Suspended police officers’ names not released

By George Diepenbrock gdiepenbrock@ljworld.com

One day after Lawrence city officials confirmed that two police officers were suspended related to an investigation into the dismissal of traffic tickets in exchange for Kansas University basketball

Officials say identities will be given to ‘appropriate parties’ tickets, the city’s attorney said it would notify appropriate parties in the judicial system about the identity of the individuals involved.

“The city complies with its obligation to report informa-

tion to the parties that are entitled to the information,” city attorney Toni Wheeler said Friday. “The public should have confidence in our compliance with those obligations.”

City officials have not publicly released the names of the two officers or whether they are suspended with or without pay, saying it is a personnel matter. The officers were suspended following an inves-

tigation by the FBI in which no criminal charges were filed, but Police Chief Tarik Khatib said there was an internal investigation because it Please see POLICE, page 2A Khatib

legal status that would allow them to work in Kansas industries facing labor shortages.

Senate Democratic Leader Anthony Hensley of Topeka and Davis said they believed if the Legislature does approve any immigration-related bill, it will be a measure that would require use of the federal database E-Verify to check on the citizenship status of government employees and contractors.

O’Neal said the complexities of illegal immigration make it difficult to come up with a consensus. “What may work in eastern Kansas,” he said, “may not work in western Kansas.”

Ford CEO and president Alan Mulally will be the featured speaker at Kansas University’s commencement this year, breaking a long trend of having chancellors deliver the KU address to graduates.

Though Chancellor Bernadette Gray-Little will still address KU’s graduates during the ceremony in a “farewell to the Class of 2012,” Mulally will be the featured speaker.

“KU has educated countless individuals who have gone on to become world-renowned leaders. As they walk down the Hill and into the world, it’s fitting for graduates to hear from one of those leaders, Alan Mulally, who after earning two KU degrees has gone on to do great things,” Ford CEO Alan G r a y - L i t t l e Mulally has two said in a writ- degrees from ten state- KU.

He has been CEO and president of Ford since 2006, before which he was executive vice president of The Boeing Co. and president and chief executive officer of Boeing Commercial Airplanes.

Mulally is one of four honorary degree recipients who will be recognized during the commencement ceremony. The others are former Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation chair Sheila Bair, former Senate Majority Leader Robert Dole and composer Kirke L. Mechem.

Susan Kemper is a distinguished professor of psychology who served as the chairwoman of the committee that vetted nominations for honorary degree recipients. She said she was pleased with the selection of Mulally to speak.

“It was the chancellor’s choice, but how could she have gone wrong?” Kemper said.

KU is accepting nominations for its next set of honorary degree recipients, and a link is available on the chancellor’s website.

Kobach-supported immigration bills are probably stalled, Kansas leaders say

By Scott Rothschild srothschild@ljworld.com

TOPEKA — After four days of emotional hearings, legislative leaders said several proposed immigration bills supported by Secretary of State Kris Kobach are probably dead.

“I don’t sense the support in the Senate for that kind of legislation,” said Senate President Steve Morris, R-Hugoton.

House Speaker Mike O’Neal, R-Hutchinson, said, “I don’t have a burning desire to address immigration this year.”

O’Neal said he doesn’t want to pass a law that guarantees putting the state in litigation “just for political expediency so somebody can have a good vote.”

House Democratic

Leader Paul Davis of Lawrence said the more people learn about the effects of Kobach similar Kobach laws in Arizona and Alabama “the more people shy away from the direction he wants to go.”

Kobach was a leading force in passage of Senate Bill 1070 in Arizona, which would require police check the legal status of anyone they have stopped and suspect may be an illegal immigrant.

That part of the law is being challenged in court.

He also helped pass a law in Alabama that goes further by requiring public schools determine

the citizenship status of students and making it a crime to knowingly rent housing to an illegal immigrant.

Kobach has urged approval of similar bills in Kansas. “Unless Kansas acts, we will become the No. 1 destination for illegal aliens in the Midwest,” he said.

Several business and religious leaders lined up in opposition. They said the bills would lead to racial profiling, and make the state less safe because undocumented workers would be unwilling to volunteer information to police about crime activity for fear they would be deported.

Morris, however, said there is quite a bit of support for a bill that would allow some undocumented workers to apply for a

Band member Colin Mahoney praised West’s “great, huge stage presence” during the parade as well as the loose-collective feel to the group as two things that made it fun.

“It’s punk.”

D.A. planning no charges on abortion records shredding

By John Hanna Associated Press

TOPEKA — An outside investigation has determined that the Kansas attorney general’s office didn’t shred documents from a Planned Parenthood clinic when it destroyed abortion records in April 2009, raising questions about another prosecutor’s statements that had prompted the dismissal of some criminal charges against the clinic.

None of the destroyed documents was “connected in any way” with Planned Parenthood, which performs abortions at its clinic in the Kansas City suburb of O v e r l a n d COURTS Park, Shawnee County District Attorney Chad Taylor said Friday. The attorney general’s office asked the Shawnee County sheriff’s office to investigate the shredding and turn its findings over to Taylor.

The request came after another prosecutor, Johnson County District Attorney Steve Howe, told a judge last fall that the attorney general’s office destroyed documents it had from Planned Parenthood, hindering the prosecution of its clinic. In November, the judge dismissed 49 of 107 charges against the clinic, including the most serious ones that accused it of falsifying reports to the state on abortions it performed in 2003.

Howe didn’t back away from those statements Friday, saying that despite whatever Taylor said, the records in the attorney general’s possession that could have been used in prosecuting the clinic are “missing.”

“I disagree with some

of his factual assertions,” Howe said. “To me, it doesn’t change anything.”

Taylor said boxes of documents were destroyed by the attorney general’s office in April 2009, but they were all part of files involving the unsuccessful — and closed — prosecution of another abortion provider, the late Dr. George Tiller of Wichita. Taylor said he won’t file criminal charges over the shredding, which he said occurred “in the same fashion” as it would have for any case resulting in a not-guilty verdict.

Taylor said the investigation examined the actions of employees at the attorney general’s office, focusing in particular on former Assistant Attorney General Barry Disney, who handled Tiller’s prosecution.

And Disney said: “I hope that others respect the decision that this independent investigation made and not politicize it.”

Taylor wouldn’t comment about Howe’s past statements.

Attorney General Derek Schmidt, who sought the outside investigation because the shredding occurred under his predecessor, said only that he appreciated investigators’ work.

Planned Parenthood officials, who’ve maintained that the clinic did not break the law, also had expressed confidence that state officials committed no wrongdoing and said it’s grossly unfair to suggest a conspiracy. Pedro Irigonegaray, a Topeka attorney representing the clinic, called the idea “a fantasy” designed to distract attention from a case Howe’s office was bound to lose.

“They needed somewhere else to put the blame, rather than accept the blame for an incompetent prosecution,” he said.

Explosives in Capitol incident were fireworks “

We don’t want to ever miss one or TOPEKA — Explosives ignore one because found in a pickup truck that’s when something parked near the Kansas unthinkable happens.”

By John Hanna

Associated Press

Capitol earlier this week were illegal homemade fireworks, the state Highway Patrol said Friday, but it still promised to ask the local prosecutor to file criminal charges against the truck’s owner.

The Capitol Police, overseen by the highway patrol, had described several items found in the pickup as “improvised explosive devices,” or homemade bombs. Officers detained the pickup’s owner Wednesday, and authorities questioned him, searched his home and seized items. Ultimately, he was released from custody.

It was one of two incidents involving potential threats to the Statehouse on the same day, but authorities said they were unrelated. In the other incident, a 37-year-old man was arrested and jailed

appeared the city’s gratuity policy had been violated.

City Manager David Corliss said the person whose speeding tickets were fixed is serving time in federal prison related to a broader KU ticket scandal from 2005 to 2010 after four Kansas Athletics Inc. employees and one department consultant pleaded guilty in the $2 million cash-for-tickets scam.

A Lawrence defense attorney said Friday that he was advising his clients not to enter a plea in pending cases in which a Lawrence police officer is a witness until the officers are identified.

“The fact that these officers engaged in dishonest conduct should be disclosed to the court because the court ultimately will have to determine the amount of credibility given to these officers’ testimony,” defense attorney Branden Bell said. “And the fact that these officers abandoned their duty to the public for their own personal gain is something that the court should be made aware of.”

Bell said he has sent a letter to Douglas County District Attorney Charles Branson arguing that the officers’ identities should be disclosed. Bell said he planned to send the same letter to Jerry Little, the supervising prosecutor in Lawrence Municipal Court. Otherwise he planned to file court motions in his pending cases making a similar argument.

“The state has to turn over evidence of dishonesty of its witnesses to a defendant,” Bell said.

Branson, whose office prosecutes all felony cases in the city, said Friday that

— Capitol Police spokesman Patrick Saleh for what the Capitol Police said was a threatening phone call to Gov. Sam Brownback’s office.

The Highway Patrol’s announcement came after Shawnee County District Attorney Chad Taylor met for about 90 minutes with representatives of local, federal and state law enforcement agencies, including the patrol. Authorities aren’t seeking charges in federal court, leaving any potential prosecution of the pickup’s owner to Taylor’s office.

