House approves measure to keep courts open Abortion proposals also among Thursday’s legislative developments

By John Hanna and Melissa Hellmann Associated Press

Topeka — A bill aimed at keeping Kansas’ courts open following a legal dispute involving their budget was approved Thursday by the state House of Representatives.

The measure passed by a 119-0 vote and goes next to the Senate. It would repeal a 2015

law threatening the court system’s budget.

Downtown sees increase in retail space vacancies ——

But city’s rate still under KC’s, national average

A KANSAS UNIVERSITY STUDENT WALKS INTO LIGHT, BLOWING SNOW on the campus Thursday morning.

Lawrence saw increased vacancies in retail spaces in 2015, especially downtown, but the city’s vacancy rate still remained well below the Kansas City metro area’s rate and the national average, according to an annual study of such data.

A new commercial real estate report by the Lawrence office of real estate organization Colliers International found the city’s retail vacancy rate was 4.3 percent at the end of 2015 — up from 3.9 percent the year prior. Kansas City’s vacancy was reported at more than 7.5 percent, and the national average is about 5.5 percent.

“Retail remained strong and consistent with vacancy increasing ever so slightly,” said Allison Vance Moore, a senior vice president with Colliers.

“Overall, 2015 was a very healthy and

Dollar CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A

As for Dollar General, if you are not familiar with that chain, you evidently don’t eat enough nacho cheese-flavored chips.

This will be the third Dollar General store in Lawrence, with one in North Lawrence and a longtime one just east of Sixth and Iowa streets.

The stores carry a little bit of everything, including a line of nonperishable food items, health and beauty supplies, cleaning supplies, diapers and other baby items, pet food, school and office supplies, and a toy section.

The Dollar General development likely will fill a bit of a void in eastern Lawrence. That side of town lost its Family Dollar store at 23rd and Louisiana streets when the company closed several of its stores across the country in late 2014.

And not that the stores

Vacancies CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A

Though the overall vacancy rate increased only slightly, the closely watched downtown rate nearly doubled, jumping to 5.38 percent from 2.7 percent at the end of 2014.

Moore attributed the high vacancy rate to the Lawrence Public Library vacating the old Borders building, as well as the still-empty M&M Office Supply. The report shows there is about 70,000 square feet of empty retail space downtown — the second highest square footage available by sector, after south Iowa Street.

“Other than these two sizable projects, the balance of downtown remains healthy with otherwise low vacancy,” Moore said.

Because Lawrence is forecast to have a limited supply of overall empty retail space available in 2016, Moore said there’s an expectation to see occupation of the former M&M Office Supply and Borders buildings this year.

Both Moore and Joe Flannery, president of Weaver’s, said during a Colliers forecast event Thursday that ongoing apartment projects would boost downtown retail.

Flannery said the current condition of downtown has “never been brighter.”

He listed ongoing and recently finished projects, such as TownePlace Suites at Ninth and New Hampshire streets, The Eldridge expansion, the East Lawrence Project and apartment projects at Eighth and New Hampshire and Ninth and New Hampshire, saying “we’ve never had this many projects going on at one time.”

“There’s a lot of excitement and energy,” Flannery said. “It’s advantageous to retailers.”

Dana Anderson, a longtime leader of The Macerich Company who said he’s invested in some downtown apartment projects, also weighed in on the state of Lawrence’s downtown.

are overly similar, but you’ve perhaps noticed the Bargain Depot at 23rd and Harper streets also has closed. That business was a discount store that carried some household items, tools, sporting goods and other such items. That will be a site worth keeping an eye on because it is a fairly large location on a highly visible part of 23rd Street.

The folks at Lawrence’s Colliers International office are seeking a new tenant for that location.

Back to Dollar General, I don’t have a timeline for the store to open.

But the site at 19th and Haskell already has the proper zoning in place, so all that is needed are a few technical design approvals from the city’s Planning Department.

Those approvals could happen in the next several weeks, which would clear the way for construction to begin.

— This is an excerpt from Chad Lawhorn’s Town Talk column, which appears each weekday at LJWorld.com.

Anderson said city leaders should “do all they can to encourage residential development downtown” because it will help retail and restaurant sales. That sentiment was echoed by Moore.

“The additional investment and expansion in downtown with the focus on more residential units will continue to drive demand forward for retail services and entertainment, all of which combines to keep a downtown vibrant and healthy,” she said.

The vacancy rate on south Iowa Street also increased in 2015, up to 4.56 percent from 3.8 at the end of 2014. It also had the most available square footage of any other area, with slightly more than 100,000 square feet. Colliers forecast that more redevelopment would happen in that area of the city in 2016.

The highest vacancy rate was on East 23rd Street, which was reported as having a 12.33 percent vacancy rate and about 40,000 square feet of empty space. The vacancy rate is up from 11.5 at the end of 2014.

Because of the low overall vacancy rates, space is tight, Moore said.

The low rates, coupled with increased interest from new retailers, could mean new sites need to be developed.

The report also included office and industrial vacancy rates. l The industrial vacancy rate fell to a historic low of 3.49 percent in 2015, down from 6.1 percent at the end of 2014. Moore said new and expanding industrial businesses might struggle to find space this year, and, with the limited inventory, that kind of property would see rent increases. l The office vacancy rate ended 2015 at 8.79 percent, which is down from 9.6 a year ago and its lowest rate in more than a decade. Downtown had the highest office space vacancy rate, at 16.31 percent, but the report forecasts most of that will be absorbed in 2016.

The Supreme Court invalidated the 2014 law last month, saying it improperly infringed on the power granted to the justices under the state constitution to administer the courts.

The testimony came on the eve of an anticipated Kansas Supreme Court ruling on the legality of a voter-approved Wichita ordinance relaxing penalties for possessing small amounts of marijuana.

able to have justice.”

Topeka, said there has been a growing trend in recent years of legislators leaving office and immediately accepting jobs as lobbyists for organizations that were frequently before the committees on which they served.

The two most recent examples, he said, were former Rep. Steve Brunk, R-Wichita, who was recently hired to lead the Kansas Family Policy Council, and former Rep. Travis Couture-Lovelady, sponsor of numerous gun rights bills, who resigned to become a multistate lobbyist for the National Rifle Association.

“And then there’s the poster boy for this bill, former House Speaker Mike O’Neal,” Hensley said, referring to the Hutchinson Republican who was hired as president and CEO of the Kansas Chamber soon after leaving office in 2013.

“In 2012, using his position as speaker, O’Neal strong-armed the House into passing the Kansas Chamber’s No. 1 legislative priority, Sam Brownback’s income tax cuts,” Hensley said.

Although some of the bills discussed Thursday have been introduced in earlier sessions, others were still being drafted at the time of the news conference. It wasn’t clear whether Republican leaders who control the House and Senate would allow the bills to be heard in committees.

rado to gain access to medical marijuana that remains illegal in Kansas.

He added that the section of the bill allowing for medical hemp preparations to treat seizures was “not enough,” so he testified against it.

Several other opponents echoed Schwab’s concerns that the bill did not encompass their ailments, which ranged from chronic pain to depression. The dissenters said that a broader version of the measure could reverse rampant abuse of prescription drugs.

Law enforcement representatives differed with the veterans, saying that the bill would be a gateway to medi-

cal marijuana usage. Ed Klumpp, a lobbyist for the Kansas Association of Chiefs of Police, said that the loose restrictions on the measure posed a public safety threat.

“These bills tend to be a precursor to the broader legalization of marijuana,” Klumpp said.

He added that the bill would increase costs for crime labs and create a need for more personnel to differentiate the usage of medical marijuana from recreational.

Committee Chairman Greg Smith, an Overland Park Republican, said that the senators would continue discussing the bill next week.

Kansas state universities accepted a total of 815 freshmen who didn’t meet the schools’ minimum admission requirements last year, according to a Kansas Board of Regents Report.

These “exceptions” made up as little as a fraction of 1 percent to as high as 7 percent of each university’s entire 20142015 in-state freshman class, according to the report. Exceptions made up 1 percent to 10 percent of universities’ out-of-state freshmen admissions.

The Regents this week approved forwarding their Annual Report on Qualified Admissions to the Kansas Legislature, as

required by law. The report also sparked discussion on whether newly instated — and tougher — automatic admission standards will negatively affect future reports.

Kansas University’s exception rate of half a percent of in-state freshmen and 2 percent of outof-state freshmen was the state’s second-lowest, according to the report.

Wichita State University had the lowest percentage of exceptions, with two-tenths of a percent of in-state freshmen and 1 percent of out-of-state freshmen. Fort Hays State University had the highest, with 6.9 percent of in-state freshmen and 9.7 percent of out-of-state freshmen.

815 students admitted in 2015 didn’t meet minimum standards

Topeka — Committees in both the House and Senate held hearings Thursday on bills that would let small breweries in Kansas double their production, raising the limit to 60,000 barrels per year.

Philip Bradley, who lobbies for the Craft Brewers Guild of Kansas, said Manhattan-based Tallgrass Brewing Company is seeking the bill, although it would benefit an entire industry that has grown rapidly in recent years.

“There are currently 33 microbrewery licenses in Kansas,” Bradley said, noting that some brands, such as Lawrence-based Free State Brewing Co., hold multiple licenses. “We are growing and we are meeting the needs and demands of the Kansas consumer.”

Thirteen of those microbreweries have opened in just the last five years, he said.

The microbrewers asked for a similar bill in 2014, but lawmakers would agree at that time only to raise the cap to the current limit of 30,000 barrels per year. Bradley said he was told by committee chairmen then to come back if

they needed the cap raised beyond that.

“Well, we’re back,” he told the House Federal and State Affairs Committee.

This year, he said, the push is mainly for Tallgrass Brewery, which has invested nearly $7 million in its new plant in Manhattan and now exports beer to 14 other states.

