ranted, it was difficult for any story of 2016 to compete with the presidential election that gripped (or was it griped?) the nation. But the Kansas Statehouse scene did its best to keep up. Yes, there were fewer pompadours and pantsuits, but Kansas politics produced plenty of drama. A set of negative numbers hovered over the Capitol for much of the year. Kansas tax collections consistently came in below estimates. By the time the November estimates were released earlier this month, the state’s revenues

The Lawrence school district has appealed a ruling from the Federal Communications Commission that found that district officials violated federal conflict-ofinterest rules. As a result of the FCC finding, which accused administrators of improperly accepting more than a dozen free internet accounts, the school district may lose out on approximately $840,000 in funding.

were about $350 million less than what the state already had budgeted to spend. Looking further ahead, the state is now projecting about a $580 million shortfall for the next budget year, which begins July 1. Given that Lawrence’s largest employer is statefunded and that thousands of the city’s residents rely upon state pensions, the Journal-World’s newsroom staff has chosen the state’s fiscal problems — and the various offshoots it produced — as the top local story of 2016. The revenue shortfall caused Democrats — and some moderate Republicans — to call for an overhaul of the state’s tax code. The tax code previously was changed at the urging of Republican Gov. Sam Brownback to cut income tax rates and eliminate state taxes on some business income that is passed through to the owners of businesses. Brownback had negative numbers of another kind hovering above him for much of the year. Opponents frequently pointed to surveys that labeled him the least popular governor in the nation, but Brownback did not alter his position on the tax cuts he has championed. He said Kansas finances were struggling because of deep downturns in the oil, gas and agricultural sectors, which historically have been keystones in the state’s economic foundation. While the state’s declining checkbook balance was a near constant throughout the year, Kansas’ political scene also produced some short bursts of drama. The first came in June when the Kansas Legislature had to be called into special session to pass legislation to avert the closing of the public school system. The Kansas Supreme Court in May had ruled

that the formula the state uses to distribute one form of aid to local school districts was unconstitutional, and it gave the Legislature until June 30 to fix the formula. State lawmakers rather quickly passed a bill that reverted the state back to its previous funding formula and added about $38 million in funding to the formula to satisfy the Supreme Court. The second piece of political drama predictably came during the election season. Both the primary elections in August and the General Election in November were dominated by the state’s fiscal condition. Several moderate Republicans defeated conservative lawmakers in the primary elections. Moderates and conservatives further improved their standing in the Legislature with additional victories. When the new Legislature convenes on Jan. 9, it is expected to have a more moderate look. However, it will face many of the same old issues. Filling the state’s budget gap will be among the most pressing priorities, and lawmakers also are determined to create a new school finance formula, in part to satisfy a pending ruling by the Kansas Supreme Court. Who knows what else 2017 may bring, but at the Statehouse expect this year’s themes to continue — which means we already have a strong contender for story of the year in 2017. Here’s a look at the other top local stories of 2016, as decided by the Journal-World staff:

LAWRENCE • STATE allegedly improperly funneled non hotel-related sales through the special taxing district that exists at The Oread. The city contends those sales were run through the special taxing district in order for the Fritzel entity to receive tax rebates that it was not entitled to receive. The Oread developers have denied wrongdoing. In 2017 there is much to be played out — either in a courtroom or at a settlement table — on this story.

Bernadette Gray-Little, KU’s first black and first female chancellor, announced in September that she will retire in the summer of 2017. GrayLittle, who has held KU’s top post since 2009, will step away as the university and KU Endowment complete the $1.6 billion capital campaign “Far Above: The Campaign for Kansas,” which has been dubbed the largest higher education fundraising effort in Kansas’ history.

l No. 3: South Lawrence Trafficway ribbon cutting. Perhaps you have heard of a project called the South Lawrence Trafficway. Perhaps you were wearing bell-bottoms when you first heard of it. After about 30 years of planning and debate, the eastern leg of the South Lawrence Trafficway opened in November. The road — which was fiercely opposed by environmentalists and American Indian groups for its route through the Haskell and Baker Wetlands — connects Kansas Highway 10 east of Lawrence with Interstate 70 northwest of Lawrence. State officials say Lawrence stands to benefit from the easier access the road creates between Topeka and Johnson County.

l No. 6: City Hall changes. Tom Markus, a veteran city administrator who previously led City Hall in Iowa City, was hired in January to be Lawrence’s next city manager. During his first few months on the job, Markus recommended several staff reductions and other funding cuts in an effort to avoid a tax increase for the city’s 2017 budget. City commissioners took some of the recommendations, but avoided many of the staff reductions and agreed to a property tax increase to fund the budget.

Police officers were called to a Lawrence school board meeting in December after audience members took control of the meeting in protest of an alleged racial incident involving a South Middle School teacher and his class. The district had accepted the resignation of the teacher, but the board took steps to conceal the identity of the teacher who had resigned. After an open records request by the Journal-World, the district conceded that it had entered a settlement agreement with the teacher, which requires that the district not divulge to potential future employers that the teacher had been investigated. The teacher has denied making racist statements. Members of the public — ranging from various parents to the NAACP to a group called Black Lives Matter-LFK — have objected to how the school board handled the incident. l No. 9 (tie): KU construction.

District CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A

Earlier this year, the Universal Service Administrative Company, which is a division of the FCC, told the district that it believed the commission’s gift rule had been violated, according to regulatory documents filed with the FCC. Essentially, the USAC found the district accepted 15 free residential internet accounts as a part of its contract with the district’s then-internet provider, Knology of Kansas, the documents say. Accepting the free accounts — an estimated value of $17,400 — violates an E-rate program that helps schools afford internet access. “E-Rate” is the commonly used name for the Schools and Libraries Program of the Universal Service Fund, which is administered by the USAC. The program helps schools in obtaining affordable internet access, among other things. The USAC argued that the free

accounts may have affected the district’s decision to select Knology as its internet provider. The finding means the district may be forced to repay $500,000 in already-received federal funds, and it could prevent the schools from receiving an additional $340,000. Both the school district and Knology appealed the findings, arguing that the free accounts were offered “as a part of Knology’s regular commercial offerings made over the course of many years” and did not influence decision-makers in the district, the documents state. In addition, Knology’s appeal argued that the company did not unduly influence the bidding process because it was “either the lone bidder or lowest bidder for each bid that it was awarded.” In a written statement Friday, district spokeswoman Julie Boyle said the district approved a five-year contract with Knology in 2011 and the company was the only bidder for the “fair and open bidding process.” Not all of the 15 accounts offered were put to use, Boyle

said. Only 11 people affiliated with the district were offered the free internet. In 2014 the district was notified that the free accounts may “be an issue” regarding federal gifting rules, Boyle said. As a precaution, the district “took steps to modify the contract, cancel those accounts, and prepare an appeal to USAC.” On Friday, Lawrence school board Vice President Shannon Kimball declined to comment specifically on the pending actions, but said she did receive free internet through Knology when she first joined the board in 2011. After some time, however, she switched internet providers. “This is really unfortunate because when I joined the board I was told ‘Hey, this is something the district has that you can use because we expect you to communicate and we do most of our communication through email anyway,’” she said. “I had no knowledge that it was related whatsoever to the E-Rate program, and I stopped using it and only found out later that this question came up.

“Honestly, I would never do anything in violation of the program or anything like that,” she added. Kimball said she does not believe any rules were violated, however. She noted the district had a consultant examine the contract before it was approved. “I do want to be clear that it’s not my position that the district did anything wrong,” she said. “I know the contracts were competitively bid according to the federal rules.” “It’s pretty frustrating after the fact to find out the consultant set something up in a way it shouldn’t have been set up and now we’re in this situation,” she added. Kathryn Ford, vice president of legal affairs for WOW!, the name Knology now goes by, declined to comment on the pending appeals, noting the topic was something the company would discuss internally. Ford also could not say if other government agencies have also received free internet accounts. “Honestly, I don’t know,” she said.