The patrol said its representatives would meet with Taylor next week about possible charges.

“Any suspicious vehicle, we always investiBell’s request was premature. Branson said the police department would provide formal notification about the recent investigation to his office.

“I expect that to be coming soon,” Branson said. “At that time we will go through our process of trying to identify what, if any, cases those officers were on and determine what notification needs to take place.”

He said generally if officers are no longer employed with the department because of some type of investigation into their conduct, they become unavailable as a witness. Then prosecutors must examine all cases filed and likely dismiss ones in which the officer’s testimony would be most crucial.

Also, prosecutors would be required to notify the defense about issues with an officer if they proceed with a case.

“We have an ongoing obligation to turn over anything that would be exculpatory in any case,” Branson said.

Mary Kreiner Ramirez, a Washburn University law professor, said typically when police officers testify in a case, jurors tend to give them a lot of credibility because of their position.

“But if you found out that they were willing to not pursue their crimefighting responsibility for the benefit of tickets, which is essentially accepting bribes, then that might change your opinion of the person and go to the weight of what they’re saying,” said Ramirez, a former federal prosecutor.

Wheeler said prosecutors have a duty under U.S. Supreme Court precedent to disclose to defendants certain evidence, including any potential impeachment evidence of the prosecution’s wit-

gate fully,” said Capitol Police spokesman Patrick Saleh. “We don’t want to ever miss one or ignore one because that’s when something unthinkable happens.”

Officers found the pickup in the parking lot outside the Kansas Judicial Center, south of the Statehouse. They detained the owner in an underground tunnel that links the Statehouse to a nearby building that houses the offices of state agencies and legislators.

The pickup truck incident and the phoned-in threat to Brownback’s office came the same day a Kansas House committee opened three days of hearings on several bills designed to crack down on illegal immigration.

Later, several hundred people rallied outside the Statehouse to protest such policies and others pursued by Brownback and his fellow Republicans.

However, authorities said neither incident was connected to the rally. nesses. She said the police department would provide prosecutors with the names of any officers who might fall under that “at the appropriate time, in the appropriate manner.”

“The city complies with and will continue to abide by all state and federal discovery and disclosure requirements,” she said.

While acknowledging the fixed speeding tickets Thursday, city officials did leave several questions unanswered. Both Khatib and Corliss confirmed “several” members of the department were involved in the dismissal of the tickets, although they contended one individual orchestrated the matter. They did not provide details about the number of traffic tickets dismissed and said they were uncertain how long the ticket-fixing activity occurred other than over a number of years.

Khatib, who was promoted to police chief in February 2011, received an anonymous letter in May 2011 about the allegations, and Corliss later referred the matter to federal authorities for an investigation. Corliss also did not provide the name of the now imprisoned individual who provided the tickets in exchanged for the dismissed speeding tickets.

Mayor Aron Cromwell said one of the suspended officers orchestrated the dismissal of the tickets, while the other had knowledge of the activity and did not step forward. Cromwell said while it was Khatib’s decision, it was likely the officer leading the activity will be removed from the department.

BRIEFLY 2nd KCK man pleads guilty in 2008 robbery A 23-year-old Kansas City, Kan., man pleaded guilty Friday to robbery and aggravated assault for his role in a 2008 west Lawrence robbery.

Christopher J. Jackson admitted he stole a safe in the robbery and also used a gun to scare or intimidate a woman in the house the morning of Dec. 3, 2008.

He was accused of taking part with others in the robbery of an alleged drug dealer COURTS who lived at a home in the 3400 block of August Drive.

Prosecutors dismissed an aggravated burglary and misdemeanor theft charge he faced.

Defense attorney John Kerns said Jackson would not request probation in the case and that he was expected to be ordered to register as a violent offender because a firearm was used in the robbery.

He is the second Kansas City, Kan., man to enter a plea in the case after John T. Words, 21, pleaded no contest to robbery and aggravated assault. Prosecutors said there is a third suspect in the case, and Kerns said Jackson had agreed to give a statement to police that would include the name of the third suspect.

District Judge Kay Huff told Jackson that at his April sentencing he will face anywhere from 31 months to 136 months in prison on the robbery conviction, depending on his criminal history.

Attorneys will recommend another 11- to 13-month sentence for aggravated assault to run concurrent to the robbery sentence.

Koch brothers release emailed threats WICHITA (AP) — Charles Koch, the billionaire industrialist who has funneled millions of dollars into conservative causes and candidates, says he and his brother have been getting death threats and hate messages in recent months.

The comments from the head of Koch Industries, one of the nation’s largest privately held companies, came in a rare interview Thursday on the eve of a threeday protest dubbed “Occupy Koch Town,” which is expected to draw hundreds of activists up-

set with the billionaire brothers’ influence on politics and government policies on climate and the environment.

“We are under attack from various directions, both with threats of violence against us personally, and with threats of attacks on our businesses,” Koch told The Wichita Eagle on Thursday.

Among some of the emails released was one saying, “The Koch brothers will DIE!!!!!” ‘‘Choose your expiration Date, Brothers ...” another said. “I hope you all DIE,” one said last year.

Wichita Police Lt. Doug Nolte said Friday that the last reports the department had on file from Koch were in 2010 involving a complaint about someone putting signs on his property and a 2009 arrest for trespassing at his house.

Koch Industries general counsel Mark Holden told The Associated Press that the death threats were reported to the FBI because they crossed state lines. One involved a telephone call last year from California in which the caller threatened to

put a bullet in the heads of both Koch brothers. Others involved online postings advocating the Kochs’ murder.

An FBI spokeswoman did not immediately return a call for comment.

Koch said he has merely exercised his free speech rights in taking political positions and supporting causes.

Local survey looks at economic development attitudes

By Dolph C. Simons Jr.

This past week, a diverse group of Lawrence residents was interviewed by officials of a Denver-based company to gather input about economic and industrial development. All interviews were a one-on-one format with the responses and opinions not being attributed to particular individuals.

The study or interview project is being funded by the Lawrence Chamber of Commerce for the purpose of trying to get a better understanding of how Lawrence, through city and county governments, the Chamber of Commerce and the community as a whole can do a better job of encouraging economic growth for the betterment of the city and its residents.

According to chamber staffers, those interviewed represented a cross-section of local residents, not just a group of business advocates.

During the interviews, par-

ticipants were asked their thoughts about the effectiveness or the importance of economic and industrial development efforts in Lawrence. At the end of the interview, participants were given a list of 16 topics, actions or factors such as retaining business, the arts, developing an increased tax base, international business, research capabilities and university relations. Each participant also was given 10 poker chips, each representing $100 or $1,000 or more, and asked to allocate these chips among the topics on the list in a way he or she thought would be most effective in improving the city’s quest to improve economic growth in the community.

At the same time these interviews were taking place, local developers of a proposed multistory hotel-apartment building at the southeast corner of Ninth and New Hampshire were turned down by the city’s Historic Resources Commission.

Now the project will likely go to the Lawrence City Commission, which will have the final say on the plan.

These days most cities would be delighted to have a handsome, well-built multistory hotel-apartment facility built in their downtown to attract residents and shoppers.

COMMENTARY But in Lawrence, most every major development, no matter where it is located, is sure to face all kinds of opposition from various groups. Lawrence has the unfortunate reputation of being an extremely difficult community — one of the worst — in which to build or be an entrepreneur.

In years past, the Moore family of Lawrence did a great job of providing low-cost housing, but they encountered major opposition and detractors. The late

Bob Billings did a great job for the city with his Alvamar development, but he also faced massive opposition to many of his ideas and plans. Duane Schwada and the Moores had to battle to get Meadowbrook Apartments built.

In recent years, Doug Compton has made a major positive impact on the city, as well as in many other states, but he, too, faces much opposition.

The fact is, entrepreneurs in Lawrence, dreamers with a desire to do something better than just average, face a tough challenge.

People complain about not having enough retail business in Lawrence to hold and attract shoppers. They see sales and tax dollars slipping away to nearby Johnson County or the Legends in Wyandotte County. And yet, the city turns down one of the country’s major home supply retailers, Lowe’s, which would have created several hundred construc-

tion jobs and several hundred ongoing jobs while generating major tax dollars and attracting shoppers to help strengthen the city’s retail base.

Lawrence is an attractive site for all kinds of business and industry and it’s a great place to live. However, in reality, it is a tough, tough, almost impossible place to try to build.

It is hoped the Denver interviewers will end up with a timely, accurate and well-documented picture of the attitudes of Lawrence residents relative to the importance or lack of importance of economic development.

If the sentiment is strongly in favor of sound, economic development and the need to change Lawrence’s national reputation as being negative and less than helpful to those interested in building in Lawrence, it is hoped city officials will get the message and have the courage to do something to improve the situation.

KANSAS CITY, MO. — After some convincing, the U.S. health care industry has been moving more toward online record keeping, thanks in part to about $3 billion in federal stimulus funds, Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius said Friday.