Jeff Gill, the CEO and owner of Tallgrass, was unable to attend the hearings because of heavy snow Thursday in Manhattan. But he submitted written testimony saying his company needs the higher limit “to remain strong and competitive with breweries in other states and continue our pattern of revenue growth and job creation in Kansas.”

Under Kansas law, microbreweries are taxed at a lower rate than full-scale manufacturers. They also are allowed to operate brew pubs where they can serve their own products in the same building where they’re made.

Bradley said the industry believes there does need to be a limit on microbreweries in order to maintain a distinction between them and large manufacturers such as Please see BREWS, page 5A

W

ith a name like “tiger cry,” Baan Thai’s beef appetizer is, you might assume, spicy. And you would be right.

So christened — our waiter guessed — because the heat from the sauce (a mixture of unnamed peppers, we’re told) could make even a tiger shed tears, the flavorful appetizer consists of grilled, marinated beef and the aforementioned “spicy tiger cry sauce.”

Be careful with this one. Refrain from dumping an overflowing spoonful of sauce onto a single piece of beef (because you’re hungry, OK?) and devouring the mixture with reckless abandon, or your tender, burning gums will pay for it.

Man pleads no contest in shooting, gets 3 years probation Brews

By Conrad Swanson Twitter: @Conrad_Swanson

A Lawrence man who was scheduled to stand trial next week for a September shooting that sent a 16-year-old boy to the hospital has pleaded no contest and is currently under supervised probation.

On Sept. 18, Anthony Jermaine Taylor, 19, hit the victim in the side of the head with a handgun and shot Taylor him as he ran away, according to an arrest affidavit filed in Douglas County District Court. The victim’s name was not released because of his age.

The victim was shot

Gary Alexander, the Regents vice president of academic affairs, said the law allows such exceptions to automatic admissions standards to make up as much as 10 percent of each school’s freshman admissions.

Percentage-wise, he said, “the numbers are really very low.”

Prior to 2001, Kansas universities guaranteed admission to anyone who graduated from an accredited Kansas high school, according to the Regents.

Then automatic admission standards got higher, requiring freshmen to score at least 21 on the ACT, graduate in the top third of their class or complete a specific precollege curriculum with a GPA of at least 2.0.

However, state universities have the discretion to admit freshmen who don’t meet those criteria.

According to the Regents,

once in the left leg but was still able to escape. He was treated at Lawrence Memorial Hospital and released the same day.

At the time of the incident, the victim had been standing in his home parking lot in the 2100 block of Carolina Street with two friends, the affidavit says. Taylor wore a mask when he approached the three on foot.

The victim later identified Taylor, the affidavit says.

The nature of their relationship was not made public.

Taylor was arrested Sept. 19 and charged with felony aggravated battery. He pleaded no

contest on Dec. 3.

A plea of no contest, as opposed to a guilty plea, means the defendant does not wish to contest the state’s charges.

After a pre-sentence investigation Taylor and his attorney asked Douglas County Judge Robert Fairchild for a lesser sentence, according to a motion filed in Douglas County District Court. In light of Taylor’s past criminal history and his potential for rehabilitation, the prosecutors supported Taylor’s request.

On Jan. 12, Taylor was sentenced to serve three years in supervised probation followed by another three years of post-supervision with an underlying prison sentence of 45

every student admitted as an exception is supposed to have an “individual success plan.”

The 2014-2015 qualified admissions report approved Wednesday will be the last under those old standards.

This year new automatic admission standards for freshmen went into effect at five state schools. All in-state freshmen must complete an approved curriculum with a 2.0 GPA, plus score at least 21 on the ACT (980 on the SAT) or graduate in the top third of their class.

KU’s new automatic admission criteria, which apply to freshmen starting in fall 2016, are tougher.

In addition to completing an approved college-prep curriculum, students must have a 3.0 high school GPA and score 24 on the ACT (1090 on the SAT), or have a 3.25 GPA and score 21 on the ACT (980 on the SAT).

Students who don’t meet those criteria will have their applications reviewed by a committee, according to a KU announcement from 2012,

when the new standards were approved. The committee will consider factors such as strength of high school coursework, academic potential, diversity, family circumstances and the student’s ability to benefit from support available at the university.

“Having these new standards will help students be prepared and hopefully avoid the initial challenges some students experience when they start college. We’ll also be able to direct the right support services to students when they arrive here,” KU Chancellor Bernadette Gray-Little said in the announcement.

On Wednesday, some Regents expressed concerns about possible negative effects of tougher automatic admission standards.

“I’m very concerned,” Regent Ann BrandauMurguia said.

She said she worried tougher requirements might deter some of the very populations universities need to attract, such as minority or economically

months in the Department of Corrections.

Taylor was ordered not to consume drugs or alcohol during his probation, and he is subject to random testing, according to a motion filed in Douglas County District Court. He is also ordered not to have contact with the victim and must either further his education or get a job.

Taylor must also register as a violent offender for 15 years, the motion says.

If Taylor violates the terms of his probation, he could be ordered to fulfill his underlying prison sentence of 45 months.

Anheuser-Busch or Miller Brewing Co. Near the end of the hearing, though, confusion arose over what the current limits really mean.

Bradley said he has always understood the limit to apply to each “brand,” such as Free State or Tallgrass.

But Debbi Beavers, interim director of the Kansas Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control, told the panel that it applies to each license, so Tallgrass technically could produce up to 60,000 barrels a year if it obtained another license, and built another facility.

another massive investment in another new plant and new brewing equipment. And he said Tallgrass’ current plant is designed to be capable of producing four times the current limit.

Chuck Magerl, owner of Free State Brewing Co., said he had no position on the bill because his company can work with the current 30,000-barrel limit.

“As things stand now, that’s adequate for us,” he said.

Two separate bills are being run simultaneously through House and Senate committees. The chairs of those committees did not indicate when they plan to take action on the bills.

Freshman exceptions Following are the numbers of freshmen accepted to state universities in 20142015 as exceptions to automatic admission standards, followed by the percent of the class they make up.

In-state students Wichita State — 8 (0.2 percent) Kansas University — 68 (0.5 percent) Kansas State — 83 (0.9 percent) Pittsburg State — 68 (3.2 percent) Emporia State — 91 (5.8 percent) Fort Hays State — 127 (6.9 percent)

disadvantaged students — even if there is room for them to be admitted as exceptions.

“We have had concerns raised about the impact it may have on enrollment,” said Alexander, the Regents vice president of academic affairs.

Alexander said the new standards still allow for exceptions and that they really shouldn’t have much effect. However, officials can’t yet say for sure what changes they will see.

“We’re tasked to monitor the impact of these requirements and be able to answer your question with some real data,” he said.

Board of Regents

chairman Shane Bangerter said he expects that raising the standards “raises the bar.”

“What it will do is to motivate kids to be better prepared,” he said.

Several university leaders echoed that.

Pittsburg State University President Steve Scott said his school clearly communicates expectations with high schools so college-bound students know what’s required.

“They’ll have a fouryear runway, in essence,” Scott said. “That’s part of the initiative — to elevate their work, their standards, and then students come to us better prepared.”

Fort Hays State University President Mirta Martin said for some students who don’t meet minimum admission requirements, Fort Hays advisers may suggest they begin their education at a community college.

Martin said they don’t want to admit students who aren’t positioned for success, because if a student fails out and returns home after a semester or a year, “the likelihood of them returning to higher education is almost exponentially zero.”

Husband’s gripes could signal serious problem Dear Annie: Please help me before I pull my hair out. I am 40 and have been married for the last eight years to a man I love more than I thought possible.

My dilemma is that he complains all the time about aches and pains. Not a day goes by that there isn’t some ailment bothering him.

I have tried to think back to earlier in our relationship, and I don’t recall whether he’s always done this and I had blinders on, or if his complaints have become more frequent.

Granted, he has had his share of minor health problems, but so have I and many other people.

Maggie Gyllenhaal (“The Honorable Woman”) narrates the 10-part documentary series “Truth and Power” (9 p.m., Pivot, TV-14), an examination of how public and private institutions, including the news media and the government, break the law and lose the public’s trust. Each half-hour episode examines a different case of individuals who have gone to extraordinary lengths, often risking their own freedom and livelihoods, to reveal corporate exploitation and corruption and/or government infringement on civil liberties.

“Truth” debuts with a look at the “Black Lives Matter” movement. Next Friday’s installment examines government-sponsored spyware. Later episodes will document the cozy collusion between state and local governments and the private prison system.

Aimed at millennials and younger viewers, Pivot is carried on Dish and Direct TV as well as many cable systems in the upper digital tier. Among its more popular offerings is “Human Resources,” a documentary-style comedy set at a green technology company.

A tough sell Reducing K-12 administrative costs is a popular notion, but a plan to do that by combining school districts is likely to meet with some opposition.

A

plan floated this week to reorganize local school districts across the state could be one of the more contentious issues tackled this year by the Kansas Legislature.

Rep. John Bradford, R-Lansing, has come up with a measure that would cut the number of school districts in Kansas by more than half. He’s carefully calling his plan a “reorganization” rather than “consolidation,” which still stirs bad memories from the 1960s when the state forced the elimination of hundreds of small school districts.

Bradford told the House Federal and State Affairs Committee that his plan would reduce the number of districts to 132, from the current 286, and leave 99 of the state’s 105 counties with a single district. The goal of the plan is to reduce administrative and other costs related to operating so many individual districts.

Any county with fewer than 10,000 public school students would have just one district. Counties with more than 10,000 students could have multiple districts, but each district would have to serve at least 1,500 students. Half of the state’s districts now have 550 or fewer students, and 69 have enrollments under 300. Because of its total number of students and the size of its smaller districts, Douglas County wouldn’t be affected by the plan, Bradford told the Journal-World on Thursday.

