Students start petition to ban Confederate flag

A Kansas state of mind

By Rochelle Valverde Twitter: @RochelleVerde

Before school administration decided to disallow it, the full-sized Confederate flag had been flying from a makeshift flagpole on a student’s truck in the Free State High School parking lot for more than a week.

The flag may be gone, but it isn’t banned, and some students would like to change that.

Unlike policies banning hats or T-shirts depicting alcohol or drugs on school grounds, there is no school or district policy banning the Confederate flag. Several stu-

Obama nominates Lawrence attorney to federal bench Associated Press

President Barack Obama’s nomination of a Lawrence attorney to serve on the federal bench got a warm reception in Kansas, including the crucial support of his home state senator.

The president announced his choice of Terrence J. Campbell for the U.S. District Court in Kansas on Thursday.

He would succeed U.S. District Judge Kathryn Vratil, who in 2014 took senior status, a form of

referring to the Kansas Secure and Fair Elections, or SAFE Act, passed in 2011, that now requires all voters to show a valid photo ID at the polls in order to vote and for new voters to show proof of U.S. citizenship in order to register.

“And I think statistically, it certainly has not had any negative impact on participation, and one could argue it has had a slight positive impact on participation,” he said.

But Ward, who has held elected office at the state and local level for most of the last 25 years, said he believes the laws have demonstrably prevented qualified citizens from voting.

“In my last election, I registered 300 new voters,” Ward said. “I advanceballoted about 500 voters.

It made the difference in my primary. It made the difference in my general election. It is harder to do that today than it has ever been, and I know that only because that’s what I do when I get elected.”

He also pointed to the number of voter registrations that have been blocked and held “in suspense” because the voters failed to provide the required proof of U.S. citizenship. That number stood at more than 30,000 in September, the last full count taken before Kobach implemented new regulations requiring those applications to be canceled if they’ve been held more than 90 days.

“When you have between 30,000 and 40,000 people being denied their right to vote, you cannot say with a straight face it’s not having an impact on elections and on participation,” Ward said.

Michael Smith, a political science professor at Emporia State University who has analyzed the list of suspense voters, testified that those voters tend to be clustered in lower-income neighborhoods. He also said the list included a disproportionate number of young voters.

Kobach pointed to a SurveyUSA poll conducted in 2010, before the laws were enacted, showing 85 percent of those surveyed supported requiring people to show a photo ID in order to vote, and 82 percent supported a proof of citizenship requirement to register.

But Ward challenged whether that poll asked the right questions.

“When you ask a question abut photo IDs on a survey, ‘Do you think it’s OK to (require) photo IDs?’ most people are going to say yes,” Ward said.

“When you present to them the fact that there are between 12 and 18 percent of the Kansas population that don’t have a driver’s license, that slows them down a little bit,” he said.

“These people don’t have checking accounts. They don’t have credit cards.

They don’t participate in our economy at that level yet. But they are still valid citizens. Their voice matters.”

— Rep. Jim Ward, D-Wichita Kobach also pointed to the fact that there are now more than 1.7 million registered voters in Kansas, the most the state has ever had. And he said there is little evidence to suggest that voter participation in 2014 — the first election in which both the photo ID and proof of citizenship laws were in effect — was substantially different from earlier, similar elections.

But he also said it’s difficult to pinpoint why voter turnout in any given election will be higher or lower than other elections.

“It’s really, really hard to isolate why a person decides to vote in any given election cycle,” he said. “You have so many factors. But anyone who studies elections will tell you, the No. 1 factor driving people to the polls is a good, competitive race where people care about the candidates.”

Even by that standard, though, participation in the 2014 election, a nonpresidential year in which statewide offices and a U.S. Senate seat were on the ballot — was down from the last similar election in 2002.

According to official election results and census figures for Kansas, 887,023 people cast ballots in 2014. That was 50.8 percent of all registered voters, and 40.6 percent of the total voting-age population. That election included highly competitive races for both governor and U.S. senator.

Twelve years earlier, 851,966 Kansans voted in the general election. That was 52.7 percent of all registered voters and 44.6 percent of the voting-age population. That year saw an open race for governor, but a noncompetitive Senate race in which Republican Pat Roberts faced no major party opposition.

Ward argued that the photo ID and citizenship laws effectively make people prove they are innocent of a crime before they can exercise their right to vote.

“I come to the presumption that I should be able to participate, and if the government’s going to stop me, they have to have a good reason, that the majority should not be able to prevent me from participating in an election,” he said.

Elizabeth Kronk Warner, a Kansas University law professor who chairs the advisory commission, said the panel will use all of the testimony it received Thursday and make a report about its findings to the Civil Rights Commission later this year.

ministration has taken the initiative to go ahead and say that they’re not OK with (the flag), it’s definitely still important to try to make it an official policy so that people do know about it and it’s something that is part of all rules,” said Abena Peasah, a senior at Free State and one of the students who drafted the petition.

Peasah and three other students drafted the petition calling for a district policy to ban the flag that has gathered more than 200 signatures since it began circulating late last week.

More than a quarter of the 1,700 students who attend Free State are nonwhite, and about 6 percent of the students are black, according to statistics from the Kansas State Department of Education. Districtwide, more than 30 percent of students are nonwhite.

Without a specific ban of the flag, any future decisions regarding its display would be made on a case-by-case basis.

District officials said this week’s decision to disallow the student from flying the flag was based on the disruption of the learning environment.

Lawrence schools Superintendent Rick Doll said that decision was made in conjunction with the school’s principal, the president of the school

ovirus, KDHE said.

KDHE is investigating the source of the illness, which is highly contagious and spreads through food, water or person-to-person contact. It is commonly associated with large gatherings of people, and symptoms include vomiting, diarrhea, fever and body aches.

The health department said the theater has been fully cooperating with the investigation.

Rob McGraw, vice president of sales and marketing for New Theatre Restaurant, told The

Kansas City Star that three employees have been confirmed for norovirus and that those employees served a man who attended the Jan. 17 matinee performance. That man also has been confirmed to have norovirus. No other employees have fallen ill since the performances, McGraw said.

The department asked that people who have attended performances from Jan. 15 until now take part in a confidential online KDHE survey even if they didn’t become ill.

board, the district’s legal department and Doll.

“Students don’t give up their constitutional rights when they enter the school house door, that’s kind of basic school law,” Doll said. “But balance that with a disruption to the learning environment, and in this case, we decided that the disruption outweighed or trumped the right to free expression.”

The students opposed to the flag’s display don’t think that decision should be made case-bycase. The petition cites six court cases involving school districts that have ruled in favor of a school environment free of disruption or upheld a school’s decision to ban the flag. The petition also states that allowing the flag to be flown violates Free State’s own discrimination and harassment policy.

“Having to walk past an unequivocal symbol of racism and discrimination on our way into school is hardly freedom from discrimination,” the petition states.

That school policy states that the Lawrence school district is committed to providing a positive and productive learning and working environment, free from discrimination and harassment. The petition claims that allowing the flag fails to maintain a safe and positive atmosphere: “A symbol of slavery and white supremacy cannot lead to a positive environment for its students. This flag creates a hostile environment

that is fragmenting our school. It is impossible not to see this blatant display of racism as a threat to students’ safety. After all, we are speaking of the very flag flown in a war on the side committed to the subjugation and eternal slavery of African American people.”

The school’s discrimination and harassment policy defines discrimination as follows: “Discrimination is conduct which affords a student different treatment, solely on the basis of race, color, national origin, religion, disability, sex, sexual orientation or gender identity in a manner which interferes with or limits the ability of the student to participate in or benefit from the services, activities or programs of the school.”

The petition also notes other school policies, such as banning hate messages on clothing, gang symbols and the wearing of hats in school, and that those practices are inconsistent with allowing the Confederate flag on campus.

“We fail to see how the school can ban wearing hats within school yet ignore the symbol of slavery,” the petition states.

Peasah said the petition is currently circulating at both Free State and Lawrence high schools, and that she is working to add the proposal to the Lawrence school board’s agenda. The board’s next meeting is Feb. 8.

perience handling a mix of cases in his law practice which he said when combined with “his intelligence and hard work ethic” would make him someone who would be able to hit the deck running on day one and be an excellent judge.

“I don’t see it as being controversial at all,” Lungstrum said of the nomination. “The only question is whether the schedule that is in place in the Senate will allow for him to make it through. I feel quite certain, based on anything I

know about Terry, that there is nothing likely to come up that would cause somebody pause.”

U.S. SEN. JERRY MORAN (R-KAN.), LEFT, IS WELCOMED AT HASKELL INDIAN NATIONS UNIVERSITY by Stephen Prue, Office of the President Executive Assistant, right, during a visit on the Lawrence campus Friday. Moran also made a stop earlier in the day for a town hall meeting in Eudora.

Sen. Moran: Haskell needs autonomy On campus visit, lawmaker promises university his support

By Mackenzie Clark Twitter: @mclark_ljw

U.S. Sen. Jerry Moran spent part of Kansas Day in Douglas County on Friday, with a town hall in Eudora as well as a stop at Haskell Indian Nations University.

The visit to Haskell was partially for a meeting with Stephen Prue, executive assistant to University President Venida Chenault, in preparation for Haskell’s visit to Washington, D.C., next month.

Prue said a group of students

and faculty will visit the nation’s capital for the American Indian Higher Education Consortium 2016 Winter Meeting from Feb. 8-11.

Another reason for the visit, Moran said, is to reconnect on the issue of the university’s governance.

Chenault told the JournalWorld in October that the university is looking at increasing autonomy and authority as a university that is federally funded. The university’s Board of Regents — which is technically an advisory board rather than a

governing body for the school, Chenault said previously — formally resolved to move toward more autonomy from the federal government, including studying the possibility of becoming federally chartered instead of federally operated.

Moran said Friday that he has spoken with graduates and “those who are interested in the well-being of Haskell.”

Higher education not just a numbers game

By Dolph C. Simons Jr.

A news report earlier this week cited a Georgetown University study that suggested Kansas, by one means or another, needs to have approximately 60 percent of its workforce-age population holding post-secondary degrees or training credentials by 2020 if the state hopes to keep up with its workforce demands.

As of 2012, the state’s higher education rate was 52 percent.

