Kobach yet to prosecute noncitizen voter fraud

Jail plan to cost about $30M

——

Secretary of State focusing on cases that are ‘ready to go’ By Peter Hancock Twitter: @LJWpqhancock

Topeka — Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach said Monday that records show as many as 19 non-U.S. citizens have either registered to vote or attempted to do so, but his office has not yet prosecuted any of them, either because the statute of limitations has run out, or because other cases are being given higher priority. Kobach told the House Elections Committee Monday that those individuals Kobach have been identified by election officials in Sedgwick County who have attended naturalization ceremonies for immigrants receiving their U.S. citizenship, offered to register them to vote, and cross-checked those names against the county’s existing list of registered voters. “And in so doing, they are coming across a surprising number of people who were already registered as green card holders and got registered, in some cases many years ago, and only now have become citizens,” he said. But Rep. John Carmichael of Wichita, the ranking Democrat on the panel, said he recalled Kobach estimating as recently as a year ago that the number was much higher. “As I recall your testimony before the committee last year, you told us approximately 2,200 noncitizens were registered in Kansas, and that was based upon a study you couldn’t release to us because it was preliminary,” Carmichael said. “I don’t recall giving you a personal estimate,” Kobach replied. “I think I was extrapolating from a study or article that I had read.” Kobach’s appearance before the committee Monday came just a few days after his office filed charges against three more individuals in Kansas for allegedly casting ballots in two different states during the same election.

ESU leader wants to boost enrollment

Voter

Emporia — Emporia State University’s new president, Allison Garrett, must lead the school in the midst of a statewide plan to boost higher education attainment. Though only two weeks into her post, Garrett, who took over for Michael Shonrock at the start of the year, told The Topeka Capital-Journal she is considering several ways to boost the school’s declining enrollment and maintain strong retention and graduation rates. At Emporia State, enrollment has been dipping during the last six years. Garrett said she isn’t yet sure why that might be, but plans to curb the downward slide with better outreach to prospective students and assessing the school’s program. Garrett has 12 years of experience in higher education as an educator and administrator at schools in Alabama, Texas and Oklahoma. She hopes to leverage her experience in student life and admissions to help Emporia State’s student body grow.

Those individuals are Randall Killian of Ellis County, Ron Weems of Sedgwick County, and Michael L. Hannum of Johnson County. The charges against Weems and Hannum include felony charges for allegedly making false statements when they signed poll books in their counties. Killian is charged with misdemeanor counts of casting multiple ballots in the November 2012 election and making a false statement to obtain an advance ballot. The possibility of nonU.S. citizens voting in Kansas elections was the main rationale Kobach offered in 2011 when he pushed for passage of a law requiring new voters to show proof of U.S. citizenship in order to register. The law took effect in 2013. Since then, more than 30,000 would-be voters have had their registration applications placed “in suspense” for failing to produce such documentation. And in September, Kobach’s office issued a new regulation directing

Mack Vail colt After an active life as an avid golfer and quail hunter, Mack Vail Colt of Mission Hills put away his golf clubs, shotgun, Bible, walking shoes and business journals and joined his Savior Jesus Christ on Friday, January 22, 2016. He was born on June 29, 1939 in Iola, Kansas to Mack Clayton and Jane Vail Colt. He received a B.S. in Business in 1961 and a Juris Doctor in 1964 from the University of Kansas. His love of the Jayhawks was life-long. A loyal supporter of KU academics and athletics, he held season football and basketball tickets through the good times and bad. Many family memories were shared at tailgates and family trips to the Final Four. Mack was a member of the Phi Delta Theta fraternity and his brothers in the bond included lifelong friends and business partners. The Kansas City alumni association awarded him the Phi Delt of the Year award. It was at KU that he met the love of his life, Sara Clawson, and they were married in 1961. An entrepreneur, Mack had a sixth sense for understanding business. As a life insurance producer, he was a lifetime member of the Million Dollar Roundtable and multiple-year Top of the Table qualifier. After purchasing the bank in his wife’s hometown of Hartford KS in 1967, he diversified his businesses over the years. He served as the president and chairman of the board of the First National Bank of Lawrence. At the time of his death, he was serving on the US Bank Board of Kansas City and the Everest Bankshares Board. Mack accepted Jesus Christ as his personal Lord and Savior in law school through Campus Crusade for Christ. Daily Bible reading, several weekly Bible Studies and operating his businesses using Christian ethics reflected his faith.

county election officers to begin purging the rolls of all incomplete applications that have been pending more than 90 days. There are slightly more than 1.7 million registered voters in Kansas. In 2014, lawmakers passed another bill giving Kobach’s office the power to prosecute voting fraud cases. Since then, only six cases have been filed, including the three new ones last week, but none of them has involved non-U.S. citizens registering to vote or casting ballots illegally. “Right now we’re trying to do this with existing staff, so we’re going after the older cases and the cases where we have the evidence right here and it’s ready to go,” Kobach said. Prosecuting the crime of voting by noncitizens, he said, is more difficult because in many cases the actual crime, registering to vote, occurred so long ago that the statute of limitations has expired, and because it is more difficult to gather documents and testimony to prove that someone was not a citizen at the time he or she registered. Also at the meeting, Kobach requested

He was a member of Colonial Presbyterian Church and served as an elder and deacon. He was also a member of the United Way Tocqueville Society. For over fifty years, business people, missionaries and charitable organizations were blessed by the sharing of his time, talents and treasure to further God’s kingdom. Mack truly loved his family and enjoyed a deep personal relationship with each of his children and grandchildren. He treasured annual vacations with the family who adored him. He is survived by his wife of 54 years, Sara; Liz (Dave) Deckert of Leawood; Kristin (John) Goodwin of Mission Hills; Mack (JoAnn) Colt of Lenexa; grandchildren: Katherine and Elizabeth Deckert; Sara, Johnny and Catherine Goodwin; Mack and Jane Colt; sisters Ann Colt of The Netherlands, Edith Carr of Wayzata, MN and Carol McClelland of Prairie Village, KS.

introduction of a bill that would require audits of all elections, starting in 2017. That bill is a response to recent requests by a Wichita State University mathematician, Beth Clarkson, who has wanted to audit the paper records of electronic voting machines in Sedgwick County, saying that she believes there were anomalies in that county during the 2014 elections. Kobach’s office has denied that request, saying it is specifically prohibited under current Kansas law. Meanwhile, Rep. John Alcala, D-Topeka, introduced another bill in the committee calling for same-day registration, which would allow voters to register at any time before an election, up to and including Election Day. A copy of that bill was not available Monday afternoon. According to the National Conference of State Legislatures, 10 other states and the District of Columbia currently allow sameday registration. Hawaii will begin offering it in 2018. Kobach has said previously that he would oppose such a law in Kansas. — Statehouse reporter Peter Hancock can be reached at 354-4222 or phancock@ljworld.com.

correction officers to observe inmates for 72 hours before assigning them in the appropriate populations. Although the sexes would be segregated, the pod would house 28 male and 14 females inmates. l Mental health pods for 28 male and 14 female inmates. l The addition of sideby-side male and female re-entry pods with rooms or counseling and classes. The pods would be built off the relocated male minimum-security pods. It would add 28 re-entry beds for men and 14 for women. Rowe also revealed plans to repurpose existing jail space that would become available with the expansion. The male minimum-security population would be moved to the first-floor pod that now houses the male reentry and work-release programs. The current male minimum-security pod would be repurposed for female minimum security. The pod that now houses the entire female population would be divided into female maximum-security and medium-security pods, Rowe said. The male maximumsecurity pod would gain the 14 beds currently used to house those male inmates with serious mental illness, Rowe said. Current mental health beds are in 8-by-10-foot concrete cells in which inmates are exposed to the jail’s constant noise, Rowe said. The new mental-health pod would have a more isolated first-floor location and provide inmates access to natural light and openair courtyards. Both elements have been found to be therapeutic for patients with mental health issues, he said. Although Monday’s meeting focused on the jail expansion, commissioners reminded those in attendance the 15-month effort to produce a new jail design was done in conjunction with an effort to address county mental health issues through a crisis intervention center and mental health court, which would consider alternative placements for those taken into custody. During the citizen question-and-answer session, Benet Magnuson questioned that approach, maintaining that the public was supportive of a crisis intervention center but not the jail expansion. The commission was holding mental health hostage to gain votes for a referendum to finance the jail, he said. Commissioners responded that no decision yet had been made on a financing mechanism for the jail or the language of a referendum. They did, however, defend the coupling of the crisis intervention center and the jail expansion and the effort to address both needs. “I would hope that our community would be just as concerned about the health and well-being of everybody in that jail as they are about those with mental health issues,” Commissioner Nancy Thellman said.

KANSAS HIGHWAY PATROL TROOPERS LINE UP BEHIND A GOLD VAN at Clinton Parkway and K-10 that led officers on a chase along U.S. Highway 40 from Topeka at speeds up to 120 mph.

120-mph police chase ends in Lawrence By Conrad Swanson Twitter: @Conrad_Swanson

A Monday afternoon police chase with speeds topping 120 mph ended in Lawrence, police said. Around 1:15 p.m., Trooper Adam Simone of the Kansas Highway Patrol said he tried to pull over a van in Topeka that was reported stolen from an area dealership. Six Kansas Highway Patrol troopers line up behind a gold van at Clinton Parkway and Kansas Highway 10 after a chase along U.S.

Highway 40 from Topeka. The van, a 2012 Chrysler Town and Country, immediately fled, Simone said. The driver, a Topeka man in his mid-20s, began heading eastbound on Interstate 70, Simone said. Police chased the suspect, with speeds well over 100 mph, north on Kansas Highway 4 and then east on U.S. Highway 40 toward Lawrence, Simone said. “Just before the city limits another trooper was able to hit their vehicle with a spike strip and deflate

one of their tires,” he said. The damaged vehicle then turned south on Kansas Highway 10 and drove until Clinton Parkway where it came to a stop on the exit ramp, Simone said. The driver was arrested and booked into the Shawnee County Jail, Simone said. The passenger, a Topeka woman, was released at the scene. “We determined she played no role in the whole thing and was just an innocent person in the van,” Simone said.