Sebelius said nearly 2,000 hospitals and more than 41,000 doctors have re- Sebelius ceived a share of the $3.1 billion in incentive payments for health information technology. The funds, administered through Medicare and Medicaid, were made available under the 2009 federal Recovery Act. “We have in our health care system an industry that is 17 percent of our GDP in this country, and yet up until recently has relied on paper files,” Sebelius said during a roundtable discussion with health information technology professionals and health care providers at the Metropolitan Community College-Penn Val-

ley Health Science Institute in Kansas City.

“But the health system has been particularly resistant to technology changes,” she said. “So what we’re talking about is really a transformational change that’s under way.”

The percentage of U.S. hospitals that have adopted electronic health records systems has gone from 16 percent in 2009 to 35 percent in 2011, Sebelius said. The administration has also created a nationwide network of 62 regional centers to provide technical guidance and resources to help health care providers participate in the programs, particularly small medical practices and smaller hospitals that “don’t have big IT departments,” she said Health care informational technology jobs are a growing employment sector, and are expected to increase by 20 percent from 2008 to 2018, she said.

“What we know, health information technology can really improve health care. It can help doctors and nurses and the health team coordinate care,” she said. “Electronic records can help reduce costs, cut out paperwork, (and) provide for more continuity along the way.”

ON THE RECORD REPORT

INJURY ACCIDENT • A motorcycle rider was transported Friday to Lawrence Memorial Hospital from Baldwin City after losing control his motorcycle while attempting to avoid hitting another vehicle.

Baldwin City police Sgt. Mike Underwood said the motorcyclist was traveling north on Sixth Street shortly before noon Friday when a vehicle pulled out of Baldwin Self Storage, 201 N. Sixth St., to make a northbound turn.

Although the driver of the vehicle stopped, the motorcyclist locked up his brakes to avoid a collision, losing control and tumbling from

the motorcycle.

Underwood said the motorcyclist had “very minor” injuries but was transported to LMH for treatment. He would release no other information Friday afternoon.

• A 39-year-old woman was transported to Lawrence Memorial Hospital after an accident at Connecticut and 13th streets Friday morning. Lawrence police spokeswoman Kim Murphree said the woman had nonlife-threatening injuries. The other driver, a 68-year-old, was given a traffic citation for causing the accident.

The Journal-World does not print accounts of all police reports filed. The newspaper generally reports: • Burglaries, only with a loss of $1,000 or more, unless there are unusual circumstances. To protect victims, we generally don’t identify them by name.

• The names and circumstances of people arrested, only after they are charged.

• Assaults and batteries, only if major injuries are reported.

• Holdups and robberies.

The judge in the water case, U.S. District Judge Julie Robinson, is chairwoman of the Court Administration and Case Management Committee, which is running the three-year pilot involving more than 100 U.S. District Court judges. In Kansas, District Court Judges Kathryn Vratil, J. Thomas Marten, Carlos Murguia, Eric Melgren and Robinson are taking part.

Civil bench and jury trials, as well as civil motions hearings will be recorded and available online for viewing or downloading under the project approved by the Judicial Conference of the United States in March 2011.

In the case before the court Thursday, a rural water district sued the city of Eudora over the city’s 2007 annexation of part of the water district, alleging federal statutes protected the district from the city’s annexation.

Robinson didn’t make a ruling Thursday.

The camera project has ground rules, including:

Only civil cases will be videotaped because a federal rule prohibits criminal cases from being photographed;

The plaintiff, defendant and judge must agree to the videotaping;

The camera can be turned off if a witness is concerned about being videotaped;

No still photographs will be shot:

GOP must make case against Obamacare WASHINGTON — Give him points for cleverness. President Obama’s birth control “accommodation” was as politically successful as it was morally meaningless. It was nothing but an accounting trick that still forces Catholic (and other religious) institutions to provide medical insurance that guarantees free birth control, tubal ligation and morning-after abortifacients — all of which violate church doctrine on the sanctity of life.

The trick is that these birth control/abortion services will supposedly be provided independently and free of charge by the religious institution’s insurance company. But this changes none of the moral calculus. Holy Cross Hospital, for example, is still required by law to engage an insurance company that is required by law to provide these doctrinally proscribed services to all Holy Cross employees.

Nonetheless, the accounting device worked politically. It took only a handful of compliant Catholic groups — Obamacare cheerleaders dying to return to the fold — to hail the alleged compromise, and hand Obama a major political victory.

Before, Obama’s coalition had been split. His birth control mandate was fiercely opposed by such stalwart friends as former Virginia Gov. Tim Kaine and pastor Rick Warren (Obama’s choice to give the invocation at his inauguration), who declared he would go to jail rather than abide by the regulation. After the “accommo-

A brilliant sleight of hand. But let’s for a moment accept the president on his own terms. Let’s accept his contention that this “accommodation” is a real shift of responsibility to the insurer. Has anyone considered the import of this new mandate? The president of the United States has just ordered private companies to give away for free a service that his own health and human services secretary has repeatedly called a major financial burden.

On what authority? Where does it say that the president can unilaterally order a private

company to provide an allegedly free-standing service at no cost to certain select beneficiaries?

This is government by presidential fiat. In Venezuela, that’s done all the time. Perhaps we should we call Obama’s “accommodation” Presidential Decree No. 1.

Consider the constitutional wreckage left by Obamacare: First, its assault on the free exercise of religion. Only churches themselves are left alone. Beyond the churchyard gate, religious autonomy disappears. Every other religious institution must bow to the state because, by this administration’s regulatory definition, church schools, hospitals and charities are not “religious,” and thus have no right to the free exercise of religion — no protection from being forced into doctrinal violations commanded by the state.

Second, its assault on free enterprise. To solve his own political problem, the president presumes to order a private company to enter into a contract for the provision of certain services — all of which are free. And yet, this breathtaking arrogation of power is simply the logical extension of Washington’s takeover of the private system of medical care — a system Obama farcically pretends to be maintaining.

Under Obamacare, the state treats private insurers the way it does government-regulated monopolies and utilities. It determines everything of importance. Insurers, by definition, set premiums according to risk. Not

anymore. The risk ratios (for age, gender, smoking, etc.) are decreed by Washington. This is nationalization in all but name.

The insurer is turned into a middleman, subject to state control — and presidential whim.

Third, the assault on individual autonomy. Every citizen without insurance is ordered to buy it, again under penalty of law. This so-called individual mandate is now before the Supreme Court — because never before has the already inflated Commerce Clause been used to compel a citizen to enter into a private contract with a private company by mere fact of his existence.

This constitutional trifecta — the state invading the autonomy of religious institutions, private companies and the individual citizen — should not surprise. It is what happens when the state takes over one-sixth of the economy.

In 2010, when all this lay hazily in the future, the sheer arrogance of Obamacare energized a popular resistance powerful enough to deliver an electoral shellacking to Obama. Yet two years later, as the consequences of that overreach materialize before our eyes, the issue is fading. This constitutes a huge failing of the opposition party whose responsibility it is to make the opposition argument.

Every presidential challenger says he will repeal Obamacare on Day One. Well, yes. But is any of them making the case for why?

Policy group looks at Laffer tax claims

By Carl Davis Institute on Taxation and Economic Policy

With jobs front and center in most voters’ minds, politicians seeking to cut or repeal personal income taxes are marketing their proposals as tools for boosting the economy. Recently, some have sought to bolster this claim by asserting that states without income taxes are experiencing a real economic boom, and by promising that the boom can be recreated in any state smart enough to join the no-tax club.

My organization was skeptical of these claims, so we decided to take a closer look at one of the most prominent studies, cited by the governors of Kansas and Oklahoma, among others. It turns out that the study was done by a consulting firm headed by economist Arthur Laffer, perhaps best known as a longtime spokesman of a supply-side economic theory that George H.W. Bush once called “voodoo economics” because of its bizarre insistence that tax cuts often lead to higher revenues.

In kicking the tires on the study’s findings, we paid particu-

“

Laffer also makes no effort to account for the tremendous natural resource advantages enjoyed by many no-tax states.”

lar attention to the same 18 states it includes: the nine without income taxes, and the nine with the highest top income tax rates. But while Laffer chose to focus on clumsy aggregate data (more on that later), we took a look at three of the most important and widely recognized measures of economic success: growth in economic output per person, growth in median income levels, and the unemployment rate. The results we found were very different than Laffer’s.

In terms of the first two measures — economic output per person and median income levels — the nine states without income taxes are actually lagging behind the nine states with the highest top income tax rates, and most no-tax states are actually doing worse than the national average.

On the third measure, the unemployment rate, it turns out that

no-tax states and “high tax rate” states are essentially neck and neck, which will no doubt shock lawmakers promising that an improved job climate will come hot on the heels of income tax repeal.

We also found that on all three measures, some of the states most frequently disparaged by the tax cut true believers — including Maryland, Hawaii and Vermont — managed to best not only notax idol Texas but also most of the other eight states “unburdened” by a personal income tax.

So how was Laffer able to reach the opposite conclusion, and in the process generate a wave of assertions that states without income taxes are booming? It turns out that the aggregate numbers he picked — designed to measure the total size of an economy and its workforce — are heavily influenced by shifts in population.

These shifts, in turn, are driven by a slew of factors Laffer fails to control for, like the housing market, population density, birth rates, immigration and even climate. And since most no-tax states happen to be located in the growing south and western regions of the country, they tend to have a lot of these

factors working in their favor.

