Why Bill Self doesn’t pay Kansas taxes on most of his income Staff and Wire Reports

Bill Self’s taxes — or more specifically, the lack of taxes he pays — are drawing attention after a report highlighted that the Kansas University men’s basketball coach is legally avoiding state taxes on about 90 per-

cent of his annual earnings. A report by public radio station KCUR noted that Self for years has had the bulk of his compensation paid into a limited liability company. Since 2012, that arrangement has become a tax perk, as Gov. Sam Brownback and the Kansas Legislature approved a new

tax law that exempts Kansas income taxes on LLCs and other pass-through businesses. In total, about 334,000 Kansas business are receiving the tax break. While the practice is legal, it has been the subject of some disagreement. Self is generally considered the highest paid state

employee in Kansas, although his compensation is paid with private dollars. KU, of course, is a public institution that relies on tax dollars for a portion of its funding. “I like Bill Self,” Kansas Senate Minority Leader Journal-World File Photo

Fugitive arrested after large search By Conrad Swanson Twitter: @Conrad_Swanson

A fugitive wanted on suspicion of drug offenses was arrested Tuesday afternoon after a large-scale police search in eastern Lawrence, which briefly led to a Lawrence middle school being put on lockdown status. Jeremy Cline, 25, of Lawrence, was arrested around 12:30 p.m. near the intersection of 16th Street and Haskell Avenue, said Lawrence Police Sgt. Amy Rhoads. He was wanted on several felony and misdemeanor warrants stemming from alleged drug activity and criminal trespassing. At 10:24 a.m., a patrol officer spotted and stopped Cline around the intersection of 16th and Massachusetts streets, Rhoads said. “He provided false information about his identity, and while the officer was trying to confirm his identity, he fled on foot,” Rhoads said. In an attempt to find Cline, officers stationed themselves between the 1500 and 1700 blocks of Massachusetts and New Hampshire streets. In addition, police contacted administrators at

The fugitive, Jeremy Cline, was later arrested near the intersection of 16th Street and Haskell Avenue. Liberty Memorial Central Middle School, 1400 Massachusetts St., who then placed the school on lockdown as a precautionary measure, said Julie Boyle, Lawrence school district spokeswoman. Unable to find Cline, police left their positions, and the school’s lockdown was lifted

looking for Cline. “But what I can tell you is that we’ve had a couple incidents with him in the last week that have resulted in him fleeing on foot or in a vehicle,” she said. — Reporter Conrad Swanson can be reached at cswanson@ljworld.com or 832-7144.

Judge: Kansas can’t require citizenship proof to vote Wichita (ap) — A judge said Tuesday that Kansas can’t require people to show proof of U.S. citizenship when registering to vote for federal elections at motor vehicle offices. U.S. District Judge Julie Robinson ruled that the state’s proof-of-citizenship requirements likely violate a provision

in the National Voter Registration Act that requires only “minimal information” to determine a voter’s eligibility. She ordered Kansas to register thousands of voters whose paperwork is on hold because they did not comply with the requirement.

Thirteen Lawrence employers — including restaurants in the Eldridge and Oread hotels — owe more than $112,000 in back wages to 130 local workers, according to the U.S. Department of Labor. In 2014, the department began an initiative to enforce fair labor laws in Midwestern college towns and resorts, spokesman Scott Allen said. “We physically have people going into the establishments and talking to the employers and employees and requesting pay records and looking at past pay records making sure that these workers are being paid properly,” he said. “We’re trying to alleviate, if you will, the wage gap that’s going on within the hospitality industry.” The following establishments constitute the department’s “first wave” of investigations in Lawrence, Allen said: l The Bird Dog Bar (in the Oread hotel), 1200 Oread Ave.

But she put her preliminary injunction on hold until May 31 to give the state a chance to appeal. The state immediately said it would appeal. Unless a higher court halts Robinson’s order before the end of the month, it will take effect then, clearing the way for those residents to cast a ballot in the upcoming federal elections. Robinson wrote that “even if instances of noncitizens voting cause indirect voter disenfranchisement by diluting the votes of citizens, such instances pale in comparison to the number of qualified citizens who have been disenfranchised by this law.” The evidence shows only three instances in Kansas where noncitizens voted in a federal election between 1995 and 2013, and about 14 noncitizens attempted to register during that time. The court noted the “magnitude of harm” caused by 18,372 applicants at motor vehicle offices who were denied registration due to the state’s proof-of-citizenship law. Although the registrations of more than 32,000 Kansans were in limbo as of last September, the injunction only applies to those people who registered at motor vehicle offices — a voter registration process that was established by the federal law popularly known as the “motor-voter law.” Early voting for the state’s August primary begins on July 13, the judge noted. Robinson wrote that the injunction was necessary because it was unlikely that the case would be decided at trial before the elections. The American Civil Liberties Union, which filed the lawsuit on behalf

Anthony Hensley, of Topeka, told KCUR. “He’s a great coach. KU people, obviously, like him very much. But it’s bad policy when you’ve got the highest paid state employee in the state not paying any income taxes into the state of Kansas.” In response, KU officials differentiated between employees of the university and employees of Kansas Athletics Inc., a not-for-profit corporation affiliated with KU. Self is one of three KU coaches partially compensated through an LLC, university spokesman Joe Monaco said. He said head football coach David Beaty and women’s basketball coach Brandon Schneider have similar arrangements. All KU coaches are employed by and paid from operating revenue of

of voters, said the ruling means thousands of people will be able to vote in the 2016 elections, and “sends a signal” to other states that may be considering these kinds of registration requirements. The federal “motor-voter law” establishes various registration methods, and this lawsuit was brought under a provision of that law that allowed people to register to vote when getting their driver’s licenses. The ACLU argued Congress intended for motorvoter registration to involve the “least possible barriers” to allow citizens to vote in federal elections. Robinson agreed eligibility could be determined by attesting under penalty of perjury that the registrant was a U.S. citizen. Federal law does not prohibit states from requiring more information to determine eligibility to vote in state elections, and Kansas has a dual registration system that bars people who do not provide proof of citizenship from voting in local and state elections. That two-tier process has been challenged under state law, and a state judge held earlier this year in that case that Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach lacked legal authority under state law to keep federal registrants from voting in Kansas elections. Kobach’s request asking the state judge in that case to reconsider is pending. Kobach said he plans to appeal Robinson’s ruling, saying counties would have to distinguish between people who register to vote at driver’s license offices and other prospective voters. Also, he said, the state could still require proof-of-citizenship to vote in state and local elections, making the registration system more complex. “The court’s order would be a nightmare to administer,” Kobach said.

Kansas Athletics, Monaco said. He said paying some of coaches’ compensation to LLCs was not unusual among peers. “Generally speaking, this is done in light of the tremendous amount of educational, public relations, and promotional duties those coaches are assigned by the athletics director that fall outside their normal coaching responsibilities,” Monaco said. “This is common practice nationally among universities and their football and basketball coaches.” Self formed his LLC — called BCLT II LLC — long before Brownback and the Legislature approved the tax cuts. According to documents on file with the Kansas Secretary of State’s office, BCLT II LLC was organized in 2000 in Illinois, when Self was coach at University of Illinois, and registered in Kansas in 2003, the year he was named head coach at KU. The tax breaks Self has received from the change in the law, though, have

Funds for Planned Parenthood won’t be cut off until July

District Judge Julie Robinson approved. “This is a new case for me, with respect to the litigation,” Dernovish said. Federal courts have blocked attempts to cut off Medicaid funding for Planned Parenthood in other states, including Arkansas, Arizona, Indiana, Louisiana and Utah. Medicaid provides health coverage for the poor, elderly and disabled. The Kansas Department of Health and Environment initially told Planned Parenthood of Kansas and Mid-Missouri that it would terminate its Medicaid funding on May 10, but delayed the action until May 24, a second time until June 7, and now for an additional month. The Planned Parenthood affiliate for the St. Louis region also is involved in the lawsuit because it treats a few Medicaid patients from Kansas in a Joplin, Mo., clinic. Diana Salgado, an attor-

ney with Planned Parenthood Federation of America, sought an injunction blocking the state from cutting off funding until the lawsuit is heard. She said “there is this looming cloud” over the Planned Parenthood affiliates without such an order. “There’s clearly no harm to the state,” she said of temporarily blocking the cutoff. Robinson could issue an injunction at the next hearing, now set for June 7 instead of May 24. Republican Gov. Sam Brownback is a strong abortion opponent and declared in his annual State of the State address in January that Kansas would move against Planned Parenthood. The health department later cited a dispute over a December inspection of a Planned Parenthood clinic in Overland Park that was later resolved, as well as allegations lodged against affiliates in Oklahoma and Texas.

rant and hotel workers, Allen said. Violations found at Lawrence employers include: l Paying employees fixed salaries without regard to how many hours they worked, leading to overtime violations when they worked more than 40 hours in a week. l Failing to combine hours that employees worked at multiple job sites for the same employer, leading to overtime violations when total hours exceeded 40 per week. l Deducting the cost of uniforms from workers’ pay, which reduced workers’ effective hourly wages to below the federal minimum wage. l Improperly calculating overtime for tipped employees by paying time and one-half the cash wage of $2.13 per hour, rather than basing overtime on the full minimum wage as the law requires. l Failing to pay for all the hours employees work. l Requiring servers to work only for tips, and

failing to show them on the payroll as employees. l Failing to maintain accurate records of employees’ wages and hours worked. So far, the majority of the 14 employers have either paid the back wages in full or have agreed to pay the owed employees, Allen said. They received no penalties for the initial violations, he explained. “But if we go back into the establishment again and we find repeat violations of the same type, they could face civil money penalties,” he said. Those penalties could “reach into the thousands,” he said. Department employees will continue to investigate Lawrence employers, making sure they understand and follow the laws, Allen said. “These are things that the employer absolutely should know about,” he said. “They’re in the business and they should and must understand the wage laws.”

been significant. Self earns a base salary of $230,000 per year, according to a contract extension he and KU agreed upon in 2012. In addition, Kansas Athletics pays Self’s LLC a minimum of $2.75 million per year for “professional services” rendered by the coach, according to the contract. Those services may include “educational, public relations and promotional duties” as assigned by the athletics director. The payments began in 2012 and are set to continue through 2022, under the contract. Before Brownback signed the tax cuts into law, the top tax bracket was 6.45 percent. At that rate, Self would have owed up to $177,375 annually in Kansas income taxes. Even under the current reduced top rate of 4.6 percent, he’d have owed up to $126,500, according to KCUR. Beaty receives a salary of $225,000 a year and “not less than” $575,000

annually through his LLC, DB Sports LLC, for “multimedia activities and services,” according to KCUR. Records with the Kansas Secretary of State’s office show DB Sports LLC was formed in March 2015, days before Beaty signed his multimedia services agreement with KU. Information about Schneider’s LLC was not readily available Tuesday, as his name is not listed as a resident agent of any company in the Secretary of State’s business entity database. The KCUR report noted that Kansas State University football coach Bill Snyder gets paid $1.22 million through a separate corporation, SSM Inc. But it was unclear, the report said, whether that portion of Snyder’s pay is subject to Kansas income tax. Wichita State University men’s basketball head coach Gregg Marshall and K-State men’s basketball coach Bruce Weber earn

$3 million and $1.9 million per year, respectively, but neither gets paid additional money through an LLC or pass-through business and presumably pay state income taxes on their salaries, according to KCUR’s report. Some lawmakers said the information didn’t change their opinion about the value of the tax law changes. “The overall tax strategy is to lower taxes and +4 cents, $4.58 have a way to stimulate the economy,” Rep.