The Lawrence-Douglas County Planning Commission voted Monday to recommend approval of what may become the first development along the under-construction South Lawrence Trafficway: a multi-field soccer complex that its would-be users say is greatly needed. Commissioners voted 9-0 for a conditional-use permit for the site, named Calcio Village, which is proposed for 80 acres at the northeast corner of North 1300 Road and East 1750 Road. Joe Comparato, a soccer coach at Bishop Seabury Academy and the

head of Jambars Futbal Inc. — the organization planning the development — said it would be used by both of those groups and Lawrence’s 600-member Adult Soccer League. “We feel there’s a huge need for these facilities in Lawrence,” Comparato told the commission. “The current facility is preoccupied by another organization; we fight for space. Not only would this provide an environment for our kids to grow and develop, but it’s an outlet for other organizations that experience the same thing.” Comparato referenced the city’s Youth Sports Complex off West 27th Please see SOCCER, page 4A

Early-ed program would change with proposed budget By Rochelle Valverde Twitter: @RochelleVerde

The Lawrence school district’s free early-childhood education program served nearly 200 children last school year, but potential changes to the program’s funding could decrease that number. Earlier this month, Gov. Sam Brownback’s administration outlined his plan for balancing the

state’s budget. As part of the plan, the program’s source of funding would change to federal welfare money known as Temporary Assistance to Needy Families, or TANF. Coordinators of the program told the Lawrence school board at its meeting Monday that would mean the program could no longer be free for all families. Please see SCHOOLS, page 4A

Brownback campaign legal fees under scrutiny By Roxana Hegeman Associated Press

funds as collateral for bank loans obtained by a candidate. Three loans from Lt. Gov. Jeff Colyer totaling $1.5 million drew attention on the campaign trail because of their size and because the first two were repaid within days. The move by the stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s top elected Democrat comes just days after Hensley sent a memo to Shawnee County District Attorney Chad Taylor separately seeking a criminal investigation into whether Colyer broke any state laws related to those loans. Democrats have long speculated the loans might

have been timed to inflate campaign finance reports as the Republican governor faced the prospect of losing to the well-financed Democratic challenger, Paul Davis. A federal grand jury investigated the loans, and while that probe was going on, campaign donations were used to pay more than $167,000 in legal fees to five criminal defense firms. The U.S. attorneyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s office said in June it and planned to bring no federal criminal charges related to the loans. Eileen Hawley, spokeswoman for the governorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s office, said in an email on

behalf of Colyer that the â&#x20AC;&#x153;campaign was conducted in compliance with all laws and regulations.â&#x20AC;? Davis, a Lawrence attorney, said he had no part in Hensleyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s efforts. The Associated Press broke the story about the federal investigation into the loans in January 2015, after obtaining through an open records request a copy of a grand jury subpoena sent to the executive director of ethics commission. But a finance report filed earlier this month detailing the legal fees amid the grand jury probe raised fresh questions.

Because commissioners voted to deny the specialuse permit, the motion also denied the proposed site plan. The plan called for four restaurants, one with a drive-thru, and two office and retail buildings. The 7-acre area would have included a total 31,625 square feet of restaurant, retail and office space. There were plans for the drive-thru to be a coffee shop, said Paul Werner, the architect on the project. Commissioners voted to deny it after hearing from a half-dozen residents of the area who had concerns the fast-order establishment would bring in extra traffic to a neighborhood with multiple schools.

Currently, the program is available to anyone living within the school district who is pregnant or has a child under 3. Members of the school board also expressed concern with the program only being free to the poorest families. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think something that makes Parents as Teachers unique is that itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s universal and for all kids,â&#x20AC;? said school board President Vanessa Sanburn. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think

The recommended change to how PAT and similar programs are funded would help to fill a projected $175 million revenue shortfall in the next fiscal year. Brownbackâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s plan would shift $44.1 million out of the Childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Initiative Fund directly into the stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s general fund, then use the federal TANF funds to pay for some of the

programs previously paid out of the childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fund. Last school year, the program served 193 children, and parent educators made more than 1,000 personal visits, according to a report delivered to the board. The program usually has a waiting list of about 35 people. Green told the board that children who participated in the program had multiple benefits that increased their school readiness. Based on Kansas School Readiness Data, children whose families participated in PAT were

more likely to be read to daily by their parents and had higher scores in math concepts, written language and oral communication. Despite the concerns with funding, Green was hopeful about being able to help more kids. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Right now we serve approximately 20 percent of the incoming kindergartners in the district, but imagine if we could serve more,â&#x20AC;? she said.

Grant money will fund a full-time assistant curator of research, fellowships for faculty and student researchers, and some visiting scholars, according to KU. The first fellowships

will begin this summer. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This new initiative will strengthen our capacity to inspire and support scholarship that integrates the arts, sciences and humanities,â&#x20AC;? Saralyn Reece Hardy, museum director, said in a KU news release. Straughn said museumgoers can expect to see an

example of interdisciplinary research at work when an exhibition entitled â&#x20AC;&#x153;Big Botanyâ&#x20AC;? opens in the next couple years. Stephen Goddard, associate director and senior curator, is working on that exhibition, which also involves collaboration with scientists who specialize in

plants, Straughn said. Big picture-wise, the exhibition will examine and incorporate art to explain the relationship of humans and the plant world.

Parking problem City commissioners shouldn’t be too quick to bail out developers who made a poor decision concerning parking facilities for a major apartment complex.

he developers of a major apartment/retail complex east of Memorial Stadium are facing some parking problems, and the solutions they are proposing aren’t acceptable. When HERE @ Kansas gained city approval of tax incentives for its $75 million project, plans called for a robotic parking system that would squeeze more parking spaces into less space than a traditional parking garage would occupy in the complex. Unfortunately, the company that had agreed to install that system later filed for bankruptcy, leaving HERE looking for an alternative solution. That solution now includes building a separate parking structure just south of the complex. The garage may be an acceptable plan but it will take some extra time, so HERE is asking the city to approve some temporary alternatives. The developers’ first choice is to simply obtain a waiver that will allow the 624-bedroom apartment complex to be fully occupied before the adjacent parking structure is available. That would leave the complex with 69 fewer parking places than in the approved plan, which is simply unacceptable in a neighborhood where parking already is at a premium. The developers’ other idea is to work with Kansas University to obtain 25 dedicated parking spaces in KU lots near the complex, which would meet the city’s minimum parking requirement for the complex. The previous City Commission rejected a similar plan after hearing from neighbors that KU parking already was spilling over into the neighborhood. This idea also is a non-starter. The city’s planning staff recommends that neither of these options be accepted and offers a compromise that would allow the complex to open if at least 23 bedrooms remain empty until additional parking is complete. As city commissioners consider these requests tonight, they should keep in mind that this is the developer’s problem to solve. The city should work with the developer, but it is not the one who decided to work with a contractor that now cannot deliver what was promised. One question commissioners might ask is exactly what steps the developer took to find another contractor that could complete the robotic parking system. A HERE representative initially indicated that would be the strategy, but for some reason, that plan later was rejected. Was the system simply faulty? Could no alternative contractors be found? Was the robotic system ditched because of financial concerns? The robotic system was a relatively key element to the project approved by the city, and officials should be convinced that plan no longer is feasible. Assuming that is the case, city commissioners should keep their focus on minimizing the impact of this project on already-tight parking in the neighborhood. Neither option favored by the developers does that. Even the planners’ proposed compromise seems barely sufficient. This is an unfortunate situation for HERE, but sometimes a developer has to pay a price for a bad business decision. The city’s first obligation in this case is to the public and the neighborhood, not the developer.

Technology changing job market The headlines from last week’s World Economic Forum meeting attended by 40 heads of government in Davos, Switzerland, focused on Islamic State terrorism, collapsing oil prices and Europe’s refugee crisis. But what I found most interesting — and under-reported — was the group’s forecast that robots will kill more than five million jobs over the next five years. A massive study released at the WEF meeting warned that advanced robotics, artificial intelligence, selfdriving cars, 3-D printers, genetics, biotechnology and other new technologies will have a bigger impact on employment than many people thought. And the new technologies will affect workers in industrialized and developing countries alike, unless countries update their education systems. Among the most endangered jobs will be those of sales people, cashiers, administrative clerks, assembly line workers and taxi drivers, the report says. Growing automation of checkout processes will phase out large numbers of cashiers at stores, while online shopping will continue reducing sales jobs. Simultaneously, advanced robots and 3-D printers will affect mass manufacturing industries because more assembly-line workers will be replaced by robots or individualized 3-D production at homes or local printers. The “internet of things”

“

A massive study released at the WEF meeting warned that advanced robotics, artificial intelligence, self-driving cars, 3-D printers, genetics, biotechnology and other new technologies will have a bigger impact on employment than many people thought.”

— the new Internet connections through which objects will communicate with one another, much as people do today — will impact many industries, it says. While soda vending machines in most countries are still checked out by an inspector on a daily basis to determine how many bottles should be replaced, such tasks will increasingly be done automatically through direct Internet communication between vending machines and supply trucks. And the supply trucks may

soon be self-driven. The study, entitled “The future of jobs report,” is based on a survey of senior executives at 371 big companies in 15 countries, including the United States, several European nations, Mexico and Brazil. It concludes that technological advances will kill about 7.1 million jobs. At the same time, they will create 2 million new jobs, which would lead to a net loss of 5.1 million jobs. Among the jobs that will grow in the near future are those dealing with installation, repair and maintenance of robots and 3-D printers, and data analysts for virtually every industry. Architects, engineers, computer scientists and mathematicians will be in high demand, the study says. Intrigued by whether technological advances will impact rich and developing countries alike, I asked that question to Marisol Argueta, the WEF’s Latin American director. Definitely, she said, citing the case of car manufacturing plants that are increasingly being manned by robots. But what surprised me the most was her assertion that even Latin America’s agriculture and farming industries will be rocked by technological change, as China is expected to open its first commercial farm that will mass produce cloned cows. Indeed, a Chinese-Korean joint venture will open a huge animal cloning fac-

tory in China’s coastal city of Tianjin this year that plans to produce 100,000 cloned cows and calves shortly, and about 1 million in a second phase, according to a recent report in the China Daily newspaper. My opinion: Technology, although it can have negative effects, tends to overall do more good than harm. Pessimists have been forecasting that technology would kill mass employment since the industrial revolution two centuries ago, when angry workers destroyed textile machines claiming that millions of jobs would disappear, and it hasn’t happened. The percentage of world poor has fallen significantly in recent decades. If anything, people are working less than the 16-hour days that our ancestors used to work in agrarian societies. We may work fewer hours, and have more flexible jobs. But what’s clear is that countries have to modernize their education systems to produce more engineers, architects and innovation-focused humanities graduates. Sixty-five percent of children entering primary school today will end up working in jobs that don’t exist today, the WEF report says. If we don’t prepare our children to have more technical skills, and to be more entrepreneurial and innovative, we may be more threatened by the coming wave of technology. — Andres Oppenheimer is a Latin America correspondent for the Miami Herald.

