674 plate appearances.

Browns quarterback Jason Campbell is practicing for the second straight day, increasing the likelihood he will start at New England on Sunday. Campbell missed last weeks game with a concussion sustained on Nov. 24 against Pittsburgh. He was cleared to practice for the first time since the injury on Thursday and only had to get permission from an independent neurologist before he can play. Browns coach Rob Chudzinski is expected to provide an update on Campbells status following practice. Campbell was replaced last week by Brandon Weeden, who sustained a concussion in Clevelands loss to Jacksonville. With Campbell and Weeden recovering, the Browns signed free agent Caleb Hanie earlier this week. Last week, they signed Alex Tanney off Dallas practice squad last week. Hanie started four games for Chicago in 2011. Tanney has never taken a snap in an NFL regular-season game.

shots from downtown. But the deficit proved too much for Thornton to shoot his team back into the game. Thornton added another bucket in the fourth quarter to lead Junction City with eight points. Junction City switched from its 2-3 zone to a man defense in an attempt to apply more pressure to the Lions and force turnovers. But when the Blue Jays pressure had opportunities, the offense couldnt finish around the rim. We struggled to score tonight as well, Battle said. We went down and missed free throws, missed lay-ups and that team is just too good offensively for you to do that. Battle couldnt explain why his team struggled from the free-throw line. He said his team shot real well in camp and the practices leading up to the game. Junction City returns to action next Friday when the team travels to Great Bend. I think every experience that you go out on the court is a learning experience, Battle said. I think the one thing that our kids need to learn is that right from the get-go, youve got to be able to play.

KUs month-long road trek continues

B Y D AVE S KRETTA

Associated Press
LAWRENCE Kansas coach Bill Self freely admits he is to blame for the nearly monthlong trek that his young, impressionable bunch of Jayhawks is trying to weather early in the season. After all, he is the one who signed off on the schedule. It seemed like a good idea back when he was piecing it together. The Jayhawks would start by hitting the Bahamas for a tournament during the Thanksgiving weekend, and then play tough road games against Colorado and Florida before facing New Mexico in Kansas City, Mo. Now, after a sluggish three games at the Battle 4 Atlantis, the No. 6 Jayhawks are trying to catch their breath with a trip to the high altitude of Boulder, Colo., up next. I dont know who did our scheduling. I dont really understand, Self said facetiously. Its probably not the wisest thing to have done. But you know what? Well come together. The Atlantis trip didnt serve its purpose for coming together, so hopefully well do a much better job in Boulder.

said. We already know who were playing next year but we dont know who were playing in the bowl game. Kansas State will be making its fourth consecutive bowl appearance, yet the Wildcats are looking for the first bowl victory since the 2003 Holiday Bowl. The bowl game losing streak has left a sour taste in the players mouths. I want to end the season on a positive note and understand what that locker room feels like instead of losing the bowl game and watching the other team pour Gatorade on their coach and wear those championship hats, Mueller said. I want to pour Gatorade on coach Snyder.

against Chapmans Wyatt Pryor. I just wanted to get the take down, rack up the points and then pin him, Joint said. The win put Junction City in high spirits as it heads to a tournament at Gardner Edgerton. Junior Gabe Padilla said it was a good start to the season and a solid confidence boost. In addition to some of the top talent in Kansas, teams from Oklahoma and Iowa also will be in attendance this weekend. Laster said the key will be for his team to score big points and not allow big points against before he emphasized how important backdoor scoring through third and fourth place finishes are. I told our guys this is a quest, he said. Its a long season so its all about improvement.

Despite giving up a significant height advantage, the Wildcats hustled to every rebound and manage to grab five more rebounds than Ole Miss. K-State came up especially big on the offensive glass, snatching 16 offensive boards to keep possessions alive. Were undersized and it always has to be a team rebound, Gipson said. During the game, three of us go for the same rebound and it ends up going out of bounds or something but it gets real scrappy, were all competing for a rebound. Freshman forward Wesley Iwundu led the Wildcats with 10 rebounds while Gipson and freshman guard Marcus Foster eached scored 15 points. In the paint, the Rebels had no answer to Gipson. He was a man, Mississippi coach Andy Kennedy said after his teams loss. When you are coming in, his size and his girth, we talked about staying higher than him defensively because if he ducks you in his body on your body it negates any ability to try to challenge him at the rim. Defensively, the Wildcats protected their basket with a passion. The physical game prevented either team from finding a consistent offensive rhythm. Mississippis flamboyant Marshall Henderson spent much of the game visibly expressing his frustration. However, he had a shot to win the game with time winding down and the Rebels trailing by two with time running out. Henderson came around a screen and despite being deep behind the three point line and smothered by Kansas States Will Spradling, decided to attempt to silence Bramlage Coliseum with one fell swoop. Instead his ill-advised shot sailed wide of the basket and into the arms of Iwundu. Spradling and Iwundu blanketed Henderson for most of the night, holding him to just 2-13 from 3-point range for the night. Guarding him is a tough task, Iwundu said. You know he is getting the ball, and you know he is going to put the ball in the air. You have to be alert on defense at all times, and just be tough with him. After struggling in November, Kansas State earned its third consecutive win and first against another school from a major conference. The Wildcats will try and extend their streak when South Dakota visits to Manhattan Tuesday. This is a huge win for us there is no doubt, Kansas State coach Bruce Weber said. We did not play very well and I am not sure that we coached very well. We fought and toughed it out.