Topeka — Kansas will not cut off Medicaid funding for Planned Parenthood until July 7 in what marks the third delay in two weeks as the state works to prepare for a lawsuit over its action against the abortion provider. Planned Parenthood sued Kansas earlier this month over the state’s decision to end Medicaid funding starting on May 10 — a cutoff date that the state has repeatedly moved back so that attorneys and the judge could prepare for the first hearing in the federal lawsuit. During a telephone conference Tuesday, health department attorney Darian Dernovish told the judge the agency needs yet more time because outside attorneys are withdrawing and he will now handle the lawsuit. Dernovish suggested delaying the cutoff again — a move that U.S.

Brownback vetoes tax appeal reform bill By Peter Hancock Twitter: @LJWpqhancock

Topeka — Gov. Sam Brownback vetoed a bill Tuesday that included provisions prompted by a $50 million income tax dispute between the Department of Revenue and retired businessman Gene Bicknell. The bill would have clarified the process by which taxpayers could appeal their disputes from the Kansas Board of Tax

Appeals, an administrative body within the Revenue Department, to a Kansas district court, which hears the dispute as an entirely new case. That provision was strongly supported by Bicknell, the retired former owner of Pittsburg-based National Pizza Co. He is currently embroiled in a dispute with the Department of Revenue over his 2005 and 2006 income taxes. But Brownback wanted to

repeal that portion of current laws so that individuals could take property tax disputes to district court, but not disputes over income taxes or other forms of taxes. During conference committee negotiations, Brownback’s proposal was attached to another bill dealing primarily with property tax issues. But when it reached the floor of the Senate, it met with stiff opposition. It was then sent back to the

conference committee, which stripped out Brownback’s proposal. “All Kansas taxpayers should have a fair and impartial system of justice,” Brownback said in his veto message. “Tax obligations should be contested before the Board of Tax Appeals and not by seeking special treatment through the legislative process.” The bill would not directly affect Bicknell’s tax dispute ei-

ther way because it is currently being reviewed by the Kansas Supreme Court. Before the change allowing de novo reviews to district courts was enacted, rulings of the Board of Tax Appeals were taken to the Kansas Court of Appeals, where the burden of proof was on the taxpayer to show that the board’s decision was in error. — Statehouse reporter Peter Hancock can be reached at 354-4222 or phancock@ljworld.com.

All Kan. public schools reaccredited, but standards set to change By Peter Hancock phancock@ljworld.com

Topeka — The Kansas State Board of Education gave a blanket renewal of the accreditation status of every public school in Kansas, as well as every private school that participates in the program, regardless of how their students performed on statewide reading and math tests last year. It was the fourth consecutive year the board has automatically renewed those accreditations. The first of those had to do with the state transitioning to new curriculum standards known as the Common Core, also known as the Kansas College and Career Ready Standards. There were also issues with the new standardized tests that go along with those standards, the first year of which, in 2014, failed to produce reliable results because of technical issues in the Web-

Incentives CONTINUED FROM PAGE 3A

The board was asked to forward city commissioners their recommendations on the changes, but — after an hour of listing problems with the new policies — instead decided to hold more meetings on the issue. “I think there’s laudable goals, but work needs to be done on this document,” said board member Aron Cromwell. “I think some more time would be required to actually craft some language. … We’re not talking about a couple of lines; there’s a number of things here that need work.” Cromwell will chair a five-person committee that will meet twice to discuss how the proposed changes should be revised. The full Public Incentives Review Board will then meet to hear the committee’s ideas and vote on its

Board CONTINUED FROM PAGE 3A

The discussion came in response to a letter issued jointly last week by the U.S. Department of Education and Department of Justice, which said transgender students are protected by Title IX regulations that ban sexual harassment and discrimination in public educational institutions. In particular, the letter said schools must treat transgender students consistent with their gender identity in the area of sports and in their use of bathroom facilities. Education Commissioner Randy Watson said schools that violate the policy could be vulnerable to litigation and could possibly lose federal funding. Board member Ken Willard, a Hutchinson Republican, read a lengthy statement saying the federal policy violates the concept of local control and urging the governor and Legislature to take appropriate action, “to protect and defend the Kansas Depart-

based testing system. But this year, the accreditations were renewed because the state is expecting to shift to a new accreditation model, one that puts less emphasis on yearly test scores and more emphasis on a wider range of factors such as how well students perform in college or whether they find jobs after graduation. It’s a change the state board has been working toward since 2011, shortly after it adopted the Common Core standards, and one that could radically change the way public school districts, and even some private school systems, do business. “We want schools focused on where we’re headed, and not on an old accreditation system that based everything on a test score,” said Deputy Education Commissioner Brad Neuenswander. The current system, which is based largely on test scores, is commonly

known as Quality Performance Accreditation, or QPA. It was put into state law in 1992 as part of the same bill that also shifted responsibility of funding schools to the state, through a uniform perpupil funding formula. QPA was part of a new movement in education at the time known as “outcomes-based education,” a system that graded schools and held them accountable for the results they produced, rather than the volume and quality of resources they put into educational programs. The new model the state board is considering, and which they will officially vote on next month, continues the focus on educational outcomes, but it also makes some significant changes. Perhaps the biggest change, if the final plan is approved next month, is that the state will no longer accredit individual school buildings. Instead, it will

look at entire districts to determine whether, overall, they are making improvement across a wide range of measurements. The second major change is that districts will no longer have their accreditation status reviewed each year. Instead, they will run on five-year cycles, at the end of which the state board will look to see whether they’ve made progress in achieving the goals they set out for themselves at the beginning of that cycle. And the standards by which districts will be graded will include a combination of both outcomes and inputs, a system the Department of Education refers to as the Five R’s. Those include: l Relationships, including those between the district and its staff, students, families and surrounding community. l Relevance of the district’s curriculum, instruction and technology.

l A responsive culture that promotes leadership, early childhood education, wellness and a positive school climate. l Rigor of the district’s curriculum, including career and technical education, professional learning, resources and use of data. l And results, measured not only by test scores but also factors such as graduation rates and the success of its high school graduates. At the beginning of each five-year cycle, Neuenswander said, districts will develop plans based on three of those sets of standards, one of which must be the results category. But districts will have flexibility in choosing the other two categories, based on where they believe they need the most improvement. Those five-year plans also will have to be developed with input from stakeholders in the community, including parents,

families and the business community, he said. The state board is scheduled to take final action on the new accreditation model when it meets June 14-15. But some board members said Tuesday they still have concerns about the plan. Steve Roberts, an Overland Park Republican, said he would be more inclined to vote for it if “rigor” was also mandated. And Ken Willard, a Hutchinson Republican, said he wants to see more clarity about what is really expected of schools. “I think it’s important for everybody to know what it takes to not be accredited,” he said. If the state board approves the new model next month, the Department of Education will begin the year-long process of drafting new regulations to put it into effect on July 1, 2017.

recommendations to the City Commission. Mayor Mike Amyx said he wants the City Commission to have all of the input and debate the topic by the end of 2017 budget discussions. The commission will pass a budget in August. Some changes discussed Tuesday were: capping tax rebates at 50 percent over 10 years; requiring residential developments receiving incentives to set aside units for lowincome households; and instituting an analysis to see whether applicants for industrial revenue bonds could complete their projects without them. About the 50 percent, 10-year cap on tax abatements, which go to those projects qualifying for the National Revitalization Act, Cromwell said: “When I first heard about that particular policy, I really was pretty dumbfounded.” Typically, Economic Development Director Britt Crum-Cano would

analyze a project up for an NRA, and the Public Incentives Review Board would look at the findings and vote to recommend a certain tax rebate percentage. “We don’t know what possible wonderful project might come down the line, if there will be a chance to revitalize a part of our town that needs (to be) revitalized,” Cromwell said. “And now a policy is in place where we’re not going to even look at it.” Amyx said he worried that naming a percentage outright would limit the city’s negotiation power. City Manager Tom Markus told the board the 50 percent, 10-year maximum should maybe be an “aspirational goal.” However, if a project were to meet the new affordable housing requirement, developers should receive a higher rebate, he said. Some board members worried the affordable housing provision would stop developers from moving forward with projects.

The new policy would require any residential development receiving public assistance to offer some units for households making 80 percent of the area’s median income. For developments with four to 49 units, the requirement would be 10 percent of units. Developments with 50 or more units would have to provide at least 35 percent of them to lowincome households. The units would have to be maintained as low-income for at least 15 years. City Attorney Toni Wheeler has said that, at first look, new legislation limiting rent control would not affect this provision. Wheeler said she’d provide more analysis on the bill if it’s signed by Gov. Sam Brownback. “That does not sound flexible to me,” board member Linda Jalenak said of the requirement. “I think we’re shooting ourselves in the foot. I understand the need, but I’m not sure this will accomplish the goal if people just don’t

build anything.” Markus conceded 35 percent was “pushing the limit pretty good.” Cromwell suggested affordable housing be an opt-in measure to receive more incentives and not required of every development. Markus said something could be worked into the policies to give developers the option of either including affordable housing or making a payment to the affordable housing trust fund. The affordable housing provision would start Lawrence down the path of easing tension between the development community and social service organizations, Markus said. “I’m a proponent of this,” he said. “It creates affordable housing opportunities and a dialogue in the city to help mend this unnecessary tension between how we grow the economy and how we improve the city’s social justice issues.” In response, Cromwell

said: “I don’t see this document as mending that. I see this document here as increasing that divide.” Lastly, board member Bradley Burnside questioned the requirement for a “but-for” analysis for projects seeking industrial revenue bonds. Cromwell said it would “disqualify small applicants” who couldn’t afford to pay for an analysis. Douglas County commissioners are scheduled to discuss the proposed changes at their regular meeting at 6 p.m. today at the County Courthouse, 1100 Massachusetts St. The Joint Economic Development Council, which first reviewed the changes earlier this month, is planning another meeting June 6 to craft a more formal response to city commissioners. The council meets at 3 p.m. at the Lawrence Chamber of Commerce, 646 Vermont St.