PUBLIC FORUM

Dual rules To the editor: The Kansas Women Attorneys Association, a statewide organization of 260 members, protests the 11-point code of conduct issued by Sen. Mitch Holmes that contains dress code suggestions that single out women who appear before committees chaired by Sen. Holmes. First and foremost, if Kansas residents of either gender want to share their concerns with Senate committees, KWAA encourages the committees to pay attention to those residents, rather than to what the residents are wearing. Secondly, as an organization of professional women who are often asked to lend their expertise to the Legislature on behalf of their clients, their employers or other organizations, KWAA strongly objects to any rules or guidelines or suggestions that are directed solely at women. In 2016, people offering testimony are entitled to be treated the same no matter what their gender. Any suggestion that rules for males and females should be different should be rejected. If Sen. Holmes did not recognize this, his staff or his colleagues or his constituents should bring it to his attention. There was a time in our not-too-distant history that only males were welcome

and treated as equals in the legislative process. That time is past. The current Kansas Legislature’s conduct should respect and recognize that gender equality benefits all of us and should guard against the kind of backward and insulting language employed by Sen. Holmes. Marilyn Harp, Lawrence

Shifting blame

think many teenagers and children can have enough maturity to not blame others for their own mental state. You have exhibited one of the cognitive distortions identified by psychologists: blaming others for your own negative thoughts and actions, thereby refusing to take personal responsibility. With your Ethics Committee regulations you have chosen to blame women for your own inability to focus on the job. Let me ask you this: Are you the type of person who would ask of a rape victim, “What were you wearing?” The way you blame women for the failure of men sure doesn’t jibe with the Republican Party’s mantra of “personal responsibility.” If you’re in committee and can’t get your mind past whatever may threaten to distract it on any given day and focus on your job, then I suggest you are not fit to govern.

struggling, the wind energy industry has continued to pick up strength. Kimberly Svaty, lobbyist for the Wind Coalition that represents both large and small wind energy producers, said wind production in Kansas is expected to grow more than 37 percent this year, to more than 4,540 megawatts — more than the total capacity of the Wolf Creek nuclear power plant. Much of that was due to a law enacted in 2009 that required public utilities to produce at least 20 percent of their electricity from wind or other renewable sources by 2020. But lawmakers repealed that law last year, replacing it with a voluntary “goal” instead, even though the state had already surpassed the 20 percent mark five years ahead of time. What the industry needs now to sustain that growth, Svaty said, is “policy stability” at both the state and federal level so that financial investors who put up the money for wind farms and transmission lines have some certainty about how they will be taxed and regulated in the years to come. She noted that Congress, after several years of sending mixed signals, recently reauthorized a production tax credit for wind energy for the next

Driving those numbers are global economic and political influences far beyond the control of Kansans, he said, including a deliberate strategy by OPEC nations to drive down prices and discourage production elsewhere; sluggish economic growth in China, Japan and the European Union; and a strong U.S. dollar that has driven down the cost of foreign imports. “The ripple effects are everywhere,” he said. “If you think about the role of oil in your life, it’s not only the primary source of many of our fuels, but it’s also critical in chemicals, lubricants, fibers, pharmaceuticals, plastics and many other items. “And the industry also supports nationwide about 1.3 million manufacturing jobs,” he said. “And you think about the law, accounting and the engineering firms that serve the industry, the pipe and drilling equipment and other manufacturing goods that it requires, the large payrolls and their effects on consumer spending, you begin to get the picture of the enormity of the oil and gas industry.” But while the oil and gas industry has been

five years. “That, I think, is very important for policy stability for the industry,” she said. “Certainly I know the developers were very focused on that for a long time.” Some lawmakers noted, however, that much of the wind energy produced in Kansas is exported to other states. Rep. Randy Powell, ROlathe, asked whether Kansas will still get credit for that under the federal government’s Clean Power Plan, which requires states to shift more of their electricity production to renewable resources. Svaty, however, said that Kansas is still developing its specific plan for complying with the Clean Power Plan and that the EPA will have the final say in how exported power is counted. “There’s going to be a lot of push and pull, because certainly the entities that are purchasing the wind are going to want to capture it for themselves, but we want to capture it for our state benefit,” she said. “I know the state will make a very good case for wanting to capture all of our wind benefits.”

AIRLINES’ GAMBLE ON FUEL PRICE COSTLY ‘Hedging’ has lost some charm for certain carriers Chris Woodyard @ChrisWoodyard USA TODAY

In the poker game of predicting fuel prices, American Airlines has shown it holds the winning hand. American, which reports earnings Friday, is one of the few airlines that hasn’t been paying a premium to lock in fuel prices, preferring instead to ride the pet-

rol roller coaster. That strategy has paid off handsomely as oil prices have fallen. With no big spikes on the horizon, American executives may want to keep riding it out. Hedging — buying fuel at a specific price to avoid wild fluctuations — has been a common practice for years, not just by airlines but other heavy fuel users, like transit agencies. Fuel along with labor are typically the two biggest expenses an airline faces. The fall of oil prices to less than $30 a barrel this month is one of the big factors behind airlines’ booming profits, but one interesting sidelight has been how the industry practice of “hedg-

ing” has proved costly to some. For years, hedging worked like a charm protecting airlines from sudden oil price hikes, but in the falling price environment of the past few months, hedging has often worked against them — sticking them with above-market fuel prices. Prices of benchmark U.S. crude oil managed to stay above $30 a barrel on Monday. It was down $1.85 to close at $30.34 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange. Southwest Airlines, which slashed its fuel bills for years by hedging, now finds itself on the losing side of the wager. It reported last week that it is on the hook for $1.8 billion in fuel hedging

costs through 2018. That may sound painful, but overall the airline emerges a winner on its overall fuel bill. Even when hedging losses are taken into account, Southwest will see a net gain of $189 million in Q4. Southwest is cutting the percentage of fuel it buys on hedging contracts in half — to 30% to 35% in the second half of 2016, down from 60% to 70% in the last six months of 2015. It’s a similar story for Delta Air Lines, which has taken some hefty losses as it tried to protect itself with hedges. In the fourth quarter, for instance, Delta saved more than $700 million from the same period the previous year.

2 indicted in Planned Parenthood case Trevor Hughes USA TODAY

A Texas grand jury investigating video-recorded allegations that Planned Parenthood was illegally selling fetal tissue instead indicted two of the people who made the undercover videos. The grand jury in Harris County indicted David Daleiden and Sandra Merritt on a felony charge of tampering with a governmental record. Daleiden was also indicted on a misdemeanor charge of “prohibition of the purchase and sale of human organs,” Harris County District Attorney Devon

Anderson said in a statement. The grand jury declined to indict anyone from Planned Parenthood of the Gulf Coast — the initial target of the investigation. Planned Parenthood officials said violence against clinics rose dramatically as the videos were released in mid-2015. “We were called upon to investigate allegations of criminal conduct by Planned Parenthood Gulf Coast,” Anderson said in a statement. “All the evidence uncovered in the course of this investigation was presented to the grand jury. I respect their decision on this difficult case.” Daleiden and Merritt created a

fake human-tissue company and secretly recorded Planned Parenthood workers discussing the disposal of fetal tissue. Planned Parenthood officials, who have sued the two and several others involved in making the videos, say the recordings were deceptively edited and falsely portrayed the process by which tissue from aborted fetuses can be donated for medical research. “It’s become totally clear that the only people who engaged in wrongdoing are the criminals behind this fraud,” Eric Ferrero, a spokesman for Planned Parenthood Federation of America, said. Texas Gov. Greg Abbott last

summer called for the grand jury investigation, calling the allegations in the videos “repulsive and unconscionable.” Reacting to Monday’s announcement, Abbott wrote on Twitter: “Despite today’s decision in Harris Co. about Planned Parenthood, Texas will continue to protect life & investigate @PPact practices.” In an editorial for USA TODAY published online Monday, Daleiden defended the videos. “Six months after these revelations broke, Planned Parenthood still cannot deny that the shocking and indicting words on the videos were spoken by its own senior level leadership,” he wrote.

Iraq pleads for police trainers to help thwart ISIL Tom Vanden Brook USA TODAY

Iraq’s urgent need for more police officers to secure neighborhoods in Ramadi and other cities freed from Islamic State control is expected to be a priority of Defense Secretary Ashton Carter’s when he meets next month with allies in Brussels, officials said Monday. Iraqi Prime Minister Haider alAbadi requested the trainers when he met with Carter at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, and Carter plans to WASHINGTON

press allies to supply more. Carabiniere, Italian paramilitary police, are leading the training and have put 1,138 Iraqi officers through training courses. Nearly 1,000 more are receiving instruction. The Italians have 95 carabiniere trainers in Iraq, and are sending 15 more to the northern city of Irbil to open a training unit there. The Italians have helped field effective forces, but Carter wants other countries to contribute trainers as well, said a senior Defense official who spoke on condition of anonymity because the official was not authorized to

speak publicly. The Pentagon views trained local police as key to the effort to wrest control of Iraqi towns from

fighters from the Islamic State, or ISIL, and to maintain order. ISIL fighters swept across large blocs of Iraq in 2014, seizing major cit-

ies such as Mosul and Ramadi as Iraqi soldiers and police fled with little resistance. Mosul, Iraq’s second-largest city after Baghdad, remains occupied by ISIL forces. Just as critical will be keeping the force non-sectarian, said Michael O’Hanlon, a military analyst at the Brookings Institution. ISIL emerged, in part, because of Sunni persecution by the Shiiteled government of former prime minister Nouri al-Maliki. “Having 100,000 well-trained police is crucial if cities like Ramadi and ultimately Mosul are to be not just liberated but kept away from ISIL,” O’Hanlon said.

