JENNIFER FREEMAN NAUERTC PLANS TO GO BEFORE LAWRENCE SCHOOL BOARD MEMBERS ON MONDAY to ask them to name the Lawrence High School football field or stadium after her late father, Bill Freeman, who coached the Lions to five state football championships from 1974 to 1989.

School board to hear proposal to name LHS field or stadium after famed coach

By Rochelle Valverde Twitter: @RochelleVerde

The daughter of legendary Lawrence High School coach Bill Freeman is hoping his name can become a permanent part of the foot-

ball field at the school.

Jennifer Freeman Nauertc will make a short presentation to the Lawrence school board at its meeting Monday to ask that either the stadium or the field be named after her late father.

Freeman, who died in De-

cember, led the Lions to five state football championships and two state track crowns during his 16-year tenure as head coach of both teams.

Freeman Nauertc, of LeRoy, said she has letters from Please see FIELD, page 2A

The city of Lawrence is getting sued over its denial of a proposed shopping center at the South Lawrence Trafficway and Iowa Street interchange.

A lawsuit by landowners and developers was filed Friday in Douglas County District Court alleging that the city used an “improper and illegal basis” for denying a proposed shopping center that would have added about 250,000 square feet of new retail space to the south Iowa Street corridor.

City commissioners on Jan. 5 voted 4-1 to deny rezoning and other planning approvals for the proposed KTen Crossing shopping center project, which was slated for about 60 acres of farm ground at the southeast corner of Iowa Street and the SLT interchange.

Commissioners cited concerns about whether the shopping center proposal was suitable for the area, which is just north of the Wakarusa River, and whether the city was prepared to grow south of the South Lawrence Trafficway, which is scheduled

University Daily Kansan editors sue top KU officials Lawsuit says funds were cut over student newspaper’s content

By Nikki Wentling Twitter: @nikkiwentling

Kansas University Chancellor Bernadette Gray-Little and another top KU official are being sued by current and former editors of The Univer-

sity Daily Kansan for allegedly allowing the student newspaper’s funding to be reduced on the basis of its content.

The suit filed Friday in U.S. District Court contends GrayLittle and Tammara Durham, KU’s vice provost for student

affairs, gave their approval to a KU Student Senate decision in 2015 to reduce the student fee allocated to the Kansan from $2 to $1 per student per semester, or approximately $45,000 per year.

The funding cut was a re-

She said naming the field or stadium for her father would pay tribute to the impact he made to athletics at the school, especially the football program.

“Dad walked into a program that really needed some help,” Freeman Nauertc said. “They didn’t have a great winning tradition, and, with his assistants, he helped turn the program around.”

Some of Freeman’s honors include his induction into the Kansas Sports Hall of Fame in 2014, as well as being named the recipient of the Kansas Sports Hall of Fame’s Pride of Kansas Award in 2012.

Díaz-Camacho and Katie Kutsko, who was the editor-in-chief when the editorial was published, are the plaintiffs in the lawsuit. Both Kutsko and Díaz-Camacho are seniors at KU. Kutsko is also currently an intern for Sunflower Publishing, which is owned by The World Company, the parent company of the Lawrence JournalWorld.

“My dad was the most humble guy; he didn’t like the limelight,” she said.

“And he probably wouldn’t want this, but I feel like he deserves it. He made a name for himself, he made a name for Lawrence High football and track.”

The naming effort isn’t the only one Freeman Nauertc is making to commemorate her father.

Freeman suffered from Alzheimer’s in the years before his death, and last week Freeman Nauertc made a presentation to the Kansas Legislature’s transportation committee in favor of a bill that would allow Kansans to purchase Alzheimer’s license plates. Freeman

Nauertc said the disease took a toll on her father’s final years.

“He missed out on my kids’ graduations, he missed out on sporting events, he missed out on everyday life,” Freeman Nauertc said, explaining the license plates would help spread awareness of the disease.

Freeman Nauertc said the bill will be considered by the Kansas House in a few weeks.

met with Student Senate leadership, with the chancellor, other university officials, with general counsel, and no one would acknowledge this was a First Amendment issue.”

The lawsuit states an annual budget review of the Kansan’s fees was used by student senators to “interrogate and punish Kansan leaders for unflattering coverage” and that it was brought up by senators at subsequent meetings.

When a Student Senate committee voted Feb. 27, 2015, to reduce funding, one Student Senate leader said it was because of the Kansan’s altered publication schedule.

The Kansan had previously published four days per week and was cutting back to a twoday-per-week printing schedule. Kansan leaders argued the newspaper needed to maintain its funding because the cut in published product meant less advertising revenue.

But another student senator said the May 2014

editorial was “repeatedly referenced with hostility” during deliberations, the lawsuit states. Another senator said in an interview with a Kansan reporter that the funding was cut partly because “some of the coverage had been really problematic in the past.”

According to the lawsuit, no other student organization had its funding reduced that year. The 50 percent cut to the Kansan’s funding caused the newspaper to eliminate 13 paid student positions, and the newspaper has been unable to fill the vacant position of its fulltime news adviser.

The Student Press Law Center, a college journalism advocacy group, and Mark Johnson — the chairman of the Kansan Board of Directors and an attorney — reached out to KU officials saying the content-based decision violated the First Amendment.

to be completed later this year.

The lawsuit — which was filed on behalf of property owners Armstrong Management, Grisham Management and the development group SLT, LLC — argues that was an improper reason for denial.

“Development and city infrastructure is already occurring south of the SLT,” the lawsuit, filed by the Kansas City law firm Polsinelli PC, reads. “Nevertheless, the City Commission’s supermajority selected an arbitrary and capricious reason for denying the applications: The city is not ready to cross over to the south side of the SLT.” An attempt to reach a city official for comment wasn’t immediately successful.

Other arguments made in the lawsuit include: l The proposed shopping center plans “generally comply” with Horizon 2020, the city’s comprehensive land use plan. That plan envisions auto-related commercial uses developing on at least a portion of the proposed shopping center site. The development group was seeking to develop a regional shopping center at the site, which would have included big-box stores, restaurants and other retailers. The city’s auto-related commercial designation would not have allowed big-box stores, but instead envisioned auto dealerships, hotels, fueling centers, or other such uses that attracted motorists off the highways that run by the site. City officials have contended the big-box retail shopping center would be significantly more intense than an auto-related commercial center. The lawsuit disputes that contention. l The plaintiffs allege the general public will be harmed by the city’s denial because the property is now likely to sit vacant or remain underutilized. “The public, because of the city’s action, has missed retail shopping opportunities, job opportunities (nearly 500), an opportunity for an attractive southern ‘gateway’ to the city, and missed sales and property tax opportunities,” the lawsuit reads. l The attorneys argue the city has placed the property in a “holding pattern” that is unfair to the property’s owners. The property was annexed into the city limits in 1979, and has been zoned for single-family residential use since that time. But the property has never developed in that fashion, and the lawsuit contends the city has never intended for the property to develop with single-family homes.

Attorneys for the city will have a chance to file an answer to the lawsuit in the coming weeks.

Representatives with North Carolina-based Collett development previously said Academy Sports, Old Navy, HomeGoods and several other retailers had either signed letters of intent or made other commitments to locate at the project.

A representative of the development group wasn’t available for comment on Friday afternoon, and an attempt to reach the plaintiff’s attorney also was unsuccessful.

U.S. needs president who can break the gridlock

By Dolph C. Simons Jr.

Appeals for voter and financial support by those seeking the U.S. presidency are bound to become more intense as the various state primary elections and the Nov. 8 general election draw near.

The time and money spent by these candidates on the justcompleted Iowa caucuses (really nothing more than holding a moist finger in the air to determine which way the wind is blowing) is almost obscene considering all of today’s pressing needs.

As in most election cycles, the name of the game seems to be who or which party can offer the most attractive freebies or subsidies to entice voter support. Ideas relative to effective government, fiscal soundness, national security, the environment, terrorism, immigration, etc., are discussed, but, in far too many cases, voters base their ballot decisions on which candidate appears to mirror their own wishes, rather than on what might be best for the country.

Almost 50 percent of this nation’s adult population relies on some form of government subsidy so, for those on either side

of the subsidy divide, it’s almost a matter of voting for or against Santa Claus (Uncle Sam) and the attractive goodies in his bag.

This situation is growing more contentious year by year, election by election.