Court: Sex crime investigator entitled to disability benefits By Peter Hancock phancock@ljworld.com

Topeka — A Kansas Court of Appeals panel said Friday that a former police detective who suffered from post-traumatic stress disorder after spending years investigating sex crimes against children is entitled to disability benefits. The case involved Paul Hudson, who spent four years as a detective in the child sex abuse unit of the Kansas City, Kan., Police Department. From 2007 through 2011, Hudson

investigated hundreds of abuse cases, some of which gave him recurring nightmares involving his own small children. After his supervisors noticed a marked change in his behavior, the department launched an internal investigation, and Hudson was forced to retire. He later sought psychiatric treatment, and three doctors all diagnosed him with PTSD. In 2012, Hudson applied for disability through the Kansas Police and Firemen’s Retirement System, a division of the Kansas Public Employees

Retirement System. KPERS, however, denied the claim based on a review by its own consulting physician who looked only at written reports but who never examined or interviewed Hudson personally. An administrative law judge upheld KPERS’ decision, saying Hudson’s doctors were not aware of the legal definition of disability, and even if Hudson had PTSD, that did not necessarily make him permanently unable to perform the duties of a police officer. Hudson then appealed to

Shawnee County District Court, which reversed KPERS’ decision and said Hudson was entitled to benefits. KPERS then asked the Kansas Court of Appeals for a review. But a three-judge appeals court panel said Friday that testimony from doctors who have actually examined and treated a patient should be given greater weight than that of a doctor whose opinion was based only on a “paper review” of the patient’s medical records. The panel also said that KPERS had ignored a sworn

affidavit from Hudson’s supervisor in the police department who said Hudson was totally and permanently unable to perform his duties. The unanimous opinion was written by Judge Kim Schroeder and was joined by appellate Judge Henry Green and Judge David Stutzman, a Riley County District Court judge who was assigned to the appellate panel. — Statehouse reporter Peter Hancock can be reached at 354-4222.

Man accused of raping girl had been deported 10 times By Roxana Hegeman Associated Press

Wichita — A Mexican man accused of raping a 13-year-old girl on a Greyhound bus that traveled through Kansas had been deported 10 times and voluntarily removed from the U.S. another nine times since 2003, records obtained by The Associated Press show. Three U.S. Republican senators — including Kansas’ Jerry Moran and Pat Roberts — demanded this month that the Department of Homeland Security provide immigration records for 38-year-old Tomas Martinez-Maldonado, who is charged with a felony in the alleged Sept. 27 attack aboard a bus in Geary County. He is being held in the Geary County jail in Junction City, which is about 120 miles west of Kansas City. U.S. Sen. Charles Grassley, from Iowa and chairman of the judiciary committee, co-signed a Dec. 9 letter with Moran and Roberts to Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson, calling it

“an extremely disturbing case” and questioning how Martinez-Maldonado was able to re-enter and remain in the country. U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement said it has placed a detainer — a request to turn Martinez-Maldonado over to ICE custody before he is released — with Geary County. ICE declined to discuss his specific case beyond its October statement regarding the 10 deportations. Court filings show Martinez-Maldonado has two misdemeanor convictions for entering without legal permission in cases prosecuted in 2013 and 2015 in U.S. District Court of Arizona, where he was sentenced to serve 60 days and 165 days respectively. A status hearing in the rape case is scheduled for Jan. 10. Defense attorney Lisa Hamer declined to comment on the charge, but said “criminal law and immigration definitely intersect and nowadays it should be the responsibility of every criminal defense attorney to know

N O W

the possible ramifications in the immigration courts.” Nationwide, 52 percent of all federal prosecutions in the fiscal year that ended Sept. 30 were for entry or re-entry without legal permission and similar immigration violations, according to Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse at Syracuse University. It’s not unusual to see immigrants with multiple entries without legal permission, said David Trevino, a Topeka immigration attorney who has provided legal advice to Martinez-Maldonado’s family. Most of MartinezMaldonado’s family lives in Mexico, but he also has family in the United States, and the family is “devastated,” Trevino said. “(President-elect Donald Trump) can build a wall 100 feet high and 50 feet deep, but it is not going to keep family members separated. So if someone is deported and they have family members here ... they will find a way back — whether it is through the air, under a

wall, through the coast of the United States,” Trevino said. He declined to comment on his client’s criminal history and pending charge. Records obtained by AP show Martinez-Maldonado had eight voluntary removals before his first deportation in 2010, which was followed by another voluntary removal that same year. He was deported five more times between 2011 and 2013. In 2013, MartinezMaldonado was charged with entering without legal permission, a misdemeanor, and subsequently deported in early 2014 after serving his sentence. He was deported again a few months later, as well as twice in 2015 — including the last one in October 2015 after he had served his second sentence, the records show. ICE said in an emailed statement when it encounters a person who’s been deported multiple times or has a significant criminal history and was removed, it routinely presents those cases to the U.S. attorney’s office for

possible criminal charges. Cosme Lopez, spokesman for the U.S. attorney’s office for the District of Arizona, declined comment on why prosecutors twice dismissed felony re-entry after deportation charges against Martinez-Maldonado in 2013 and 2015 in exchange for guilty pleas on misdemeanor entry charges. Arizona ranks third in the nation — behind only the Southern District of Texas and the Western District of Texas — for the number of immigration prosecutions among the nation’s 94 federal judicial districts for the fiscal year that ended Sept. 30, TRAC records show. Moran told the AP in an emailed statement that the immigration system is “broken.” “There must be serious legislative efforts to address U.S. immigration policy, and we must have the ability to identify, prosecute and deport illegal aliens who display violent tendencies before they have an opportunity to perpetrate these crimes in the United States,” he said.

BRIEFLY Man sentenced in mental health facility killing Greensburg (ap) — A Kansas man has been sentenced to 20 years in prison for killing another patient at a mental health facility three days after he was discharged from a state psychiatric hospital. The Hutchinson News reports that 31-year-old Brandon Brown, of Haviland, was sentenced Wednesday in Kiowa County District Court for second-degree murder. He pleaded no contest in October in a case that prompted a state inquiry. Prosecutors say Brown beat Jerry Martinez so severely in May 2015 at a residential care facility that the 61-year-old died the next month. Brown had spent a week at the state-run psychiatric hospital in Osawatomie after fighting with residents at the Haviland Care Center near Wichita.

Profs, students win variety of honors T

he University of Kansas has a couple of outstanding students nominated for the Winston Churchill Scholarship, a new National Academy of Inventors member, a recent graduate who just tacked a Schwarzman Scholarship to her record-breaking list of honors and other students heading to the National Moot Court Competition — to mention just a few recently announced accolades. Here’s a roundup of significant honors and awards KU News announced in December, that we haven’t previously published. Moot Court: KU law students Ashley Billam, Olathe, and Sam LaRoque, Shawnee, will represent KU at the National Moot Court Competition Jan. 30 through Feb. 2 in New York. The pair advanced to nationals after winning the regional competition in November. Research award: Professor of special education Kathleen Lane is the 2017 recipient of the KauffmanHallahan Distinguished Researcher Award, announced by the Division for Research of the Council for Exceptional Children. The award honors researchers who, over the course of their careers, have made outstanding scientific contributions in basic or applied research in special education. Lane’s research focuses on students with emotional and behavioral disorders, including a major emphasis on practices that enable schools to prevent learning and behavior problems in students who have emotional and behavioral disorders or who are otherwise at risk.

validity and constitutes a flagrant violation under international law.” The resolution passed after the United States chose to abstain rather than to exercise its veto authority as it usually does on resolutions criticizing Israel. Samantha Power, the U.S. ambassador to the U.N., said that her vote to abstain did “not in any way diminish the United States’ steadfast and unparalleled commitment to the security of Israel.” Several U.S. allies, including France, Japan, Spain, Great Britain and

New Zealand voted in favor of the unanimous measure. Kerry said in a speech on Wednesday that new Israeli settlements on the West Bank and East Jerusalem pose a threat to any two-state solution between Israelis and Palestinians, a solution that the U.S. and its allies have long supported. But the Obama administration’s decision to abstain on the vote set off a firestorm of controversy, both abroad and in the U.S., where Republicans, as well as some

Tenny, Leawood senior in chemical engineering, are KU’s nominees for the Winston Churchill Scholarship, which provides one year of study at the University of Cambridge in the United Kingdom. Finalists will be selected and interviewed in January, with scholars announced shortly thereafter. Rooney is studying the large-scale structure of the universe through highperformance computing. Tenny’s research goals are focused on electrochemical engineering. They were selected to compete for the scholarship by a committee coordinated by the University Honors Program. National Academy of Inventors: Raghunath Chaudhari, the distinguished professor of chemical and petroleum engineering, has been named a Fellow of the National Academy of Inventors. The third-ever KU professor to get the honor, he’s scheduled to be inducted in April 2017 in Boston. Chaudhari, deputy director for KU’s Center for Environmentally Beneficial Catalysis, researches catalysis, reaction engineering, multiphase reactors and kinetic modeling. According to KU’s announcement, his research has led to many discoveries, including a smart, energy-efficient method for turning plant sugars into the building blocks for plastics, paints, fibers and many other everyday items. His prolific research has generated 282 publications, three books and 71 patents. — This is an excerpt from Sara Shepherd’s Heard on the Hill column, which appears regularly on LJWorld.com.

