Bill would lower sales tax on food, drop tax break for businesses Topeka (ap) — A Wichita legislator is trying to persuade his colleagues to roll back a tax exemption for some Kansas business owners in order to reduce the state’s sales tax on groceries. Republican Rep. Mark Hutton has proposed a bill that would do away with an income tax break for owners of limited liability companies and use the extra revenue to lower the state’s sales tax on groceries, The Wichita Eagle reported. The bill is scheduled for a hearing today before the House Taxation Committee. The Kansas Department of Revenue estimated that removing the tax exemption would raise about $261 million. That would

allow the state to lower the sales tax on groceries to between 2.6 percent and 2.9 percent. Kansas currently taxes groceries at 6.5 percent, the secondhighest in the nation, and that can increase to as much as 10 percent with local sales taxes on unprepared food. Hutton led a coalition last year that tried to remove the same income tax exemption. That effort stalled when Gov. Sam Brownback, who pushed the exemption as a way to attract businesses to Kansas, threatened to veto any bill that contained the provision. The Republican governor has made similar comments this session. Hutton said his bill is designed to start a

conversation about the food taxes and the special exemption for some businesses. He acknowledged using the revenue from ending the LLC tax break to lower grocery sales taxes wouldn’t address the state’s financial problems, but he said it would make the state’s tax system fair to everyone and could spur economic growth. As the owner of a construction firm, Hutton benefits from the business income tax exemption while his employees pay state income tax on their wages. He said he’s spoken to several business owners who are “uneasy with this arrangement and believe that is kind of a slight to our employees.”

contract to demolish the Docking building without legislative approval. Because of the high cost of moving the power plant, some senators have suggested keeping the building, or leaving the ground floor and the power plant in place. But Dennis Lloyd, a bond adviser from Columbia Capital Management, told senators that bond rating companies are “hyper-sensitive” to any indication from a governing body that it might not be willing to pay on a legal debt. He said passage of the bill could conceivably drop the state’s bond rating to Bbb, down from its current Aa-. Wolf and other senators, including Jim Denning of Overland Park, said they doubted that any such downgrade would occur, especially since the bill provided that the state would pay all of the legal obligations it had incurred up to the time the bill passed. Sen. Ty Masterson, who chairs the Senate Ways and Means Committee, said Brownback did express concerns about the bill’s impact on the state’s bond rating during private discussions, but Masterson said they agreed not to talk about it publicly, especially in front of news media, for fear of triggering concern by bond rating agencies. But that only further angered senators who were not part of that discussion, including Sen. Michael O’Donnell, RWichita, who shouted, “He announced it on Twitter.”

during debate on the budget bill. And during Monday’s caucus meeting, he accused the administration of trying to circumvent the Legislature by committing sales tax from the Village West development in Kansas City, Kan., which is about to come back on the tax rolls, to new developments in that area that have not yet been approved by the Legislature. Specifically, Denning said one of the reasons why estimates of future sales tax revenue were revised downward in November is because Brownback has already committed $4 million a year from Village West to finance development around the Schlitterbahn water park and a new athletic training center in the Village East district. In addition, though, Denning said Brownback has been planning to commit $42 million a year from Village West to finance development in yet another STAR bond district that hasn’t been approved, one where the administration hopes to lure the American Royal, which is now located in Kansas City, Mo. On top of that, he said, there are plans to use $1 million in sales taxes from a hotel that’s being proposed in the Village West area as additional funding for development around the American Royal facility. Brownback’s communications office did not immediately respond to questions about whether those statements were accurate. Denning said he wants to make sure that STAR bond districts are treated as a whole, and that sales taxes from one are not used to pay for projects in other districts. Other senators said the same thing could be accomplished by passing a STAR bond cleanup bill that has already cleared a Senate committee and is waiting for action by the full Senate. But Senate President Susan Wagle, R-Wichita, said that bill has already drawn substantial opposition from developers, and she said she doesn’t think it will pass until very late in the session. The Senate could decide to take up either one or both of the veto overrides as early as today.

the Docking State Office Building or to relocate a heating and air conditioning power plant in the building without legislative approval. l And a proviso in the recently passed budget bill that would block the formation of any new STAR bond districts in Wyandotte County, where the administration hopes to lure the American Royal from Kansas City, Mo., and the development of a new hotel.

Docking building Lawmakers passed Senate Bill 250 in haste Feb. 23 after they were caught off guard to learn that the administration had entered a lease-purchase agreement with Bank of America and signed a construction contract to relocate the heating and air conditioning unit known as a “power plant,” even though an oversight committee had expressed misgivings because bids for the project had come in much higher than expected. It passed 40-0 in the Senate and 121-1 in the House. Sen. Kay Wolf, R-Prairie Village, who chairs the oversight committee, said that at no time during the debate on the bill did anyone from the administration raise concerns about its impact on the state’s bond rating, and it was never mentioned in the governor’s veto message delivered March 4. In fact, his veto message said only that the bill was not needed because the administration had already cancelled the contract, although senators noted that the contracts weren’t cancelled until after the bill passed. “We passed this legislation on Feb. 23,” Wolf told Secretary of Administration Sarah Shipman. “It was enrolled on the 24th, given to the governor, and you didn’t say anything until, I assume, March 4.” The bill was what lawmakers call as a “non-appropriation” bill because it blocked the use of any state funds for payment of a contract, thus triggering a standard clause in state contracts that says they are subject to appropriation. In addition, though, it also would have prohibited the administration from entering into any

STAR bonds restriction One possible override that may have a better chance of success is the budget proviso halting the formation of any new sales tax revenue or STAR bond districts in Wyandotte County until lawmakers can pass another bill tightening controls on the use of those bonds. STAR bond districts are areas where the new sales taxes generated by new commercial development are used to pay for streets and other infrastructure in that development area. The Village West shopping area, which also includes the Kansas Speedway and other sports facilities, was the first STAR bond district established by the state. Denning added that proviso as an amendment

zines, the popular term for the genre of fan-made, self-published magazines under which these fall, according to a recent

KU announcement. “They are certainly a form of outsider writing,” Farmer said in KU’s announcement. “They often go unnoticed by mainstream culture. A lot of them are what you could call ‘publications of high weirdness.’” While some appear more polished, others look like the kind of homemade books people created in middle school on folded-in-half computer paper — handdrawn illustrations and bubble-letters included. The topics addressed

in the Solidarity zines include “killing the fur industry,” the Occupy movement, World Trade Organization protests, socialism, anarchy and other political ideas, according to KU. There’s also some zines dedicated to arts, music and culture, plus Farmer’s personal favorite title, “13 Ways of Looking at Bill Murray.” Originating in the 1930s, zines were often devoted to science fiction and fandom and became increasingly political over the

The apartment and retail development is located at 1101 and 1115 Indiana St. in the Oread neighborhood, an area known to be congested. The commission voted unanimously to defer a vote until their questions were answered. Letchinger said Monday that since the meeting, JDL has “put forth a tremendous amount of

you want to look at the reports yourself, they’re available online at agriculture.ks.gov. There you will find details about the specific violations, which can vary greatly. Establishments can be cited for noncritical items such as products lacking detailed labels, cleaning materials not properly stored, minor plumbing issues and other such matters.

Establishments also can be cited for critical violations that can involve cross-contamination of raw and cooked foods, roach and rodent issues, and unclean food preparation areas, among other items. Some violations are corrected during the inspection. Others take longer to fix and may require a follow-up inspection. Unless otherwise noted, all businesses — even those found to be out of compliance — are found to have met the basic requirements to safely remain open. With this regular report, we try to provide basic information about food inspection activity in Douglas County. But due to the sheer volume of inspections, it is difficult for us to provide detailed information about each inspection. For the first half of March, a total of 10 establishments are either out

of compliance or have 10 or more code violations. Keep in mind, once violations are found, the department works with the staff and ownership to resolve the situation. Inspectors also conduct follow-up visits to ensure the violations are no longer an issue. Here are Douglas County restaurant inspection results for the first half of March: l Maceli’s, 1031 New Hampshire St., last had a regular inspection on March 10, and 14 violations were found. The establishment is currently listed as out of compliance. l The Flamingo Club, 501 N. Ninth St., last had a regular inspection on March 9, and 11 violations were found. The establishment is currently listed as out of compliance. l Sigma Kappa Sorority, 1325 West Campus

research and effort.” “I think at the last commission meeting we hadn’t anticipated all the questions, and we hadn’t done our homework as we should have,” Letchinger said. “We were put to task by each commissioner.” Letchinger met individually with commissioners to answer questions, he said. The city also received a plan March 2 for how the garage will be operated, as well as a study commissioned by JDL about the garage’s feasibility. The operation plan was put together by SP+, the company hired to be the garage’s operator. It states valets would staff the garage all day, every day, and it would take them three to six minutes, on average, to retrieve a vehicle. Walker Parking Consultants, the company JDL commissioned to study the parking strategy, wrote in