Most presidential candidates try to present themselves as open to close cooperation with those in the other party. They promise to use bipartisan efforts to mend severe divisions in the U.S. House and Senate and increase cooperation between Congress and the White House. They pledge tough measures to reduce the nation’s debt, improve trade relations with other countries, combat terrorism and place Social Security on a sound fiscal footing.

It all sounds great, but once the election is over, it’s back to the same highly partisan, raw political warfare. Genuine legislative negotiation and compromise are little but a forgotten campaign promise.

Campaigns in Iowa, New Hampshire and soon in South Carolina and throughout the country focus on the idea “Washington is wrecked” and that the federal government produces a tremendous amount of lip service but no

meaningful action.

Based on the charges, countercharges and accusations among GOP candidates and the two Democratic candidates, along with claims of mismanagement, corruption, lies, etc., across party lines, is there really any justification to believe that once the election is over, everyone will apologize for what was said during the campaign and actually join hands to try to fix the Washington mess?

COMMENTARY Not likely. Just four more years of political gridlock.

Consider this possibility. It calls for many “ifs” and one giant “if,” but something needs to be done to correct a Washington situation that is deteriorating, debilitating and potentially deadly for our country.

What if Donald Trump, a true outsider who looks like he might have a chance of winning, would announce that, if he is elected, he would serve only one term. He would not move into the White House or, almost from the first day, mold his legislative actions to place

him in a favorable position to win a second term.

He would do and demand what is best for the country, not what is best for the Republican or Democratic parties.

He would call for changes that have been identified in the past but no one had the political courage to take action.

Such leadership might, just might, force leaders in both political parties to join the effort.

Certainly such actions would have the support, maybe even the enthusiastic support of the public. Something would be getting done in Washington, not just talk.

The big “if” in this is whether Trump would be able to swallow or set aside his ego. In his campaign, he talks about getting the nation’s best and brightest, regardless of party, to serve in critical government positions.

He says he would listen and pay attention to what senior and knowledgeable military and intelligence officers advise. Would he follow through on his nicesounding pledge?

Something has to be done. The current situation is not working for the benefit of the country and its citizens. The national debt cannot continue to rise

unchecked, more people need to have meaningful employment, and our national security is weak. There is far more negative than positive thinking and, as one extremely knowledgeable observer said, this country needs “some sunshine. There’s not a drop of sunshine among this year’s class of presidential candidates.”

Could an outsider such as Trump, as bombastic as he is and as infuriating as he is to some, be able to initiate actions and policies, with the help of nonpartisan advisers, that would create a new Washington image that would renew the public’s confidence in their government?

He is a borderline Republican and, compared to other current presidential hopefuls, carries less partisan political luggage. He’s not a Ted Cruz or Hillary Clinton.

As noted above, the one-term Trump possibility carries with it a lot of “ifs,” the biggest of which is Trump’s ego, but something needs to be done. Are there others who would pledge to serve only one term if elected, and would Trump agree to such a radical commitment?

Who or where is the true statesman?

Few lawmakers sign transparency pledge

By Peter Hancock Twitter: @LJWpqhancock

Topeka — Only a handful of Kansas’ 165 legislators have signed an initiative to promote openness and transparency in state government by taking what is being called the “transparency pledge,” but the list does include most Lawrence-area legislators.

The Open Kansas initiative was announced Jan. 27 by a coalition of advocacy groups, including Kansas Appleseed,

El Centro, Communities Creating Opportunity, Kansas Action for Children, and Kansas Association of Community Action Programs.

The pledge does not call for any specific legislation but asks lawmakers to support “public and transparent processes, timely and reasonable access to public information and increased public participation.”

Reps. John Wilson, DLawrence, and John Rubin, R-Shawnee, were the

first two lawmakers to sign the pledge at a Statehouse news conference Jan. 27.

Since then, Rep. Boog Highberger, D-Lawrence, and Sens. Marci Francisco, D-Lawrence, and Tom Holland, D-Baldwin City, have signed on. But according to the group’s website, only eight others have signed the pledge as well. They include: l Sen. Anthony Hensley, D-Topeka l Sen. Tom Hawk, DManhattan

l Sen. Laura Kelly, DTopeka l Rep. Dennis Hedke, R-Wichita l Rep. Will Carpenter, R-El Dorado l Sen. David Haley, DKansas City l Rep. Ben Scott, DTopeka l Rep. Gail Finney, DWichita l Rep. Barbara Bollier, R-Mission Hills

here’s a good deal of policy and discussion about how to recruit doctors to smaller communities in the state.

It was demonstrated how fortunate Baldwin City is in that regard when Dr. Cristina Goodwin started at the Baldwin Medical Clinic just two weeks after the departure of Dr. Dara Lowe.

Goodwin said local ties played a role in her difficult decision to leave an established practice in Larned to relocate to Baldwin City.

“I went to school at Mid-America Nazarene, Kansas University and the KU Med Center,” she said.

“I knew the area. It felt like I was coming home.”

Goodwin practiced at Larned the past six years as part of one of those rural recruitment programs, the National Health Service Corps. Her obligations to the program were filled a year ago, freeing her to look at other opportunities.

She jumped at the opportunity that Ransom Memorial Hospital in Ottawa offered at the Baldwin Medical Clinic in part because of the work Lowe

did in the past four-plus years building the clinic’s client base. Lowe left the clinic Dec. 22 to join her husband, former Baldwin City Administrator Chris Lowe, in Monument, Colo.

“She did a fantastic job,” Goodwin said. “I’m hoping to continue and build on that growth and care.”

Making the move to Baldwin City with Goodwin are her husband, Darin, and the couple’s four children, ages 4 to 11.

Her husband is a “jack of all trades,” who does carpentry and woodworking and is also an emergency medical technician. He is looking to become an EMT locally, she said.

D-Dub’s Bar in Eudora is taking advantage of the closing of Anthony’s Diner to expand. Darick Willis, co-owner of D-Dub’s with Travis Turner, said the bar that opened at 10 W.

was serving time in the Douglas County Jail with work-release privileges.

Officers confirmed with the jail that the suspect was temporarily released that morning for “job search,” the affidavit says.

On Dec. 15, the next day, the victim called police once more, telling them she saw the suspect’s vehicle driving southbound along Emery Road, near where she saw him the day before, the affidavit says. The suspect did not expose himself the second day.

Approximately five minutes later an officer stopped the suspect just west of Tennessee Street, the affidavit says. Another officer drove the woman to the scene, where she identified the man as

the suspect.

The suspect was then taken to the Investigations and Training Center, 4820 Bob Billings Parkway, for an interview and was returned to the jail shortly after, the affidavit says. A single charge of lewd and lascivious behavior was officially filed against him on Jan. 22.

In the fall of 2015 the man pleaded no contest to two counts of lewd and lascivious behavior. He was sentenced to serve one year in the Douglas County Jail with authorized work release. He was also ordered to register as a sex offender for the rest of his life.

The suspect remains in the Douglas County Jail.

Lawrence Police Sgt. Trent McKinley said in

an email that this type of crime often goes unreported.

“Some (victims) don’t want to take the time required to make a police report, others don’t want to participate in the court process or potentially face the suspect in court, and some individuals don’t feel a crime rises to the level of needing police involvement,” he wrote.

Police have seen lewd and lascivious behavior in a wide range of settings, McKinley wrote.

The best thing a victim can do is to call the police and provide as many specific details about the incident as possible.

Auctioneer adds zest to Chocolate Auction

By Elvyn Jones Twitter: @ElvynJ

Lester Edgecomb leads a double life.

Monday through Friday, Edgecomb spends a great deal of his time alone, delivering mail on his rural route near Baldwin City. On weekends, he is often the center of attention, driving up the bids at one of the 25 to 30 auctions he and wife Carolyn, son Mark Edgecomb and friend Wendell Taul do each year as Edgecomb Auction Services.

Edgecomb’s two lives do intersect on the back roads of his mail route.

“I practice my chants every day,” he said.

“Driving down the road mile after mile, I auction anything and everything.

I sell anything that pops in my head. It’s like one guy said, ‘if you’re not gaining, you are losing ground.’”

It was behind the wheel of another vehicle in southwest Douglas County that a 16-yearold Edgecomb first began developing his auction voice.

“It all started when I was in the field on a John Deere,” he said. “I’d auction the tractor I was driving and the equipment I was pulling. I’d auction the tool box and the tools in it. When I got done with that, I’d look around for something else to sell.”

On his mail route this past week, Edgecomb may have practiced auctioning art and chocolate sweets as he prepares for his regular gig as auctioneer of the Lumberyard Arts Center’s annual Chocolate Auction on Sunday.