In response to this situation, Kansas Board of Regents President and CEO Blake Flanders reportedly told the regents, “We know we’re going to have to attract students back that have had some college and no degree. We’re not going to be able to do it just on high school students and graduates alone.”

To meet the 60 percent goal by 2020, Kansans reportedly needs to complete about 53,000

credentials per year. Kansas is said to have hit its targets the past two years but fell about 2,000 short of the 42,251 degrees and credentials it needed in 2015 to stay on course.

According to those closely associated with the 2020 project, more effective efforts will be needed to attract nontraditional students and students of color. There also is the challenge of how to retain students.

Regents have attempted to devise a method to raise the rate of students who return to their schools after the first year by 10 percent, but, since 2011, this figure is only 3 percent.

Flanders said, “If we want to reach 10 percentage points, we’re going to have to have more aggressive improvement.”

Maybe the 60 percent target is realistic and critical, and it’s possible an even higher percentage will be needed in the

coming years to attract highgrade industry and business to the state.

What is known is that Kansas University and other state institutions are trying to attract more students of all kinds. KU has entered into a contract with a firm to attract talented undergraduate students from Europe and has initiated programs to attract a more diverse enrollment.

COMMENTARY Likewise, KU has made a major effort to attract truly outstanding researchers and teachers with national and international reputations who should attract outstanding students and raise the academic reputation of the university.

It is important to point out that the 2020 goal of 60 per-

cent covers the post-secondary education waterfront, including degree and certificate programs at both public and private technical schools, community colleges and four-year universities.

This writer’s concern is that the pressure on state universities, particularly a flagship research institution such as KU, to increase the number of diplomas they award should not cause the schools to turn into diploma factories.

Academic requirements should not be lowered or watered down to produce a greater number of graduates. If KU is to excel and elevate its academic excellence and raise its national reputation, that will be achieved through a rigorous and challenging academic environment rather than by trying to win a contest for its number of graduates.

Some way needs to be figured out to encourage more

young men and women to seek a post-high school certificate or degree, primarily for their own benefit but also for the betterment and future of the state. At the same time, there should be no effort to dumb down the academic requirements at a university or lessen the training and requirements at vocational and technical schools.

It stands to reason that achieving the goal of 60 percent of the post-secondary work force having a degree or certificate will require a team effort that starts at primary school and goes through postsecondary schools with the support of the public, university and trade school leaders, the governor and state legislators.

It’s a worthy goal, but excellence and standards should not be compromised to achieve the 60 percent goal. Diplomas and certificates must retain their validity and relevance.

Slated for 6:30 p.m. at Sarah’s Upstairs, 927 1/2 Massachusetts St., the event will feature several high-profile members of the Lawrence dining scene, including Ken Baker and Brian Strecker of the now-closed Pachamamas, Rick Martin of Limestone Pizza Kitchen and Bar, Zach

Thompson of 715, and Vaughn Good and Jamie Everett of Hank Charcuterie.

“We took our dish and tried to make it as close to what we thought Jay would do,” says Good, chef-owner of Hank Charcuterie. “How he would plate it, how he would cook it.”

The resulting menu includes such delicacies as beer-brined chicken confit and kimchi-wrapped beef neck dumplings.

Despite his late friend’s introverted nature, Good suspects Tovar-Ballagh wouldn’t have minded the big, fancy dinner in his name — “I think he’d like it,” Good says. After his death last year, the Tovar-Ballagh fam-

ily asked that, in lieu of flowers, donations be made to Just Food.

“Jay was an insanely creative person,” Good says. “He had a ton of thoughts and ideas that he just didn’t get to do yet, and I think that was the best way that we could remember Jay or pay tribute to him — to let some of these things come to life that he didn’t get to do.”

BRIEFLY Plea hearing delayed in stabbing case A plea hearing for a Shawnee man accused of stabbing his wife was pushed on Friday to February because of a language barrier.

Navinkumar Patel was arrested in June 2015 and is accused of stabbing his wife at Lawrence’s Patel Super 8 motel, 515 McDonald Drive, which he owns. He was charged with attempted first-degree murder.

Patel’s wife was transported to Lawrence Memorial Hospital with stab wounds to the abdomen, according to an affidavit in the case. She was later released.

In previous court appearances, Patel, a native of India, needed an interpreter. A translator was not available Friday, and Patel’s hearing was rescheduled for 4 p.m. Feb. 12, said Douglas County District Judge Robert Fairchild.

Officials at the nonprofit Lawrence Creates Makerspace are expanding the organization’s East Lawrence facility at 512 E. Ninth St. Plans call for adding 13 new office/ studio spaces that entrepreneurs or artists can rent by the month.

The nonprofit plans to spend more than $40,000 to add about 2,000 square feet of loft space to the building, plus to renovate another 1,000 square feet of space that isn’t being heavily used.

Police break up fight outside Haskell Fuzzy’s Taco Shop; 1 arrested

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 3A

ou know, I’ve been in a fracas or two in my day, but whenever possible I try to avoid taking part in any shenanigans directly across the street from a police facility. Call me old-fashioned, but I try to be a man of principle.

One man was arrested early Friday morning and another was given notice to appear in court after a fight outside Fuzzy’s Taco Shop, 1115 Massachusetts St., Lawrence Police officials said.

At 1:44 a.m. officers responded to a report of two men fighting outside the restaurant, said Lawrence Police Sgt. Trent McKinley.

In all, seven officers responded to the scene.

Even after police arrived the two men continued fighting,

with the idea of a makerspace, it is a facility that houses specialized equipment often used by inventors and other creative types. The Lawrence space has everything from a woodworking shop to a 3-D printer to a new laser cutter that is being installed this March.

But the current configuration of the makerspace is largely open and shared space. Sarah Wallace, chair of the organization’s board, said the group has received a lot of requests for office space that is private and could be locked up at the end of the workday.

“The way we work now is that everybody is

McKinley said. An officer then sprayed both men with pepper spray, effectively stopping the situation, McKinley said.

Both men were offered treatment for their injuries and their exposure to pepper spray, McKinley said.

One man refused treatment at the scene, but

kind of on top of everybody else,” Wallace said.

“That arrangement is great for some people, but it can be frustrating if you have a lot of equipment to disassemble.”

Wallace said the expansion also was needed to give Lawrence Creates a financial boost.

The organization only charges $20 a month for people to have access to the makerspace, which is open 24 hours a day.

That system has made it tough for the group to meet its monthly overhead costs.

The new office space will be rented at a higher rate — likely between $150 to $300 a month, depending on the size of

John Henry Liebau, 24, was treated at the scene by paramedics and arrested on suspicion of battery. He was booked into the Douglas County Jail in lieu of $100 bond.

McKinley could not say what the two men were fighting about, nor could he say whether alcohol or drugs were involved in the incident.

Neither man appeared to suffer serious injuries, McKinley said.

the space — which will put the organization on more solid footing.

Lawrence Creates needs to raise about $42,000 to pay for the project, but work will begin soon because the group already has arranged for financing.

The building’s owners, a group led by members of the longtime Lawrence Hill family, has agreed to finance the improvements.

Lawrence Creates, though, will be doing several fundraising events in the coming months to pay off the debt — This is an excerpt from Chad Lawhorn’s Town Talk column, which appears each weekday on LJWorld.com.

might be useful to them in that autonomy and to increase their chances of having a greater level of private support from across the country,” he said. “(...) We’ve had a long-running conversation over the last several months with Haskell about trying to reduce the bureaucracy.”

As a senator, Moran said, he has tried to increase his involvement in tribal issues across the country. He is also a member of the Senate’s Committee on Indian Affairs.

“A significant part of what I’m involved in, in my conversations with tribes but also legislatively, is trying to make sure that the sovereign rights of Native Americans are protected,” he said. “Just like other folks outside Washington, D.C., the tribes see a significant increase in the role the federal government is trying to play in tribal affairs.”

Moran also said that if the issue of autonomy comes to legislation, he will try to persuade his

colleagues in the Senate to be supportive, or “knock on the doors” of the Bureau of Indian Affairs if it is an internal issue.

“If we can work with Haskell to find ways that they are better able to have more flexibility, to raise private funds, to make decisions about what’s in their best interest, I think that’s a good thing,” he said. “I want to make sure the commitment of the federal government is kept, but if there’s better ways to deliver the resources and the services, I’m all for that.”

Moran said the Eudora town hall touched on topics such as the role of federal government, the job climate, the Affordable Care Act and what might replace it when a new president is elected — “normal conversations that Kansans have.”

“This was my first town hall meeting as a senator in Eudora, and it was pleasing to be thanked for paying some attention to the citizens who live in that part of Douglas County,” he said. “It was a good conversation.”

dren’s time. Thank you for saying so.

Dear Annie: For several years, I have been giving identical amounts of money to my family on Thanksgiving so that they could spend it on Black Friday to purchase their own Christmas gifts.

I have 19 people to buy for. These same family members were asked to bring their purchases to me for wrapping so that they could open them on Christmas.

Ensembles rule in SAG awards Awards show buffs can feast on the 22nd Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards (7 p.m., TBS and TNT). These awards differ slightly in that, in addition to individual awards, they honor ensemble acting.

Among the TV dramas nominated in that category are “Mad Men,” “Downton Abbey,” ‘‘House of Cards,” ‘‘Homeland,” and “Game of Thrones.”

Nominated comedy ensembles include “Key & Peele,” “The Big Bang Theory,” “Modern Family,” “Orange Is the New Black,” “Transparent” and “Veep.”

“Fargo” and “Mozart in the Jungle” are notable absences from those lists. But nobody asked me.

Carol Burnett will receive the Life Achievement Award from Amy Poehler and Tina Fey. For those interested in somebody else’s expensive wardrobe, E! offers “Live From the Red Carpet” (5 p.m.) coverage.

Bonded by violence, two women (Viola Davis and Jennifer Lopez) seek vigilante justice in the 2015 indie-ish drama “Lila & Eve” (7 p.m., Lifetime), released theatrically last year.

Jennifer Lopez is all over the dial. She can now be seen several times a week on “American Idol” and in the NBC police drama “Shades of Blue.” Davis stars on ABC’s “How to Get Away With Murder.” “Lila & Eve” also features Shea Whigham, a standout who played Nucky’s compromised brother on “Boardwalk Empire.”

