Bernie coming to Lawrence

Latest revenue shortfall to hit higher ed ——

Brownback: Budget woes ‘an economic problem, not a tax policy problem’ By Peter Hancock Twitter: @LJWpqhancock AP File Photo/Journal-World Illustration

Presidential candidate to hold rally Thursday at fairgrounds By Rochelle Valverde Twitter: @RochelleVerde

Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders will hold a rally in Lawrence on Thursday at the Douglas County Fairgrounds. The announcement by the Sanders campaign was welcome news for some local Democrats, who said they are often not paid as

much attention from Democratic candidates during national campaigns because of Kansas’ overwhelmingly Republican population. “One of the largest concerns for me as a Democrat is that the national Democratic Party ignores Kansas, party because we don’t have the electoral votes that they want,” said Mike WendelHummell, chairman of the

Douglas County Coalition for Bernie Sanders. “And Bernie Sanders has made a point from the beginning that this is a 50-state effort by him.” The rally will begin at 7 p.m. at the Douglas County Fairgrounds, 1930 Harper St. The event is free and open to the public. Doors will open at 4 p.m., and admission is first come, first served. Chairs and signs or banners on sticks

will not be allowed, and the campaign asks attendees to not bring bags. Sanders — a senator from Vermont whose campaign has been geared toward the middle class, and focused on issues such as wealth inequality and getting money out of politics — will host his rally at what some might Please see SANDERS, page 5A

Cruz, Rubio plan Kansas events this week Republican presidential candidates Marco Rubio and Ted Cruz will appear this week at campaign events in Kansas. Rubio’s campaign says the Florida senator will be traveling Friday to Wichita for a rally, but the details haven’t been settled, the Associated Press reports. The event would be the day before Kan-

sas Republicans caucus. Cruz will appear Wednesday at Johnson County Community College, 12345 College Blvd. in Overland Park. The U.S. senator from Texas’ campaign rally will start at 6:30 p.m. at Yardley Hall, with doors opening at 5:30. Seating is limited for the event, and prospective attendees are encouraged to

Topeka — Revenues flowing into state coffers fell $53.6 million short of expectations in February, creating a budget deficit for the current fiscal year that will likely force further budget cuts and possibly delay payments out of the state general fund. Gov. Sam Brownback responded immediately by saying Brownback he has notified Board of Regents universities that he is implementing a 3 percent, or $17 million, “allotment” cut. For Kansas University a 3 percent cut would mean about $4 million, and for KU Medical Center it would mean about $3.2 million, said Tim Caboni, KU’s vice chancellor for public affairs. However, Kansas Board of Regents spokeswoman Breeze Richardson said the board will have to decide how to allocate the $17 million cut among the six state universities. The board is expected to make that decision by the end of the week, she said. The news came barely two weeks after state lawmakers passed a budget bill that was supposed to leave the state with a projected $6 million ending balance, out of more than $6 billion in spending. But the February numbers immediately changed that $6 million balance Please see REVENUE, page 2A

Developers confirm plans for downtown grocery store By Nikki Wentling Twitter: @nikkiwentling

A representative for the owners of the old Borders building in downtown Lawrence confirmed to the City Commission on Tuesday that the property would be a grocery store, and it would likely be leased to a grocer within the next six months. Bill Fleming, an attorney for a group led by Lawrence businessmen Doug Compton and Mike

Treanor, said the owners store,” Fleming said. “It’s are considering doubling just a question of wheththe building’s squareer it’s going to be 20,000 footage — a decision that square feet or 40,000.” needs to be made before The conversation arose any other action can be at Tuesday’s City Comtaken on the project.

$70,000. Staff changed its recommendation to $35,000 after developers offered that as a compromise. Mayor Mike Amyx pressed Fleming on information about the grocery store, saying his decision on what to charge for the easement would be influenced by Fleming’s answer to whether there would be, with certainty, a grocery store developed at the site.

Most homes increased in value in past year By Elvyn Jones Twitter: @ElvynJ

A majority of county homeowners will find their homes have increased in value when they open notices from the Douglas County Appraiser’s Office. Douglas County Appraiser Steven Miles said 40,210 change-of-value notices were mailed Monday and started appearing in the mailboxes of county property owners Tuesday. Of those, 27,293 notices were posted to residential property owners, he said. Property owners will find their 2015 assessed valuation on the upper left hand side of the notices and the 2016 number on the right, Miles said. Sixty percent of residential properties in the county increased in value; 7.5 percent had no change; and 32.5 percent decreased in value, Miles said. Most of the home value changes were modest. Only 13.6 percent of the county’s residential properties increased in value by 5 percent or more, and a smaller share, 4.6 percent, decreased in value by 5 percent or more. The appraiser’s office found countywide assessed valuation increased 4.5 percent from 2015. New construction and new parcels created in splits or platting accounted for 1.25 percent of the overall increase. That 4.5 percent overall countywide assessed value increase was an early

percentage that would almost certainly decline as property owners appeal their valuations, Miles said. Last year, the assessed valuation fell by 0.8 percent after the appraiser’s office started considering appeals in March, which was close to the about 1 percent decline that normally occurs as the appeals process plays out, he said. Valuation figures from specific jurisdictions within the county would not be available for a couple of weeks, Miles said. All four types of agricultural land — dry cropland, irrigated cropland, native grassland and tame grassland — increased in value in 2015 with the overall increase averaging about 13 percent. Agricultural land value is based on its productivity potential and how that equates to the landowner’s income. The formula looks to the past to make that judgment. The years now considered had high commodity prices, and those with bad commodity prices dropped off, Miles said. County property owners will have until March 30 to appeal their 2016 valuation. Miles said they will find an appeal form on the back side of the valuation notice. That process will start with an informal meeting between the property owner and a member of the appraiser’s staff. — County reporter Elvyn Jones can be reached at 832-7166 or ejones@ljworld.com.

into a $47 million deficit, and that doesn’t even include additional money for school finance to satisfy a recent Kansas Supreme Court ruling, which Department of Education officials say could cost another $73 million. According to the Kansas Department of Revenue, individual income taxes came in $27 million below expectations, and $19 million lower than February 2015. Retail sales taxes were $12 million short of official estimates, while corporate income tax came in $7 million short. “After seeing several months of individual income tax growth and strong withholding, we’ve had a decline in February, which shows that Kansas, as many Midwestern states, is facing a downturn in the oil and gas sectors of the economy,” Revenue Secretary Nick Jordan said. Democrats, who have blamed the consistent shortfalls this fiscal year on the massive tax cuts that Brownback and the GOP-dominated Legislature pushed through in 2012 and 2013, blamed them again for the latest shortfall. “For months, Democrats have called on Gov. Brownback and his Republican allies in the Kansas Legislature to end the economic experiment,” said House Minority Leader Tom Burroughs, D-Kansas City. “The revenue numbers released today reveal the true damage of their fiscal mismanagement.” Senate Minority Leader Anthony Hensley, D-Topeka, predicted the shortfall “will force the shutdown of our schools next fall — a disaster that (Brownback) and his legislative allies will be solely responsible for.” Brownback, however, rejected those criticisms. “This is an economic problem, not a tax policy problem,” he said in a statement. “Our tax policy has been instrumental in creating more than 80,000 jobs since we took office and has resulted in a record number of Kansans working.” He also ruled out any idea of reversing those tax cuts, and specifically the one that exempts more than 330,000 business owners from paying taxes on business income, to fix the budget deficit. “In balancing the budget, I will not support or call for a tax increase on small business in Kansas,” he said. “My focus is on managing spending, not on raising taxes. Our goal is not to fund the growth of state government; it is to help the Kansas economy grow.” Senate President Susan Wagle, R-Wichita, also ruled out the possibility of tax increases, but said she prefers across-theboard budget cuts instead of targeted cuts to specific agencies. “The reduction will be small when equitably spread across the board,” she said. “Governors and business owners have taken this responsible approach to keep their doors open and their states solvent. Taxpayers are not in the mood for another tax increase; we must further reduce spending.” — Statehouse reporter Peter Hancock can be reached at 354-4222 or phancock@ljworld.com.

Proposals on tap would limit action on environment to preserve habitat for threatened and endangered species. Senate Bill 384 would amend the state’s Nongame and Endangered Species Conservation Act to provide that the department could adopt rules and regulations only to protect “critical habitat,” which is defined as an area where a threatened or endangered species is actually present, not an entire geographic area that could be occupied by such a species.

ARCHITECT MARC SHAW BRIEFLY RUNS THROUGH 11 POSSIBLE FLOOR PLANS for the proposed mental health crisis intervention center during a public design workshop on Tuesday at Bert Nash Community Mental Health Center, 200 Maine St. Bert Nash staff and members of the public narrowed the number of designs to three.

Crisis center designs narrowed 3 plans selected at workshop; sunlight, fresh air emphasized By Elvyn Jones Twitter: @ElvynJ

At the conclusion of a daylong design workshop for a proposed mental health crisis center, Amy Warren said she could see the influence she and other Bert Nash Community Mental Health Center employees had in the early planning of the center. “It’s interesting to see how our feedback comes into the planning process,” she said. “We’ve been having meetings together all day. I thought it was really interesting to see what they came up with.” Warren, the Bert Nash director of adult services, was among the Bert Nash staff members who met Tuesday morning with archi-

tects from Treanor Architects on the design of the proposed mental health crisis intervention center. Two afternoon sessions at Bert Nash followed, at which the public was invited to join Bert Nash staff to share ideas for the crisis center. The work session ended with staff and public commenting on 11 floor plans that architects developed from the day’s earlier discussions before those present voted for their favorites. Treanor Architects President Dan Rowe said the input would help the architects come up with a design that would be embraced by the community the center serves. “I hope at the end of this, you feel like you own it and tell people in the community you de-

signed it,” he said. The floor plans reflected the programmatic functions Bert Nash staff and the public advocated for the crisis center during Tuesday’s workshop and at a design charrette held last month. The proposed floor plans provided space for both short-term and long-term voluntary care, more secure space for those receiving treatment involuntarily and a substance-abuse detoxification room. The floor plans differed in how those programmatic elements were arranged around spaces for administrative, support and law enforcement uses and areas reserved for public entry.

Topeka — Kansas legislative committees will consider bills to limit, or even suspend, state activities dealing with federal environmental rules when lawmakers return to the Statehouse today after their weeklong break.

County may create criminal justice council By Elvyn Jones Twitter: @ElvynJ

As promised last week, the Douglas County Commission will consider creating a Douglas County Criminal Justice Coordinating Council at its meeting today. At a Feb. 24 work session on the proposed Douglas County Jail expansion, building of a mental health crisis intervention

center and creation of a mental health court, Commissioner Mike Gaughan said it was time the County Commission took the action, which was among the objectives the county committed to when it received a $200,000 federal grant in September. The twoyear grant will be used to hire two additional Bert Nash Community Mental Health Center case managers to help evaluate inmates at the jail for potential treatment and

would explore ways to keep the county’s justice system fair and efficient while keeping county residents safe, Gaughan said. The County Commission meets at 4 p.m. each Wednesday at the Douglas County Courthouse, 1100 Massachusetts St. A full meeting agenda is available online at douglascountyks.org.

Designs

He noted, however, that the 11 proposed floor plans were sited partly on what is now a Lawrence school district maintenance yard. Douglas County Administrator Craig Weinaug said the county was in negotiations with the school district to acquire the Second Street yard through a property trade. While he was hopeful something could be worked out, that was not guaranteed, he said. Another possible change — the closure of Second Street south of the crisis center — would require the city of Lawrence’s approval. Rowe said its closure would help create a campus-like environment, but that the Lawrence water department’s needs might dictate the street remain open. The Douglas County Commission and Bert Nash entered a memorandum of understanding in November that will have the county build the mental health crisis center on land Bert Nash owns north of its home in the Community Health Facility. Although the County Commission agreed Feb. 24 to link consideration of building the crisis center with the expansion of the Douglas County Jail and the creation of a mental health court, it has yet to decide on how to finance these projects.