History asks: Is Trump a demagogue?

war hero. He’s a war hero because he was captured. I like people who weren’t captured.’’

Rick Hampson @rickhampson USA TODAY

DON’T SWEAT THE DETAILS

Donald Trump has been called a demagogue by critics ranging from Garrison Keillor to George Pataki. I don’t know if Trump fits the political science definition, but I know who did. Joe McCarthy, a Republican U.S. senator from Wisconsin, turned the government upside down in the early 1950s with a witch hunt for Communists. He muddied reputations and ended careers until he was censured by the Senate in 1954. In college I was assigned Richard Rovere’s Senator Joe McCarthy, a critical but not entirely unsympathetic biography. McCarthy, wrote Rovere, was “a first-rate organizer and galvanizer of mobs, a skilled manipulator of public opinion and a genius at that essential American strategy: publicity.’’ That sounds familiar. As does this: McCarthy “exploited the American party system in brilliant and daring ways, while being himself beyond partisanship. … He was a Republican who started as a Democrat.’’ Trump was a Democrat until 1987. In 1952, British Prime Minister Winston Churchill wrote an anti-McCarthy passage into Queen Elizabeth II’s coronation speech. In 2015, Prime Minister David Cameron said if Trump “came to visit our country I think he would unite us all against him.’’

McCarthy not only had no longterm plan to eradicate communism, “he had no program for tomorrow morning.’’ Trump has offered relatively few specifics about how he’d achieve certain goals, such as how to force Mexico to pay for the wall he wants along the border. DON’T SWEAT THE FACTS

“There has never been the slightest reason to suppose (McCarthy) took what he said seriously or that he believed the nonsense he spread.’’ Trump in his The Art of the Deal: “I play to people’s fantasies. … A little hyperbole never hurts.” ATTRACT THE FRINGE

TAP VOTERS’ ANGER

TAKE ON A HERO

McCarthy was not the only politician talking about internal communism, but “it was McCarthy who had mastered it and given it its name before he had any significant power in government or (Republican) party affairs.’’ Immigration was a hot issue before Trump. But, he said in August, “if it weren’t for me, you wouldn’t even be talking about

McCarthy “built a coalition of the aggrieved … deeply affronted by various tendencies over the preceding decades.’’ For Trump, voter anger is mother’s milk. TALK FAST AND LOOSE

McCarthy called Gen. George C.

Europol: ISIL aiming for more attacks in ’16 ‘Most significant’ terror threat in 10 years, agency says Oren Dorell USA TODAY

Europe’s top police agency warned Monday that the Islamic State will try to launch more deadly attacks in 2016. The warning came as Europol opened a new European Counter Terrorism Centre, created in response to the Nov. 13 Paris attacks in which nine assailants killed 130 people. The opening comes after the Islamic State, also known as ISIL or ISIS, released a video claiming to show the Paris suspects as they carried out beheadings earlier in Syria and delivered threats to their enemies. “There is every reason to expect that IS (the Islamic State), IS-inspired terrorists or another

religiously inspired terrorist group will undertake a terrorist attack somewhere in Europe again, but particularly in France, intended to cause mass casualties among the civilian population,” Europol said in its report. The report by the European Union’s chief law enforcement agency makes clear that virtually anyone in Europe could be at risk, according to the Associated Press. “Without reliable intelligence on the intentions, activities and contacts and travels of known terrorists, it is nearly impossible to exactly predict when and where the next terrorist attack will take place, and what form it will take,” the Europol report said. Rob Wainwright, director of Europol, said 5,000 European nationals had left to fight with militant groups in Syria and Iraq, and they pose significant threats upon returning to their countries, according to the Deutsche Welle

of major terrorist attacks,” Wainwright said at a news conference. The grisly video, released Sunday, is spoken mostly in French but ends with a threat in English to commit more attacks against all who participate in the U.S.-led coalition conducting airstrikes

Dozens seek chance to be police chief in Ferguson Working alongside Justice Department could help and hurt Kevin Johnson USA TODAY

When Chicago formally closed its application period for police superintendent candidates earlier this month, some openly fretted whether anyone could manage a department in such turmoil. Just 300 miles away, another city whose troubles have come to define the struggles of law enforcement across the nation in the past 16 months knows that challenge all too well. Ferguson, Mo., spokesman Jeff Small said “several dozen” applicants are now vying to take command of an agency that has been without a permanent chief for nearly a year. Authorities are on track to make a selection, Small said, by March. And if the task of remaking the department, fractured in the aftermath of the 2014 shooting of a black teenager, isn’t big enough, it also comes with the almost certain requirement that any new chief will have to work in the shadow of the Justice Department, which could prove challenging and beneficial. Local and Justice officials have expressed continuing optimism

Demonstrators mark the first anniversary of the shooting of Michael Brown in August along West Florrisant Street. that they will reach an agreement to revamp the agency as part of a decree to guard against racially biased law enforcement practices that have long plagued local policing, according to last year’s scathing Justice examination of law enforcement in the small St. Louis suburb. The Justice Department’s continuing close scrutiny, some law enforcement analysts said, could help the new chief establish public trust with a wary community. “The involvement of the federal government means that there will be resources available to a chief that generally wouldn’t be there,” former Boston Police Commissioner Ed Davis said.

“The downside is that this will be a lot of work, but you are not going to be alone in a long-term responsibility.” Glendale, Ariz., Police Commander Andre Anderson, who served a five-month term as Ferguson’s interim chief before departing last month, said any candidate faces a formidable task that can be both “rewarding” and “exhausting.” “The person who gets this job will have to have an exceptional temperament, a strong grasp of procedural justice while maintaining high visibility in a community that requires immediate accountability,” said Anderson, who has since returned to his Ari-

zona post. While in Ferguson, Anderson said he spent days and late nights seeking to build relationships within the community and inside the police department’s troubled ranks, which for months had been the target of civil unrest. Anderson said he formed alliances with local pastors and social workers, often venturing into fraught neighborhoods where officers — let alone the police chief — had rarely tread except to respond to emergency calls. The work, he said, gradually paid off. Inside the department, Anderson said he sought to deal with “internal biases” by bringing protesters to meet officers at roll calls and at other non-confrontational settings “to try to get them to understand each other.” He said those efforts, too, were encouraging, though they also exposed personnel problems that required immediate discipline. The last permanent chief, Tom Jackson, resigned last March following the release of Justice’s examination of policing operations in the wake of Michael Brown’s fatal shooting by white officer Darren Wilson. Although the Justice report cleared Wilson, it found disturbing evidence of racial bias throughout the criminal justice system in a city where AfricanAmerican residents represent 67% of the city’s population.

against Islamic State fighters in Syria. The video includes footage of British Prime Minister David Cameron giving a speech, with a warning from the Islamic State that whoever stands with the unbelievers “will be a target for our swords.” Also shown is extensive footage of the Paris attacks from TV news and social media. Several frames show digitized crosshairs superimposed over security officers in Paris and U.S. fighter jets taking off from an aircraft carrier. The Europol report said the Islamic State represents “the most significant terrorist threat in over 10 years” to face Europe. Dimitris Avramopoulos, the European Commissioner for Migration, Home Affairs and Citizenship, called on EU member states to support the new counterterrorism center, which he called “a major strategic opportunity for the EU.” Corrections & Clarifications USA TODAY is committed to accuracy.

Mizzou prof faces assault charge for incident during campus protest Aamer Madhani USA TODAY

University of Missouri assistant professor Melissa Click was filmed in November making physical contact with and berating a student journalist.

If convicted, Click could face up to a $300 fine and 15 days in jail.

A misdemeanor assault charge was filed Monday against a University of Missouri assistant professor who received nationwide attention when she called for “some muscle” to help remove a student journalist from a campus protest in November. Melissa Click, who works in Missouri’s communication department, faces a Class C misdemeanor simple assault charge for the incident, in which she was filmed having physical contact and berating a student journalist, according to the office of Columbia, Mo., prosecutor Steve Richey. The student was trying to conduct interviews at a site set up on the university’s quad by students protesting the treatment of African Americans by administrators. A video of the confrontation, which was taken by student journalist Mark Schierbecker, begins with a group of protesters yelling and pushing another student journalist, Tim Tai, who was trying to photograph the campsite. At the end of the video, Schierbecker approaches Click, who calls for “some muscle” to remove him from the protest area. She then appears to grab at Schierbecker’s camera. Schierbecker filed a simple assault complaint with the campus police department days after the incident. Richey’s office confirmed that charge has been filed but declined further comment. If convicted, Click could face up to a $300 fine and 15 days in jail. Interim chancellor Hank Foley told reporters Monday that Click will not be working in the classroom for the rest of this week. He added that he’s also asked the provost and Arts & Science dean to determine if Click should be kept out of the classroom beyond that to avoid an awkward situation for her and her students.

I’ve always been drawn to a tough fight,” he said. Among Republicans, Donald Trump and Ted Cruz maintained their battle as they sit atop most polls ahead of Monday’s GOP caucuses. In an interview with CNN, Trump continued to question Cruz’s temperament, saying the Texas senator could not “make deals” as president because so many lawmakers dislike him. “We can’t have a guy who stands in the middle of the Senate floor and every other senator thinks he’s a whack job, right?” said the New York businessman, who campaigned Monday in New Hampshire. Cruz, who says Trump is attacking him because the polls have tightened, said GOP voters should go with him because he has the more conservative record on issues, such as health care and opposition to abortion. “As conservatives continue to unite, we will win,” Cruz told reporters in Manchester, Iowa. Cruz also picked up an endorsement from a onetime Republican opponent, former Texas governor Rick Perry. In a video put out by the Cruz

campaign, Perry said his fellow Texan is ready to “take on the Washington cartel,” secure the border, strengthen the military, and improve health care for veterans. “Ted is the leader that we need to reignite the promise of America,” Perry said. Marco Rubio, who is third in many Iowa Republican polls, stressed defense issues and Supreme Court appointments during an appearance with Sen. Joni Ernst, R-Iowa. The Florida senator told reporters he feels good about his campaign in Iowa, and “we’ll see what it translates to a week from tonight.” Other Republicans prepared for the final days of the Iowa campaign, including a debate Thursday in Des Moines. Retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson proposed the creation of a federal agency to coordinate cyber security efforts, while Jeb Bush in a Medium post said he would put more conservative judges on the federal bench. Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., told Fox News that polls could be “way off,” and have been unreliable in past races.