The popularity of Netflix’s “Making a Murderer” and Discovery’s “Killing Fields” indicates an audience appreciation of long-form true-crime narratives. It also reflects the continued success of the ID Network’s steady diet of true-crime re-enactment series.

Now that network pays homage to its imitator with “Steven Avery: Innocent or Guilty?” (8 p.m., TV-14), hosted by Keith Morrison (“Dateline”) — a look at the figures at the heart of “Making a Murderer.”

Tonight’s other highlights

The Cleveland Cavaliers

host the San Antonio Spurs in NBA action (7:30 p.m., ABC).

The atmosphere grows decidedly icy on “Doctor Who” (8 p.m., BBC America, TV-PG).

The weather proves too much for the Walrus crew on “Black Sails” (8 p.m., Starz, TV-MA).

Skiing and snowboarding take center stage at the Winter X Games (8 p.m., ESPN).

Renovators and investors go about fixing up and selling challenging, long-vacant properties blighting too many neighborhoods on the new series “Zombie House Flipping” (9 p.m., FYI, TV-PG).

Last year, I asked instead that they wrap their own gifts and bring them to our annual Christmas Eve party.

It worked out great!

Obviously, there were no returns or exchanges, and for a change, I got a kick out of seeing them open their presents instead of knowing what the gifts were ahead of time. This is easier on everybody.

(It also allowed my teenagers to see that money only goes so far because they knew what amount I had given each person.)

I have learned to enjoy the holidays again.

— L. Dear L.: You are both generous and smart enough to find enjoyment where you can.

Dear Annie: I love your advice and almost always agree with you.

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS

For Saturday, Jan. 30: This year you will do a lot of personal work. In many ways, you will revitalize your thinking and your emotional tenor. How you look at life will be very different.

Your instincts can be off when dealing with finances and love. If you are single, check out anyone you date carefully, as someone might not be who he or she appears to be. If you are attached, you and your sweetie love to take off together and vanish.

The stars show the kind of day you’ll have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult Aries (March 21-April 19) You have a way about you that draws many people toward you. Tonight: Add some spice to dinner and to the evening.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) Others want to be around you. A discussion allows you to understand a friendship better. Tonight: Have fun.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) Your playfulness is renowned, and you see life in a more carefree way. Tonight: Out late.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) You could be in a position in which you don’t know how to proceed. You have been cocooning at home lately. Tonight: Be spontaneous.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) Make calls, return emails and find out what everybody else is doing before making plans. Tonight:

But “Tired of Sex, So Blame Me” said her husband is sexually selfish and was like that in his 20s and 30s. She says sex is still all about him.

If he was sexually selfish in his 20s, why did she marry him? And if she was willing to marry him knowing this, what on earth makes her think he would change?

Your advice was sound, but I also think she needs to accept some of the responsibility for her current situation. — B. Dear B.: We agree that too many spouses marry with the unrealistic expectation that the partner will change. But we also know that it serves no purpose to chastise someone for a poor decision made 30 years ago.

Catch up on a friend’s news.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You could be in a position where you need to handle a financial matter first. Tonight: Let someone else treat.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Act as if you know what you want, and others will respond accordingly. Time is your ally. Tonight: Keep your eyes wide open.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Make it OK to take a day off just for you. You could have special plans that you don’t want to share with others. Tonight: A force to be dealt with.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You might want to rethink your plans. A friend might be intentionally vague. Tonight: Make it an early night.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Take charge of a situation, and make sure that you’re heading in the direction you desire. Tonight: A good time is had by all!

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Your mind wanders to other lands and distant friends.

Tonight: Start thinking about a trip.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) You could make a big difference to a loved one or a special friend. Tonight: Make it a cozy night at home.

Dear Annie: Here is another gift for older parents: A phone call or a visit at regular intervals.

I regret that I didn’t phone my parents more often, and when I visited, there didn’t seem to be a lot to talk about. But I realized that just being there was meaningful. Sometimes I took my needlework, and always asked whether there was anything I could do to be helpful. That included some mending, picking up hearing aid batteries, driving their rarely used car, and buying three pairs of slippers for a parent who was unable to go to the store, and returning the pairs that didn’t fit.

These are good memories. — Pat Dear Pat: For most parents, there is no better gift than their chil-

Clinton offered sound advice on Egypt Washington — Five years ago, President Obama made a decision that helped topple Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak. His policy represented a bet that the democratic surge of the Arab Spring could lead to a stable political transition in Egypt and elsewhere in the Middle East.

Obama’s embrace of the Tahrir Square protesters’ demand for Mubarak’s immediate departure was idealistic, popular and understandable at the time.

But it was arguably among the biggest mistakes of Obama’s presidency. And, interestingly, it’s an issue where Hillary Clinton was much closer to being right than the president.

Because these events helped shape the Middle East turmoil that has increased year by year since 2011, it’s worth reviewing them. This is not just a history lesson: The story bolsters Clinton’s case that she analyzed major foreign policy issues correctly during her time as secretary of state. The record suggests that if her advice had been followed, the U.S. might be in a stronger position in the Arab world today.

Clinton sent Obama a prophetic warning in January 2011 as the Egyptian crisis was beginning, which she quotes in “Hard Choices,” her 2014 book: “It all may work out fine in 25 years, but I think the period between now and then will be quite rocky for the Egyptian people, for the region, and for us.”

tion,” Clinton recalls. “But other members of the team appealed once again to the president’s idealism and argued that events on the ground were moving too quickly for us to wait. He was swayed.”

Obama went on television the night of Feb. 1 and said the transition “must begin now.” With that, the die was cast: The Muslim Brotherhood, the strongest opposition force in Egypt, had been late to join the uprising but now moved to take advantage of it. Clinton and Wisner continued to urge caution, but Obama chided them for sending “mixed messages” that undercut the White House line. The Tahrir protests escalated, the army refused to intervene, and Mubarak resigned on Feb. 11.

“Those of us who favored the stodgy-sounding ‘orderly transition’ position were concerned that the only organized forces after Mubarak were the Muslim Brotherhood and the military,” Clinton writes. She had that exactly right, as the past five years have demonstrated.

The exuberant protestors in Tahrir Square were irresistible, not just for Obama but for most of the world. But even in the streets, it was obvious that Egypt (with U.S. backing) was taking a risk. “The Egyptian people are making a bet that the Brotherhood won’t wreck their new experiment in democracy. But as is always the case with real political change, it’s impossible

“

The story bolsters Clinton’s case that she analyzed major foreign policy issues correctly during her time as secretary of state.”

Clinton narrates the basic story in her memoir: With protesters occupying Tahrir Square, Obama sent Frank Wisner, a respected former ambassador to Egypt, to meet with Mubarak on Jan. 31, 2011. The message was that Mubarak must pledge not to run again for president and begin a peaceful transition. In a televised speech the next night, Clinton writes, Mubarak “had actually come around to much of what Wisner had asked of him, but it was too little, too late — both for the crowds in the streets and the team in the Situation Room.”

The question then became whether to push Mubarak publicly toward an immediate transition. “Senior Cabinet officials, including me, counseled cau-

— David Ignatius is a columnist for Washington Post Writers Group.

From the Lawrence Daily JournalWorld for Jan. 30, 1916: “The entire town will gather at the Santa Fe station Wednesday morning to see and years hear President Wilson and to see ago Mrs. Wilson, according to present IN 1916 indications. The city schools and the University will be dismissed for the occasion and this morning Mayor W. J. Francisco issues a public recommendation that all business in town be suspended while the President’s train is in the city.”

“Carl Rankin who is here on a visit brought some genuine elk teeth which are on display at Sol Marks store where anyone interested may inspect them.”

to be sure,” I wrote at the time, after watching hundreds of thousands of Egyptian Muslims in celebratory mass prayers in Tahrir Square, “an image that evokes Tehran more than Cairo.”

One of history’s “what ifs” is what might have happened had Wisner been allowed to continue talking with Mubarak about a gradual change of power. In an interview Thursday, Wisner argued: “We ought to have been calling for an orderly transition, rather than telling Mubarak, ‘get out of town, get out of government,’ with no strategy for what happens next. We needed a responsible path to stability and evolution, not revolution.”

Nobody could have forecast the catastrophic chain of events that followed the Tahrir Square uprising. The coup in the streets led to the election of President Mohamed Morsi; his abuses triggered a counter-coup by the Egyptian military. Emboldened by events in Egypt, Muslim revolutionaries (with U.S. help) toppled a dictator in Libya and are still trying to overthrow one in Syria. And the rulers of Saudi Arabia are still traumatized

by America’s abandonment of Mubarak.

Many people got Egypt wrong. One of the few people who got the basics right is Clinton. That’s a card she should play more effectively in this campaign.

PUBLIC FORUM

Wrong focus To the editor: I cannot believe the enabling role that the major media has played in sponsoring the Trump candidacy for president.

The amount of free time the media has provided to his campaign activities has more than tripled the time provided to the other candidates combined. No wonder he has spent very little of his own funds for advertising.

While all of the others candidates spend their time and effort on discussing substantive issues that effect our country, Trump gets by with sound bites and personal attacks and other antics to distract the public from the fact that Trump hasn’t a clue on how to practically address the problems we face and the media encourages it by the dawn to dusk and beyond coverage of his ego blasts.

Trump is right about one thing: The driving force behind the media coverage of this campaign has nothing to do with issues with substance. It has everything to do with ratings. To them it is the entertainment factor and not the educational or informative factor that takes precedence in their coverage.

For 24 to 48 hours this week, most of the coverage was about Trump’s withdrawal from the Fox-sponsored Thursday night debate and his petty differences with Roger Ailes and Megyn Kelly. It is a very sad commentary on the state of our political process. Sound bites and personal attacks aren’t going

to solve our problems, folks.

Patrick Pritchard, Lawrence

Many contributions To the editor: I met Susan Tate, Lawrence Arts Center CEO, when she began her first assignment with the Lawrence public schools, teaching eighth grade English at Central Junior High School. She was an exceptional teacher and continued her career in education at Lawrence High School. Susan also became involved in the Lawrence community beyond the schoolhouse doors.