US winds up in World Cup group of death

B Y RO N A L D B L U M

Associated Press
The U.S. drew a daunting task for next years World Cup: difficult opponents, tropical venues and a wearying 9,000-mile zigzag journey across Brazil. The Americans wound up with the potentially punishing group they feared and will play Ghana, Portugal and Germany next June as they try to achieve a U.S. first: reaching the knockout phase twice in a row. While Ghana eliminated the Americans in 2006 and 2010, the Black Stars wont do it again. The U.S. opens its seventh straight World Cup appearance against Ghana on June 16 at Natal. The U.S. meets Portugal and 2008 FIFA Player of the Year Cristiano Ronaldo six days later in the Amazon rain forest city Manaus. The Americans have just three off days to recover before closing Group G on June 26 in Recife against three-time champion Germany. I think we have the quality, if we play our best ball, to get out of the group, U.S. captain Clint Dempsey said after Fridays draw set the eight four-nation groups. You cant think about, Am I the favorite? Am I the underdog? Whats it going to be like playing in the heat? Whats it going to be like with the travel? Those are factors that come into it, but at the end of the day both teams have to deal with it. After having the shortest groupplay travel in South Africa, the U.S. will have the longest in Brazil. The Americans will be based in Sao Paulo and face trips of 1,436 miles to Natal, 1,832 miles to Manaus and 1,321 miles to Recife. They will play all three games in the tropics, with the second and third matches in the afternoon. I think guys who have played in MLS are used to taking 3,000mile trips across the country to play, midfielder Sacha Kljestan said.

The U.S. group has the best average FIFA world ranking. Odds on the Americans winning their first World Cup more than doubled after the draw, from 60-1 to 150-1. Its definitely one of the tougher groups, if not the toughest, but at the same time, this is what the World Cups all about. You go there to play against the best, American forward Jozy Altidore said during a telephone interview with The Associated Press. I think the boys will be excited, will be up for it. U.S. coach Jurgen Klinsmann, who replaced Bob Bradley 2 1/2 years ago, played for Germanys 1990 World Cup championship team and coached his native country to third place at home in the 2006 tournament, commuting to Europe from his California house in Orange County. It couldnt get any more difficult or any bigger, he said at the draw in Costa do Sauipe, Brazil. Its a real challenge. And well take it. Well take it on, and hopefully were going to surprise some people there. The U.S. and South Korea were the last remaining teams in draw pot three. While the Americans landed in a group with an average FIFA ranking of 11.25, South Korea wound up in Group H, creating a group with the poorest average at 28.25. I think the teams mentality is that we can go and play with anybody, American defender Matt Besler said. Now were going to have to prove it. Germany beat the U.S. 2-0 in its 1998 World Cup opener in Paris with Klinsmann setting up the first goal and scoring the second then edged the Americans 1-0 on a controversial goal in the 2002 quarterfinal in South Korea. Die Mannschaft is coached by Klinsmanns former assistant, Joachim Loew. The Americans beat a second-tier German roster 4-3 in a June exhibition at Washington. With Jurgen Klinsmann, they

The lot of the United States is drawn during the draw ceremony World Cup Friday in Costa do Sauipe near Salvador, Brazil.
have another mentality, Loew said. I learned a lot from Jurgen, so this is special. Ranked 14th in the world, the U.S. has alternated quick exits with advancement since returning to soccers showcase in 1990 after a 40-year absence. After the draw four years ago, one British paper used a headline EASY for England, Algeria, Slovenia and the Yanks, and The Sun called it the best English group since the Beatles. The Americans wound up atop a group for the first time since the first World Cup in 1930, and England advanced as the second-place nation. This time, second-ranked Germany and fifth-ranked Portugal are the favorites to reach the second round. If the U.S. qualifies for the round of 16, it would face Belgium, Russia, Algeria or South Korea from Group H. As for the rest of the field, Brazil, Cameroon, Croatia, Mexico were put in Group A; Australia, Chile, Netherlands and Spain in Group B; Colombia, Greece, Ivory Coast and Japan in Group C; Costa Rica, England, Italy and Uruguay in Group D; Ecuador, France, Honduras and Switzerland in Group E; and Argentina, BosniaHerzegovina, Iran and Nigeria in Group F. The U.S. will feel pressure to open with a win against 24thranked Ghana. The Black Stars defeated the Americans 2-1 in the 2006 group stage and by the same score in overtime in the round of 16 at the last World Cup in South Africa. Theyre the team that beat us, kind of crushed our dreams of being in the World Cup, so I think were due a little bit of luck and were due a win against them, Dempsey said. At the 2002 tournament, the U.S. opened with a 3-2 upset of Portugal after taking a shocking threegoal lead in the first 36 minutes. Several of the American players are of German descent, so all three matchups are intriguing. The U.S. will train at home from mid-May until early June and plans a series of exhibition games, which likely will include England as an opponent, before heading to Brazil. Everybody is saying that this is the Group of Death and its such a hard challenge, former American captain John Harkes said. I still think that the U.S. can rise to the occasion.