Zika, a mosquito-borne virus linked to birth defects, is expected to spread to the United States and most of the Americas, the World Health Organization said Monday. The virus has already traveled to 21 countries and territories since May 2015, according to WHO, and was linked to the birth of children with smaller-thanusual brains in Brazil. The virus has affected as many as 1.3 million in Brazil, according to the Associated Press, where Olympics venues in Rio de Janeiro will undergo daily inspections to prevent the virus from spreading at this summer’s Games.

STORM DAMAGE COULD COST EAST COAST BILLIONS Doyle Rice USA TODAY

The economic damage from the blizzard that has crippled the East Coast will likely rise into billions of dollars, insurance experts said. “This event has all the makings of a multibillion-dollar economic cost,” said meteorologist Steven Bowen of Aon Benfield, a London-based global re-insurance firm. The costliest winter storm was the March 1993 superstorm that caused close to $8.7 billion in damage, according to the Weather Channel. “This flooding is worse than (2012’s Superstorm) Sandy,” said Preston Lee, who evacuated Saturday and said there was 30 inches of water in his Lewes, Del., home. “The storm surge and pounding waves caused considerable

water damage to homes, businesses, beaches and coastal infrastructure,” Aon Benfield said in a report it issued Sunday night. “When combining the actual physical damage to residential and commercial properties, plus automobiles and infrastructure, and adding business interruption losses, we’re potentially looking at one of the costlier winter storm events in recent memory,” Bowen said. Aon Benfield said the insurance industry will need more

time to fully assess damage from the complex weekend weather event, which included snow, ice, wind, coastal flooding, tornadoes and hail from Florida to Massachusetts. For comparison, Bowen said a similar blizzard two decades ago in January 1996 had an economic cost of $4.6 billion (in 2016 dollars). “Obviously no two events are identical, but this provides some context as to how costly these storms can be,” he said. Another re-insurance firm, Munich Re, said Monday that much of the damage cost depends on the conditions over the next few days. Though the cost of damage from blizzards is usually lower than from hurricanes, the economic loss from an entire winter can be significant, Munich Re said. The overall loss from last winter — which dumped record snow on Boston — was $4.6 billion, the company said.

PALM SPRINGS The family of a young man who was killed by police three months ago has filed a federal lawsuit against Indio, Calif., claiming an officer shot the man without justification and deleted video footage to hide his wrongdoing. The lawsuit alleges that the shooting of Sammy Villarreal was captured by both security cameras and a camera phone, but that Indio police officers seized the recordings and erased the footage. The suit is the third ongoing lawsuit alleging excessive force by Indio police. Villarreal, 18, of Thousand Palms, Calif., was shot during a slow-speed car chase in the parking lot of an Indio apartment complex on Oct. 14. Police have said that Villarreal tried to escape by accelerating backward, crashing into a police car, which prompted officers to open fire. However, the family’s lawsuit contends the shooting was unjustified because no one was in the path of Villarreal’s vehicle. The two officers at the scene were standing to the sides and the front of the car. The Indio Police Department did not immediately respond to a request for comment. The department has a policy against commenting on lawsuits. Indio police have previously identi-

Twitter has 412 years to fix itself LARGE CASH RESERVES

Matt Krantz @mattkrantz USA TODAY

Twitter’s stock is crashing. Management is in upheaval. But the microblogging site has one giant thing going for it — $3.5 billion in cash — which buys it lots of time. Shares fell 82 cents, or 4.6%, to $17.02 Monday after CEO Jack Dorsey said four top executives were leaving the company. Stock is down 68% from its highest point over the past 52 weeks. That performance indicates a serious situation. Investors seem to be preparing for the worst — but the company’s financial standing indicates it has plenty of time to get things right: 412 years, to be exact. Twitter, like many of the most valuable recent technology initial public offerings, has a giant advantage: cash. And lots of it. The company ended its most recently reported quarter with $3.5 billion in cash and investments, S&P Capital IQ says. If the company only burns $8.5 million a year in free cash — as it did the past 12 months — that’s enough cash to last 412 years. That’s a long time for Dorsey to figure things out. It is important to note that Twitter does have $1.4 billion in long-term debt. But the servicing of that debt is already included in the

company’s free cash flow. Debt could cause issues, though, if the company’s interest rate is driven higher if it looks to refinance in the future. Twitter is the best example of a company with the deep pockets to endure a serious market disruption. Online gaming company Zynga is another. Shares of Zynga are down 75% over the past five years as investors lament the company’s uneven growth and perpetual losses. And it has burned $52 million in 12 months. The bright spot: Zynga ended its most recently reported period with nearly $1.1 billion in cash and investments. That would last 20 years at the current burn rate — and gives the company lots of time to find the next FarmVille.

CEO, he called the failure to grow the popularity of Twitter “unacceptable.” Yet investors looking for a sense of Twitter’s next steps were left guessing from the management shake-up, the latest in a series that included the exit of CEO Dick Costolo in July. Twitter didn’t name any new hires, instead widening the description of two of Dorsey’s top lieutenants. Chief technology officer Adam Messinger will takeover all of engineering and product and chief operating officer Adam Bain will take on more duties, overseeing the media and human resources teams on an interim basis, Dorsey said. Twitter spokeswoman Natalie Miyake declined to comment. Twitter plans to announce two new board members, including a high-profile media personality, and a new chief marketing officer, according to two people familiar with the matter but not authorized to discuss it publicly. Dorsey has taken steps to stabilize Twitter since taking over as CEO, overseeing a wave of layoffs to reduce costs and sharpen product focus, naming Google’s former business chief Omid Kordestani as Twitter’s executive chairman and working on new features to make Twitter easier and more intuitive to use, such as “Moments.” Executives are also considering increasing Twitter’s 140-character limit to 10,000. The management shake-up follows years of instability. Twitter’s advertising business, led by Bain, has performed well. But user growth has stalled as rivals such as Facebook, Facebook-owned services Instagram and WhatsApp and Snapchat all race ahead.

Manufacturing giants Johnson Controls and Tyco International plan to merge in another example of a controversial tax inversion, creating a conglomerate with $32 billion in annual revenue. The deal marks the latest occurrence of a corporate inversion, in which a U.S.-based company acquires a foreign firm and switches its headquarters to the foreign firm’s home to lower its tax bill. Milwaukee-based Johnson Controls will shift its legal and global headquarters to Tyco’s Cork, Ireland, base but will house its primary operational headquarters in Milwaukee. The combined company hopes to tie together complementary businesses — including heating

and air-conditioning systems, fire protection and security technology — as the home-products industry transitions toward a new world defined by smart, connected products known as the “Internet of Things.” “The technology is converging,” Johnson Controls CEO Alex

Molinaroli said on a conference call. “That’s the real opportunity that’s coming along.” Shareholders of Johnson Controls will own 56% of the combined company, which will be known as Johnson Controls plc, and receive $3.9 billion in cash. Tyco shareholders will own 44%. Johnson Controls plans to press ahead with its previously announced plans to spin off its remaining automotive seating and interiors business into an independent company called Adient at the beginning of its 2017 fiscal year. The companies expect to shed $500 million in costs over the first three years of the deal and expect to save $150 million annually in taxes through the inversion. S&P Capital IQ analyst Efraim Levy said in a research note there is “significant potential” for savings through the combined operation.

Johnson Controls, known as JCI to many in the industry, had been pruning its operations in recent years, selling off its automotive electronics business and global workforce solutions unit. The company identified batteries and building products, such as heating and air-conditioning technology, as its primary businesses. Tyco broke up into three companies in 2012 and now focuses on fire protection and security products, including service, installation and monitoring. The companies said they’ve identified immediate opportunities to sell their products to each other’s customers. Molinaroli will be chairman and CEO for the first 18 months following the deal’s completion, and Tyco CEO George Oliver will become president and COO during that period. Afterward, Oliver will become CEO and Molinaroli executive chairman.

AMERICA’S MARKETS What to watch Matt Krantz @mattkrantz USA TODAY

The pros keep telling investors the market isn’t headed into a bear. But what if it did? There have been 12 bear markets since 1946 — which can give investors a bit of insight on what to expect if things do get worse, Sam Stovall of S&P Capital IQ says. During the 12 bear markets, it took about nine months for the stocks to drop the 20% needed to meet the unofficial definition of a bear market. During these ugly periods for stocks, the market dropped an average of 33% — and shredded 70% of the previous bull markets’ gains. Getting back to even can take some time. It took more than two years, on average, for investors to have their bear market losses

erased. The massive market meltdowns, where stocks lost 51% or more, took almost five years to recover. It’s far too soon to pronounce a bear market. For now, the Standard & Poor’s 500 is down about 10%. That’s a correction, not a bear. If it remain a correction, it’s much less concerning. There have been 56 pullbacks of price declines between 5% and 9.99% since 1946, Stovall says. These events are over before investors can get overly worried about them. These pullbacks, on average, have been drops of 7% or more and took just two months to recover from. The market now is a bit worse, but even corrections aren’t all that horrific. There have been 20 corrections of 10% to 19.9% since World War II erasing an average of 14% of the S&P 500’s value. The corrections have taken an average of four months to recover.