Happy New Year! Now fix the budget For Kansas legislators, the new year may not feel all that happy. Veterans and firsttermers alike have to be wondering why they ran for the job. In the upcoming legislative session, they face a daunting task, brimming with political risk. Brownback’s “Kansas experiment” has brought the state budget to crisis. Kansas lacks the income to pay its bills — and not by a little. By hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of millions. The politically thankless task for lawmakers: Either restore revenue to meet obligations, or chop up education, highways, human services and public safety. Doing nothing will result in damaging service cuts by default. In the current, already halfcompleted fiscal year, the general fund has come up $350 million short, even after huge one-time transfers from the highway fund and emergency budget cuts to Medicaid providers and higher education. Most lawmakers will feel obligated to address that immedi-

Addressing the longterm structural problem in the Kansas budget must have the highest priority.”

ate, pressing problem before grappling with the much larger structural gap between income and expense in next year’s budget. But they should not proceed in that order. Addressing the long-term structural problem in the Kansas budget must have the highest priority. That may seem counterintuitive, but it’s a bit like the

safety instruction you hear from an airline attendant: “If the oxygen masks come down and you are traveling with a child, put your own mask on first; then attend to the child.” Stabilize the budget structure first, and then deal with the current fiscal year. Only financially awful alternatives exist to cure the $350 million shortfall. Lawmakers cannot logistically raise new revenue fast enough. So that leaves either sudden budget cuts concentrated at year’s end, or some kind of one-time patch. With the bank account empty and the highway fund tapped out, the “easy” one-time patches have already been used up, but insiders talk of selling something (tobacco settlement revenue, the turnpike), or paying bills late, or grabbing the unclaimed property of Kansas citizens, or somehow borrowing the money. One-time patches do not solve the real problem. Without a long-term solution in place, selling assets or borrow-

ing become just another hopeless component in the downward spiral of Kansas finances. But if lawmakers can muster the political will to put a longterm plan in place first, Kansas has hope for financial stability. Then a $350 million patch solution in the current year becomes a “bridge” to a more hopeful future, rather than a step into deeper crisis. Kansas simply must raise revenue to structurally balance the budget. Closing the LLC loophole alone will not fix the problem. Hopefully Kansans will give their legislators political breathing room to pass a broad revenue reform plan correcting the irresponsible decisions of the past. Otherwise, we’ll face damaging cuts to education and key services. Lawmakers, make it a happy new year for Kansas. End the ill-fated experiment and structurally fix the budget. Do it early in the legislative session. Do it quickly. — Duane Goossen formerly served for 12 years as Kansas budget director.

Obama’s final, most shameful, legacy moment “When the chips are down, I have Israel’s back.” — Barack Obama, AIPAC conference, March 4, 2012

Washington — The audience — overwhelmingly Jewish, passionately pro-Israel and supremely gullible — applauded wildly. Four years later — his last election behind him, with a month to go in office and with no need to fool Jew or gentile again — Obama took the measure of Israel’s back and slid a knife into it.

“

of Jerusalem becomes an international pariah, a potential outlaw. To say nothing of the soldiers of Israel’s citizen army. “Every pilot and every officer and every soldier,” said a confidant of Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas, “we are waiting for him at The Hague.” I.e., the International Criminal Court. Moreover, the resolution undermines the very foundation of a half-century of American Middle East policy. What becomes of “land for peace” if the territories Israel was to have traded for peace are, in advance, declared to be Palestinian land to which Israel has no claim? The peace parameters enunciated so ostentatiously by Secretary of State John Kerry on Wednesday are nearly identical to the Clinton parameters that Yasser Arafat was offered and rejected in 2000 and that Abbas was offered by Prime Minister Ehud Olmert in 2008. Abbas, too, walked away. Kerry mentioned none of this because it undermines his blame-Israel narrative. Yet Palestinian rejectionism works. The Security Council just declared the territories legally Palestinian — without the Palestinians having to concede anything, let alone peace. The administration claims a kind of passive innocence on

Moreover, the resolution undermines the very foundation of a half-century of American Middle East policy. What becomes of “land for peace” if the territories Israel was to have traded for peace are, in advance, declared to be Palestinian land to which Israel has no claim?” People don’t quite understand the damage done to Israel by the U.S. abstention that permitted passage of a Security Council resolution condemning Israel over settlements. The administration pretends this is nothing but a restatement of long-standing U.S. opposition to settlements. Nonsense. For the last 35 years, every administration, including a re-election-seeking Obama himself in 2011, has protected Israel with the U.S. veto because such a Security Council resolution gives immense legal ammunition to every boycotter, anti-Semite and zealous European prosecutor to penalize and punish Israelis.

the text of the resolution, as if it had come upon it at the last moment. We are to believe that the ostensible sponsors — New Zealand, Senegal, Malaysia and a Venezuela that cannot provide its own people with toilet paper, let alone food — had for months been sweating the details of Jewish housing in East Jerusalem. Nothing new here, protests deputy national security adviser Ben Rhodes: “When we see the facts on the ground, again deep into the West Bank, beyond the separation barrier, we feel compelled to speak up against those actions.” This is a deception. Everyone knows that remote outposts are not the issue. Under any peace, they will be swept away. Even the right-wing Defense Minister Avigdor Lieberman, who lives in one of these West Bank Settlements, has stated publicly that “I even agree to vacate my settlement if there really will be a two-state solution.” Where’s the obstacle to peace? A second category of settlement is the close-in blocs that border 1967 Israel. Here, too, we know in advance how these will be disposed of: They’ll become Israeli territory and, in exchange, Israel will swap over some of its land to a Palestinian state. Where’s the obstacle to peace here?

No mixing of editorial opinion with reporting of the news. l Safeguarding the rights of all citizens regardless of race, creed or economic stature. l Sympathy and understanding for all who are disadvantaged or oppressed. l Exposure of any dishonesty in public affairs. l Support of projects that make our community a better place to live. l

It’s the third category of “settlement” that is the most contentious and that Security Council resolution 2334 explicitly condemns: East Jerusalem. This is not just scandalous; it’s absurd. America acquiesces to a declaration that, as a matter of international law, the Jewish state has no claim on the Western Wall, the Temple Mount, indeed the entire Jewish Quarter of Jerusalem. They belong to Palestine. The Temple Mount is the most sacred site in all of Judaism. That it should be declared foreign to the Jewish people is as if the Security Council declared Mecca and Medina to be territory to which Islam has no claim. Such is the Orwellian universe Israel inhabits. At the very least, Obama should have insisted that any reference to East Jerusalem be dropped from the resolution or face a U.S. veto. Why did he not? It’s incomprehensible — except as a parting shot of personal revenge on Benjamin Netanyahu. Or perhaps as a revelation of a deep-seated antipathy to Israel that simply awaited a safe political interval for public expression. Another legacy moment for Barack Obama. And his most shameful. — Charles Krauthammer is a columnist for Washington Post Writers Group.