Dear Annie: Since childhood, my mother has told me she never wanted me. I now have two children of my own. At one point, I became homeless, and my parents took me in. But I became ill and needed major surgery. While recovering, my brothers son came over often and would constantly pick on my sons. My parents did nothing. One day, I heard my youngest son screaming, and when I checked, I saw my 10-yearold nephew hurting him and trying to molest him. I confronted my parents and my brother about allowing this behavior to go on, and Mom said to forget about it. Dad said nothing. Now my mother has disowned me and will have nothing to do with my children. I have no other family, and this hurts. How can I get my parents to admit that my bully of a nephew has a serious problem? On the Edge of a Nervous Breakdown Dear Edge: Your nephew does indeed have a problem, but you cannot force your parents to address it. Your job is to protect your children. If that means keeping them away from your brother, your parents, your nephew or anyone else, then that is what you do. If the nephew molested your son, you could report the situation to the authorities. Please look for family in your community and church. There are plenty of older adults who would love to be surrogate grandparents for your sons and would treat them with the caring and consideration they deserve. Dear Annie: I taught in the Maryland public school system for many years before retiring 10 years ago. Every year at Christmastime, the students gave me Christmas ornaments. Some were homemade from individual students, and others were large and from the whole class. Of course, I thanked each of them. But as the years went on, my appreciation grew as I took them out each season to decorate my tree. I wrote their names on the ornaments, so each year I am able to think lovingly of those children. They continue to make my Christmas special. To their parents, I thank you for allowing me to teach your children. Hopefully, those children will have fond memories about some way in which I made them feel special. They were certainly special to me.

They were one of the reasons I loved to teach. I still think of them and wonder what kind of young adults theyve become. It was a privilege to help shape their young minds and whet their appetites for learning. I wish them all well and hope they enjoy much success in life. Merry Christmas and happy Hanukkah! With much love from their 5th grade teacher Mrs. Helen Gromadzki, The Villages, Fla. Dear Helen: Your letter was so sweet, we had to print it. We hope all of your former students have a chance to see it and possibly reconnect to let you know how their lives have turned out. Dear Annie: I read the letter from Hurting in Miami, who said her friend of 20 years married some wealthy young man and then cut off contact. You mentioned in your response that her new husband may be controlling and trying to isolate his new bride. I want to emphasize this point, especially because the woman is young and may have no experience with this type of controlling person. Please tell Miami to try to keep in touch with her friend by email or phone and let her know she is there for her. This same thing happened to a dear friend. Her new husband was wonderful to her before marriage, but afterward turned into a control freak who isolated her from her family and friends. We were trying to get her out of this toxic situation, but before we could do anything, he threatened her with a gun, and it accidentally went off, and she died. Cautious in Michigan

Horoscope
ARIES (March 21 April 19). Collective problem solving is a feature of the day. You dont need to know the answer to chime in. Each idea builds on the next. The realizations will belong as much to the group as they do to any single person. TAURUS (April 20 May 20). Archimedes said, Give me a lever long enough and a fulcrum on which to place it, and I shall move the world. You will be searching for a point of leverage today. Once you figure out how to position yourself, youll be persuasive. GEMINI (May 21 June 21). Remember the times when you put on a brave face even though you were feeling sad and afraid? Someone who is having a hard time is doing the same for you now. Be sensitive to what is really going on. CANCER (June 22 July 22). Youre likely to meet salty characters, and youll enjoy them. A captain who has navigated rough waters has more to teach than one who has known only smooth sailing. LEO (July 23 Aug. 22). You dont expect life to be fair, but you do expect your loved ones to hang in there with you through the inequities. Today youll model the principle for a friend of yours who is going through a hard time. VIRGO (Aug. 23 Sept. 22). People pay attention to what interests them. Instead of fighting it, youll use this knowledge to your advantage, wrapping your message in the packages your loved ones find the most appealing. LIBRA (Sept. 23 Oct. 23). If you dont know what you are getting out of an exchange, you wont want to go through with it. For the other persons sake, figure out whats in it for you. SCORPIO (Oct. 24 Nov. 21). Your conscience is stricter than the laws or social rules of our time. When you step out of bounds, your conscience makes noise much more alarming than the chirping of a cricket. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 Dec. 21). Put your projects on the schedule, or they wont get accomplished. If you dont fill in the blanks, someone else will. Its better to be alone than to be with people you dont like. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 Jan. 19). Youll be reminded of your intellectual standards. A beautiful face isnt attractive to you unless theres also a good brain behind it. You could find what youre looking for in a Virgo or an Aquarius. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 Feb. 18). A certain mysterious and attractive someone has been on your mind. Though difficult to get to know, this person will be wonderful to have in your life, so be persistent. It will pay off. PISCES (Feb. 19 March 20). Pop artist Andy Warhol once remarked that two people kissing always look like fish. And if those two people are you and another Pisces, the kiss will give you a feeling of being mutually caught.

Easy-bake oven and christmas toys help young children
H EAThER H AGEDOR N Toys like the Easy-Bake Oven, play irons and even dolls were created to teach young children, particularly young girls, how to become the perfect housewife. And, while we might associate the Easy-Bake Oven with hot pink or avocado green plastic from the 1960s and 80s, toy ovens actually have a much longer history than plastic. As early as the late 1800s, child sized stoves were available purchase. These stoves were miniature versions of popular models of their day, which meant they were made of steel or cast iron, stove pipe and a place to add real hot coals or burning embers inside. Cooking can be done upon this range, proclaimed one ad from 1898. Yes, small children of the 1800s were playing with toys heated by actual coals and, in some cases, flames. A far cry from our carefully incased light-bulb units.