No sale signs, but there are opportunities

Q: When will stocks be cheap? Matt Krantz

mkrantz@usatoday.com USA TODAY

A: The market’s horrible start to the year is putting stocks on sale, but that doesn’t mean they’re cheap. Investors are paying $15 for every dollar companies in the Standard and Poor’s 500 are expected to report as profit this year, S&P Capital IQ says. That’s down from the $16 investors were paying for every dollar of future earnings since 2000 — indicating the market is a bit cheaper than it was, according to S&P Capital IQ’s Sam Stovall. While stocks will set you back a bit less than they did before, that doesn’t mean the market is dirt cheap. Stocks are still more pricey than they’ve been the 11 times since World War II when the S&P 500 fell 20% or more, Sam Stovall of S&P Capital IQ says. Investors have paid a much cheaper average of $11.60 for every dollar of earnings the past 12 months during these periods of extreme distress. Stocks, though, don’t require a fire sale to erupt before they can recover. Recession fears may have intensified, but the economy still remains on track to grow, economists say. Earnings during the fourth quarter of 2015 are expected to fall 6%, S&P Capital IQ says. But if you strip out the 72% decline expected from energy companies, profit would be up 0.4%. That’s hardly a catastrophe and could be an opportunity.

McDonald’s gets fourth-quarter boost from all-day breakfast Hadley Malcolm @hadleypdxdc USA TODAY

McDonald’s turnaround plan is showing further signs of traction as the company beat fourth-quarter earnings estimates Monday. The fast-food giant’s all-day breakfast strategy, rolled out nationally in October, also appears to be winning over customers. The company credits all-day breakfast with helping send sales at U.S. restaurants open at least a year up 5.7% in the quarter ended Dec 31. That marks the second

McDonald’s credits all-day breakfast with helping sales rise for the second quarter in a row. Shares finished up Monday, closing at $119.21.

quarter in a row of same-store sales growth in the U.S., after seven quarters of declines.

McDonald’s has faced a difficult road as it combats changing diet habits and increased competition from chains that are more focused on fresh food. It has taken a series of steps to appeal to customers and please investors, including franchising more restaurants, updating the menu and committing to use only cage-free eggs over the next 10 years. The company also benefited in the quarter from improved efficiencies such as faster drive-thru times, says Jack Russo, consumer staples analyst with Edward Jones. “Overall, the quarter was better than expected,” he said.

On a call with investors, McDonald’s CEO Steve Easterbrook said customer feedback on measures such as food quality and friendliness have improved but that McDonald’s needs to work harder to win back customers and “increase frequency of visits.” The highly-anticipated rollout of an all-day breakfast menu last year seems to be helping, leading existing customers to up their orders and drawing in customers “who otherwise would have gone elsewhere,” Easterbrook said. “All-day breakfast positions us to regain marketshare we’ve given up in recent years.”

McDonald’s reported revenue of $6.34 billion, down from $6.57 billion in the year-ago quarter. Earnings per share were $1.31. The stronger U.S. dollar hurt earnings per share by 11 cents. Still, both measures beat analyst expectations for revenue of $6.24 billion and earnings per share of $1.23, according to S&P Capital IQ. Revenue for the year declined to $25.4 billion from $27.4 billion, with earnings per share of $4.80, relatively unchanged from $4.82 in the year-ago quarter. Global same-store sales increased 5% in the quarter and 1.5% for the year.

Bryan Alexander USA TODAY

Joy is not alone in eyeing Oscar glory. The Pixar hit Inside Out ($356 million in theaters), a tale that follows the emotions inside a young girl’s head (including Amy Poehler as Joy), nabbed an Oscar nomination this month for best animated feature, surprising no one. But Pixar’s popular The Good Dinosaur ($120 million) was missing, while obscure films such as the Brazilian Boy & the World and the Japanese anime film When Marnie Was There proved to be overachievers. The diverse field makes sense to Inside Out producer Jonas Rivera. “I love that they are a bit shocking and a little bit different — that’s why it’s a cool medium,” Rivera says. “Animation isn’t just big studio pictures with star actors. It’s everything.” Here’s how to make sense of this “everything” race ahead of the awards show Feb. 28: THE BIG SNUBS

sidelines. Though Dinosaur had praise and Pixar pedigree, it also had the disadvantage of being the less enthusiastically received of two Pixar films released in 2015. The Peanuts Movie, featuring the critically triumphant return of Charles M. Schulz’s comic strip, and Good Dinosaur received best-feature nominations in the prestigious Annie Awards, which honor excellence in animation. But Blue Sky Studios’ Peanuts, which earned a solid $129 million, also whiffed on the Oscar nominations, just as The Lego Movie was a surprise omission last year. “You can count on at least one indie knocking out a big studio movie each year,” says Pete Hammond, awards columnist for Deadline.com. “This year, it was more than one.”

Boy & the World, directed and written by Alê Abreu, follows a young village boy entering city life to reunite with his family. A limited December release brought in $17,580 from two theaters. With the boost of a nomination, it will begin to roll out in New York this weekend. When Marnie Was There, written and directed by Hiromasa Yonebayashi, is a coming-of-age story about a girl who forms a mysterious friendship after being sent to a seaside town. With Hailee Steinfeld and Mad Men’s Kiernan Shipka providing the English voices, Marnie took in $561,000 from its U.S. release in May. Both films are distributed by GKids, the increasingly influential company that garnered two 2015 animated feature nominations with Song of the Sea and The Tale of the Princess Kaguya. STOP-MOTION CONTENDERS

Two stop-motion entries show the breadth of the category, starting with the wordless Shaun the Sheep Movie created by Britain’s Aardman Animations and built around characters introduced by the studio’s Oscar-winning Wallace and Gromit Boy & the World was in only two theaters last year.

short A Close Shave. The PG-rated family film was a quirky family favorite, taking in $19 million. Meanwhile, director Charlie Kaufman’s critically adored Anomalisa ($1.4 million on 143 screens) is a dark, adult tale featuring a sex scene. It’s the first R-rated animated film to earn an Oscar nomination. THE CLEAR FAVORITE

Every expert on awards site GoldDerby.com has chosen Inside Out as the film to take home the Oscar. The Pete Docter-directed film already has marched through Critics’ Choice, Golden Globes and was victorious again at Saturday’s Producers Guild Awards. “Inside Out was so good that it was seriously considered a best-film possibility,” says Tom O’Neil, GoldDerby editor. “It’s a virtual lock here.”

Star Trek’s 50th birthday is turning into quite the Enterprise. Events tied to the golden anniversary of the huge TV and film franchise, which launched with a weekly NBC series on Sept. 8, 1966, are ready to launch. “We are talking about one of the most influential franchises of all time, but also one of the most beloved with arguably the most passionate and invested fan base in the world,” says Liz Kalodner, executive vice president of CBS Consumer Products, which is presenting the events (details at StarTrek.com). On a practical level, Star Trek’s influence can be seen in everything from space exploration to flip cellphones (the communicator) to virtual reality (the holodeck), but it inspires philosophically, too, says William Shatner, the original Captain Kirk. “What’s out there? What’s going on? Are they coming this

way? Are we going that way? Dark matter. Ninety percent of the universe is unknown. Unknown!” Shatner says, shifting from mysterious whisper to animated wonder. “The magic of the universe was brought to a lot of people’s eyes and ears by Star Trek.” Upcoming events include: uStar Trek — 50 Artists. 50 Years. The exhibit, to be unveiled at San Diego’s Comic-Con in July, will feature Trek-inspired art by 50 artists, including Mr. Spock himself, the late Leonard Nimoy. It travels to other locations worldwide. uTrek Talks. Think TED Talks inspired by tricorders, alien species and the Prime Directive. Starting in July, schools, science museums and entertainment venues around the world will feature experts leading discussions on topics examined in Star Trek, including space exploration, medical technology and cultural diversity. “It made such a difference to television as well as to the world’s

Later series featured a woman and an AfricanAmerican man at the helm. uThe Starfleet Academy Experience. Fans can enroll at Starfleet Academy in a program opening in May at the Canada

Aviation and Space Museum in Ottawa and in June at the Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum in New York. “Cadets” will take part in a interactive environment, learning about engineering, medical diagnostics, communication and navigation from a Trek perspective. In addition to a 50th anniversary convention planned for August in Las Vegas, the initial Star Trek fan gathering in New York, held in 1972, will be commemorated on Labor Day weekend with Mission New York. The official celebration already has begun with Star Trek: The Ultimate Voyage, a 100-city concert tour featuring an orchestra playing the franchise’s music accompanied by scenes from the many films and TV series. Nostalgia clearly is part of the appeal, but Star Trek is hardly dormant on the screen. The latest film, Star Trek Beyond, opens in theaters in July, and a new series launching on CBS’ All Access streaming platform is due early next year.

Double Take

Dr. Wes Crenshaw and Gabe Magee

Casual hookups the new normal?

Wes: “I just don’t want to be in a relationship,” “Let’s not put a label on it,” “Can’t we just keep it casual?” These have become the dating catchphrases of an entire generation of teens and young adults. On the surface, parents might assume today’s kids are just hanging out and remaining friends, leaving more serious commitments and the sex that goes with them, for later in life. That would be about half true. Youth culture is definitely leaving commitment behind, but it isn’t exactly reserving sex for exclusive, monogamous unions. Hooking up started as a trend a decade ago. Today it’s the norm and long-term, committed relationships are to be avoided like salmonella. It’s a problematic idea. Young people — typically, but not exclusively, men — want all the benefits of a relationship, sex, companionship, and emotional attachment, without the cost of commitment. Young women traditionally pushed back against this asynchronicity, which has of late only served to make young men more uncomfortable. Don’t worry, guys. Any remaining resistance to casual culture is waning, with fewer and fewer teen and young adult women linking sexual expression and obligation. Few would mistake me for an old-fashioned kind of guy. I try hard to judge these trends without being judgy. But this one is vexing for me because it predisposes a whole generation to dispose of each other. So, here’s what I’d propose instead: Let’s forget this dumb idea that any two people can coexist without “being in a relationship,” and accept the fact that every pairing we undertake in life creates a bond that should be Shutterstock Image treated with a reasonable degree of respect and dignity.

New strength institute plans open house Athletic Strength Institute, a new Lawrence fitness business, is now open and accepting new athletes. It will host an open house from 7 to 9 p.m. Friday at 720 E. Ninth St., Unit 3. The open house will give the community an opportunity to tour the facility, visit with trainers and learn more about the business’ services, said Kris Millsap, a spokesperson for the company.