Leadership Kansas, the leadership growth program of the Kansas Chamber of Commerce, has announced its 2016 Class. Seven Lawrence residents are among those selected for the program, which this year received 637 nominations, resulting in ultimately 40 Class of 2016 members.

Lawrence residents selected for this year’s class include: Michael Atwood, vice president of medical affairs and chief medical officer at Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Kansas; Daryl Craft, executive vice president and market executive at BOK Financial; Alex Delaney, owner of Indepsys Technology

Group LLC; Michelle Fales, vice president/business development officer at Silver Lake Bank; Aaron Miller, vice president of investor relations at the Kansas Chamber of Commerce; Rob Reynolds, director of legislative and external affairs at AT&T; and Charlie Sedlock, director of Hamm Inc.

Proposals

tition the federal government to intervene in Kansas because passage of the bill would put the state out of compliance with federal law. Also this morning, the House Energy and Utilities Committee is scheduled to vote on a bill that would temporarily halt any state agency activities related to implementing the federal Clean Power Plan until litigation seeking to overturn those regulations is resolved. Kansas is one of several states involved in a federal lawsuit challenging the Clean Power Plan, which requires states to dramatically reduce carbon emissions from power plants over the next 15 years. In other committee action today, the House Commerce Labor and Economic Development Committee will conduct an informational hearing on the impact of horse and dog racing on the Kansas economy. A number of bills are pending in the House that

would allow expanded gaming at dog and horse tracks. Senate Bill 318 passed the Senate and would abolish the Kansas Electric Transmission Authority, an agency established in 2005 to help coordinate development of transmission lines to move wind power from wind farms in remote rural areas to larger urban markets. All money held in KETA’s administrative fee fund, a little more than $251,000, which comes from assessments on utility bills, would be transferred to the State General Fund. The bill passed the Senate, 37-2, on Feb. 11. Sen. Marci Francisco, of Lawrence, who serves on the KETA board and is the ranking Democrat on the Senate Utilities Committee that heard the bill, was one of the two no votes.

It would also prohibit the department from designating any area as critical habitat until it completes a recovery plan for the listed species. And it would exempt most farming and ranching activities, as well as residential or commercial development, from regulations the department adopts to protect listed species. Zack Pistora, a lobbyist for the Kansas Sierra Club, said passage of bill would leave many threatened and endangered species in Kansas unprotected because currently, the Department of Wildlife, Parks and Tourism only has recovery plans for 19 of the 51 listed species in Kansas. He also said the Sierra Club, along with other national environmental and wildlife organizations, would quickly pe-

“As a commissioner, I expect that project to happen,” Amyx said. “I’ll just lay it out there for you: I want to have serious discussion on what that grocery store is going to be. It’s an absolute at this point.” Commissioners ended up voting 3-2 to charge developers $35,000 for the easement. Vice Mayor Leslie Soden and Commissioner Matthew Herbert voted against it, both wanting developers to be charged the full $70,000. Amyx made a similar comment to Fleming in December after commissioners approved a sales tax exemption on construction materials for the Pachamamas project. Fleming had said in September that the Borders site was being considered. At that time, developers were working with J.R. Lewis, owner of Checkers, to locate a grocery store downtown. It was not confirmed at Tuesday’s meeting

Other elements all designs shared were courtyards that would give patients access to sunshine and fresh air. Rowe said more such areas could be developed when designs were completed for the surrounding landscape. The public and Bert Nash staffers culled the 11 original floor plans to three by placing a sticker on their favorites. Rowe said architects from Treanor would use those three selected floor plans to start the architectural work of developing two or three early concept designs for the crisis center. Those drawings would be shared at another workshop in about 30 days, he said. The importance openair courtyards and sunlight was reinforced during a tour Bert Nash and county leaders took in September of St. Elizabeths Hospital in Washington, D.C. Helping with that tour was architect Marc Shaw, who was involved with the design of St. Elizabeths and was retained by Treanor as a consultant on the crisis center project. At the work session, Shaw said the crisis center’s proposed site benefited from its location directly to the south of the pond in the Sandra J. Shaw Community Health Park.

Commission nixes ‘food for fares’ proposal The Lawrence City Commission at its Tuesday meeting decided against an idea to give parking violators the option of paying $3 tickets with a canned food donation to a local food bank. Commissioners voted unanimously to table the issue after four commissioners — all but Commissioner Matthew Herbert, who proposed the idea — quickly voiced their disagreement with it. Mayor Mike Amyx suggested Herbert reintroduce the issue during

2017 budget talks. Herbert presented the idea Tuesday as “an opportunity to be Herbert somewhat revolutionary as a community.” But city staff recommended against it, stating in a city memorandum that it would bring in $30,000 less in annual revenue and require more work from municipal court clerks.

“

As a commissioner, I expect that project to happen... I want to have serious discussion on what that grocery store is going to be.

“It’s always tough when a commissioner’s heart is in the right place,” Amyx said. “It’s hard to say no.” Commissioner Lisa Larsen asked why the idea wasn’t proposed to instead have the city donate some proceeds from parking fines to food banks. Herbert responded that monetary donations to nonprofits were hard to track, and he wanted to ensure peoples’ donations were being used strictly for food. —Nikki Wentling

Besides the two ongoing apartment projects, the group also developed the Marriott Towneplace Suites south of Ninth and New Hampshire. “Will you bring the master plan for all of New Hampshire Street here to City Hall?” Soden asked. “I like that you guys are talking about the grocery store, but I haven’t been

Video of Lawrence elementary students’ projects gets national audience Kids’ imaginations are often put on display on their classroom walls, but social media gave one group of Lawrence elementary students a much larger platform. Over the weekend, Chevrolet posted a video to its Facebook page featuring New York Elementary second-graders’ car concepts that the company made into models. The kids’ ideas are unique, including a car with a dinosaur head and tail, one equipped with a propeller and another shaped like a triangle.

The video — which had already been viewed about 70,000 times and garnered more than 1,000 Facebook “likes” as of Sunday — tells the story of the project, which began at the end of last school year in teacher Shane Heiman’s second-grade classroom. As part of an ongoing class activity, Heiman

had his students design concepts for products like backpacks, showerheads and new cars. Heiman sent photos of the designs to companies via Twitter, sharing the feedback he received with his students. But Chevrolet’s “dream machine” promotion took the kids’ ideas much further than social media.

One example is additional money for salary increases at the Medical Center, which KU is requesting for at least the second year in a row. “It is unlikely that we will receive those enhancements, in light of the budget,” Gray-Little said. Her assessment seemed to be all but solidified by statehouse news that came out later that day revealing state revenues were $53.6 million below projections for February, prompting a potential total of $7.2 million in cuts at KU’s Lawrence and Medical Center campuses. On the private giving side, however, things are going better. KU Endowment’s Far Above campaign, has raised $1.5 billion, surpassing its fundraising goal months before it’s scheduled to wrap up, Gray-Little said. “This is an amazing endorsement of our effort,” she said. A number of construction projects — most funded by revenue sources other than state dollars, including student fees and private giving — are ongoing, Gray-Little said. She updated her KU Medical Center audience on the $350 million Central District redevelopment project, which calls for, among other buildings, a new integrated science facility on the Lawrence campus. Progress is already visible on a major new School of Medicine building, the $75 million Health Education Building being constructed near 39th Street and Rainbow Boulevard. “It seems like every week it looks different over there,” Gray-Little said. The KU Medical Center campus also is included in a goal to improve diversity and inclusion. Gray-Little said KU began assessing areas for improvement following November’s town hall forum on race, responsibility and free speech. She said most comments from students relayed experiences in which KU faculty, staff or peers said or did things that were offensive and invalidating. Gray-Little said that will be difficult to change with policy, because it’s a matter of how people relate to one another. “I think for the long term, the way we will address it is by ways we will include cultural sensitivity in all the things that we do,” she said. “And that’s a difficult order.”

QUINLAN CARTTAR, A SUPPORTER and volunteer for Sen. Bernie Sanders’ presidential campaign, leaves the Lawrence campaign office, 925 Iowa St., to go canvas voters Tuesday evening. Sanders is planning to visit Lawrence on Thursday for a 7 p.m. rally at the Douglas County Fairgrounds.

call a fitting venue. The rally will take place in the fairgrounds’ indoor arena, a large community building with a dirt floor that is often used for events involving livestock. David Sparkes, director of maintenance for Douglas County, said there are several preparations already underway for the event, including compacting the arena’s dirt floor to create a surface hard enough for wheelchairs. Before that, though, several workers cleared the arena on Tuesday of livestock pins and gating, he said. “We’re having to get the ground ready inside the building,” Sparkes said. “We were set up for a cattle weigh-in over the weekend, and everything like that, so we’re having to pull some gating.” Once the ground is ready, Sparkes said, bleachers will be installed on the concrete portions along the build-

Every

ing’s perimeter. Sparkes estimated that the arena is approximately 50,000 square feet and can hold about 5,000 people. The main area for the general public will be in the center of the arena, he said. Sanders has trailed front-running Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton in primary election results thus far. Sanders’ talking points for the Lawrence rally will be varied, including “getting big money out of politics, his plan to make public colleges and universities tuitionfree, combating climate change and ensuring universal health care,” according to a news release. Jordan Jerkovich, a member of the group KU Students for Bernie, said that Sanders’ visit to Lawrence will provide a lot of momentum for the campaign locally and in the state. Jerkovich, a senior from Salina, also said that the timing of the event indicates the campaign will continue past “Super Tuesday,” when a number of state primaries and caucuses were held. Now that those contests are over, a

good portion of electoral votes are spoken for. “I think that people are kind of suggesting that depending on the results (Tuesday), he might not make it to the end,” Jerkovich said. “But I think at least what this shows is that he’s definitely planning for a full 50-state swing for the primaries and caucuses.” Sparkes said he expects crowds to begin lining up long before the doors open, at which point he said security will begin screening people and letting them into the arena. Because of some construction on the fairgrounds, he said that parking is less than usual, but he estimated about 1,000 cars would be able to park on the grounds surrounding the arena. Several states held primaries or caucuses on Tuesday, where Clinton showed early leads. Republican and Democratic caucuses will be held across Kansas on Saturday. — Reporter Rochelle Valverde can be reached at 832-6314 or rvalverde@ljworld.com.

Topeka — Rep. Tom Sloan, R-Lawrence, filed for re-election Monday by submitting his paperwork at the Douglas County Courthouse. Sloan, who was first elected in 1994, will be running for his 12th term in the Legislature. He represents the 45th District, which includes the western fringe of Lawrence, the city of Lecompton and portions of rural western Douglas County. He is currently vice chairman of the House Vision 2020 Committee, which deals mainly in long-term planning on major policy issues. He was demoted from being chairman of that committee Sloan last year because of his work pushing a bill to expand the state’s Medicaid program, something strongly opposed by the conservative leadership of the House. So far, Sloan and Democratic Rep. Barbara Ballard are the only members of the Lawrence-area delegation who have filed for re-election Ballard, who filed in January, will be seeking her 13th term in the House. She represents the 44th District, which includes much of the west side of Lawrence between Iowa Street and Wakarusa Drive. Ballard also has a primary challenger this year. Steven X. Davis, a freelance writer, copy editor and math tutor in Lawrence, also has filed in that race.