Gasp! Phew! Something left its stink in San Francisco Source of foul odor proves elusive Doug Stanglin @dstanglin USA TODAY

Air quality experts looking for the source of a “rotten egg” smell that has wafted over San Francisco for two days are investigating a wide-range of possibilities — including flaring incidents at a Chevron refinery, ships, landfills and wastewater treatment plants. “Once we determine the

source, we will pursue any and all enforcement actions available,” said Jack Broadbent, executive officer of the Bay Area Air Quality Management District. The bad odor emerged early Wednesday, sending authorities scurrying. Fire trucks even responded to the luxury Fairmont hotel after complaints. The odor, described as the smell of sulfur or rotten eggs, was reported around 2 a.m. Wednesday and again Thursday around midnight. It was not considered a health hazard. A Chevron spokesman confirmed to the San Francisco Chronicle that there had been a

flaring incident — a routine activity in which excess gas is burned off — but said its investigation at the Richmond facility showed it was not the source. The air quality district said Thursday it sent inspectors to the refinery to gather data. Investigators are analyzing wind and weather reports and have checked landfills, wastewater treatment plants and ships. Pacific Gas and Electric ruled out a gas leak. “Even though we’re saying this is not us, you should do the safest thing possible and make that call,” PG&E spokesperson Teresa Jimenez said, ABC7 reported.

The Russian hacking saga: How we got here The story of alleged Russian hacking aimed at influencing the U.S. election has all the makings of a blockbuster film — computer hackers, dueling presidents and accused spies. President Obama announced a series of sanctions against Russia on Thursday, and Russian President Vladmir Putin said Friday he wouldn’t retaliate, at least not yet. How did we get to this point?

JUNE 14, 2016

“The Washington Post” reports that Russian government hackers penetrated the DNC servers. The report says opposition files on Republican nominee Donald Trump and email and chat exchanges were compromised. The Russian government denies the allegations.

JULY 22, 2016

NEW VOCABULARY NEEDED

What the military would call “kinetic” attacks — such as bombs or airstrikes — are very different from this frightening new reality in which we seem to be “entering a world where things like the U.S. election can be substantially impacted by outside parties,” Rothenberg said. “I think we don’t even have terms for this yet,” he said. In a statement Friday, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov denied accusations by U.S. intelligence agencies that Russianbacked hackers stole, then leaked information in an attempt to affect the outcome of the U.S. presidential election. Though Russia’s actions have at times been called a cyberattack, they were actually a propaganda event that used cybermeans, said Bruce McConnell, vice president of the EastWest Institute, a non-partisan think-tank that focuses on international conflict resolution. “Russia’s actions diverted voter and candidate attention from the substantive issues and undermined confidence in the election process,” said McConnell. It may be impossible to know the full effect of Russia’s actions, but they highlight the need for rules of the road in cyberspace, he said. One new signpost on that road came Thursday when Obama amended a 2015 executive order for combating cyberattacks against critical infrastructure and commercial espionage. Before that, the election systems weren’t considered critical infrastructure. Obama added language that allows for sanctions for interfering with or undermining election processes or institutions. This is crucial, said Pamela

A special agent from the FBI calls the Democratic National Committee to inform it the FBI identified a Russian-linked cyberspy group in its network. The person who answered the call — a tech-support contractor — didn’t do much about the call because, he told “The New York Times,” he wasn’t sure whether it was real or a prank. The call was not made public until this month.

ALEXEI NIKOLSKY, EUROPEAN PRESSPHOTO AGENCY

President Obama, who met with Russian President Vladimir Putin in 2012, amended an order Thursday for combating cyberattacks to add elections as critical infrastructure.

“Russia’s actions diverted voter and candidate attention and undermined confidence in the election process.” Bruce McConnell, vice president of the EastWest Institute

Smith, president of Verified Voting, a non-partisan election security and watchdog organization. “Measures that impose sanctions on those who conduct cyberattacks and other forms of tampering against our elections are an important statement that we value our democratic processes,” she said. RAISING AWARENESS

Though much information about how and what U.S. intelligence agencies found will probably never be revealed for security reasons, the incident has pushed government agencies to provide more detailed information to help network defenders in the USA and abroad identify and disrupt malicious cyberactivities. The Department of Homeland

Security and FBI released a Joint Analysis Report (JAR) on Thursday that contains declassified technical information on Russian civilian and military intelligence services’ cyberactivity. Some of the specifics included: uInformation on computers around the world that Russian intelligence services have co-opted without the knowledge of their owners, allowing them to conduct malicious activity in a way that makes it difficult to trace back to Russia. In some cases, the cybersecurity community was aware of this infrastructure; in other cases, this information is newly declassified by the U.S. government. uNewly declassified data that will enable cybersecurity firms and other network defenders to identify malware that the Russian intelligence services use. Network defenders can use this information to identify and block malware, forcing the intelligence services to re-engineer it. uInformation on how Russian intelligence services typically conduct their activities. This information can help network defenders better identify new tactics or techniques that a malicious actor might deploy or detect and disrupt an intrusion.

This is the first time the government weighs in on the hacks.

Trump is elected president.

DEC. 9, 2016

Obama orders a review of foreign government attempts to sway elections. The White House says the review is “not an effort to challenge the outcome of the election.” “The Washington Post” reports that the CIA believes Russia hacked the election in an attempt to help Trump win. Trump breaks with intelligence officials in his response: “These are the same people that said Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass destruction. The election ended a long time ago in one of the biggest Electoral College victories in history. It’s now time to move on.”

WikiLeaks releases private emails from DNC officials days before the Democratic National Convention. The emails are from early 2016 and the primaries.

DEC. 16, 2016

The night before the Democratic convention, Florida Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz says she will step down as DNC chairwoman. The announcement follows the discovery of emails in the WikiLeaks trove that showed DNC staffers favoring former secretary of State Hillary Clinton over Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, despite the fact they were not supposed to pick favorites in the primary.

JULY 27, 2016

Members of Clinton’s campaign had accused Russia of the hack of DNC emails. Trump says it probably wasn’t Russia, but if it was, “I will tell you this, Russia, if you’re listening, I hope you’re able to find the 30,000 emails that are missing.” That was a reference to emails Clinton deemed personal and deleted from her private server before turning over official emails to the State Department. Critics accuse Trump of calling for a foreign government to hack an American.

SEPT. 26, 2016

During the first general election debate, Clinton brings up the hacking. Trump continues to express skepticism that Russia was behind it. “I mean, it could be Russia, but it could also be China. It could also be lots of other people. It also could be somebody sitting on their bed that weighs 400 pounds, OK?” he says.

OCT. 7, 2016

The Department of Homeland Security and Office of Director of National Intelligence say they are “confident that the Russian government directed the recent compromises of emails from U.S. persons and institutions, including from U.S. political organizations,” and the goal was to “interfere with the U.S. election process.”

Republican lawmakers announce that congressional committees will investigate the allegations made by the CIA. Obama says the hacks were initiated by the “highest levels of the Russian government.” He suggests he will retaliate.

DEC. 28, 2016

On reports of impending sanctions against Russia, Trump says, “I think we ought to get on with our lives.”

DEC. 29, 2016

Obama announces sanctions against Russian officials, including the expulsion of 35 Russian diplomats and the closing of Russian compounds in Maryland and New York on suspicion they were used for intelligence gathering. “These actions follow repeated private and public warnings that we have issued to the Russian government and are a necessary and appropriate response to efforts to harm U.S. interests in violation of established international norms of behavior,” Obama says in a statement. “It’s time for our country to move on to bigger and better things. Nevertheless, in the interest of our country and its great people, I will meet with leaders of the intelligence community next week in order to be updated on the facts of this situation,” President-elect Trump says. The Russian government vows retaliation.