ment of Education, Kansas schools, their students and patrons from this unprecedented overreach of federal executive authority.” If the state accepts the federal policy, Willard said, “it could be the veritable straw that broke the camel’s back and result in the destruction of traditional American public schools.” Word of Willard’s statement spread quickly around the state. “That was the ranting of a drama queen,” said Tom Witt, executive director of Equality Kansas, which advocates for LGBT rights. “The destruction of public schools in Kansas? Come on.” Within the board, though, there was strong sympathy for making a statement in favor of local control. But some were leery about how it would be viewed politically. “My biggest fear, if this passes, is that the Legislature is going to interpret it (as meaning) we support the bill they tried to pass last year, which I don’t agree with,” said board member Sally Cauble, R-Dodge City. She was referring to a so-called “religious free-

dom” bill last year that would have allowed individuals and businesses to refuse to recognize or take part in same-sex marriages or relationships, if they objected based on deeply held religious beliefs. In addition, though, bills were introduced in the 2016 session, known as “transgender bathroom” bills, that would have required students in public schools to use the restrooms corresponding to the gender on their birth certificates. It also would have allowed individuals to collect as much as $2,500 in civil penalties if they witnessed a person of one gender using a bathroom assigned to another gender. Cauble offered a motion to table Willard’s proposal until the board’s next monthly meeting in June, which she said would give staff at the Department of Education time to review the federal guidelines and offer the board a legal opinion about what it means for the state board, as well as local boards of education. But board chairman Jim McNiece, a Wichita Republican, said even that could have political

consequences. “Regrettably, the press and the people who are just opposed to just the transgender issue will take a vote to delay as, ‘Well, you support them,’” he said. “I think it’s naive to believe it’s not going to be taken in a political context and used to whatever level a person wants on either side of the issue. And we as a society are debating this right now.” McNiece, a former school principal and coach, said he dealt with issues regarding transgender students several times in his career. “I talked to other teachers and coaches and folks in the building, and solved it at the local level,” he said. “I found out that it actually takes place a lot more than people realize. “The other thing I found out is just how miserable these kids are,” he said. “They’re bullied and tormented, and that’s part of it as well.” Language in the Lawrence school board policy manual makes clear that transgender students are protected from such treatment under federal law. The district’s policy states that discrimination and ha-

rassment against any individual on the basis of race, religion, sexual orientation and gender identity is prohibited. The district also has several schools with single-occupancy, unisex bathrooms that are available for any student who prefers more privacy. The Kansas State High School Activities Association has a long-standing policy regarding transgender students who participate in sports. It states, among other things, that transgender students may participate in sports based on the gender with which they identify, but that the gender identity must be “bona fide” and cannot be made for the purpose of gaining a competitive advantage. It also recommends, but does not require, that schools review medical documents to support a transgender student’s claim, including “length and duration of hormonal treatments, sexual reassignment surgery, psychological counseling, medical records, etc.” The new federal policy, however, specifically prohibits schools from requiring medical documentation to verify a transgender

student’s sexual identity. Education Commissioner Watson told the board there was no urgency to respond quickly because the 2015-2016 school year is now over and the 2016 legislative session has ended. Willard insisted his motion was intended only to protect the right of the state and local school districts to resolve transgender issues locally, and he resisted efforts to delay a vote on his motion calling on the governor and Legislature to take action. On a 6-4 vote, the board chose to table that motion, deferring it until its next monthly meeting in June. Cauble and McNiece both voted to delay the vote, as did board members Carolyn Campbell, Janet Waugh, Kathy Busch and Jim Porter. Willard, along with board members John Bacon, Steve Roberts and Deena Horst, voted against the delay. McNiece said the item will be considered again when the board meets June 14 and 15.

LAWRENCE CITY COMMISSION

Soden opposes development west of SLT By Nikki Wentling Twitter: @nikkiwentling

Vice Mayor Leslie Soden on Tuesday signaled her disapproval of a request to annex nearly 160 acres west of Lawrence for a proposed apartment and residential development. She made her position known during a City Commission meeting when the annexation request appeared on the agenda for the first time. Commissioners were being asked to formally accept the application and send it to the LawrenceDouglas County Planning Commission to start the process of reviewing it. Soden said her discomfort about the annexation came from the kickoff of 2017 budget talks, during which City Manager Tom Markus has said there must be cutbacks in spending. “I’m not comfortable

with entertaining the idea,” Soden said. “We’re talking about reducing services, so the idea of expanding them… I feel like the City Commission has goals and priorities, and I’d rather be working on those.” The proposed development, dubbed Clinton Farms, would be the first major development west of the South Lawrence Trafficway. Plans call for 2,000 apartment units near the intersection of the SLT and North 1500 Road, with 600 singlefamily homes proposed for future phases. An ownership group led by Douglas County landowner Don Hazlett is behind the idea. The city’s West of K-10 Plan shows the area as being the future site of high- and medium-density residential uses. The property is not currently served by city water or sewer service. In projects such as

Clinton Farms, developers pay for traditional infrastructure costs. The city pays when the infrastructure must accommodate more users, such as the cost of making a residential street into a thoroughfare or a waterline into a large water main. In January, city commissioners rejected plans for a new shopping center in south Lawrence, saying the city was not yet prepared to push its boundaries south of the SLT. Commissioners voted 4-1 Tuesday to send the annexation request to the Planning Commission, which will study it and vote on recommendations for the annexation, as well as a request to rezone the tracts that would house apartments. The issue will come back to the City Commission for a final decision. In other business, commissioners: l Voted unanimously

to award a bid for the 19th Street and Ousdahl Road reconstruction project to R.D. Johnson Excavating Co. for $685,629. The 19th and Ousdahl intersection will become the main entrance to Kansas University’s under-construction Central District. With Tuesday’s approval, the area will soon be closed to traffic and will remain closed until KU classes resume in August. l Approved the addition of a crossing guard to the intersection of Sixth Street and Schwarz Road starting in the 201617 school year. — City Hall reporter Nikki Wentling can be reached at 832-7144 or nwentling@ljworld.com.

Justice council begins search for staff By Elvyn Jones Twitter: @ElvynJ

The Douglas County Criminal Justice Coordinating Council began the process Tuesday of searching for and hiring staff and received an update on a pilot program that could reduce the Douglas County Jail’s population. In the Coordinating Council’s third meeting since its formation in March, members agreed with one of its advisers on the need to find a coordinator for the group. “The sooner you find a coordinator, the better off you will be,” said Margaret Severson, a professor in the Kansas University of School of Social Welfare. Douglas County Commissioner and Coordi-

nating Council chairman Mike Gaughan appointed a subcommittee of members who will work with Douglas County Manager Craig Weinaug on the search. Those members were Bob Tryanski, Lawrence Municipal Judge Scott Miller, retired Lawrence Police Department sergeant Susan Hadl, Bert Nash Community Mental Health executive director Dave Johnson and Douglas County Sheriff Ken McGovern. It was the first meeting of the Coordinating Council since members toured the Douglas County Jail. Council member Edith Guffey said she found the jail clean but wondered why those eligible for work release programs continued to be incarcer-

ated. It costs the county $70 a day to incarcerate an inmate and $17 a day to monitor someone through house arrest, she noted. It did seem contradictory to incarcerate someone responsible enough to maintain a full-time job, but those convicted of offenses with mandatory minimum sentences had to serve the required time, said Douglas County District Attorney Charles Branson. The work release program did help such inmates keep or find jobs, which would help prevent future troubles with law enforcement, he said. The discussion prompted Mike Brouwer, Douglas County Corrections re-entry director, to reveal to the council a sheriff’s office elec-

I really like “Jeanette,” and she has introduced me to a lot of other women who have become my friends. I love to go to lunch, to musicals and on day trips with my female friends. The problem is, Jeanette likes to go out at night to dinner, concerts, etc. I do not have good nighttime vision and am not comfortable driving past sundown.

U.S. diplomats unfairly targeted

EDITORIALS

Loophole closed A new law closes a loophole that allowed officials to block access to official business communications conducted through private cellphone and email accounts.

he Kansas Legislature has drawn considerable criticism for some of its actions and inactions during this year’s session, but one bill, which was signed by Gov. Sam Brownback last week, is deserving of praise. That law addresses an important gap in the Kansas Open Records Act involving public officials’ use of personal cellphones or email accounts to discuss public business. Starting July 1, those communications will be subject to public disclosure under the KORA. This problem initially came to light in January 2015, when state Budget Director Shawn Sullivan used a private email account to send two prominent Republican lobbyists an advance copy of the governor’s budget proposals for the coming year. When a Wichita newspaper sought copies of those emails, Attorney General Derek Schmidt issued an opinion stating that because the emails were sent through a private account, they were not subject to the Open Records Act. Schmidt subsequently helped introduce legislation to correct the problem and said the new law will move the Open Records Act “into the 21st Century” and is written broadly enough to cover new technology that will continue to be developed. The new law won’t apply to officials’ personal communications and includes many exceptions that government agencies can invoke to block release of certain materials, such as personnel records. Nonetheless, closing the loophole is an important step toward open government in Kansas. Access to meetings and communications about public business is essential to the public’s ability to monitor government actions and assess whether officials are acting in the best interests of their constituents. The new law benefits the state by helping ensure that access.

Washington — On Oct. 21, 2014, Robin Raphel, a former assistant secretary of state, got an urgent call from her daughter, who said that something had triggered the burglar alarm at home. When Raphel arrived, she found FBI agents searching through her files and other personal materials. Raphel frantically telephoned her office at the State Department to ask what was happening; colleagues said they had been instructed not to speak with her. Agents were already rifling her desk at State, and putting up yellow tape to warn off workmates. Raphel’s voice still shakes with emotion as she recalls that afternoon. The FBI search warrant said she was being investigated under 18 U.S. Code Section 793(e), a criminal statute that covers illegal gathering or transmission of national-security information and is used in espionage cases. The warrant offered no other details. Justice Department officials privately told attorneys and journalists that they had probable cause, based on intelligence intercepts and other sources, to believe that Raphel, one of the government’s leading experts on South Asia, had been spying for Pakistan. They also revealed that they had found classified documents in the search of Raphel’s home. The government’s case collapsed in March, when the Justice Department informed Raphel’s attorneys it wouldn’t prosecute her, either for espionage or improper retention of the documents. That seems a wise exercise of judgment — but

“

Diplomats often go last in our nationalsecurity parade. People cheer at ballparks when they see soldiers and sailors. … But a diplomat’s reward for years in danger sometimes seems to be a congressional or FBI investigation for security lapses. That’s wrong.” it came way too late. The case leaves behind some disturbing questions about how a diplomat with nearly 40 years’ experience became the focus of a careershattering investigation — apparently without anyone seeking clarification from knowledgeable State Department officials about her assignment to open alternative channels to repair the badly strained relationship with Pakistan. “If the Bureau had talked to senior people at State who were knowledgeable about her work, I believe they would never have launched this investigation,” argues Jeff Smith, a former CIA general counsel who was one of Raphel’s attorneys.

The threat that government surveillance and nationalsecurity investigations pose for private citizens has been hotly debated for the past decade. Less understood is the wrongful damage done to government officials themselves when they fall into the dragnet. Raphel’s experience is a case study in what can happen when the government launches a toxic investigation without adequate due diligence. “The FBI’s investigation of me was flawed from the beginning because they had a fundamental misunderstanding of what diplomats do,” Raphel explained to me. “I was never told what triggered the investigation, but I am convinced it was a misreading of raw intelligence by persons who simply did not understand the context.” Three of Raphel’s supervisors at State’s office of the Special Representative for Afghanistan and Pakistan, known as SRAP, explained Raphel’s mission when she became a special adviser in 2011 after leaving a post in Islamabad overseeing U.S. assistance there. At that time, the relationship between Washington and Islamabad was poisonous, with deep mistrust among intelligence and military officials. Raphel’s assignment was to “augment existing channels” at the embassy by talking to Pakistani friends and contacts, explained one supervisor. Raphel, with decades of experience dealing with Pakistan, added an extra dimension. A second supervisor said her mission was to “double track” the messages being passed by the embas-

sy. A third recalled that in 2011 and 2012, “military and intelligence channels were closed. It was the other channels that kept the relationship on life support and helped nurture it back.” Dan Feldman, Raphel’s last boss at SRAP, says the case shows that other agencies need to better understand diplomacy: “I wish there had been better and more coordinated knowledge about the nature and importance of diplomatic channels, and what it entails for diplomats to be effective in pursuing critical national security priorities.” The case had a “chilling effect” on other diplomats who feared they might be next, a half-dozen State Department officials told me. But Raphel’s colleagues stood behind her, even when the investigation was still active. Beth Jones, another former assistant secretary of state, organized a legal defense fund last summer. The fund raised nearly $90,000 from 96 colleagues and friends, many of whom, recalls Jones, voiced the fear: “There but for the grace of God go I.” Diplomats often go last in our national-security parade. People cheer at ballparks when they see soldiers and sailors. They stand in line to watch movies about snipers and special-forces operators. But a diplomat’s reward for years in danger sometimes seems to be a congressional or FBI investigation for security lapses. That’s wrong. Raphel and many hundreds of colleagues deserve better support. — David Ignatius is a columnist for Washington Post Writers Group.