Shoes-off policy is up to homeowner, like it or not Dear Annie: One of my wife's siblings insists that everyone remove their shoes upon entering her home. This makes me feel like I am welcome only so long as I don't get their precious house dirty. My wife and I were recently invited to her sister's house for a family party. When I didn't take off my perfectly clean shoes, she looked me in the eye and told me to remove my shoes or not to bother coming in. She said, "We are zero tolerance on that." I turned and left without saying a word. Last week, we went to another party at a different sister's home. She met us at the door with a big smile. "Keep your shoes on if you want, but wipe your feet if they are dirty." We had a good time. I

‘The Real O’neals’ not so subtle Situation comedies often involve a delicate dance of the real and the fake. Sometimes the more a comedy tries to be “real,” the faker it seems. And nothing is more “daring” and, at the same time, artificial than injecting religion into the punch lines. In some ways, “The Real O’Neals” (7:30 p.m., ABC) appears to be a natural outgrowth of the network’s current trend of ethnic sitcoms. You don’t need an advanced degree to determine the background of the families on “black-ish,” ‘‘The Goldbergs,” or “Fresh Off the Boat.” “The Real O’Neals” informs viewers of the family’s Irish-Catholicism right off the bat and then reminds us repeatedly. The narration from teenage son Kenny (Noah Galvin) tells us this, and his mother, Eileen (Martha Plimpton), all but shouts, “We’re Catholic!” in every other scene. ‘‘The Real O’Neals” is not as crude as CBS’ Irish-Catholic fiasco “The McCarthys,” but like that quickly canceled series, it’s hardly subtle. Its central story concerns a family coming to grips with the cracks in its facade of perfectionism and the “comedy” that ensues from honestly facing up to perceived dysfunctions. The pilot features revelations of every stripe from its central characters, including Kenny and his mom; police officer dad, Pat (Jay R. Ferguson, “Mad Men”); eldest son, Jimmy (Matt Shively), and precocious daughter, Shannon (Bebe Wood). Plimpton seemed far more comfortable as the slob matriarch on Fox’s “Raising Hope.” Here she comes off a bit too frantic and brittle as a priestpleasing perfectionist. “The Real O’Neals” features a few wacky narrative tricks. Kenny indulges in conversations with figures who appear in his bathroom mirror, from an object of desire to Jesus himself. While apparently set in the present day, the series has the timeless feel of a retrospective period piece, as if a 1980s crossover with “The Goldbergs” is not out of the question. A second episode (8:30 p.m.) follows.

Tonight’s other highlights O “Survivor” (7 p.m., CBS, TVPG) introduces a new twist on the immunity idol. O A killer’s technique presents a ticking clock on “Rosewood” (7 p.m., Fox, TV-14). O “Experts” determine the 10 greatest animal advertisements on “Greatest Animal Commercials Countdown” (7 p.m., CW, TV-PG). O “A Year in Space” (7 p.m., PBS, TV-PG, check local listings) follows astronaut Scott Kelly’s time on the International Space Station. O The 1960 slave-uprising epic “Spartacus” (7 p.m., TCM), directed by Stanley Kubrick and starring Kirk Douglas, all but ended the Hollywood blacklist when Dalton Trumbo received public credit for his screenplay.

As America has stepped back in the Middle East during Obama’s presidency, Russia, Iran, the Islamic State and Saudi Arabia have stepped forward. This has brought many new dangers.” work on details of a cease-fire. This diplomatic process is fragile, and dependent on the good will of Russians and others who in the past have displayed only naked self-interest. But it’s not nothing. According to State Department estimates, relief convoys have reached 225,000 desperate Syrians in the past few weeks; the target is to provide aid to 1.7 million by the end of March. The cease-fire process invites violations, because many of the more than 100 rebel groups that have accepted the truce are camped alongside excluded fighters from the Islamic State and Jabhat al-Nusra. State Department officials describe this co-location of groups

as “marbling,” and expect it will take weeks for fighters to vote with their feet which side of the line they’re on. This sorting will work only if there’s some sign of progress toward an eventual political transition away from Assad. Iran is the second puzzle piece that looks different than most would have predicted a few years ago. Obama’s bet that Iran could be pressured into a meaningful nuclear deal by a global sanctions coalition has proved correct. What’s more, his hope that the Iran opening would strengthen pragmatic forces there also appears to have borne fruit after last Friday’s elections. State Department officials say it’s impossible now to calculate precisely what the political balance will be in the new parliament or the “Assembly of Experts” group that will choose Iran’s next leader. But it’s clear that the hard-liners have been weakened, and that President Hassan Rouhani’s position is stronger. That was Obama’s biggest strategic gamble; it appears to be paying off. Saudi Arabia is also changing shape. Who would have predicted a few years ago that the decisive figure in this once-moribund, hyper-conservative monarchy would be a headstrong 30-year-old whose goal appears to be a Saudi version of the modernizing, relatively tolerant United Arab Emirates? But that’s what’s happening under Deputy Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman. The young Saudi has some-

additional maintenance funds to keep other streets from falling into a similar state of disrepair. Several major projects were completed on Kasold Drive, Iowa Street and Wakarusa Drive, but now it seems that the shortage of maintenance funds may be continuing the cycle of allowing streets to deteriorate until there is no option but to rebuild them. The city now has a backlog of $6.6 million worth of deferred projects. Some Lawrence residents may remember that, by law, the infrastructure sales tax passed in 2008 was required to sunset in 10 years unless it is extended by a citywide vote. The end of that 10year window is not so far away. Those who voted for the tax in 2008 hoped that the city could cut its maintenance backlog, not watch it grow. With that in mind, voters may not be eager to reauthorize the tax, but how much worse will Lawrence streets get without that revenue?

times been more bold than wise, as in his war in Yemen, his decision to break diplomatic relations with Iran and his new effort to destabilize a Hezbollah-dominated Lebanon. But his role as a change agent is unmistakable. He “wants to transition Saudi Arabia very quickly,” said Adel Al Toraifi, the Saudi information minister, who’s just 36 himself, in a visit to Washington last week. The piece of the Middle East puzzle that seems most jagged right now is Turkey, only a decade ago the brightest spot in the region. President Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s power plays have shattered a once-promising reconciliation with the Kurds and undermined Turkish democracy. Turkey has managed simultaneously to worsen its relations with Russia, Israel, Iran and the U.S. — quite a feat. As America has stepped back in the Middle East during Obama’s presidency, Russia, Iran, the Islamic State and Saudi Arabia have stepped forward. This has brought many new dangers. But even though America’s military dominance has faded, its diplomatic role remains decisive — as the Syria and Iran talks show. Fitting the altered pieces of the puzzle together brings many risks, but it does provide new openings. And it’s clear that even in its diminished role, the U.S. remains the indispensable stabilizing power, like it or not. — David Ignatius is a columnist for Washington Post Writers Group.

Dangerous times require calm leadership Last weekend, I was at an estate auction in which one of the lots was a boxful of Life magazines from the early 1960s, mainly about the presidency of John Kennedy. Among these was an issue on the Cuban missile crisis. That brought back a series of memories. I was in grade school in New York City at the time of the crisis. As part of our routines, we periodically went through what was known as a “duck and cover” exercise. There were two variations. In one, we would immediately crouch beneath our desks and cover our heads with our hands. In the other, we would go out into the hallway and crouch next to an inner wall, again covering our heads and eyes. I have to admit that, even at that age, I wondered why we bothered. Since my school was only a few miles away from “ground zero” (we were told that Soviet missiles would target the Empire State Building), I was sure that we would be incinerated by the first blast. Mainly, my memories of the time are that of being convinced that the Soviet Union was going to launch a nuclear attack on the U.S.

Mike Hoeflich

“

I understand the popular anger at Washington and politics as usual, but electing a president … who does not possess the temperament and the experience to be president in a dangerous world is, in my opinion, foolhardy in the extreme.”

Newspapers and magazines were filled with stories on how to build a bomb shelter, instructions that were totally useless to my family since we lived in a high-rise apartment building. Every day there were articles in the news about some crisis in Europe or the Middle East.

As a young teen, I was fairly certain I wouldn’t live to see my 21st birthday. But all of these general fears became much more real when it was revealed that the Soviet Union was constructing missile bases in Cuba just 90 miles from the U.S. For those few days of the crisis, everybody in the world feared that the confrontation between the U.S. and the Soviet Union was going to escalate into a nuclear war. Now, with hindsight and the work of historians, we know that those fears were not groundless. The world came perilously close to nuclear devastation in October 1962. One of the reasons that the world as we know it did not end at that time was that President Kennedy, a veteran of World War II, stayed calm during the crisis and, while he certainly took some risks, he managed the crisis in a sober way that avoided Armageddon. Thank God for that. However, aside from historical interest, why am I writing about something that happened over a half century ago? My answer to this question is simple. We live in very dangerous times, per-

haps even more dangerous than during the Cold War. Russia is resurgent; China is expanding its sphere of influence and vastly strengthening its military. A number of countries, who are not our friends, such as North Korea, have nuclear weapons, and, of course, terrorism is a growing threat both domestically and abroad. The Cuban missile crisis is, for me, historical evidence of why we need a president who is calm, rational and experienced in global and military affairs. I understand the popular anger at Washington and politics as usual, but electing a president solely based on anger and hatred, and electing someone who does not possess the temperament and the experience to be president in a dangerous world is, in my opinion, foolhardy in the extreme. I suggest that everyone remember the Cuban missile crisis when deciding whom to support in the coming election. Otherwise, the next crisis might be our last. — Mike Hoeflich, a distinguished professor in the Kansas University School of Law, writes a regular column for the Journal-World.

U.S. fractured, mad, more tolerant 5 lessons point to challenges ahead

Susan Page USA TODAY

Racking up a string of victories in Super Tuesday contests, Republican Donald Trump and Democrat Hillary Clinton solidified their claims as their party’s likely presidential nominee — but the GOP faces fractures and the Democrats an enthusiasm gap in an election that has NEWS upset the early ANALYSIS expectations. Strong showings in the dozen states that held primaries and caucuses Tuesday strengthened the prospect that the November election will end up pitting Trump’s blustery populism against Clinton’s long record of liberal advocacy. As ballots still were being counted in some states, Clinton was sweeping much of the South, winning AlaWASHINGTON

bama, Arkansas, Georgia, Tennessee, Texas and Virginia. Trump won not only in the Northeast, carrying Massachusetts, but also across the South — in Alabama, Georgia, Tennessee and Virginia. Republican Sen. Ted Cruz won the primary in Oklahoma and in his home state of Texas. Democrat Sen. Bernie Sanders won the primary in Oklahoma and in his home state of Vermont. One lesson learned in this surprising campaign is that tax audits and FBI investigations, intemperate exchanges and shifting voter sentiments could create obstacles on the paths that the two front-runners are mapping to the national political conventions in July. Here are five other things we’ve learned in the opening series of contests, capped by the most delegate-rich night of the season Tuesday. 1. THE GOP IS FRACTURING

For a sense of just how fractured the GOP is, consider this: The top Republicans in the House of Representatives and the Senate went

before reporters on Capitol Hill Tuesday to denounce the stance taken by the GOP’s likely presidential nominee. They were spurred by Trump’s initial failure to denounce white supremacist groups embracing his candidacy. “There has been a lot of talk in the last 24 hours about one of our presidential candidates and his seeming ambivalence about David Duke and the KKK, so let me make it perfectly clear,” Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., said. “That is not the view of Republicans who have been elected to the United States Senate, and I condemn his views in the most forceful way.” Trump has never sought or served in public office. He hasn’t even been a reliable Republican voter, and he’s regularly contributed to Democratic and Republican campaigns. Yet it’s not his political history but his unpredictable positions and divisive rhetoric that alarm the GOP establishment.

Paranoid bin Laden longed for a reunion with one wife Letters reveal fears and obsessions Gregg Zoroya USA TODAY

Osama bin Laden was desperate to see his third wife, missed her terribly and was obsessed with whether a tiny tracking device was secretly implanted in her so the world could find the 9/11 mastermind, according to new documents released Tuesday. Personal letters from bin Laden to his family were among

more than 100 documents seized in May 2011 when bin Laden was killed during the U.S. military raid on his compound in Abbottabad, Pakistan. The documents were released by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence. The terrorist leader is believed to have had 20 children by five wives. Three of his wives were with him when he was killed. Two joined him during the last year or so before his death. Among the documents released Tuesday are what appear to be letters to one of those two women, Khairiah Sabar, a former teacher of deaf children in Saudi

Bin Laden warned Khairiah, who was eight years older than her husband, that spies could plant a tracking device in the tooth filling she received from a dentist in Iran. “We ... horribly fear the filling you were given,” he wrote. He also cautioned that during any medical procedure she might be injected with a surveillance device. “They can insert a small chip in it (a syringe) to implant under the skin,” he wrote. He stressed these concerns repeatedly.