In 2009, when I heard that she was taking the reins at the Lawrence Arts Center, my first thought was of what a loss that would be to Lawrence High School. My second thought was that the LAC board got it right this time! Susan would be the perfect fit for the Arts Center! I was sad to learn that she will leave the Arts Center at the end of this year, but happy to hear that she will continue to contribute as a consultant.

I hope the Arts Center board continues to “think outside the box” when hiring a new CEO, and for me that means taking a good look inside the Lawrence community. Susan Tate spent her adult, working life contributing to the people of Lawrence, and she deserves their gratitude and good wishes for her future endeavors.

Weaker industrial production was expected to slow the economy at the end of 2015 — and it did. GDP grew at just 0.7%.

ECONOMY GROWS AT SNAIL’S PACE CONSUMER SPENDING TAKES A HIATUS DESPITE HEALTHY JOB GAINS IN Q4 Paul Davidson USA TODAY

The U.S. economy ended 2015 as it started — with a whimper.

Growth slowed substantially in the fourth quarter as businesses dialed back stockpiling and investment, the trade gap widened, and even consumers reined in spending.

Gross domestic product expanded at a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 0.7% the last three

months of the year, the Commerce Department said Friday.

Economists surveyed by Bloomberg expected 0.8% growth. The economy grew 2.4% for all of 2015, in line with last year’s pace and a bit higher than the tepid 2.2% average during the recovery.

The main culprits in the fourth quarter were a weak global economy and low oil prices, which have hammered manufacturers’ exports and business spending throughout 2015. But while healthy consumer spending propped up the economy in the second and third quarters, consumption slowed somewhat at the close of the year.

The sluggish economic growth contrasts starkly with robust job gains of an average 284,000 a month in the fourth quarter.

Some economists say the labor market provides a more accurate barometer of the economy’s health than GDP, which can be

difficult to measure and is subject to often dramatic revisions.

Last quarter, exports fell 2.5% and imports rose 1.1% as the relative strength of the U.S. economy bolstered the dollar, making U.S. products more expensive overseas and foreign shipments cheaper for American consumers.

A widening trade deficit subtracted nearly half a percentage point from economic growth.

Slower business stockpiling represented a similar-size drag as businesses right-sized their inventories after building them earlier in anticipation of sales that didn’t materialize, in part because of the weaker exports.

Non-residential investment also fell, by 1.8%, amid a downturn in factory output.

But residential investment was a big positive, rising 8.1%.

BERLIN The number of migrants who died trying to reach Europe by sea surged in January, according to a group that tracks people crossing the Mediterranean.

The Geneva-based International Organization for Migration said 244 people died attempting to reach Europe by boat in the first 28 days of 2016, most of them en route from the western Turkish coast to Greece. That was three times the 82 people who died making the treacherous voyage during the same period in 2015. In January 2014, 12 people perished at sea.

The organization said at least a dozen more people died after they reached Europe or while traveling to a destination in Turkey, where they could board a boat — usually belonging to a smuggler — to sail to Europe.

The group estimates 55,528 migrants made crossings to Europe so far this year — nearly 2,000 per day. The most popular access point is Greece’s Aegean Sea, followed by a central Mediterranean route from Libya to Italy. Many are fleeing war in Syria and other countries, while others are seeking better economic opportunities.

Germany took in more than 1 million migrants in 2015, about half of whom have made asylum applications, sparking a growing backlash. A poll for Germany’s Focus magazine showed 40% of Germans believe Chancellor Angela Merkel has mishandled the crisis and should step down.

37 pages of Clinton emails called ‘top secret’

Dangerous Alaska

Announcement could spark criticism days before Iowa caucuses

The federal government is censoring 37 pages of emails from Hillary Clinton’s private email server, saying they contain information considered “top secret.”

The move marks the first time her State Department emails have been accorded such a high level of classification.

Seven email chains are being

withheld in their entirety from release later Friday for including “top secret” information.

“The documents are being upgraded at the request of the intelligence community, because they contain a category of top secret information,” State Department spokesman John Kirby said. He said the messages had not been designated as top secret when sent, though the department “is focusing on whether they need to be classified today.”

Clinton, who served as secretary of State from 2009 to 2013, has long maintained she did not send or receive information that was classified at the time. She’s in a tight battle with Vermont Sen.

Hillary Clinton speaks Friday at a rally in Des Moines.

Bernie Sanders in Iowa, which holds caucuses that open the 2016 primary calendar Monday.

Clinton press secretary Brian

Fallon said the campaign objected to the decision.

“We firmly oppose the complete blocking of the release of these emails,” he said in a statement. “Since first providing her emails to the State Department more than one year ago, Hillary Clinton has urged that they be made available to the public. We feel no differently today.”

The State Department has been releasing monthly batches of Clinton’s emails after a court order last summer. Friday’s announcement likely will trigger increased criticism from GOP rivals about her decision to use a private email server, which has hung over her campaign from its start.

The seventh debate among the Republican presidential contenders — and last before the Iowa caucuses on Monday — featured seven of the top candidates on the main stage: retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson, Florida Sen. Marco Rubio, former Florida governor Jeb Bush, Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, Ohio Gov. John Kasich, New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie and Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul. Businessman Donald Trump did not attend the debate, which was hosted by Fox News and Google and held in Des Moines.

The republican presidential candidates debated in Iowa Jan. 28 and stretched the facts:

uRubio went too far in claiming Hillary Clinton “wants to put Barack Obama on the Supreme Court.”

An Iowa resident suggested such an appointment to Clinton, and she said she’d take it “under advisement.” uRubio also said the White House “still refuses to acknowledge” the shooting of a Philadelphia police officer Jan. 7 “had anything to do with terror.”

But a White House spokesman said terrorism may have been the motivation and that the Philadelphia Police Department would make that determination. uBush exaggerated in saying then-senator Obama killed the comprehensive immigration bill

in 2007 that had the support of President George W. Bush. uKasich credited the Medicaid expansion with a reduction in the prison recidivism rate in Ohio. But the rate isn’t as low as he claimed, and the latest figures are on inmates released well before the expansion. uCruz claimed an amendment he offered to the 2013 immigration bill “didn’t say a word about legalization.”

That’s technically true, but the effect of the amendment would have been to allow legalization of those in the country illegally. uRubio claimed that when he opposed a “path to citizenship” when running for the Senate in 2010, it was due to

legislation to provide “almost an instant path with very little obstacles moving forward.”

But a 2010 Senate bill provided the same types of obstacles as the bill Rubio later backed as a senator. uCruz claimed “millions” had lost jobs and been forced into part-time work because of the Affordable Care Act. But the economy has added millions of jobs since the employer mandate, and fewer people are working part-time for economic reasons. uKasich boasted of 400,000 jobs gained in the state under his governorship. But the rate of growth is below the national average.

Syria peace talks up in air over who will show up ‘I can’t give you a who, where, when,’ U.N. spokesman says

Jounalists attend a briefing at the United Nations Offices on the opening day of Syrian peace talks Friday in Geneva. The absence of key opposition members threatens to derail the biggest diplomatic push yet to resolve the nearly five-year-old civil war.

Oren Dorell USA TODAY

Hopes for any progress toward ending Syria’s long civil war appeared slim Friday, as efforts to hold peace talks in Geneva stalled over uncertainty about who would show up and when and where the meeting would take place.

U.N. spokesman Ahmad Fawzi acknowledged that a lot was still up in the air.

“They will start as planned, but I don’t have a time, I don’t have a location, and I can’t tell you anything about the delegations,” Fawzi told Reuters. “I can’t give you a time, I can’t give you a who, where, when.”

If it takes place, the meeting would be the third time members of Syria’s many opposition groups meet with representatives of Syrian President Bashar Assad’s government to discuss

how to end a war that has lasted nearly five years. The struggle, which began with the government’s brutal crackdown on peaceful protesters, has left 300,000 Syrians dead and displaced half of the country’s prewar population of 22 million,

including more than half a million flooding into Europe.

U.S.-supported opposition representatives organized by Saudi Arabia balked at joining the talks so long as Syrian forces backed by Russian aircraft continued to bombard rebel forces

and besiege areas where Syrians are starving. Their complaint echoes the demand of a U.N. Security Resolution passed last month.

“So far, the obstacles in front of the conference have yet to be removed,” Sabra said according

to Dubai-based Al Arabiya English. “There must be a halt to the bombardment of civilians by Russian planes, and sieges of blockaded areas must be lifted.”

Mark Toner, deputy spokesman for the U.S. State Department, urged the opposition on Thursday to join the talks “without preconditions.”

“This is really an historic opportunity for them to go to Geneva to propose serious, practical ways to implement a ceasefire and other confidencebuilding measures. And we still believe they should do so without preconditions,” Toner said.

Toner said (on Wednesday) the talks will “expose to the entire world which parties are serious about a potential peaceful political transition in Syria.”

And Russia must play a key role in bringing Assad to the table to make concessions, he said.

One of the biggest stumbling blocks to a peace deal is Assad’s fate.

The United States, Saudi Arabia and Turkey want him to go, while Russia and Iran are helping to keep him in power.

VIDEO OF FATAL SHOOTING AT ORE. PROTEST RELEASED Images taken by FBI plane show confrontation with Arizona rancher near remote wildlife refuge

Robert “LaVoy” Finicum was fatally shot Tuesday.

“Finicum reaches his right hand toward a pocket of his jacket.

He did have a loaded 9mm semiautomatic handgun in that pocket.”

Gordon Friedman and Melanie Eversley USA TODAY

BURNS , ORE . In an unexpected move, the FBI released video Thursday of state police officers fatally shooting one of the armed Oregon protesters who took over a remote wildlife refuge in a challenge claiming government landgrabbing and over-reaching.

Robert “LaVoy” Finicum, 56, died Tuesday during the arrest of occupation ringleader Ammon Bundy and four others during a traffic stop near the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge. His death was captured on video taken from an FBI plane that shot footage as Finicum, driving a white truck, was pursued and ultimately confronted and killed by Oregon State Police officers.