its report that the average stall size in five other operating valet garages was 7.5 feet — the smallest available in the HERE garage. Scott McCullough, city planning director, said city commissioners would be asked at their March 22 meeting to approve the parking strategy. The parking garage will have 510 parking spaces, 77 fewer than what the robotic parking would’ve allowed. At the Jan. 26 meeting, developers asked that they be allowed to fill all of the development’s 624 bedrooms before they secured the number of parking spaces required by city code. In this go-round, developers aren’t seeking that exemption. If the City Commission approves the new strategy, including 510 garage spaces and 108 on-street spots, JDL could lease all but 23 bedrooms. The

development is expected to be complete in time for Kansas University’s fall semester. Those 23 bedrooms, as well as the 13,000 square feet of retail and restaurant space in the development’s lower levels, must remain empty until more parking is secured. “We do still need additional parking in order to activate the entire building,” Letchinger said. To fill that parking void, developers first proposed razing an apartment building at 1137 Indiana St. and building a traditional, 96-vehicle parking garage. According to a news release from JDL, developers started looking at other options when concerns were expressed that the property at 1137 Indiana St. was historic. Letchinger said JDL has developed a “satisfactory solution” to secure the necessary spaces, though

he would not share Monday what the solution entailed. Because it’s a separate issue, he didn’t want that solution to be a distraction in the City Commission’s March 22 discussion, he said. The plan would likely be announced in the next few weeks, he said. He added that it’s possible the extra parking could be in place by fall in order to fill the retail and restaurant space. “We wanted to have this fully vetted and a solution in place before we go to the public with it,” Letchinger said. “We’re thrilled that we’ve finally gotten here.” McCullough said that any parking plan proposed by JDL would have to be decided on by the City Commission.

portray was kind of how everyone is equal and together,” he explained. “We start together in the same place, and we’ll all end up basically as a skeleton somewhere.” The woman in the image is Dykes’ mother, Mary, whom he said he often uses in his work because he likes the unique quality of her facial expressions. “She can get that look that not a lot of people can get, and I can relate that to a lot of different images,” he said. Dykes received the

silver medal for his photograph “Self Contemplation.” In that image, a man lies on his back under swirls of smoke. As the idea behind it is focused on the individual, Dykes said, he sees his two award-winning works as very different. “‘Self Contemplation’ is more about what’s happening within the guy’s head and thoughts,” he said. In February, Dykes received seven first-place awards in photography at the regional Scholastic

competition, which qualified those pieces for nationals. Those awards followed a turning point for Dykes, who said he recently shifted his focus from athletics to art. Being new to the Scholastic competition, Dykes said he wasn’t sure what to expect at the national level, but he realizes getting two works recognized is a pretty big deal. He said he’s looking forward to what that exposure may bring him. “I’m really excited about it, to see what will

happen and where they’ll go and if I get any more comments or input on what people think,” he said. “That’s always helpful and good to hear.” Dykes’ work and other art and writing that received national gold medals will be part of an exhibit in New York. A portion of the art and writing will be selected in late summer for a national tour.

to a block grant system last year, combining several different kinds of aid into a single grant, exact comparisons to previous years are difficult to make. According to the most recent official budget analysis, total funding for schools this year will top $4 billion, more than any other single year in the past. But there were winners and losers in the shift to the block grant system, and the Lawrence school district is one of those that lost funding. “No, that’s definitely not been our experience in Lawrence,” said Lawrence school board president Vanessa Sanburn in

response to the GOP argument. According to Lawrence’s own budget documents, total spending this year from its general fund and local option budget — the sources of dayto-day operating expenditures — will be about $58.1 million, which is $5.7 million, or 9 percent, less than the year before. And because Lawrence’s enrollment grew over the year, per-pupil spending this year will be about 10 percent less than last year. The Kansas Supreme Court ruled in February that parts of the block grant bill enacted last year are unconstitutional because it forces some

districts to levy higher property taxes than other districts to achieve comparable levels of funding. According to the Kansas State Department of Education, the Lawrence district now receives about $1.5 million less in aid for its local option budget than it would have received under the old formula. And it receives about $656,000 less in aid for its capital outlay budget. The House and Senate budget committees will hold hearings this week on bills aimed at addressing the Supreme Court’s ruling. The House bill, which will be debated today, would effectively restore

The tracks run along Highway 50, which has no barrier that would prevent a vehicle from leaving the roadway and driving near or onto the tracks. The road and tracks are separated by a shallow depression. Authorities were examining tire tracks leading to the rails. The damage did not appear to be intentional, Gray County sheriff’s Deputy J.G. Sharp said.

The track was inspected last week, Weener said. Daniel Aiken, of Lenexa, said he heard screaming as he climbed out of an overturned car. He stopped to smell a fluid that was flowing through the car, fearful that it was fuel, but was reassured when he realized it was water. “Once people realized the train wasn’t going to blow up, they calmed down,” he said. Timothy Davidson, from Nashville, Tenn., said he and several other passengers heard what he called “a lot of clacking for

about 20 minutes” before the accident. “The train didn’t sound right,” he said. Dave Gibbs, a Colorado man who was headed to Lawrence for a possible chef’s job, said the train “started rattling back and forth, and you could tell it was off the tracks.” That shaking lasted five to seven seconds, he said, before the train began tipping, then coming to an abrupt stop that sent a woman tumbling onto him. “I was waiting for the worst.

years, Farmer said. Unlike formal scholarly articles or high-quality published books, zines aren’t usually archived in orderly ways, nor are they built to last. Farmer said the hope is to continue adding zines to the Wilcox Collection, and to eventually digitize them. Last year, the Wilcox Collection celebrated its 50th anniversary at KU. The collection — unique among political collections because of its breadth — boasts more than 100,000 items from bumper stickers to books, and KU Libraries has a fund with which to purchase new materials. That seems good, because although zine production may have tapered off through the decades, it sure doesn’t seem like radical political fodder has. I’m just thinking about the current presidential campaign, militia takeovers of nature preserves, young people joining ISIS — there’s plenty of “weirdness” that could one day have a home in this collection. When I interviewed collection founder Laird Wilcox last year, he said this about America and the importance of free speech: “If the collection stands for anything, it’s the fact that our country’s made up of a matrix of beliefs ... We’ve had this long tradition of freedom of speech where you can say something, but I can talk back. That’s a major factor in keeping our democracy stable.”

Rising rates Kansans may soon see yet another increase in their electrical bills.

estar Energy has been making news recently — some of which may not be good for the company’s customers. The Topeka-based electrical utility reportedly is evaluating options for its future, including the possible sale of the company. News that Westar might be looking for a buyer caused the company’s stock to jump to an all-time high late last week. What may be of even more interest to the utility’s 700,000 Kansas customers, however, is a rate increase request that’s pending before the Kansas Corporation Commission. The request would raise the Westar transmission rate by 31 percent, about $4 a month, for residential customers. Schools would see a 29 percent increase in the rate, while businesses would see reductions ranging from 1 percent for mid-sized businesses to 21 percent for small-business customers. The rate increases, which would generate an additional $25 million for Westar, are proposed to take effect on April 1. That’s only about seven months after a general rate increase approved in September that brought in an additional $78 million for the company. According to news reports, the transmission charge currently provides an 11.3 percent profit for Westar stockholders. No wonder the stock price is going up. The KCC may consider the rate case later this week, and it will be interesting to see how Kansas consumers are represented in the proceedings. The Citizens’ Utility Ratepayer Board was created by state statute to represent consumer interests, but the board has been experiencing significant turmoil since the resignation in December of its longtime consumer counsel, David Springe. Board members discussed a different mission for CURB and fired its interim counsel over disagreements about the duties of that job. In late February, the board announced the hiring of a new consumer counsel but still is advertising for two other key jobs on its small staff: a staff attorney and a regulatory accountant/ economist. The new consumer counsel, David Nickel, served as legal counsel for the KCC and worked for a Wichita law firm that specializes in oil and gas law before taking the job at CURB. Hopefully, Nickel has had enough time to get up to speed on the Westar issues and will provide some meaningful advocacy on behalf for Kansas consumers. Customers have a right to be concerned especially about another Westar request coming so soon after September’s increase.

New borders might benefit Mideast Erbil, Iraq — Massoud Barzani, the president of the autonomous region of Iraqi Kurdistan, has an urgent message for world leaders: With the Mideast in chaos and the Islamic State “caliphate” entrenched across swaths of Syria and Iraq, now is the time to rethink the boundaries of the region. But unlike 100 years ago, when Britain and France divided up the Arab world, Mideast leaders must partake in the process. Part of the Mideast reboot, Barzani hopes, will be the emergence of an independent Iraqi Kurdistan. He wants to hold a nonbinding referendum this year asking his fellow Iraqi Kurds to endorse the idea of independence. (The vote wouldn’t involve an actual declaration.)