“I’ve been doing it for 10 years or more — I forget when I started,” he said. “I get to see people and have fun. It’s a crowd you can have all kinds of fun with, and they laugh right back with you. You can harass them and do what you want. At a regular auction, people might take offense.”

Longtime Lumberyard Arts Center board member Sandy Cardens said although she, too, couldn’t recall what year Edgecomb started, she did remember he made an immediate difference in the annual fundraiser.

“We made significantly more money when he started,” she said. “I would give him all the credit.” Edgecomb’s style makes him a star of the fundraiser as he establishes rivalries among bidders, chides husbands or wives for neglecting spouses before Valentine’s Day and sometimes adds his own little tax to a bid, Cardens said.

EMMA BAILEY LOOKS OVER SOME OF THE SWEETS and art up for bid at the Baldwin City chocolate auction in February 2015 at the Lumberyard Arts Center.

Chocolate Auction returns The annual Chocolate Auction is returning Sunday to Baldwin City’s Lumberyard Arts Center.

Connie Deel, chocolate auction event chair, said the arts center, 718 High St., will open at noon Sunday for the Chocolate Auction so that those looking for the ideal Valentine’s Day gift can view what is available at the silent auction.

Again this year, there will be a children’s table of silent auction items.

Bidding on silent and children’s auction items will start at 12:30 p.m.

The live auction of donated art and sweets will start at 2 p.m., Deel said.

Arts center board member Sandy Cardens said most of the chocolate cookies, cakes, pies, pastries and candies won’t be donated until the last days before the “He always picks on me, and says I bid more than I do,” she said. “He makes it fun for everyone. The thing I like is all he asks is that we give a donation to St. Jude’s Children’s Hospital, which we do every year in his name.”

He has been doing the event long enough to know what items will bring top dollar, such as the chocolate pies Mary Jane Chubb makes each year or last year’s litho-

event, but there are already a good deal of art pieces for auction.

“We have quite a few art things,” she said. “We have paintings, ceramic work, photographs and prints.

We have something from Walt Bailey (former head of the Baker University Art Department). We do have some candy.”

The arts center will be open for donations from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday, and from 10 a.m. to noon on Sunday, which is convenient for those donating treats fresh from the oven, Cardens said.

Proceeds from the auction will help fund the scholarship the arts center gives annually to a graduating Baldwin High School senior and ongoing programing at the Lumberyard, she said.

“It’s fun to sell a pie for $100 to $125,” Edgecomb said. “It has kind of went away from the chocolate and went more to art, which is OK. We’ve lost some of the people who did the chocolates.

It would be nice if new people would step up to

replace them.”

Edgecomb decided to fulfill his childhood dream of becoming an auctioneer in 1983 when local auctioneer Claude Myers died. He started working in the business and went to a Kansas City auctioneering school.

“I was doing auctions before I went to school,” he said. “They teach you some things there, but if you can’t chant before you go to school, you won’t learn how in two weeks of classes.”

Before cutting back in recent years, he was busy nearly every weekend, working mostly within a 40- to 50-mile radius of Baldwin City.

The appeal of auctioneering is helping people through the power of competition, Edgecomb said.

“It’s a good feeling to help people get out of trouble,” he said. “I’ve had people who were in a real pinch, who got back on their feet. If you get people there for an auction and it gets competitive, you’ll make more money every time.”

The auctions that really excite Edgecomb are those he does for nonprofits. Among the charity events he works are the Mennonite Relief Sale at the State Fairgrounds in Hutchinson and a Topeka auction to benefit domestic violence shelters statewide. The Mennonite sale, which will be April 8-9, raised $530,000 last year.

“We try to do as many charity auctions a year as we possibly can,” he said.

“It takes driving some miles, but it gives you a good feeling when you’re done.

When having helped raise $80,000 for battered women and children — more than anybody thought they’d be able to raise — it makes you feel wonderful.”

Scouts’ handcrafted planetarium up at library

targazers, particularly those of the small variety, should appreciate the latest addition to the Lawrence Public Library’s atrium.

In honor of the library’s space-themed Read Across Lawrence teen series, which blasted off earlier this week, a pair of local Boy Scout troops have built a miniature planetarium out of cardboard and binder clips, now open to astronomical enthusiasts of all ages at the library.

The whole thing fits up to six adults comfortably, says teen librarian Miriam Wallen. Plenty more if we’re talking about little kids.

“Overall, it’s been really enjoyed,” Wallen says. “Some people go in for a bit and take a quick glance at the stars, and some people stay for a

‘Manson’ more MTV than murder Lifetime clings to its obsession with women stuck in basements or crazy cults. But don’t go looking for deep psychological insight in “Manson’s Lost Girls” (7 p.m.). This is a 1960s flashback complete with tie-dyed outfits and a period soundtrack.

“Lost Girls” begins with news reports about the 1969 cult murders of actress Sharon Tate and her entourage and flashes back to a teenage runaway-turneds i n g l e m o m (MacKenzie Mauzy) who lands at Charles M a n son’s (Jeff Ward) commune at an old Western movie set called the Spahn Ranch, some years before the grim events.

Everything’s groovy and everyone looks trim, fit and healthy. Look for a lot of beach parties and picnics that would not be out of place in a soft drink commercial. Even Manson, a man described here as having spent most of his time in prison, looks more like a handsome assistant professor than a paranoid cult leader.

Separated from anything resembling historical context, “Lost Girls” unfolds as one music video after another. Watching the dark Svengali getting mellow to the sounds of The Turtles’ bubblegum hit “Happy Together” almost seems like a spoof or an outtake from an “Austin Powers” movie. Or both.

O Recently screened at the Sundance Film Festival, the documentary “Jim: The James Foley Story” (8 p.m., HBO) profiles the photojournalist kidnapped in Syria who went missing for two years before his gruesome execution was disseminated as ISIS propaganda.

O With the New Hampshire primary just three days off, ABC News hosts a Republican debate (7 p.m.) moderated by David Muir and Martha Raddatz.

O Kevin Frazier hosts “Super Bowl’s Greatest Commercials All-Star Countdown” (7 p.m., CBS), a survey of the top ads of the past 50 years. This is at least the third such clip show of the week and the last we’ll have to endure until Super Bowl 51.

Conservatism beats Trump in Iowa Washington — The reigning idiocy of the current political season is the incessant tossing around of “establishment,” an epithet now descending into meaninglessness. Its most recent abuse is by Donald Trump supporters rationalizing his Iowa defeat with the following consolation: If you tally up Trump and Ted Cruz (and throw in Ben Carson), a whopping 60 percent of the vote is anti-establishment!

So what? The threat to the GOP posed by the Trump insurgency is not that he’s antiestablishment. It’s that he’s not conservative. Trump winning the nomination would convulse the Republican Party, fracture the conservative movement and undermine the GOP’s identity and role as the country’s conservative party.

There’s nothing wrong with challenging the so-called establishment. Parties, like other institutions, can grow fat and soft and corrupt. If, by establishment, you mean the careerists, the lobbyists and the sold-out cynics, a good poke, even a major purge, is well-deserved.

That’s not the problem with Trump. The problem is his, shall we say, eclectic populism.

Cruz may be anti-establishment but he’s a principled conservative, while Trump has no coherent political philosophy, no core beliefs, at all. Trump offers barstool eruptions and whatever contradictory “idea” pops into his head at the time, such as “humane” mass deportation, followed by mass am-

“

nesty when the immigrants are returned to the United States.

That’s the reason his harebrained ideas — barring all Muslims from entering the country, a 45 percent tariff on Chinese goods, government-provided universal health care through “a deal with existing hospitals to take care of people” (why didn’t I think of that?) — have received such relatively little scrutiny. No one takes them seriously. His actual platform is all persona — the wonders that will emanate from his own self-proclaimed strength, toughness, brilliance, money, his very yugeness.

Trump’s is faith-based politics of the Latin American caudillo variety. “At the (Sarah) Palin rally,” reports John McCormack of The Weekly Standard, “Trump promised

he would localize education.

‘How?’ shouted one man in the crowd. ‘Just you watch,’ Trump replied.” Meaning: I have no idea. Just trust me.

Cruz does not lack for selfconfidence. And he constantly wraps himself in anti-establishment rhetoric. He reasonably calculates that his hard-edged conservatism sells best when presented not as pristine ideology but as a revolt against entrenched interests.