DEC. 30, 2016

Putin announces that he won’t kick U.S. diplomats out of Russia. “We will not create problems for U.S. diplomats,” Putin says in a statement. “We will not expel anybody.” He goes a step further and invites children of these diplomats to his New Year’s Eve party in the Kremlin. Eliza Collins

BEEF BAN SKEWERS NON-HINDUS v CONTINUED FROM 1B

beef that his family later claimed was mutton, Modi took days to offer condolences, furthering a perception that he’s willing to turn a blind eye to Hindu radicals. In Mewat, a majority Muslim district, the recently formed Cow Protection Task Force heard rumors that street vendors were cooking their biryani with beef. Qureshi insisted he used only chicken and buffalo, which are not banned. Months later, the police lab has yet to publish findings from the seizures on whether the rice dishes contained the outlawed meat. Shabnam Hashmi, an activist at Act Now for Harmony & Democracy, a New Delhi-based human rights group, said the raids unfairly target non-Hindus amid an increasingly Hindu nationalist climate in India fostered by the Bharatiya Janata Party and its affiliated Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), a private volunteer organization criticized for its paramilitary characteristics. “This police unit is part of a design to target minorities and to convert India into a Hindu state,” she said. Bharatiya Janata Party spokesman Vijay Chauthaiwale, who is also an active RSS member, said the central government had nothing to do with the state law. “That is a local level policy,” he said,

When the police catch a trafficked cow, the driver faces charges, and the cow goes to a sanctuary known as gaushala. adding that he supported the law. “Personally, I am fine with these controls.” Bharti Arora, the head of the task force, said the law addresses cow smuggling that funds organized crime and terrorism. She denied the law targets Muslims. Rather, Haryana is a transit route for smugglers heading to neighboring Bangladesh, a largely Muslim country, she said. “This is not a Hindu-Muslim problem — even Hindus are into the smuggling of cows,” Arora said. When the police catch a trafficked cow, the driver faces

“The punishment for slaughtering a cow should be the same as for killing a man.” Prithvi Pal Arya, who runs a cow sanctuary

charges, and the cow goes to a sanctuary known as gaushala, like the farm Prithvi Pal Arya runs in Gazipur in the northern Indian state of Uttar Pradesh. He shelters 1,000 cows. These sanctuaries are part of a cow rescuing infrastructure set up by Hindu activists in northern India. “The punishment for

slaughtering a cow should be the same as for killing a man,” Arya said. The task force works with informants called gau rakshaks — or “cow protectors” — vigilantes who are increasingly criticized for their militancy. Arvind Swami of Varanasi, an ancient holy city on the Ganges, is a gau rakshak who hunts smugglers and operates bovine sanctuaries across northern India. When Swami hears about cow smugglers on the highway, he dons his bulletproof jacket, grabs a gun and drives off in pursuit. He said he has rescued 130 cows in his career. Human rights activist Hashmi said gau rakshaks have been around for decades. Since Modi was elected, the right-wing activists have become emboldened, she said. “The hatred has reached a level that you can even make an announcement from a temple, and a crowd will go and attack,” Hashmi said. Mohammad Sartaj, 32, the son of Akhlaq Sartaj, the man lynched in Dadri last year, said, “It looks like cow slaughter is more criminalized than human slaughter.” Authorities are investigating the alleged murder, which includes the son of a Bharatiya Janata Party politician as a prime suspect. “Isn’t it a human right to decide what you want to eat?” Mohammad Sartaj asked.

If you’re looking for someone or something to blame for the Dow’s recent falloff and failure to break through the 20,000 milestone, the Federal Reserve is at least in the mix. The Fed tossed some cold water on the post-election run-up in stocks a few weeks ago when it not only boosted interest rates as expected but forecast three rate hikes in 2017 instead of the two moves anticipated. Fed Chair Janet Yellen said President-elect Donald Trump’s proposal to beef up infrastructure spending and cut taxes “may have been a factor” for some policymakers. The plan could stoke faster inflation that the Fed is likely to temper by raising bor-

rowing costs. Yellen cited the jobless rate, which fell from 4.9% to 4.6% in November and could augur bigger wage and price increases next year. She downplayed the significance of the revised rate hike forecast. The median estimate of the 17 members of the Federal Open Market Committee doesn’t necessarily reflect what the panel will do, which depends on the economy and labor market next year, as well as inflation. What’s more, six committee members predicted no more than two rate increases next year. Yellen and other key Fed officials may well be among that group. The minutes of the Fed meeting Dec. 13-14, out next Wednesday, should provide a detailed look at the debate among Fed officials and their reasons for stepping up their rate hike forecasts.

Charter-NBC dispute could black out 17 million Sports fans might be denied Packers-Lions game and hockey Mike Snider @mikesnider USA TODAY

Nearly 17 million Charter Communications pay-TV customers nationwide — and about 1 million in New York — could lose NBCUniversal networks in a car-

riage dispute between the companies. Should the pay-TV provider and programmer not reach an agreement by Sunday, some Charter customers could miss a crucial Sunday Night Football game between the Green Bay Packers and Detroit Lions — the winner earns the NFC North crown — and possibly two outdoor hockey games, Sunday’s Centennial Classic between the Toronto Maple Leafs and Detroit Red Wings and Winter Classic featuring the St. Louis Blues and

RICHARD DREW, AP

Chicago Blackhawks on Monday, as well as Monday’s Tournament of Roses Parade. The blackout could result in a dropping of NBCUniversal net-

works such as Bravo and USA for Charter’s 16.9 million Spectrum pay-TV subscribers nationwide. Customers in cities such as New York, L.A. and Dallas-Fort Worth, where NBC owns the station, would lose the flagship NBC station. The two companies are at an impasse, the programmer says. “NBCUniversal values its partnership with Charter Spectrum, our third-largest distributor,” the company said in a statement. “Charter Spectrum has been unyielding in its demand for terms superior to those agreed to by the

rest of the industry, including larger distributors. Given this position, we feel the responsibility to inform viewers that Charter Spectrum may drop NBCUniversal’s networks at the end of the year, including NBC, Telemundo, USA, Bravo and hit shows including the #1 show on TV — Sunday Night Football, WWE, the Golden Globes, This Is Us and more.” Stamford, Conn.-based Charter declined comment, other than to note that a blackout would be due to the programmer not making its content available.

MAKING WAVES

Whatever 2016 may have brought elsewhere, to TV it brought an abundance of riches. There were more scripted shows this year than any one person could watch — and more good ones than any Top 10 list can contain. Still, tradition wins out, so here are USA TODAY TV critic Robert Bianco’s picks for the 10 best shows of 2016.

ADE JOHNSON, EUROPEAN PRESSPHOTO AGENCY

The investigation into George Michael’s sudden death will continue as the initial postmortem examination deemed the cause “inconclusive.” Thames Valley police shared the update Friday, telling the Associated Press that further tests must be conducted, though the results will “not be known for several weeks.” The pop icon’s death is being treated as “unexplained but not suspicious.” HOW WAS YOUR DAY? GOOD DAY CARRIE FISHER AND DEBBIE REYNOLDS FANS Fans are a bit closer to ‘Bright Lights.’ HBO announced Friday that the documentary, which loosely chronicles the lives of the mother-daughter duo, has been moved up to Jan. 7 (8 p.m. ET/PT).

BAD DAY RYAN SEACREST It was not a ‘Good Morning’ for the ‘Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve’ host, who was temporarily trapped in a Times Square elevator Friday on the way to a ‘Good Morning America’ interview. After being rescued by the New York City Fire Department, Seacrest jokingly told ‘GMA’ that he may take the stairs for Saturday’s telecast.

SHOW OF THE YEAR THE PEOPLE V. 1AMERICAN O.J. SIMPSON: CRIME STORY

(FX) A surprise, a revelation and — in the end — a healing gift, this miniseries took a story we thought we knew and showed us how little we understood. Tightly written and stunningly performed, particularly by Emmy winners Courtney B. Vance, Sarah Paulson and Sterling K. Brown, O.J. was more than a crackling courtroom drama. It was an exploration of the strains of the early 1990s and a humanizing story about those most affected by the event. TV coverage of the trial tended to turn Johnnie Cochran and Marcia Clark into buffoonish cartoons; how fitting it is that TV, with a huge assist from producer/director Ryan Murphy, Vance and Paulson, has turned them back into human beings.

8 THE NIGHT OF

(HBO) A tragedy with darkly comic overtones, this searing HBO series examined the losing battle waged by those swept into the criminal justice system to emerge with their lives and their dignity intact. Driven by great performances from Riz Ahmed and John Turturro, this adaptation of a British series never felt less than 100% American — to both our pride and dismay.