Old lines already gone Barzani is onto something important that Western nations haven’t yet grasped. “There has already been a redrawing of the Middle East,” he told me. We were inside his ornate, two-story presidential palace on a mountain overlooking the Kurdish capital. He was dressed in a neatly pressed version of the traditional Kurdish baggy fatigues and his signature red and white headdress. “If you look at the Middle East, the old borders are only on paper,” he said. “There are new realities on the ground.” That is certainly the case in Iraq, where the ouster of Saddam Hussein unleashed sectarian strife between Sunnis and Shiites that has splintered the country. In Syria, the regime’s brutal response to a peaceful uprising has torn the country apart, largely along sectarian lines. This sectarian strife has opened the way for the Islamic State to base itself in Sunni areas on both sides of the Syria-Iraq border. Without separating Sunnis and Shiites from each other — to some degree, since there are still mixed populations

“I think each part of Kurdistan within the last 100 years has its own special status,” he answered quickly. “Our focus and strategy is for Iraqi Kurds alone.” Barzani’s critics argue that the referendum is only meant as a distraction from his domestic problems. And trubin@phillynews.com the external barriers to independence are high: Iraq’s central government … new state opposes as structures may be the does Iran.independence, Turkey — which only way to staunch has excellent relations with the region’s sectarian Iraq’s Kurds — is unlikely to warm to the idea now that it bloodletting.” is embroiled in conflict with its own Kurds and those of in cities — the killings will Syria. continue.

ment.” But, he hastened to add, “it is for the Syrian people to decide.” Would a federal state that gave Sunnis their own autonomous area similar to Kurdistan — a sort of Sunnistan — enable the Iraqi state to survive? “A Sunnistan is one of the possibilities,” Barzani said. Then, only half joking, he added, “On the ground we already have that. It is called Da’esh-istan,” using an Arabic name for the Islamic State. “Da’esh eroded all the borders between Syria and Iraq.” As for the Kurds, Barzani insisted that the current federation between Iraqi Arabs and Kurdistan had “failed openly. If it had succeeded, our plans for a referendum might not be on the table.” “Our people must decide (if confederation is possible), but the current status is not possible,” he said. “We can’t go on like this forever.” Unlike a federal system — with one central government, as we have in the United States — a confederation means a loose link between two independent states.

New thinking needed Ideally, Barzani’s referendum — no matter how it turns out — should prod Iraq’s neighbors and the West into some new thinking. For one thing, Washington should back Barzani’s ideas on confederation, a format that might hold Iraq (barely) together. For another, the West should consider his suggestion of “an international conference with the major powers and regional powers to reach a new understanding and consensus … and to channel this into a broader new order in the area” that might be more stable. A pipe dream? Perhaps. But new state structures may be the only way to staunch the region’s sectarian bloodletting. As Barzani notes, the old maps are already obsolete. — Trudy Rubin is a columnist and editorial-board member for the Philadelphia Inquirer.

Vermont Sen.

Opposition to Trump nearly unites the rising generation.

Withdrawal to bolster peace talks, Putin says Jim Michaels and Jane Onyanga-Omara USA TODAY

Russia will begin a withdrawal of troops from Syria beginning Tuesday — the fifth anniversary of the country’s bloody civil war — in an effort to bolster peace talks that resumed Monday, President Vladimir Putin said. Putin’s surprise announcement came amid encouraging signs that a partial cease-fire adopted Feb. 27 has led to the first significant drop in violence in the country. Russia’s military won’t withdraw entirely from Syria. The Russian airbase in the province of Latakia and a naval facility in the Syrian port of Tartous will continue to operate, Russia’s TASS news agency said. It is not clear what impact Putin’s announcement will have on an air campaign Russia has waged in Syria against forces that oppose the regime of President Bashar Assad. Since Russia stepped up military action in support of Assad, the regime’s forces have achieved a series of victories against rebels, including some backed by the United States. “I think that the tasks set to the Defense Ministry are generally fulfilled. That is why I order to begin withdrawal of most of our military group from Syria starting from tomorrow,” Putin said Monday at a meeting with Defense Minister Sergey Shoigu, TASS reported. The Obama administration reacted warily to the announcement. “It’s hard for me to assess what kind of impact this will have on the talks,” White House spokesman Josh Earnest said. “We’ll have to see just what exactly Russia’s intentions are.” After Putin’s announcement, Obama spoke with the Russian leader by phone, the White House said. Obama welcomed the cessation of hostilities but said continued military operations by Assad’s forces risks undermining the agreement and peace talks. In Geneva, negotiators gathered for a new round of talks, but the combatants appeared no closer to reaching a compromise. A coalition that includes the U.S., Turkey and Saudi Arabia says Assad has used brutal tactics against his people and should step aside. Russia and Iran remain steadfast supporters of Assad.

Droids and ’noids usher in ‘robot society’ at SXSW Rick Jervis USA TODAY

Androids, geminoids and old-fashioned robots roamed the South by Southwest Interactive Festival in a plethora of sessions and demonstrations. They posed a strong argument that a robotic future is not coming — it’s here. There were no visible anti-robot demonstrations this year, but the titles at some sessions, such as “Robot Armageddon: AI, Jobs and Inequality” or “Will AI Augment or Destroy Humanity?” showed that humans and robots AUSTIN

still occupy an uneasy existence with one another. One of the more popular sessions was given Sunday by Japanese roboticist Hiroshi Ishiguro, who brought foot-high robots he calls “consumers” and a fullscale, lifelike android resembling himself. The android sat on a chair a few feet from Ishiguro, blinking at the audience and holding spontaneous conversations when spoken to. A geminoid looks exactly like an android but lets a user manipulate it and talk through it remotely. Ishiguro said he could send a geminoid in his place to a

conference in Tokyo and talk through it using a “brain-machine interface” that fits on his head and allows him to see the audience. His androids are used as shopkeepers and TV hosts throughout Japan, he said. “I think we’ll have a robot society in the very near future, in maybe three or five years,” Ishiguro said. Thavidu Ranatunga, chief information officer for Californiabased Fellow Robots, said he could see why people may be alarmed at the rapid pace of robot technology, but robots are decades away from posing any real

concerns. The technology will arise in a natural, inevitable way, he said. “It’s a case of how you treat it when it happens,” Ranatunga said. “If you try to get in its way, you may have conflict. If you try to work with it, things will go better.” Ishiguro closed the session by letting his android and “consumer” robot engage in a conversation with one another. The talk quickly turned existential. “What is the meaning of our existence?” the android asked. “What is humans? What are robots?” the robot answered. “That will bring us to the truth.”

Nominate new justice now, Millennials say Poll shows support for president’s position on tapping someone to succeed Scalia Susan Page and Jenny Ung USA TODAY

WASHINGTON Millennials back President Obama on this: A new Supreme Court justice should be nominated and confirmed to replace the late Antonin Scalia as

soon as possible. But they also don’t think an appointment should last forever. More than six in 10 say Supreme Court justices shouldn’t have lifetime appointments. A USA TODAY/Rock the Vote poll of 1,541 adults ages 18 through 34 finds a generational

consensus on an issue that has split the capital and the country along partisan lines. Obama is now vetting potential nominees for the high court, but Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky has declared that the Republican-controlled Senate won’t hold hearings or a vote, no matter whom he names. “I think the sooner it gets done, the better,” Lloyd Sharp, 30,

of Boston, who was among those polled, said in a follow-up interview. But Cameron Lee Craig, 25, of Amelia, Ohio, isn’t so sure. “He’s about to not be president any more, and it should be up to the person who’s going to be president for the next four years,” she says. In the poll, 35% strongly agree that a new justice should be named and confirmed as soon as

possible and another 33% “somewhat” agree. Twelve percent “somewhat” disagree and 5% strongly disagree. Nearly eight in 10 in the rising generation would like a nominee who is “moderate and willing to see other points of view.” The survey has a credibility interval, akin to a margin of error, of plus or minus 4.6 percentage points.

Super Tuesday sequel could extend Dems’ duel Heidi M. Przybyla USA TODAY

Hillary Clinton hoped Tuesday’s primaries in five states in the South and Midwest would cement her grip on the Democratic presidential nomination. Instead, they’re likely to make clear the race will be a slog for many weeks. Clinton holds a wide lead in Florida and North Carolina, but recent polls show a tight race in Missouri and Sanders narrowing her advantage in Illinois and Ohio. After the Vermont senator pulled off a surprise victory last week in Michigan, closing a 20point gap in polls, backers of both candidates expect more gains for Sanders on Tuesday. “Ohio’s going to be the same,” said Rep. Tim Ryan, D-Ohio, who backs Clinton. “It’s going to be a tough race down to the wire.” The Sanders campaign hopes a strong showing Tuesday could lead to momentum in places such as Arizona, which will hold its primary March 22, disproving the Clinton campaign’s contention

Nathan Gonzales of the Rothenberg & Gonzales Political Report. “I still believe she will be the nominee. It’s just taking longer than expected.” The close competition in states such as Illinois and Ohio demonstrates Clinton’s difficulty in selling her proposals for creating manufacturing jobs vs. Sanders’ more visceral focus on trade deals he says hollowed out the Rust Belt, such as the North American Free Trade Agreement, signed into law by Bill Clinton in 1993.

Sanders, an independent, “has no real loyalty to the Democratic Party,” Gonzales said. “He’s got plenty of money to run the campaign.”