To imagine, however, that his railing against “the Washington cartel” makes him a Trumpian brother-in-arms is to mistake tactics for strategy, style for substance. To be sure, it’s a misperception Cruz himself encouraged throughout 2015 as he drafted in Trump’s wake.

But that’s yesterday’s story. It’s been over for weeks.

The story since January is of a bromance blown up, clearing away the anti-establishment veneer and allowing their fundamental political differences to finally emerge: l Over Trump’s “New York (read: liberal) values.” l Over government power.

Cruz’s most biting commercial showed Trump enlisting government to tear down the home of a little old lady standing in the way of a casino parking lot. l Over ethanol, which Cruz opposed on classic small-government grounds that the state should not be picking winners and losers, and which Trump supported because “it happens to be a lot of jobs for Iowa.”

The Iowa results clarified

the dynamic of the Republican race. There are only three candidates in the race and, as I argued last week, each represents a different politics. The result is a three-way fight between Trump’s personalized strongman populism and two flavors of conservatism — Marco Rubio’s more mainstream version and Cruz’s more uncompromising take-no-prisoners version.

We can now read the Iowa results as they affect the Republican future. Trumpian populism got 24 percent, conservatism (Rubio plus Cruz) got 51 percent.

There will be a spirited contest between the two conservatives over who has the better chance of winning the general election and of governing effectively. But whatever the piques and preferences of various “establishment” party leaders, there’s no denying that either Rubio or Cruz would retain the GOP’s fundamental ideological identity. Trump would not.

Getting thumped in Iowa does not mean that Trump is done. He’s on favorable ground in New Hampshire and leads in practically every other state.

But he’s in for a long fight.

What Iowa confirms is that whatever beating the “establishment” takes during this campaign, Republicans are choosing conservatism over Trumpian populism by 2 to 1.

Which means their chances of survival as the party of Reagan are very good.

PUBLIC FORUM

No-call strategy To the editor: Back in the day, how did my late buddy, Jack, get telemarketers off his back? So that they would never call again, especially during dinner?

He asked, “What’s your home phone number?” Pause. “What do you want that for, sir?” “So that I can call you at home and bug you, just like you’re bugging me now.” Slam!

This was before the days of random and multiple robo calls from outfits like the one directing my wife and me to call about a possible credit problem. We were to press 1 if we wanted off the call list, 3 to speak to a person. So, day after day, we pressed 1. But for months the calls kept coming. Our moods soured accordingly.

Desperate, I turned to the Kansas attorney general’s website. The site said this type of call was in violation of the Kansas No-Call Act. Then I studied our directory of the latest 50 calls. Which unnamed company had used multiple numbers, times, dates, and calling locations? Then I called those numbers. In each case, I got the same recorded announcement from the familiar recorded voice that had called us for the last few months: “If you want off our call list, press 1.” So I did. Haven’t had a call since from this telemarketer.

My wife and I now have more quiet and privacy, enough to think I hear Jack proclaiming, “Craiger, I’m proud of you.”

Craig Chappell, Lawrence

Frightening thought To the editor: I got a laugh out of Stephen Ware’s comments that the current Kansas judicial selection system is “undemocratic, extreme and secretive” and that “(i)n a democracy, everybody’s vote ought to be worth the same.” (Journal-World, Feb. 4).

Tell you what, Mr. Ware, the next time you go into the hospital for brain surgery, we’ll let the managers of the concessions shops in the lobby vote on which doctor you’ll get.

I, too, am an attorney, and although I’m not particularly proud of it, neither am I ashamed of it. It’s a job that requires specialized training and

knowledge, just like most others. I don’t know anything about plumbing and I would guess most plumbers don’t know much about the legal system. And that’s fine. We rely on the other’s specialized skills.

Do you really want a one-issue right-wing ideologue like Sam Brownback to have the power to choose our Supreme Court justices? The thought frightens me.

Richard L. Warrick, Lawrence

Sad state of affairs To the editor: I became an avid newspaper reader in 1939 and have maintained that practice into my eighth decade. In all that time, through wars and depression, I have never been as concerned about our political system. From the deadlock in Washington to the would-be oligarchs in Topeka, I believe our democracy is threatened. I will limit this letter to two immediate concerns.

Our education system is under attack. In our state, the teaching profession has been decimated by the failure to fund schools and the removal of teacher rights. As a retired teacher at Lawrence High School, I am concerned about the exodus of good teachers and the quality of education for ALL our youth. Democracy is dependent on an educated and informed electorate.

After retiring, I secured a position as a bailiff in the district court. In 23 years, I worked for a number of judges, some still on the bench and some retired.

Every one of them, in my opinion, was well-qualified and fair-minded. Training to correctly interpret and apply the law is a long and difficult process. Our current administration would change a fair method of selecting judges to make it political. It appears to be a clear violation of the separation of the powers of our government.

So what next? Shall we build a wall From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World around Kansas to prevent a mass exit for Feb. 6, 1916: “Three persons from Lincoln, of teachers, judges and our youth?

FIRST TAKE JOBS REPORT

Disappointing growth masks positive signs Mixed signals could dissuade Fed from raising interest rates in March Paul Davidson USA TODAY

A disappointing employment report — just 151,000 jobs were added in January — was so chockfull of encouraging signs and mitigating factors that economists say it likely doesn’t portend a weakening labor market.

Yet analysts say there are enough mixed signals in the monthly survey to help lead the Federal Reserve to pause again in March as it considers another interest-rate hike after lifting its

benchmark rate in December for the first time in almost a decade.

The Fed’s policymaking committee “will likely desire to see further evidence,” Michael Gapen, chief U.S. economist of Barclays, wrote in a note to clients.

The 151,000 job gains marked a substantial slowdown from the average 279,000 monthly additions recorded in the fourth quarter. Those totals are from a survey of business and government establishments that feed Note are seasonally adjusted into Numbers the headline job tally.

But a separate survey of households indicated employment in-

creased by an eye-popping 615,000. Even after adjusting for revised annual estimates of the U.S. population, the ranks of workers increased by 409,000, according to Capital Economics.

That caused the jobless rate to fall to 4.9% from 5%. The establishment survey is deemed a more reliable measure of employment, but the two surveys tend to converge over time, and it’s not always clear which is a better gauge in any month.

Another encouraging signal is that average hourly earnings jumped 12 cents and were up 2.5% the past year. Tepid wage growth of 2% or just above it has been the biggest source of frustration in the jobs recovery. But employers finally appear to be

raising pay more rapidly to attract workers in a tighter market.

Meanwhile, there were plenty of excuses for the sluggish payroll gains in the establishment survey.

Unusually warm weather inflated job growth late last year, so some payback in January was expected.

And while the big Northeast snowstorm hit after the Labor Department conducted its surveys, harsh weather still kept many workers home. The number of Americans who didn’t work because of bad weather increased by 144,000, notes Jim O’Sullivan, chief US economist of High Frequency Economics.

Job growth in services sectors slowed, raising concerns the global troubles afflicting manufacturers may be spreading.

WASHINGTON By siding with the Supreme Court’s liberal wing on two major cases last week, Chief Justice John Roberts lent credence to conservatives’ concerns that they can’t count on his vote.

But as he moves into his second decade as the nation’s 17th chief justice, Roberts is proving to be strikingly consistent in one area that conservatives applaud.

He wants to close the courthouse doors to challengers with tenuous

legal grounds or claims, thereby limiting the role of the judicial branch he leads.

That desire has been on display regularly during the first half of the high court’s 2015 term, both in rulings Roberts joined and in those he opposed. At nearly every opportunity, he voted to limit plaintiffs’ access — demanding they prove being harmed and opt for arbitration over litigation.

The chief justice wrote the court’s first decision of the term, ruling Dec. 1 that a California woman had no right to sue the Austrian national railroad in a

Twitter says it has shut down 125,000 ISIL-related accounts Jessica Guynn and Elizabeth Weise USA TODAY

Twitter has suspended 125,000 accounts connected to the Islamic State over the past six months, the company said Friday.

Twitter said it has expanded its team to comb through suspect accounts and to root out automated accounts that publish extremist views to react more swiftly to terrorist content on the service.

SAN FRANCISCO

“We also look into other accounts similar to those reported and leverage proprietary spamfighting tools to surface other potentially violating accounts for review by our agents,” the company said in a blog post. “We have already seen results, including an increase in account suspensions and this type of activity shifting off of Twitter.”