“In terms of caution, I ask you to report to me in detail anything you find suspicious from any doctor in Iran, like if the syringe is the usual volume and its head has a slightly larger diameter than normal,” bin Laden wrote. “They can, as I told you before, put a small SIM card to plant it under the skin.” The letters to his wife, which appear to have been written a year or two before his death in 2011, say how much he missed her and wanted to see her. “Please trust me that I am working very hard to live with you,” bin Laden wrote.

QUICK 6 SUPER TRUMP RIVALS WINS FOR CLINTON AVOID KNOCKOUT Front-runner has started turning focus to Trump Rick Hampson USA TODAY

Democratic front-runner Hillary Clinton campaigned on Super Tuesday with the political wind at her back, grabbing six easy victories in Virginia, Arkansas, Georgia, Alabama, Texas and Tennessee, and losing Vermont and Oklahoma to her rival, native son Sen. Bernie Sanders. The races were called by the Associated Press and major networks shortly after the polls closed in those states. The Massachusetts primary remained too close to call, as did caucuses in Colorado and Minnesota. “What a Super Tuesday!” Clinton said shortly before 9 p.m. in Miami. “Democrats BURLINGTON FREE PRESS Sanders voted to break down barriers, so we can all rise together.” Sanders spoke to supporters early in the evening in Essex Junction, Vt., evoking loud cheers with a familiar refrain: “This is not just about electing a president. It’s about making a political revolution!” He said that given Democratic primary rules, which provide for proportional allocation of delegates rather than winner-take-all, “by the end of tonight, we are going to win many hundreds of delegates.” That sparked frenzied chants of “Bernie! Bernie!” Clinton seemed confident that a series of primary victories would cripple Sanders’ nomination hopes, and as votes were being cast Tuesday, she increasingly focused on her likely opponent in No-

vember — Donald Trump. Trump and the other Republican candidates “are now running their campaigns based on insults. It’s turned into a kind of one-upmanship on insulting, and I don’t think that’s appropriate in a presidential campaign,” she said. She faulted the GOP candidates for “a lot of … bigotry and bullying.” That night, speaking to a women’s group in the affluent South Florida enclave of Bal Harbour, she said, “I do think we need more love and kindness.” Her greatest challenge might not have been to beat Sanders as much as to avoid alienating his many enthusiastic, young supporters. To that end, here was Brian Fallon, Clinton’s spokesman: “Sen. Sanders has done a great job of extending the Democratic brand.” Even as the Clinton camp extended the olive branch to Sanders, it braced for blows from Trump, who stressed on ABC’s Good Morning America that he had not yet begun to fight: “I haven’t even focused on Hillary Clinton. … I can tell you the one person that Hillary Clinton doesn’t want to run against is me.” But a new CNN/ORC poll found that Trump was the only major GOP contender Clinton would beat if the election were held now. And Sanders beat them all. Clinton poked at Trump’s slogan — “Make America Great Again” — in her victory speech, saying “America never stopped being great. We have to make America whole.” Contributing: The Burlington (Vt.) Free Press staff and Thomas Gounley, The Baxter (Ark.) Bulletin

GOP candidates make plans for next stage of campaign David Jackson USA TODAY

Donald Trump scored wins in at least six states on Super Tuesday, the opening results in a slate of delegate contests that could set the stage for the end of the Republican presidential race. Trump took Georgia, Alabama, Arkansas, Tennessee, Massachusetts and Virginia, while Vermont remained too close to call. Meanwhile, Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas won his home state and Oklahoma. Cruz, who needed to win Texas to remain competitive, was second in Arkansas. Marco Rubio was a close second to Trump in Virginia, while John Kasich battled the billionaire front-runner in Vermont. Trump appeared at a news conference in Florida after most of the results had been counted and was introduced by New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, who endorsed Trump last week. “Making America great again is going to be so much better than making America whole again,” Trump said, taking a jab at Democrat Hillary Clinton’s victory speech. Trump said he could unify the Republican Party, despite the declarations of some Republican officials that they would not support him if he was the party’s nominee. Christie, who had previously questioned Trump’s fitness for office, remained onstage during the news conference. WASHINGTON

Cruz declared victory in Texas and said he was the only candidate who had beaten Trump. Cruz won the Iowa caucuses, as well as Texas and Oklahoma. He attacked Trump as not sufficiently conservative. Rubio vowed to keep running, saying his poll standing was rising while Trump’s was falling. The Florida senator is taking aim at the March 15 primary in his home state, but Trump and Cruz indicated they would pressure Rubio to drop out if he did not carry a single state on Super Tuesday. “I think he has to get out,” Trump told Fox & Friends. “He hasn’t won anything and Ted Cruz very rightly points out Marco has not won. ... I would think he would have to get out.” Cruz also told reporters that a candidate who has not won a state after Tuesday’s events should consider getting out. “If you want to beat Donald Trump, we’ve got to get to a head-to-head, a one-on-one race,” Cruz said, noting that he has proved he can beat the New York billionaire via his victory in the Iowa caucuses on Feb. 1. Cruz also said that, on Tuesday and in primaries and caucuses to follow, the name of the game is delegate acquisition ahead of the Republican convention in July. Rubio is not apt to take his rivals’ advice, saying he expects to pick up many delegates Tuesday and to sweep to victory in Florida in two weeks, establishing himself as the main alternative to Trump. As returns came in Tuesday, the Rubio campaign sent an email to supporters vowing a “long war” against Trump.

Voters’ rage keeps race unpredictable v CONTINUED FROM 1B

Some view Trump’s prospective nomination as a sort of hostile takeover, although they have failed to devise a way to block him or even coalesce effectively behind a single rival. They fear that as a nominee, he not only would be crushed in a landslide but also would undermine Republican candidates down the ballot — including those in swing states trying to hold a half-dozen Senate seats crucial to keeping GOP control. An anti-Trump super PAC called Our Principles is ramping up its operations. 2. DEMOCRATS FACE AN ENTHUSIASM GAP

In every contest leading up to Super Tuesday, Democratic turnout has been way down while Republican turnout was way up. Trump brags that’s good news for Republicans. “GROWING PARTY,” he declared in a tweet after the South Carolina primaries. In South Carolina, 367,000 people voted in the Democratic primary, a 30% decline from the party’s last contested primary, in 2008. In the Republican primary, 603,000 people voted, a 20% increase from the last contested GOP contest, in 2012. In Nevada’s Republican caucuses, 34,000 people supported Trump. That’s more than the entire GOP turnout four years ago. Election scholars caution that

high turnout during the primaries doesn’t necessarily translate to an advantage in November. In 2000, Republicans scored higher turnout in the primaries that nominated George W. Bush, but Democratic nominee Al Gore carried the popular vote in the general election. Still, polls continue to show that GOP voters are more likely than Democratic ones to be avid about voting this year, although the gap has narrowed from last fall. In a national CNN/ORC poll released Monday, 31% of Republicans and Republican-leaning voters said they were “extremely enthusiastic” about voting, compared with 23% of Democrats and Democratic-leaning voters. 3. AMERICANS ARE MAD

Voters who are angry about an economy that seems to reward only the rich, worried about the future of their kids and dismayed by a dysfunctional political system that doesn’t seem able to get things done have fueled the surprises of the 2016 campaign. The heir to the GOP’s leading dynasty? Out of the race despite the race’s richest war-chest. The nation’s longest-serving governor? Didn’t make it to the starting gate. The governors of Louisiana, Maryland, New Jersey and Wisconsin? Gone. Instead, a real estate mogul and political outsider was building a delegate lead in the Republi-

can race Tuesday, and the once-formidable front-runner on the Democratic side seemed to be doing the same against an unlikely rival — a 74-year-old Democratic socialist from Vermont. 4. WHITE HOUSE DOORS HAVE OPENED WIDER

Trump’s caustic rhetoric on immigration that portrays Mexicans as criminals and Muslims as too dangerous to allow to enter the USA, at least for now, may have obscured a notable development in the 2016 campaign: an expanding tolerance for who can mount a credible campaign for president. In the opening Iowa caucuses, Clinton became the first woman and Cruz the first Latino to win the presidential nominating contest of a major party. In New Hampshire, Sanders became the first Jewish candidate to win a primary. That night, Trump became the first outsider (that is, someone who has never held office) to win a primary since the modern nominating system emerged more than a half-century ago. Even on age: Marco Rubio (44 years old) and Cruz (45) are among the youngest serious contenders ever for the White House. Clinton (68), Trump (69) and Sanders (74) are among the oldest. On their Inauguration Days, only John Kennedy and Teddy

Roosevelt were younger than Rubio or Cruz would be next January. Only Ronald Reagan was older than Clinton would be. Besides Clinton’s potential status as the first woman president, none of those breakthroughs has gotten much attention or raised significant barriers. Even for Clinton, her gender is generating less commentary than it did eight years ago.

shine State will award a trove of convention delegates in its primary in two weeks, particularly on the Republican side, where the winner takes all. It’s a chance for Trump to vanquish Rubio in his home state (or for Rubio to stage a comeback) and for Clinton to widen her lead over Sanders (or for him to stage a surprise).

5. ALL ROADS LEAD TO FLORIDA — AND NOVEMBER

Trump watched the returns from Palm Beach. Clinton was an hour away, in Miami. Florida isn’t a Super Tuesday state, but both candidates had good reason to be there.

TEXAS ABORTION WAR TESTS JUSTICES Without Scalia, a 4-4 vote possible, leading to more battles

GETTY IMAGES

Justice Antonin Scalia died Feb. 13.

“If the court splits, then devastat -ing for Texas, but the issue will remain for another day.” Nancy Northup of the Center for Reproductive Rights

Richard Wolf USA TODAY

The trips Linda Prine makes regularly from New York to Las Cruces, N.M., are quicker and less stressful than the ones some of her patients endure in order to get an abortion. Many drive three to five hours from the Texas Panhandle, where all abortion clinics have closed. A few drive eight to 10 hours from Dallas or Fort Worth, where waits of several weeks are common. The distances and durations are because of a state law that opponents say has forced more than half the state’s abortion clinics to close and now threatens all but 10 of those remaining — threatening even longer drives and waiting lists. “They are almost traumatized by the experience they’ve had to go through,” says Prine, founder of the Reproductive Health Access Project. “Most of my patients are crying.” On Wednesday, a suddenly short-staffed Supreme Court will hear the most significant challenge in a generation to the everrising number of state abortion restrictions. Clinics in Texas, a dwindling breed under the 2013 law, are fighting requirements that doctors have admitting privileges at local hospitals and clinics meet the same operating standards as surgical centers. Texas legislators and the nation’s leading abortion opponents say those rules are necessary to protect women’s health, even if they result in leaving just 10 clinics in a state with 5.4 million women of reproductive age. The nation’s leading abortion rights groups and major medical associations say the rules don’t serve public health but represent a roadblock for women seeking abortions — the very type of burden the high court’s landmark 1992 ruling in Planned Parenthood v. Casey was intended to prohibit. The death on Feb. 13 of Justice Antonin Scalia changed the calculus on both sides somewhat. It makes a sweeping victory for opponents of abortion virtually impossible, given the likely position WASHINGTON

RICK JERVIS, USA TODAY

of the court’s four liberal justices. A 4-4 vote would leave the law in place in Texas, but it would set no national precedent, and court battles would continue from Alabama to Wisconsin. “If the court splits, then devastating for Texas, but the issue will remain for another day,” says Nancy Northup, president of the Center for Reproductive Rights, which is challenging the law on behalf of Whole Woman’s Health and other abortion providers. What Scalia’s death doesn’t change is the hope among abortion rights advocates that Justice Anthony Kennedy will provide a crucial fifth vote against the abortion restrictions as exactly the type of undue burden he ruled out of bounds in Casey. That, however, may be wishful thinking. Kennedy has done that just once before, ruling that women did not need to inform their spouses before getting an abortion.

IN BRIEF MIGRANT CAMP NO MORE

Whole Woman’s Health clinic in McAllen, Texas, which closed in 2014, has since reopened. Clinics in Texas are fighting requirements that doctors have admitting privileges at local hospitals and clinics meet same operating standards as surgical centers.