It’s must-win time for Rubio and Kasich Without home-state wins, there will be pressure to drop out David Jackson USA TODAY

FORT LAUDERDALE It is now or never for Marco Rubio and John Kasich. The first-term senator from Florida and the veteran governor from Ohio need to win homestate primaries Tuesday over Republican front-runner Donald Trump, or they will face intense pressure to drop out of the GOP presidential race. “I’m focused on winning Florida,” Rubio said when asked about his future after Tuesday. He has acknowledged polls show Trump far ahead in Florida, but Rubio is telling supporters that “we’re going to shock the country.” Kasich, meanwhile, leads Trump in several polls in his home state and told MSNBC, “I’m going to be the Republican nominee after we win Ohio.” He campaigned there Monday with 2012

Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney. Trump also is predicting victory in Ohio as well as Florida, which would bring him closer to the brink of the Republican presidential nomination. North Carolina, Missouri, and Illinois also are holding Republican primaries Tuesday, as Trump’s rivals — Rubio, Kasich, and Texas Sen. Ted Cruz — look to amass enough delegates to keep the New York billionaire from securing a majority on the first ballot at the July convention in Cleveland. A Rubio loss in Florida could bring to a screeching halt the rapid rise of the 44-year-old lawyer from Miami, who was littleknown nationally just seven years ago. The surprise winner of a U.S. Senate race in 2010, The New York Times tabbed Rubio as “the first senator from the Tea Party.” Rubio set his sights on the White House, but his 2016 campaign has hit roadblocks. One reason: He wasn’t the only Floridian in the race. He and former governor Jeb Bush, a former ally, seemed to get in each other’s

Bush dropped out after a poor finish in South Carolina on Feb. 20 but has not endorsed his protégé in the run-up to the Florida primary.

After a surprisingly strong third-place finish in the Iowa caucuses on Feb. 1, Rubio faded to fifth in the New Hampshire primary on Feb. 9, in part because of a poorly reviewed debate performance.

home mom from Amelia, Ohio, who was among those surveyed. “He’s kind of a jerk.” The poll, the second in a series, is part of USA TODAY’s One Nation initiative, a series of forums across the country on the most important issues of 2016. The online survey, taken by Ipsos March 3-10, polled 1,541 adults ages 18 to 34. Sanders leads Clinton among younger voters by 54%-37%, an even bigger advantage than the 11-point edge he held in January’s survey. Millennial women now back Sanders by a jaw-dropping 61%-30% while the divide among Millennial men is much closer, 48%-44%. “He’s a people-person and will bring a freshness to the country,” Tracy Wanjiku, 21, a caregiver from Alameda, Calif., says in explaining her support for Sanders. But in a Clinton-Trump standoff in November, she says, “I would vote for Hillary — not that I’m in much favor of her, but I think Donald Trump ... his idea of politics is way too over-the-top. It’s scary, to be honest.” Andres Palmer, 21, of Farmington, N.M., disagrees. Trump is “kind of aggressive in the way he wants to run the country,” Palmer acknowledges, but he adds, “It does seem like he knows more about what he’s talking about than the candidates. The other

Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders greets supporters at a campaign rally Sunday in St. Louis. candidates just seem like they have rocks for brains.” In the Republican primary race, Trump continues to lead the field, but he has hit a ceiling in his support among Millennials. In January’s poll and the new one, he was supported by 26% of Republicans and independents. He hasn’t gained from the exit of seven rivals since the start of the year. Meanwhile, Florida Sen. Marco Rubio’s support has doubled to 18% and Texas Sen. Ted Cruz’s support has nearly doubled, to 14%. Retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson, who withdrew after the survey started, was backed by 14%. Clinton is much more broadly

acceptable in her party than Trump is in his. One in five Republicans in the survey say they would stay home in a ClintonTrump election, compared with one in 10 Democrats. Millennial voters were a key part of the electoral coalition that elected Barack Obama in 2008. In surveys of voters as they left polling places that November, Obama carried voters under 30 over Republican John McCain by a lopsided 66%-32%. Clinton hasn’t generated enthusiasm among young voters — Sanders has — but Trump’s support significantly lags even McCain. Millennial voters who back different candidates tend to cite dif-

ferent priorities. Sanders supporters are much more likely than Clinton supporters to say the ideal president would be “authentic” and would “share my values.” Clinton supporters are more likely to value strong experience in government. Trump supporters are much less likely to value governmental experience and much more likely to say the ideal president would have strong experience outside government. “If he were put in office, he would be able to straighten out the economy and climate change and fix global warming,” Ashley Yago, 33, of Greeley, Colo., said of Trump in a follow-up interview. But Tanner Marroquin, 20, of Lawrence, Kan., would vote for Clinton over Trump. “I don’t like having stubborn people in places of power,” he says. The next president should be “more community-based rather than a monarch.” “I’m leaning toward Bernie Sanders” in the Democratic primaries, says Olga Figueroa, 27, of Silver Spring, Md. “I am a little more trusting of him.” But in a Clinton-Trump race, she would vote for Clinton. “Hillary may have been a little inconsistent throughout her political career, but at least she has a very straightforward and clear platform if she gets into the White House.” Trump, she says, “is a little extreme.”

Rubio rallied to a narrow second-place finish in South Carolina, but far behind Trump. He has won only three GOP contests: Washington, D.C., Minnesota and Puerto Rico. During a recent Rubio event in Largo, supporters said they are more hopeful than confident about the Florida primary. “Well, we need a miracle,” said Janet Rontos, 79, a retired school teacher from Largo. “But God is in the business of miracles, right?” Ann Goergen, 69, a retiree from St. Petersburg, Fla., said the primary “might be tight,” but Rubio “keeps plugging away — that’s what I like about him.” Rubio’s strategy was to survive early contests and have more traditional Republican voters — and money — come to him as the sole alternative to Trump. It hasn’t worked out that way. Kasich and Cruz remain in the race. There is evidence that Kasich and Cruz have taken antiTrump votes from Rubio, and vice versa, and that may happen in Florida and other primaries on Tuesday.

Kurdish peshmerga forces and fighters from the Yazidi minority enter the northern Iraqi town of Sinjar last November. The Kurdish news agency Rudaw reported that on Monday, Muhammad Jamal Amin, inset, an American from Virginia, was trying to flee to Turkey when he approached a checkpoint in Sinjar.

TROUBLES SURFACE IN RANKS OF ISIL Virginia man reportedly defects; numbers dwindling

John Bacon USA TODAY

A Virginia man identified by Kurdish forces as a member of the Islamic State in Iraq turned himself in Monday while apparently trying to flee to Turkey, Kurdish military authorities said. Spokesmen for the State Department and White House said they were still collecting information on the case. “Obviously, U.S. officials have been in touch with both Iraqi and Kurdish officials about ... this situation,” White House press secretary Josh Earnest said. The Kurdish news agency Rudaw, citing a local command-

er, said Muhammad Jamal Amin is an American citizen from Virginia with a Palestinian father and Iraqi mother from Mosul. Rudaw said Amin had mistaken peshmerga territory for the Turkish border when he approached a checkpoint near the Iraqi town of Sinjar, which in recent months had been taken back from Islamic State militants. The peshmerga, the Kurdish nationalist guerrilla organization, initially fired on Amin before detaining him, Rudaw reported. Amin had entered Syria from Turkey two months ago, Rudaw said. Kurdish Maj. Gen. Feisal Helkani told the Associated Press that Amin surrendered with cash, three cellphones and

NBC News reported that the man pictured in photos as Amin was identified by an uncle as Mohamed Jamal Khweis, 26, of Alexandria, Va. Kamal Khweis told NBC his nephew does not speak Arabic. The Obama administration estimates there are now fewer than 25,000 Islamic State militants, down about 6,000 from less than two years ago. Last month, Earnest cited battlefield deaths and the difficult task the group faces in luring new recruits to explain the drop in numbers. Late Monday, the Department of Defense confirmed to USA

TODAY that senior ISIL operative Omar al-Shishani is believed to be dead after an airstrike several days ago in Northern Syria. Initially, al-Shishani was reported to have died in an airstrike a week ago, but later reports indicated he was initially injured. Last week, a former Islamic State militant reportedly leaked documents containing names, addresses and phone numbers of 22,000 extremists to Sky News, the British broadcaster said. And in Rochester, N.Y., a pizza shop owner who admitted in December to recruiting for ISIL, has “renounced” the terror group, federal prosecutors said. Mufid Elfgeeh is to be sentenced Thursday.