Anthony Hopkins is 79. Ben Kingsley is 73. Gabby Douglas is 21. Compiled by Jaleesa M. Jones.

2 ATLANTA

(FX) This dazzling tragicomedy was an artistic breakthrough for star, writer and creator Donald Glover and a welcome reminder that America has always been a more interesting and diverse country than TV sometimes lets on. Playful, brave and shockingly accomplished, Atlanta may be the first major series to treat poverty as its driving force and subject, rather than using it to set up a story about drugs, gangs and crime.

4 INSECURE

(HBO) In a year highlighted by terrific new talents, none shone much brighter than Issa Rae. As star and writer, she showed us the glories that await when smart, funny, humane and — in this case — profane new voices are given a chance to be heard.

6 WESTWORLD

(HBO) Well, that was ... something. What exactly was going on in this extremely well-acted mix of sci-fi thriller, conspiracy drama and rumination on the nature of storytelling is still up for debate. But at least it’s a show worth debating.

(Netflix) Come for the glittering excess in what is said to be one of the most expensive series ever made. Stay for Peter Morgan’s insightful script and a near flawless cast, led by Claire Foy as a young Queen Elizabeth II launching her record-setting reign.

10 SPEECHLESS

USA SNAPSHOTS©

Crowds at Disney World on New Year’s Eve last year were double that of a typical day, exploding by another

9 THE CROWN

THE AMERICANS

(FX) It isn’t often an already great series gets even better, so when that happens, we need to celebrate. Feeling ever more timely, this FX jewel is a family drama disguised as a spy story as the Cold War threatens to cause a country, and a family, to implode.

FULL FRONTAL WITH SAMANTHA BEE

(TBS) Seldom has righteous anger and a take-no-prisoners approach combined for better results. Unlike more namby-pamby comedians, Bee does not alter her act for universal appeal. But for those who came to love her, Full Frontal was the best thing to come out of this election season.

7 BLACK-ISH

(ABC) Broadcast’s best series, this comedy (like Speechless and Mom) is a throwback to the days when network sitcoms actually tried to reflect, comment upon and even improve the world around them. And it did so while being consistently funny, which is no easy task.

(ABC) Another example of the fine work the broadcast networks can still do when they set their minds and money to it, this gutsy comedy about a strong-willed mother fighting for her son with cerebral palsy is one of the funniest and most authentic shows on the air. And what a cast, led by a highenergy turn from Minnie Driver — making the most of her best TV role yet — and sweet, skillful and sometimes poignant performance from Micah Fowler.

Dear Annie: I’m fed up with my neighbors across the street. They are a family of four — with two kids who are about 4 and 6 years old. The mom is really the one who’s bothering me. Daytime is not a problem, as I’m at work. Nighttime is not a problem; the kids play on the trampoline in their front yard, and I actually smile sometimes seeing them. (Brings me back to those days of not having a care in the world. And what kids play outside these days anyway?) Morning, on the other hand, is becoming increasingly frustrating for me. You see, Mom has a habit of broadcasting their entire morning routine to the whole street. When trying to shuffle the kids out to the car for school,

she’s yelling from inside the house: “Augie, I SAID wash your hands and grab your lunch!’’ Once they’re in the driveway, she’s demanding, “Ava, NO! Not in the street! You’re going to get hit.’’ Her voice is high and shrill. It reminds me of an evil teacher I had in fourth grade. Strapping the kids in the car is a whole third ordeal. One time, her son locked the doors, so she couldn’t get in

Recalling the stars we lost in 2016 As 2016 dwindles down to its final hours, let’s look back at the television personalities, stars and producers who left us during the year. This year would see the deaths of two classic television ‘‘moms,’’ Doris Roberts of ‘‘Everybody Loves Raymond’’ and Florence Henderson of ‘‘The Brady Bunch.’’ We also lost quintessential TV ‘‘dad’’ Alan Thicke (’’Growing Pains’’), as well as William Schallert, the reassuring father (and uncle) on ‘‘The Patty Duke Show.’’ Patty Duke died in 2016 as well. T h i s year saw the passing of prolific producer Garry Marshall (’’Happy Days’’) as well as comedian Garry Shandling (’’The Larry Sanders Show’’). While not known as a producer or network executive, the Franciscan nun Mother Mary Angelica became a founding cornerstone of the Eternal Word Television Network (EWTN). The world of television news lost Morley Safer of ‘‘60 Minutes’’ and Gwen Ifill of ‘‘The PBS NewsHour.’’ Opinionated syndicated talk show host John McLaughlin died as well. Television sports lost some of its more colorful characters: Baseball announcer and ‘‘Today’’ fixture Joe Garagiola and TNT’s NBA courtside reporter Craig Sager. More than any other player, the late Arnold Palmer popularized golf on and off the course and the television set. ESPN’s John Saunders died in 2016 as well. Character actors we lost in 2016 included Pat Harrington Jr., the scheming handyman from ‘‘One Day at a Time,’’ and Abe Vigoda of ‘‘The Godfather,’’ who had a second act as Phil Fish on ‘‘Barney Miller.’’ Radio comedy legend Bob Elliott pretty much played himself on his son Chris’ Fox comedy ‘‘Get a Life.’’ It’s not easy standing out amid ‘‘Mob Wives,’’ but Angela ‘‘Big Ang’’ Raiola was up to the task. Theresa Saldana (’’Raging Bull’’ and ‘‘The Commish’’) died at 61. Let’s raise a glass to those we’ve lost and to the health and well-being of everybody who makes, watches (and even reviews) television in 2017. Tonight’s other highlights O Catch Syfy’s 22nd annual marathon of ‘‘The Twilight Zone’’ (5 a.m. through 3 a.m. Monday). O Kathie Lee Gifford and Hoda Kotb host ‘‘A Toast to 2016!’’ (7 p.m., NBC). O Ryan Seacrest hosts ‘‘Dick Clark’s Primetime New Year’s Rockin’ Eve’’ (7 p.m., 9 p.m. and 10:30 p.m., ABC).

the car. I can’t help but wonder whether he’s acting up to get a rise out of her (and I chuckle). This scene happens every morning around 7 a.m. — and even on Saturdays and Sundays! Though I do appreciate these free lessons on how NOT to parent my children, I’m literally tired of it, as it wakes me up and I can’t go back to sleep. And I don’t want to hear someone else’s business shouted up and down the block. A friend suggested I slip an anonymous note in their mailbox asking them to be mindful of the volume. Would that be rude? I don’t have kids yet, but I do sympathize with the challenge of being a mom. What should I do? — Nancy Across the Way

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS

For Saturday, Dec. 31: This year you open up to new ideas more readily than in the past. If you are single, you could meet someone from out of the blue. If you are attached, you might need to negotiate your financial concepts with your significant other. The stars show the kind of day you’ll have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult Aries (March 21-April 19) ++++ You are likely to fall into the role of “leader of the gang” today among your bevy of friends. Tonight: Spread cheer and well wishes. Taurus (April 20-May 20) +++++ Try to keep yourself from going overboard in all forms of celebration. Tonight: A male friend could get a little too cheery for your taste! Gemini (May 21-June 20) +++++ Be careful when you’re out, as a problem could easily occur. Tonight: Send well wishes to your favorite people. Cancer (June 21-July 22) ++++ You actually might wonder about someone’s source of information. Tonight: Be with a favorite person. Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) +++ You are the king or queen of the Zodiac, at least in your eyes. Tonight: Paint the town red. Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Dear Nancy: We have a tendency in our society to always blame the mom. Being a working mother to two young children is challenging. (I know the feeling.) So do try to cut her some slack. She may be a perfectly pleasant person most of the time. That being said, I might approach her in a polite way and let her know that her morning voice is noticeably loud and carries across the neighborhood. My guess is she’s in such a rush every morning that she never stops to realize she is screaming. She would probably appreciate the info.