About 80 briefs have been submitted to the court, with those opposed to the law slightly outnumbering those in favor. In Texas, the debate has focused more on day-to-day hardships endured by women — many of them poor or Hispanic — who face difficulties obtaining abortions because of widespread clinic closures. If the law is allowed to stand, the 10 remaining clinics will be centered in four metropolitan areas — Houston, Dallas-Fort Worth, Austin and San Antonio. One additional clinic near the Mexican border in McAllen will be allowed to stay open, but with new restrictions that could leave only one 75-year-old retired doctor able to perform abortions. The only clinics in El Paso would close. Nan Kirkpatrick, executive director of Texas Equal Access Fund, which provides small grants to help low-income wom-

en afford abortions, says many cannot pay for gas, hotel rooms and child care or take time off from work to travel. “It’s already pretty bad, and it’s just going to get worse,” she says. Those who do make it from rural parts of the state to one of the population centers often run into long waits. The longest — 15 to 20 days — are in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, according to data compiled monthly by the Texas Policy Evaluation Project. Whether the Texas law is completely to blame for the clinic shutdowns is a matter of debate. One brief filed by anti-abortion faculty members from 80 colleges and universities contends the law’s impact has been greatly exaggerated. “Many of the plaintiffs’ claims are demonstrably false; others are unsupported by any evidence in the record,” the brief, submitted by former Texas solicitor general Jonathan Mitchell, says.

The nation’s third-largest city has recorded at least 95 homicides in the first two months of 2016, the deadliest start to a year since the late 1990s, according to police department data. Chicago Police Department officials said Tuesday that the spike in violence is being driven by a rise in gang activity. The city recorded at least 43 homicides in February after recording 52 homicides in January, matching the deadliest start of a year for the city since 1999. That year the city recorded 643 murders. The city’s police also recorded 165 shooting incidents for the month of February. Not counted in the police department’s official homicide toll are several violent deaths that were ruled justified. If all violent deaths were counted, the homicide toll would rise to 102 for the first two months of the year, according to a database maintained by the Chicago Tribune. — Aamer Madhani SODASTREAM LAYS OFF FINAL PALESTINIAN WORKERS

Many of the 74 Palestinians laid off Monday worked at the firm for at least five years, the Times of Israel reported. More than 500 Palestinians lost their jobs when the West Bank factory closed in October and moved to Levahim in southern Israel.

WASHINGTON FBI Director James Comey said Tuesday that Congress must decide whether it wants Apple and other tech companies to have the power to effectively bar law enforcement from obtaining evidence of crime and terrorism from encrypted smartphones and other electronic devices. “The core question is this: Once all of the requirements and safeguards of the laws and the Constitution have been met, are we comfortable with technical design decisions that result in barriers to obtaining evidence of a crime?” Comey asked the House Judiciary Committee. Comey said the government is not trying to expand its surveillance power, but he is concerned about the emergence of “warrant-proof spaces” where critical information cannot be found by law enforcement. “Rather we are asking to ensure that we can continue to obtain electronic information and evidence pursuant to the legal authority that Congress has provided us to keep America safe,” he said. Comey testified at a hearing in which the FBI faced off with Apple for the first time since the federal government went to court to try to force the tech giant to unlock a terrorist’s encrypted iPhone. Comey and Apple’s senior vice president and general counsel, Bruce Sewell, were witnesses at a Judiciary Committee hearing titled “The Encryption Tightrope: Balancing Americans’ Security and Privacy.” The difficulty of finding that balance has been underscored by the legal battle between the FBI and Apple over whether the government can force the company to create software to unlock the iPhone of a dead terrorist who killed 14 people in San Bernardino, Calif., in December. Comey said the FBI’s request would only affect the iPhone of terrorist Syed Farook, who was killed along with his wife in a

shootout with police. But Apple warned Tuesday that writing new code to unlock Farook’s phone will create a backdoor into the encrypted iPhones of millions of consumers, making the devices vulnerable to hackers, cyber criminals and government surveillance. “Do we want to put a limit on the technology that protects our data, and therefore our privacy and our safety, in the face of increasingly sophisticated cyber attacks?” Sewell testified. A federal magistrate ordered Apple last month to cooperate with the FBI to unlook Farook’s phone. Federal agents believe the phone could contain answers about whether Farook and his wife worked with others to plot their attack. Apple filed a motion last Thursday to dismiss the government’s request, charging that it is in conflict with Americans’ constitutional rights to free

speech and to avoid self-incrimination. Google, Facebook, Twitter and Microsoft are among the tech companies supporting Apple. As the dispute plays out in court, members of Congress are trying to decide what they should do legislatively to try to resolve the encryption debate. “Americans have a right to strong privacy protections and Congress should fully examine the issue to be sure those are in place while finding ways to help law enforcement fight crime and keep us safe,” Judiciary Committee Chairman Bob Goodlatte, R-Va., and Rep. John Conyers of Michigan, the panel’s senior Democrat, said in a joint statement. Lawmakers are proposing two solutions to the dilemma. House Homeland Security Committee Chairman Michael McCaul, R-Texas, and Sen. Mark Warner, D-Va., introduced a bill Monday to create a national commission on digital security. Taking a different approach, Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., and Senate Intelligence Committee Chairman Richard Burr, R-N.C., plan to introduce legislation to require companies to provide encrypted data to the government if law enforcement officials have a court order.

Oil prices, strong economic news help Dow rise 350 points

Wall Street, looking to flee the stock market’s winter chill, soared on the first trading of March as investors took a “spring break” from the fear that has gripped financial markets for a good part of 2016. Call it a spring thaw, or Wall Street-style March Madness, or as Joseph Quinlan of U.S. Trust puts it, a “spring break” from fear. But the price flight trajectory of the Dow Jones industrial average on Tuesday was a ray of sunshine for investors as the blue-chip

stock gauge soared nearly 350 points, or 2.1% to 16,865.08, putting it at its highest level since the third trading session of the year on Jan. 6. The Dow trimmed its year-to-date loss to 3.2%. The market rally was broad, with the large-company Standard & Poor’s 500 stock index rising 2.4% and the tech-stock packed Nasdaq composite soaring nearly 3%. It was the S&P’s best start ever to March, Bespoke Investment Group says. The Dow rallied on strong U.S. economic news. A move toward $35 a barrel for battered U.S.-produced crude and additional stimulus measures by Beijing gave the market a boost. Also helping boost sentiment were comments signaling higher downside risks to inflation and growth from New York Federal Reserve President Bill Dudley late Monday, a mes-

sage traders interpreted as a sign the U.S. central bank is more dovish and likely to scale back its interest rate hike plans this year. “Market fears have abated for now,” Quinlan told USA TODAY. “The markets are taking a break from the fear and uncertainty of winter due to expectations of a dovish Fed, more stimulus from China, oil price stability and less fears about a U.S. recession.” The stock surge came right on cue, as March — and April for that matter — historically have been seasonally bullish for stocks. Since 1950, the S&P 500 has posted average gains of 1.2% in March, which ranks fourth out of the 12 months, according to Strategas Research Partners. And in a potential sign of further gains to come, the average performance for the S&P 500 in March and April has been 2.66%

in the past 50 years, No. 1 of all two-month periods according to Bespoke Investment Group. “It’s a sign of a March thaw,” says Anthony Valeri, investment strategist at LPL Financial. The big driver was a betterthan-expected reading on February manufacturing released Tuesday and auto sales last month coming in at a still-strong seasonally adjusted pace of 17.4 million vehicles. The strong incoming data “indicates that recession fears are ebbing” and was a “strong vote of confidence from consumers,” Valeri says. But if the February jobs report comes in a lot stronger than the 200,000 job estimate and if the Fed at its mid-March meeting hints of more rate hikes this year than the market expects, it could “put a lid on the equity market,” Valeri says.

MANUFACTURING’S PAIN STARTING TO EASE Manufacturing activity shrank in February for the fifth consecutive month, but the contraction was less severe than anticipated. An index of factory activity rose to 49.5 from 48.2 in January, the Institute for Supply Management said Tuesday. A reading below50 indicates contraction. Economists expected a more modest rise to 48.5. The better-than-expected news contributed to healthy U.S. stock gains. The Dow Jones industrial average closed up 348 points, or 2.1%, to 16,865. NYSE WEIGHS OFFER FOR LONDON STOCK EXCHANGE The owner of the New York Stock Exchange confirmed it is considering making an offer for the London Stock Exchange. Intercontinental Exchange, based in Atlanta, said a firm intention will be made no later than March 29. It comes after the LSE last week confirmed it was in discussions to merge with Germany’s Deutsche Boerse in a deal worth at least $28 billion. Exchanges are largely looking to mergers and expansion as a way to stay relevant in a rapidly globalizing securities marketplace. JOURNAL MEDIA GROUP SHAREHOLDERS OK MERGER Shareholders of Milwaukeebased Journal Media Group on Tuesday approved the company’s $280 million sale to Gannett, which owns USA TODAY. The transaction is expected to close this month. Journal Media Group owns the 178-year-old “Milwaukee Journal Sentinel,” “The Commercial Appeal” of Memphis, 13 other daily newspapers and 18 weeklies.

New cars are what it’s all about at the Geneva Motor Show. Above, Aston Martin CEO Andy Palmer shows off the new DB11. Top right, the new Mercedes C-Class Cabriolet ushers in an all-new convertible, and bottom left, the new Toyota C-HR.

ASTON MARTIN, OTHER MODELS READY TO SHAKE, STIR PUBLIC Andria Yu and Chris Woodyard USA TODAY

When it comes to elegance, nothing beats the Geneva Motor Show, and this year is no exception. Aston Martin, Ferrari, Bugatti and Rolls-Royce are among the luxury brands making their appearance. And there is even room for a few mainstream introductions as well. Many of the models will show up at U.S. auto shows, or go direct to dealers’ showroom floors, in coming months. Here are some of this year’s most important introductions. uAston Martin DB11: Aston Martin is looking to rock the luxury auto market as it launched the new DB11 grand tourer. The introduction marked Aston’s first remake of the DB model, known as a favorite of superspy James Bond, in 13 years. The 5.2 liter, twin-turbocharged V-12 engine puts out 600 horsepower. The DB11’s bonded aluminum platform, which Aston Martin says makes the car lighter and stronger, helps the GT reach 0 to 60 mph in less than four seconds with a top speed of more than 200 miles per hour, the British automaker says. The DB11 draws some design concepts from the prototype DB10 built especially for the latest Bond movie, Spectre. Only the rims on the DB11 are nearly identical to its movie predecessor. And if you look closely, the name of the Potenza tire designed for the car is called the S007. Compared to the DB9, however the 11 is “a new design. There’s no carryover. It’s a new interior, new engine, new gearbox, new plat-

GM sales fall as Ford and Fiat Chrysler soar Nathan Bomey and Chris Woodyard USA TODAY

The auto industry shivered its way to mixed results in February, although some automakers, such as Ford Motor and Fiat Chrysler, posted solid gains. General Motors’ U.S. sales fell 1.5% in February, but Ford was up 20.4% and Fiat Chrysler saw a 12% increase. Japan’s big three — Toyota, Honda and Nissan — were up as well. Volkswagen reported a 13.2% drop in sales as it continues to deal with fallout from admission about rigging diesel cars to beat emissions tests. At present, it is not selling any one of its diesel models. The month started slow on the sales front but picked up as it went on, says Judy Wheeler, sales vice president for Nissan in the U.S. Some potential buyers apparently dallied in their carbuying decisions as they weighed a slew of economic and political news but “now they are re-engaged in making decisions,” she says. General Motors says while its overall sales were down slightly, it saw a healthy 7% gain in sales to individual customers, the one-at-a-time sales that are the most profitable. Ford not only posted a big sales overall gain, but some of its biggest increases were in

It’s expected to come to the U.S. The C-HR was shown at the Los Angeles Auto Show last year as a Scion. Now that the Scion brand is going away, Toyota has rebadged it for its own division. In Geneva, the C-HR picks up many of the same coupe-like styling touches that made it a stand out as a concept. There’s a bold front end, unique LED lights and a wide stance that denotes ruggedness. It should be both roomy and stylish. For Europe, Toyota is showing it as a hybrid — with an electricpowered battery backed by a 1.8liter gas engine. The C-HR will be equipped, at least in Europe, with a full suite of safety tech. They will include a system to alert the driver if the car wanders out of its lane, to read road signs, detect pedestrians and keep a safe distance from the car ahead when cruise control is engaged. uMercedes-Benz C-Class Cabriolet: Mercedes is ready for fun in the sun with a new convertible version of its C-Class. Unlike many convertibles, Mercedes says the C-Class Cabriolet will have neck-level heating vents and an optional “automatic draft stop system” aimed at keeping more warm air in the cabin when the top is down. Coming late this summer, the C-Class convertible will have a new 9-speed automatic transmission and a new infotainment system. Its profile will be basically the same as the C-Class coupe.