A Kalamazoo Uber driver accused of killing six people and wounding two last month told police that the ride-sharing app took over his “mind and body” and made him carry out the rampage. In a series of interviews with police in the hours after the Feb. 20 shootings, Jason Dalton, 45, blamed the killings on the Uber app, saying his iPhone directed him where to go and when to shoot people. Dalton said he would have gotten in a shootout with police when he was arrested, but the app directed him not to. Dalton is accused of shooting people at three locations across the

TOKYO Even in socially conservative Japan, it’s not a good idea to dis a working mom — especially in the age of social media. That’s what Prime Minister Shinzo Abe learned the hard way after a complaint about the continuing shortage of day care in Japan went viral and forced the administration to rush forward plans for an overhaul. Abe announced Friday that he would create 500,000 day care slots nationwide by the end of next year. The plan is designed to end notoriously long waiting lists that have prevented women from returning to the workforce or resuming promising careers after childbirth. An anonymous blogger triggered the controversy with a rant last month about her failed quest to find day care. The author said she had no choice but to quit her job to take care of her new child, and she gave the post a provocative title that roughly translates: “My child wasn’t accepted at nursery school. Die, Japan!” The message spread quickly across Japan’s active social media and jumped to the mainstream news media as well. Although Abe has said he places a high priority on creating more opportunities for women in the workplace, only about 30% of women return to work after giving birth. “Many women want to return to work after having children, but there are few support mechanisms to help them re-enter the workplace,” said Kathy Matsui, managing director at Goldman Sachs in Tokyo in a speech last month. The online post soon made its way to Japan’s parliament, called the Diet. Instead of ad-

dressing the day care issue, Abe and his supporters focused on the anonymous author, inferring the post couldn’t be trusted. That’s all it took: Hundreds immediately showed up at the Diet building, carrying small children and signs proclaiming “Watashi da” — “It’s me!” A petition demanding better day care got 28,000 signatures in just four days and was presented Wednesday to Japan’s labor minister. Abe, whose ruling Liberal Democratic Party faces crucial elections in July, announced the day care plan on March 10. But the head of his party’s coalition partner, the Democratic Party of Japan’s Katsuya Okada, said the plan still isn’t good enough. “Abe does not understand the real pain (of working mothers),” Okada said. Tomoko Nakazawa, a single mother from the Tokyo suburbs, told the Mainichi Shimbun newspaper that she took part in the Diet protest because she had failed to find day care for her 10month-old daughter. “For these past two months, I’ve had no income and I don’t know what to do. I really empathized with this blog,” she said.

Record flooding swamps the South Doyle Rice USA TODAY

Rivers continued to rise to record levels in parts of Texas, Louisiana and Mississippi on Monday, flooding thousands of homes. Flood warnings were in effect across the region as many rivers remained dangerously high. Emergency officials said more than 4,958 homes in Louisiana were damaged by flooding, according to the Associated Press. The flooding is the result of a slow-moving storm that dumped up to 2 feet of rain on the region last week. Though the storm is gone, a massive amount of water is still moving through swollen streams and rivers on its way to the Gulf of Mexico. At least four deaths have been reported in Louisiana, the AP reported, and the National Guard has rescued nearly 3,300 people. Flooding along the Sabine River, which forms part of the border between Louisiana and Texas, has been especially bad. The river has already overtaken several parts of the town of Deweyville, Texas. Propane tanks floated in front of homes and mailboxes peeked out of the water. “We’re just telling folks that INDIANA Indianapolis: Met-

Will policymakers stay cautious after a tumultuous February? Paul Davidson @PDavidsonusat USA TODAY

With financial markets on a roller coaster in 2016, this week’s Federal Reserve meeting should reveal whether policymakers will be guided by February’s gutwrenching valley, the recent peak or the uncertainty of the ride. The Fed, which raised its

benchmark interest rate in December for the first time in nine years, is expected to keep it unchanged at a two-day meeting that begins Tuesday, standing pat for a second straight gathering. The key question: Will the Fed open the door to a June or even an April rate hike in light of the recent upswing in markets and the economy, or remain cautious? Early this year, global economic turmoil led to a stock sell-off, a rise in corporate borrowing costs and a strengthening dollar that hurt exports. Fed officials, in turn, hinted an anticipated March rate increase was likely off the table.

In recent weeks, stocks recovered, corporate credit costs stabilized and the dollar weakened.

Also, job growth and consumer spending rebounded, and inflation picked up smartly. Fed futures, however, are still giving under 50% odds of a June hike from today’s 0.4% rate and expect just one-quarter percentage point hike in 2016, down from Fed policymakers’ December forecast of four such increases. Fed officials “want to walk markets back to reality,” says Richard Moody, chief economist of Regions Financial. The key part of the Fed’s statement will be its view of risks to its outlook. In January, the Fed didn’t make an appraisal, saying it was monitor-

ing” global and market developments. Moody predicts the Fed this week will say risks to the outlook are “nearly balanced,” putting at least the June meeting back in play for a hike. Morgan Stanley isn’t so bullish. It notes inflation is likely to fall again, and New York Fed chief William Dudley recently was pessimistic about risks. The Fed also may be wary of the market rally, noting it must be sustained to ease uncertainty. Morgan thinks the Fed will refrain again from judging risks to its outlook, a move that likely would mean a June move is less likely.

AUSTIN Science and technology have always cut with doubleedged swords, capable of both propelling humanity to new achievements while threatening us with potential catastrophe. That chilling theme was explored by two leading technologists at SXSW Interactive, a festival that has seen its share of humans rising against the machines. While no protests were in evidence so far this year — in 2015 a group called Stop the Robots demonstrated against an automated future — there’s still time. The 30th edition of SXSW is rife with provocative sessions such as Can AI Systems Really Think? and Androids and Future Life. In separate talks, the promise and pitfalls of both DNA sequencing and artificial intelligence were laid out by quantum physicist turned human genome expert Riccardo Sabatini and telecom veteran turned entrepreneur Dag Kittlaus, who developed the virtual personal assistant Siri and sold it to a persistent Steve Jobs in 2010. “It is important to prevent the bad side,” Kittlaus, 49, said during his cheerfully titled talk, Will AI Augment or Destroy Humanity? “It’s a good idea to keep an eye on this.” When the moderator, tech author Steven Levy, asked Kittlaus if in fact supercomputers might not take over for entrepreneurs, using their digital brains to create things faster than humans, Kittlaus nodded.

“Yes, it will happen,” he said. “It’s just a matter of when.” Kittlaus, it can be argued, is hastening the arrival of that day. Later this year, he will unveil Viv, an open source and cloud-based personal assistant that will allow humans “to talk to the Internet” and have the Internet talk back. “The more you ask of Viv, the more it will get to know you,” he said. “Siri was chapter one, and now it’s almost like a new Internet age is coming. Viv will be a giant brain in the sky.” Kittlaus said Viv would differ from Siri, Microsoft’s Cortana and Amazon’s Echo by being able to make mental leaps. For example, asking Viv “What’s the weather near the Super Bowl” would cause it to “write its own program to find the answer, one that first determines where the Super Bowl is and then what the weather will be in that city,” he said. Levy laughed. “So,” he said, “if I stumble out of a bar and just say ‘I’m drunk,’ will it call me an Uber?” Kittlaus smiled. “It might, or it might order you another drink.” Such levity aside, privacy and security issues pop to mind when considering a cloud-based system

that’s gobbling up data to create a digitized picture of our lives. Apple’s current battle with the FBI over providing code to crack open a killer’s iPhone is one matter; granting access to a thinking machine that is privy to a person’s smallest details would be quite another. Kittlaus’ answer to a question about secure data was less than convincing: “It will be up to you to tell it what you want to tell it.” On the topic of DNA sequencing, humans will have to bear the responsibility of ethically handling coming leaps, said Sabatini, 34, a researcher who captivated TED 2016 last month with a lecture that found him hauling 175 thick books on stage — the full genetic make-up of DNA-sequencing pioneer J. Craig Venter. Sabatini works for Venter’s company, Human Longevity Inc. “We should as a species get informed, because this is a controversial topic,” the Italian scientist said. “We need to come to an ethical understanding, or we might get to an unhealthy story.” Sabatini said that as we understand more about our genetic makeup — of which “only about 1% is clear to us” — there will be the opportunity not only to check for potential diseases before they ravage the body, but also to genetically modify a future human to have more appealing traits. Call it man-made Darwinism. Pressed by moderator and entrepreneur Loic Le Meur about a rogue scientist or state manipulating the genes in fertilized eggs to create a race of superbabies, Sabatini demurred. “Sure, these are the worst ideas we can have,” he said. “One thing is reading the genome, another is changing it. That is not genetics, it’s selection.”

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

How’s the U.S. consumer doing? What about inflation? Is manufacturing in the New York region showing signs of life? What about business inventories? Answers to those questions will be forthcoming Tuesday, when the start of a boatload of fresh economic data is set for release before the Federal Reserve’s key meeting on interest rates Wednesday. The Fed, of course, will have to decide whether the economy is strong enough to withstand another increase in short-term interest rates. The U.S. central bank hiked rates for the first time in nearly a decade in December but held off on hiking rates at its January meeting. The Fed cited fi-

nancial market turmoil and adverse economic conditions due to slowing growth abroad for its reason to keep rates steady. But since January, stocks have rallied more than 10%, odds of a recession have dipped and oil prices have rebounded, taking much of the fear that was in the market out of it. Wall Street isn’t expecting any hikes at the March meeting, either. But investors seem to be putting back on the table a potential hike in April or June. The Fed will take its cues Tuesday from February retail sales. Any signs the U.S. consumer is spending again could give the Fed cover to talk about hiking rates in upcoming meetings. Any signs of inflation at the consumer and wholesale level perking up might also give them courage to move. The data will tell the tale, as the Fed remains data-dependent.