From the Lawrence Daily JournalWorld for May 18, 1916: “Horace Tuttle, quarter masyears ter sergeant of the First Inago fantry, became dangerously IN 1916 ill yesterday afternoon as the result of poisoning from a spray which he had been using on his fruit trees in his orchard near Vinland. He was immediately taken to Dr. Yates at Vinland by his father. After working all night the doctor was able to counteract the effects of the poison. Mr. Tuttle was thought to be out of danger today. The only theory for the poisoning which Mr. Tuttle can advance is a bruised finger which he put to his lips to stop the bleeding. The spray contained a high per cent of arsenic.”

U.S. politics hits new, depressing low “If you won’t stand for something, you will fall for anything.” — quote attributed to numerous sources Historically, when our nation has transitioned from one way of life to another, there has usually been some optimism about what was to come. That was true at the time of the American Revolution and it was true as we moved from an agrarian society toward the Industrial Revolution in the mid-18th through mid-19th centuries. Even during World War II, the song “White Cliffs of Dover” with its lyric “There’ll be love and laughter and peace ever after. Tomorrow, when the world is free,” looked forward to a better day. It didn’t quite turn out that way, as wars persist, but optimism kept us going with the hope that a new and better world was about to dawn. Today we are gripped not by optimism but by a deep pessimism, even cynicism, that permeates virtually every layer of our culture. According to a Real Clear Politics Poll, more than 66 percent of those surveyed think this country is headed in the wrong direction, yet like a man who is lost but refuses

Are these two candidates a reflection of our cynical and increasingly secular culture? They must be, otherwise so many voters would not have propelled them to the top of their respective parties.”

to ask for directions, we keep barreling full steam ahead. While politics has always been a rhetorical combat sport, the insults thrown by Donald Trump and his supporters have taken political discourse — if it can even be called that — to a new and depressing low. Such language keeps us from solving, or even discussing, the real problems this country faces. A book by an “anonymous

congressman,” titled “Confessions of Congressman X,” is scheduled for publication on May 24, according to Daily Mail.com. In it, the writer, who is reportedly a man and a Democrat, mocks the country he supposedly serves as a “nation of naive, self-absorbed sheep.” He says he and most of his colleagues never read the bills they vote on and spend most of their time raising money. “My main job,” he writes, “is to keep my job, to get re-elected. It takes precedence over everything.” Given the behavior and history of so many members of Congress, who doubts his claim? It was thought once that our leaders should possess good character. In this election, however, it appears voters will be forced to choose for president — if they vote at all — between a boastful, superficial, narcissistic, misogynist and a corrupt, entitled, shady, lying, unaccomplished woman who has ignored her husband’s affairs in the pursuit of power. Are these two candidates a reflection of our cynical and increasingly secular culture? They must be, otherwise so many voters would

not have propelled them to the top of their respective parties. If we are willing to settle for less than the best, we can be sure that less is exactly what we will get. Another character quality that is in decline is modesty. A new Calvin Klein ad features an “upskirt” photo of a young woman’s underwear. Victoria’s Secret catalogs and shopping mall displays, visible to children, feature barely clad women with “come hither” stares. Some of the sexiest films ever made were produced during Hollywood’s “Golden Age” when women and men kept on most of their clothes. Scriptwriters put words in the mouths of actresses that “would make a sailor blush,” as the old saying goes. Yet, we are supposed to regard this as progress and equality. Do I sound “old-fashioned”? There is something to be said about old things. Some things endure because they have proven to work for the individual and for society at large. Nations built to last generally do; nations allowed to rot from within do just that. — Cal Thomas is a columnist for Tribune Content Agency.

Hy-Vee’s History

& Our Community

With a goal to provide “good merchandise, appreciative service and low prices,” Charles Hyde and David Vredenburg opened a small store in Beaconsfield, Iowa, in 1930. Since it’s founding in 1930, Hy-Vee has expanded to 240 autonomously operated stores. Each Hy-Vee store is in charge of choosing their own inventories and setting their own prices. Store directors were then, and still are today, encouraged to test new ideas on a local level.

Hy-Vee’s autonomy is what has allowed your Lawrence Hy-Vee stores to provide more than $

500,000 in donations and sponshorships to the Lawrence community over the past year. We are proud to support the following organizations and look forward to continuing to support the Lawrence community through donations and volunteer hours.

Genetic ‘frankenfood’ found not harmful to human health Elizabeth Weise @eweise USA TODAY

SAN FRANCISCO Genetically engineered crops are safe for humans and animals to eat and have not caused increases in cancer, obesity, gastrointestinal illnesses, kidney disease, autism or allergies, according to a National Academies of Sciences report released Tuesday. A committee of more than 50 experts compared disease reports from the United States and Canada — where genetically modified fare has been consumed since the mid-1990s — with reports in the United Kingdom and western Europe, where genetically modified foods are not widely eaten. The analysis found no long-term pattern of increases in specific health problems. The report comes at a time when there is much controversy about the safety of these crops, called GMOs for “for genetically modified organisms,” as well as deemed “frankenfood” by critics. There are many opinions on the farming, packaging and advertising of GMO foods, and those stances have a substantial effect on businesses worldwide. The effect of GMOs on the world’s food supply is enormous: The global food and beverage market was worth more than

$5 trillion in 2014, estimates research group Packaged Facts. Non-GMO products accounted for $550 billion of that. Genetically modified crops can help save producers significant money since those crops are designed to resist weeds and insects that lower yields. Yet, new rules on GMO labeling are costing manufacturers. Food makers are now preparing to comply with a Vermont law that will require GMOs to be labeled beginning July 1.

The number of commercially grown, genetically modified crops worldwide is low, below 12, the National Academies of Sciences says. Yet, the U.S. produces some substantial crops, including cotton and canola. The genetic material of these plants is artificially manipulated to give them characteristics such as pest resistance. Nearly six in 10 Americans were concerned that genetically modified foods posed a health hazard, according to a survey released last year by NPD Group.

WASHINGTON As the summer mosquito season fast approaches, the Senate voted Tuesday to advance a bipartisan compromise that would provide $1.1 billion to help public health officials battle the Zika virus as it begins to threaten the continental USA. Senators voted 68-29 to advance an amendment by Sens. Roy Blunt, R-Mo., and Patty Murray, D-Wash., to provide the emergency funding, which would be used for mosquito control, public education and the development of a vaccine. The amendment is set to be attached to two unrelated spending bills that must be given final approval. “This is a bipartisan first step toward protecting families from this virus,” Murray said on the Senate floor Tuesday. Federal health officials warn that people in the USA will become infected with locally transmitted Zika as temperatures rise and mosquito activity increases. The mosquitoes that carry the disease are already in the country. There have been more than 500 cases of Zika in the continental USA, but all of them have been connected to travel to Latin America or the Caribbean — the areas hardest hit by the disease.

“This is a bipartisan first step toward protecting families.” Sen. Patty Murray, D-Wash.

The Senate compromise would provide $800 million less than the $1.9 billion President Obama has sought since February, but it is more than the House proposes. Republican House leaders introduced legislation Monday that would provide $622 million in Zika funding, which they would pay for in part by using money allocated to fight Ebola. The bill could come to a vote this week. The Obama administration, which is already using nearly $600 million in Ebola funds to fight Zika, threatened Tuesday to veto the House bill. Although the Ebola epidemic in 2013-2015 in West Africa has been controlled, new outbreaks could occur. “The funding provided in (the House bill) is woefully inadequate to support the response our public health experts say is needed,” the White House said in a statement.

Olympic ban possible for Russia track and field team IOC president cites zero tolerance policy A.J. Perez

@byajperez USA TODAY Sports

International Olympic Committee President Thomas Bach did not rule out banning Russia’s track and field federation from the Summer Olympics in an oped piece published Tuesday, adding that the IOC “would react with its record of proven zerotolerance policy” if allegations of widespread doping are true.

Bach’s op-ed for USA TODAY focused on allegations that Russian athletes were involved in a state-sponsored doping scheme in the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi. The IOC has asked the World Anti-Doping Agency to investigate the claims. “Should the investigation prove the allegations true it would represent a shocking new dimension in doping with an, until now, unprecedented level of criminality,” Bach wrote. “There can be no doubt ... that the IOC would react with its record of proven zero-tolerance policy not only with regard to individual athletes, but to all their entourage

within its reach.” He said action could include life-long Olympic bans for any implicated person, financial sanctions and the suspension of entire national federations, similar to the existing ban of Russia’s track and field federation. Bach’s piece was published on the day the IOC announced 31 athletes from the 2008 Beijing Games were flagged for doping when 454 samples were retested. The names of the athletes were not released. Samples from the 2012 London Olympics also are being retested, and the IOC is expected to soon announce the findings from 250

samples that were analyzed. “This decisive action will most likely stop some dozens of doped athletes participating in the Rio Olympic Games,” Bach wrote, referring to retesting samples from the 2008 and 2012 Olympics. Much of the recent allegations center around Russia. Its Federal Security Service allegedly was involved in manipulating samples during the 2014 Sochi Olympics and athletes were encouraged to use performance-enhancing drugs, according to reports. The Department of Justice also is investigating Russia’s alleged doping efforts, The New York Times reported Tuesday.