Laffer also makes no effort to account for the tremendous natural resource advantages enjoyed by many no-tax states. The two best performing states, according to Laffer, also happen to be the two states most dependent on mining: Alaska and Wyoming. But one would be hard pressed to find a serious analyst in either state willing to attribute their recent growth to the lack of an income tax.

The bottom line is this: No-tax states aren’t booming, and lawmakers should not expect their states’ economies to improve if they join the no-tax or low-tax club. In fact, in terms of the economic factors that matter most to families — income levels, and whether or not they can find a job — the states with the highest top income tax rates are, in most cases, doing better than the no-tax states. If the economy is really the concern of lawmakers railing against the income tax, it’s time for them to put away Arthur Laffer’s tax cut snake oil.

Beware of the ‘mud’: Self wary of Red Raiders

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

There’s always a chance Kansas University’s basketball team will put on a highflying offensive display — featuring an assortment of lob-dunks and breakaway jams — on any given night in Allen Fieldhouse, a place where the Jayhawks have won 88 of their past 89 games.

The odds of such a show decrease a bit, however, when the opponent happens to be coach Billy Gillispie’s 2011-12 Texas Tech Red Raiders.

Tech (8-17), which has averaged a league-worst 53.2 points a game while winning just one of 13 conference contests, has allowed 67.2 points a game while holding its last two opponents — Oklahoma (47) and Texas A&M (47) — under 50. The last time Tech held back-to-back league foes under the century mark was way back in 1987.

“I know Billy well enough to know he’ll muddy it up,” KU coach Bill Self said in previewing today’s 7 p.m. home match-up between the No. 4-ranked Jayhawks (21-5, 11-2) and Red Raiders. Tech

is coached by former Self assistant Gillispie, who is not against slowing the game to a crawl if necessary.

“When we played down there, he did a good job. It was 16-15 with five minutes left in the first half. We set ball back a few years in that first half,” Self added.

The Jayhawks led, 35-20, at the break before scoring 46 points the second 20 minutes of an 81-46 rout of the Raiders on Jan. 11 in Lubbock.

“Of course in Manhattan, both the Jayhawks and Wildcats set ball back 15 or 20 years,” Self said of Monday’s

59-53 KU victory in Manhattan. “I don’t think winning ugly is all bad. This past Monday was a typical Big 10-type game. There were fewer possessions, and it was muddied up. That will be the same when we play Billy.”

Sophomore guard Javarez Willis was the only Red Raider to score in double figures in the first meeting with KU. He scored 12 points on a night KU’s Thomas Robinson, Tyshawn Taylor and Travis Releford totaled 19, 15 and 12 respectively.

“They are better than we were in my first year. We

lost 18 in a row (at Oral Roberts), and that wasn’t exactly playing Big 12-caliber competition,” Self said.

“He’s way ahead of where we were, but it’s tough. He didn’t get a chance to really recruit (after taking over for Pat Knight). By the time he got the job, most of the guys had signed or committed.

I’m not worried about Billy getting players there. He’s going to get better players there, and they’re going to get better. They’re better than they were the first time

LHS boys bomb Hawks

By Benton Smith basmith@ljworld.com

OLATHE — An old basketball adage warns, Live by the three, die by the three.

Lawrence High’s boys basketball team didn’t let that hoops axiom impact it Friday night, though. LHS thrived from long range at Olathe East, burying seven of 13 attempts from long range in a 51-41 victory over the No. 6 team in Class 6A. Though Lawrence took its time on offense as it got used to O-East’s 3-2 zone in the first quarter, LHS had it deciphered by the second quarter. That’s when LHS couldn’t be stopped in the half court and hit seven of its nine shot attempts, including five three-pointers.

Lions coach Mike Lewis said it was probably the team’s best offensive quarter of the season, especially from long distance.

“Most high school teams and about all basketball teams, you start hitting some threes, and everybody feels good,” Lewis said, adding the hot stretch gave his team confidence and momentum.

Though the second quarter began with Bryce Montes de Oca hitting a jump hook in the lane and Jake Mosiman draining a pretty fadeaway jumper off the dribble, the Lions’ next five buckets came from long range.

Troy Willoughby found Mosiman at the top of the key for the first trey. Next, Logan Henrichs kicked the ball to KJ Pritchard for another bomb.

Mosiman hit his second trifecta from the left wing to put LHS up 17-12 with less than three minutes to go in the half.

Pritchard later set up Henrichs for a three with 1:32 left in the second, and the Lions’ long-range dominance continued on the final possession

FREE STATE SENIOR JACKIE GARCIA (10) IS FOULED by Olathe North’s Jessica Sheble (0). FSHS beat O-North, 62-46, on Senior Night Friday at Free State.

Senior Night always means different things to different people.

Friday night at Free State High, it meant victory for the FSHS boys and girls basketball teams, which both rolled past Olathe North.

Playing on head coach Bryan Duncan’s 39th birthday, the Free State girls raced to a fast start, did their best to help Duncan age during the middle portion and finally calmed down enough to cruise to a 62-46 victory.

A couple of hours later, the Free State boys sent six seniors out with a 66-54 victory that was far more convincing than the final score suggests.

In the girls game, the Firebirds (13-5) turned up the tempo from the start and outshot the Eagles 58 fieldgoal attempts to 39. Behind intense pressure defense and a bunch of easy transition buckets, FSHS built a first-half lead of as many as 15 points (31-16) before the Eagles began to chip away.

By halftime, O-North had trimmed the Free State lead to seven, 33-26. Four minutes into the third quarter, the lead was down to a point at 36-35.

“We went with a high-risk, high-reward style tonight,” Duncan said. “We got a ton of layups because of it, but, at times, I thought we were actually a little too aggressive, and that led to some easy Please see FREE STATE, page 4B

Seabury boys win OT thriller

SEABURY’S GEORGI FUNTAROV (15) DRIVES to the basket. The Seahawks beat University Academy, 76-71 in overtime, Please see LHS, page 4B on Friday at Seabury.

The plan was to switch all ball screens, so on the game’s biggest possession, Seabury Academy’s Thomas Diaz was left to guard University Academy’s Martez Harrison at the top of the three-point line.

It was a tie game, final seconds, and the 6-foot-5 Diaz was trying to stop a 5-10 guard who had already put up 43 points.

“I felt pressure,” Diaz said, “but I knew that I had to play good defense on him and close out and let him shoot over me.”

Diaz stuck to the quick Harrison, forcing a fadeaway

three-pointer that bounced hard off the rim and sent the game to overtime. There, Seabury outlasted Harrison and UAHS for a 76-71 victory in front of a raucous home crowd at Seabury’s gym.

“We knew that it was Senior Night,” Diaz said, “and I didn’t want to go home sad after my last game at home.”

Though Harrison’s missed three-pointer was a huge momentum-changer, it was his made three-pointer in overtime that ended up being the biggest boost for Seabury.

Following a three from the right wing with 3:05 left in overtime — his first three of the night, good for his 46th point — Harrison said a few

words to the Seabury players in celebration.

The referees whistled him for a technical foul, and because it was his second of the game, he was disqualified.

Though Seabury trailed 69-68 at the time, it controlled the contest after that.

Seabury’s Khadre Lane buried a baseline jumper, then followed that up with a guarded three from the wing to push the Seahawks’ lead to 73-69 with 1:15 left.

“If we need him in those kinds of moments, he’s there,” Diaz said of Lane. “I believe in him a lot.”

Six-foot-7 senior Georgi Funtarov sealed the victory, Please see SEABURY, page 4B

Weber: Players getting the message CHAMPAIGN, ILL. (AP) — Illinois coach Bruce Weber said Friday that he hopes to finish his career with the Illini after a week that saw him criticize both himself and his players before apologizing for being frustrated.

The ninth-year head coach said his players took the right message away from his harsh critique: They need to play tougher.

“I love Illinois, I’ve said it many times,” Weber said. “I love to be the coach here. I want to finish my career here.

“Do I want to do better? No doubt,” he added. “And that’s my disappointment and frustra-

tion, because I know I’m a good coach, and I’ve done it for a long time.”

After a 6762 home loss Wednesday to Purdue, Weber said in an emotional news conference that he’d failed the past few years Weber to create a culture of toughness at Illinois, choosing to play to win every game because he was coaching under high pressure rather than, in some cases, sending a key player to the

Fed up with comparisons early in his first season, Illinois coach Bruce Weber showed up for a December 2003 news conference dressed in black to stage a mock funeral to mark the end of the Bill Self era.

I wonder if Weber still owns the suit.

He could wear it for today’s game after effectively pronouncing his Illinois program dead sometime around 10 p.m.

Wednesday.

After Illinois lost to Purdue, 67-62, Weber supported the worst criticism of him by admitting he hadn’t created a disciplined, structured environment for players to develop championship habits. Potential Illinois recruits, cover your ears.

“The last three years all I did was worry about winning instead of developing a culture and toughness,” Weber said.

Worse, Weber openly blamed players — faulting Meyers Leonard’s effort and Brandon Paul’s shot selection on a final three-point attempt.

“I don’t know what he was thinking, to be honest,” Weber said.