Museum Musings
For those of us who were born in the latter half of the 19th century, the EasyBake Oven was always a highly requested toy on Christmas lists. I remember, when I first received my Easy-Bake Oven (a hot pink toy that looked just like my parents microwave), I would spend hours and hours mixing the cakes and cookie mixes with water, pouring them into their little metal pans and carefully inserting them into the machine, and then watch through the tiny opening as my treats cooked, as if by magic, by the heat of a single light bulb. What I didnt realize, as a young child of eight or nine, was that my EasyBake Oven was not an original idea, but had evolved from generations of little girls learning to cook at their mothers sides, not for fun as I did, but out of necessity.

An article in the Junction City Union on Dec. 17, 1930 recounted toys available in local toy departments including toy percolators, stoves, irons and washing machines that could be operated just like mothers were in abundance.
In the 1927 Sears and Roebuck Catalog available to Geary County residents, two types of real-to-life toy stoves were available for little girls: The Fancy Large Nickel Plated Cast Iron Stove, complete with stove pipe, coal scuttle and draft damper; and the more modern Combination Gas Range and Stove with blue trimmings. The advertisement for the new gas stove read: A new Stove, just like Mothers and it truly was, with four gas burners, iron skillet, dinner kettle and lifter. But there was a purpose behind the danger. Little girls were taught at a young age how to stoke a fire, safely cook with dangerous materials and then clean up after themselves through their miniature stoves. With the rise of electricity in the 20th century, these toy stoves evolved, though they still relied on children being cautious enough not to burn themselves, or their house, with the heating elements that allowed children to boil a pot of tea, or cook a tiny cake. An article in the Junction City Union on Dec. 17, 1930 recounted toys available in local toy departments including toy percolators, stoves, irons and washing machines that could be operated just like mothers were in abundance. These stoves featured an electric cord that could be plugged into an outlet, hot coils, and a fully working oven, which could get up to 500 degrees. These heavy-duty childsized stoves fell out of favor when World War II required all steel production to go toward the war effort. Children were required to use their imagination during the sparse war years, and mud pies were back on the menu. But by the 1950s, the war had ended, plastic had hit the market and mass production was starting to take off in the toy industry. Suzy Homemaker baking kits, with prepackaged mixes and plastic ovens took off, and while these still looked like the grownup ovens of the 50s, they had lost some of the fire power of the earlier brands. Still, Suzy Homemaker was too dangerous and in 1963, toy company Kenner introduced the world to the Easy-Bake Oven. Hands-off cooking and safety for junior bakers helped the company sell their new invention and children nationwide were able to slide their tiny cre-

ations into the stove from the side, without coming close to the heating element. The play cook stove evolved further in the latter half of the 19th century, and the design changed from a full size oven and range, to the popular microwave look in the 1970s and 80s. Each design evolved to allow little girls, and boys, to cook just like their parents. Come into the Geary County Historical Society to see an early 1930s electric toy stove. Scorch marks and a worn stove top indicate that a child cooked on this tiny toy, perhaps boiling a pot of tea for her dolls. And, of course, the evolution of the toy stove wouldnt be complete without a 1980s hot pink EasyBake Oven. Both can be found in the Playtime exhibit through 2014.

The holiday gift guide: laptops

LOTS OF HIGH-END lAPTOPS TO PICK FROM
B Y B REE FOWLER

AP Technology Writer
NEW YORK Whether youre looking for something thin and light, or want a tablet that performs like a laptop, theres plenty to choose from if youre willing to spend a bit more for a high-end laptop computer. Regardless of how much cash you have, you need to take into account the needs of the person you are shopping for. Is a super-sharp touch screen important? What about a fast processor? How much weight is the gift recipient willing to cart around? This gift guide covers laptops with starting prices of more than $1,000, including a class of thin, light Windows laptops known as ultrabooks. Prices listed are manufacturers suggestions, and you can often shop around for deals. Dell Inc.s XPS 12, starts at $1,000: What sets this ultrabook apart from others is the way it converts into a tablet. Basically, you pop the screen out of its frame, flip it around and then close the laptop. The move puts the screen on the outside and the keyboard on the inside.

Its a quick and easy switch. But because the keyboard remains connected, youre not dropping any of its 3.4 pounds. While reasonable for a laptop, thats about triple the weight of many full-sized tablets currently on the market. The XPS might be good for someone who needs a fairly powerful laptop for work, but still wants to kick back in bed without a keyboard getting in the way. Apple Inc.s MacBook Pro, high-resolution, 13-inch version starts at $1,299: Theres no touch screen, something that Apple opposes in laptops, but it does offer nearly the same crystal-clear resolution as the latest iPads. The screen is among the best at this price. And of course, theres no Windows 8, an operating system that some people find confusing to use. The MacBook uses Apples Mac system and integrates well with other Apple products, including iPhones, iPads and Apple TVs. Two price cuts this year totaling $400 brings the 13-inch model to $1,299, just $200 more than the lesspowerful MacBook Air of that size. For the 15-inch version, youll be paying at least $1,999. Sony Corp.s Vaio Pro

13, starts at $1,250: The Vaio is exceptionally thin when closed and weighs about 2.3 pounds, making it the lightest 13-inch model I tested. Part of that comes from its carbon-fiber construction, which improves durability while reducing weight. But