Average is good predictor for market direction Q: What is the 200-day investing rule? Matt Krantz

mkrantz@usatoday.com USA TODAY

A: Investors looking for an early warning to get in — or out — of the stock market often pay attention to the 200-day moving average. Turns out it’s a pretty good guide. The 200-day moving average is the market’s average price over the past 200 days. Some investors think the 200-day moving average can be a predictor of the market’s direction. When stocks cross below the 200-day moving average, proponents of this strategy expect the market to stumble more and sell their shares. In contrast, when stocks rise above their 200-day average, proponents of this strategy see that as a bullish sign and buy more shares. After the 200-day moving average, it turns out, has been a winning strategy. Investors who buy when the market is above the 200-day and sell when it’s below have enjoyed an average annual growth rate of 6.9% since 1928, topping the market’s 5.5% gain, Bespoke Investment Group says. After the 200-day day rule also resulted in roughly one-third less risk than buying and holding. Investors can’t assume this strategy will always work so well. Costs or fees, like taxes, can be incurred. Also, returns from the 200-day rule have been lower than simply buying and holding since 1965.

Apollo Global agrees to purchase Fresh Market for $1.4B Kevin McCoy @kmccoynyc USA TODAY

The Fresh Market has agreed to a roughly $1.4 billion deal to be acquired by an affiliate of Apollo Global Management, the companies said Monday. The Greensboro, N.C.-based specialty grocery chain’s shares closed up 23.6% at $28.39 in trading after the announcement. Fresh Market investors would receive $28.50 per share for their stock under the acquisition plan. The offer represents a premium

THE FRESH MARKET

Founded in 1982, The Fresh Market now operates 186 stores in 27 states across the U.S.

of approximately 24% over the firm’s $22.98 closing price Friday and roughly 53% over the closing price Feb. 10, the day before ini-

tial public speculation about a potential transaction surfaced, the companies said. The deal announcement follows what The Fresh Market characterized as a review of strategic financial alternatives. The grocery chain’s board of directors unanimously approved the deal, apart from chairman and founder Ray Berry, who recused himself from all board discussions on the proposal. Berry and his son, former company CEO Brett Berry, who collectively own approximately 9.8% of The Fresh Market’s outstanding shares, have agreed not to

tender their holdings into the tender offer by the New York City-based buyout firm. They will roll over the vast majority of their holdings in the deal, the companies said. George Golleher, the former CEO of Smart & Final and Ralphs Grocery Company/Food-4-Less during ownership by other Apollo-affiliated funds, will be a co-investor, the companies said. “We are pleased to have reached this agreement with Apollo, which follows a comprehensive review of strategic and financial alternatives that generated interest from numer-

ous parties,” Rich Noll, the grocery chain’s lead independent director, said in a statement issued with the announcement. Founded in 1982, The Fresh Market focused on bringing a feeling of old-world charm back to local groceries. The company’s stores featured fresh produce and flowers, samples of newly-brewed coffee, as well as bulk items. The Fresh Market now operates 186 stores in 27 states across the U.S. The transaction represents Apollo’s third deal of more than $1 billion in recent months. The buyout firm’s shares closed up 0.4% at $16.98.

ack Huston had the same reaction most other cinephiles probably did when hearing of a new Ben-Hur movie: “What?!” There have been a few film adaptations of Lew Wallace’s 1880 biblical novel over the years, most notably the 1959 historical epic starring Charlton Heston that won 11 Academy Awards. But now that Huston is wearing the sword and sandals of Judah BenHur in a new take arriving in theaters Aug. 12, the British-born actor sees firsthand how its sprawling landscape balances a very personal tale of one man’s journey toward redemption. “There’s something really beautiful about it, especially in the current climate of the world, about different religions and people being at odds against each other,” says the 33-year-old grandson of Oscar-winning actor and filmmaker John Huston. “How do we find our way out of this, how do we forgive, how do we forget, how do we move on, how should we treat our fellow human?” Directed by Timur Bekmambetov (Wanted), the movie retells the story of Ben-Hur, a prince in Roman-occupied Jerusalem who is betrayed by his adopted brother, Messala (Toby Kebbell). He loses everything, spends five years in the galley of a Roman slave ship and takes on an empire — and the man who did him wrong — in a grand chariot race. The cast includes Nazanin Boniadi as love interest Esther, Rodrigo Santoro as Jesus, Pilou Asbaek as Pontius Pilate and Morgan Freeman as Ilderim, who trains Ben-Hur. In Huston, Bekmambetov found an actor who not only was a “well-built, experienced horseman” but one who “felt like he was born in that era,” the director says. “I wouldn’t be surprised if some of Jack’s many famous ancestors took part in an actual fight between Romans and

The iconic Charlton Heston role and the epic historical drama get a redo

Judaeans we depict in our film.” There are some differences between the new Ben-Hur and the iconic Heston movie. The upcoming film is closer to Wallace’s book, for one, and it’s not going to be 3½ hours long. “I say that with the best of intentions,” says Huston, best known for HBO’s Boardwalk Empire. “I hope people will go into this with a very open mind and realize the beauty’s very much in the story.” Just like in the past movie, though, the race is “truly the crown jewel of the film,” Bekmambetov says. Adds Huston: “When someone says Ben-Hur, you think of chariots. Just instantly, it’s in your brain.” Huston says he and Kebbell spent 2½ months rehearsing the sequence and filming it in Italy,

and they worked up to having 32 horses going at one time on the course. “You get in with two horses on a chariot, which blows your mind, and then you put four horses on the end of your reins,” Huston says. “It would be the equivalent of a Formula 1 race. “It’s overwhelming and incredibly scary,” he says. “But after the first day where you think every second, ‘I’m gonna die, I’m gonna die, I’m gonna die,’ you decide to put that out of your brain for good, and it becomes just part of the job.”

One generation is company. Three generations is Crowded. That’s the essence of NBC’s new family sitcom, which gets a two-episode preview Tuesday (10 p.m. ET/PT). In Crowded, Mike (Patrick Warburton) and Martina (Carrie Preston) are enjoying empty-nest life, complete with assignations around the house. Their escapades are abbreviated, however, as grown daughters Shea (Miranda Cosgrove) and Stella (Mia Serafino) move back home, leading Mike’s father, Bob (Stacy Keach), and his wife, Alice (Carlease Burke), to decide against moving away to Florida. “It’s a great portrayal of a marriage, and it’s a positive one,” says Preston, a standout as a quirky lawyer on The Good Wife. “Mike and Martina like to have (their daughters) around, but we hope that they’ll become adults and maybe find their own way and their own life. I think a lot of people nowadays are dealing with the boomerang generation. They’ve raised their kids to love being in the family, so they don’t want to go. What do you do then?” Crowded, which moves to its regular Sunday slot (9:30 p.m. ET/PT) on March 20, comes in one of TV’s most recognizable styles: the multi-camera format filmed in front of a studio audience. But it doesn’t dwell in the past, she says. “It’s a very traditional sitcom, but it does have a contemporary bent to it,” Preston says. “Our daughters are openly sexually active. In the pilot, (Mike and Martina) are smoking a joint. Stuff

Martina (Carrie Preston) and Mike (Patrick Warburton) end up with their hands full in in Crowded.

like that nowadays is something a television audience can accept, but maybe a decade ago it wouldn’t have been allowed.” The deep-voiced Warburton finds Mike and his interactions with different characters appealing. His bar-owner father is more traditional, while his daughters are poles apart in personality. Shea is the brainy nerd, Stella is the popular rebel, and each could use the other’s expertise to negotiate adulthood. “In past roles, at least in the realm of sitcoms, I’ve never had an opportunity to play a character with much depth,” Warburton says. “Mike is a father who has a relationship with his father, his wife, his daughters. It was an opportunity to stretch, to be a little more well-rounded.” Crowded features estimable talent behind the scenes. Suzanne Martin (Hot in Cleveland, Frasier) created the series and is an executive producer with Will & Grace’s Sean Hayes and legendary director James Burrows. The finale of Crowded’s 13-episode season was the 1,000th episode of TV directed by Burrows. Keach, a Burrows classmate at Yale Drama School, praises the director, who was honored with a recent NBC special for his work on such classic comedies as Taxi, Will & Grace, Cheers and Friends. Burrows “has an understanding, not only of actors and character and script, but he also knows how to use the camera,” Keach says. He’s hoping the director has another success to add to his list: “He’s got the Midas touch.”

Routine screening can prevent cancer colorectal cancer could be prevented. Colorectal cancer screening allows extra growths of tissue, known as polyps, to be found and removed before they can develop into cancers. Screening also allows colorectal cancers to be found earlier, when the disease is easier to cure. It usually is recommended that those with no known risk factors for

Colon cancer is second most deadly in United States By Janice Early Lawrence Memorial Hospital

If you could prevent cancer, would you do it? The fact is the third most common cancer, excluding skin cancers, is mostly preventable, if people take advantage of screening tests.