Honestly, what was Weber thinking?

On a roll, Weber also regretted not benching Leonard and Paul in January and complained his players “don’t have great basketball savvy.”

The same could be said for Weber’s PR sense. One of the Big Ten’s most sincere, likable coaches made a bad situation worse by simply being too honest for his own good.

“With my analyst hat on, I understand the accumulation of years of frustration,” said ESPN commentator Steve Bardo, a former Illini guard. “But from an alum and ex-player point of view, I was disappointed to hear his resignation of the situation with so much basketball left. It was startling.”

It was the wrong way to influence athletic director Mike Thomas, who recently passed on opportunities to endorse Weber.

Forget whether Weber was right about Illinois’ shortcomings in his de facto concession speech. Weber wasn’t an NBA coach criticizing millionaires.

He represented Illinois like a bad loser pointing fingers at amateurs who, by Weber’s own account, don’t know how to reach deep for something extra because their coach never forced them.

The irony: Now the Illini need a hot streak to make the NCAA field and save Weber’s job. Yet with three ranked teams among their final five regular-season opponents, they have little chance without both players Weber just chastised publicly elevating their games.

Imagine how awkward Weber’s comments made Thursday’s practice.

Weber can be proud of what Illinois accomplished in nine seasons. But sometimes change benefits everybody, even the best of men.

The next time Weber chooses to bear his soul, I won’t be surprised if he agrees.

ber’s performance after the season, but has said he believes Illinois should do more than just make the tournament.

Weber said his players told him after practice Thursday that they understood what he was saying.

“They said that we need to be tougher, and I said that’s exactly right,” Weber said.

Illinois players weren’t available to the media Friday. Assistant sports information director Derrick Burson said the team planned to fly to Nebraska that afternoon to prepare for today’s game against the Cornhuskers (11-13, 3-10).

COMMENTARY

Illini coach was a bit too honest

bench to deliver a message and risk losing.

Weber declined Friday to say whether he’d considered resigning.

“That’s not even a question I’ll address, to be honest,” he said. “What has happened?

We’re 16 and 10, we’re still in the NCAA field.”

The Illini (16-10, 5-8 Big Ten) have lost seven of eight. Some prognosticators, though, still consider them a likely NCAA Tournament team because of wins over Michigan State and Ohio State.

Athletic director Mike Thomas has said he’ll evaluate We-

Yankees to send pitcher Burnett to Pirates NEW YORK — The Yankees agreed Friday to trade much maligned pitcher A.J. Burnett to Pittsburgh for two minor-leaguers, a deal that clears the way for New York to add Raul Ibanez.

Pittsburgh will pay $13 million of the $33 million salary due Burnett for 2012 and 2013, a person familiar with the negotiations said Friday, speaking on condition of anonymity because no announcement has been made.

New York will receive 25-year-old right-hander Diego Moreno and 20-year-old outfielder Exicardo Cayones, both low-level prospects.

The agreement is subject to Burnett passing a physiBurnett cal, which is likely to take place Sunday. Commissioner Bud Selig also must approve it because of the money involved.

“I think he’s looking forward to the opportunity to re-establish himself and mentor some of the young pitchers,” said Burnett’s agent, Darek Braunecker.

Royals, Collins reach deal KANSAS CITY, MO. — The Royals and lefthander Tim Collins have agreed to terms on a contract for this season, leaving 11 unsigned players on their 40-man roster.

The unsigned players have fewer than three years of service time, which means their contracts can be set at the club’s discretion.

The deal with the 22-year-old Collins was announced Friday, three days before pitchers and catchers are due to report to the team’s spring training facility in Surprise, Ariz.

Collins was 4-4 with a 3.63 earned-run average in 68 relief appearances during his rookie season.

Kansas City begins full-squad workouts on Feb. 25.

Boston’s Wakefield retiring FORT MYERS, FLA. — Tim Wakefield is retiring after pitching the last 17 seasons for the Boston Red Sox. The 45-year-old knuckleballer made the announcement at the team’s spring training facility Friday.

After two seasons with the Pittsburgh Pirates, the right-hander signed as a minor-league free agent in April 1995. He was 186-168 with a 4.43 ERA with the Red Sox. Only Roger Clemens and Cy Young had more wins (192) with the team.

Wakefield is first in team history with 3,006 innings and 430 starts, and second in games and strikeouts.

For his career, Wakefield was 200-180 with a 4.41 ERA He was 7-8 with a 5.12 ERA last season in 23 starts and 10 relief appearances. He won two World Series championships in Boston.

GOLF

Mickelson keeps top spot LOS ANGELES — Phil Mickelson wasn’t at his best Friday at Riviera. Two shots at least helped him stay in the lead. Despite having only two birdie chances inside 15 feet, Mickelson holed out from the eighth fairway for eagle and chipped in for birdie on the par-3 16th. That carried him to a 1-under 70 and a one-shot lead over Pat Perez in the Northern Trust Open.

Mickelson was at 6-under 136, assured of being atop the leaderboard for the third straight round.

The group at 4-under 138 included Jimmy Walker (66), Carl Pettersson (70), Jonathan Byrd (70), Marc Leishman (69) and Matt Kuchar (69). Former Kansas University golfer Gary Woodland fired a second-round 71 and was 2 over for the tournament.

Mize’s 62 best at ACE NAPLES, FLA. — Larry Mize shot a 10-under 62 Friday to grab the first-round lead at the ACE Group Classic. Mize eagled No. 17 and birdied the 18th to finish off his round.

KU women eager for Border War finale

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

When it comes to the Border War rivalry with Missouri, Kansas University women’s basketball coach Bonnie Henrickson is like many other KU coaches.

She may not spit fire like the late Don Fambrough used to and may not be asked about KUMU as often as men’s basketball coach Bill Self, but she still paints the same pictures as those guys.

Today, when the Tigers and Jayhawks tangle at 1 p.m. at Allen Fieldhouse for what could be the final time in the long and storied history, Henrickson will look to lean on a little extra motivation for the home team.

“We tell ’em about

(Quantrill’s) raid and the history, and we try to explain that when we go over there they’ll have people at the game END who only go to one OF THE game a RIVARLY year and they pick Who: Misthat one souri (10-14 b e c a u s e overall, 0-13 it’s us,” Big 12) vs.

H e n r i c k - Kansas (17son said. 8, 6-7) “But since t h e y ’ r e When: 1 p.m. l e a v i n g today the league, Where: Allen we’ve got Fieldhouse a n o t h e r TV: Metro little nug- (cable changet to nel 37) dangle out there this year.”

With the Tigers headed

to the SEC later this year and no future match-ups between the two schools on the horizon, today’s showdown is big for both squads. For some players, such as senior Aishah Sutherland, today’s game will mark the end of a four-year war against Mizzou. Of course, with the regular season winding down, Sutherland faces games like that every time out.

“I’ve looked at every team that I’ve played lately as if this is the last time I’ll play them,” Sutherland said. “And I want to do well in my last game against them. But with this game, there’s a lot of history, and people want to bring up the story and get you emotionally into it.”

True as that may be,

Price gets 300th KU win J-W Staff Reports

MURFREESBORO, TENN. — Junior catcher Alex DeLeon went 2-for-5 with a three-run double and four RBIs and sophomore Frank Duncan earned his first collegiate victory as Kansas University downed Middle Tennessee, 7-3, to give coach Ritch Price his 300th victory at KU on Friday afternoon at Reese Smith Jr. Field.

Price, who has been at K a n s a s Price since 2003, is the second Jayhawk head coach to amass 300 victories at the school — joining Floyd Temple, who won 483 games from 1954-81.

“First off, I’m really honored to be the baseball coach at the University of Kansas,” Price said. “There isn’t a guy in America that loves their job more than I do. I feel very fortunate to be given the opportunity to coach some great young men in my 10 years at Kan-

sas. I got a lot of texts today from former players wishing me good luck, and that’s what it’s all about.

This (winning 300 games) is as much about them as it is about me.”

After Middle Tennessee jumped out to a 3-1 lead in the bottom of the second, Duncan and the Jayhawk bullpen went into shutdown mode. The Kansas staff held the Blue Raiders to just one hit — a single to lead off the ninth — over the final seven innings.

Meanwhile, KU’s offense made quick work of the early deficit.

In the third inning, KU tied the score with twoout RBI singles by DeLeon and freshman left fielder Michael Suiter.

The Jayhawks took the lead in the fourth when Jordan Dreiling doubled down the right field line, and Kevin Kuntz doubled into the left-field corner.

DeLeon broke the game open in the sixth with his three-run double.

Duncan struggled early, but picked up the win. The sophomore went 52⁄3 innings and allowed three runs on four hits with four walks and three strikeouts.

“One of the things I really like about Frank (Duncan) is his make-up; he’s a great competitor,” Price said. “Personally, I didn’t think his stuff was very good today. His arm was down on his breaking ball and his change-up, and as a result, his stuff was hanging. But like all kids that know how to compete, he found a way to get us into the sixth inning, and his stuff got better as the game went on.”

Relief pitchers Jordan Luvisi and Jordan Jakubov allowed just two base runners over their 21⁄3 innings, while Tanner Poppe recorded two strikeouts in the ninth.