++++ Follow your instincts about where and with whom you want to greet 2017. Tonight: Make it OK to curl up with a book. Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) +++++ No one knows how to orchestrate the perfect moment quite like you do. Be careful, as plans could backfire. Tonight: Let the party go on and on. Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) ++++ You are likely to opt to stay close to home. Friends and loved ones will continue to seek you out. Tonight: The action is at your pad. Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) ++++ You are unlikely to forget anyone, but remember old friends first. Tap into your inner child. Tonight: Greet the new year with a smile! Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) ++++ There is no reason to feel as if you have to splurge in order to bring in the new year. ITonight: Go along with the moment. Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) +++++ You understand much more about others than you might realize. Tonight: You are the leader of the gang. Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) ++++ Your smile goes a long way in creating much more of what you want. Not everyone is a mind reader. Tonight: Make sure you do what is best for you. — The astrological forecast should be read for entertainment only.

Tips for installing a remodel can light

nstalling a remodel type recessed light fixture is a snap, once you run the electrical wires to it.

Fix-It Chick

Step 1: Determine the desired location for the new recessed light fixture and use the template that came with the fixture to mark the mounting position. Step 2: Use a drill and hole saw to cut an opening into the ceiling for the new fixture. Step 3: With the power off, pull the electrical wires for the new fixture through the hole in the ceiling. Step 4: Cut back the

Linda Cottin wire insulation and strip off the plastic coating on all wires to expose one half inch of bare copper wire on each end. Step 5: Per the light fixture manufacturer’s instructions, open the cover of the fixture’s junction box.

Options

Amaranth Amaranth is an ancient crop that was overlooked for centuries and has had bouts of popularity with another recent rise. Both the greens and the grain can be eaten. The greens are reportedly similar to spinach with a milder flavor. The grain is high in protein, glutenfree and easy to cook. Cultivated amaranth is closely related to pigweed and grows about as easily. Like a weed, it can handle heat and drought and has few pest prob-

wires into one wire nut, push each of the white wires into another nut and push each of the ground wires into a third nut. If the fixture did not come with push type wire nuts, twist each set of matching wires together, twist on an appropriately sized wire nut and cover each connection with electrical tape.

Step 7: Attach a cable clamp to the knockout hole and insert the electrical wires into box through the cable clamp.

Step 9: Once the wires are securely attached together, carefully press the wires into the junction box.

Step 8: Use the push connection wire nuts that came with the fixture to connect the fixture wires to the electrical wires. Push each of the black

Step 11: Secure the junction box cover back into place. Step 12: Insert the junction box end of the light fixture into the hole in the ceiling, followed by the can portion of the fixture. Step 13: Per the manufacturer’s instructions, engage the locking tabs from the inside of the can to secure the light fixture into place.

Step 10: Pull the excess wire out through the knockout and secure the cable clamps onto the wires to hold them safely in place.

Step 14: If necessary, install the trim ring and light bulb into the fixture. Turn the power on and enjoy. — Have a home improvement question for Fix-It Chick? Email it to Linda Cottin at hardware@sunflower.com.

to mature and like kale have better flavor if harvested as a fall crop. For best results, start seeds indoors four to six weeks before your intended planting date in June or July (depending on the variety). Plan to harvest after the first light fall frost. Row cover (specialty lightweight fabric) may be needed to protect kalettes from insects over the summer. The plants are most similar to Brussels sprouts in care requirements.

Step 6: Choose the best position for the wire to enter the box and remove the knockout portion of the box. When installing more than one light fixture, remove a second knockout to accommodate the wires that will run to the next fixture.

Cucamelons lems. Amaranth is also grown and cultivated for its flowers, so select varieties that are marketed for their greens and grain rather than ornamental qualities. Plant amaranth after all chance of frost has passed and harvest tender new growth for greens throughout the season. Harvest seeds in fall according to varietal recommendations.

Rutabagas

Dwarf berry plants Brazelberries are a brand of dwarf berry plants that were selected based on their size and performance in containers. They offer dwarf, thornless raspberries and blackberries and five varieties of blueberries. Raspberries and blackberries may be old favorites in Kansas gardens, but the idea of growing dwarf thornless varieties on the patio is new. This is a great opportunity for gardeners who lack the space for a traditional berry patch.

This Pit Bull Terrier mix is looking for someone to help her continue learning how to be a prim and proper canine! Doris here has so much love to show you that you’ll wonder how you ever lived without her. Word on the street is that she’s great with kids and makes an amazing companion; she’s just what your family needs!

Toby is a four year old FlatCoated Retriever mix waiting for his forever family to adopt him! This handsome pooch would be happiest in a home where he is the only furry child and any human ones are older. He’s a loving lad but needs some patience with learning how to be gentle. He has a ton of energy and loves tennis balls, and would be happy to have a home where he can run and play in a yard as well as cuddle on the couch.

TUX

Cool, calm and collected are the best words to describe our feline friend Yorke. He’s a black Domestic Shorthair mix who is around 2 years of age. Hugs are all this laidback lad requires, and he’ll give you plenty if you come to visit!

Tux is a black and white Labrador Retriever mix who knows a few tricks. Ask him to shake, sit, or come and he just might! The lifestyle he is used to is one where his days are spent outdoors roaming acres of land. He will do best in a home with no cats and older children, and would love to live on a farm or somewhere with a lot of space for him to play.

Adopt 7 Days a Week! 11:30am-6pm RORY Rory, who is an orange tiger Domestic Shorthair, has been through a lot. She really could use some consistency in her life; change is not her friend, but once she settles in she’ll be your closet companion. Here’s two fun facts about this furry feline looking for her furrrever home: she has three legs and her adoption fee has been waived!

Mason sparks Jayhawks’ win By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

Fort Worth, Texas — Because he plays with such tenacity and never shies away from attacking the rim, it may have been hard to spot. But Kansas senior Frank Mason III flipped a switch a few minutes into Friday’s 86-80 victory over TCU that may have saved the Jayhawks. After watching his team miss 8 of its first 9 shots inside TCU’s jampacked Schollmaier Arena, Mason stopped reacting and started creating,

Lucas a force when needed

often lowering his head near midcourt and driving to the rim no matter who or what stood in his way. It didn’t always result in a basket. At least not right away. But it did change the way the Jayhawks played, transforming the nation’s thirdranked team from a flat, passive, holiday grinch into one of those friends that everyone has on New Year’s Eve — eager, excited and nearly impossible to stop. “It was big,” said KU

KANSAS GUARD LAGERALD VICK (2) and KU guard Devonté > JAYHAWKS, 2C Graham bump chests during a TCU timeout.

Fort Worth, Texas — Leave it to a senior in a time of need to deliver in a time of need. One such time arrived Friday night in Schollmaier Arena for Kansas center Landen Lucas. Freshman center Udoka Azubuike is out for the season after undergoing wrist surgery. Josh Jackson, the team’s leading rebounder heading into the night, had his quietest game as a Jayhawk and fouled out in 12 minutes of action. The four-guard lineup that Kansas employed for all but six minutes of the

Chiefs’ Houston ruled out for San Diego game By Dave Skretta AP Sports Writer

Kansas City, Mo. — The Chiefs ruled out Justin Houston for Sunday’s game in San Diego because of swelling in his surgically repaired left knee, throwing into question the four-time Pro Bowl pass rusher’s status for the playoffs. Kansas City also activated linebacker Justin March-Lillard from

injured reserve and waived defensive lineman David King on Friday. March-Lillard has been practicing for a couple of weeks after breaking his hand earlier this season, but coach Andy Reid said he is unlikely to play this week. Running back Spencer Ware is listed as questionable for the Chargers with bruised ribs. Houston was also inactive for last week’s

win over Denver, which clinched Kansas City’s postseason spot. But the Chiefs still can win the AFC West, earn a firstround bye and play a home playoff game by beating the Chargers on Sunday if division-leading Oakland also loses to the Broncos. Now, the Chiefs could be without several important players for an important matchup. “Listen, I thought the

guys had a good week,” Reid said Friday. “They came out in this nice windy weather that we had, and I thought prepared well. They understand what San Diego is all about and how explosive they are offensively. They have a young defense that is flying around. “We have a lot of respect for them as coaches and players.” Houston had surgery

to repair the ACL in his knee in February, after the team struggled to determine the extent of the injury late last season. He didn’t make his season debut until Nov. 20 against Tampa Bay and had three sacks the following week in Denver, with a fourth sack the next week in Atlanta. But the standout linebacker was held in check by Oakland and

virtually disappeared a couple weeks ago against Tennessee, the first obvious sign that Houston’s knee was bothering him. “I think we just take it day-by-day and we just see,” Reid said earlier this week. “I know how these things work. I’ve been there and I know it. I think it’s just a matter of calming it down a bit. I think if we just take it day-by-day we’ll be good to go.”