ISIL loses ground in Iraq, Syria, coalition says Militants’ large-scale offense may be at end Jim Michaels @jimmichaels USA TODAY

The Islamic State has lost 45% of the territory it once held in Iraq and 20% of areas it controlled in Syria, according to new estimates by a U.S.-led coalition combating the extremist group. ANALYSIS Those slow but steady battlefield losses in Iraq are prompting the Islamic State to strike back against civilians with terrorist bombings, the latest killing dozens in Baghdad on Tuesday. The territory seized by Iraqi forces, aided by coalition airstrikes and advisers, is up from 40% announced earlier this year, according to the latest estimates. The percentages are based on areas the militants controlled at their peak strength after they swept into Iraq in 2014. In Syria, the Islamic State’s losses are up from the coalition’s estimates of 10% to 15% of areas it controlled earlier this year. The group’s de facto capital is in Syria, where the Islamic State, other rebel groups and the Syrian government have waged a five-year-long civil war. In recent weeks, U.S.-aided Iraqi forces pushed militants out of towns in western Iraq’s Euphrates River valley as they consolidated gains made last December, when Iraq’s army retook Ramadi. Iraqi forces have begun operations around Mosul, Iraq’s second WASHINGTON

Members of the Saraya al-Salam (Peace Brigades), a group formed by Muqtada al-Sadr, march Tuesday in the city of Najaf. The group is preparing to reinforce government forces in the fight against the Islamic State for control of Fallujah. largest city, in preparation for a major offensive to drive the militants out. Progress has been slower in Syria, where the U.S.-led coalition cobbled together rebel groups to build a ground force capable of taking on the Islamic State. The Iraqi military’s gains coincide with a string of terror bombings in and around Baghdad this year. In just the past week, 200 people were killed, including at

least 69 Tuesday, according to the Associated Press. The Islamic State claimed responsibility for most of those attacks. “These bombings are a reaction to the increasing territorial pressure the Islamic State is coming under,” said Matthew Henman, head of IHS Jane’s Terrorism and Insurgency Centre. The Islamic State distinguished itself from al-Qaeda by fielding troops, capturing cities and creat-

ing a government as part of a plan to establish a caliphate throughout the region. When it swept into Iraq from Syria in 2014, it resembled a conventional military force that operated in large formations and employed heavy weapons. But nearly two years of airstrikes and pressure from Iraqi ground forces have forced the militants to move in smaller groups and retreat from some of the terri-

tory. “Their ability to conduct large-scale offensive operations has primarily stopped,” said Army Maj. Gen. Gary Volesky, a top commander in Iraq. It is not clear yet whether the militants will survive by continuing to launch terror attacks in Baghdad and elsewhere, Henman said. “It may be that this is the group adapting and accepting that it is no longer able to expand and seize more territory,” he said.

IRANIAN SUPREME LEADER WEBSITE VIA EPA

Iran’s Ayatollah Ali Khamenei accuses the U.S. of dragging its feet on Iran’s reintegration into the global economy.

the U.S. over the Supreme Court ruling that approved confiscation of Iranian assets. The cases reflect Iran’s frustration with the pace of integration into the global trade and banking community since some international sanctions were lifted in January. Iran’s supreme leader, Ali Khamenei, last month accused the United States of creating “Iranophobia” to slow economic progress. The compensation bill does not determine a monetary amount for the damages, the Islamic Republic News Agency reports. The CIA has acknowledged directing the 1953 coup, which drove out Iran’s democratically elected prime minister during a bitter dispute over control of oil. Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi remained in power until the Islamic Revolution in 1979, months before the start of the hostage crisis at the U.S. embassy in Tehran. The parliament is seeking compensation for, among other things, 17,000 victims of assassination, the “martyrdom” of 223,600 soldiers in the Iran-Iraq war of the 1980s, and more recently for damages for “blocking, confiscating or seizing of assets belonging to Iranian government, organizations or public and stateowned organizations and officials of Iran.” A series of international boycotts have battered the Iranian economy. Last year, Iran reached an agreement with the United States, Russia, China, United Kingdom, France and Germany to limit its nuclear program to peaceful activities in return for lifting international sanctions. The deal did not end U.S. sanctions on other activities, however, such as Iran’s support for terrorism, developing ballistic missiles and human rights violations.

Democrats battling it out in Kentucky Clinton hoping for shift in momentum in closing contests Joe Gerth

The (Louisville, Ky.) Courier-Journal LOUISVILLE With almost 100% of the precincts reporting, the Democratic presidential primary in Kentucky between Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders was down to the wire Tuesday night. Clinton led Sanders late Tuesday by less than one-half of 1% — 212,205 to 210,424 votes. Clinton claimed victory in a tweet, saying: “We just won Kentucky! Thanks to everyone who turned out. We’re always stronger united.” Sanders and Clinton traded the lead throughout the vote count, which at one point held a margin of just 126 ballots. Both candidates had about half the vote. Clinton was trying to recapture not only her momentum across the nation but also the Clinton family magic that made Bill Clinton the last Democrat to win Kentucky in a presidential race and gave Hillary Clinton a huge victory over Barack Obama in 2008. While a defeat would do little to diminish her delegate lead over Sanders, it would magnify her difficulty in unifying the Democratic Party. Entering Tuesday’s contests, Clinton led Sanders by nearly 300 pledged delegates. When superdelegates — elected officials and party leaders free to support ei-

ther candidate — are factored in, her lead is much larger and brings her to within 150 delegates away of the 2,383 needed to clinch the Democratic nomination, according to the Associated Press. In the final round of state primaries next month, Clinton holds a 10-point lead in California, according to the RealClearPolitics average of polls, where 475 pledged delegates will be at stake.

Race between Clinton and Sanders is the first truly contested Democratic primary in Kentucky since 1988. Kentucky Republicans chose Donald Trump as their nominee in a March 5 caucus. Oregon also held a primary Tuesday. Trump was declared the winner shortly after polls closed at 8 p.m. local time. The Democratic primary was too competitive to call at that time. In Kentucky, 55 Democratic delegates were up for grabs. The state’s Democrats also have five superdelegates, two of which have already pledged their support to Clinton. Two others have not said who they would vote for, and a fifth

superdelegate has not been named. The race between Clinton, a former first lady, secretary of State and senator, and Sanders, a U.S. senator from Vermont, is the first truly contested Democratic primary in Kentucky since the Bluegrass State took part in the 1988 Super Tuesday. Obama barely visited the state in 2008 and had essentially locked up the nomination before Kentucky’s primary. Over the last two weeks this time, Clinton and her husband made numerous stops across the state, drawing small-to-medium size crowds as they crisscrossed the state. Sanders’ largest event was two weeks ago when he drew about 7,000 people to Waterfront Park in Louisville, the same night he won the Indiana primary across the river. It was somewhat reminiscent of the huge crowd that Obama drew to the Kentucky International Convention Center in the days leading up to the 2008 primary. That didn’t help him as Clinton, powered by a stronger organization and multiple campaign stops across the state, carried the state 66% to 30%. Clinton, during a town hall meeting in Columbus, Ohio, said she was “going to put a lot of coal miners and coal companies out of business,” while trying to explain her plan to sink $30 billion into Appalachia to rebuild the economy. Her opponents seized on those words, which appear to have harmed her in central Appalachia. Sanders beat her 51% to 36% in West Virginia.

Millions more Americans to be eligible for overtime pay Some call it overdue while others see businesses skirting the requirement Paul Davidson @Pdavidsonusat USA TODAY

Moving to fatten low- and middle-income paychecks that have languished for years, the Obama administration on Tuesday unveiled a long-awaited rule that will make millions of Americans newly eligible for overtime pay. While some businesses welcome the measure, many say it will simply force them to reshuffle salaries to get around the regulation. Others fear it will mean demoting white-collar workers and altering workplace cultures. The rule, slated to be formally released Wednesday, essentially would double the threshold at which executive, administrative and professional employees are exempt from overtime pay to $47,476 from the current $23,660. That’s expected to make 4.2 million additional workers eligible to receive time-and-a-half wages for each hour they put in beyond 40 a week. Labor Secretary Thomas Perez said the salary threshold originally was intended to exempt highpaid executives but instead has denied overtime to low-level retail supervisors and entry-level office workers who often toil 50 to 70 hours a week. “Too few people are getting the overtime that (federal law) intended,” he told reporters. “It’s simply not right.” Vice President Biden called the

change a critical part of the White House’s goal of “restoring and expanding access to the middle class. The middle class is getting clobbered.” The rule represents the administration’s most prominent initiative to lift middle-class wages. President Obama’s call to raise the federal minimum wage from $7.25 an hour to more than $10 has been stymied by Republicans in Congress. The share of full-time workers who qualify for overtime has fallen from 62% in 1975 to 7% today, according to the administration. The new rule, which would take effect Dec. 1, would allow 35% of workers to qualify. Many companies expect to convert salaried workers to hourly employees who will need to punch a clock and track their hours, hurting morale in some cases. Some will likely maintain the status of salaried employees, but will still have to monitor their hours and net the extra pay for logging more than 40. Others will lift workers’ base pay to the new threshold to avoid paying overtime. Many small businesses can’t absorb the added cost and will instruct employees to work no more than 40 hours a week, bringing on part-time workers to pick up the slack, says Dan Bosch, head of regulatory policy for the National Federation of Independent Business. Perez said that will still be a plus because it will restore leisure time to overworked

NTSB: AMTRAK ENGINEER DISTRACTED IN FATAL CRASH

Federal crash investigators ruled Tuesday that an Amtrak engineer caused a fatal crash in Philadelphia because he accelerated to twice the posted speed limit before a curve while likely being distracted by radio chatter about damage to another train. The train barreled into a 50mph curve at 106 mph before derailing May 12, 2015, killing eight passengers and injuring nearly 200, according to National Transportation Safety Board investigators. The northbound track’s speed limit rose to 110 mph just after the accident curve, where that acceleration would have been allowed. But the board ruled that the engineer likely lost track of where he was while listening to six minutes of radio calls between a Southeastern Pennsylvania Transit Authority engineer and a dispatcher about rocks thrown through the windshield of the other train that stopped on an adjacent track. — Bart Jansen SECOND JUDGE APPROVES ‘EL CHAPO’ EXTRADITION TO U.S.

A second Mexican judge has ruled in favor of extraditing notorious drug lord Joaquín “El Chapo” Guzmán to the United States, this time to face trial on murder,

racketeering and other charges in Texas. Last week, another judge ruled that Guzmán can be extradited from Mexico to face trafficking charges in Los Angeles. U.S. Attorney General Loretta Lynch said then that she expected an “imminent resolution” to the extradition requests. The latest ruling, handed down Monday, is not likely to expedite extradition. — María Lourdes Hércules ARMY SGT. BERGDAHL TRIAL POSTPONED UNTIL NEXT YEAR

The start of the trial of Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl, who faces desertion and misbehavior charges for abandoning his post in Afghanistan, has been postponed until next year to give his defense team time to sift though thousands of pages of secret documents. The new date, Feb. 6, which may still change as a result of scheduling conflicts, was set at a brief hearing Tuesday at Fort Bragg in North Carolina, the Army said in a statement. The initial trial date had been set for Aug. 8. The case has grown more complex as prosecutors and defense attorneys have grappled with 1.5 million pages of documents in connection with the investigation into the capture and detention of Bergdahl. — Jim Michaels

employees. Yet some businesses plan to cut employees’ base pay to offset the overtime, effectively skirting the requirement. “The Obama rule puts a huge cost and regulatory burden on employers, who will face pressure to cut back on benefits and fulltime employees,” says Trey Kovacs, policy analyst with the Competitive Enterprise Institute. But U.S. Rep. Mark Takano, DCalif., said it’s “long overdue,” adding that “millions of employees are working long hours without fair compensation.” The administration, which initially proposed the rule last summer, did make concessions in

response to the 270,000 public comments it received. It lowered the salary threshold to $47,476 from the proposed $50,544. And it is allowing employers to apply bonuses and incentive payments to up to 10% of the new salary threshold. The threshold also will be updated every three years instead of annually, rising to $51,000 on Jan. 1, 2020. Perez said the new rule also clarifies the types of duties whitecollar employees must perform to be exempt. That potentially makes eligible an additional 8.9 million workers now misclassified, he said, such as certain administrative employees who don’t supervise anyone.

Segregation worsening in U.S. schools, study finds ‘Isolated’ facilities had fewer math, science courses and more students who were held back

A Sri Lankan Army rescue team carries a woman to safety through floodwaters in the capital city of Colombo on Tuesday. Two days of heavy rains have left at least 11 people dead.