Twitter has been heavily criticized for not more effectively policing the presence of the extremist group. Pressure has heated up from the Obama ad-

ministration and presidential candidates in the wake of the terrorist attacks in Paris and in San Bernardino County. The Islamic State — also known as ISIL or ISIS — use popular Internet services such as Twitter and Facebook to spread propaganda and to attract and train new recruits.

Twitter says it does not permit tweets that promote terrorism or make violent threats. It relies on users to alert the company about violations to its policies.

U.N. panel: WikiLeaks’ Assange ‘arbitrarily detained’ U.K. will continue fight to have him sent to Sweden to face charge in rape case

Jane Onyanga-Omara USA TODAY

LONDON The United Nations ruled Friday that WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange has been “arbitrarily detained” by the United Kingdom and Sweden since he was arrested in 2010 and that he should be allowed to leave Ecuador’s Embassy in London without facing arrest.

In a statement, the U.N.’s Working Group on Arbitrary Detention, called on both countries “to end Mr. Assange’s deprivation of liberty, respect his physical integrity and freedom of movement, and afford him the right to compensation.”

It said Assange’s detention in a London prison, his subsequent house arrest and “confinement” at the embassy were “disproportionate” reactions.

Assange has been holed up at the embassy since June 2012. If

he steps outside, British police said he would immediately be arrested and face extradition to Sweden and the United States.

Sweden is seeking his extradition because Assange is accused of being involved in a rape case, an allegation he denies. He has not been formally charged.

Assange had faced three other sexual assault charges there, but they expired in August because of the statute of limitations. The U.S. Justice Department said it is considering charging Assange with espionage related to WikiLeaks’ publication of thousands of diplomatic letters.

He told a news conference in London by video link that the U.N. panel’s findings proved that he had been unlawfully detained.

Later, addressing media from an embassy balcony, he said that the British and Swedish governments had deprived his children of their father for over five years.

He said the ruling was a “vic-

tory” for his cause.

The British and Swedish governments maintain the ruling from the U.N. is not legally binding, but the U.N. says the organization’s conclusions “are legally binding to the extent that they are based on binding international human rights law.”

A statement from Sweden said, “Swedish authorities have no control over his decision to stay

1 DEAD, 3 INJURED IN NYC CRANE COLLAPSE

Massive construction machinery tumbles onto street in lower Manhattan during morning rush Kevin McCoy and Doug Stanglin USA TODAY

NEW YORK A pedestrian was killed and three people were injured Friday when a huge construction crane collapsed in lower Manhattan as workers were trying to lower and secure it against rising winds, Mayor Bill de Blasio said.

Pronounced dead at the scene was 38-year-old David Wichs, of Manhattan’s Upper West Side, the New York City Police Department said.

The injured, whose names were not immediately released, were hit by falling debris, authorities said. Two were listed in serious condition.

The mayor initially said the person killed had been sitting in a car, but the police later said he had been walking near a car.

The Daily News reported that one of the injured, Thomas O’Brien, 73, was in the nearby car waiting for his daughter when the heavy metal crushed much of the vehicle. O’Brien received a head laceration.

The crane, with a 565-foot boom that stretched roughly as long as a city block, plummeted around 8:24 a.m. ET near 40 Worth Street in the TriBeCa neighborhood, the New York City Fire Department said.

Jesse Natale, a 26-year-old civil engineer from Westfield, N.J., told the Daily News he was waiting at a traffic light at the site when the crane came down.

“If I caught that light, I’d be dead probably,” he said.

Twisted red-colored metal from the plunging boom smashed into parked cars, and debris littered streets and sidewalks. More than 100 firefighters and emergency personnel and more than 30 firetrucks and other equipment responded to the scene.

City officials said utility workers were taking gas readings in the area and making plans to excavate and cap a low-pressure gas main in the wake of the collapse.

De Blasio said construction work was halted on the building Thursday after operators decided to lower and secure the crane against winds, which gusted past 20 mph Friday morning.

“They were in the process of

One witness said Friday’s crane collapse “looked like an avalanche — or that the roof was caving in from the snow.” securing the crane ... actually preparing to bring it down, to secure it,” he said.

De Blasio said there likely would have been more victims if workmen hadn’t already cleared the area of traffic and people to prepare for lowering the crane.

Glenn Zito, who was working on the upper floors of a building across the street, captured the crane’s collapse in a dramatic

video. Zito and two other workers were asked to come down from the upper floors because of the wind and were making their way down when they stopped to watch the crane being lowered.

It was the city’s first major crane collapse since 2008.

there. Mr. Assange is free to leave the Embassy at any point.”

The U.K. said it will formally contest the panel’s decision.

“This changes nothing. We completely reject any claim that Julian Assange is a victim of arbitrary detention,” the British government said in a statement.

“An allegation of rape is still outstanding ... so the U.K. continues to have a legal obligation to extradite him to Sweden,” it said.

Duncan French, a professor of international law at the University of Lincoln in England, said a the ruling was only recommendation.

“My main concern is that it (the decision) dilutes much more genuine cases of arbitrary detention where the state really is locking people up and throwing away the key. For me, this is an unfortunate engagement by the U.N. system — it’s something that should be dealt with by the normal legal process,” he said.

been as much hindrance as help in a year in which anti-establishment politics are all the rage.

“I would say take a chill pill, let the democracy work, let people go see who the candidates are, what their record is, what detailed plans they have,” Bush told NBC News. “We got a long way to go.”

Timothy J. Naftali, a biographer of President George H.W. Bush, said Jeb’s campaign problems probably don’t reflect dislike of the Bush family so much as dislike for the so-called Republican “establishment.” Few things say Republican establishment more than the name “Bush.”

“This is a very bad time for a Bush to be running,” Naftali said.

At this stage of the campaign, Bush is highlighting his family’s connections, including Thursday’s appearance by Barbara Bush at West Running Brook Middle School in Derry, N.H. Voters chuckled as Jeb Bush joked about his mother’s sometimesstern ways, and smiled as the former first lady appeared to snap pictures of the presidential hopeful on a pink iPhone.

“I wore my pearls in her honor,” said Mary Darby-Bencivenga, 53, a real estate appraiser from Hooksett, N.H. “I just thought it was so cute how she’s still a cheerleader for her son.”

Another relative, former president George W. Bush, has cut an ad for his brother’s super PAC. In addition, Jeb Bush has said the ex-president plans to campaign for him ahead of the Feb. 20 South Carolina primary, a sign he plans to press on regardless of what happens Tuesday in New Hampshire.

As he has at many campaign stops over the past year, Bush told the crowd in Derry he loves his father and his brother, but he is his own person with his own views of how the presidency should be conducted.

Whether the name has been much of an asset is open to debate.

For the past year, Republican voters across the country — from New Hampshire to South Carolina to Florida — have said they cannot support the idea of putting a “third Bush” in the White House in the last 30 years.

In addition, one of the Republican candidates who is running against the so-called establishment — Donald Trump — did Bush incalculable damage by labeling him the “low energy”

candidate.

“He was ‘Trumped’ more than any other candidate in this race,” said historian John Robert Greene, who wrote a book on the George H.W. Bush presidency and is at work on another one about George W. Bush’s two terms in the White House.

New Hampshire residents who saw Jeb and Barbara Bush in Derry said they were impressed with the candidate. He should be judged on his own merits, they said, though some voters seem predisposed to oppose him.

JACQUELYN MARTIN, AP

Barbara Bush jokes with her son Jeb while introducing him at a town hall meeting in Derry, N.H., on Wednesday.

“I think a lot of people are holding it against him even before they listen to him,” said Katelynn Freeman, 26, a nursing student from Derry.

Ernie Bencivenga, 56, Mary’s husband and an electrical engineer from Hookset, said Trump, Ted Cruz, and their supporters have labeled Bush “as part of the establishment, and that’s what people are revolting against.”

If Jeb Bush pulls off a comeback, the family’s history book will grow. Even if he goes down, historians like Greene said it likely won’t affect the legacies of the two presidents Bush.

There are also signs that the Bush saga will go on one way or another, as attention shifts to members of the up-and-coming generation, such as Texas Land Commissioner George P. Bush, one of Jeb’s sons.

And a loss wouldn’t necessarily end Jeb Bush’s career, with the prospect of becoming a running mate or Cabinet secretary still at least a possibility.

“He brings a lot of money to the table,” Greene said. “He brings a lot of gravitas to the table.”

cause a federal law favoring arbitration trumps state law.