KU will play Bowling Green at 10:30 a.m. and Belmont at 2 p.m. today at Belmont’s Rose Park in Nashville, Tenn.

Softball win streak hits 5 J-W Staff Reports

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Kansas University’s softball team gave up four runs in the sixth, then scored four of its own in the seventh to claim a 9-6 victory over Charlotte on Friday to cap a 2-0 day at the Charlotte Classic.

Earlier Friday, KU beat Middle Tennessee State, 7-3.

Against Charlotte, KU banged 16 hits, the most in coach Megan Smith’s tenure.

The Jayhawks (5-2) led, 6-2, in the top of the sixth, but Charlotte (2-3) tied it in the bottom.

“After the first game, I thought we were flat offensively so I challenged the team to lock in and have better at bats,” Smith said. “As a result of better at-bats, we had better outcomes. I thought they did a really great job of battling and being aggressive. Luckily, the results came, and we’re happy with that.”

Freshman Alicia Pille (32) started — and ended —

the second game, racking up six strikeouts, walking one and allowing two runs.

Junior Morgan Druhan took over in relief in the fourth inning and allowed four runs while striking out three before Pille reentered the game in sixth.

The Hull twins provided the offense. Maggie and Rosie Hull combined for a 7-for-9 performance with two RBIs apiece and five runs scored. Maggie posted a career-best four hits and finished a home run short of the cycle, while Rosie went 3-for-4, including her second career home run.

Junior shortstop Mariah Montgomery knocked in a team-high three RBIs on a 3-for-5 effort. Freshmen Cassen Salamone and Maddie Stein also racked up multi-hit showings at the plate.

Earlier Friday, Kristin Martinez pitched a complete game, and KU cruised after a five-run first inning against MTSU (0-1).

Martinez (1-0) allowed two home runs among her six hits over seven in-

nings, with seven strikeouts and no walks.

Kansas received multiRBI performances from freshman catcher Lexi Bryant and fifth-year senior right fielder Liz Kocon. Kocon, who drove in two RBIs in the sixth, needs six RBIs to become the all-time career leader at Kansas.

Kansas, winner of five straight, will face Stony Brook at 9 a.m. today.

it’s still new to some Jayhawks. Take freshman guard Natalie Knight. Although she grew up in Olathe and was familiar

with the KU-MU rivalry before ever setting foot on campus, she only has experienced the battle once, when the Jayhawks defeated MU, 72-63, in Columbia, Mo., on Jan. 15.

Although Knight had only a little time to get into the rivalry, she learned enough to know she will miss it.

“It’s a little disappointing,” she said. “But TCU’s coming in next year, and there’s still going to be a lot of good teams in the Big 12. Yeah, we’re losing that competition, but we’re gaining a lot, too.”

As for today’s final chapter, Knight’s looking forward to that.

“It’s definitely exciting,” she said. “Especially since we’re playing them at home.”

Today’s game will

mark the first of two Kansas-Missouri basketball match-ups scheduled for the next seven days.

The men’s teams will do battle at Allen Fieldhouse on Feb. 25, and Henrickson wants to be sure that her team sets the stage for a KU sweep.

“We talk about that and our responsibility to contribute to that,” she said. “We’ll get ’em first here, and then we’ve got a week for everybody to get fired up again and get it on the guys’ side, as well.”

Missouri enters the game at 10-14 overall and 0-13 in Big 12 play.

Kansas is 17-8 and 6-7 in the Big 12.

KU leads the all-time series, 44-37, including a 21-11 advantage in games played in Lawrence.

we played them. They could have easily beat (Texas) A&M. They had the game muddied up, just the way they wanted it. They beat Oklahoma muddying it up, and they’ll come in here and try to muddy it up.”

Tech scored just 38 points in Tuesday’s 4738 home loss to A&M, a game that followed Saturday’s 65-47 home victory over OU, Gillispie’s first conference win since his last coaching stint at Kentucky.

The Raiders actually led the Aggies, 24-9, with 6:30 left in the first half, making the rest of the game that much more disappointing.

“We’ve been seeing results. The only one anyone cares about is wins and losses,” Gillispie said.

“As coaches you see the process more than the end result. We understand the end result is what matters. We understand that and like that. I’ve seen us improve in so many areas during the course of the season, while we were not winning conference games, but that makes me appreciate and respect our guys even more.

“There are not too many people in life when things don’t start out as well as you want they keep on fighting hard and stick with it and are persistent and have the tenacity and all those things that will bode well for the future of the program.”

The Raiders have just one double-digit scorer — Jordan Tolbert, a 6-foot-7 freshman who averages 11.4 points a game. Robert Lewandowski, a 6-10 senior out of Blue Valley West High School, averages 7.3 points and 4.0 rebounds per game.

“We knew what we signed up for. Our players knew it’d be a challenge all year long. They’ve been up for the challenge as far as doing every single thing right other than just winning games in the conference,” Gillispie said. “You don’t want to go through the long losing streak. But it makes you very, very proud as a coach when young people continue to fight even though the result is not what anybody wants.”

“We can definitely win the league,” KU junior center Jeff Withey said.

“There are five more games, and the league is ours if we go to work and do what we are supposed to do. We can beat out Missouri when they come here if we do what we’re supposed to do and play basketball like we are capable of playing. We want to win the league, and that is something that we pride ourselves on and we just have to go to work everyday.”

Withey, who was national player of the week last week, was asked if he’s noticed a change in people around him.

“Definitely, walking on campus trying to talk to everybody who wants to talk to you,” he said. “You try to stay humble by not believing the hype. I’ve tried to stay away from the media. It’s hard, but I O want to stay humble and League race tight: Con- focus on basketball.”

“He did a really nice job on (Brady) Heslip down at Baylor. He did a nice job, for the most part, the other night on (K-State’s Will) Spradling. He was locked up on him most of the time. He’s done some good things. Elijah is not concerned at all about scoring or that kind of stuff. He just wants to win. He takes great pride in doing little things to give us the best chance to win, so I’m pleased with him. I’m still waiting for that stretch (of breakout games). Every player has that stretch, and his hasn’t come yet. I’m excited about that stretch because I know it’s coming.”

Asked what to expect from Tech, Johnson said: “Their best shot. It’s the biggest game they play in conference when they come to Kansas, so I’m ready. We’re ready ... all of us.”

LAWRENCE HIGH’S JOLANA SHIELD (43) LOOKS FOR AN OPEN TEAMMATE in the Lions’ 56-29 loss Friday at Olathe East.

LHS CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B

of the half. Henrichs, who controlled a deflected pass from Anthony Buffalomeat, put up a rainbow three-pointer that caught nothing but net as time expired and gave the Lions a 23-14 advantage at the break.

Mosiman marveled about the team’s catching fire in the second quarter after a methodical first eight minutes, when OEast (12-6) held a 6-4 lead.

“I looked up in the first quarter with two minutes left and it’s 2-2,” said Mosiman, who scored 13 points off the bench.

After that slow first quarter, Buffalomeat said, Lewis instructed the Lions (11-7) to be patient and open up passing lanes on offense.

“People were driving and just kicking it out for three,” the senior said With that technique clicking marvelously, LHS connected on five straight three-pointers in the second.

Said Mosiman of the second-quarter barrage: “It gave us tons of momentum. Logan’s buzzerbeater at halftime was awesome. Luck was with us.”

Adding to Lawrence’s run was its play on the defensive end.

The Hawks were stuck on 14 points from the final couple of minutes of the second quarter until the 4:26 mark in the third. By that point, LHS held a 3015 advantage.

Things improved significantly for O-East once Caelan Neal made a layup with 3:30 left in the third to end a nearly seven-minute stretch of no field goals for the home team. The Hawks gained an edge with their trapping half-court defense down the stretch and pulled within five points at the midway point of the fourth quarter.

Said Lewis: “The pace of it was frantic. We played really bad there for a few possessions. We gave it right to them, or they deflected it.”

Fortunately for Lawrence, Buffalomeat carried the scoring load in the second half, when he contributed all of his game-high 16 points.

At 7 p.m. Tuesday, Lawrence will play at Shawnee Mission North.

Olathe East girls 56, Lawrence 29 A miserable first-half shooting slump put Lawrence High’s girls basketball team in an inescapable hole Friday night at Olathe East.

Lions coach Nick Wood wasn’t disappointed with

the shots his team was getting early on, but so many quality looks were off the mark that the Hawks had little trouble in a rout of LHS. Wood said Lawrence, which lost its fifth straight game, didn’t stand much of a chance after going 3-for-23 from the floor in the first two quarters.

“We have to find a way to make some of those so we can stay in the game,” Wood said.

After connecting on just two of their 13 shots in the first quarter — Monica Howard hit a jumper with 4:40 left and Anna Wright scored with an open shot off an in-bound play with 30 seconds left — the Lions (6-12) had even more trouble finding baskets in the second quarter.

LHS went 1-for-10 in the second. Freshman sub Jolana Shield converted a reverse layup along the baseline with 4:43 to play in the first half. But that was the only second-quarter field goal Lawrence managed against 10thranked O-East (12-6). The Lions had just three more points the rest of the quarter, with two free throws from Bri Anderson and one from Howard, and trailed 27-12 at halftime.