“I want to caution you that the video does show the shooting death of LaVoy Finicum,” said Greg Bretzing, the special agent in charge of the FBI field office in Portland. “We realize that viewing that piece of the video will be upsetting to some people, but we feel that it is necessary to show the whole thing unedited in the interest of transparency.”

He said it was “incumbent” on law enforcement to show the video of Finicum, who he said behaved recklessly and made a motion toward a gun in his coat pocket.

Supporters of the militants who took over the refuge had claimed Finicum, a rancher from Arizona who came to Oregon to support the protesters, was gunned down in cold blood. Some posts on social media have called his death an anti-government rallying cry. The FBI released the video to allay public concerns over “inflammatory” accounts of the shooting, Bretzing said.

Bretzing said Finicum eventually pulled the truck over and was ordered by officers to surrender.

“Finicum leaves the truck and steps through the snow,” Bretzing said. “Agents and troopers on scene had information that Finicum and others would be armed.

On at least two occasions, Finicum reaches his right hand toward a pocket on the left inside portion of his jacket. He did have a loaded 9mm semi-automatic handgun in that pocket. At this time, OSP troopers shot Finicum.”

FBI agents are not generally equipped with body cameras, but video involving Finicum was captured by the FBI plane. The footage at times is obscured by trees but at one point, Finicum can be seen reaching toward his jacket pocket.

The FBI said agents and troopers found three other loaded weapons inside the truck: two .223 caliber semi-automatic rifles and a .38 special revolver.

On Wednesday, Bundy urged his followers to leave the refuge.

The protesters had been holed up there for over three weeks.

Clinton, Sanders compete for O’Malley backers

TANNEN MAURY, EPA

They’ll be up for grabs in precincts where too few show up to make former Maryland governor viable Nicole Gaudiano USA TODAY

WASHINGTON Come Monday night, supporters of former Maryland governor Martin O’Malley could be some of the most popular caucus-goers in Iowa.

That’s because they’ll be up for grabs in precincts where too few of them show up to make O’Malley viable, under caucus rules, to compete for the Democratic presidential nomination. In such cases, O’Malley’s backers may choose a different candidate, a fact not lost on Hillary Clinton or Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders.

Both campaigns are eager to claim O’Malley’s supporters for themselves in what’s now a neckand-neck race in Iowa — and they’re preparing to recruit them.

“In places where he’s not viable, they would add to our numbers because we would be a comfortable place for them to go,” said Pete D’Allesandro, Sanders’ Iowa director.

Michelle Kleppe, Clinton’s Iowa organizing director, said “It’s absolutely an opportunity and I think one that we feel very confident and comfortable and ready to be able to take on.”

Democratic caucus-goers in Iowa may switch allegiances if their attendance doesn’t meet a viability threshold. That threshold, a percentage of all caucus participants at a given precinct, varies depending on the precinct.

Until caucus night, it won’t be clear which candidates will be viable in each of the state’s nearly 1,700 precincts.

O’Malley’s backing statewide is

about 4.4%, according to a RealClearPolitics average of recent polls, and his viability could be threatened if his support is spread too thin across precincts.

Clinton is averaging 46.7% support and Sanders is averaging 44.6% support.

During a CNN Iowa Democratic Presidential Town Hall on Monday, O’Malley urged his supporters to “hold strong at your caucus” even if his viability seems in doubt.

D’Allesandro said O’Malley has a hard-working coalition and probably will be viable in many precincts. But if his supporters are looking for another place to land, he said, the Sanders campaign will have talking points ready to sell them on why the Vermont senator is their best second choice.

O’Malley’s backers likely agree with Sanders about the need to reform Wall Street, end income inequality and change “establishment politics,” D’Allesandro said.

Rather than solidifying Clinton’s front-runner position, O’Malley’s supporters may want to side with Sanders to “elongate” the Democratic primary process, giving O’Malley more chances to compete, he said.

“We think we can have a very positive conversation with his supporters,” D’Allesandro said.

Clinton’s precinct captains, meanwhile, have spent months reaching out to their own supporters and non-supporters in individual precincts to develop relationships and understand the issues they care about.

“If an O’Malley supporter is really passionate about gun control, and our precinct captain or

volunteer leadership has spoken with them about that before, that is kind of a natural segue for us to be able to have that conversation in that room and ideally bring that caucus-goer over to our side,” Kleppe said.

Julie Stauch, a Clinton precinct leader from West Des Moines who has participated in eight caucuses since 1984, knows what it’s like to support a candidate who isn’t viable. She and other supporters of retired Army Gen. Wesley Clark in her precinct realigned as a group behind John Kerry in 2004 because Kerry’s campaign offered an incentive — to let one former Clark supporter serve as a county convention delegate.

Stauch hasn’t spoken to O’Malley supporters in her precinct, but research on Facebook and news sources tells her supporters of O’Malley and Clinton have similar thoughts on gun control and the need for a president with administrative experience.

“There’s certainly a lot of common ground,” said Stauch, who has held mock caucus nights where Clinton’s precinct leaders practice negotiating techniques.

Stauch said she’s prepared to show her respect for O’Malley’s supporters at her precinct by praising the former governor’s gun safety measures in Maryland.

She said she would also be prepared to tempt them with the same kind of offer Kerry’s campaign made to her fellow Clark backers in 2004.

“The best way to approach them is to find out what we have in common and what motivates them,” Stauch said. “I call the game caucus poker. You have to look at the hand you’re dealt, and you have to figure out, ‘How can I come out of this in the strongest position?’ ”

Also, her campaign hasn’t been plagued by verbal gaffes as it was in 2008 when some black voters were turned off by comments from Bill Clinton they believed diminished Obama. Perhaps most importantly, polling trends in states such as South Carolina bear little similarity to early 2008, when blacks were moving toward Obama in significant numbers even before Iowa.

Politics and history work in mysterious ways. Take the Iowa caucuses, for example.

Come Monday night, residents of Iowa will cast the first votes of the 2016 presidential election — a power bequeathed them by a Democratic delegate rules fight from the 1960s and the ambitions of an up-and-coming politician named Jimmy Carter in 1976.

“He really created the transformative moment,” said Julian Zelizer, a biographer of the man who pioneered the Iowa caucuses and became the nation’s 39th president.

dates themselves combine to make the Iowa caucuses a heartland institution.

In some ways, the influence of the Iowa caucuses stems from the tumultuous 1968 Democratic convention in Chicago. Critics protested the way Democratic power brokers controlled the nomination process, including selection of convention delegates.

The party responded with new rules on picking delegates, changes that basically forced Iowa to change the calendar of a caucus system it had used since the mid-19th century.

When Iowa Democrats moved up their 1972 caucuses to January, candidate and future Democratic nominee George McGovern — who had been involved in the rule changes — traveled to the Hawkeye State to campaign.

McGovern’s exertions drew the attention of aides to the then-little-known governor of Georgia:

Jimmy Carter. After announcing his long-shot presidential bid in late 1974, Carter began racing across Iowa, recruiting volunteers, appearing on local radio and television stations, and creating staged events that began to draw media coverage — basically the same thing that happens today.

It was Carter who made the Iowa caucuses “a substantive, multimedia event,” Zelizer said.

Carter won Iowa in 1976 — sort of. He finished ahead of other Democratic candidates but behind an “uncommitted” slate of delegates. Still, the attention lavished on Carter helped propel him to the presidency and inspired succeeding candidates, including Barack Obama in 2008.

Carter also served as a model for Republican candidates. In 1980, former congressman, diplomat and CIA director George H.W. Bush upset prohibitive fa-

(A political parlor question: Where would the Bush family be today if H.W. Bush had not taken Iowa in 1980?)

By that time, Iowa was on par with New Hampshire’s “first-inthe-nation” primary — and began taking some criticism from voters in other states. According to a Morning Consult poll released this week, 50% of voters said they would support reducing the influ-

science professor who specializes in southern politics and public opinion polling, said of possible Sanders wins in the first two states.

As candidates from both parties cross Iowa making closing arguments, Democrats are gazing toward South Carolina, which holds its Democratic primary on Feb. 27. Should Sanders win Iowa, where he’s in a tight race with Clinton, his campaign believes he can erode her southern advantage enough to keep the competition fierce well into March.

South Carolina state Rep. Terry Alexander was among a handful of black lawmakers to stand by Clinton over Obama in 2008.

Now he’s supporting Sanders, and he says his candidate doesn’t necessarily have to capture the same level of support among blacks as Obama did.

“I told Mr. Sanders, ‘You’re doing pretty good, we just need to hit a little harder,’ ” Alexander said. “If we get 35% of the black vote it’s over, and that’s not a high lift anymore.”

Iowa residents, meanwhile, say they like the arrangement. As with their counterparts in New Hampshire, voters in Iowa say their state is small enough for candidates to get around and see many people. The voters, in turn, get to see a lot of the candidates and take the process seriously.

Activist Carl Icahn to name three to board of new services side Mike Snider USA TODAY

Xerox will separate into two companies, a $11 billion document technology company and a $7 billion business services company, the office equipment maker announced Friday.

The transaction into two independent publicly traded companies is expected to be complete by the end of the year. Xerox also announced a three-year restructuring program expected to save $2.4 billion.

These “significant actions ... define the next chapter of our company,” said Chairman and CEO Ursula Burns in a conference call Friday morning.

“We are creating two companies that will be market leaders benefiting from enhanced strategic and operational focus (with) distinct and clear financial profiles, capital allocation policies and simplified organization structures,” Burns said. “As stand alone companies, they will have compelling investment cases and be better positioned to capitalize on growth opportunities and expand margins and market share.”

Billionaire investor Carl Icahn will have a continuing part to play in the separation. He will name three members to the board of the business services company and can also select someone to observe and advise the search for a CEO of that company. “We applaud Ursula Burns and Xerox’s Board of Directors for recognizing the importance of separating Xerox into two publicly traded companies,” Icahn said in a statement included in the announcement.

The move comes more than 70 years after the Rochester, N.Y.based Haloid Co., the company that would eventually become Xerox, acquired the rights for xer ography, or photocopying, from Chester Carlson. The company brought the Xerox 941 to market in 1959 and changed its name to Xerox two years later.

These “significant actions ... define the next chapter of our company,” Xerox CEO Ursula Burns says.

The two Xerox companies will be “more flexible, more responsive and essentially more fit and focused.”