Reducing costs is a hot topic when it comes to K-12 education in Kansas, and Bradford estimated his plan could save the state about $173 million over 10 years. Some of the savings would come from selling unnecessary equipment and administrative buildings, but most would come from reducing the size and support costs for administrative staffs.

The revenue from selling property would be a one-time gain, but Bradford estimated the ongoing savings would be about $16 million a year, based on data compiled from a statewide survey.

Bradford emphasized that his plan wouldn’t close any schools or eliminate any teaching positions. It also will leave it up to one-district counties to decide whether they will maintain multiple school boards, although having more than one board per district wouldn’t seem to promote efficiency.

Although the plan doesn’t call for closing any schools, some legislators said that combining districts likely would lead to school closures down the road. That is the only way to realize significant savings, they say.

The House Federal and State Affairs Committee agreed this week to sponsor Bradford’s plan as a bill. The plan is worth a look, but it is sure to raise concerns in rural counties that want to preserve their schools and as much local control as possible. Closing schools is never a popular notion, and unless people are convinced the plan will produce long-term, ongoing savings, it likely will be a tough sell across the state.

Iran prisoner swap used as distraction Washington — Give President Obama credit. His Iran nuclear deal may be disastrous but the packaging was brilliant. The near-simultaneous prisoner exchange was meant to distract from last Saturday’s official implementation of the sanctions-lifting deal. And it did.

The Republicans concentrated almost all their fire on the swap sideshow.

And in denouncing the swap, they were wrong. True, we should have made the prisoner release a precondition for negotiations. But that pre-emptive concession was made long ago (among many others, such as granting Iran in advance the right to enrich uranium). The remaining question was getting our prisoners released before we gave away all our leverage upon implementation of the nuclear accord. We did.

Republicans say: We shouldn’t negotiate with terror states. But we do and we should. How else do you get hostages back? And yes, of course negotiating encourages further hostage taking.

But there is always something to be gained by kidnapping Americans. This swap does not affect that truth one way or the other.

And here, we didn’t give away much. The seven released Iranians, none of whom has blood on his hands, were sanctions busters (and a hacker), and sanctions are essentially over now. The slate is clean.

But how unfair, say the critics. We released prisoners duly convicted in a court of law. Iran released perfect-

In a stroke, Iran shed almost four decades of roguestate status and was declared a citizen of good standing of the international community, open to trade, investment and diplomacy.”

ly innocent, unjustly jailed hostages.

Yes, and so what? That’s just another way of saying we have the rule of law, they don’t. It doesn’t mean we abandon our hostages. Natan Sharansky was a prisoner of conscience who spent eight years in the Gulag on totally phony charges. He was exchanged for two real Soviet spies. Does anyone think we should have said no?

The one valid criticism of the Iranian swap is that we left one, perhaps two, Americans behind and unaccounted for. True. But the swap itself was perfectly reasonable. And cleverly used by the administration to create a heartwarming human interest story to overshadow

a rotten diplomatic deal, just as the Alan Gross release sweetened a Cuba deal that gave the store away to the Castro brothers.

The real story of Saturday, Jan. 16, 2016 — “Implementation Day” of the Iran deal — was that it marks a historic inflection point in the geopolitics of the Middle East.

In a stroke, Iran shed almost four decades of rogue-state status and was declared a citizen of good standing of the international community, open to trade, investment and diplomacy. This, without giving up, or even promising to change, its policy of subversion and aggression. This, without having forfeited its status as the world’s greatest purveyor of terrorism.

Overnight, it went not just from pariah to player but from pariah to dominant regional power, flush with $100 billion in unfrozen assets and virtually free of international sanctions. The oil trade alone will pump tens of billions of dollars into its economy.

The day after Implementation Day, President Hassan Rouhani predicted 5 percent growth — versus the contracting, indeed hemorrhaging, economy in pre-negotiation 2012 and 2013.

On Saturday, the Iranian transport minister announced the purchase of 114 Airbuses from Europe. This inaugurates a rush of deals binding European companies to Iran, thoroughly undermining Obama’s pipedream of “snapback sanctions” if Iran cheats.

Cash-rich, reconnected with global banking and com-

merce, and facing an Arab world collapsed into a miasma of raging civil wars, Iran has instantly become the dominant power of the Middle East. Not to worry, argued the administration. The nuclear opening will temper Iranian adventurism and empower Iranian moderates.

The opposite is happening.

And it’s not just the ostentatious, illegal ballistic missile launches; not just Iran’s president reacting to the most puny retaliatory sanctions by ordering his military to accelerate the missile program; not just the videotaped and broadcast humiliation of seized U.S. sailors.

Look at what the mullahs are doing at home. Within hours of “implementation,” the regime disqualified 2,967 of roughly 3,000 moderate candidates from even running in parliamentary elections next month. And just to make sure we got the point, the supreme leader reiterated that Iranian policy — aggressively interventionist and immutably anti-American — continues unchanged.

In 1938, the morning after Munich, Europe woke up to Germany as the continent’s dominant power. Last Sunday, the Middle East woke up to Iran as the regional hegemon, with a hand — often predominant — in the future of Syria, Yemen, Iraq, the Gulf Arab states and, in time, in the very survival of Israel.

And we’re arguing over an asymmetric hostage swap.

Merit pay for teachers a ridiculous idea

By Kristie Mullenix

Gov. Sam Brownback seems to think paying teachers based on the merit of each student’s performance will fix what is wrong with education. I would like to share an idea with our state’s governor based on my own experience of working in our educational system.

I was wondering if he would also be creating a required taxation system with a varied payment schedule? This system would charge parents/guardians based on their children’s academic success. A system could be created that would have increased payments due to the state at the end of each semester or end of school year based on the assessment and progress reports of each child.

The payment gets Mullenix larger as the grades slide lower.

If teachers are going to be held accountable, then parents/guardians should also be held accountable for their children’s success. Every school day we see more and more students show up to school who have not completed homework, they have not prepared for exams, they are tired, they have not had breakfast, they are late and missed the breakfast that is offered at school, they are more concerned

YOUR TURN about extra curricular activities than academics, they are uninterested in learning, etc.

Why are teachers the only ones being held accountable for what and how a child performs in the classroom? If we have become a society that truly believes a teacher is solely responsible for a student’s success, we should step back and take another look at this situation.

If teachers are going to be paid at levels solely based on student success, we need to consider what financial source does our state have to make these varied payments to the teachers.

Gov. Brownback could create a system that also gives responsibility and expectations back to the home front.

The income from this special taxation system could then be earmarked to pay the increased wages for each district staff that has proven their worth through their students’ grades. This would be a fantastic way to support this proposal our state governor seriously seems to think will work.

I know in my own household, my tax payments on such a system would have been taken very seriously and still we would have had some high and some low tax payments to make after each term. Even when we made grades, homework and classroom expectations a priority each night, we did not

always see the results we were hoping to see on every progress report. The difference is, we took our share of responsibility as parents and we also gave a level of responsibility to teachers along the way. However, we placed the majority of academic responsibilities on our own children. They in turn had to live with the rewards and consequences they received throughout their educational careers.

Merit pay for teachers is incredibly ridiculous and so is creating a plan like I have suggested. A child is a small human that can be supported and encouraged by parents, teachers and the many other adults who influence their lives. They can be guided, advised, taught and supported by so many people during their public school career. They can do well, they can do poorly, or they can perform in a mediocre style.

My point to all of this is one classroom teacher should never be considered the sole responsible source of a student’s classroom success or failure, thus their personal income should not be required to reflect a class’ success or failure. There are far too many other variables in the life of a child to hold one adult responsible.

FBI ran website sharing thousands of child porn images

WASHINGTON For nearly two weeks last year, the FBI operated what it described as one of the Internet’s largest child pornography websites, allowing users to download thousands of illicit images and videos from a government site in the Washington suburbs.

The operation — whose details remain largely secret — was at least the third time in recent years that FBI agents took control of a child pornography site but left it online in an attempt to

catch users who officials said would otherwise remain hidden behind an encrypted and anonymous computer network. In each case, the FBI infected the sites with software that punctured that security, allowing agents to identify hundreds of users.

The Justice Department acknowledged in court filings that the FBI operated the site, known as Playpen, from Feb. 20 to March 4, 2015. The site had more than 215,000 registered users and included links to more than 23,000 sexually explicit images and videos of children, including more than 9,000 files

users could download directly from the FBI. Some of the images described in court filings involved children barely old enough for kindergarten.

That approach is a significant departure from the government’s past tactics for battling online child porn, in which agents were instructed to not allow images of children being sexually assaulted to become public. The Justice Department has said children depicted in such images are harmed each time they are viewed, and once those images leave the govern-

Europe ‘can’t cope’ with refugee tide Leaders want crisis contained by spring Kim Hjelmgaard USA TODAY

“We had a window of opportunity to get into one of the darkest places on Earth and not a lot of other options except to not do it. There was no other way we could identify as many players.”

DAVOS , SWITZERLAND European leaders warned Thursday that the Continent’s refugee crisis is growing, and if it’s not brought under control by spring, it could push the region past the breaking point.

“We see today that in the first three weeks of the year, there were 35,000 people crossing the (Aegean Sea to Greece) from Turkey,” Mark Rutte, Holland’s prime minister, said. “Last year, it was only 1,600 in the full month of January. When spring comes, the numbers will quadruple. We can’t cope with these numbers any longer.”

Rutte said.

“What is happening in the Aegean is a great shame for our common European culture and civilization. On a daily basis we are faced with a death toll in the sea because (people) traffickers are working there unimpeded,” he said.