Many small businesses could hire on part-time workers to keep fulltime employees under 40 hours a week to avoid paying overtime.

“Too few people are getting the overtime that (federal law) intended. ... It’s simply not right.”

America’s public schools — 62 years after the Supreme Court’s historic Brown v. Board of Education decision — are increasingly segregated by race and class, according to new findings by Congress’ watchdog agency that echo what advocates for low-income and minority students have said for years. U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO) investigators found that from the 2000-01 to the 2013-14 school year, both the percentage of K-12 public schools in high poverty and the percentage with mostly African-American or Hispanic students grew significantly, more than doubling, from 7,009 schools to 15,089 schools. The percentage of all schools with so-called racial or socioeconomic isolation grew from 9% to 16%. Researchers define “isolated schools” as those in which 75% or more of students are of the same race or class. Such schools, investigators found, offered disproportionately fewer math, science and college-prep courses and had higher rates of students who were held back in ninth grade, suspended or expelled. What’s more, GAO investigators found, public charter schools, a key strategy in improving education for such students, may take minority and poor students from larger more diverse public schools and enroll them into less diverse schools. Overall, Hispanic students tended to be “triple segregated” by race, economics and language, investigators found. The report, requested by Congress in 2014, on the 60th anniversary of the Brown v. Board of Education decision that struck down the “separate but equal” laws that segregated schools, was released Tuesday, WASHINGTON

on its 62nd anniversary. U.S. Rep. John Conyers, DMich., one of two lawmakers who requested the study, said it “confirms what has long been feared and proves that current barriers against educational equality are eerily similar to those fought during the civil rights movement. There simply can be no excuse for allowing educational apartheid in the 21st century.” Education Secretary John King said Tuesday that the nation’s schools “have made a lot of progress in providing educational equity and opportunity for all students,” achieving record high graduation rates and lower dropout rates for African Americans and Latinos. “But we still have a long way to go,” King said. “Six decades after Brown v. Board, we have failed to close opportunity and achievement gaps for our African-American and Latino students at every level of education.” The segregation findings are not new to civil rights advocates, who have said for years that U.S. schools are splintered by race and class. The Civil Rights Project at UCLA reported this week that even as the number of minority students in U.S. public schools has grown over the past three decades, diversity has taken a hit in many schools. It noted that the percentage of “hyper-segregated schools, in which 90% or more of students are minorities, grew since 1988 from 5.7% to 18.4%. GAO investigators recommended that the U.S. Department of Education analyze the civil rights data it collects to “further explore and understand issues and patterns of disparities.” In a letter responding to the findings, Catherine E. Lhamon, the department’s assistant secretary for civil rights, said it already does this, “both internally and for external consumption.” Lhamon said the report had prompted the department to consider whether it could do more analysis of the data.

MONEYLINE INFLATION POSTS LARGEST INCREASE IN THREE YEARS Inflation accelerated in April as a result of rising gasoline prices. The consumer price index rose 0.4%, the Labor Department said Tuesday, more than the 0.3% economists expected and the largest increase in three years. The index was up 1.1% over the past year. Excluding volatile food and gasoline items, so-called core inflation increased 0.2%, in line with economists’ estimates. Gasoline prices jumped 8.1% in April. Regular gas averaged $2.22 on Monday, up from $2.11 a month ago, according to AAA. Food costs increased 0.2%; airline fares surged 1.1%, reversing a decline the previous month; and rent and medical care services both rose 0.3%.

Info was concealed for at least 42 years Matt Krantz @mattkrantz USA TODAY

The U.S. Treasury has finally revealed Saudi Arabia’s holdings of U.S. debt — after four decades of keeping it secret. And it’s big. The oil-rich nation was holding $116.8 billion in U.S. treasuries as of March 2016, the Treasury Department disclosed this week. That ended its long-standing practice of grouping the amount with other nations since Treasury began providing records on foreign ownership in 1974. Saudi Arabia’s holdings weren’t broken out separately but grouped in with more than a dozen other nations, mainly members of OPEC. Investors for the first time can see how the oil-rich nation ranks

WHO THE U.S. OWES

in terms of owning U.S. government securities. Saudi Arabia lands as the 13th-largest holder of U.S. treasuries, just behind India at $118.9 billion and ahead of Singapore with $112.7 billion. Saudi Arabia’s holdings dipped 2.5%

from the record $119.8 million the country held in February. While Saudi Arabia’s holdings are significant, they are smaller than what many had thought before, says Marilyn Cohen, CEO of bond management firm Envision Capital Management. Saudi Arabia’s holdings fall well behind giants such as China and Japan, with holdings valued at $1.2 trillion and $1.1 trillion, respectively. The fact Saudi Arabia isn’t even in the top 10 limits any potential fallout of the disclosure on the Treasury market, Cohen says. Bond investors are left puzzling over why the Treasury Department would suddenly disclose this information after keeping it masked for years, Cohen says. “There’s something political going on behind the curtains,” she says. “It must have been some sort of political push that may never be disclosed.” Saudi Arabia’s Treasury hold-

ings were first reported by Bloomberg News, which issued a Freedom of Information Act request to access the data. Some wonder if the report indicates Saudi Arabia might be holding U.S. debt indirectly, as to not be included in the Treasury Department’s tally. Saudi Arabia’s central bank has stated it owned nearly $600 billion in U.S. treasuries, Cohen says. The disclosures show additional context about who owns U.S. treasuries. The Cayman Islands, a British territory in the Caribbean known for its business-friendly tax structure, owns $265 billion in U.S. debt, which ranks third ahead of Ireland. Saudi Arabia’s disclosure comes at a time when the nation is trying to diversify away from its reliance on oil, Cohen says. “I don’t think they’ll be happy with this” report’s release, she says. “Whether we hear anything about it, that’s the question.”

PLAINS ALL AMERICAN INDICTED AFTER OIL SPILL Houston-based Plains All American Pipeline and one of its employees were indicted Tuesday by a California grand jury on 46 counts in connection with a 100,000-gallon oil spill last year from its pipeline near Santa Barbara, Calif. “Plains believes that neither the company nor any of its employees engaged in any criminal behavior at any time in connection with this accident,” the company said Tuesday. It will “vigorously defend” itself against the charges. Ten of the counts are related to the oil spill, and 36 counts are for dead wildlife. The spill “has scarred the scenic Santa Barbara coast, natural habitats and wildlife,” California Attorney General Kamala Harris said last year. MARKETER DEX MEDIA FILES FOR CHAPTER 11 BANKRUPTCY Dex Media, which has its origins in phone book publishing, filed for Chapter 11 protection Tuesday. The marketing company provides online, mobile and printed yellow pages, as well as search tools, to small and medium local businesses. This will be the third bankruptcy for the company in less than 10 years. Under the restructuring, Dex Media’s senior secured lenders will exchange their current $2.12 billion of claims for a new $600 million first-lien term loan and 100% of the equity of the reorganized company. Dex Media expects to pay its vendor bills in full.

blame, and it’s not just high rents. Many point to crushing student debt loads. But the real culprits, experts say, are the housing crisis and the Great Recession, which forced many into foreclosure. Many who didn’t lose their homes found themselves with negative equity — owing more to their lender than a fair market price. This is commonly referred to as being underwater, and when homeowners feel like they are drowning, they tend to stay put. That leads to not enough affordable supply to meet the demand. “The biggest single impediment right now is affordable housing, finding homes that are affordable to Millennials,” says Svenja Gudell, chief economist with homebuying site Zillow, pointing to the fact that, as of March, inventory was down nearly 6% nationally compared with this time last year. Persistence paid off for Elizabeth and David. After months of searching they found a condo and negotiated the price down a few thousand dollars, to $477,375 — which was over their initial budget of $400,000 to $450,000. They decided to go for it because it had everything they were looking for, including two bedrooms, two baths, an open living space that would fit their furniture, the bonus of a completely updated kitchen, plus it was in a prime location they loved. “We hadn’t seen anything this nice that fit all of our criteria before,” Elizabeth says. “The second we found a place that was exactly what we wanted, all of a sudden that much money made sense.” USA TODAY was with them on the final leg of their search, through inspection, closing and move-in day. “I just want to have something that’s mine,” Elizabeth says. “There’s a sense of wanting to be able to take care of something forever and make it yours over time that you don’t get when you rent.”

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

Monday, Wall Street wasn’t worried much about the Federal Reserve raising interest rates at its June meeting. Futures markets placed chances of a hike next month at roughly 4%. But that was before data released Tuesday showed inflation at the consumer level ticking up 0.4%, the biggest monthly gain in the consumer price index since February 2013 — or more than three years ago. That got the attention of Wall Street, which now thinks the Fed has more hard data to make a case for hiking rates in June. Adding to the rate woes were comments from two Fed members Tuesday that suggested there was still a chance for two and maybe even three rate in-

creases this year. The latest rate angst makes Wednesday’s release of the minutes of the Fed’s April meeting even more important. Futures markets are now pricing in 19% odds of a June hike, still low but up sharply from Monday. The Dow fell 181 points to 17,530 Tuesday on rate-hike fears. Investors will scrutinize the Fed minutes for any clues of a rate hike coming sooner rather than later. They’ll also look for signs of rising dissension from Fed hawks, or members pushing for a rate hike. “The market has very little priced in relative to Fed commentary, and there is a mismatch,” says Dan Heckman, senior fixed income strategist at U.S. Bank Wealth Management. “The market is basically saying, ‘We don’t believe you, Fed.’ The risk is that the market gets surprised.”

Discount stores seem to be the places to shop Q: Are any retailers bucking the pain? Matt Krantz

mkrantz@usatoday.com USA TODAY

A: It’s a tough time to be a retailer — unless you’re a discounter. Most of the major department storebased retailers, including Macy’s and Nordstrom, have reported disappointing results and are facing a downward trajectory in business. But there are outliers — even those that predominantly sell apparel — including discounters such as TJX. Shares of the company, best known for its T.J. Maxx stores, are up more than 12% over the past year as profit continues to grow. The company on Tuesday reported an adjusted quarterly profit of 76 cents a share, which beat expectations by 7%, S&P Global Market Intelligence says. And unlike other retailers seeing their bottom lines contract, TJX’s adjusted quarterly profit rose more than 10% from the same period a year ago. It’s not cost cutting, either, as revenue during the same period added roughly 10%. Shares of TJX added 40 cents, or 0.5%, to $75.59 on the news. Another key player in the discount apparel industry, Ross Stores, also is an exception to the retail malaise. Analysts expect the company to report adjusted quarterly profit of 73 cents a share, which would be a 9% increase from a year ago. Consumers are willing to spend, but they want a deal.

Lending Club shares plummet after subpoena disclosure Jon Swartz and Trevor Hughes

@jswartz, @trevorhughes USA TODAY

Shares of peerto-peer lending operator Lending Club continued to plunge Tuesday following the company’s disclosure it has received a federal subpoena and expects to be sued amid founder and CEO Renaud Laplanche’s resignation over an internal probe concerning $22 million in improper loan sales. The San Francisco-based company’s shares fell 34 cents, or SAN FRANCISCO

DON EMMERT, AFP/GETTY IMAGES

Lending Club CEO Renaud Laplanche resigned earlier this month.

8.6%, to close at $3.60 Tuesday. The drop deepened a plunge that saw the company’s stock fall 8% in after hours trading on Monday after Lending Club said the U.S.