Palo Alto (Calif.) Research Center would develop what would become the personal computer, the PC desktop graphic interface and the Ethernet standard, but other innovators such as Apple’s Steve Jobs would make those mass market products.

The company has struggled as the printer business slowed, market activity that also led to a similar split by larger competitor HP. In November 2015, HP split into two companies: Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE), which sells hardware such as servers for data

centers, and HP Inc., which sells PCs and printers.

However, Xerox remains a Fortune 500 company and is also on Fortune’s 2015 Most Admired company list.

Shares of Xerox were up more than 5% Friday to $9.74. Shares have fallen about 30% from 12 months ago, while the S&P 500 has fallen about 6%.

In its previous quarter Xerox posted a net loss of $34 million, compared to $266 million in profit during the same quarter in 2014. In November, Icahn announced that he had acquired an 8.1% stake in Xerox — making him the second-largest shareholder — and labeled shares of the company as “undervalued.”

The split, Icahn said, would result in “an independent company with fresh, focused leadership and best-in-class corporate governance (that) will greatly enhance shareholder value.”

Xerox had begun a structural review of its operations in October and Icahn did not speak to the company until after it had begun that review, Burns said. “We are happy he is in agreement with it, but he did not drive it,” she told CNBC Friday after the announcement of the transaction. After the split, the two Xerox companies will be “more flexible, more responsive and essentially more fit and focused for the markets that we are attacking,” Burns said.

Xerox announced fourth-quarter adjusted earnings of 32 cents per share, beating expectations of 28 cents, based on S&P Capital IQ Consensus Estimates. Revenue of $4.7 billion fell short of $4.74 billion analysts expected.

Dow caps volatile January with 396-point rally Adam Shell USA TODAY

The Dow rose nearly 400 points Friday to cap a turbulent month on an upbeat note after a surprise interest-rate cut by the Bank of Japan and despite a report showing weak fourth-quarter U.S. growth.

It has been a dreary month for stocks. The Dow Jones industrial average kicked off the final trading day of the month down 7.78% for 2016 and still in correction mode, or down more than 10% from its peak. A weak January does not bode well for the remainder of the year, as Wall Street often says that, “As January goes, so goes the market” for the rest of the year.

But January — which has seen stocks battered amid a continued slide in oil prices, fears of a global slowdown due to China’s slowing

growth and uncertainty about interest-rate policy in the U.S. — ended with what looks like another “relief rally.” Whether this bounce lasts remains to be seen, as prior bounces have faltered amid fresh selling sparked by a new diet of negative headlines.

A weaker-than-expected reading on fourth-quarter 2015 economic growth, or GDP, didn’t deter investors. Growth came in at an anemic 0.7%, below the 0.8% forecast, the latest sign that the U.S. economy has been negatively impacted by market turmoil, growth fears and less support from the U.S. Federal Reserve.

Fourth-quarter GDP trailed the 2% growth in the third quarter of 2015.

The big headline Friday was a move by Japan’s central bank to push interest rates into negative territory in an effort to boost economic activity, combat dangerously low inflation and spur more

bank lending. The BoJ followed the policy path of the European Central Bank in pushing the rate for deposits down to -0.1% for current financial firms that have cash deposited at the BoJ. A negative interest rate means depositors pay the bank to keep their money. In normal times, banks pay depositors interest.

“The BoJ decision boosted risk sentiment and has fueled expectations for additional easing by other central banks, such as the ECB,” Nikolaos Sgouropoulos of Barclays told clients in a note before the opening bell. ECB chief Mario Draghi recently said the eurozone central bank would consider injecting more stimulus into its system at its March meeting to jump-start growth and combat low inflation.

Facebook tops tech titans in January But it’s Google that could soon be No. 1 John Shinal

THE NEW TECH ECONOMY

SAN

FRANCISCO

January is going into the books as the worst start to a year for technology stocks since the Great Recession.

But as usual there is opportunity amid crisis, as the drop may have served to preview which tech stocks are likely to lead (or lag) the sector in 2016.

January showed Facebook remains a market leader, gaining 7% during a month the mostvaluable tech firms saw their shares either tread water or fall.

Google parent Alphabet, Facebook’s main rival in that market, may still be a leader, depending on how the market reacts to its fourth-quarter report next week.

Its shares are close to flat yearto-date, down 2%. Microsoft’s are also flat despite its Friday surge.

Its latest report will put it in higher favor among value investors, but its near-term revenue expectations will need to come up to attract more growth money.

BRENDAN SMIALOWSKI, AFP/GETTY IMAGES

Shares of Apple, maker of the iPhone, are down 8% in 2016.

Shares of Apple are off 8%, and Amazon has fallen 13% this year, painting a more-pessimistic picture of where tech stocks could be going this year.

Many momentum tech investors who’ve been selling Apple over the last three months may have been buying Google, judging by the huge swing in market cap between the two tech giants.

At one point during midday trading Thursday, when Apple was worth $516.5 billion and Alphabet $511.6 billion, Google’s parent company came within 1% of becoming the most valuable tech firm. That’s a huge shift from the end of the third quarter, when investors judged Apple to be worth 22% more ($629 billion vs. $491 billion).

Amazon’s near-term status as a tech stock leader may be in question for some after it missed Wall Street’s fourth-quarter profit expectations by a huge margin. Yet longer-term investors may have noticed its annual revenue forecast was ever-so-slightly above expectations, and its fourth-quarter revenue miss was by 0.5%.

After Amazon’s shares soared 117% last year, shareholders expecting more of the same may have to get realistic about what kind of returns await them this year, especially if the company keeps up its fourth-quarter pace of spending. Still, Amazon’s 2016 revenue forecast puts growth at 20%. By contrast, Wall Street is expecting a slight sales drop at rival Microsoft for its fiscal 2016, which ends midyear.

Those Microsoft expectations could be going up in the wake of better-than-expected sales and profit it reported Thursday.

Alphabet is expected to post growth of 16% this year, but that number will be updated with its year-end report, on Feb. 1.

As the leap month of February begins, Facebook and Microsoft look to be attracting more investment from tech growth and momentum investors. Apple is not, while Amazon may struggle to keep investors worried about value interested in the stock.

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

After the bloodletting suffered by the Dow Jones industrial average in January —it tumbled 5.5% to post its worst start to a year since the 2009 financial crisis — Wall Street let out a big exhale Friday when the blue-chip stock gauge rallied nearly 400 points, its best day since late August.

Now, the $64,000 question is: Can the gains last? Nobody knows for sure, but Friday’s rally sure takes the sting off what was looking like a horrific start to 2016, when the Dow was off nearly 2,000 points earlier in the month and on track for its worst start to a year — ever.

What Wall Street needs now is a big-time follow-through day.

Plenty of Force left in ‘Star Wars’ game publisher Q: Is it game over for Electronic Arts?

Matt Krantz

mkrantz@usatoday.com USA TODAY

A: Star Wars and video games.

Those two things mixed together should be a license to print money. But investors are having second thoughts.

Shares of Electronic Arts fell $5.04, or 7%, to $64.75 Friday after the videogame publisher announced 26% higher quarterly revenue of $1.8 billion. The company’s Star Wars Battlefront game sold 13 million units, which was above expectations. The company also reported 50% higher adjusted profit of $1.83 a share, beating estimates.

So why aren’t the shares hitting a high score?

The reason is that they’ve already been shooting the lights out as investors anticipated a solid fourth quarter. Electronic Arts shares are up 26% over the past 12 months, a stellar performance when the Standard & Poor’s 500 is down 6%. Shares of Electronic Arts are now trading for 25 times earnings over the past 12 months, which is more than 40% more expensive than the market.

Guidance for the future isn’t helping either. The company said it expects revenue in the current quarter to be $875 million — which is below the $887 million investors were anticipating, S&P Capital IQ says.

Analysts still think you shouldn’t bail out and there’s plenty of upside left.

This year’s Academy Awards have been a lightning rod for outrage and boycotts ever since the nominees were unveiled two weeks ago. But look beyond major categories such as directing and acting, and you can find movies that better reflect the world’s diversity.

“Short films are frankly some of the most diverse, wide-ranging sets of stories that the academy gives awards to,” says Carter Pilcher, chief executive of ShortsHD, which has teamed with Magnolia Pictures to bring 2016 Oscar Nominated Short Films to select theaters starting Friday.

The program — now in its 11th year and featuring all 15 live-action, animation and documentary short films nominated — will expand to more than 400 theaters across North America in the weeks leading up to the Oscars on Feb. 28. The shorts also will become available

Ten of 12 experts predict the documentary short honor will go to Body Team 12, which already has been picked up by HBO to air in March. The film was shot in Liberia last year by humanitarian David Darg, who embedded himself with a team tasked with collecting and cremating the bodies of Ebola virus victims.

Although the country has since been declared free of Ebola transmission by the World Health Organization, people such as Garmai Sumo, the team’s only female member, continue to care for children orphaned by the epidemic.

“During the outbreak, we had a lot of images of body workers in those yellow suits and goggles and masks,” Darg says. “The film is really taking away that protective gear and telling the story of the people underneath the masks, like, ‘Who were these people who were willing to risk everything?’ It’s a tribute to the work they did and the bravery of those body teams.”

Game of Thrones and The Walking Dead have nothing on The 100 when it comes to darkness.

The post-apocalyptic show, which returned for its third season on CW Thursday, is coming off a second-season finale in which its hero makes a choice to kill hundreds in order to save her own people. But the show’s cast and creator say it just might get even bleaker.

“The reason the show is as dark as it is is because I’m a sick guy,” jokes executive producer Jason Rothenberg. “No, basically, it’s a post-apocalyptic nightmare!

It’s a world about survival and kill or be killed.”

The 100 follows a group of survivors trying to rebuild on Earth after a nuclear holocaust. Its first season focused on a group of 100 juvenile delinquents sent down from a surviving space station to

try to live on the ground, while Season 2 brought the survivors in conflict with the new societies that had formed. Season 3 manages to partially reinvent the show again, expanding the world of the “Grounders” and bringing in more sci-fi with an artificialintelligence character.

“It is a very different season, that’s for sure,” Rothenberg says.

“I like to do that. I like to change it up every year.”