German Finance Minister Wolfgang Schäuble said the entire European political leadership agreed the influx was too high, but it would be a “disgrace if Europe were turned into a fortress.”

Nearly 4,000 people drowned trying to reach Europe in 2015, the United Nations’ refugee agency estimated. This year, 95 people have died crossing the Mediterranean Sea, according to the International Organization for Migration.

Swedish Prime Minister Stefan Löfven told USA TODAY he was not “naive enough to think that” getting all 28 EU member states to live up to their responsibilities “was going to be easy.”

TSA discovered a record 2,653 guns at airports last year Most of intercepted weapons loaded Bart Jansen USA TODAY

A record 2,653 guns were found last year at airport checkpoints, and more than 80% of those guns were loaded, the Transportation Security Administration announced Thursday.

The total is a 20% increase from the 2,212 found in 2014, and the discoveries represent a steady rise from 660 guns found WASHINGTON

in 2005 through 1,123 in 2010.

“The transport of firearms by commercial air in carry-on bags represents a threat to the safety and security of air travelers,” TSA Administrator Peter Neffenger says. “Through increased training in detection methods, our officers are becoming more adept at intercepting these prohibited items.”

Travelers who bring firearms or ammunition to checkpoints are subject to civil fines from the TSA and possible criminal penalties from police.

Guns can be transported in checked bags, but they must be unloaded and packed properly.

VOICES

The Palestra, college hoops cathedral Rem Rieder

“It’s like going to Lambeau Field in Green Bay. You walk in and you know immediately you are in a special place.”

USA TODAY

PHILADELPHIA They call it The Cathedral, for good reason.

The Palestra is a sacred place for people who care about college basketball, a true shrine.

Located on the campus of the University of Pennsylvania in West Philadelphia, the Palestra debuted in 1927. It has hosted more college hoops games than any venue in the country. With its rich history, its mystique and its distinctive personality, it has been called the Wrigley Field of college basketball.

No longer does it feature twice-a-week doubleheaders as it did when it was the unquestioned home of the Big Five schools in basketball crazy Philadelphia: La Salle, Penn, Saint Joseph’s, Temple and Villanova.

Now they play on their own campuses.

But it’s no museum — it’s Penn’s home court — and Wednesday marked a back-tothe-future doubleheader featuring four of those teams, a night to celebrate the Big Five’s 60th birthday and the enduring fabulousness of the Palestra itself.

What makes the Palestra so special? Well, there are those graceful arches, the bright lighting, the gleaming floor. But the true key is the intimacy. It’s

small, just one level, with seats coming right down to the floor.

(For years the capacity crowd was 9,208. After some renovations, that total dropped to 8,722.) When the game is intense, the noise is unbelievable, a Wall of Sound that would do Phil Spector proud. There’s not a bad seat in the house.

And hardly a comfortable one, mostly backless benches crammed closely together. Don’t look for high-tech touches or amenities. It’s totally old-school, and that’s part of the beauty.

And then there are the rituals, some a thing of the past. The streamers tossed to the floor af-

ter the local team’s first basket.

The rollouts unfurled by the students poking fun at the opposition. (One of my favorites: When the Purple Eagles of Niagara had a player named Manny Leaks, a La Salle rollout read, “Explorers spot Manny Leaks in Eagles’ defense.”) The Hawk, St. Joe’s mascot, running endless figure eights during every break in the action as the fans chant “The Hawk will never die.” Yo Yo, the ageless homeless guy who somehow showed up at every game and became the Palestra’s very own mascot. The public address announcer crediting both the scorer and the guy who made

the assist.

“I don’t think there’s a place on earth that is comparable to it,” Les Keiter, the voice of the Big Five in the 1960s, once said, adding, “You talk about the Field of Dreams in baseball, this was my Field of Dreams.” Once, when his Field of Dreams was evacuated, Keiter stayed inside to announce a bomb scare.

My pal the journalist Mark Lisheron, who grew up in Milwaukee and lives in Austin, is a huge college hoops guy. He knew his résumé was incomplete until he made his Palestra debut. “It’s like going to Lambeau Field in Green Bay,” the storied home of

the Packers, he says. “You walk in and you know immediately you are in a special place.”

The Palestra has played a major role in the life of Fran Dunphy, a Philly guy who now coaches at Temple. As a kid growing up in suburban Drexel Hill he went to the doubleheaders. He played there when he was at La Salle. Before moving to Temple, he coached at Penn, where, as he likes to say, he had the key to the Palestra’s front door. “It is magical. It’s majestic,” he told me. “It’s not describable. You have to experience it.”

Bill Raftery, the highly regarded TV basketball analyst known for his catch phrases — “Onions!”; “With a kiss” — was once a highly recruited high school basketball player. After one visit to the Palestra for a La Salle-St. Joe’s game, he knew that he was going to La Salle. “I had been to (Madison Square) Garden, but I had never seen anything like the spirit that night.”

At the doubleheader Wednesday night, the electricity wasn’t at its peak. Both games were kind of sloppy, neither was that close and the decibel level was disappointing. The highlight: one member of each team from each decade was honored. I got chills seeing so many greats from the glorious Philly hoops past. And, as always, it was wonderful to be in The Cathedral.

The Palestra will never die!

Extreme tactics were only option, officials say v CONTINUED FROM 1B

ment’s control, agents have no way to prevent them from being copied and recopied to other parts of the Internet.

Officials acknowledged those risks but said they had no other way to identify the people accessing the sites.

“We had a window of opportunity to get into one of the darkest places on Earth and not a lot of other options except to not do it,” said Ron Hosko, a former senior FBI official who was involved in planning one of the agency’s first efforts to take over a child porn site. “There was no other way we could identify as many players.”

Lawyers for child pornography victims expressed surprise that the FBI would agree to such tactics — in part because agents had rejected them in the past — but nonetheless said they approved.

“These are places where people know exactly what they’re getting when they arrive,” said James Marsh, who represents some of the children depicted in some of the most widely circulated images. “It’s not like they’re blasting it out to the world.”

The FBI hacks have drawn repeated — though unsuccessful — legal challenges, largely centered on the search warrants agents obtained before agents cracked the computer network.

They also have prompted a backlash of a different kind. In a court filing, a lawyer for one of the men arrested after the FBI sting charged that “what the government did in this case is comparable to flooding a neighborhood with heroin in the hope of snatching an assortment of low-level drug users.” The defense lawyer, Colin Fieman, asked a federal judge to throw out child pornography charges against his client, former middle school teacher Jay Michaud.

Federal agents noticed Playpen not long after it went online in August 2014. The site was buried in what is often called the “dark Web,” a part of the Internet that is accessible to the public only through Tor, network software that bounces users’ Internet traffic from one computer to another to make it largely untraceable.

By March of last year, the FBI said, Playpen had grown to become “the largest remaining known child pornography hidden service in the world,” the Justice Department said in a court filing.

FBI agents tracked the site to computer servers in North Carolina and in February seized the site and quietly moved it to its own facility in Newington, Va. The FBI kept Playpen online for 13 days. During that time, federal prosecutors told defense lawyers, the site included more than 23,000 sexually explicit images and videos of children. Some of

BRAD HEATH, USA TODAY

those could be downloaded directly from the government’s computers; others were available through links to other hard-tofind locations on the Web, Fieman said.

One section of the site was labeled “toddlers,” according to court records. Prosecutors said some of the images users accessed during the time Playpen was under the government’s control included a “prepubescent female” having sexual intercourse with adults.

Fieman said more than

to take over the site and infect it with malware that would trick users’ Web browsers into revealing their real Internet addresses, which agents could trace back to the people using them.

“The government always considers seizing an illegal child pornography site and removing it from existence immediately and permanently,” Justice Department spokesman Peter Carr said.

“While doing so would end the trafficking of child pornography taking place on that one website, it would do nothing to prevent those same users from disseminating “What the government child pornography did ... is comparable to through other means.” flooding a neighborhood Still, he said, with heroin in the hope of “The decision whether to simply snatching an assortment shut down a webof low-level drug users.” site or to allow it to continue operating Defense lawyer Colin Fieman for a brief period for a law enforce100,000 Playpen registered users ment purpose is a difficult one.” visited the site while it was under The Justice Department said the FBI’s control.

The FBI was first known to have operated a child porn site in 2012, when agents seized control of three sites from their operator in Nebraska. FBI Special Agent Jeff Tarpinian testified that the government “relocated two servers to an FBI facility here in Omaha, and we continued to let that child pornography run.”

That case led to federal child pornography charges against at least 25 people. In an illustration of how difficult the cases can be, at least nine of the people charged in those cases are identified in court records only as “John Doe,” suggesting the FBI has been unable to link specific people to the network addresses it logged.

The next year, the FBI took control of a dark website known as Freedom Hosting. The man prosecutors have accused of operating that site, Eric Marques, is due to be extradited to the USA; the charges against him remain sealed. The FBI revealed its role in an Irish court hearing covered by local media.

In each case, the FBI injected the site with malware to crack Tor’s anonymity.

Those hacks, developed with the help of outside contractors, were a technical milestone. When the FBI realized it could break through Tor, Hosko said, the agency gathered counterterrorism investigators and intelligence agencies to see whether any of them had a more pressing need for the software. “It was this, exponentially,” Hosko said.

Wide snowstorm packing a punch Flights canceled as blizzards in East, tornadoes in South predicted Doyle Rice and John Bacon USA TODAY

SILVER SPRING, MD.

More than 1,000 flights were canceled, long lines formed at grocery stores and shovels were hard to find Thursday ahead of a potentially crippling snowstorm that threatened to slam the South, Mid-Atlantic and Northeast through the weekend.

Snowfall could approach 2 feet or more in some locations, including the Baltimore and Washington metro areas, where a rare blizzard warning will go into effect Friday afternoon. Air and road travel is expected to grind to a halt throughout much of the weekend as forecasters predict no way out of a monster storm that could hit 75 million people.