The third quarter began with some promise for the Lions, as Wright hit a three-pointer in transition, Howard scored a pair of baskets in the paint, and Marissa Pope drove the ball strong to the lane for a lay-up that cut the O-East lead to 32-21 with 3:07 to play in the quarter. But the Lions didn’t hit another shot — or even score another point — until Wright made a three-pointer with just more than four minutes left in the fourth. The basket put an end to a 16-0 Hawks run.

“All of a sudden we go eight minutes without scoring,” Wood lamented.

“We have to find a way not only to have valuable possessions, but then find a way to finish those valuable possessions.”

Even when Lawrence got something positive going on offense in the third, Hawks senior forward D’Shawna Lee took over on the opposite end of the court, scoring nine of her 11 points.

“Once we kind of made it a game, she kind of stepped up and took over,” Wood said. “And that’s what we need one of our girls to do — or all of our girls. We’ve got to get hungry at that moment.”

O-East senior guard Alyssa Palmer made all seven of her shots, to score a game-high 17 points.

Wright led LHS with eight points, and Howard scored seven. Kionna Coleman led the Lions with seven boards.

At 5:30 p.m. Tuesday, Lawrence will play at Shawnee Mission North.

points for them, as well.”

With their lead — and the game — in jeopardy, the Firebirds turned to one of their three seniors for a little help. Guard Lynn Robinson (14 points) scored seven straight points to help Free State re-establish control.

That allowed the rest of her teammates to relax and paved the way for a 20-point night from junior Kennedy Kirkpatrick.

Kirkpatrick gave credit for the victory to all three FSHS seniors.

“Jackie (Garcia) and Lynn are two of our main contributors, and they definitely showed that tonight,” Kirkpatrick said.

How about senior reserve Baha White, who played a couple of minutes in the first quarter and then cracked the scoring column with a free throw in the fourth?

“She brought great energy tonight,” Kirkpatrick added. “I don’t think anyone would’ve been able to tell the difference between her and our starters. She played well.”

So, too, did Garcia and Robinson, both three-year starters who have racked up a lot of great memories in the Free State gym.

“They both had a little extra in their step tonight,” Duncan said. “They’ve been a joy to coach.”

Robinson, who first and foremost was thankful for Friday’s victory, turned sentimental when reflecting on the past three years.

when he put in two free throws with 4.9 seconds left to push Seabury’s lead to 7671.

“I just said, ‘I have to make them, because it’s my last home game, and I want my team to win,’” Funtarov said.

The Seahawks (10-9) trailed by five with just 2:09 to go when coach Ashley Battles fired up his team, yelling at them in the huddle that they were the better team.

Lane followed with a three, then Diaz put in an offensive stickback before Harrison and Funtarov traded shots to tie it at 66.

UAHS (14-9) held it for the last possession, when Harrison’s three missed to send it to overtime.

Harrison finished with 46 points on 16-for-31 shooting. The penetrating guard also made 13 of 15 free throws and added a team-high 10 rebounds.

“You just can’t stop that kid,” Battles said. “You can stop everybody else, but you can’t stop him. It was just nuts.”

Funtarov answered with 29 points on 11-for23 shooting to go with a team-high 12 rebounds. He also made his first three shots of the game — all three-pointers.

Diaz posted 17 points on 7-for-11 shooting, though his best skill might have been as a blood stopper.

After getting fouled with 3:34 left in overtime, Diaz was left with a bloody nose, which required him to come to the sideline.

To buy time, Battles asked the officials about every scenario and rule he could think of, then took a timeout so trainers could tend to Diaz.

Following the stoppage, Diaz went out to the court with toilet paper stuck in both nostrils, which wasn’t allowed by the officials.

When he took the paper out, the bleeding had stopped.

Not only did Diaz hit both free throws, but he also stayed in the rest of the game without any more blood leaving his nose.

“I just put some water on my forehead and prayed a little bit,” Diaz said. “I just kept playing,

Dimitar Gocevski (all kinds of energy) each contributed to the victory in which the Firebirds outscored the Eagles 45-24 during the second and third quarters combined.

“I think we really needed this because we’ve been in a slump,” Patterson said. “I think the nerves got to us a little in the beginning, but we settled down, moved the ball and shots started to fall. Hopefully we can do it again Tuesday night.”

With so many players playing the final home game of their careers, FSHS coach Chuck Law decided to scrap the usual pregame stuff and focus on what he thought was the most important aspect of the night.

“There were only two words written on the white board during pregame,” Law said. “And those were ‘Senior Night.’

I thought everybody did a great job of contributing to the victory tonight.”

Both Free State squads will travel to Shawnee Mission East on Tuesday, before wrapping up the regular season with Round 2 of the City Showdown against Lawrence High, Friday at LHS.

Dear Annie: Several years ago, you printed an essay about a dog who had lived a long life and had become old and sickly and wanted his master to let him die. I think of it often. Would it be possible to rerun it?

— Rockford, Ill. Dear Rockford: Thank you for asking. Here is “A Dog’s Plea” by Beth Norman Harris Treat me kindly, my beloved friend, for no heart in all the world is more grateful for kindness than the loving heart of me.

Do not break my spirit with a stick, for though I might lick your hand between blows, your patience and understand-

Hallmark keeps that loving feeling Four nights too late for Valentine’s Day, “Second Honeymoon” (7 p.m., Hallmark) offers a grown-up variation on “The Parent Trap.”

After 20 years of marriage, Maggie (Roma Downey, “Touched by an Angel”) and George (Tim Matheson, “The West Wing”) decide to call it quits and get divorced. Too bad they didn’t tell the kids first — they may not have bought them tickets for a surprise trip to a tropical island for their 20th anniversary. That says more about their emotional radar than anything else, but hey, this is a Hallmark movie, where trips to lush vacation spots can repair any rift and every day is Valentine’s Day.

Comedy Central repeats Nick Cannon’s (“America’s Got Talent”) first comedy special “Nick Cannon: Mr. Showbiz” (10 p.m.).

Former regular Maya Rudolph returns to host “Saturday Night Live” (10:30 p.m., NBC), featuring musical guest Sleigh Bells. She’s had a pretty interesting year. She was the solid, sane best friend and bride in the anarchic “Bridesmaids” (co-written by “SNL” regular Kristin Wiig), as well as the vain and glorious talk show diva on “Up All Night.” And as such she’s the best thing about that show.

Tonight’s other highlights

NASCAR ‘s Budweiser Shootout (7 p.m., Fox).

Between seasons of “The Amazing Race,” host Phil Keoghan embarks on a 3,500-mile crosscountry bicycle adventure in the documentary “The Ride” (7 p.m., Showtime).

The ash comes down on “The Fades” (8 p.m., BBC America).

Guys of a certain age straddle motorcycles in the 2007 comedy “Wild Hogs” (8 p.m., ABC), starring Tim Allen and John Travolta.

Daniel Radcliffe, Omid Djalili and Sinead O’Connor appear on “The Graham Norton Show” (9:15 p.m., BBC America).

BIRTHDAYS Today’s Birthdays: Former Cosmopolitan editor Helen Gurley Brown is 90. Actor George Kennedy is 87.

Former Sen. John Warner, R-Va., is 85. Author Toni Morrison is 81. Movie director Milos Forman is 80. Singer Yoko Ono is 79. Actress Cybill Shepherd is 62. Singer Juice Newton is 60. Actor John Travolta is 58. Game show host Vanna White is 55. Actress Greta Scacchi is 52. Actor Matt Dillon is 48. Rapper Dr. Dre is 47. Actress Molly Ringwald is 44.

ing will more quickly teach me the things you would have me learn.

Speak to me often, for your voice is the world’s sweetest music, as you must know by the fierce wagging of my tail when the sound of your footstep falls upon my waiting ear.

Please take me inside when it is cold and wet, for I am a domesticated animal, no longer accustomed to bitter elements. I ask no greater glory than the privilege of sitting at your feet beside the hearth.

Keep my pan filled with fresh water, for I cannot tell you when I suffer thirst.

Feed me clean food that I might stay well, to romp and play and do your bid-

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS

For Saturday, Feb. 18: This year you might choose not to be found as easily. You know your priorities and what needs to be done. You often keep your own counsel. As you seem more introverted, sometimes friends might act strangely. Be clear about where you are coming from with those close to you; they will understand.

If you decide to hook up with someone, you will be very private about this bond. Make this OK. If you are attached, the two of you flourish with more downtime.

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) Make calls, and draw friends and family together. A partner or friend does his or her very best to chip in and help. You have the ability to successfully weave together many different types of people. Tonight: To the wee hours.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) Make calls to others at a distance. You might be a little tired and defer making plans to others. You discover that another person will not accept “no” for an answer. Tonight: Go for something different.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) Uproar with a roommate or family member results from a domestic issue. You might not be as creative and dynamic as usual. Stop judging yourself as much. Tonight: Only where there is music.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) Others have plans, and they want you to be a part of them. Getting out of the groove could feel a lot better than you think. Tonight: Go with another person’s suggestion.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) Pace yourself. You have a lot of errands, and you want to make time for a special person in your life. Meeting him or her for lunch could work perfectly. Tonight: Don’t invite stress along.

ding, to walk by your side and stand ready, willing and able to protect you with my life, should your life be in danger.