Roberts closed out the month in his year-end report Dec. 31 by lauding federal rules changes aimed at cutting down on frivolous lawsuits and dilatory practices that delay justice. In essence, he called for a leaner, meaner federal bench and bar.

“We must engineer a change in our legal culture that places a premium on the public’s interest in speedy, fair and efficient justice,” Roberts said.

More malleable on other issues, to the consternation of conservatives, Roberts has been a stickler on court access his entire career.

Over the years, the chief justice has consistently voted to close the courthouse doors on claims and claimants he judged dubious — and not only when it benefited the conservative cause. His refusal in 2013 to let opponents of gay marriage in California represent the state in a lawsuit brought by gay and lesbian couples brought same-sex marriage to the state.

In a report on Roberts’ first decade as chief justice, the liberal

Constitutional Accountability Center found him uniformly stingy on standing and generous on forced arbitration.

Roberts’ preferences and his court’s precedents are starting to filter down to lower federal courts. In the year ending Sept.

30, the number of federal appellate, district and bankruptcy cases all declined, following a trend begun several years ago.

To liberals, the trend is ominous. Brian Wolfman, co-director of the Supreme Court litigation clinic at Stanford Law School and former director of Public Citizen

“We must engineer a change in our legal culture that places a premium on the public’s interest in speedy, fair and efficient justice.”

Chief Justice John Roberts

Litigation Group, says the trend from class-action lawsuits toward arbitration penalizes consumers and workers who cannot afford to sue on their own.

Conservatives say Roberts isn’t picking winners and losers. They see his goal as cajoling courts to play a more limited role, like that of an umpire at a baseball game — a favorite Roberts analogy.

“The chief justice, in particular, and the majority on the court are suspicious of using the courts as a way of addressing larger questions of social or economic policy,” says Jonathan Adler, a professor at Case Western Reserve University School of Law. “The chief does not want the court to be at the center of highprofile, high-consequence fights.”

Feds to study health benefits of social services Keeping people well by solving their other problems will save money, improve life Jayne O’Donnell USA TODAY

The Obama administration is working to build evidence supporting increased federal and state spending on anti-violence, social service and other programs to improve life in poor neighborhoods and limit the growth in health care costs.

The move is designed to create a paper trail that makes the need for and efficacy of the programs for Medicare and Medicaid recipients indisputable by showing the cost savings.

In the next step in the Affordable Care Act, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services will spend nearly $160 million in grants to community groups, health care providers or other BALTIMORE

public or private entities that will screen patients for unmet social needs and link them with services that help with housing, hunger, interpersonal violence and other social ills.

The agency will then study whether this access improves health and lowers costs. International data show the United States spends far more on health care and far less on social services than other developed countries that have far healthier citizens.

Numerous studies have shown how stable housing and other social supports keep people out of the hospital, while efforts to combat inner-city violence sharply reduce gun-related homicides.

The research was inspired in part by Yale public health professor Elizabeth Bradley and her 2013 book, The American Health

YALE UNIVERSITY

Yale public health professor Elizabeth Bradley, right, is studying how states’ social services spending relates to better overall health.

Care Paradox, which analyzed global health care and determined that higher social service spending led to better overall health. Her new report compares states’ social service spending

with health status and will appear in an upcoming issue of Health Affairs.

CMS’ challenge, she says, “comes down to politics.”

“It does require a shift in a very large industry in the U.S. — the health care industry,” which is a powerful lobbying force in Washington, Bradley says.

The public’s attention on health care lately has been on insurance enrollment and political battles over costs.

“It’s not that people don’t agree that (social services are) important and it’s not that they don’t care, but we haven’t adequately made the case that it saves money and has value,” says Darshak Sanghavi, a physician who heads population and preventive health at CMS’ innovation center.

Despite the ACA’s push to reward hospitals and doctors for improving people’s overall health — or penalize them if they don’t — there’s still no clear way for the

government to pay them for improving people’s often-traumatic lives. Nearly 18 million people have gained health coverage under the ACA, but many still can’t pay for their drugs, transportation to their appointments or nutritious food that can help keep them healthy.

Unlike in other countries, social services are thought of as charity for the poor, while health coverage is for the middle class.

It’s “part of our American values,” Bradley says.

A report out Wednesday by the Prevention Institute calls for far more focus on the “traumaplagued communities” that result when these social ills including violence, hunger and homelessness are ignored. Exposure to violence alone gives the United States one of the highest rates of trauma-related mental illness in the world, says the report, funded

by Kaiser Permanente of Northern California.

FACT CHECK: THE FIFTH DEMOCRATIC DEBATE Eugene Kiely, Brooks Jackson, Lori Robertson, Robert Farley, D’Angelo Gore and Vanessa Schipani l FactCheck.org

We found several false and misleading claims in the debate between former secretary of State Hillary Clinton and Sen. Bernie Sanders. Thursday’s debate, held in Durham, N.H., was hosted by MSNBC a few days ahead of Tuesday’s New Hampshire primary. uSanders claimed Clinton called Barack Obama “naive” in 2007 because he “thought it was a good idea to talk to our enemies.” That lacks context. Clinton objected not to meeting with enemies, but to Obama’s statement that he would do so without preconditions. uSanders claimed that NAFTA and other trade deals have cost “millions” of U.S. jobs, but independent economists have said the impact on the economy was small. uClinton revised history in discussing her opposition to the Trans-Pacific Partnership. She supported the trade deal as secretary of State. uSanders mixed and matched two different sets of data to claim that “millions of Americans … are working longer hours for low wages.” uSanders said his campaign “did not suggest that we had the endorsement” of the Nashua Telegraph in a new TV ad running in New Hampshire. In fact, the ad leaves that false impression. uClinton said “the Wall Street guys are trying so

hard to stop me.” But Clinton and PACs that support her have raised millions from Wall Street interests. uSanders said his campaign could better deliver a large voter turnout, the key to a Democrat winning the White House in November. But statistics on voter turnout in presidential elections don’t show such a clear partisan trend. uSanders wrongly claimed that “not one Republican has the guts to recognize that climate change is real.”

Two of the Republican presidential candidates, not to mention more Republicans in Congress, have said climate change is real and humans contribute to it. uWhile discussing the Trans Pacific Partnership, Sanders ascribed an inaccurately low figure for the minimum wage in Vietnam. uSanders claimed the United States has “the highest rate of childhood poverty of almost any major country on earth.” But the childhood poverty rate is higher in several industrialized economies.

Republican presidential candidate Marco Rubio poses for a photo at a town hall in Exeter on Feb. 2.

New Hampshire voters look for personal touch Fifth-smallest state makes it easy for candidates to traverse Chrissie Thompson The Cincinnati Enquirer

EXETER , N. H .

Tom Diggins wouldn’t give his short list for the New Hampshire primary.

It turns out, in the week before Granite State voters cast ballots in the nation’s second nominating contest, the 70-year-old retired postal worker had yet to narrow down his choices.

“I like sizing them up. I can’t do it on TV. There’s too many people asking weird questions,” said Diggins, of Exeter, who had come to see Marco Rubio in his town Tuesday night. “I want to see them all. You can do this in New Hampshire.”

Indeed, presidential candidates are spending the eight days between the Iowa caucuses Mon-

day and the New Hampshire primary next Tuesday touring the state, and many voters are waiting to see them all — sometimes for the second time — to make their final decision.

New Hampshire ranks as the country’s fifth-smallest state, making it easy for candidates to visit the border with Vermont at lunchtime and the metropolitan Boston area in the evening, sometimes with a stop in between.

The Granite State’s primary encourages last-minute decisions. Close to half of the state’s 874,000 voters don’t register with a party, which allows them to vote in either the Republican or Democratic primary. While statistics show nearly all of them will cast the same party’s ballots as they did in previous years, many undeclared voters consider candidates

from both parties up until the primary.

Indeed, half of all voters in the last two elections hadn’t made up their minds by the Sunday before the primary, according to Andrew Smith, director of the University of New Hampshire Survey Center.

And while many voters insist they won’t pay attention to the results of last week’s Iowa caucus, New Hampshire polls have shown some changes. Donald Trump, who had led the field by 20 percentage points, has slipped a bit, to around 31%, according to the RealClearPolitics polling average. Rubio has moved into second place with 15% support after a stronger-than-expected showing in Iowa. Ted Cruz, John Kasich and Jeb Bush are several points back, competing for third.

IN BRIEF BERNIE SANDERS TO APPEAR ON ‘SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE’

Bernie Sanders may be teaming up with his doppelgänger this weekend.