“Colon cancer is the third most common cancer diagnosed in the United States and second most common cause of death from cancer,” says Dr. Charles Brooks, a gastroenterologist at Lawrence GI Consultants. “The amazing thing

is it’s largely preventable, if patients get themselves screened appropriately.” The Department of Health and Human Services says if everyone age 50 and older were screened regularly, six out of 10 deaths from

colorectal cancer begin screening at age 50. Some people may need to begin screening at an earlier age, including African-Americans, those with a family history of colorectal cancer, or personal risk factors such as inflammatory bowel disease. Talk with your health provider about the screening recommendations for you. Please see CANCER, page 2C

Health department sponsors student biking contest

he Lawrence-Douglas County Health Department is looking for Safe Routes superstars to share what biking means to them for a chance to win a free trip to the Youth Bike Summit. The Health Department is accepting essay/poem, artwork or video entries from Douglas County students in sixth, seventh and eighth grades sharing what they enjoy about biking, the best local places to bike and how biking helps the environment. Grand prize winners will receive a free trip for them and a parent/guardian to the Youth Bike Summit May 27-29 in St. Paul, Minn. The deadline for entries is 5 p.m. April 1. “We’re very excited to see what the students come up with for the

National Bike to School Day is May 4. contest,” said Michael Showalter, health promotion specialist. “Attending the Youth Bike Summit is

a great opportunity for local students to experience the benefits of biking on a much larger scale.”

The contest is a project of Be Active Safe Routes, a local movement to create safe opportunities for children to bike and walk to and from school, and highlights the importance of biking to school leading up to National Bike to School Day, which is May 4. A full list of contest rules is available at beactivesaferoutes.com/B2S. Entries must be accompanied by a consent form. In addition to the contest, the Health Department also will sponsor a bike parade during Lawrence’s annual Earth Day Celebration Parade on April 23.

BRIEFLY Alzheimer’s, STD link stressed An international group of Alzheimer’s researchers last week urged the medical community to change its focus when assessing the disease. In an editorial titled “Microbes and Alzheimer’s Disease,” the researchers argued that sexually transmitted diseases such as herpes simplex virus type 1 — the kind that causes cold sores — and the chlamydia bacteria have proven Alzheimer’s links that should not be ignored. The researchers cited more than 100 studies published on the link between herpes and Alzheimer’s alone. “We are saying there is incontrovertible evidence that Alzheimer’s Disease has a dormant microbial component,” said Douglas Kell, one of the editorial’s authors. That’s contrary to the prevailing hypothesis among most medical professionals: that Alzheimer’s is caused by the build-up of sticky proteins and plaques in the brain, which lead to memory loss, cognitive decline and eventually death. Research on the link between Alzheimer’s and STDs so far has failed to identify specific mechanisms that would lead to Alzheimer’s symptoms, the researchers noted, though commonalities such as nervous system damage and inflammation are byproducts of the viral and bacterial infections under suspicion. Viral and bacterial causation could also explain why Alzheimer’s appears to be transmittable through certain medical procedures, such as blood transfusions. The researchers encouraged doctors to embrace antimicrobial treatments as a means of fighting the disease.

Where does gray hair come from? Scientists believe they’ve plucked the genetic culprit responsible for graying hair. The gene, called IRF4, has been known to play a role in determining hair color, but it is now believed to be linked to a loss of pigmentation in hair that happens as we age. Researchers from the University College London pinpointed the gene in a study recently published in the journal Nature Communications. They examined DNA from more than 6,500 people of mixed ancestry in Mexico, Brazil, Colombia, Chile and Peru. In their analysis, they also found genes associated with curly hair, beard thickness and unibrow. Of course, the ratio of salt and pepper in our hair and the rate at which it happens varies. People go gray or even white as hair follicles run out of the pigment that gives their hair its natural color. But genes aren’t the only factor, scientists say. About 70 percent of gray hair is caused by environmental factors, including stress, sun exposure and smoking. In the study, researchers wrote that they hope the gray gene discovery will help to learn how to delay or even prevent graying hair and, more importantly, to discover more about the biology of aging.

These are often detected and some can be removed during the colonoscopy. “It’s ideal to deal with it when it can still be addressed with a scope endoscopically during a colonoscopy,” says Dr. Tate. “That’s the ideal time to manage a polyp. Once the surgeons get involved, it becomes a much more complicated affair.” If a cancerous growth is detected during a screening, there are many successful surgical, chemotherapy and radiation treatment options available. Many of the treatment options used today are new in the past 10 years and are proving to be very effective, which has contributed to the decrease in death rates for colorectal cancer. As a result, the American Cancer Society estimates there are now

more than one million survivors of colorectal cancer in the United States. Lawrence Memorial Hospital has two sites in Lawrence where colonoscopies are performed: the LMH Endoscopy Center at the main campus at 325 Maine St. and the LMH West Endoscopy Center at 4525 West 6th St. If you are 50 or older, talk with your doctor about colon cancer screening. You also can learn more by watching a video in which Charles Brooks, MD, Tracy Hill, APRN, and Chad Tate, MD, discuss the importance of screening colonoscopy. Visit lmh. org/colon.

There are several tests used to screen for colorectal cancer. Generally, a colonoscopy screening test is most commonly done, as it allows for visualization of the entire colon and rectum. “Everyone over the age of 50 ought to have a screening colonoscopy,” says Dr. Brooks. The American Cancer Society recommends that those with a normal colonoscopy test result have a repeat test about every 10 years.

Dear Annie: I have been married for 25 years to “Betty,” a beautiful, intelligent, caring woman from Greece. Our marriage has been good. We are financially solid, and we share values and interests. I am 63 and retired. Betty still works, and she makes a good salary. I’m in reasonably good health, although the doctors say I have to watch my heart. I don’t have the same energy I once did, and spending quiet time in my house has become important to me. I enjoy being able to focus my energies doing things on the weekends with Betty. Here’s the problem: Betty’s parents still live in Greece and they are having financial difficulties. A couple of weeks ago, Betty informed me that her parents may have to come live with us. Annie, I enjoy having

A bad apple in the new sitcom crop We seem to be experiencing a mini boomlet of old-school sitcoms. “The Carmichael Show” uses 1970s couch and conversation conventions to make serious and subversive points. Over on Netflix, “Fuller House” fills one generation’s need for nostalgia. The three-camera genre has never gone away, as ABC’s “Last Man Standing” can attest. And catering to a less trendy and more dependable audience, CBS continues to score ratings with “The Big Bang Theory,” a comedy that hardly pushes any narrative envelopes that weren’t dented by “That ’70s Show” in the late 1990s. If anything can kill our appetite for traditional sitcoms, it’s a bad sitcom. NBC’s “Crowded” (9 p.m. and 9:30 p.m., TV-14) more than fits that bill. Empty-nest parents Mike (Patrick Warburton, “Seinfeld”) and Martina (Carrie Preston, “True Blood”) embrace a breezy lifestyle (pot smoking, talking awkwardly about sex and cursing) for a couple of years before their coddled daughters, Shea (Miranda Cosgrove, “iCarly”) and Stella (Mia Serafino, “Shameless”), decide to move back into the house and cramp their swinging lifestyle. The reappearance of the granddaughters also inspires Mike’s parents (Stacy Keach, “NCIS: New Orleans,” and Carlease Burke, “Switched at Birth”) to postpone their move to Florida. It’s hard for Mike and Martina to show much chemistry when their dialogue consists of loudly shouted cliches. Cosgrove appears to be trying to shed her spunky “iCarly” image by playing a buttoned-down nerd, a postgraduate science wonk and would-be astronaut, who, in her own words, “has troubles picking up social cues.” In short, she’s auditioning for a role on “The Big Bang Theory.” Much like Mike’s libido, there’s a lot of this show that seems to have been lying dormant since the 1990s. Stella puts down Shea with a “Daria” joke, referring to a cartoon that ran on MTV from 1997 to 2002. Stella has a boyfriend named Justin (Ryan Dorsey) who adds nothing to the stoner/slacker-dude type from “Bill & Ted” or the 1989 movie “Parenthood.” Who knew Keanu Reeves would literally become a voice of a generation? Tonight’s other highlights O Mentors and battles on “The Voice” (7 p.m., NBC, TVPG). O A cop killer may be linked to the attack on Jane on the season finale of “Rizzoli & Isles” (8 p.m., TNT, TV-PG).

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS

For Tuesday, March 15: This year you could experience a lot of ups and downs. At times you might see no way out, but know that there always is one. At other times, you will be very lucky and will land well. If you are single, romance is likely to be very active. If you are attached, the two of you enjoy interacting with each other so much that you won’t let issues between you gain any power. The stars show the kind of day you’ll have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult Aries (March 21-April 19) ++++ After recent events, you’ll embrace the unexpected, as long as it doesn’t create a hassle.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) ++++ Know that you can deal with what heads your way, even if you’d prefer not to. Tonight: On top of your game. Cancer (June 21-July 22) +++ Situations change quickly, and you could be somewhat reserved as a result. Tonight: Feeling up to snuff. Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) ++++ You tend to go to extremes when it comes to spending. A little self-discipline goes a long way. Tonight: Call it an early night.

Blood will be blue in Iowa

Name dropping

College basketball blue bloods. It’s an unofficial designation with a difference of opinion on which schools deserve the label. The general consensus zeros in on six schools. Five of the schools count a shade of blue as their primary, one red. One of the schools has blue as its primary, a shade of red as its secondary. The six blue bloods, listed in alphabetical order so as not to make six fan bases turn red: Duke, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, North Carolina, UCLA.