“Heavy snow and blowing snow will cause dangerous conditions and will be a threat to life and property,” the National Weather Service warned.

Washington Mayor Muriel Bowser, Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan and Virginia Gov. Terry McAuliffe declared states of emergency Thursday ahead of the storm.

In Washington, the city’s entire rail and bus system will be closed Saturday and Sunday, the Washington Area Metropolitan Transit Authority announced Thursday.

“This will be a rare event for the region as there are not many storms that bring a foot or more of snow over such a large area,” said AccuWeather chief meteorologist Elliot Abrams.

Millions of residents were heeding warnings to prepare for a weather siege that could take days to pass.

“We are busy, but we are getting people through,” Terry Sweet, manager of Snider’s Super Foods in Silver Spring, said Thursday afternoon. “It will get even more crazy. This is just the calm before the storm.”

More than 1,000 flights were

Shoppers stock up on snow shovels and other supplies at a hardware store in Bethesda, Md., on Thursday.

Traffic was mostly at a standstill on the I-495 Capital Beltway after just an inch of snow fell Wednesday. canceled for Friday and the weekend as of Thursday afternoon, many at the nation’s busiest hubs.

Far worse cancellations are likely through the weekend if the forecast holds — even in spots not hit by the storm.

“Although this is not an extreme Nor’easter, we do expect at least 200,000 travelers to be impacted over the next three days by cancellations and even more with delays,” said Daniel Baker, CEO of FlightAware.com, which tracks airline flights. “Airlines will be trying to recover on Sunday

morning to resume a mostly normal schedule by midday Sunday before Sunday afternoon and evening, one of the busiest travel periods of the week.”

In all, at least 75 million people will be affected from Arkansas to southern New England.

At least 30 million people live in blizzard warning and watch areas, which encompass all of the Washington, Baltimore, Philadelphia and New York City metro areas. Winds with gusts up to 55 mph will cause the blizzard conditions because of the exten-

sive blowing and drifting of snow.

The storm could rival some of the biggest on record in Washington, potentially topping the infamous 28-inch “Knickerbocker storm” of Jan 27-29, 1922, during which the Knickerbocker Theatre roof collapsed, killing 98 people.

The second-biggest snowstorm in Washington was on Feb 12-14, 1899, when 20 inches was recorded, the weather service said.

The forecast doesn’t bode well for the region, where less than one inch of snowfall Wednesday night crippled the nation’s capital and caused traffic chaos. Countless drivers were stuck behind the wheel for up to nine hours in the evening rush two days before the new storm is forecast to dump up to 24 times as much snow. Even President Obama’s motorcade got stuck in the mayhem on the way to the White House.

Bowser apologized for the traffic snarls, tweeting Thursday: “Last night the District failed to deploy the necessary resources in response to the snow — for that I am sorry.”

She pledged the city will be ready for this weekend’s storm.

New York City was under a blizzard watch for Saturday and Sunday. Up to a foot of snow is predicted.

Significant icing is likely for portions of Kentucky and North Carolina. Severe thunderstorms and even a few tornadoes could lash portions of the Deep South and the Gulf Coast into Friday.

Along the Mid-Atlantic and New England coast, a period of rough seas, coastal flooding and beach erosion is likely, according to AccuWeather. The worst conditions will be from Virginia to New Jersey. The weather service in Washington warned there was a chance of “hurricane-force wind gusts” along the coast.

The greatest risk of widespread power outages will be near the Mid-Atlantic coast, where winds will be the strongest and snow the wettest.

IN BRIEF LAWSUIT AGAINST CHICAGO COP IN SHOOTING TOSSED

SERGEI CHIRIKOV, EUROPEAN PRESSPHOTO AGENCY

Dmitry Kovtun, left, and Andrei Lugovoi are accused of carrying out the killing.

Putin ‘probably’ approved assassination of spy, critic British inquiry says Russian leader could be linked to death Doug Stanglin and Kim Hjelmgaard USA TODAY

A formal British inquiry into the poisoning death of Russian spy Alexander Litvinenko has found the killing was “probably” approved personally by Russian President Vladimir Putin.

The report, published Thursday in Britain, said two Russian agents, Andrei Lugovoi and Dmitry Kovtun, slipped radioactive polonium-210 into Litvinenko’s tea at London’s Millennium Hotel in London in 2006.

He died more than three weeks later at a London hospital. In a statement issued posthumously, he blamed Putin for his death.

Litvinenko, a former KGB agent who defected to Britain in 2001, was highly critical of Russian intelligence services and Putin. He was working for Britain’s MI6 at the time of his death.

British judge Robert Owen, ko, summoned to the British Forwho chaired the inquiry, said the eign Office to receive the report, 328-page report concluded the said, “This gross provocation of Russian leader could be linked to the British authorities cannot but Litvinenko’s death because there damage our bilateral ties,” the was “a personal dimension” to Tass news agency reports.

A federal judge on Thursday tossed a civil case brought against one of two Chicago Police Department officers who were involved in the high-profile shooting death of an unarmed black teenager.

U.S. District Judge Robert Gettleman issued a 10-page ruling that removes officer Lou Toth from the wrongful death lawsuit, which also names officer Kevin Fry and the city of Chicago as defendants, for the 2013 shooting death of 17-year-old Cedrick Chatman.

The city last week was ordered to release video footage that showed Chatman being shot by Fry as he ran away from the officers shortly after being involved in a carjacking.

In the video, Toth could be seen in pursuit of the teen, who is running at full speed, when Fry opened fire. Fry said he shot Chatman because he believed he was holding a weapon. What Fry said he thought was a gun was actually a black iPhone box. Police say Toth drew his weapon but did not fire.

Governor wants feds to boot occupiers Gordon Friedman

The (Salem, Ore.) Statesman Journal SALEM Residents of rural Harney County are being “overlooked and underserved” by federal officials who will be billed for local costs associated with the armed standoff at the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge, Gov. Kate Brown said.

“The situation is absolutely intolerable and must be resolved immediately,” Brown said Wednesday at the Capitol.

“The very fabric of this community is being ripped apart.”

Brown estimated county costs related to the standoff at $100,000 per week — more in the first week — and said she was seeking state funds to offset the expenditures. She said the state would then bill federal authorities.

Brown, a Democrat, said she has kept quiet about the standoff at the request of federal authorities who wanted to avoid “escalating the situation.” But she said she has complained to the Justice Department and White House.

“Federal authorities must move quickly to end the occupation and hold all of the wrongdoers accountable,” Brown said. “The spectacle of lawlessness must end.”

The occupiers, led by Arizona businessman Ammon Bundy, want clemency for the imprisoned ranchers, and they aim to jumpstart the slumped Harney County economy by finding a way to transfer federally managed range land to local or private hands.

At community meetings, some residents have expressed support for the occupiers’ motives. But locals are overwhelmingly opposed to the standoff and have repeatedly asked Bundy’s band to leave peacefully.

NEWS MONEY SPORTS VOLATILITY SCARE: LIFE EXPLAINING THE DOW’S WILD RIDE AUTOS 1 TRAVEL

5B

Adam Shell @adamshell USA TODAY

Wondering what the heck happened Wednesday when the Dow went into a death spiral — plunging 565 points — then reversed course in bungee-cord fashion to recoup more than half of its losses and finish down 249 points?

Here are some theories on why the Dow took investors on such a wild ride — a trading session that kicked off a heated debate on Wall Street as to whether the intense selling pressure had reached a crescendo — at least for the short term. (The Dow rebounded again Thursday, gaining 116 points to 15,883.)

First, why such intense selling?

Panic and fear are two reasons.

With headlines blaring “Dow down by 500 points,” investors get nervous, especially after earlier reports touting the worst start to a year for U.S. stocks in history.

And when investors’ fear levels rise, emotions take over and people sell for fear of seeing all their cash in the stock market disappearing overnight.

Another reason selling kicked into overdrive is that selling begets more selling. Big losses suffered anywhere in markets cause financial pain that then requires some distressed investors to sell other stuff to raise cash or prevent further losses. Case in point: There is talk that Middle East sovereign wealth funds, which have been decimated by plunging oil prices, were selling assets — such as very-liquid stocks.

And don’t forget those computer-driven

trading algorithms that generate selling without human intervention when key stock indexes fall below certain key levels.

A big turn higher in biotech stocks was also a catalyst for the reversal, says Mark Arbeter, president of Arbeter Investments.

Arbeter says the S&P 500’s ability to finish above its October 2014 intraday low of 1821, after briefly tumbling below that key level, which occurred during the Ebola virus scare, was a key development.

“Holding the October 2014 low was certainly a prescription for a rally,” Arbeter told USA TODAY.

SHORT COVERING PLAYED A ROLE

With the Dow down more than 500 points in a single day — on top of a prior drop of more than 2,000 points since its May peak — investors that were betting against the market pulled back on those bets for fear of getting hurt if a rebound occurred, as it did. An investor that shorts the market borrows shares and sells them with the hope of buying them back at lower prices. So to avoid losing money if stocks shoot up, they close out their short positions.

Wall Street compensation braces for deeper cuts in ’16 Kaja Whitehouse @kajawhitehouse USA TODAY

Brokerage firm Morgan Stanley, meanwhile, said it cut compensation and benefits by 10% while its workforce grew by 1%. Citi-

group’s compensation costs declined 9% as its total staff shrank by 4%.

The pay cuts come as Wall Street struggles with falling demand for trading and underwriting. They are also a reflection of Wall Street’s push, in the aftermath of the financial crisis, to squeeze out higher profits through aggressive cost-cutting, even as revenue has remained largely flat.