The Washington Post reports that Sanders, who’s leading Hillary Clinton in New Hampshire ahead of the state’s Tuesday primary, is taking a break from campaigning in the Granite State to head to New York on Saturday.

While there, he is “likely” to appear on Saturday Night Live, The Post says, citing a source with direct knowledge of plans.

CNN was more definitive, quoting senior Sanders adviser Tad Devine as saying, “We’ll be live in New York.”

Why would this Saturday be a particularly significant episode for the Vermont senator to appear on the show? Larry David, the comedian who’s impersonated Sanders on SNL, will be hosting.

Syrian President Bashar Assad’s military forces were closing in on the opposition-held city of Aleppo on Friday, highlighting the growing success of regime forces who are backed by a wave of Russian airstrikes.

The offensive into rebel territory by government troops sent thousands of Syrians fleeing toward the border with Turkey and threatened to unleash a new humanitarian disaster in a 5-yearold war that has already led to the deaths of more than 250,000 people.

Retaking Aleppo, a key commercial center in Syria, would be a critical victory for the regime and the latest in a series of setbacks for opposition forces.

Regime successes have made prospects for a brokered political solution even more remote since Assad would not be encouraged to make concessions.

destroys $529B this year

SPENCER PLATT, GETTY IMAGES

Traders on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange have had an anxious start to the year.

Massive drops are a big reason for Nasdaq’s pain Matt Krantz USA TODAY

The bad year for stocks is getting worse by the minute — and tech investors are feeling the brunt of the pain.

The 462 information technology stocks in the broad Russell 3000 index have shredded a total of $529 billion this year thanks to their average decline of 14%, according to a USA TODAY analysis of data from S&P Capital IQ. Crashing stocks have served up a brutal reminder why betting on speculative stocks in the technology sector is dangerous business when investors get nervous about growth. The tech-heavy Nasdaq composite index is the worst hit major index of the major ones investors watch — sliding 13% this year while the broader Standard & Poor’s 500 is off just 8%.

The Nasdaq’s losses from the high are starting to get nervously close to the unofficial definition of a bear market: A decline

of 20% or more. The Nasdaq is down more than 16% from its highest point over the past 12 months. The S&P 500, on the other hand, is down just 11.8%.

Massive drops in technology stocks are a big reason for the Nasdaq’s pain. The latest stunning example is online social networking company for professionals, LinkedIn. After telling investors that profit would grow this year — just not as much as previously thought — shares Friday closed down $83.79, or 44%, to $108.49. That devastating drop erases $15.3

billion in market value this year.

What’s even more startling, though, is that LinkedIn’s massive wealth destruction this year ranks just seventh among the tech stocks in the Russell 3000. Gadget maker Apple is the biggest destroyer of wealth this year — chewing through $62.3 billion this year as investors brace for the company to morph from a growth engine to a shrinking giant. Shares of Apple Friday closed down $2.58, or 2.7%, to $94.02.

Even Alphabet, the online advertising giant that briefly became the most valuable company in the world this week, has been sinking. Shares are down more than 10% since the company reported blow-out quarterly profit this week. Now, the stock has wiped out $51 billion in market value this year.

Shares closed down $26.27, or 3.6%, to $703.76 Friday.

LinkedIn isn’t the only former tech darling that’s crashing.

Salesforce.com, a cloud-based provider of worker tracking systems, is cratering and wiping out $13.2 billion in shareholder value this year. The stock closed down 13%, or $8.69, to $58.51 Friday.

Wall Street’s short winning streak came to a brutal end Friday as a disappointing jobs report sent stocks skidding and the Nasdaq composite to its lowest level in more than 15 months.

The Dow Jones industrial average, which had patched together two consecutive days of gains, was down 211.61 points, or 1.3%, to 16,204.97. The broader Standard & Poor’s 500 was down 35.40 points, or 1.9%, to 1880.05.

The real carnage was in the Nasdaq, which tumbled 146.41 points, or 3.3%. to 4363.14 — its lowest close since Oct. 20, 2014.

The Nasdaq is 16.4% below its record close last year, creeping ever closer to a 20% loss that would qualify as a bear market.

Stocks slid from the opening bell following the release of a weak January jobs report, a key data point that shows a possible downshift in the U.S. economy amid global tumult and which adds further uncertainty to Federal Reserve interest rate policy.

The government reported that 151,000 new jobs were created last month, below the 190,000 jobs economists had forecast. The unemployment rate ticked lower to an eight-year low of 4.9%, down from 5% in December.

Investors were analyzing the jobs number closely, as the not-too-strong, not-too-weak print could put the Fed back in play for a March rate hike.

Given the market turbulence to start the year, “Jobs Friday” holds even more weight on Wall Street as it provided the first glimpse into the state of the employment market following the recent market and economic tumult around the globe.

At the start of the year the Fed was eyeing four quarter-point rate hikes totaling 1%, but the early-year tumult in markets resulted in Wall Street dialing back its expectations, with many investors betting on fewer rate hikes and ruling out another hike next month.

Kate Warne, investment strategist at Edward Jones, says, on balance, the employment report was positive and suggests still solid jobs growth and an economy still on track for modest growth, despite the miss on the headline number.

Shkreli taunts Internet debaters ‘People with AIDS actually like me,’ former drug CEO says Nathan Bomey USA TODAY

USA SNAPSHOTS©

USA TODAY

Controversial drug entrepreneur Martin Shkreli taunted people to debate him online Friday over his decision to increase the price of a life-saving drug from $13.50 to $750, arguing that he had actually made the drug more accessible for poor patients.

Periodically picking at an acoustic guitar on a live video feed open to the world, Shkreli chatted with random users a day after he refused to testify before Congress, citing his Fifth Amendment right not to incriminate himself.

Shkreli defended his decision to increase the price of Daraprim by more than 5,000%. The pill is used to treat toxoplasmosis, a parasitic disease that afflicts people with weakened immune sys-

Martin Shkreli refused to testify before Congress Thursday.

tems, such as those with AIDS and pregnant women.

He said his previous company, Turing Pharmaceuticals, which still controls the rights to the drug, had increased availability of the drug for people who can’t afford it, even though the price remains $750 for most users.

“People with AIDs actually like me,” Shkreli said on the live stream.

Shkreli repeatedly challenged participants to articulate arguments against his position. “I’m looking for someone who wants to debate and hate,” he said.

And he periodically insulted participants whom he deemed to be insufficient.

“That was a feeble attempt at a debate,” he said after one person chatted with him. “Sorry everyone for witnessing that. If we could get someone a little better, a little smarter.”

When one user named Ben appeared animated but was not audible because of his live-stream settings, Shkreli burst into laughter.

“It sounds like you’ve got a lot of hate — a lot of hate in your heart, which is good,” he said. “If you put half the amount of hate you have into learning how to use a computer, you’d be in much better shape.”

One person, whose screen name was Pop Music Girl, suggested that Shkreli’s price increase had correspondingly increased the price of insurance health care premiums for other Americans. Shkreli took exception to that argument.

“This is one of the smallest drugs in existence,” he said. “It’s

just too small. No one takes this drug. It’s not a commonly used medicine. It’s not going to change insurance premiums.”

He added: “You should be having a webcast with the CEO of Pfizer or Merck, not me.”

Shkreli did not discuss multiple criminal securities charges he is facing over allegations that he took stock from a previous biotech company to pay off business debts and lied about the investment returns of his former hedge fund.

The live stream was not a first for Shkreli, who has cultivated a flamboyant and defiant personality by setting up a web cam to film himself working, posting sarcastic messages on Twitter and paying $2 million for the only copy of a new Wu Tang Clan album.

But his sudden verbosity on Friday contrasted sharply with his appearance before the House Committee on Oversight & Government Reform on Thursday, where he smirked and grinned while facing fiery lectures but refused to answer any questions.

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

Maybe a Federal Reserve rate hike in March is back on the table — considering the way the market reacted to the January jobs report, which missed on the headline number of jobs created but had enough positives imbedded in it to cause stock investors to sell off the market yet again.

Fed confusion has returned, and with it another wild day on Wall Street, with stocks skidding lower amid fears the Fed will make a mistake and hike rates too fast and cause harm to an economy that’s growing slowly as it is.

You’d think the weaker-thanexpected 151,000 jobs created in January would have everyone on Wall Street saying a March rate is off the table. Instead, some good

Automaker’s troubles leave investors wanting Q: Why is Ford stock doing so poorly?