AMERICA’S MARKETS What to watch Adam Shell @adamshell USA TODAY

This has been a record-breaking year, and 2016 is still young. Stocks got off to their worst start ever. Then Tuesday, the Standard & Poor’s 500 stock index posted its best first-day March gain ever. Wall Street has suffered through its fair share of madness this year, but the current March madness could be a sign of better days ahead for a market that had been performing like an unranked one-and-done team and not like the blue-chip phenom form it flashed Tuesday. The S&P 500 jumped 2.39% to 1978.35 Tuesday, marking its best start to March ever, according to Bespoke Investment Group. The large-company stock index

topped its prior first-day March record gain of 2.26% in 2002. From a seasonality standpoint, the stock market rally came right on schedule as March historically has been a strong month for stocks. The combined gains in March and April rank No. 1 going back 50 years, with the average two-month advance clocking in at 2.66%, Bespoke says. “In terms of seasonal moves, March does typically kick off what is the strongest two-month stretch of the calendar, so seasonals could have played some roll in the rally,” Bespoke co-founder Paul Hickey told USA TODAY. “What’s more important, though, is the improved economic data in the ISM manufacturing report and construction spending. With back-to-back increases in the manufacturing index, worries over the economy have diminished — at least temporarily.”

Stock, up 8% since hitting low, rallies with rest of Wall St. Matt Krantz @mattkrantz USA TODAY

Suffering Apple investors got a bit of a break Tuesday as the stock battles to get back above $100 a share for the first time in weeks and stay there. Shares of Apple closed above $100 a share Tuesday — a key level it hasn’t closed above since

Meanwhile, many of the company’s latest offerings have failed to reach enough popularity to make up for falling growth and maturity of smartphones. Shares of Apple are down 5.1% this year and have dropped a crushing 25% from its highest point of more than $134 a share — putting it squarely in the grip of a bear market, still. The company also is embarking on a high-stakes battle with the Federal Government over a request to assist with the investigation of a terrorist’s smartphone. Investors are trying to gauge

Past investors in Trump brand didn’t do so hot

Q: Can I invest in Donald Trump? Matt Krantz

mkrantz@usatoday.com USA TODAY

A: Donald Trump has turned his name into gold in the minds of many members of the public. But public investors haven’t had as much luck. Most of Trump’s financial activities occur within Trump Organization LLC. The company does not offer stock to the public, so performance cannot be readily measured. It mainly owns stakes in a variety of Trump-branded real-estate operations. Investors could invest in a Trump-controlled company in the 1990s: Trump Hotels & Casino Resorts. Trump had been chairman of the board in the late 1990s, owned 41% of the company in 1999 and drew a $1 million-ayear salary. But investors didn’t do so well. Investors who bought the stock when the company went public in 1995 lost 87% of their money by 1999. The company also settled charges with the Securities and Exchange Commission for “making misleading statements” in its third-quarter 1999 earnings release. The company isn’t public anymore, was restructured again in February 2016, and Trump hasn’t owned it for years. But in August 2004 he told USA TODAY who benefited. “People that don’t understand finance might not understand,” Trump said before a bankruptcy protection filing. But “for intelligent people, (the restructuring) enhances the (Trump) brand.”

Apple shares tiptoe way back to key $100 level Jan. 22. The stock closed up $3.84, or 4%, to $100.53 a share Tuesday. The market’s broad rally has included Apple and has pushed the stock up nearly 8% since it hit a low this year of $93.42 on Jan. 27. That slightly outpaces the 5.1% bounce-back by the broad Standard & Poor’s 500 index during the same time. But it’s far too early to pronounce Apple’s pain is over. Apple stock — one of the darlings of Wall Street for years — has lost its mojo, and the growth of its smartphones has tapered off.

whether the company’s dimming growth has been adequately reflected in the stock price. Apple’s adjusted earnings per share is expected to drop 1.3% in fiscal 2016, quite a letdown if you consider adjusted profit rose 43% in fiscal 2015. Analysts have aggressively cut their profit targets on the company — and have been wise to do so. But still, the average analyst thinks Apple should be worth $134 a share in 18 months, which if correct, would be 34% potential upside. Looks like traders are trying to get ahead of that now.

n last year’s acclaimed film Room, Joan Allen played a woman whose daughter — portrayed by Oscar winner Brie Larson — was abducted, held captive and abused for years. In the new ABC drama The Family (Thursday, 9 p.m. ET/PT, then Sundays at 9), Allen is a small-town politician and mother of three whose younger son suffers a similar ordeal for a decade, then reappears at 19 after having been presumed dead. “The irony of getting those parts, one after the other, was surprising,” Allen says, noting that she completed Room “right before Christmas in 2014, then got the pilot for The Family around January (2015), and shot it last March.” Chatting at a favorite diner near her Upper West Side home, the veteran actress, 59, expresses compassion for her Family character, Claire Warren, who hardly comes across as warm and fuzzy. “I saw her as very driven,” Allen says of the former stay-at-home mom who’s mayor of fictional Red Pines, Maine. “I think before getting into politics she was president of the PTA. She had a natural ability to organize and get things done, and she waded into the city council and mayorship. But I think some of that was a response to the grief and trauma she went through. Some people in situations like that become alcoholics; some become activists.” Allen was impressed by how Family executive producer Jenna Bans (Scandal, Grey’s Anatomy) flipped gender stereotypes in developing Claire and her husband, John, played by Rupert Graves. “Rupert’s character has done more of what you’d expect a woman to do, in going to group sessions, talking and writing books about loss and grief.” In researching the role, Allen watched footage of Hillary Clinton and kept in mind another female politician whose background and views are quite different: Sarah Palin. “Hillary’s a groomed politician; she went to law school, was always interested in policy and highly educated. Not that Claire isn’t, but her political abilities are more instinctual.” Claire shares something else in common with Palin: “When Jenna approached me, she said, ‘I think Claire should be a Republican.’ I encouraged that direction, because I thought it would be more fun to play — even if some of my friends may not talk to me now.” Playing a woman who juggles motherhood with a busy career was certainly no stretch for Allen, who has a 22-year-old daughter. A Tony Award-winning stage actress who launched her career

with Chicago’s celebrated Steppenwolf Theatre Company, she has appeared only once on Broadway, and once at Steppenwolf, since becoming a parent. “Some of that was connected with not wanting to miss my daughter’s bedtime,” Allen says. But “I’m not as interested now in doing the same thing over and over again, particularly if it’s really emotionally demanding.” Television, in contrast — which Allen has embraced in recent years with recurring roles on AMC’s The Killing and HBO’s Luck — is attractive for its episodic nature. “With every episode, I learn more about the character,” Allen says. “I think you’ll see, as the episodes unfold, Claire’s mama-bear qualities become even more clear. You’ll see.”

Boycott or awards fatigue may be behind the decline Did a diversity boycott chase away viewers? Were low-wattage films and nominees a factor? Or has awards-show fatigue set in? Whatever the cause, Sunday’s 88th Academy Awards drew 34.4 million viewers on ABC, Nielsen says, down 8% from last year to its lowest turnout since 2008. The audience fell from last year by 3 million, although the Oscars were up among men, and especially young men, perhaps because of host Chris Rock’s appeal. The Rev. Al Sharpton, who was

among those leading calls for a viewer boycott to protest the Oscars’ all-white field of acting nominees, seized on the ratings decline as proof of his campaign was successful. In a statement, Sharpton called the decline “heartening” and said that although he wouldn’t take “full credit,” the results should “send a message to the academy and to movie-studio heads.” But awards shows have seen a ratings decline following a period of upticks credited to social media. CBS’ Grammy Awards, which claimed 25 million viewers on Feb. 15, hit its own seven-year low. “I’m done with seeing these guys pat themselves on the back week after week,” says Sam Armando, analyst at Chicago’s Starcom MediaVest Group. “Maybe there’s some exhaustion over awards shows.” Another factor: a crop of best-

In contrast, Titanic set a record 55 million-plus audience for the 1998 Oscars, suggesting this year’s ceremony would have nabbed a bigger audience if Star Wars: The Force Awakens had been nominated. Rock won raves for his performance, which tackled racial diversity head on. He appeared to bring in more male viewers — though fewer than the 42 million as a first-time host in 2005 — and the adult audience was still 55% female.

KANSAS BASKETBALL

Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

Offense, defense? Kansas has both For most ranked college basketball teams the question elicits an easy response: Does it do a better job of scoring or keeping teams from scoring? It’s not such an easy answer for Kansas University, riding a 10-game winning streak with a 26-4 overall record and a 14-3 Big 12 mark. And that’s a good thing. Six weeks ago, Kansas had a much tougher time preventing scoring than scoring. Then Landen Lucas, averaging 10 rebounds and 2.1 blocks in the past seven games, emerged as a confident defensive force. The entire team became more alert in lending help to beaten teammates. Now KU consistently plays stingy defense. A more subtle improvement offensively, caused in part by better ball movement and more attackminded driving resulting in more uncontested shots inside and from the perimeter, makes the better-offensive-or -defensive study inconclusive. Other than Lucas, every player Kansas sends to the floor to start games shoots a high three-point percentage, is armed with exceptional driving and passing skills and has an abundance of experience playing in big games. That explains why scoring droughts don’t enter the equation for the Jayhawks. Those belong to opponents, such as Texas, which went the first six-and-a-half minutes of Monday night’s game without scoring a point and shooting 0 for 14 from the field. The box score included a rare statistical oddity from Kansas. With the exception of shots taken when defenders are required to stand still and the shooter can take his sweet time, Kansas couldn’t miss Monday night during its best allaround performance of the season, an 86-56 blasting of an NCAA tournamentbound team. Typically, a team makes more than two-thirds of its free throws, about half of its two-point shots and slightly more than a third of its three-pointers. On this night, Kansas shot .688 from three, .618 from inside the three-point semi-circle and .458 from the freethrow line. Standing still didn’t suit the Jayhawks on this night of sheer dominance. They prefer to move and move really fast, as Perry Ellis did when he blew by big, athletic center Prince Ibeh and smaller players on his way to 20 points. In attack mode from the center jump, Ellis made 9 of 11 shots and his only three-point attempt. His quick decisions enabled him to execute terrific passes, drives and jumpers. Kansas played fast and smart basketball, nobody faster or smarter than point guard Frank Mason, who with the help of alert defenders who consistently

Manning looks forward to Senior Day By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Second-year Wake Forest basketball coach Danny Manning knew, no matter what, he’d be in Lawrence on March 5, 2016 for the Senior Day/Allen Fieldhouse swansong of his son, Evan. “My dad actually had one schedule request for Wake Forest (when taking job). That was for him to be able to come back here for this game,” Evan Manning, KU’s 6-foot-3 senior guard from Free State High and New Hampton (N.H.) Prep School, said proudly. He was referring to Saturday’s 3 p.m., Senior Day contest versus Iowa State. “He’s gotten to make it to a couple other games this year. Coach (Bill) Self put me in for a couple of ’em because he knew he was here. That

was cool for him (Self) to do. I’m really excited to have my family in town for the game. I’m looking forward to it,” Evan added of Danny, mom Julie plus sister Taylor, who lives in Portland, Ore. Evan, who averaged 7.7 points, 3.3 rebounds, 2.8 steals and 2.4 assists per game his senior year at FSHS, then went on to net just under 10 points and six assists per contests in 2011-12 at New Hampton, Prep, turned down a chance to play for his dad, who was at Tulsa at the time, and declined overtures from several small colleges in April of 2012 to fulfill a dream to play for KU. Evan lived in Lawrence from 2004 to ’12, the years his dad was on staff at KU. “That would have been cool,” Manning said of perhaps earning lots of playing time at a small college, “but

this has always been my dream. I don’t regret this at all and don’t think I ever will. This place has been too good to me to ever think about ‘what ifs.’ I love it here. I wouldn’t trade what I have, wouldn’t trade my teammates for the world and everything I learned.” Manning also has three Big 12 title rings in his possession with a fourth soon to be fitted in recognition of KU’s 12th league title in a row. Winning at a tradition-rich school like KU has been utterly rewarding, Evan indicated. “When we were here as freshmen, me, Perry (Ellis), Lando (Landen Lucas), Ty (Tyler Self) and Mari (Jamari Traylor) ... we were all around Travis and they did that (2012) Late Night skit where he (Releford) had all his rings out. That was some-

thing. We looked at him and were like, ‘Hey when we leave here, we want to be like that. We want to have those opportunities to put ourselves in position to win the championship each year.’ We’ve been lucky enough to do that. That’s been our goal.” Self, who has directed KU to the 12 titles, applauds the contribution of Manning, who has scored 26 points and dished five assists in games and worked diligently on the scout team at practice thus far during his walk-on career. “He gets it. He is smart. He is a great scout team guy,” Bill Self said. “He had the opportunity to go to other places but wanted to be here and loves KU. “Evan will be successful in whatever he chooses to do.