For him, some of those shots that might look tough are actually pretty good and that’s big for us.” For the game, Mason finished — yet again — with a team-high 22 points, seven assists and two steals in 35 minutes. As much as that pleased KU coach Bill Self, the Jayhawks’ leader was far more concerned about his team’s poor defensive play — even singling out poor efforts by Mason and junior Devonté Graham — than he was impressed by its offensive production. TCU shot 44 percent for the game, 39 percent from 3-point range, and featured a lineup full of players who got to the rim whenever they wanted throughout most of the night. “We’re kidding ourselves if we think we can

play that little and get by,” Self said. “We got lucky tonight.... The thing we’ve always hung our hat on, we’re just not very good at yet. And we’ve got to improve on that.” As much as the Jayhawks left room to improve on defense, it did not really matter who was asked to deliver offensively in this one once the Jayhawks (12-1 overall, 1-0 Big 12) got going. And nearly every Jayhawk did at one point or another. Kansas led 48-44 at the half and kept that margin for most of the second half. After occasionally pushing the lead to six or seven and seeing TCU trim it back to three or four, it seemed as if a different Jayhawk played the role of peacekeeper each time. First was Lucas, whose monster night of 15 points and a career-high 17 rebounds, included a huge rebound of his own miss with just under six minutes to play that pushed the KU lead from 69-66 to 71-66. A few minutes later, Carlton Bragg Jr., who played big on the boards but still looked off offensively, scored one of his

two buckets on a strong left-handed finish to push KU’s lead from two possessions (78-72) to three with 3:23 to play. Even at that, TCU never quit. After a couple of careless Kansas possessions, the Horned Frogs trimmed to the KU lead to 80-76 with just more than 2:00 to play. But there, again, was another Jayhawk to stem the tide. This time it was Graham, whose driving bucket with the shot clock winding down kissed off the glass and in just as he hit the deck. “We definitely need that moving forward, different guys stepping up,” Mason said. “That’ll be great for our team.” Appropriately, Mason delivered the final blow, floating a soft runner toward the rim with 1:23 to play that pushed the Kansas lead back to eight. Perhaps most impressive about this Kansas victory — its 26th consecutive win in a conference opener and ninth straight win over TCU — was the fact that the Jayhawks did nearly all of it without the services of their secondleading scorer. Kansas freshman Josh Jackson struggled in the

early going, turning it over in transition and misfiring on his first three shots, with none really even coming close despite Jackson attacking the rim as he has done so often early in games this season. Jackson played just eight minutes in the first half and saw his frustrations carry over into the second half. After missing his first couple of shots after the break, Jackson was whistled for his third foul on an over-the-back call with 18:07 to play. Self and Jackson erupted with disagreement and the KU freshman compounded the mistake by getting his fourth foul via technical. Jackson played just 12 minutes and scored four points on 2-of-8 shooting. It wasn’t just Jackson who struggled in the early going. The Jayhawks did not score until the 16:44 mark and trailed by 10 seven minutes into the game. TCU, meanwhile, was red-hot in the early going, hitting eight of its first 14 shots, including 4-of-6 from 3-point range to build that double-digit lead. The Jayhawks tied the game almost as quickly as the Horned Frogs (11-2)

built the 10-point lead, ripping off a stretch of eight consecutive makes, the last coming on a sweet, step-back 3-pointer by Sviatoslav Mykhailiuk, to give Kansas its first lead of the game (2928) with 7:24 to play in the first half. “We knew we had to turn something around,” Lucas said. “I think we got some good momentum and we felt the momentum switch back to us and we knew that we were back in it and we just had to go from there.” After Mykhailiuk’s three, the Jayhawks never trailed again on their way to a hard-fought, road win to open their chase toward a 13th consecutive Big 12 regular season title. “We can complain that we didn’t play very well,” Self said. “But there’s a reason why we didn’t. I think TCU’s good. They were quicker than us, played smarter than us and we made enough shots where our mistakes didn’t cost us.” Kansas returns to the floor Tuesday, when Kansas State comes to Allen Fieldhouse for the first of two Sunflower State clashes this season. Tipoff is set for 8 p.m.

THE KANSAS BENCH ERUPTS AFTER A 3-POINTER BY KU GUARD SVIATOSLAV MYKHAILIUK late in the second half of the Jayhawks’ 86-80 victory over TCU in their Big 12 opener Friday night in Fort Worth, Texas.

NOTEBOOK

Jackson ‘lost composure’ By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

Fort Worth, Texas — Fort Worth has never been confused for Honolulu, but, in the eyes of Kansas freshman Josh Jackson, they might as well be the same city. For the first time since struggling mightily in the Jayhawks’ seasonopening loss to Indiana in Hawaii, Kansas freshman Josh Jackson battled foul trouble and his emotions during the Jayhawks’ 8680 victory over TCU on Friday at Schollmaier Arena in the Big 12 opener for both teams. After picking up two first-half fouls and playing just eight minutes in the opening half, Jackson was whistled for his third foul on an over-the-back call, 1:54 into the second half. From there, KU’s second-leading scorer, who finished with just four points on 2-of-8 shooting in 12 minutes, earned his fourth foul without a second ticking off the clock. It came when Jackson reacted with frustration to foul No. 3 and slammed the ball down onto the floor after the whistle blew. “Just didn’t play smart, I think,” Kansas head coach Bill Self said of Jackson. “Frustrated, not playing well, and then didn’t play very smart.” As for the technical, Self said he hoped the momentary loss of control was the last for his talented freshman. “I didn’t really see it, so he may have deserved it, he may have not,” Self said. “From what I was told, he probably did. But the whole thing is, he put himself in that position. You’ve gotta put the team first and, in that moment, he lost his composure and didn’t. He’s gotta learn. This is the second time that’s happened this year.”

Free throws finally free Entering the game shooting 59 percent from the free-throw line, Kansas knocked down 20 of 25 in the six-point victory, good for 80 percent and a much-needed break

from their struggles at the line. “It’s good,” Self said of his team’s night at the charity stripe. “The guys that really haven’t shot ’em well for us, they didn’t attempt any tonight.” Senior guard Frank Mason III led the way by hitting 9 of 10 and Devonté Graham and Lagerald Vick each made all four they attempted. Senior forward Landen Lucas, who uncharacteristically made just 1 of 3, said seeing

matches was a regular occurrence, a couple of Kansas volleyball players made the short drive from their hometowns to root on the Kansas basketball team. All-Americans Ainise Havili, whose family lives 15 minutes from TCU’s campus, and Kelsie Payne, who grew up in Austin, were in attendance, wearing their crimson and blue and Faces in the crowd standing up and cheering While having basket- for their friends on the ball players at their home floor.

the free throws fall was a huge relief. “It was good,” he said, sounding eerily similar to Self. “It’s something we have been working on in practice and we know we’ve gotta get better at it.”

Vick returns Playing against his former AAU teammate, TCU guard Jaylen Fisher, Kansas sophomore Vick scored 17 points on 5-of11 shooting in 34 minutes to help Kansas pull out

Friday’s road victory. Vick’s hot night, which included a dozen points in 16 first-half minutes, was the first of its kind in nearly a month for the one-time starter, who entered Friday night having scored just 21 points in his previous four games combined. “He’s been laboring a little bit,” Self said. “And, yeah, I think he was due.” Added Vick, when asked if he needed a strong showing to get his confidence back: “Yeah,

definitely. It helped me get another rhythm going for the rest of the season.” As for his showdown with Fisher, Vick smiled when asked about it but said it was not in either player’s nature to talk too much trash. “No, not really,” he said. “We said ‘what’s up’ a couple plays but not too much.”