“They are all under pressure to improve their returns on equity,” said David Hilder, a senior analyst with brokerage firm Drexel Hamilton. “And one of the levers that they can all pull is compensation.”

But future cuts are not only going to impact well-heeled traders and investment banks.

They could also hurt Wall Street’s lesser paid back-office and information technology workers in the form of layoffs.

Brokerage firm Morgan Stanley hinted at just such a change Wednesday when its CEO said it plans to relocate employees from “high-cost centers” if they are “doing work that can sensibly be done in lower cost centers.” The relocations were announced as part of the bank’s plan to slash $1 billion in costs over the next two years.

Ford adds start-stop technology to top-selling F-150s Automaker hopes to boost gas mileage in 60% of its lineup Chris Woodyard @ChrisWoodyard USA TODAY

In a huge boost to gas-saving technology, Ford said Thursday it plans to equip all of its F-150 pickups with turbocharged en-

gines with technology that shuts off their engines at stop lights.

The so-called start-stop technology then automatically restarts the engine as soon as the driver presses the gas pedal.

The move is significant because Ford’s F-150 is the nation’s most popular vehicle — car or truck — and the new technology will be applied to about 60% of its lineup.

It marks yet another move by Ford to improve its trucks’ gas

Ford says start-stop technology will be available in its just-unveiled F-150 Raptor.

mileage. The most radical was shifting from steel to aluminum for the truck bodies, a move that saved up to 700 pounds. Plus, Ford is focused on trying to maintain the pickups’ sales momentum. While it was easily tops again last year with 780,354 pickups sold, a 3.5% increase, it’s feeling some heat from General Motors, maker of the Chevrolet Silverado, Autodata says. GM sold 600,544 Silverados, up 13.4%.

Start-stop will be a feature

added to the trucks’ EcoBoost turbocharged engines, V-6s that produce enough power to match or exceed the old V-8s with greater gas savings.

“EcoBoost already powers F-150’s best-in-class towing,” said Doug Scott, Ford truck group marketing manager. “Now, with every EcoBoost-equipped F-150 mildly electrified with standard Auto Start-Stop technology, customers’ fuel efficiency is expected to improve as well.”

AMERICA’S MARKETS What to watch David Craig @davidgcraig USA TODAY

NEW YORK People are used to hearing about bulls and bears when it comes to the stock market. But canaries?

Ever since last week, when the Russell 2000 index fell into bear market territory, or a decline of at least 20% from a recent high, the small-stock universe it tracks has picked up a label: The canary in the coal mine.

That refers to the days when miners would carry caged canaries underground with them because they hoped any poisonous gases in the mine would kill the birds first, thereby providing a warning that it was time to get out fast.

In the case of the Russell 2000, some pundits say the bear market

Facts about America’s investors who use SigFig tracking services:

in small stocks is a sign of similar trouble ahead for large-company stocks, too.

Not necessarily, says Sam Stovall, U.S. equity strategist at S&P Capital IQ. Going back to 1978, Stovall says the large-cap Standard & Poor’s 500 index has only followed the Russell into a bear market 50% of the time.

So there’s an even chance that this pullback will end like the two other times since the financial crisis that the Russell suffered a bear market — 2010 and 2011.

Both times the S&P 500 came close to — but never entered — bear market territory.

At Thursday’s close of 999, the Russell is still firmly in a bear, 22.9% off its record high in June.

The benchmark S&P 500 index isn’t even close to a bear market, at 1869 down just 12.3% from its record close last May.

Stick with the market, even in volatile times

Q: Are stocks bad for my retirement funds?

Matt Krantz

mkrantz@usatoday.com USA TODAY

A: When markets churn and sputter like they are now, some investors might wonder if the pain is worthwhile.

Investors see retirement savings balances shrink and question if stocks are just a bad idea.

Market corrections are painful and uncomfortable. This downturn is no exception. The market is off to one of its worst starts ever, and the Standard & Poor’s 500 is down roughly 8.5% over the past year. That’s a real hit.

A person with $300,000 saved for retirement would have seen $25,500 in their portfolio vanish. But don’t make the mistake of bailing on stocks when the market gets ugly. The stock market is one of your biggest allies in being able to amass enough wealth to have a decent shot at retirement.

Even with the market’s downturn this year, the S&P 500 is up 47% cumulatively over the past 10 years, S&P Capital IQ says. And that doesn’t include dividends.

You’ll be hard pressed to find better returns for your retirement funds.

Retirement money shouldn’t be all in stocks, either, but partly allocated to less risky bonds. The IFA Index Portfolio 60, which is 40% fixed income, has generated an average annual return of 4.9% the past 10 years. But it’s also 23% less risky than the market.

Starbucks hits earnings, but shares slip on disappointing outlook Elizabeth Weise @eweise USA TODAY

Starbucks shares slid late Thursday after its outlook overshadowed an estimate-beating quarter of profits.

The coffee chain empire said revenue rose nearly 12% to $5.37 billion in its fiscal first quarter, generating a profit of $687 million, down 30% from a year ago, the company announced after markets closed Thursday.

Starbucks earnings per share of 46 cents per share topped bro-

MARCOPAKO/FLICKR

Online ordering is one area helping Starbucks differentiate itself.

kerage estimates of 44 to 45 cents a share as compiled by S&P Capital IQ Consensus Estimates. Sales were largely in line with forecasts of $5.39 billion.

For its current quarter, Starbucks told investors it expects to make 38-39 cents a share in adjusted earnings. That’s a little short of what Wall Street expected.

The results, announced after markets closed, sent Starbucks shares down 3.5% in after-hours trading.

The Seattle-based company’s growth was driven in part by a 4% increase in global customer

traffic.

Same-store sales in the Americas increased 9%. Meanwhile, sales in the China and Asia Pacific segment increased 5%.

The company reported that 1 in 6 American adults received a Starbucks Card for the holidays, up from 1 in 7 in the first quarter of fiscal year 2015.

A record $1.9 billion was loaded onto Starbucks cards in the United States and Canada over the holiday season, Starbucks reported.

Starbucks has continued to build out its mobile order and payment app in the U.S., where it

was launched in 2014 and went nationwide in 2015.

The app allows customers to order and pay for drinks ahead of time without having to wait in line.

Starbucks continues to be bullish on Asia and especially China, Starbucks President and COO Kevin Johnson said.

“Asia had a great quarter; it delivered 5% comp store sales.

That’s a combination of our finishing our acquisition of Starbucks Japan combined with 281 net new stores in China and the Asia Pacific. Revenues there were up 32%” year over year, he said.

LUCASFILM

New ‘X-Files’ misses the mark Nostalgia isn’t enough to save this logy, strained reboot If you love The XFiles (ee out of four) and have been waiting for its return, keep waiting.

At a minimum, wait until Monday, when the series airs a second episode that’s a marginal improvement on Sunday’s dispiriting premiere — though to be honest, its hard to imagine an X-Files episode that wouldn’t be. But really, even that outing is a shadow of what this classic series used to be, enough that it casts a shadow on any fond memories of the original.

That’s a considerable problem, because the only way you’ll make it through this six-episode run is if nostalgia — linked with devotion to David Duchovny, Gillian Anderson and the Mulder/Scully partnership returning producer Chris Carter created — floats you along. The slightest leak in that metaphorical boat, and X-Files sinks like a stone.

That’s what it does Sunday with an episode that tries to explain where Agents Mulder (Duchovny) and Scully (Anderson) have been for the past 13 years and — most ambitiously and, as it turns out, foolishly — to reset the show’s mythology. The catalyst for that is Joel McHale’s Tad O’Malley, a Web-TV blowhard who believes he has stumbled upon the most evil trust-no-one conspiracy of all time, which is saying something for a show that practically invented the use of such conspiracies as a TV storytelling engine.

The less we dwell on the details there the better, other than TV PREVIEW ROBERT BIANCO

DIYAH PERA, 20TH CENTURY FOX, VIA AP

David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson reprise their truth-isout-there investigators Mulder and Scully in The X-Files.

THE X-FILES FOX, SUNDAY, 10 ET/7 PT AFTER FOOTBALL

to say to buy it, you have to believe O’Malley could persuade people to reject everything they’ve ever accepted as true in, like, two minutes. But the idea, bad as it is, is not as disastrous as the execution in an episode that is so strained and disjointed, it almost plays like a parody.

Things get better in Monday’s episode, which dumps the mythology for stand-alone horror, and with next week’s comic outing as the series continues its tradition of mixing in the three forms. But “better” is not “good” — and nothing shakes the depressing sense that time has passed the series and the characters by.

Even the performances seem off. Perhaps Duchovny and Anderson were going for laconic, but

what they’ve hit is disengaged.

They’re both terrific actors; they both seem to have other options.

And yet watching them here, you just may come away thinking that their hearts, or at least all of their talents, aren’t in it.

As the show’s oft-repeated catchphrase goes, the truth is out there — and the truth may be that The X-Files no longer has any new tricks to show us. It may seem unfair to criticize X-Files for being overly familiar: the show, after all, popularized many of the tropes so frequently copied today, from those conspiracies to the mix of stand-alone episodes and continuing stories. But that’s the way the world works: What is new becomes old, and X-Files just seems old — proof that someday, we need to learn to leave well enough alone.

Don’t hold your breath waiting for that day to come.

2015 stats show strength of Lawrence market LINDA A. DITCH Hometown Lawrence

The Lawrence Board of Realtors’ recently released sales figures for December put the finishing touches on a strong year for the Lawrence housing market.

“2015 has been terrific,” said Carl Cline of Keller Williams Realty, president of the Lawrence Board of Realtors. “The number of homes sold in Lawrence increased by 11 percent over 2014. New construction home sales were up 6 percent, too.

More good news for sellers, as home sales prices were up slightly, and homes sold about 20-percent faster in 2015 than in the prior year.”