LHS girls creating winning culture By Bobby Nightengale bnightengale@ljworld.com

After a nine-point victory in the City Showdown on Friday, Lawrence High’s girls basketball players were thrilled they helped the program take a big step forward. The win meant more than bragging rights. It secured home-court advantage throughout sub-state. On a four-game winning streak, the second-seeded Lions (11-9) will play No. 7-seed Shawnee Mission East (4-16) at 7 tonight at LHS, hosting their first substate game since 2008 — the same year the Lions won a state championship.

Royals’ Perez signs extension

FREE STATE HIGH TODAY WEST

Surprise, Ariz. (ap) — Salvador Perez signed a club-friendly deal with the Royals four years ago in part so his mother, Yilda, would no longer have to work in their increasingly violent hometown in Venezuela. Now, Perez hopes he can move her to the U.S. permanently. The Royals signed the AllStar catcher to a contract through 2021 on Tuesday that guarantees him an additional $52.5 million over five seasons. The deal was announced two days after Yilda had her SUV stolen at gunpoint on the way to the market — she was unharmed and the vehicle was later recovered by the police. “It feels like a family here,” Perez said. “Hopefully I can play the rest of my career here,

Chiefs place franchise tag on Berry Kansas City, Mo. (ap) — Eric Berry overcame cancer to return to the Kansas City Chiefs last season. Now, the Chiefs are hopeful he’ll be with them much longer. The team placed the franchise tag on the All-Pro safety on Tuesday, which means the 27-year-old Berry will make $10,806,000 on a one-year contract next season. But both sides have expressed a willingness to work out a long-term deal, and those negotiations are likely to continue for the next couple months. “Our goal is to keep Eric in Kansas City for the foreseeable future,” Chiefs general manager John Dorsey said in a statement. “He’s a special player that means a lot to our organization, the city, and has been a critical piece in building our foundation. With today being the deadline to use the franchise tag, we felt it was in the best interest of the club to place the tag on Eric.” Dorsey said during last week’s scouting combine in Indianapolis that he’s had “really good discussions” with Berry’s representatives, and “we will continue to build on those discussions.” The sides have until July 15 to work out a long-term deal, otherwise Berry will play for the franchise number. He does not have to sign the tender immediately, though — essentially giving Berry the freedom to skip offseason workouts, training camp and even the preseason with no penalty. Then again, he’s never been the kind of guy to skip out on a challenge. Berry was diagnosed with lymphoma midway through the 2014 season and immediately began treatments that robbed him of his hair and sapped him of his strength. But after grueling rounds of chemotherapy, Berry was deemed cancer-free last summer, giving him enough time to report to training camp. The team’s emotional onfield leader, Berry proceeded to have the finest season of his six-year career. The 2010 firstround pick made 55 solo tackles and two interceptions while playing in every game. “I think he wants to be here and we probably want him to be here and all that. But that’s all the agents,” Chiefs coach Andy Reid said recently. “Our people need to get with him and they deal with all that and work through all that stuff. ... But do I like Eric Berry? I can tell you I love Eric Berry.” While the franchise tag was hardly a surprise, it was not a foregone conclusion. Kansas City has several valuable contributors heading toward free agency, including cornerback Sean Smith and defensive lineman Jaye Howard, either of which would have been franchise tag candidates.

KANSAS FOOTBALL

Beaty hires prep coach Tony Hull from New Orleans to fill RB vacancy By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

When Warren Easton High senior quarterback Tyriek Starks first heard the news, he had just risen from a nap brought on by the exhaustion from the ACT exam he took Tuesday evening. As the future Kansas University quarterback opened his eyes and allowed them to adjust to the light from his phone that filled the room, he realized something big had gone down. “I had a few missed calls and text messages and people were telling me what happened,” Starks told the JournalWorld Tuesday night. “I didn’t believe ‘em at first so I had to go research it myself.” Sure enough, what Starks had been told actually was true. Warren Easton High head coach Tony Hull was joining him in Lawrence, hired Tuesday as the Jayhawks’ new running backs coach. “I was overjoyed,” said Starks, who played quarterback for Hull in 2015 before signing with KU in

early February. “I ran upstairs and told my mom and she just started jumping up and down. Everybody in New Orleans is real happy for him.” Five days before the start of spring football practice, second-year KU coach David Beaty once again has a full coaching staff. Hull, 34, replaces Reggie Mitchell, who left KU in February to take a similar position at Arkansas. He becomes the fifth full-time assistant hired by Beaty this offseason, joining Jason Phillips (wide receivers), Todd Bradford (linebackers), Joe DeForest (special teams) and Michael Slater (defensive line). A New Orleans native and son of a retired bus driver, Hull emerged as the leader for the job from a list of several candidates and three or four finalists. His strong ties to Louisiana football and passion for coaching young people made him the right fit for the rebuilding program. His addition figures to open up doors for others like Starks to come to the

Midwest in the near future. “He’s gonna bring in talent from Louisiana because he’s so familiar with the area,” Starks said. “Not just from Warren Easton, either. It’s the whole state. There’s so many talented players throughout all of Louisiana.” Added Hull in a Tuesday night with The New Orleans Advocate: “Over the years, I saw that Louisiana kids didn’t really get a shot at that level, and I wanted to be able to provide that opportunity.” Hired by Easton in 2007 after giving up a dream job — and salary — at NASA, Hull returned to coaching because he believed it was his calling. A year earlier, the school that hired the former aerospace engineer was still in the midst of a five-year span without football, a lingering reminder of the devastation done by Hurricane Katrina. During the next nine years, Hull turned Easton into a formidable program, finishing with a 54-49 record and competing at highest level of

the talent-rich state. In 2014, Easton lost to powerhouse Neville, 28-27, in the state championship game. In 2015, Hull and Starks again reached the state semis. Those accomplishments may not be on par with coaching — and recruiting — at the major Div. I level, but Starks said KU fans should rest easy about Beaty’s hiring of the former Louisiana-Lafayette offensive lineman. “They have nothing to worry about,” he said. “He’s been in the position of rebuilding a program before. He knows what it takes. And he’s a great leader.” Hull will arrive in Lawrence on Thursday and he and the rest of the Jayhawks will kick off the first of 15 spring practices on Sunday. Starks said he was still trying to wrap his mind around the fact that his high school coach was headed to Lawrence before him. “We already started going over the offense and stuff before he even went up there (to interview),” Starks said. “I have so many fa-

Kansas-Nebraska series renewed By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Kansas University and Nebraska will meet in men’s basketball next Dec. 10 in Allen Fieldhouse, KU officials confirmed Tuesday. The Jayhawks will return the trip to NU on Dec. 16, 2017. KU leads the all-time series, 170-71. Next year’s game will mark the return of former KU guard Andrew White III to Lawrence. The 6-foot-7 junior from Richmond, Va., who transferred to NU after two seasons at KU, told the Lincoln Journal-Star he’ll need to “take a chill pill before that one.” White, who sat out last season in accordance with NCAA transfer rules, is averaging a teamleading 17.1 points and 6.1

rebounds for (14-15) NU. KU schedule maker Larry Keating told the JournalWorld next season’s game at UNLV will be on Dec. 22 at Thomas and Mack Center.

Manning

er Mickelson will start versus the Cyclones. “Playing with my guys, I’m going to be really excited, happy to be out there,” Manning said. “I’ll play hard for the time that I can get. Hopefully I’ll contribute a little bit.” Then after the game, he’ll give a short speech to the fans. “I think I have the highest probability of crying out of everyone,” Manning said with a smile. “The last few games we’re running out of the tunnel, the whole time I’m thinking, ‘Man I’m going to miss this.’ Seeing all these people here, the love of KU basketball ... to be part of it is special. I’m going to miss it.” Manning is through

playing after this year. He won’t be heading to Europe to play for pay. “This is the end of that,” he said. “I’m going to hang ’em up here, so to speak.” Chances are he’ll work in the sports field, maybe the world of basketball. “I like the competitive nature of sports, being able to be part of something where you can help guys get a victory in some manner. I think that’s a great feeling,” Manning said. “I’ve got some time to maybe get a GA (grad assistant) job in the next year or two. I think right now I might want to step away from it a little bit. Basketball is definitely a passion. I know I’ll get back to it. I just might need a little break from it after this.”

He got his degree in athletic administration so there’s several different avenues. He’ll have opportunities and certainly make the most of them.” Manning this semester (as well as Perry Ellis and Tyler Self) has been working an internship around KU athletics. He started with the marketing department, moved on to facilities and will finish with the Williams Fund. Once he hits 600 hours, he’ll be eligible to receive his diploma and walk the hill in May. “We get there at 8 a.m.

and work until we have to start doing stuff for practice,” said Manning, who after graduation, will begin a summer internship for Pro Camps based in Cincinnati. “For marketing I help fold the T-shirts they throw out during the games, set up the Fun Zone for women’s games. A lot of brainstorming for football and helping get ideas going, that type of thing. “It’s a lot different than class. It’s a lot more fun. They give us stuff to work on, kind of more freedom than a class. It’s cool.” What will be really cool, he admits, is starting for KU in his final home game.