“Athletic Strength Institute combines a professional training environment with progressive strength training methods that have been proven at every level of competition — from amateur to Olympic,” Millsap said. “Their approach is a thorough evaluation of both the athlete and their goals to create a custom regimen tailored to suit their specific needs and combined with a nutrition plan that further enhances performance.” The business’ website lists its services, which include one-on-one training, a fat-loss program called BioSignature, online training and nutrition programs, strength camps and options for soft-tissue therapy. “Each sport has specific demands just as each athlete has specific abilities,” said ASI

owner and performance director Chris Dellasega. “Our goal is to engineer a program that helps our clients meet theirs.” Appetizers from Culinaria and drinks from Decade coffeehouse will be provided at the open house. Those in attendance can also enter a drawing for prizes, including training and massages valued between $70 and $345.

both parties. Why then do teens so fear commitment? Perhaps it’s a function of the openness we see in the rest of our lives. We have the world laid before us, or so we’re told. Why would we want to chain ourselves down to one person? Skirting away from an exclusive relationship allows us to tell ourselves that we have other options. But you cannot expect your casual partner to be as flexible about exclusivity as you are. In reality, “putting a label on it” is just that, recognizing and naming what already is. It’s similar to the old saying

— if it talks like a duck and walks like a duck, it’s probably a duck. If you hang out with someone and treat him or her as a significant other, you’re in a relationship. What you call it matters less than how you live it.

Heart

Cardiology recommend exercise-based cardiac rehabilitation as a safe and effective part of therapy. Always consult with your doctor before beginning an exercise program. The key is to start exercising early in life, long before the symptoms of heart failure appear, and make it a lifelong habit. Exercise costs you nothing but time and effort. Yet it offers better prevention and treatment for the heart. With aging and certain medical conditions, heart failure can occur, even in previously fit persons. In such cases, exercise becomes more difficult and may need to be more moderate and controlled in intensity. Lawrence Memorial Hospital offers a medically-supervised Cardiac and Pulmonary Rehabilitation program and a Congestive Heart Failure Clinic for ongoing disease management and education to help keep cardiac patients out of the hospital. For more information, visit the hospital’s website at lmh.org/heart. You can also watch a video featuring Dr. Dreiling explaining the difference

between a heart attack and congestive heart failure on that page. You can learn more about the risks, diagnosis and treatment of heart disease at the LMH Healthy Hearts Fair on Feb. 20, an annual event focused on screenings and information about cardiovascular disease and its prevention and treatment.

Dear Annie: I’d like to know if this is considered spousal abuse. A young couple become born-again Christians. The husband decides he wants to go back to school to become a minister. He quits his corporate job and moves his family out of state. His wife supports him and the children for four years as best she can. He graduates and “just can’t find the right job.” He volunteers two days a week counseling people. In the meantime, they are barely getting by. They don’t have enough money to send the kids to college, and they can’t afford their daughter’s wedding. The husband has decided not to get a paying job because he’s doing “God’s work.” He sleeps late every day and spends hours on the computer writing religious blog posts. His

Appalachia gets weird in ‘Outsiders’ Part outlaw biker drama, part fairy tale, the addictive new series “Outsiders” (8 p.m., WGN) invites viewers to a clash of cultures. The battle begins when a coal company in cahoots with the state of Kentucky decides to seize Shay Mountain, the site of a rich vein of bituminous. The mountain is also the ancestral home to the reclusive Farrell clan, a tribe hundreds strong who has lived off the land for 200 years. Shunning modern conveniences and contact with outsiders, they govern themselves by an ancient code and even speak their own language. David Morse (”Concussion”) stars as Big Foster, son and heir to the tribe’s leader, or Bren’in, Lady Ray (Phyllis Somerville). Big Foster is a tad too impatient to inherit the mantle of leadership. Joe Anderson plays Asa, a Farrell clansman who committed the unpardonable sin of leaving the mountain for 10 years. Lady Ray keeps him caged up until she can figure out if his presence is part of a greater prophecy. The Farrells are both respected and feared by their neighbors because of their alleged occult powers. A local sheriff (Thomas M. Wright) warns local officials and arrogant corporate-types not to trifle with the tribe. Apparently, avoiding modern notions (like literacy and medicine) has enabled the Farrells to retain ancient knowledge and a deep connection to nature. Wolves show up looking fearful and cosmic. Are they protecting the clan? Or are they just another incarnation of the Farrells? If the power struggle within the clan and the battle with the modern world makes for great drama, the portrayal of these “Outsiders” verges on the over-the-top. It reflects not so much the anthropology of deep Appalachia as the obsessions of cable programming. Seen cavorting in celebration, the Farrells party like the cast of “Duck Dynasty” at Burning Man. How did these illiterate folks jerry-rig their all-terrain vehicles “Mad Max”-style? These “Moonshiners” have been “Doomsday Preppers” for two centuries going. Tonight’s other highlights O Peggy focuses on Zero Matter on “Marvel’s Agent Carter” (8 p.m., ABC, TV-PG). O “Bizarre Foods: Delicious Destinations” (8 p.m., Travel, TV-PG) enters its third season.

Aimless in Ames IOWA STATE 85, KANSAS 72

Kansas loses poise, lead

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Ames, Iowa — Kansas University’s last three road games have resulted in ... an 11-point loss at West Virginia, a 19-point shellacking at Oklahoma State and now a 13-point drubbing Monday at Iowa State.

Self left Hilcom/kubton Coliseball12516 um happier or more concerned than he left WVU Coliseum or Gallagher-Iba Arena. “I don’t think you are ever happy when you get your (butt) kicked,” Self said after KU dropped to 16-4 overall and 5-3 in the Big 12, exact same records as Iowa State. “I think the other two games I was more disappointed from an intangible standpoint. Today I was more disappointed from a poise standpoint. We didn’t exercise much poise when it got tight. We cut it to four, 66-62, and had a chance. We didn’t play well after that.” The Jayhawks also slipped badly a bit earlier than that part of the game. KU committed five straight turnovers after grasping a 57-55 lead at 9:50. An 11-0 ISU run, one that stretched to 24-10, put this one away.

KU sorely lacking leadership Ames, Iowa — Playersonly meetings are nice. On-court leadership means a great deal more, and that can’t come from the coach. It can’t come from the equipment manager.

Buck’s Kidd back from back surgery St. Francis, Wis. — Five weeks after undergoing surgery, Milwaukee coach Jason Kidd is returning to the bench tonight when the Bucks host the Orlando Magic. Entering Monday night, Milwaukee was 19-27, in 13th place in the Eastern Conference. Kidd is ending a 17-game absence from the sideline in his second season in Milwaukee. The Bucks went 8-9 during that stretch under interim coach Joe Prunty, who is Kidd’s lead assistant.

BASEBALL

MLB might give lift to strike zone New York — Baseball’s strike zone could be getting a slight lift. Major League Baseball is studying whether to raise the bottom of the strike zone from the hollow beneath the kneecap back to the top of the kneecap. During an interview with the Associated Press on his anniversary as baseball commissioner, Rob Manfred said Monday: “I’m not in a position to predict whether it’s going to happen or not.”

Serena overpowers Sharapova again By John Pye AP Sports Writer

MIAMI GUARD SHELDON MCCLELLAN (10) CELEBRATES AFTER SCORING AGAINST DUKE during the second half Monday in Coral Gables, Fla. Miami won 80-69.

COLLEGE BASKETBALL

Miami upends Duke The Associated Press

No. 15 Miami 80, No. 24 Duke 69 Coral Gables, Fla. — To celebrate an alleyoop assist, Angel Rodriguez retreated upcourt with his arms spread like wings, a fitting pose for the high-flying Miami Hurricanes against Duke. The senior guard shook a shooting slump by making three three-pointers and added a career-high 11 assists Monday night to help Miami hand the Blue Devils their fourth loss in five games. Rodriguez scored 13 points for the Hurricanes, who led for the final 24 minutes. Sheldon McClellan scored 21 points and benefited from Rodriguez’s most spectacular assist late in the game. Miami (16-3, 5-2 Atlantic Coast Conference) beat a ranked team for the third time this season, and won by double digits for the 15th time. “We’re taking pride in making people respect us,” Rodriguez said. Coach Jim Larranaga cautioned not to make too much of the win, however. “Every game counts as one,” he said. “You beat Duke, it counts as one.” Brandon Ingram led Duke with 19 points and 10 rebounds. Grayson Allen added 17 points but shot just 6-for-17, with three of his attempts blocked.

The four recent losses for the Blue Devils (15-6, 4-4) have been by a total of 22 points. “We’ve had a chance in every game,” coach Mike Krzyzewski said. “That’s all I’m looking for. The winning effort has been there the entire time.” Rodriguez came into the game 4-for-30 from three-point range in league games but went 3-for-5 from beyond the arc in the first half to help Miami take the lead for good. “I like playing the powerhouses,” he said. “That’s what we come to the ACC for.” “Rodriguez was a great leader for them, distributing the ball, hitting the big shots,” Krzyzewski said. Rodriguez’s best play prompted the celebratory pose. Duke was mounting a rally when Rodriguez dribbled quickly through the defense in transition and tossed an alley-oop pass on the run to McClellan for a dunk and a 64-55 lead. McClellan celebrated several baskets by waving his arms jumpingjack style, encouraging more noise from the sellout crowd. The Hurricanes lingered near the student section after the game to bask in their victory. “Coach L is always preaching about just having fun playing the game,” Rodriguez said. “A lot

of credit too goes to the crowd. They were great.” The Blue Devils came into the game ranked fifth in the nation in scoring at 85.7 points but continued a recent offensive slump. They shot only 42 percent and went 6-for-20 from three-point range, while Miami shot 51 percent. Duke missed nine consecutive shots, including five in one possession, during an 8-1 Hurricanes run that put them ahead 45-35. The Hurricanes’ manto-man defense didn’t let Duke get to the free throw line much, either. The Blue Devils average nearly 26 free throws a game but went just 13-for17. “We played with a lot of energy,” McClellan said, “and it starts on the defensive end.” McClellan scored six points in the final two minutes to help seal the victory.