In December, 70 existing homes were sold, which is

a slight increase from the same month in 2014. The average sale price of these homes was $205,125. This is a 9.5-percent increase from the previous year. New construction sales were down slightly (five sales in December 2015 compared to eight in December 2014), with an average price drop of 5.7 percent from the same period the year before.

The inventory of homes for sale in Lawrence remains low. There were 240 units for sale at the end of December, a 3.2 months’ supply of homes on the market at the current rate of sales, which indicates a strong sellers market, the board reported.

This is a trend Cline thinks will continue.

“Presently, both resale and new construction home inventories are constricted in our market,” Cline said.

“I don't see this trend changing until supply catches up and overtakes demand. That could take some time as homes priced right and in great condition are being absorbed by the market rather quickly.

“Typically there will be an influx of homes hit the market in the spring. This will offer some relief on supply, but I don't believe enough to equalize or shift the market to a buyer’s market. I believe a seller’s market shall prevail for the majority of 2016.”

But Cline added that the environment remains healthy for buyers given that mortgage rates remain below 4 percent.

Lawrence home sales increased 11 percent from 2014 to 2015.

“Qualified buyers are out there and willing to make purchases,” Cline said. “Even though the Fed raised interest rates it did not have a significant impact on mortgage rates, In fact, mortgage rates today are more favorable than they were 30 days ago. As a result, consumers

are able to afford more home for their same payment. This is validated by the increases in average sales prices.”

Kansas players vow changes

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Kansas University’s basketball players have done some soul-searching in the wake of Tuesday’s 19-point road loss to an Oklahoma State team that entered with a 1-4 league record.

The squad’s upperclassmen led a players-only meeting Wednesday in the players’ locker room in Allen Fieldhouse.

“We talked a lot about stuff, how we should change our attitudes and stuff,” KU freshman forward Carlton Bragg said Thursday. “They got really deep,” Bragg said of unnamed veteran players.

“They said we are not playing like ourselves.

We’re just wrong. We need to tighten things up. The leaders on our team said, ‘We’ve got to bring it now.’

They said, ‘We’re in conference play. Our defense has got to get better and we have to be better leaders.’’’

After Thursday’s practice, Bragg said: “We brought a lot of energy, defensively and offensively, and we’re playing as a team now. This is Day One. We’ve got to move forward getting better and better.”

KU junior Brannen Greene (knee bruise) practiced on Thursday and though coach Bill Self said he wasn’t 100 percent yet, he should be ready by Saturday’s 1 p.m. home game against (12-6, 4-2) Texas.

KU will enter 15-3, 4-2.

Asked if freshman forward Cheick Diallo would make his second straight start, Self said: “Probably.

We’ll see how practice goes.

He did OK (vs. Oklahoma State). I don’t think it was a marquee-type performance but I don’t think you could say that about anybody on our team.” l

On Mason: KU junior Frank Mason III said after Tuesday’s loss his leg was sore but aside from that he was fine physically.

“Since the OU game (109106 3OT victory on Jan. 4) I don’t feel like he’s played with near the energy that he did in that particular game,” Self said. “He totally gave himself up for us that particular night (playing 53 minutes). Since then, it almost seems like he’s been worn out a little bit from that. It could be a coincidence. He’s got to get it back, but you can’t put it on Frank. I think the whole team looks that way. I think we look pretty lethargic right now. Well, I think we did look lethargic.”

KANSAS FOOTBALL

It’s an honor

Decision changed Hadl, Kansas

By Tom Keegan

tkeegan@ljworld.com

Big, bad Dick Butkus, savage middle linebacker of the Chicago Bears, and countless other mean men slammed him hard to the turf, but John Hadl never missed a start because of injury during a spectacular 16-year AFL/NFL career.

Orneriness, stubbornness, etc., cost him a start here and there, but never injury.

So when a hard fall in the garage of his Lawrence home last May cost him a hospital stay of more than a week in duration, that hints at the extent of the gravity of the fall.

“I don’t remember any of it,” Hadl said Thursday from his desk in the Williams Fund offices. “I got a big concussion, hit my brain hard.”

Hadl was under strict orders to summon a nurse whenever he needed to get out of his hospital bed or chair. When he attempted to get up, a recorded device scolded him to sit back down! Hadl fumbled with the device, trying to disconnect it, and when his visitor that particular day ratted him out to a nurse, he shot a glare that would have scared Butkus in his prime.

“Don’t remember any of that,” Hadl said with a smile. “(Wife) Diana was there with me every day. I do know that.”

Hadl, who created so many memories that football fans of Kansas University, the San Diego Chargers and Los Angeles Rams never will forget, will be honored by the athletic department tonight at a dinner at the Oread Hotel and tomorrow in Allen Fieldhouse during halftime

of the Kansas-Texas basketball game.

One of his most cherished memories is of the day he switched college of choice from Oklahoma to Kansas.

Hadl doesn’t care to talk much about his achievements, but since that day is more a story about his father, Jess Hadl, and his college coach, Jack Mitchell, he never minds telling it one more time.

First, a word on Jess. It’s with great pride that Hadl, 75, discusses his late father.

“He was a mechanic all his life,” Hadl said. “He started in eighth grade. They took

him out of school because of hard times and started him working. Worked until the day he died, two jobs most of the time.”

Jess’ son, No. 21, star running back and defensive back for Lawrence High, was at home when he saw a man on a horse with another horse trailing coming toward the Hadl house.

“I can still see him coming around the corner. ‘Is that coach Mitchell?’ It sure as hell was,” Hadl relived the moment. “He was holding two drinks, wasn’t even holding the strings, just guid-

ing the horse with his knees.

And the other horse was just following him right to our front door. ‘Jess here?’ ‘Yeah, I think he is.’ He and my dad got along great. They both liked horses and bourbon.”

As the two men set off for the bourbon-enriched horse ride, Hadl was bound for Oklahoma. When the men returned, he was committed to Kansas. Hadl has been grateful for that day every day since. It takes a tough young athlete to back out of a commitment to a school and Please see HADL, page 3C

Bledsoe chooses Sooners over Jayhawks

l

Team is trying: Self was not fond of one criticism of his team, which has dropped two of its last three games.

“Somebody text me, ‘Hey, your guys act like they don’t care.’ That’s the biggest crock of bull ever. They care a lot,” Self said. “But I think sometimes stress and things like that probably keep you from probably being the way that you want to be all the time.” l

Hoverboard chatter: Some KU players such as Bragg and Devonté Graham have been seen riding hoverboards in and outside of the fieldhouse.

“Now while there’s snow and stuff, coach said to stay Richard Gwin/Journal-World Photo off ‘em,” Bragg said. “It takes 10 minutes to master (riding LAWRENCE HIGH DEFENSIVE END AMANI BLEDSOE MAKES HIS SIGNATURE SALUTE (THE MOOSE) celebrating a sack in a 63-7 victory over Olathe South Friday, Oct. 9, 2015, at LHS.

By Bobby Nightengale bnightengale@ljworld.com

After listing Kansas among his two finalists, Lawrence High football standout Amani Bledsoe has decided to play college football at the University of Oklahoma.

Bledsoe, a four-star recruit, announced his commitment on Thursday afternoon. The 6-foot-5, 272-pound defensive end is the top recruit in Kansas and ranked No. 122 in the nation in the Class of 2016

by Rivals.com.

The Sooners were long considered one of the frontrunners for Bledsoe. He took an official visit to Norman on Oct. 23-24, traveling to Oklahoma with his mother, brother and grandfather.

Leonard will start in his first All-Star Game and Lowry will start on his home court in Toronto after both made up ground in the final days of voting.

Bryant had 1.9 million votes and was selected an All-Star on Thursday for the 18th time. MVP Stephen Curry of Golden State was next with 1.6 million. They will be joined in the Western Conference lineup by Oklahoma City’s Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook, and San Antonio’s Leonard.

Cleveland’s LeBron James and Indiana’s Paul George will start in the East frontcourt on Feb. 14 with New York’s Carmelo Anthony.

Hadl CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1C

legendary coach (Bud Wilkinson). Since toughness is the word that best defines Hadl, he never feared the moment of relating his change, never rued the decision to let down Oklahoma.

Recruit to recruiter More than a half-century later, Hadl’s university still is thanking him. And why not?

In addition to helping to fund the athletic department as a closer on big donations for the Williams Fund, Hadl’s company brightens the days of co-workers.

His life in football enabled him to cross paths with big names in sports and Hollywood.

Still, Hadl kept returning home. He has served his university as an athlete, a an assistant coach, an administrator. The best recruit in which Hadl had a hand in landing was to the benefit of the basketball program.

“John was a big reason why I came to Kansas when the job opened,” basketball coach Bill Self said Thursday. “He basically called and said, ‘Now, listen here, this is what we’re going to do and this is what you’re going to do.’ He has had more experiences than just about any man I know, as far as hanging out with (Joe) Namath or (Lance) Alworth or whoever.

“But more importantly than all that, John Hadl is a great guy. He’s a guy’s guy. He cares about people. He’s so impressed by other people’s successes, but he never talks about himself when he’s done more than all of us combined in his lifetime.”

Sure enough, a question to Hadl about a famous run for Lawrence High against Wyandotte in a matchup of the state’s two top-ranked teams at packed Haskell Stadium elicited a self-depricating remark and a tribute to the greatness of one teammate’s play and another’s career.

“Jim Reagan knocked the heck out of their AllAmerican, I took off running and there wasn’t

anybody around me,” Hadl said. “I was worried about my speed and they about caught me.”

That memory led him to raving about the late Doyle Schick, a teammate at LHS and KU. “Helluva player,” Hadl said. “His senior year in high school, he was an All-American in football, all-state in basketball, All-American in track and had the best javelin throw in the nation. He was a helluvan athlete.