Department of Justice on May 9 issued a grand jury subpoena over what the company called “nonconforming sales.” “The company is fully cooperating and has engaged in a productive and orderly dialogue through counsel,” Lending Club said in a statement. Last week, the company shocked investors — and lost about a third of its market value — when it revealed managers had sold $22 million in loans to an institutional investor despite knowing they didn’t meet the investor’s explicit criteria. Company officials described the financial im-

pact of fixing the loans as “minor” but said the sale had violated investors’ trust. Company officials on Monday declined to discuss what testimony or records the subpoena sought. The company said it has also been in contact with the SEC after acknowledging Laplanche also failed to inform its board he held personal interests in a thirdparty fund in which Lending Club itself was considering an investment. Lending Club officials say it is strengthening internal controls and disclosed that three other senior managers involved in the

loan sales were fired or had resigned. Lending Club operates in an industry that is commonly referred to as “peer-to-peer” lending. Instead of coming primarily from bank deposits, the capital to invest in the loans comes directly from a range of sources including retail investors, high-net-worth individuals, banks and finance companies, insurance companies, hedge funds, foundations, pension plans and university endowments. The company says it has facilitated about $18.7 billion in loans since launching in 2007.

ABC is adding three new dramas and two comedies to its fall lineup and creating a second two-hour comedy block on Tuesdays, where The Middle will relocate to lead off the night. Scandal won’t return until midseason thanks to star Kerry Washington’s maternity leave, breaking up producer Shonda Rhimes’ lock on Thursdays. And Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. will shift later on Tuesdays. Those are the highlights of the network’s fall schedule, which will include 10 comedies. New fall dramas will star Kiefer Sutherland (24), Hayley Atwell (canceled Marvel’s Agent Carter) and Piper Perabo (Covert Affairs), while the pair of new comedies star Katy Mixon (Mike and Molly) and Minnie Driver (About a Boy). Sutherland stars as a lowlevel Cabinet officer who becomes an unlikely president after a terrorist attack in Designated Survivor, which will replace Nashville on Wednesday nights. Conviction, starring Atwell as a former first daughter turned crime-solver, will take the canceled Castle’s slot on Mondays, following Dancing With the Stars. Notorious looks at the “unique, sexy and dangerous interplay of criminal law and the media” and will be sandwiched between Rhimes’ Grey’s Anatomy and How to Get Away With Murder. It stars

And in a significant comedy shuffle, The Goldbergs will replace The Middle as Wednesday’s lead-off, to be followed by Speechless, a family comedy starring Driver as a mom parenting a special-needs child, and the returning Modern Family and Black-ish. And on Tuesdays, returning comedies Fresh Off the Boat and The Real O’Neals will shift to later time periods as The Middle is followed by American Housewife, starring Mixon as a mom to a “flawed family” amid the “perfection” of tony Westport, Conn. The comedy-heavy lineup (contrasting with NBC’s two) “really was a question of doubling down on what’s working,” says ABC Entertainment chief Channing Dungey. “We’re extremely proud of ... Wednesday night, and we said, ‘Let’s lean into stuff our audiences are responding to.’ ” For midseason, look for a remake of Time After Time on Sundays; a Rhimes-produced Romeo-and-Julietthemed period drama; and a third season of anthology series American Crime. The network, also known for soapy, female-skewing dramas, has struggled this season, leading it to replace its top programmer: Ratings fell 15%, to a third-place 6.8 million viewers, and ABC ranked fourth among young adults, down 16%. Alone among the four major networks, it has no NFL games to boost its averages.

Netflix’s freewheeling ‘Chelsea’ gets lost somewhere midstream

If Chelsea is a work in progress, someone had better get to work. In the very early going, at least, Chelsea Handler’s new Netflix talk show is less a sePREVIEW ries than a barely asROBERT sociated set of ideas. BIANCO Perhaps someday those ideas and star impulses will coalesce into a coherent, watchable whole — but nothing on display in the show (new episodes Wednesday, Thursday and Friday; egEE out of four) would lead you to believe that day is coming anytime soon. The appeal the Netflix platform might hold for a talk show host is fairly obvious. Off the air, Chelsea is free from commercial breaks, time-slot constraints and ratings pressure — leaving Handler free to do almost anything she wants, assuming she has figured out what that is. There is, however, an equally obvious drawback for viewers. While those old-style constraints can hamper artistic freedom, they also force a host to go beyond considering what he or she wants

DAN MACMEDAN, USA TODAY

Chelsea Handler, and Netflix, enter new territory with the open-format chatfest Chelsea.

In real life, Handler may be the most curious, open person on Earth; on air, she projects no great interest in learning from — or even listening to — the people around her.

to considering what we might want. No artist should be bound by audience expectations, but a pop-culture entertainer who ignores our desires is asking for trouble. Or at the very least, asking to work in solitude. If there’s a unifying concept at work here that distinguishes Chelsea from Handler’s former E! series, Chelsea Lately, it’s the idea that the host is using the show and her guests as learning tools. As she put it in her opener, “I’m treating this show like the college education I never got.” Yet somewhere between concept and execution, Chelsea has gone oddly awry. Rather than humorously highlighting her attempts at education, the taped bits that showed Handler learning about topics such as comic books and telenovelas came across as condescending at best and insulting at worst. In real life, Handler may be the most curious, open, empathetic person on Earth. On air, she’s projecting no great interest in learning from — or even listening to — the people around her. Those people were the typical

talk show mixed bag, from Drew Barrymore, Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Evans to Education Secretary John King Jr. The rambling chatter bounced between the serious and the inane but mostly avoided politics — a strange choice, considering Handler’s opening insistence that we “needed” her in an election year. But no worries: For that, your best bet is Samantha Bee, who has quickly made her TBS show Full Frontal an indispensable weekly stop. Still, formats can be tweaked and directions altered. What ultimately matters more is whether you are amused by Handler’s comedy style, built as it is upon humblebrags about her dissolute lifestyle (“Call me old-fashioned, but I just want to live in reality — and then alter that reality with drugs”) and a firm conviction that adding the “F-word” to any sentence automatically makes it funny. As you’ve probably gleaned from that description, it is not a style that has ever worked particularly well for me. If it works for you, however, start streaming.

REGIONAL SOFTBALL

Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

Kansas receiver outlook improves Aqib Talib provided so many huge plays at cornerback during his career at Kansas University, capped by his interception return for a touchdown in the Orange Bowl, that it’s easy to forget former coach Mark Mangino also picked his spots using Talib as a wide receiver during his senior season. Talib only was used often enough to make eight receptions during the 2007 season, but that was time enough for him to total more touchdown receptions (four) than every KU wide receiver combined for in a two-season stretch (zero in 2012, three in 2013). Charlie Weis temporarily patched the position well enough that Kansas rebounded with eight touchdowns from players lined up at wide receiver in 2014. All eight were from transfers from four-year schools: Nick Harwell had five, Justin McCay two and Nigel King one. Not great production, especially when compared to KU’s 30 wide-receiver TD catches in 2007 and 31 in 2008, but not so embarrassing as to make national headlines any longer. Sure, other factors were at play during the wideout scoring droughts. The line had trouble protecting the quarterbacks, and the quarterbacks had difficulty throwing accurately, but a lack of talent at wideout also played a huge role. Tre’ Parmalee, who led KU with three TD catches last season, is gone, but four receivers who combined for seven scores are back. Darious Crawley, Tyler Patrick and Steven Sims had two apiece, Bobby Hartzog and Shakiem Barbel one. Jeremiah Booker didn’t find the end zone as a true freshman but showed some talent and caught 23 passes in eight games after missing the first four games because of an injury. That’s a solid group of receivers, even if it lacks a big-play threat who keeps defensive coordinators awake at night trying to figure out how to keep the ball out of his hands. That’s where LaQuvionte Gonzalez comes in. The Texas A&M transfer who has two remaining years of eligibility is the loudest talent on KU’s offense, maybe the entire roster. His 61-yard touchdown sprint after catching a pass on a slant pattern put some electricity into an otherwise dull spring exhibition. David Beaty’s desire for an ultra-fast-paced Air Raid offense demands a deep stable of wide receivers. Depth at the position grew in rapid-fire fashion when Reggie Roberson of Dallas and Takulve Williams of New Orleans, the second Louisiana recruit in the Class of 2017, orally committed Tuesday, pushing the number of commitments to six, not bad considering it’s only May.

FREE STATE HIGH SENIOR PITCHER ELIZABETH PATTON DELIVERS A PITCH during the Firebirds’ 16-3 loss to Olathe Northwest on Tuesday at the College Boulevard Activity Center.

Firebirds rout Manhattan, fall to ONW By Bobby Nightengale bnightengale@ljworld.com

Olathe — Free State High softball coach Lee Ice believes the best way to compete with the top teams in the state is to avoid putting leadoff hitters on base and keep crooked numbers off the scoreboard. Facing Olathe Northwest in the regional championship on Tuesday, the Firebirds didn’t have anything go their way and suffered a seasonending 16-3 loss in five in-

nings at College Boulevard Activity Center. The top-seeded Ravens put the leadoff hitter on base in each inning and hit around the lineup in two innings. They drilled eight extra-base hits, including a pair of home runs from junior Madison Young and senior Kaitlynn Kukowski. The Firebirds advanced to the regional title game with an 8-1 victory over Manhattan earlier in the afternoon. “We felt the best opportunity for us to beat that (Northwest) was to get

(pitcher) Elizabeth (Patton) as long as she could into Game Two,” Ice said. “She threw 89 pitches in Game One, and she just ran out of gas. Bless her heart, she tried her hardest. We just didn’t have enough at the end.” Patton was dominant against Manhattan. During the 8-1 victory, Patton only allowed three hits and struck out 11. Against the bottom five hitters in the MHS lineup, Patton didn’t allow any base-runners, recording nine strikeouts in their 13 at-bats.

In the middle innings, the senior right-hander retired 14 consecutive hitters. “I felt really good,” Patton said. “I felt solid, and I was hoping to carry it over. We played well defensively and offensively. We were on a high from that, and Northwest is a really good team. We tried our hardest, which matters in the end.” Against Manhattan, the Firebirds pulled ahead with a four-run second inning. They Please see SOFTBALL, page 3C

CBE Classic field revealed By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

placed second in 2008, beating Washington and falling to Syracuse in overtime. George Washington, which went 28-10 last season (11-7 in Atlantic 10), is led by senior forward Tyler Cavanaugh, who averaged 16.8 points a game. Coach Mike Lonergan’s Colonials defeated San Diego State and Valparaiso to take the postseason NIT crown in New York. Former KU guard Jerod Haase recently accepted the head-coaching job at Stanford, thus won’t be coaching UAB in the CBE tourney. His assistant, Robert Ehsan, is first-year head coach of the Blazers, who went 26-7 a year ago (16-2 in C-USA). The Blazers are led by junior forwards Chris Cokley (13.1 ppg) and William Lee (10.6 ppg).

Georgia, which went 2014 a year ago (10-8 in SEC), is led by senior guard J.J. Frazier (16.9 ppg) and junior forward Yante Maten (16.5 ppg). Coach is Mark Fox.