Lenovo Group Ltd.s Yoga 2 Pro, starts at $1,199: Like its name implies, the Yoga is very flexible. Besides the traditional laptop mode, you can bend its 13-inch screen all the way back to close it, so the screen is on the front and the keyboard is exposed on

and the screen leans back at whatever angle you like. Thats good for watching videos while kicking back on the couch or in bed. The laptop itself feels thin, light and relatively sturdy. Although it weighs more than the Sony Vaio, its slightly thinner. The rubber edges that give the laptop traction when its in tent mode are a nice touch. And if you want your laptop to stand out, the Yoga comes in orange besides the more traditional silver and gray combination. Samsung Electronic Co.s ATIV Book 9 Plus, starts at $1,400: This was one of the more beautiful laptops I looked at. From its metal construction to its high-definition

it also made the laptop feel cheap and plastic-like. The small size also comes with sacrifices. Sony says battery life is up to 6.5 hours, considerably less than other laptops at this price. This might be good for someone who wants to get work done on the road while traveling light. You can save $100 by going with an 11-inch model.

the back. In that configuration, it works like a tablet. You can also bend it into a triangle, laying one edge on a flat surface and having the display angled like a tent. This lets you use it as a tablet, but keep it upright. Its particularly helpful when youre crunched for space. Or, you can flip it almost all the way around, so that the keyboard is on the bottom

touch screen, it screams elegance and class. The laptop is super thin, at 0.54 inches thick, but weighs just over 3 pounds, similar to several others I tested. It feels heavy relative to its compact size. Battery life clocked in at 7.5 hours, considerably less than other laptops at that price. But the trade-off is a super-sharp screen that offers a higher resolution

than the MacBook Pro, which already has among the best displays at that price. You might like this if you want to impress the other mobile workers at the coffee house, dont want a lot of bulk and dont feel the need to replace your tablets. Microsoft Surface 2 Pro, starts at $899, cover with movable keys brings it to $1,029. Ok, so this isnt actually a laptop, but it does a lot of the same work without the bulk of one. The Surface Pro 2 is a more powerful version of Microsofts Surface 2 tablet, and the company is pushing both as replacements for laptops. Just like a PC laptop, it runs Windows 8 and gives you access to all the Microsoft Office programs. This tablets kickstand has been redesigned to include two positions important because that now makes it practical to actually use on your lap. Youre better off paying the extra $10 for the $130 Type Cover 2; the keys on the Touch Cover 2 dont move and are harder to use. Looking for something cheaper? The $449 Surface 2 runs a lightweight version of Windows 8.1 called RT. But that tablet works only with apps designed specifically for it, not the broader pool of programs available for Windows PCs.

FIVE SHOPPING APPS TO GET YOU THE BEST PRICES

B Y JOSE PH P ISANI

The holiday gift guide: shopping apps

pon that works only online. So I left and went to Gaps website. RetailMeNots 35 percent off coupon code saved me $20.26 on a $57.89 purchase. If you create an account, you can browse for deals on RetailMeNots website. Any coupons you save on the website will show up on the app. They will delete when they expire. One annoyance: According to RetailMeNot, about a third of the coupons are uploaded by users. Employees go through them to make sure that they work, but some bad ones get through. About a month ago, I went to Gap with a coupon that didnt have an expiration date. But after the cashier called a manager, I was told it expired a week earlier. RetailMeNot says such problems are rare. To me, the savings from this app is worth the small inconveniences. Amazon and RedLaser (Available for Android, iPhone, Windows) Many retailers, including Best Buy Co. Inc., Target Inc. and Toys R Us Inc., are promising to match cheaper prices you find online, hoping youll buy on the spot and not wait until you can get to Amazons website. To take advantage of that, install Amazon.com Inc.s app on your phone. You can scan barcodes of items in the retail store and see how much it costs on Amazon. If you find a better price, show the app to a cashier. Ive gotten cashiers at Best Buy, Target and Toys R Us to knock off as much as $10 on different items.

AP Business Writer
NEW YORK Looking to save a few bucks while you shop for holiday gifts? Dont hit the mall without these shopping apps. Some let you search for coupons, while others tell you whether youre better off buying online instead. And one keeps track of all those promotional fliers that do little good if you forget them at home. I tested more than a dozen shopping apps in the process getting some of my holiday shopping done early. I narrowed the list to five because using them all at once can get time consuming. You want to beat others to the best deals, after all. Unfortunately, If you prefer to shop at mom and pop stores, you wont find any deals here. But if you dont mind big retailers, these apps offer a hefty selection of deals from them. The ones I chose are all free, easy to use and beautifully designed. RetailMeNot (Available for Android, iPhone) This

Tashalee Rodriguez, of Boston, uses a smart phone app while shopping at Macys Friday, Nov. 23 in downtown Boston.
app lets you search for coupons from your favorite stores, so you can instantly save 10 percent, 20 percent or even more on a single item or your entire shopping cart. You can scroll through the list of hot deals on the home page or search for a specific store. You can add your favorite stores to a list to see the deals more quickly. The app uses the phones location information to narrow the deals to the ones near you. Im not saying these apps are problem-free. At Toys R Us, the cashier wasnt able to scan a 15 percent off coupon. RetailMeNot says many retailers have outdated scanners, but most will honor the discount anyway. That happened at Toys R Us after the cashier called for a manager. Getting the discount took longer than expected, and some people in line behind gave me bad looks. But the deal was worth it. The app lets you see both in-store and online deals. After walking into a Gap retail store, I found a cou-

Homebound Delivery is provided by the Friends of the Library and includes door-to-door delivery of library materials. Title selection is based upon reading preferences discussed with a member of the reference staff and delivery is scheduled according to the needs of the patron and the Friends volunteer. Those eligible for this service include patrons with short- or long-term disabilities and those who are no longer able to drive or who are recovering from an injury, illness or surgery. Patrons with other mobility issues related to aging and/or medical needs are also eligible whether these are temporary or ongoing. Homes with new