Last year, the show dealt with the question of how far the good guy has to go to become the bad guy. This year is what it means to be human, which Rothenberg calls “a little bit lighter.”

Themes of humanity are not lost on the cast, whose characters

are going to more emotional places as the season progresses.

The show’s hero and protagonist Clarke, played by Australian actress Eliza Taylor, starts the season in exile after her role in the massacre at the end of Season 2.

“She goes through a serious emotional journey,” Taylor says.

“She’s gone from absolutely running away from all her problems and not being able to cope to her people needing her and having to come back and actually face them. ... I think Clarke’s pretty jaded from everything that’s happened.”

“I wish I could say that it doesn’t get darker than a massacre of a civilization,” says Devon Bostick, who plays fan-favorite

Jasper. “But from what I’ve seen and read I believe it does. ... I’m excited and terrified for fans’ reactions this year.”

Jasper has morphed from a lovable comic-relief character to one who struggles with PTSD and alcoholism.

“At the end of Season 2, it sort of seemed like Jasper was becoming this strong leading type and then his entire foundation kind of got pulled out from under him,” Bostick says. “Jasper is probably at his lowest point.”

“The weird thing about our show is that just when you think it can’t get any darker, it does,” Taylor adds. “It’s taking some really interesting turns this season. ... It makes for a very different kind of darkness.”

The show’s unrelenting bleakness may break fans’ hearts this year. But that’s the point.

“No one is safe,” Rothenberg says. “To me that makes watching the show that much more of a visceral experience. ... I don’t think we’ve invented that formula — Walking Dead does it, Game of Thrones does it — and it keeps the drama alive. And I think this season is going to surprise a lot of people.”

TE Kelce signs five-year extension with KC

By Dave Skretta AP Sports Writer

Kansas City, Mo. — Travis Kelce spent Friday morning in Hawaii getting ready for his first Pro Bowl, shortly after signing a $46 million, five-year extension that made him one of the NFL’s highest-paid tight ends.

Oh, and he’s about to star in a reality dating show.

“I’m living the dream,” Kelce said. “Literally.”

Never has a cliché been more appropriate.

The Kansas City C h i e f s signed their burgeoning young pass catcher to a deal that inKelce cludes $20.5 million in guarantees, a person familiar with the situation told the Associated Press. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the Chiefs did not reveal terms of the agreement.

“He’s a talented football player that has become an important piece to what we do offensively,” general manager John Dorsey said in a statement. “Travis is a high-character guy and a leader.”

Kelce was entering the final year of his rookie contract. He missed the majority of the 2013 season after undergoing microfracture surgery on his knee, but has started 27 of the 33 games he’s played over the past three seasons.

He has caught 139 passes for 1,737 yards and 10 touchdowns.

He’s coming off a breakout season that included 72 catches for 875 yards and five touchdowns, and resulted in an 11-5 record and Kansas City’s first playoff victory in 22 years.

“I’m ecstatic. I can’t be more thankful, more happy for the situation I’m in right now,” Kelce said. “I love Kansas City to death.

I’ve embraced it since I got there. ... It’s a blue-collar city just like I grew up in, and I can’t be more thankful how they embraced me as a player.”

Kelce had some character questions coming out of Cincinnati, where he was suspended for an entire season for violating team rules. But not only has Kelce steered clear of any trouble with the Chiefs, he has become a locker-room leader and one of the most popular players on the team.

“It’s hard to bring all of this to reality,” he said.

“With all this comes a lot of responsibility, and I’m just more ready than ever to go out here and be a dominant performer for years to come.”

The contract extension takes care of at least one aspect of Kelce’s busy offseason.

After the Pro Bowl, he will star in a reality dating show on E! called “Catching Kelce.” While details of the show have been kept under wraps, Kelce’s stab at love is expected to have elements of “The Bachelor” and “Survivor” and involve 50 women vying for his attention.

The show is tentatively scheduled to premiere later this year.

KENTUCKY COACH JOHN CALIPARI URGES HIS TEAM ON DURING a victory over Missouri on Wednesday in Lexington, Ky. The Wildcats will be in Allen Fieldhouse at 6 tonight to face Kansas University.

Traditional powers primed for battle

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

John Calipari, who worked as an assistant coach at Kansas University from 1982 to ’85, knows firsthand how loud it gets on game day in 16,300-seat Allen Fieldhouse.

“I’m going to tell you, our building (23,500-seat Rupp Arena) ... we played North Carolina here and won on the last play. It was so loud. Allen Fieldhouse is louder, like much louder,” Calipari, Kentucky’s seventh-year coach, said at a news conference

Friday afternoon in Lexington.

“Acoustically, it (Allen) is built like that,” he added, waving his arm in an arc, “so the sound hits it (roof), and it comes right back at you and literally moves you. If you are standing, and they (KU fans) get really loud, it’ll move you.

I was there. I coached there, and I was like, ‘Oh my gosh, I can feel it.’

“It’s like you are at a concert, and you are near the bass and ‘Boom, Boom, Boom’ you feel it. It’ll be interesting for these young guys to walk in and hear it and feel it,” Cali-

pari continued, referring to his Wildcats (16-4), who meet the Jayhawks (16-4) today in a 6 p.m. tipoff on ESPN. Calipari’s pre-KU news conference was dominated with talk of the atmosphere in the fieldhouse and Calipari’s time in Lawrence, during which he first worked for Ted Owens, then Larry Brown.

“You have the game, and all of a sudden they (Jayhawks) make a play, another play, you miss a play, and all of a sudden literally you are feeling this sound come at you,” Calipari said. “It’s like where people love coming to play in

Rupp because they can say, ‘I played in Rupp.’ Going to Allen Fieldhouse ... these guys will experience something they will never experience in their life in that building.

“There’s no pro arena like that. There’s no other arena we’re going to walk into that’s going to be that bad,” Calipari noted. “We walk into great arenas. (But) I’m just telling you I was in there.

I think the building was built in the ’50s. When I was there in the ’80s, you could eat off the floor. Literally they had Please see HOOPS, page 3C

rare to see it happen to an entire team all at once.

Free State High’s girls basketball players missed 11 straight shots to end the first half Friday, going scoreless in the second quarter during their 57-41 loss to Derby in the semifinals of the Firebird Winter Classic at FSHS. Facing Derby’s 2-3 zone with 6-foot-5 freshman Kennedy Brown in the middle, the Firebirds had open looks on the perimeter. Their shots just wouldn’t fall. Junior Madison Piper, the Sunflower League’s leading scorer, saw seven straight three-point attempts rattle around the rim.

— Free State’s Madison Piper Despite Free State’s shooting woes, the Panthers (12-0, ranked No. 3 in Class 6A) only led by four points in the second quarter before scoring eight points in the final two minutes for a 23-11 halftime advantage.

Senior guard Haley Mills, who scored a team-high 17 points, drilled two threes, and freshman guard Tor’e Alford drove to the rim for a layup.

“It’s really frustrating because we got a lot of open looks but we just couldn’t

hit them,” Piper said. “They were good shots. I don’t think we took very many bad shots. But I think we let it get into our heads.”

In the first two minutes of the second half, the sixth-ranked Firebirds (83) missed two shots and turned the ball over three times. They finally ended an 11-minute scoreless streak when junior guard Jaycie Bishop drove into the paint and dished a pass to senior guard Hannah Walter, who converted on a layup.

With the lid off of the rim, the Firebirds tried to rally. Piper connected on three triples, senior forward Peyton Brown made a laSam Goodwin/Special to the Journal-World yup while being fouled, and Walter scored six points in FREE STATE’S CAITI SCHLESENER (11) shoots against Derby.

KANSAS BASKETBALL

Last year’s UK game left bad taste

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Kansas University’s basketball team blasted Kentucky, 150-95, on Dec. 9, 1989, in Allen Fieldhouse, handing UK its second-worst loss in school history — worst since an 87-17 setback to Pella, Iowa, in 1910.

In a somewhat delayed counter punch, the Wildcats slugged KU, 72-40, in November of 2014 at the Champion’s Classic in Indianapolis — the fourthworst loss in Jayhawk history and worst in the Bill Self era.

The 32-point drubbing happened so recently, it might give the Jayhawks extra incentive for today’s 6 p.m. KU-UK battle in Allen.

“I think it’s just natural it’s in the back of everybody’s mind. We all remember it. Those of us that were here last year.

There’s not a ton that needs to be said,” said KU junior forward Landen Lucas.

“It was terrible,” Lucas added of the locker-room atmosphere following

that drubbing. “That was by far the worst loss I’ve been a part of here at Kansas. That rarely happens. It’s something it sucks, but it’s awesome we get to play them this year. It’s not like that was a one-time deal. We get to play them again. I know it’s not the same team. It’s still Kentucky.”

The No. 20-ranked Wildcats (16-4) hold a commanding 22-6 lead over No. 4-ranked KU in the all-time series, with UK winning the last three under the direction of coach John Calipari.

Overall, the two schools enter the Big 12/SEC Challenge as the winningest programs of all time: Kentucky has 2,194 wins, KU 2,169.

“Last year’s game was an anomaly. We had a great team. It’s not going to be like that. You’ve got to throw that out of there,” said UK senior Alex Poythress. “We know some of their personnel from playing last year.

Coach does a great job of scouting. We are going into the game with a pretty good idea of what they do.”

“

think it’s the same team,” Lucas said. “They lost a lot of their shot-blockers.

They still have a lot of bigs who can block shots.

KC, Kennedy finalize deal Hoops

By Dave Skretta

AP Sports Writer

Kansas City, Mo. — Ian Kennedy remembers watching the Kansas City Royals beat the New York Mets in five games to win the World Series and marveling at a dynamic defense that seemed to never make a mistake.

Then he considered what was behind him in San Diego.

“Our defense was really bad,” Kennedy said with a smile.

So when he became a free agent after the season, Kennedy jumped at the prospect of signing with the Royals. He would be pitching in spacious Kauffman Stadium to standout catcher Salvador Perez, and have a fielding corps behind him that features a slew of Gold Glove winners.

“I’ve always wanted to play with guys like that, and good teams I’ve played with, they’ve had that,” Kennedy said.

“They play unbelievable defense.”