LHS soccer fights but falls, bnightengale@ljworld.com

Olathe — Walking off of the field for the final time this season, Lawrence High girls soccer players were in good spirits Tuesday. The Lions lost in the first round of regionals, 1-0, against Olathe East at College Boulevard Activity Center. But more than that, they were proud of what they accomplished against one of the best teams in the Sunflower League. Before their regional matchup, the Lions

loaded the bases with singles from senior Emily Byers and junior Mayah Daniels and a walk from senior Cali Byrn. Byers scored on a wild pitch, Patton hit a sacrifice fly to drive in Byrn, and senior Hailey Jump hit an RBI single, scoring Daniels. Junior Jasper Hawkins added an infield single, scoring on a double steal. Hawkins hit a triple in the fourth inning, scoring on a groundout, and Byers hit an RBI single,

QB signee Tyriek Starks at Warren Easton High, also has delivered a commitment from 2017 threestar athlete Travis Jordan, a native of Marrero, La., and continues to drum up interest from other New Orleans-area prospects. “I built a good relationship with coach Hull,” Williams told Jon Kirby of JayhawkSlant.com. “The way he recruited me stood out. I have talked to other recruiters, but he is from Louisiana and knows where I come from. He was a big reason I committed. They are really looking in Louisiana for guys. Coach Hull is a cool dude and I have enjoyed getting to know him. Everybody down here knows about him.” Williams, a two-star prospect according to Rivals.com, chose the Jayhawks over offers from Ball State, Louisiana-Lafayette, Louisiana-Monroe, Memphis, Troy and Tulane. Like Williams, the threestar Roberson, 6-1, 175, announced his commitment to Kansas on Twitter. Roberson chose KU over Colorado State, East Carolina, Illinois, Indiana, Miami (Ohio) and Tulane, among others.

KU coach Bill Self said. “UAB, Georgia and George Washington are all great programs. Sprint Center is a second home for us, and we hope to have that continued support in November.” Tickets will be available starting at 10 a.m., Aug. 6, through axs.com, cbehalloffameclassic. com, by calling 1-888-9297849 or at the Sprint Center box office. l

changed their defensive game plan, and it worked to near perfection. Olathe East senior midfielder Emily Blais scored the game-winning goal with seven minutes left. The Lions finished the year with a 7-10 record, their most wins in a season since 2009. “I think we just wanted to prove to some people what we could do,” LHS junior defender Carson Drake said. “I think even though we didn’t win, we sort of scared them a little bit, which was victory enough for us.”

When the two teams played each other less than two weeks ago on the same field, the Lions lost, 6-0. On Tuesday, the Lions were sharp defensively with a bend-but-don’tbreak mentality against the fifth-seeded Hawks (11-5-1), especially backline defenders Drake, sophomore Katelyn McIntyre, freshman Leslie Ostronic and junior April Hodges. They won plenty of 50-50 balls in the air and made successful tackles outside of the 18-yard box. LHS sophomore goalkeeper Tori Mosakows

was at the top of her game, making one of her best saves right before the horn at halftime. Only a few feet in front of the goal line, she blocked a shot by diving to her left, saw the ball was about to spin into the net and made a second effort to secure the ball. “She’s a workhorse, and she put in, probably, two hours extra with her own goalkeeper coach yesterday, and it paid off,” LHS coach Matt McCune said of Mosakows. “I told her, ‘That’s what extra training does. It makes you

better.’ It doesn’t make you perfect, but it makes you better.” McCune’s speech before the regional matchup was to embrace the underdog mentality and have fun. The Lions had no pressure on them as the No. 12 seed. “Obviously, last game it was 6-0, so this game was kind of a different story, even though they kind of slipped one in with seven minutes,” Drake said. “It was good we stuck with them and had a few chances. I’m proud of the way we played.”

scoring senior Dacia Starr. Byers went 3-for-3 in the first game with two runs scored. But the FSHS offense was limited to only four hits against Olathe Northwest junior pitcher Aubree Herrin. Patton drilled a two-run double to the right-field wall in the second inning, and senior Kate Stanwix hit a two-out, solo home run in the third inning. “I think it’s just really frustrating because I know we’re capable of hitting right along with them,” Stanwix said. “Coach Ice always says, ‘Good pitching is going to

beat good hitting.’ That’s just how it was today.” Earlier in the season, the Firebirds lost, 4-2, against the Ravens on April 7. But if most things went right in that game — the Ravens only put the leadoff hitter on base in two of the seven innings — it was the opposite Tuesday. In the pitching circle, the Firebirds issued nine walks and hit one batter, and the Ravens made them pay for most of them. “That’s a good team. That’s why they are 21-1,” Ice said. “It’s just a matter of, they had more than we had today. The score was

no indication of the two teams by any means. But that’s what happens in this league when you run out of pitching a little bit and things get away from you.” With a team full of 10 seniors, the Firebirds were emotional after the final out, watching the Ravens celebrate their berth into the Class 6A state tournament. Free State finished the season with a 12-10 record. “We’re extremely close,” Patton said. “I think this is the closest the senior class, the varsity and program as a whole, has ever been.

We work really hard to include everyone, which makes this even worse. We’ve all played together for a really long time, so when it’s finally at its end, it’s really hard for everyone.” Olathe Northwest 16, Free State 3 Free State 021 00 — 3 4 0 Northwest 425 5x — 16 16 0 W — Aubree Herrin.

BRIEFLY KU baseball falls to WSU Wichita — Wichita State had an answer for every Kansas University score, including a tworun eighth that lifted the Shockers to a 7-6 nonconference baseball victory over the Jayhawks on Tuesday at Eck Stadium. Kansas (20-32-1) had three leads — at 1-0 in the top of the first 5-4 in the top of the sixth and at 6-5 in the top of the eighth, but WSU (20-33) either tied or went ahead in the bottom of each frame. “It was a tough loss,” KU coach Ritch Price said. “Both teams had opportunities to score, and it seemed like the pitchers got into and out of trouble all night.” Kansas will conclude its regular season with a threegame set Thursday-Saturday at Oklahoma State.

Bolden, a 6-10 senior center from DeSoto (Texas) High, says he will announce for Kentucky or Duke on Thursday afternoon. Bolden, ranked No. 11 nationally by Rivals.com, always could sign a letter-of-intent with both schools before the deadline and send in paperwork to the winner. Meanwhile, Allen, a 6-9 senior from St. Stephens Episcopal School in Austin, Texas, has yet to say when he will choose between KU, Texas and Houston. He recently cut Kentucky, North Carolina and Notre Dame from his list. Recruiting analysts believe Texas is the leader for the No. 15-rated Allen simply because Jai Lucas has been promoted to full-time Longhorn assistant. Allen trains with Lucas’ dad, John, when in Houston.

Kansas City, Mo. (ap) — The Royals’ plan in spring training was for Paulo Orlando and Jarrod Dyson to platoon in right field. Orlando is making quite the case to play every day. The speedy Brazilian hit a two-run homer, a two-run single and a stand-up triple to pace the Royals’ resurgent offense Tuesday night, and Kansas City went on to beat the hot-hitting Boston Red Sox 8-4 in the opener of their threegame series. “I’m very happy to be here. Whatever they need, defense or baserunning, I just come to the field to help,” said Orlando, who started his fourth straight game. “They know what I can do to help the team.” Omar Infante and Alcides Escobar also drove in runs for Kansas City. Yordano Ventura (4-2) gave up four runs and seven hits over 52⁄3 innings before exiting with a one-run lead. Orlando’s homer highlighted a three-run eighth that gave the Royals some breathing room. “You try to find a hot hitter, and you kind of ride it out,” Kansas City manager Ned Yost said. “We just right now need the offense. The offense from the bottom of the order tonight was fantastic.”

MAJOR-LEAGUE ROUNDUP

National League Mets 2, Nationals 0 New York — Noah Syndergaard brought his 100 mph heat and struck out 10, Curtis Granderson homered on Max Scherzer’s first pitch, and New York beat Washington. Daniel Murphy returned to Citi Field with a major-league-best .400 batting average and drew two early standing ovations, then got booed.

Brewers 4, Cubs 2 Milwaukee — Chase Anderson took a no-hitter into the eighth inning and finished with 82⁄3 strong innings to lift Milwaukee over Chicago. The Cubs entered averaging 5.94 runs per game, but Anderson (2-5) stopped them almost cold to snap a personal fivegame skid. Ben Zobrist ended Anderson’s no-hit bid with a double to the wall in center on the first pitch of the eighth. Anderson was perfect through 51⁄3 innings before walking Miguel Montero on a 3-2 pitch. Anderson regrouped by striking out Kyle Hendricks and Dexter Fowler.

ey, there! Did you ever have one of those days when you really, really needed a serious dose of chocolate? I have ‘em a lot, so I’m always on the lookout for the next great brownie recipe. Chewy, fudgy or cake style, brownies deliver a much-needed cocoa blast that can perk up a rough day with just one bite. This recipe turns out a dense, fudgy brownie with mild sweetness and a hint of cinnamon. The extra flavor boost comes from plum jelly, an ingredient that your coffee break guests will probably never guess! Behold, the recipe.

Cinnamon Plum Brownies Ingredients: 3/4 cup butter 3 tablespoons plum jelly 1 1/2 cups sugar 2 large eggs 1 tablespoon vanilla extract 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour 1/4 teaspoon salt 1/2 teaspoon baking powder 1 teaspoon cinnamon 3/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon cocoa

Oral and Intravenous Vitamin C Show Anti-Viral Beneﬁts

the infection).

The role of vitamin C in combating infections has been controversial, but the vitamin does seem to help according to two recent studies. Carol S. Johnston, PhD, of Arizona State University, Phoenix, and her colleagues gave either 1,000 mg of vitamin C or placebos daily to 28 young nonsmoking men who had marginal-to-low blood levels of the vitamin. Tests measured their physical activity and upper respiratory symptoms during the eightweek study. Johnston reported several ﬁndings. By the last two weeks of the study, men taking vitamin C had a modest increase in physical activity. Vitamin C plays a role in how cells produce energy. The men were also 45 percent less likely to contract a cold. Only seven of the 15 men taking vitamin C had colds, compared with 11 of the 13 taking placebos. Furthermore, the length of colds was reduced by an average of 59 percent in men taking vitamin C, compared with the placebo group. In a second study, Nina A. Mikirova, PhD, and Ronald Hunninghake, MD, of the Riordan Clinic, Wichita, Kansas, analyzed the effect of intravenous vitamin C (IVC) on 218 patients who had been infected with the Epstein-Barr virus. The virus causes mononucleosis and can trigger Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS). Dr. Hunninghake is a medical advisor to The Nutrition Reporter™ newsletter. Most of the subjects had a diagnosis of CFS, while the remainder had mononucleosis, fatigue, or Epstein-Barr infection. Laboratory tests found that they had elevated levels of Epstein-Barr virus antibodies (which ﬁght

Frank B. Hu, MD, PhD, of the Harvard University School of Public Health, and his colleagues analyzed data from the studies, in which 56,423 people died during follow-up periods ranging from 4.6 to 26 years. Each daily serving of fruits and vegetables reduced the risk of death from all causes and specifically cardiovascular diseases by about 5 percent. In other words, eating five servings of fruits and vegetables daily reduced the risk of death by about 25 percent. “There was a threshold around five servings of fruits and vegetables a day, after which the risk of all cause mortality did not reduce any further,” Hu wrote.

Antibody levels decreased signiﬁcantly among patients receiving IVC, compared with patients who did not receive the treatment. In addition, the levels of antibodies were inversely correlated with blood vitamin C levels.