Librarians report babies could also be added to the list for juvenile as well as adult materials. Interested patrons can call the library at 238-4311 and ask for the reference desk. The staff will talk them through a form that includes an estimate for the length of time the service will be needed, the best days and times for delivery, and an emergency contact. In addition, they will also discuss the patrons reading preferences including nonfiction topic areas and fiction genres. Talking Books is another free library service to print disabled patrons who are unable to read or use standard printed materials as a result of temporary or permanent visual or physical impairments. In it Braille and recorded materials & playback equipment are loaned by mail without charge to eligible patrons. This includes those who

are experiencing blindness, low vision, the inability to hold a book and turn pages, and reading disabilities of physical origin such as dyslexia and attention deficit disorder. Talking Books is one of several library programs utilizing adaptive and assistive technology. It is administered by the State Library of Kansas through an office located in Emporia. Locally, our library can provide program information and application forms, a sample player and a few titles that we will loan to prospective patrons to test drive before making their enrollment decisions. The collection contains a wide variety of fiction and non-fiction titles for both children and adults, including best-sellers, mysteries, romance, biographies, Christian fiction, science fiction, poetry, humor, westerns and suspense. A complete list of titles is available from the Kansas Talking Books Library Catalog, the link for which can be found on the state library web site at http://webopac. klas.com/kstb. In addition to individuals, institutions serving eligible patrons can also enroll in and utilize the services of the Talking

Services included in the Talking Books Program:

Books program. This includes nursing homes, hospitals and assisted living facilities as well as schools that have at least one eligible student. Such local facilities could also be the recipients of large print book collections loaned by the Dorothy Bramlage Public Library. These are rotating collections where new titles are delivered monthly and the previous batch is returned to the library. Whether your friend or family members reading needs have changed to require print that is a little bigger, or to listen rather than see, the library has a service that can keep them turning the pages all winter long.

Mandela inspired music, movies, poems

By The Associated Press
NEW YORK Heroic in his deeds, graceful in his manner, sainted in his image, Nelson Mandela long served as both cause and muse in the entertainment community. From the 1960s, when he was a political prisoner and South Africa was under the laws of apartheid, right up to recent times, when the racist laws of the land had fallen and he was among the worlds most admired people, Mandela inspired concerts, songs, poems, fiction and movies. Artists were equally drawn to the man and to what he stood for. During the more than quarter-century that Mandela was jailed, his freedom became synonymous with the freedom of his country. Songwriters and poets invoked his name in calling for apartheids end and an artistic boycott of South Africa. Nelson Mandela is, for me, the single statesman in the world, Nobel laureate Toni Morrison once observed. The single statesman, in that literal sense, who is not solving all his problems with guns. Its truly unbelievable. Elizabeth Alexander, who read the inaugural poem at the swearing-in of President Obama in 2009, had years earlier written A Poem for Nelson Mandela, which featured the lines: Nelson Mandela is with me because I believe/in symbols; symbols bear power; symbols demand/power; and that is how a nation/follows a man who leads from prison/and cannot speak to them. It took some daring to support Mandela during his prison years, when Mandela and the political movement he led, the African National Congress, were on international terrorist lists and opinions about him often divided between liberals and conservatives. As late as 1988, just two years before his release, an all-star concert held to celebrate his 70th birthday was censored on British television to remove political content. But just as South Africa managed a peaceful transition from apartheid to democracy, Mandela evolved from opposition leader to head of state to sage with remarkably little damage; he only seemed to gain admirers. Over the last decade of his life, Mandela presided over a series of 46664 concerts in South Africa, named for Mandelas prison number (466) and the year he was jailed, 1964. Here are highlights of works inspired by Mandela: Movies: Some of Hollywoods greatest actors played him on film. Morgan Freeman, another Oscar-winning actor of such august bearing that his roles have ranged from judges to God, played Mandela in 2009s Invictus, directed by Clint Eastwood, about a South African rugby team. Danny Glover also starred in a TV movie about his life, while Mandela himself made a cameo at the end of Spike Lees Malcolm X, released in 1992. Mandela: Long Walk to Freedom, starring Idris Elba and based on Mandelas autobiography, was just released this month. Concerts: One of the landmarks of the movement to free Mandela was a 1988 televised concert from Londons Wembley Stadium that celebrated his 70th birthday and featured such superstars as Stevie Wonder, Whitney Houston and Sting. At the time, Mandelas African National Congress was still regarded as a terrorist organization by many countries and had been condemned by Britains thenPrime Minister Margaret Thatcher. The BBC angered Mandela supporters by censoring political statements and angered the South African government by airing the concert at all. A 1990 concert celebrating his release featured Tracy Chapman, Neil Young and Mandela himself, who received a long standing ovation. Shows in his honor continued over the decades, with Will Smith, U2s Bono and Annie Lennox among those appearing. Songs: Songs protesting apartheid and praising Mandela were written throughout the 1980s and up through his release from prison in 1990, from Eddy Grants Gimme Hope JoAnna to Steve Van Zandts all-star Sun City, featuring Bruce Springsteen, Miles Davis and many other performers, which called for artists to refuse to play in South Africa. Songs directly about Mandela included a Bono-Joe Strummer collaboration, 46664; Free Nelson Mandela, by Special A.K.A., an off-shoot of the Specials, and Simple Minds Mandela Day. Literature: Nadine Gordimers 1987 novel A Sport of Nature prophesized the end of apartheid and included a liberation leader based on Mandela. Poems about Mandela date back at least to the 1970s with And I Watch it in Mandela, by South Africas John Matshikiza. Jekwu Ikemes When Mandela Goes, published in 2004, bowed to mortality and looked to a future without the hallowed man, whose tribal name was Madiba: When you go Madiba your nobility shall be our lasting inheritance this land you so love shall continue to love we shall trail the long and majestic walk your gallant walk shall be our cross and shepherd.