Year-End

Melbourne, Australia — Serena Williams attacked Maria Sharapova’s strength and it helped extend her complete domination of their rivalry, earning the six-time Australian Open champion a place in the semifinals. Top-ranked Williams beat Sharapova 6-4, 6-1 in the quarterfinals early today, her 18th consecutive victory and 19th in 21 career meetings back to 2004. “It was super-intense,” Williams said of the replay of last year’s final. Sharapova is “an incredibly intense, focused player who was No. 1 and has won so many Grand Slams for a reason. “You have to come out with a lot of fire and intensity.” Each of the six previous times Williams has won a quarterfinal at Melbourne Park, she has won the title at the season-opening Grand Slam tournament. Up next for her is fourth-seeded Agnieszka Radwanska, who beat No. 10 Carla Suarez Navarro 6-1, 6-3 to reach a Grand Slam semifinal for the fifth time. She has never won a major. Sharapova has won five majors, including the 2008 Australian title, and has been in three other finals at Melbourne Park. In her fourth-round win against No. 12 Belinda Bencic she had a career-high 21 aces. Against Williams, she had three, and seven double-faults. Sharapova broke to open the match and held for a 2-0 lead. But Williams held in the third game, closing with an ace after it went to deuce, and then broke to level at 2-2. Early in the set, points were short. As it got longer, the rallies got longer, the shrieks and grunts got louder and the emotions were fully on display. Both players struggled with their ball toss at one end, repeatedly practic-

Williams also had to concentrate hard to hold in the ninth game, when a baby screamed loudly for most of the game. She was able to protect her own serve, and go on the attack against Sharapova’s. It cost her in the game she had three break-point chances in the eighth, taking the high-risk rather than the high-percentage option with her return. But the aggressive returns finally helped Williams convert on her fourth set point, following a heavy ground stroke to the net and putting away a volley. She went on a fivegame roll until Sharapova held in the second set, and then finished it off in the seventh game after saving break points. Williams had medical

treatment between sets, and again in the second during a changeover, but it wasn’t clear what the problem was. She didn’t comment on it in her oncourt interview. Radwanska said she wouldn’t be as nervous this time around after reaching a Grand Slam semifinal for the fifth time. It’s the second time in three years that she’s reached the final four at Melbourne Park, having advanced to the semifinals in 2014 when she lost to Dominika Cibulkova after beating defending champion Victoria Azarenka in the quarterfinals. It was Radwanska’s third win in four matches against Suarez Navarro. She says, “Right now I have nothing to lose. Hopefully (I’ll) play my best tennis, otherwise I’ll be in big trouble.”

ISU turns up defense to turn tide By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

Ames, Iowa — Known largely as a team that likes to get out and go and fill up the stat sheet while lighting up the scoreboard, No. 14 Iowa State knocked off No. 4 Kansas University, 85-72, on Monday night at wild and rocking Hilton Coliseum on the strength of its defense. After giving up 43 points on 58 percent shooting to Kansas during Monday’s first half, the Cyclones slammed the door to the tune of 29 points on 40 percent shooting during a second

half in which they outscored the Jayhawks by 20. “Our second-half defense was terrific,” said ISU coach Steve Prohm, who now holds the rare distinction of being unbeaten in head-to-head matchups with KU coach Bill Self. “I’m really proud of our guys. We really played a complete half the last 15 minutes.” Asked what changed in the second half that allowed Iowa State to seize control and ultimately run away with the game, Prohm stayed away from heavy X’s and O’s talk. “We challenged ’em, and they challenged one

another, bottom line,” Prohm said. Of course, limiting Kansas, which received a game-high 23 points from Perry Ellis, was only part of the equation. The Cyclones still had to figure out how to overcome their own offensive struggles in time to surge past a Kansas team playing with a ton of confidence. Figure it out they did. Big time. Iowa State (16-4 overall, 5-3 Big 12) shot 64 percent in the second half and, at times, suffocated Kansas (16-4, 5-3) to the point the Jayhawks could barely get the ball past mid-court.

“When we turned our defense into offense, that really changed the game,” Prohm said. Iowa State point guard Monte Morris played a huge part in that, and there were more than a few players and coaches who called Morris the best player in the game. “Plain and simple, that guy over there,” said ISU big man Georges Niang when asked how the Cyclones’ reversed their fortune in the second half. “We go how he goes. That guy has carried us all season. He’s done a great job of leading this team.” Added Prohm of Morris, who finished with 21

points, nine assists and four rebounds while playing all 40 minutes: “It’s a tough job being a point guard. I’m gonna be on him a lot. He’s playing really well right now. I’ve got a lot of confidence in him, and I like the ball in his hands.” Morris said finding a way to lock down KU’s perimeter players was a focal point at halftime. “I think we guarded better (in the second half), especially myself,” he said. “I tried to do what I could tonight as far as wearing (KU’s guards) down.” In seven career games against Kansas, Morris has 37 assists and just

seven turnovers. His 9-0 ratio Monday not only helped Iowa State win the game, but also showed just how dangerous this Cyclones team can be now that it’s back in the Big 12 title hunt. “We’ve got experienced guys,” Prohm said. “It’s always a big game when it’s the next game, but, obviously, Kansas brings a little extra to it. But these guys have won championships and knew they just had to keep fighting, keep fighting. ... We were there, we were close, we were close, and then when we finally hit ’em, it’s hard to respond on the road.”

“We haven’t played with a lot of poise away from home,” Self said. “We probably played better tonight than the last two road games because at least we had a good stretch before we stunk, where the other two it didn’t seem like we had a good stretch.” Self didn’t hide his displeasure with his team’s guard play Monday night. “I can’t say what I really think, but it was disappointing because their three guards just totally dominated the game. I mean, Nader (Abdel 17 points, 3-for-3 from three), Thomas (Matt, 13 points, 3-of-6 from three) and Morris (Monte, 21 points, nine assists, 2-for4 from three) ... that’s about as big a beatdown as we’ve had with guards just dominating the game. Morris dominated the game, (but) they all played great.” KU guard Frank Mason III, who had 16 points, three assists and six turnovers, played 32 minutes. “I think it’s a little frustrating for him. When things don’t go well, he tries hard but is not as poised,” Self said. “Of course you’ve got to be poised on the road. I’d say that about all our guys. I felt if we could putter around, throw it to Perry (Ellis, 23 points, 10-for-18 shooting), let Perry work rather than our guys just cranking off shots and doing whatever … It wasn’t like we shot a

He was even displeased when Wayne Selden Jr. hit a first-half three with more than 20 seconds left on the shot clock. Selden had 11 points off 1-of-6 three-point shooting in 30 minutes. “I don’t think I did a good job of getting my teammates easy shots,” Mason said. “I had too many turnovers. Both ends of the floor I think we did a bad job.” ISU, which outscored KU 49-29 the second half, was so dominant over KU, the fans elected to not storm the court as they normally do when they beat the Jayhawks in Ames.

“We didn’t fight back late in the game,” Ellis said. “From the under-16 (-minute) timeout, they dominated the game,” Self said. His Jayhawks, who last lost three straight Big 12 road games at the conclusion of the 2014-15 season, hit 57.6 percent the first half, 40 percent the second. “You don’t make a three the second half (0-6). Not that we took a ton of threes, but on the road you have to have time to shoot. You’ve got to be able to guard your man. They played ‘Take ’em’ a lot late. Their actions didn’t hurt us as much as their players. Their guy just whipped our guy defensively for the most part late in the game.” Of KU’s five consecutive turnovers in the second half and total secondhalf meltdown, Self said: “I’d have to watch (tape).

I think a lot of it was selfinflicted. We didn’t do a good job handling the ball. I thought our shot selection was very poor, too. The first half we made a couple shots I thought were bad shots. The second half I didn’t think shot selection was great. That’s the way ball goes. When you play away from home and start missing the other team makes a run. The basket sometimes looks like a thimble. We didn’t make any shots down the stretch. The only offense we had was Perry driving it.” KU will meet Kentucky at 6 p.m. Saturday, in Allen Fieldhouse.

Saturday’s action: KU will host Kentucky at 6 p.m. Saturday in the Big 12/SEC Challenge. Iowa State also has a tough matchup. The Cyclones will play (Texas A&M 17-2, 7-0 in SEC) on Saturday in College Station, Texas. ISU’s game after that is a Tuesday contest against West Virginia in Hilton. Former KU staff member Kyle Keller is an assistant coach at A&M. l

One slip-up: Iowa State entered Monday’s action with just one home loss this season — a league setback to Baylor. “Now we’ve got to take care of home because we’ve already had one slip-up,” Prohm said before the game to the Tribune. “It’s going to take

Devonté Graham has Kansas put up just the most outgoing persix threes in the second sonality in the starting half and missed every lineup, Wayne Selden one of them, losing the Jr. the most dominant half 49-29. KU tends to one. If somebody puts have good halves when up a bad shot, Selden it makes three-pointers has no problem letting and bad halves when it him know it. But what misses them, a someif Selden is the one with what surprising formula the quick trigger? Who given that it has such says anything then? Noa gifted, diverse scorer body but the voice from in Ellis (game-high the bench. 23 points, 15 of KU’s “I think it’s very second-half points).

Self did not identify The Jayhawks left their the player in question, composure in the locker but his reaction to a room for the second first-half three-pointer half.

breaking three-pointer with 9:08 left, which put the Cyclones five points into an 11-0 run that inflated the volume of the crowd and deflated the spirit of the Jayhawks. Ellis continued to make winning plays, and Iowa State pulled away, but he had so little company. Not many games that have one lead change have that change come so late and result in the come-from-behind team winning by 13 points. “We lost some composure,” said Ellis, who was not guilty of that and had another terrific performance in his 36 minutes. “You can’t do that when you’re away, and it really hurt us.” Again. “I really believe that our shot selection is a big deal,” Self said, adding defensive intensity as a concern. “The things that you have to do away from home, I don’t think that we’re very good at doing them yet, and there wasn’t a lot of poise down the stretch.” After shooting .576 in the first half, Kansas committed 10 of its 16 turnovers in the final 20 minutes and made just four of 15 shots not taken by Ellis. He needs a lot more help than he’s getting. Soon.

Morris faring well: Iowa State guard Morris entered Monday’s game averaging 19.0 points, 5.0 assists, 4.2 rebounds and 1.8 turnovers while playing 39.6 minutes in the

Payne played for Prohm at Murray State. “(Morris) is really good. He knows how to find his teammates. The big thing is he doesn’t really commit a lot of turnovers, and that’s big for a point guard,” Payne added. l