And, my friend, when I am very old, and I no longer enjoy good health, hearing and sight, do not make heroic efforts to keep me going.

I am not having any fun.

Please see that my trusting life is taken gently. I shall leave this Earth knowing with the last breath I draw that my fate was always safest in your hands.

Congress approves tax present States attack ‘Obamacare’ with for 160 million wage-earners birth control bills

By Andrew Taylor

Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Americans are getting an election-year tax present.

Congress voted with rare speed and cooperation Friday to extend a Social Security payroll tax cut for 160 million workers and to renew unemployment benefits for millions more who haven’t seen a paycheck in six months.

With lawmakers’ ratings in the gutter, the legislation sped through both the House and Senate and was on its way to President Barack Obama, who saluted the quick passage.

Taxpayers have grown accustomed to the 2 percentage point cut in the payroll tax over the past year — around $80 a month for someone earning $50,000 a year — and the reduction now will be continued. So will jobless benefits averaging about $300 a week for the long-term unemployed, though the aid will be cut off sooner than before for many recipients.

Both provisions, which were to expire in less than

two weeks, had been extended only two months during a December congressional fight that seared Republicans. They were determined to avoid a repeat in campaign season.

The hard-fought — but ultimately bipartisan — measure contains the core of Obama’s jobs agenda and promises to pump more than $100 billion into the economy before Election Day. It hands the president a political victory as well, as Republicans called a tactical retreat in hopes of minimizing the gains for Obama and his Democratic allies on Capitol Hill.

The Senate approved the measure on a bipartisan 60-36 vote minutes after the House passed it on a sweeping 293-132 vote.

Obama is expected to sign it shortly after returning from a West Coast fundraising swing.

The hope is that the dual measures will inject consumer demand and support a fragile recovery from the worst economic downturn since the Great Depression. The legisla-

tion would also protect doctors treating Medicare patients from a steep cut in their reimbursements under an outdated funding formula, a reduction that threatened to make it harder for seniors to find physicians.

The tax cuts, jobless coverage and higher doctors’ payments will all continue through the end of the year.

Many Republicans opposed some or all of the legislation but were eager to wipe the issue from the election-year agenda. The measure would pack $141 billion onto the federal deficit over 2012-2013 and slowly recoup more than $50 billion of that over the coming decade.

It may also be the last major bipartisan legislation to make it through a bitterly divided Congress before Election Day. A pile of unfinished business — including expiring tax cuts, Pentagon budget disputes and another hike in the nation’s borrowing cap — awaits after the election in what promises to be a brutal lame duck session that Capitol

Hill veterans are already dreading.

“It is amazing what happens when Congress focuses on doing the right thing instead of just playing politics,” Obama said at an appearance at a Boeing factory in Everett, Wash. “This was a good example, and Congress should take pride in it.”

In fact, politics has been woven into the struggle over the legislation, which, along with the divisive GOP primary campaign and improving economic news, has coincided with a lift in Obama’s poll numbers.

Friday’s votes also cleared away a political headache for House Republicans, still smarting from the battle in late December in which they blocked a two-month extension of the tax cut and jobless coverage, only to retreat after being portrayed as standing in the way of a tax cut for every American who earns a paycheck.

Since then, Republicans have made it clear they didn’t want a repeat of the December disaster.

By John Miller Associated Press

BOISE, IDAHO — Republican lawmakers in a handful of states are opening another front in the war against President Obama’s health care overhaul, seizing on the hot-button issue of birth control with bills that would allow insurance companies to ignore new federal rules requiring them to cover contraception.

Measures introduced recently in Idaho, Missouri and Arizona would go beyond religious nonprofits and expand exemptions to secular insurers or businesses that object to covering contraception, abortion and sterilization.

“In its present state, the health care bill is an affront to my religious freedoms,” said Idaho Republican Rep. Carlos Bilbao, who is sponsoring the bill.

The ACLU counters, saying such bills discriminate against women.

“Each time more entities are allowed to deny contraceptive coverage,

the religious beliefs of some are imposed on others, and gender equality is undermined,” said Monica Hopkins, the ACLU’s Idaho director.

The bills echo a separate proposal in Congress sponsored by Missouri Republican Sen. Roy Blunt, allowing insurance plans to opt out of the requirement on contraception coverage if they have moral objections.

The measures are a direct challenge to a recent Obama administration decision that seeks to guarantee employees of religion-affiliated institutions reproductive health coverage, which includes contraception.

The controversy erupted nationally this year when the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops and other religious groups protested a new Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act rule that required church-affiliated universities, hospitals and nonprofits to include birth control without co-pays or premiums in their insurance plans.

BUSINESS AT A GLANCE

President Barack Obama on Friday called for more steps to help U.S. companies compete overseas, standing in front of an enormous Boeing Dreamliner to summon a bright future for American manufacturing and exports.

Visiting a Boeing plant in Washington state where he watched some of the massive 787s under assembly, Obama pushed for Congress to continue financing a national export credit agency crucial to a goal of doubling exports by 2014.

RELATIVES PREPARE GRAVES Friday for their family members who died in a prison fire, in Comayagua, Honduras. The death toll rose to 356 Friday.

Similar tragedies to deadly Honduran prison fire could occur across region

By Mark Stevenson and Michael Weissenstein Associated Press

TEGUCIGALPA, HONDURAS — The world’s worst prison fire in a century happened in a lockup like many in Honduras: a decrepit, suffocating place of overcrowded, dark cellblocks where many inmates were accused only of petty crimes.

Experts warn a similar disaster could happen again in Central America, where a decade of crackdowns on drug trafficking, gangs and out-of-control street crime has left the region dotted with fire-prone prisons often crammed with more than twice the number of inmates they can safely handle.

“You have this tremendous public security crisis and the quick answer that prevailed for all of these years is ‘iron fist,’” said Jose Miguel Vivanco, Americas director for Human Rights Watch.

“By ‘iron fist,’ you mean

increasing penalties, making it more difficult for prisoners to get out of prison,” he said. Inmates languish for months, or even years, as their cases slowly move through backlogged judicial systems.

Honduras implemented laws in 2003 that doubled the maximum penalty for being a gang leader to 12 years incarceration. Officials also applied a loose definition of gang leadership, locking people up for having gang tattoos or other signs of apparent criminal affiliation.

That started a wave in Central America, where countries like El Salvador and Guatemala passed their own laws against “Mara” street gangs.

“When the anti-mara laws were approved, that caused a saturation of mara gang members in all of the prisons, it was no longer just common crime,” Inestroza said.

prison system had nearly 38 percent more prisoners than it was built for, according to the Londonbased International Centre for Prison Studies.

Conditions were ripe for disaster Tuesday, when a fire set by an inmate raced through overcrowded Comayagua prison, burning and suffocating 356 screaming people in their locked cells as rescuers desperately searched for the only set of keys to the facility.

Only six guards were on duty, responsible for 852 prisoners. And the guard with the keys fled, leaving hundreds to burn in their cells.

“The conditions at all 25 prisons are really the same as they were in Comayagua,” said Renan Inestroza, a congressman with Honduras’ governing National Party. “There is tremendous overcrowding.”

“The guard personnel in all of the prisons aren’t trained in how to handle this type of emergency,” he said.

Global clearinghouse to evict Iranian banks

By Anne Gearan and Slobodan Lekic Associated Press

BRUSSELS — A financial clearinghouse used by virtually every country and major corporation in the world agreed Friday to shut out Iran from its respected network, an unprecedented escalation of global economic pressure to halt Iran’s suspected drive for nuclear weapons.

Quicker than a succession of slow-acting economic sanctions, expelling Iran from the banking hub could put a sudden choke hold on its oil-dependent economy. The move was made under strong pressure from the United States and the European Union, which are looking for ways to derail Iran’s nuclear program quickly without a military strike.

“If SWIFT follows through on its public commitment to ban Iranian banks, it could sever the Iranian regime’s financial lifeline,” said Mark Dubowitz, an Iran sanctions expert advising the Obama administration.

“It would also be a significant political embarrassment for the regime: Iran would be the first country in SWIFT’s history to be expelled from what is the financial equivalent of the United Nations.”

The European Union is expected to act within weeks to effectively cut off major Iranian banks from participation in The Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication, known as SWIFT. It’s a move of last resort, with risks ranging from huge inflation and financial hardship for ordinary Iranians to disruption and price increases on the world oil market.

Iran could also retaliate in unpredictable ways.

The EU has already imposed the first embargo on Iranian oil, to take effect this summer. The strongest-yet U.S. sanctions on Iran’s lifeblood oil sector are due later this year.

SWIFT said in a statement on its web site that it will comply with the expected instruction to cut off Iranian banks. SWIFT has previously brushed off international efforts to use its network to target countries or companies, telling enforcers that it does not judge the merits of the transactions passing through the portal.

SWIFT’s statement said the decision essentially to kick out a member country “reflects the extraordinary and highly exceptional circumstances of significant multilateral international support for the intensification of sanctions against Iran.”