Disgraced priest to wed pope advisers daughter

Associated Press
VATICAN CITY Thomas Williams, the onetime public face of the disgraced Legion of Christ religious order who left the priesthood after admitting he fathered a child, is getting married this weekend to the childs mother, The Associated Press has learned. The bride is the daughter of former U.S. Ambassador to the Holy See Mary Ann Glendon, one of Pope Francis top advisers. Glendon, a Harvard University law professor, is one of the highest-ranking women at the Vatican as president of the Pontifical Academy for Social Sciences. She is also one of five people on Francis commission to reform the scandalmarred Vatican bank. Her daughter, Elizabeth Lev, is a Rome-based art historian and columnist for the Legion-run Zenit news agency, which Williams published for over a decade while he was in the order. Williams, a moral theologian, author, lecturer and U.S. television personality, admitted last year that he had fathered a child several years earlier. At the time, Williams apologized for this grave transgression against his vows of celibacy and said he had stayed on as a priest because he hoped to move beyond this sin in my past to do good work for the church. The Legions retired superior later admitted he had learned about the child in 2005 but allowed Williams to keep teaching and preaching about morality. After taking a year off for reflection, Williams left the priesthood in May to care for his son. According to their wedding registry, he and Lev are due to marry on Saturday in the United States. Asked for comment Thursday, Lev confirmed the wedding plans in an email, adding: We have no an intimate relationship with Williams, though they frequently appeared together in American circles in Rome, particularly with visiting U.S. student and Catholic tour groups. Their wedding closes a circle of sorts, even as it raises some uncomfortable questions: Who beyond Williams superior in the church knew about the child while the couple tried to cover it up? Was Williams already in a relationship with Lev when she became a regular contributor to the magazine he published? And did the family ties to Williams influence Glendon in her defense of the Legion and its disgraced founder despite credible reports that the founder was a pedophile? The questions swirled Thursday as the Legion dropped a bombshell of its own, admitting that a superior who was in charge of the bulk of its American priests-in-training for over a decade sexually abused a minor at the Legions novitiate in Cheshire, Connecticut. The Legion said a second accuser had also come forward with an allegation against the Rev. William Izquierdo, who was novice director at the Cheshire school from 1982-1994 and in Ireland before then. Izquierdo, now 85, has dementia. The saga of the Legion of Christ represents one of the most egregious examples of how the Vatican ignored decades of reports about sexually abusive priests as church leaders put the interests of the institution above those of the victims. The Rev. Marcial Maciel founded the cult-like Legion in 1941 in Mexico and oversaw its growth into a large and prominent congregation despite credible reports that he was a drug addict and child molester. After Maciels death in 2008, the Legion admitted that he fathered three children and sexually abused his seminarians.

Associated Press

The attack on Pearl Harbor or Hawaii Hawaii Operation, as it was called by the Imperial General Headquarters, was a surprise military strike conducted by the Japanese navy against the United States' naval base at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii on the morning of Sunday December 7, 1941, later resulting in the United States becoming militarily involved in World War II. It was intended as a preventive action to keep the U.S. Pacific Fleet from influencing the war Japan was planning to wage in Southeast Asia against Britain, the Netherlands, and the United States. The attack consisted of two aerial attack waves totaling 353 aircraft, launched from six Japanese aircraft carriers. The attack sank four U.S. Navy battleships (two of which were raised and returned to service late in the war) and damaged four more. The Japanese also sank or damaged three cruisers, three destroyers, and one minelayer, destroyed 188 aircraft, and caused personnel losses of 2,402 killed and 1,282 wounded. The power station, shipyard, maintenance, and fuel and torpedo storage facilities, as well as the submarine piers and headquarters building (also home of the intelligence section) were not hit. Japanese losses were minimal, at 29 aircraft and five midget submarines, with 65 servicemen killed or wounded. The strike was intended to neutralize the U.S. Pacific Fleet, and hence protect Japan's advance into Malaya and the Dutch East Indies, where Japan sought access to natural resources such as oil and rubber. Both the U.S. and Japan held long-standing contingency plans for war in the Pacific which were continuously updated as tensions between the two countries steadily increased during the 1930s, with the Japanese expansion into Manchuria and French Indochina greeted by steadily increased levels of embargoes and sanctions from the United States and other nations. In 1940, under the authority granted by the Export Control Act, the U.S. halted shipments of airplanes, parts, machine tools, and aviation gasoline, which was perceived by Japan as an unfriendly act. The U.S. did not stop oil exports to Japan at that time in part because prevailing sentiment in Washington was that such an action would be an extreme step, given Japanese dependence on U.S. oil, and likely to be considered Following Japanese expansion into French Indochina after the fall of France, the U.S. ceased oil exports to Japan in the Summer of 1941, in part because of new American restrictions on domestic oil consumption. President Franklin D. Roosevelt had earlier moved the Pacific Fleet to Hawaii and ordered a military buildup in the Philippines in the hope of discouraging Japanese aggression in the Far East. As the Japanese high command was (mistakenly) certain any attack on the United Kingdom's Southeast Asian colonies would bring the U.S. into the war, a preventive strike appeared to be the only way for Japan to avoid U.S. naval interference. An invasion of the Philippines was also considered to be necessary by Japanese war plans, while for the U.S., reconquest of the islands had been a given of War Plan Orange in the interwar years. While the attack accomplished its intended objective, it was completely unnecessary. Unbeknownst to Isoroku Yamamoto, who conceived the original plan, the U.S. Navy had decided as far back as 1935 to abandon 'charging' across the Pacific towards the Philippines in response to an outbreak of war (in keeping with the evolution of Plan Orange). The U.S. instead adopted "Plan Dog" in 1940, which emphasized keeping the Imperial Japanese Navy (IJN) out of the eastern Pacific and away from the shipping lanes to Australia while the U.S. concentrated on defeating Nazi Germany. The attack was an important engagement of World War II. Unintentionally occurring before a formal declaration of war (which had been scheduled to be delivered shortly prior to the attack beginning), it pushed U.S. public opinion from isolationism to the acceptance of participation in the war being unavoidable. The lack of warning led Roosevelt to call it "a date which will live in infamy."