Best blocker, technique, he’d play fullback, block for me and (Curtis) McClinton. He’d get ’em on the ground every time.”

Special KU records An All-American at both halfback and quarterback for Kansas, Hadl played halfback and defensive back as a sophomore, quarterback as a junior and senior. The two Kansas records he holds came on special teams.

He had a 94-yard punt vs.

Oklahoma and a 98-yard punt return against TCU. “Like hitting a 2-iron, you hit a really good 2-iron you don’t know how you did it,” Hadl said of the record punt. “It just took off. I came off the field and Jack Mitchell said, ‘John, that was a damn national record.’

He was so fired up.”

Late to life as a passer, Hadl quickly made up for lost time. When he retired in 1977, the only quarterbacks who ranked ahead of him on the all-time NFL passing-yardage list — NFL records include AFL statistics — were Fran Tarkenton and Johnny Unitas. Yet, Hadl’s 33,503 passing yards never earned him enshrinement in the Pro Football Hall of Fame in Canton, Ohio.

He was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame in 1994.

Until giving up golf a couple of summers ago because he became too stiff to turn properly, Hadl was prompted by golf buddies every Wednesday to tell tales of nights on the town with Hollywood friends such as famous crooner Dean Martin. He lunched with legendary actor John Wayne and remains good friends with former New York Jets quarterback Broadway Joe Namath.

One Hadl-Namath conversation came about purely by accident.

“We were down for the Orange Bowl and I was in (former Kansas coach Mark) Mangino’s suite,” Hadl said. “The phone rings and I answer it: ‘Who is this?’ ‘Joe Namath.’ ‘Joe, you (so and so), this is Hadl!’ So he went crazy. And he told me he wanted to meet Mangino because they were both from that same area of Pennsylvania. I said, ‘Come on down. I know he’d like to meet you.’ I told coach and he said, ‘Hell, yes. Get him down here.’ Joe drove 50, 60 miles the next day.

“I was sitting in the hotel lobby waiting for him.

He walked through that lobby and of course everybody said, ‘There’s Joe Namath!’ I took him up to the room and they talked about Pennsylvania for about an hour. Joe’s as regular as you can get. He doesn’t take himself seriously at all, just a really good guy.”

That’s how others routinely describe Hadl, a once-great quarterback who coached Hall of Fame passers. As head coach of the Los Angeles Express of the USFL, Hadl had Steve Young at quarterback. As quarterbacks coach of the Denver Broncos, Hadl tutored John Elway.

Hadl said he thinks he could have coached current Denver Broncos coach Gary Kubiak, if not for bad luck in the weather department.

Hadl tried to recruit Kubiak, from Pius X High in Houston, and convinced him to come to Lawrence for a campus visit.

“I almost had him,” Hadl said. “It snowed about 50 feet, it seemed like. The wind was blowing, a big blizzard. We went to his hotel-room door and the snow was so deep he couldn’t open the door to get in the room.”

Kubiak, father of current KU wide receivers coach Klint Kubiak, went to Texas A&M. It wasn’t meant to be, just as it wasn’t meant to be for Hadl to go to Oklahoma. He had the courage to change his mind and he and the Kansas athletic department have been better off for it ever since.

Roberts ignites LHS

By Bobby Nightengale bnightengale@ljworld.com

Topeka — Sitting on the bench for several minutes in the third quarter because of foul trouble Thursday, Lawrence High senior point guard Justin Roberts knew he needed to make an impact once he was back on the court.

Trailing by three points with under five minutes left, Roberts scored nine straight points and led his boys basketball team to a 65-57 victory over Wichita Northwest in the first round of the Topeka Invitational Tournament at Topeka West.

On three straight possessions, Roberts had the ball at the top of the arc, waited for junior forward Kobe Buffalomeat to set a ball screen, and found a way to score. He dribbled to his right and knocked down a three. He went to his left to hit another three. Then he drove past his defender for a layup and a 55-49 advantage with 3:13 remaining.

“We ran a couple of ball screens for (Roberts) and let him play with some freedom,” LHS coach Mike Lewis said. “He did a nice job of being the aggressor and getting to the rim on a couple (of plays). There’s no hiding it, he’s our go-to guy. He did what Justin has done now for a long time.”

The Grizzlies (4-6) twice made it a one-possession contest with under two minutes left, but Roberts and senior guard Anthony Harvey made all of their free throws. Senior forward Fred Brou added a dunk in the final 15 seconds and Price Morgan scored on a putback.

Roberts scored 15 of his game-high 23 points in the final period.

LAWRENCE HIGH GUARD ANTHONY HARVEY TURNS TO CELEBRATE after hitting a three against Wichita Northwest during the second half of the Topeka Invitational at Topeka West High School. Lawrence won 65-57.

Lawrence’s big plays in the fourth quarter helped disguise some of the ugliness from the first half.

Lewis said his team had a “foggy start” in the first quarter. Roberts called it a “trance.”

The Lions (10-1, ranked No. 3 in Class 6A) shot 2-of-12 from the floor with four turnovers in the first quarter. They had problems adjusting to the early afternoon start with little energy on the court.

“Sometimes that 3:15 game can be that way,” Lewis said. “You come over and you are a little out of sync. I can come up with all kinds of excuses, but we just weren’t real good today.”

The Grizzlies only shot 39 percent from the field, but they grabbed 16 offensive rebounds, which turned into 20 secondchance points.

“A lot of the balls were coming off the rims weird and stuff like that,” Brou said. “We probably

could’ve done a better job of getting bodies on people, but there are days when you won’t have 50/50 balls go your way.”

The Lions were without junior starter Jackson Mallory, who was sick. Harvey scored seven points and grabbed seven rebounds.

Morgan had nine points and 15 rebounds and Brou added 18 points and seven rebounds.

The Lions will face Topeka High (5-5) at 6:45 p.m. today in the semifinals.

Wichita Northwest (57) Lorenzo Ruffin 2-6 0-3 4, Jalen Smith 7-16 1-2 16, Jamir Cupps 0-5 1-2 1, Michael Duncan 5-13 0-0 11, Dawson Kohlman 1-2 0-0 2, Luke Carter 7-17 1-2 18, Demarquez Phillips 2-3 0-0 5, Jordan Trotter 0-0 0-0 0. Totals 24-62 3-9 57.

SPARE ME

Lawrence High senior diver Izaiah Bowie admitted he was a little nervous before his first dive at the LHS Invitational on Thursday.

It was the Lions’ first and only home meet, and it was Senior Day. With his teammates lined up around the walls of the pool, Bowie thrived under the pressure and took first place in the one-meter dive.

Bowie’s win was one of the many standout performances for the Lions, where they won the team title in the six-team meet by 92 points over runnerup McPherson.

“There was a lot of pressure but my dives were probably the best they’ve been in a while,” Bowie said. “It was great.

I did really well. There wasn’t a whole lot of competition out here, but we all did great.”

The Lions won eight of the 12 events, including in the 200 medley relay and 400 freestyle relay. Sophomores Stephen Johnson,

But for the seniors, it was a chance to enjoy themselves at their home pool.

“It was pretty cool,” said senior Chase Odgers, who was second in the 200 individual medley and third in the 100 butterfly. “Last time to swim in this pool in like a competition setting, so it’s kind of bittersweet. We all did pretty well.”

LHS junior Patrick Oblon was third and senior Hunter Boehle was fifth in the 50 freestyle, junior Raymond Faith was fifth in the 100 butterfly and freshman Anton Martinez de Velasco was second in the one-meter dive.

“The guys really wanted it,” LHS coach Kent McDonald said. “They had more fun. The pool is a little bit of a slow pool.

COLLEGE BASKETBALL ROUNDUP

UK back on track, topples Arkansas The Associated Press

No. 23 Kentucky 80, Arkansas 66 Fayetteville, Ark. — Tyler Ulis scored 24 points to lead four Kentucky players in double figures as the Wildcats bounced back from a loss at Auburn with a victory at Arkansas on Thursday night.

The win is the first for John Calipari as coach of the Wildcats in Bud Walton Arena, where he improved to 2-4 all-time — including a win with Memphis in 2003.

Jamal Murray added 19 points, Derek Willis 12 and Skai Labissiere 11 for Kentucky (14-4, 4-2 Southeastern Conference), which avoided losing two straight games for the first time since 2014.

Dusty Hannahs led the Razorbacks (9-9, 3-3) with 20 points, while Anthlon Bell had 16 and Moses Kingsley 13.

Kentucky allowed a season-worst 12 threepointers in its loss at Auburn last week, but the Wildcats had no such problems shutting down the outside attack of the SEC’s top shooting team on Thursday night.

With Kentucky extending its perimeter defense to shut down Arkansas’ SEC-leading three-point tandem of Hannahs and Bell, the Wildcats managed to hold Arkansas to a season-worst 2-of-12 shooting from behind the arc — including 2 of 9 by Hannahs and Bell.

Offensively, Ulis scored 17 of his 24 points in the second half — finishing 14 of 15 at the free throw line and 2 of 3 on three-pointers — as

Kentucky led for all but the game’s opening free throw.

Arkansas entered the game second in the country in three-point field goal percentage (47.2), but it struggled mightily to find success from the outside in the first half — missing all three of its three-point attempts as the Wildcats built a 36-24 halftime lead.

Jarrod Uthoff and Anthony Clemmons added 20 points apiece as the Hawkeyes (15-3, 6-0) won their eighth straight game and their 12th in a row in the Big Ten Conference, dating to last season.

Iowa used a zone defense late in the first half in a 16-7 run that gave it a 45-37 lead, and it opened the game up in the second half with its long-range shooting.

Mike Williams had 17 points to lead Rutgers (6-