NFL

Exec admits football, brain disease link Washington — An NFL official has acknowledged a link between football and the brain disease CTE for the first time. Jeff Miller, the NFL’s senior vice president for health and safety, spoke about the connection during an appearance Monday at a congressional committee’s roundtable discussion about concussions. Rep. Jan Schakowsky (D-Illinois) asked Miller: “Do you think there is a link between football and degenerative brain disorders like CTE?” Miller began by referencing the work of Boston University neuropathologist Dr. Ann McKee, who has found CTE in the brains of 90 former pro football players. “Well, certainly, Dr. McKee’s research shows that a number of retired NFL players were diagnosed with CTE, so the answer to that question is certainly ‘yes,’ but there are also a number of questions that come with that,” Miller said. Schakowsky repeated the question: “Is there a link?” “Yes. Sure,” Miller responded. The NFL has not previously linked playing football to chronic traumatic encephalopathy, a disease linked to repeated brain trauma and associated with symptoms such as memory loss, depression and progressive dementia. It can only be detected after death.

COLLEGE BASKETBALL

TCU fires Johnson Forth, Texas — Trent Johnson was fired Monday as TCU’s basketball coach after the Horned Frogs won only eight Big 12 Conference games in his four seasons. TCU finished 12-21 overall this season, its first in a completely renovated campus arena. Johnson was 50-79 with the Frogs, a period covering their first four seasons in the Big 12. They were 8-64 in regular-season conference games, with the losses coming by an average margin of more than 15 points. Winless in the Big 12 two years ago, they finished 2-16 in league play this season. Johnson’s best record with the Frogs was 18-15 last season, when they played all of their home games in a high school gymnasium while the $72 million renovation on their campus arena was being done.

Dawkins canned Stanford, Calif. — Johnny Dawkins got his second chance at Stanford two years ago after a special run to the Sweet 16. Yet the Cardinal couldn’t consistently make it to the NCAA Tournament, and that cost Dawkins his job. He was fired Monday after eight seasons as Stanford coach. Dawkins guided the Cardinal to the 2014 Sweet 16 and NIT championships after the 2012 and ’15 seasons, but Stanford went 15-15 this season and finished ninth in the Pac-12.

NCAA WOMEN

UConn’s road to a fourth straight national championship will begin at home. The Huskies were the top overall seed in the women’s NCAA Tournament that was revealed Monday night. UConn (32-0) won’t have to leave the state until the Final Four in Indianapolis. The Huskies are in the Bridgeport Regional. Joining the Huskies as the other No. 1 seeds are South Carolina, Notre Dame and Baylor. UConn has already beaten the Gamecocks and Irish this season. The Huskies would face Baylor on April 3 in the national semifinals if both teams advance that far. Both UConn and Tennessee won three straight women’s titles, but no women’s team has four consecutive championships. The UCLA men’s team won seven in a row. A title this year would give Geno Auriemma 11 in his career, breaking a tie with vaunted UCLA men’s basketball coach John Wooden.

His Jayhawks could meet former KU guard Mark Turgeon’s Maryland squad in a Sweet 16 game a week from Thursday in Louisville. Self agreed with Mike and Mike’s Monday panel that it would be nice to have a scenario in which NCAA Tournament committee members “could say, ‘This is the criteria we’re looking at in this order — whether it be record away from home, to neutral (sites), to top 25 wins, top 50 wins or however you want to word it.’ “It gets down to so many things. One team could be 72 in the BPI (Basketball Power Index) and be 47 in the RPI (Ratings Percentage Index) or vice versa. I think it is a little misleading and confusing. I think we can probably do a better job of educating so that way everybody has a better feel of what they are trying to actually accomplish during this.” Self said he’d never want teams to be selected solely on things such as BPI and RPI. “At some point in time, you want to take into consideration if a Denzel Valentine (Michigan State standout) was out

The correct answer, of course, is UConn, which has gone to the Final Four five times in the past 17 seasons and won the national title in four of those. The Huskies are 9-1 in Final Four games,

Schedule: The Jayhawks will practice today, then are scheduled to board a bus about 2 p.m. outside Allen Fieldhouse for a 31⁄2-hour trip to Des Moines, site of Thursday’s opener against Austin Peay. KU will hold a practice from 2:15 to 2:55 p.m. on Wednesday at Wells Fargo Arena. The public is invited. Austin Peay’s open practice is 12:45 p.m. to 1:25 p.m. Former KU guard Tad Boyle’s Colorado Buffaloes will practice from 1:30 to 2:10 p.m. l

KU still No. 1: KU was ranked No. 1 in the AP poll Monday for the third straight week. Michigan State was second, followed by North Carolina and Virginia. KU received 63 first-place votes Monday from the 65-member national AP media panel. Michigan State received the other two No. 1 votes. Oregon, the NCAA’s other No. 1 seed, is fifth, followed by Villanova, Oklahoma and Xavier. Miami and Kentucky are tied for 10th. l

ing. It doesn’t guarantee success, but you have a good feeling going into it. We’ve had guys step up and make plays. Our perimeter shooting still can be inconsistent, freethrow shooting inconsistent, defensive rebounding inconsistent. I believe we are more consistent than what we were in early February when we were winning but had great stretches and poor stretches in games.” Of his team having more veteran players this year than the past couple years, he said: “People talk about our experience, and we do start only one senior. We’re still relatively young. I don’t think they’ll all be back, but we’re relatively young. The guys are tough. They share it. They have grown up together and enjoy playing with each other. Not that the others didn’t. The other teams didn’t have the maturity the last couple years that this team has.” l

Mark’s miffed: Former KU guard Turgeon, head coach at Maryland, blasted CBS on Monday for the network’s two-hour Selection Sunday show. The show used to be an hour, with the bracket revealed at the start. “I hated the two-hour show. I think it’s ridiculous. I think it should have been a one-hour show like it always was, and let’s just get to it. We sit around all year, this is what it’s about, it’s not fair,” Turgeon told 106.7 The Fan’s Grant Paulsen and Danny Rouhier. Somebody on Twitter, who has killed his/her account, leaked the bracket during the show. “The leaked bracket helped a lot of people,” Turgeon told the radio hosts. “I hate that that happened. But the show’s too long. It should just be an hour like it was, and it’s more entertaining, and get it out there.”

qualifying for the school’s first trip to the NCAA Tournament since 2008 all the more satisfying. “It’s exciting,” Loos said. “Because of what this team is now and where it’s been.” All that matters from this point on, of course, is what the Governors do next. Both Loos and Davis acknowledged that facing Kansas (30-4) in Thursday’s first round would be a heck of a challenge. But they’re hoping that their recent success when staring another monster challenge in the face will provide them with confidence. “Us being the 8 seed (in the OVC tourney), that gave us nothing to lose, and we had to want it more to win it,” Davis said. “That helped. And we’re gonna have that same mentality against Kansas. “The biggest thing with us is just going into the game and not saying, ‘They’re a 1, they’re gonna beat us.’ As long as we believe we have a chance, that’s the biggest thing.”

BRIEFLY Kansas’ Krauth pitcher of week The Big 12 Conference named Kansas University senior left-hander Ben Krauth the league’s pitcher of the week Monday, for his performance last week against North Dakota. Krauth (1-2) kicked off KU’s perfect 3-0 weekend when he threw the first complete-game shutout of his career in a 7-0 win. Krauth hit and then picked off the first batter of the game, and after that, it was all domination. He cruised through nine innings in 112 pitches, tying a career-high nine strikeouts. He gave up four base hits, including two infield singles, and walked one batter. “We need a huge year out of him,” KU coach Ritch Price said. “He is coming back as the Big 12 Newcomer of the Year and did so well in conference play last season.”

Brooklyn, N.Y.

Starting time White Sox: Turner is 0-2 with a 10.57 ERA in three starts, allowing nine runs on 13 hits, including four homers, and four walks in 72⁄3 innings. “The stuff has been pretty good,” Turner said. “The execution has been a little bit disappointing at times, especially out of the stretch. Coming off the injury, I’m happy to be pitching, happy to be competing. I do feel like I’ve executed a lot of good pitches. Every time I go out there and pitch, I’m not trying to give up any runs if it’s spring training or Game 7 of the World Series. Every time I pitch, I’m trying to get good results and also execute pitches.” Royals: Ventura struck out the side on 13 pitches in the first inning. “All of them were changeups,” he said. “I was working on and making sure I stayed through it and it was working.” He also wriggled out of a bases loaded one-out jam in the fourth.

Surprise, Ariz. (ap) — Lorenzo Cain, Alex Gordon and Travis Snider homered as the Kansas City Royals beat the Chicago White Sox 9-3 Monday. Cain hit his first spring home run in the third off Jacob Turner after Mike Moustakas walked. Gordon homered on a 0-2 pitch from Turner to lead off the first. Gordon is 8-for-12 with three home runs and four RBIs in his past four games. Snider ripped a three-run shot in the Royals’ fiverun seventh. Royals right-hander Yordano Ventura struck out six in four innings, allowing one run and three hits. “It feels good this time of year to have a good feel for your pitches,” Ventura said. Turner, who was limited to two minor league starts last season because of an elbow injury, allowed three runs and six hits in three innings. “I left a pitch up to Gordon,” Turner said. “That home run to Cain, I was trying to go down and away and it just kind of ran back over the middle on me. I definitely need to execute that fastball down a little bit better.” Jason Coats homered for the White Sox.