Why do those decorative pears have fruit?

CHUcK OTTE
Field & Garden called Bradford pear was really promoted, and by the 1980s it was showing up everywhere. As one person described it, in the spring it can look like a giant Q-tip in your yard. In a good spring it can be totally covered with masses of white blossoms. A very striking plant to be sure. In the beginning Bradford pears were loved for the white blossoms, purplish red fall leaf color and because it didnt bear fruit. But there was a downside to the Bradford pear. It tended to develop a lot of branches that arose from the main trunk with very narrow crotch angles. If not pruned out early on, narrow crotch angles become a defect as they are very weak and as the tree grows, the limbs become more and more subject to wind or ice damage. It started to become quite common after a wind storm or ice storm to see a 20 or 30 year old Bradford pear with several branches split out and lying on the ground. There were many other cultivars of Callery pears out there and once this fatal flaw showed up, nurserymen and plant breeders went to work. Many new cultivars of Callery pears that had better form and structure and thereby stronger and less susceptible to wind damage were identified and developed for the trade. New cultivars came out with name like Aristocrat, Capital, Chanticleer, Cleveland Select, Princess and Stonehill to mention a few. That was about the time that new troubles started to develop. Pear trees, both ornament Callery pears as well as common fruiting pears, are somewhat self-sterile. Weve long known that youll get a much better fruit crop if you have two pears of different cultivars. Common pears and Callery pears also appear to be only moderately cross fertile and we really never had very many fruit pear trees around here anyway. So very rarely did we ever find fruit on the ornamental pears. But once these other Callery pear cultivars started showing up, things begin to change. There was enough genetic differences between the different cultivars that cross-pollination (thank you honeybees) started taking off and suddenly fruit was abundant on and under these trees in the fall. A late frost can still really drop the fruit production, but the last few years that hasnt been happening. There are certain pesticides that may reduce fruiting if applied at the right concentration at the right time, early on after blooming. But it looks like we are pretty much stuck with fruit on these trees. Ironically, they are now starting to spring up as volunteer trees everywhere and that could be a problem too. I am now discouraging further planting of any Callery pear. We have many flowering crabapples that should be considered instead. If you are planting a Callery pear, keep it well away from sidewalks and driveways so you dont have to worry about the fruit. Im not saying to cut down any trees, just dont plant any more. And that then is my story of the pretty little tree that went bad.

his is the story of a decorative little tree that went bad. The tree is specifically the Callery pear, but most folks know them as Bradford pears. The Callery pear is native to Korea and China. It came to the United States in the very early 1900s and was originally brought in as breeding stock to use in pear breeding, hopefully to breed fireblight resistance into fruiting pears. That didnt work out very well, but eventually homeowners and nurseryman realized that it was a very attractive ornamental and it started to be used more and more often in landscaping. Its use really took off in the 1970s when a cultivar

Celebrate the season-ing

or many of us, we have entered a season of celebration beginning with Thanksgiving and ending after the first of the New Year. We celebrate with family, friends and co-workers. Food is often at the center of many of our gatherings. We can use these gatherings to expand our palates and explore new foods and celebrate the seasonings of a variety of cultures. Here are some tips you can use to celebrate healthier foods and customs. Gather up some of your friends who use authentic recipes and ingredient from other regions or countries. Prepare a meal together that includes some our your own family favorites and those of your friends. Sharing the kitchen space together is a great time to visit while sharing the meal preparation methods specific to other regions around the world. If possible, cut back on some of the creams, sauces, or gravies and add more vegetables to the meal. Changing cooking methods is another approach to making the meal a healthier alternative; baking instead of frying. Many of the foods and beverages in America are made as a result of blending cuisines of many cultures. Celebrate our diversity by exploring dishes that include a variety of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, beans, seafood, lean meats, and low-fat dairy. Read the labels on packaged foods to determine how much sodium they contain. Begin by looking packaging that says low-sodium or not salt added. Check the nutrition labels and use products that have lower numbers listed for sodium. A variety in cultures brings us a variety of tasty beverages with them. Create tasty smoothies using different fruits or spices than you are accustomed to. Reduce the amount of sugar and fat used in beverages or choose prepared beverages that have less sugar and fat in them. If you are trying to manage calories, drink unsweetened beverages. Water is always another smart choice.