Well, Kennedy is getting his chance to play with guys like that again.

PITCHER IAN KENNEDY DELIVERS for the Padres in an Oct. 1 game in San Diego. The Kansas City Royals announced their $70 million, five-year deal with Kennedy on Friday.

The Royals announced their $70 million, fiveyear deal with him on Friday. They agreed to terms nearly two weeks ago, but Kennedy was in Hawaii and didn’t want to cut his vacation short, so they put off the announcement so that it could coincide with the team’s annual FanFest.

He gets $7.5 million next year, $13.5 million in 2017, $16 million in 2018 and $16.5 million each of the final two seasons. He can opt out after the 2017 season, receive a $6 million buyout and become

a free agent again. If he opts out, the agreement would become a $27 million, two-year deal.

“I wanted to go to a team that would win,” Kennedy said. “You ask anybody, we’d all say the same thing: ‘We want to go to a winner, or a chance to go to a winner.’”

The 31-year-old Kennedy went 9-15 with a 4.28 earned-run average for the San Diego Padres last season, but he is four years removed from a 21win season with the Arizona Diamondbacks.

KU WOMEN’S HOOPS PREVIEW When: 5 p.m. today Where: United Supermarkets Arena, Lubbock, Texas Who: Texas Tech Series: Tech leads, 16-9

While this is first-year KU coach Brandon Schneider’s first trip to Lubbock, Texas, the Jayhawks have won three in a row at Texas Tech.

Is this it?: Kansas University’s women’s basketball team has yet to win a Big 12 game this season, losing by an average of 24 points (67.2-43.2) in nine conference outings.

The league standings say KU’s game tonight at Texas Tech might be the best chance yet for the Jayhawks (5-15 overall, 0-9 Big 12) to bust out of an 11-game losing slump. The Red Raiders (10-10, 1-8) are only a game ahead of Kansas in the conference win column.

In Big 12 action, Tech ranks last in the league in points allowed (74.8 a game), free-throw percentage (60 percent) and fieldgoal-percentage defense (47.5 percent).

The lone Red Raiders conference win came at home against Iowa State in overtime, on Jan. 17.

Texas Tech averages 55.6 points a game — still 12.4 a game better than KU’s 43.2.

Search for front-court production: KU has searched all season for consistent scoring from its post players. Junior forward Caelynn ManningAllen had her best Big 12 performance of the season earlier this week, at No. 6 Texas. Manning-Allen shot 6-for-9, providing 14 points and six rebounds in 29 minutes.

It marked the first time since Dec. 22 that the junior forward scored in double figures.

Still, KU scored a season-low two points in the paint against the mighty Longhorns.

Freshman forward Tyler Johnson, who had started the previous game for KU, only played 11 minutes off the bench and scored two points at UT. Deep threat: Kansas sophomore guard Lauren Aldridge has hit two or more three-pointers in

five of her last six games, including a 5-for-8 showing at Texas.

On the season, Aldridge (11.1 points per game) is shooting 37.9 percent from long range.

During her past six games, Aldridge has made 16 of her 37 shots from long distance — 43.2 percent.

(They said), ‘I’ve got to make sure there’s not one little thing on this floor.’

It’s like a shrine. It’s great.”

Calipari was looking forward to soaking in the atmosphere during a 7 p.m. Friday practice in Allen.

“I love the tradition of it. I’ve got to take a picture of … Bob Marcum, former AD, is one of my dear friends. His portrait is on that wall (in KU’s Booth Hall of Athletics).

I’ll take a picture of that and send it out when we get there tonight. Their Hall of Fame stuff ... our people need to go out and see it and see how they have set it up, because it’s really neat,” Calipari said.

Calipari told Kentucky media members that his fondest memory of KU was “meeting my wife.

You knew I was going to say that. I had nothing, no aspirations for anything other than to learn basketball. I felt so blessed I had an opportunity to start on that campus. The guy who invented the game was their first coach. Phog Allen coached Adolph Rupp ... Wilt, Jo Jo, you can go on and on and all the others.”

Calipari likes to talk about being in basketball heaven at KU despite having “no money” at that time.

“I got a Plymouth Arrow. Do they still make Plymouth Arrows? I don’t think so,” he said of the car brand. “ ... Could you imagine being 23, 22 and your first opportunity to be around the game is in a program like Kansas?

Every day I woke up I was like, ‘I can’t believe this.’ I had the same feeling when I got this job.

John Robic (UK assistant who also worked at KU) and I looked out and saw ‘Kentucky’ across that wall out there. It was glittering. I’m like, ‘Can you imagine that we’re here at Kentucky?’ Kansas is the exact same kind of program.”

Calipari says, oddly enough, he doesn’t recall seeing a game in Allen since he left town.

“I’ve only been back a couple times. My wife (Ellen) is coming with us.

She usually doesn’t travel unless it’s the NCAA Tournament,” Calipari said. “Her parents are going to meet her. She grew

will formally present Naismith’s original rules of basketball to KU officials in a halftime ceremony. ...

A high resolution 360-degree photo will be taken immediately following the alma mater and Rock Chalk Chant at the 12-minute mark on the pregame clock. The image will be over 26 billion pixels in size. Fans, who will be given extra-large crimson, blue or white T-shirts upon arrival to their seats, must wear their designated colors to ensure they are in the photo. l

Rout recalled: KU led 80-61 at halftime during that 150-95 win in 1989. “Worst butt-kicking ever,” UK’s Deron Feldhaus told the Lexington Herald-Leader. “If I remember correctly, it was a pretty entertaining halftime. I think (coach Rick Pitino) kicked out all the coaches and managers. Water coolers were turned over.”

When asked what made Pitino so mad, Feldhaus told the Herald-Leader, “I have no idea.”

“It’s Kentucky and Kansas. It’s going to be a hyped game. We’re finally starting to do some stuff (three wins in row and five of six). We’re finally starting to become a team that I’m like, ‘OK it looks like somebody I coach.’ But this will be one game, ‘All right, you got hit in the mouth, how are you doing?

“I shouldn’t get a technical in that situation but that was a huge momentum swing,” Duncan said.

“He called what he saw but obviously I wouldn’t get that animated if I didn’t feel pretty strongly about (it).”

The Firebirds, who were without sophomore guard Jaelyn Two Hearts, attempted 31 three-pointers versus 16 shots inside of the arc against Derby’s zone.

Driving lanes were closed, and the Panthers were willing to give up open looks from deep.

Free State trailed, 3528, when Piper swished a three-pointer with five seconds left in the third quarter. But Alford responded by drilling a shot just inside of half-court.

San Diego (ap) — Phil Mickelson had to leave the golf course to play one of his shots at Torrey Pines, an early sign of the mass exodus Friday in the Farmers Insurance Open.

By closing with three straight bogeys on the easier North Course, Mickelson missed the cut.

At least he was in good company.

Jason Day, the defending champion and No. 2 player in the world, missed the cut for the first time in nearly eight months. Also leaving early was Rickie Fowler, the No. 4 player in the world who was riding high from his victory five days ago in Abu Dhabi, Throw in Justin Rose (No. 7 in the world), and another gorgeous day

He had to make a 15- ing driver on the North Website: centerfornewsanddesign.com foot putt on the par-5 18th Course and making

enough short putts to move up the leaderboard.

Then came a shout of “Fore right!” and the crackle of a ball through a Torrey pine on the seventh hole. He had a tree right in front of him, no path to the green except through a V-gap in the tree about a foot wide.

Johnson managed, nearly made birdie and finished up his 66. He was at 8-under 136.

Scott Brown had a 71 on the South to join Billy Horschel (70 on the South) and Martin Laird (68 on the North) at 7-under 137.

The cut was at 1-under 143.

Mickelson never thought that would be an issue. He opened with a 69 on the South and was prepared to take advan-

tage of the short par 5s on the North. Instead, he sliced his second shot so badly on the par-5 18th (his ninth hole) that officials had to measure to make sure it was not outof-bounds. It was in play, by little more than the dimple of a golf ball, but it was under an iron fence.

Mickelson had to walk to the other side of the fence and punch at it with a hybrid into a bunker.

He blasted out and threeputted for double bogey.

Mickelson grew up in San Diego and has played Torrey Pines more than anyone. Asked if that was the first time he played from the parking lot, Mickelson replied, “Probably not.”

“After that good round yesterday on the South Course, I thought, ‘I’m

going to go to the North Course and really light it up.’ I think I tried to force the issue a little bit,” Mickelson said. “When I wasn’t under par early, I kind of started to press a little bit. But that stuff happens.”

He didn’t seem bothered, and neither did Day. The PGA champion got sick last Friday after a week in the desert working on his game and didn’t touch a club again until the opening round Thursday. He said his energy was gone, his swing felt off and it showed.

Day shot 74 on the South and missed the cut for the first time since the Memorial.

“You can’t live and die by one week,” Day said.

“It’s not going to be the last cut I’m going to miss.”

THE COACHES

Denver’s Gary Kubiak and Carolina’s Ron Rivera are both former players. Kubiak backed up Hall of Fame quarterback John Elway for nine seasons in Denver from 1983 to 1991. He returned to work for Elway, now the Broncos general manager, as the head coach this season. Rivera was a reserve linebacker on the vaunted ‘85 Bears. He spent his entire nine-year playing career in Chicago and is in his fifth season as head coach of the Panthers.

One quarterback in the twilight of his career, the other approaching his prime. They meet in the 50th edition of the Super Bowl.

THE QUARTERBACKS

Coldplay will headline the halftime performance with a special appearance by Beyonce. They recently collaborated on the band’s new album, “A Head Full of Dreams.” Katy Perry, who performed at last year’s Super Bowl, had the most-watched halftime show in history with 118 million viewers. Past halftime headliners include Bruno Mars, Prince, Madonna, Bruce Springsteen, U2 and the Rolling Stones.

Denver’s Peyton Manning is one of the greatest quarterbacks in NFL history.

He’s the only five-time NFL MVP as well as a one-time Super Bowl MVP and seven-time All-Pro who holds nearly all passing records. Cam Newton is a first-time All-Pro and the league’s most dynamic dual-threat quarter back. In only five seasons, he’s already tied Steve Young for the most career rushing touchdowns by a QB with 43.