Seabury boys clock Northern Heights By Bobby Nightengale bnightengale@ljworld.com

With the start of the postseason, Bishop Seabury’s boys basketball players were all business on Tuesday against Northern Heights. The Seahawks are at their best when they are forcing turnovers and sprinting into their transition offense. That’s the formula they followed in a 66-39 rout at Dillon Gymnasium, earning a running clock throughout the fourth quarter in their final home game. In the second quarter, the Seahawks pulled away with a 19-2 run in a five-minute stretch. Defensively, they baited the Wildcats into making bad passes. Junior Mikey Wycoff, in his third game back from an ankle injury, was a magnet with a game-high five steals and junior Max Easter added three steals. On offense, sophomore Bansi King found his rhythm with five straight points to start the spurt before Wycoff added five points, senior forward Thomas Uhler scored on a putback and King drilled another three on his way to 11 points. “We’re not a very good defensive team,” said Wycoff, who had 16 points and six rebounds. “Offensive, yes. But we try to get (ourselves) going on defense.” Once one player finds his shooting stroke, the rest of the team follows. After King scored eight points in the second quarter with two triples, Wycoff followed with a pair of threes, including a swish from the left wing before the halftime buzzer, giving the Seahawks a 37-10 advantage. In the third quarter, sophomore Zach McDermott heated up by scoring 14 of his game-high 22 points. He knocked down four triples in the period, freeing himself around a few screens. “We don’t have green lights, we have neonflashing green lights,” Seabury coach Ashley Battles said. “I think a lot of it, too, is our offense puts us in position to get some good shots. We have great ball handlers

for those moments and how we’re going to handle it. I think that gives the girls something to dream about or think about, and they know the coaching staff is planning for that to happen. We’re planning for that to happen this year.” Rome wasn’t built in one day, and a winning culture can’t be created overnight. Before tournament week, on Jan. 25, Dickson invited former coach Kristin Mallory to speak to the team, who led the Lions to the ’08 title. Mallory coached a few of the current Lions at Southwest Middle School. In Mallory’s speech, she spoke to the Lions about working hard, staying mentally tough and playing together. “A couple of things she said in her speech, coach Dickson kind of took it and we talk about it before every game,” senior forward Emma Bentzinger said. “It just brings us together and gets our head all in the same place before the game so we’re all focused and ready to go.” Lemus added: “She knows what it takes to get there and if we listen,

Everything just works out really well.” Playing without sophomore Mr. Glue Guy Thomas diZerega, who was out of town, the Seahawks turned to junior Austin Gaumer to fill that role. Gaumer finished with three points, four rebounds and four assists, finding his teammates with strong passes. Motivated by a onepoint loss in the sub-state semifinals last season, the second-seeded Seahawks (16-3) were happy with their win, but far from satisfied. In the third quarter, the Wildcats (6-15) went on a 14-6 run during a threeminute stretch. “The third quarter was awful,” Battles said. “We played awful basketball. I told them, ‘If you do that, if you have two minute slip-ups from here on out, then it can cost you the game.’” The Seahawks will play No. 3 seed Lyndon (17-4) in the sub-state semifinals at 7:30 p.m. Friday at Lyndon.

maybe we can get there, too. It was great advice.” All of the ties to the ’08 season are no coincidence. Despite losing seasons filling the past few years, Dickson wants the Lions to know the school’s history with 10 state tournament appearances and three titles. “Our girls need to know that,” Dickson said. “They are a part of that history and have a responsibility to get the program back to that level. That was one of the things that I wanted (Mallory) to relay to them, too, for them to understand it’s not been that long and we have connections to greatness.” The Lions, who have won seven of their past 10 games, have only scratched the surface of where they want the program to be, but they are proud of the direction they are headed. “The names will change, and the kids will come and go, but we’re going to be a state championship-caliber team come hell or high water,” Dickson said. “We’re not spending time downgrading our talent. It’s up to other people, maybe, to assess whether those are reasonable goals, but it doesn’t matter who is in our gym — that’s our goal and what we’re going to push for.”

Oklahoma survives scare from Baylor The Associated Press

Top 25 Men No. 6 Oklahoma 73, No. 19 Baylor 71 Norman, Okla. — Buddy Hield scored 23 points in his final home game, and Oklahoma squandered a 26-point lead before regrouping to defeat Baylor on Tuesday night. Hield scored 13 points in the game’s first eight minutes, but the Sooners fell apart in the second half. Seniors Hield, Ryan Spangler and Isaiah Cousins have started 97 consecutive games together, and all three played key roles for the Sooners. Spangler had 15 points and 13 rebounds, and Cousins scored 10 points for Oklahoma (23-6, 11-6 Big 12), which broke a tie with the Bears for third place in the conference and swept the regularseason series. Taurean Prince and King McClure scored 17 points each for Baylor (21-9, 10-7), which outscored the Sooners 46-29 in the second half. Baylor shot 67 percent in the second half and made 6 of 10 three-point attempts. Oklahoma went on an early 18-0 run and roared to a 26-3 lead on 9-for-13 shooting. Baylor didn’t make its second field goal until more than 9 minutes had passed in the first half. Baylor rallied to cut Oklahoma’s lead to 3217, but the Sooners responded with an 8-0 run to regain momentum.

BRIEFLY Kansas athletes earn Lage award

KU’s Ben Welle wins La. Classics

Irving, Texas — Twelve Kansas student-athletes were among a total of 74 recipients of the 2016 Dr. Gerald Lage Academic Achievement Award, the Big 12 Conference’s highest academic honor, the league announced Tuesday morning. Kansas had the most selection among Big 12 member institutions. Laura Bilsborrow, swimming and diving; Maria Jose Cardona, tennis; Anna Church, volleyball; Hannah Dimmick, track and field; Bryce Hinde, swimming and diving; Margaret Hornick, rowing; Hanna Kallmaier, soccer; Lexie Lanphere, rowing; Olivia Loney, rowing; Kaley Smith, soccer; Dasha Tsema, track and field and Cassie Wait, volleyball; will all receive the award and be publicly recognized next week at the Phillips 66 Big 12 Basketball Championships.

Kansas senior Ben Welle outlasted Thomas Detry of Illinois to win the Louisiana Classics Invitational individual title by a single stroke. Welle’s victory marks the second title of his KU career. He has four top-five finishes in the seven events in which he has competed in 2015-16. In team competition, Kansas finished second to Illinois by one stroke. The four birdies Welle recorded in the final round, including a bogey-free frontnine, helped the Moorhead, Minn., native to the win. Welle’s total of 209 was good enough to come back to Lawrence with some hardware. “I definitely knew I was in the mix coming down the stretch and really found a way to finish today,” Welle said. “Most of all it’s good to see I am becoming more and more comfortable winning golf tournaments.”

Their second-place finish was the Jayhawks’ seventh top-five in eight events. Four individual Jayhawks finished in the top-15. In addition to Welle’s winning score of 209, Charlie Hillier finished in a tie for fifth at 213, Connor Peck and Chase Hanna tied for 11th at even-par 216, Daniel Hudson tied for 28th at 221 and Brock Drogosch tied for 39th at 223.

Three Jayhawks in NCAA Indoor Kansas University’s track and field team will have three entries at the NCAA Indoor on March 11-12 in Birmingham, Ala., it was announced Tuesday night by the NCAA. Pole vaulter Casey Bowen, shot putter Nicolai Ceban will compete for the men’s team, and Daina Levy qualified in the weight throw for the women’s team.

the cake will taste like beer. ... It does not. The Guinness adds a stouty richness that makes the cake the best chocolate cake you have ever eaten. It is so good that I had to make it three times when I visited my sister and her large family because each time I made it, it was gone before everyone could have a slice. This is the best way I know to celebrate St. Paddy’s Day, the Ides of March, or anytime you want a great piece of chocolate cake.

Cake

Ingredients: 3/4 pound broccoli florets 2 teaspoons olive oil 1 clove garlic, minced or pressed Pinch red pepper flakes 1/4 cup low-sodium chicken or vegetable stock or broth (or water) 1/4 cup nutritional yeast 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt Directions: Heat a large, heavy saute pan or Dutch oven over high until very hot. While the pan heats, in a medium bowl, toss the broccoli with the olive oil until well coated. Place the florets in the hot pan, in a single layer, lightly pressing with a spatula to maximize contact with the hot surface (you should hear sizzling). Cover and cook for 1 1/2 minutes, or until the bottoms of the broccoli have some browning and char. Uncover and flip the broccoli with the spatula, then press gently again. Cover and cook for another 1 1/2 minutes. Uncover and stir in the garlic and red pepper flakes. Once fragrant (about 1 minute), add the stock and cover, allowing the broccoli to steam for 1 minute. Uncover and sprinkle on the nutritional yeast and vinegar, then stir. Let cook until all the liquid evaporates. Season with salt.

Add the eggs, one at a time, and beat until smooth. Set aside. In a large bowl, whisk together the 1 cup of cocoa powder, the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and nutmeg. In a 2-cup liquid measuring cup, stir together the vanilla, half-and-half and Guinness. With the mixer running on low, alternate adding the liquid and dry ingredients to the sugar-butter mixture, mixing just until everything is mixed and smooth.

Of all the trendy/ healthy/unusual ingredients I use regularly in my cooking, the one I get questions about most is nutritional yeast (which tastes way better than it sounds). Nutritional yeast — not the same as baking yeast — is a golden, flaky powder typically sold in natural foods stores (usually in the bulk section). It doesn’t look like much, but boy does it pack some flavor! I love nutritional yeast because it has a cheesy, nutty, savory flavor and can be sprinkled liberally on just about any vegetable or savory/ salty snack that I make. Freshly-popped popcorn or homemade baked kale chips with a bunch of this yeasty, cheesy goodness all over is, quite frankly, snacking perfection. Nutritional yeast also is my weeknight dinner go-to seasoning for roasted vegetables or veggie purees (mashed potatoes are super tasty!). And in the mornings, it gets sprinkled on just about

every egg white I cook. Plus — bonus! — it’s vegan, so if you are cooking for a crowd, it’s a safe bet that everyone can enjoy it. Did I mention it’s incredibly healthy, too? Every 2 tablespoons of this stuff adds 9 grams of protein and 4 grams of fiber to whatever you’re making, and only 1 gram of fat and 60 calories. Most nutritional yeasts are fortified with B vitamins, making it even better. Plus, nutritional yeast is a naturally good source of iron and selenium. Please ignore the unfortunate name and try nutritional yeast next

time you roast some veggies. And just for fun, in today’s recipe I’m sharing a quick stovetop method for making one of my all-time favorites — roasted broccoli. I love roasted broccoli, but sometimes I need dinner on the table in minutes. This recipe makes that happen. So enjoy this double-duty recipe — a new ingredient, and a new technique.

air bubbles. Smooth the top, then bake for 1 hour 10 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted at the center comes out clean. Meanwhile, prepare the glaze. In a medium bowl, whisk together all ingredients until smooth. Set aside. When the cake is done, let it cool in the pan for 25 minutes. Set a wire cooling rack over the pan, then invert it so the cake stands on the rack. For ease of cleanup, set the rack over a rimmed baking sheet or a sheet of kitchen parchment. Use a tooth pick to poke deep holes all over the top of the cake. Spoon glaze over the top of the cake and wait until it seeps into the holes. Spoon more glaze into the holes, then wait 10 minutes. Spoon the remaining glaze all over the top so it covers the holes and drizzles down the sides.

Probiotic Supplements Also Enhance Immunity in Seniors Researchers have long known that intestinal bacteria influence the integrity of our immune systems, but gut health sometimes affects people differently, depending on their age. “Elderly adults have alterations in their gut microbiota and immune functions that are associated with higher susceptibility to infections and metabolic disorders,” wrote Caroline E. Childs, PhD, of the University of Reading, United Kingdom. Childs and her colleagues asked 37 seniors to participate in a four-phase study to test the effects of a specific probiotic, Bifidobacterium lactis. Each phase of the study lasted three weeks and was separated by a four-week washout period, intended to avoid overlapping effects. During the four phases, participants received supplements containing the prebiotic galacto-oligosaccharide (which bacteria use as a food source), B. lactis, a combination of B. lactis and the prebiotic, and maltodextrin as a placebo. The B. lactis dose contained 1 billion CFUs (colony forming units). Among other things, the researchers looked at the phagocytosis of white blood cells—that is, how well the white blood cells attacked and digested disease-causing bacteria or infected cells. Childs and her colleagues reported that the B. lactis significantly increased the phagocytic index, or activity, of two important types of white blood cells, monocytes and granulocytes. The researchers noted one other finding. Although most studies of probiotics in adults found that a four-week washout was sufficient, it was not in the seniors. Instead, they seemed to retain the probiotics for a longer time. Reference: Maneerat S, Lehtinen MJ, Childs CE, et al. Consumption of Bifidobacterium lactis Bi-07 by healthy elderly adults enhances phagocytic activity of monocytes and granulocytes. Journal of Nutritional Science, 2013: doi 10.1017/jns.2013.31.

Vitamin C May Reduce Risk of Some Strokes Vitamin C is needed for the formation of collagen, a protein necessary for the integrity of blood-vessel walls. In hemorrhagic stroke, which accounts for about 10 percent of all strokes, a blood vessel in the brain ruptures. A researcher at Pontchaillous University Hospital, France, and his colleagues measured vitamin C levels in 135 subjects, 65 of whom had previously suﬀered a hemorrhagic stroke. Vitamin C levels in the stroke patients were signiﬁcantly lower than in the healthy subjects. Kimlin MG. American Journal of Epidemiology, 2014: 179:864-874.