Matt Krantz

mkrantz@usatoday.com USA TODAY

A: Ford shares reflect the realization profit growth probably won’t be as strong as it was — and investors want to pay less.

Investors have pushed shares of Ford down 18% this year to roughly $12. Analysts think the automaker’s adjusted profit per share will rise just 2% this year — a significant slowdown from the 66% growth in 2015. Investors see Ford’s revenue rising 3.6% in 2016 — roughly in line with 2015’s top-line growth.

Falling expectations for profit growth are being priced into the stock. Ford trades for 9.6 times its earnings over the past 12 months, S&P Capital IQ says, down dramatically from its more than 16-times multiple just a year ago. Ford shares now have a P-E that’s below the company’s long-term expected annual growth rate of 15%.

Ford’s troubles are more about the stock than the company. The volatile stock market and worries of a global economic slowdown are causing investors to reprice what they think Ford is worth.

Analysts have actually been increasing their estimates for what they think the company will earn this year.

Analysts expect adjusted profit of $1.97 a share this year, which is 2.6% more than they expected six months ago, S&P Capital IQ says.

IRS resumes tax return processing after computer outage Kevin McCoy USA TODAY

The IRS resumed processing of 2015 federal tax returns after a suspected hardware failure that knocked some of the tax agency’s computers out of service.

Processing of returns for individuals and businesses started anew around 5 p.m. ET Thursday after IRS teams worked on the problem, the agency said. Other electronic tools and applications, including the “Where’s My Refund” function on the IRS.gov website, were restored earlier.

Taxpayers, including those who e-filed their 2015 returns just before or during the outage, don’t need to take any additional action, the IRS said. Although some IRS computer systems were out from at least Wednesday evening until Thursday evening, taxpayers were able to continue to send their returns to their e-filing providers. Those providers, such as tax-preparation firms, accountants, attorneys and others, have resumed transmissions of the tax returns, the IRS said.

Additionally, filers who received a specific date from the IRS’ Where’s My Refund tool

should face no impact from the outage, the agency said.

Nine out of 10 taxpayers will receive their refunds within 21 days after their tax returns are received and accepted, IRS Commissioner John Koskinen said.

“Taxpayers should see little, if any, impact on their tax returns or refunds,” Koskinen said. “We apologize for the inconvenience this caused, and we appreciate the support and patience from taxpayers as well as our partners in the tax community and state revenue departments.”

Apart from attributing the outage to an apparent hardware fail-

ure, the IRS offered no immediate response to questions seeking more explanation.

Rep. Jason Chaffetz, R-Utah, a frequent IRS critic, on Thursday suggested the IRS computer systems might have been attacked by electronic hackers. The IRS did not respond to questions about the assertion.

Apart from the recent outage, the nation’s tax agency has suffered numerous computer-related problems and issues in recent years. Cyber thieves last year stole as much as $39 million by filing roughly 13,000 fraudulent tax refunds after gaining access to

taxpayer information via the IRS “get transcript” application, Koskinen told Congress in June. The application is an interactive program that enables legitimate taxpayers to access copies of their own federal tax returns from previous years.

The management report also said the IRS did not meet U.S. Department of Homeland Security performance levels set to ensure that government computer systems “are maintained in an organized, secure and approved manner, including timely installing patches to resolve known security vulnerabilities.”

Since the dawn of the movie industry, stars have said dumb things, film productions have gone off the rails — budgetary or otherwise — and scandals have been covered up.

Nowadays, that job is done by several people: publicists, agents, producers, managers, you name it. Back in the 1950s, though, a “fixer” would make sure everything was kosher before the gossip columnists could get ahold of the news.

That’s the kind of character writer/directors Joel and Ethan Coen most wanted to explore with the comedy Hail, Caesar! — a day in the life of a Hollywood problem-solver.

“The character intrigued us,” Joel says. “He has a lot of balls in the air, and it’s on a 24-hour clock.”

Eddie Mannix (Josh Brolin) has religious and family concerns, but as soon as he steps on the Capitol Pictures lot, he has to

“The studio is kind of the world, and Eddie Mannix checks in with (his boss) Mr. Schenk every morning,” Ethan says.

“Mr. Schenk decides this Western star should be in a drawingroom drama. It seems idiotic when you meet the actor and you see him interact with the director, but Mr. Schenk is always right.”

Adds Joel: “It’s very, very loosely this idea that Mr. Schenk is God and Eddie is the son of God.” The real Eddie Mannix worked

as a fixer at MGM, but Ethan says they only took his job and name.

“The real Eddie Mannix was pretty much a thug.” Plus, the situations encountered by Brolin’s Mannix are heightened for dramatic effect.

Would fixers still work the same way now, in a modern time of selfies and sex tapes? The Coens don’t think so — for one, “The celebrities are different in terms of people’s access to them,” Ethan says.

“The media is so different,” Joel says. “It’s the same as in movies. As in every other aspect of life, the media is so pervasive.

“Social media is such a huge thing in terms of people’s access to information and having to control information. (The early 1950s), which is the setting of this movie, was a more manageable era in terms of being able to control information the way that our character does in this movie.”

When it comes to movie-making, though, the Coens feel there are aspects that haven’t changed in the last 60 years, and some things need fixing every day.

“It’s still storytelling, so it’s still hard to control,” Ethan says. “And it’s still done by lunatics.”

Have the Coens felt the need for a fixer in their long career?

Joel laughs: “No, we’re not lunatics. We’re the exception.”

PARK CITY, UTAH Most Sundance Film Festival attendees packed down jackets and snow boots. Netflix and Amazon filled their bags with cash.

Both streaming platforms invaded the festival this year, often shoving traditional distributors aside by driving up bidding wars for films.

“There were no movies we were outbid on,” says Amazon Studios head Roy Price, who bought the Kate Beckinsale-starring Jane Austen tale Love & Friendship ($2 million), Rachel Weisz’s Complete Unknown (just over $2 million), oddball comedy Wiener-Dog (a seven-figure deal) and the documentary Author: The JT LeRoy Story ($1 million).

Before the festival, Netflix wrote big checks for hot titles such as Ellen Page’s Tallulah ($5 million for streaming rights) and Paul Rudd’s The Fundamentals of Caring ($7 million). This week, it also purchased the documentary Audrie & Daisy and the Iranian horror film Under the Shadow.

Last year, Amazon attended

the festival and went home with nothing. “We were just starting then,” Price says, noting his mandate is the same: visionary films “that you’re going to remember, that are compelling.”

Wallet size matters, but so does return on investment. Streaming sites don’t have to worry about box office bombs. “There’s a big opportunity for streaming services like Netflix and Amazon to snatch up buzzy movies that will not do well theatrically but will

find a healthy audience at home streaming,” Fandango.com managing editor Erik Davis says.

They’re also keeping an eye on awards films. Amazon is betting big on Manchester By the Sea, a top pick for critics at the festival.

Amazon prevailed in an all-night fight for the Casey Affleck drama, paying $10 million with the promise of a theatrical release and an awards season push.

“Streaming services want in on Oscar nominations,” Davis says.

The tide turned when The Birth of A Nation hit the market.

The slavery drama from director/ writer/star Nate Parker, which won the U.S. Grand Jury Prize and the Audience Award, had distributors scrambling to win the potential Oscar candidate.

Netflix, which Deadline reportedly offered $20 million for the film, ultimately lost to Fox Searchlight, the studio behind best-picture nominee Brooklyn and 12 Years a Slave, which took home best picture at the Oscars in 2014. Searchlight secured Birth for $17.5 million.

“It was about aligning with a partner that really shared the same passion for getting this thing seen by the masses on a global scale, and the connection we had personally,” Parker says.

But it probably didn’t help that Netflix’s first major awards contender, Beasts of No Nation, was shut out of this year’s Oscar nominations. The film streamed on Netflix and was simultaneously released in just 31 theaters, pulling in only $91,000.

“Movies that have major Oscar potential want to send a message they should be seen on as many screens as possible,” Davis says.

Netflix declined to comment.

Douglas County Conservation District Conservation Edition

Special advertising focus of the Lawrence Journal-World

MAKING (SOME) SENSE OF THE GOVERNMENT ALPHABET Farmers and landowners looking to implement conservation practices have a variety of assistance opportunities here in Douglas County. Cost-share and technical assistance is available at federal, state, and county levels from different organizations.

The Farm Service Agency (FSA) administers farm commodity, disaster, and conservation programs for farmers and ranchers, and makes and guarantees farm emergency, ownership, and operating loans through a network of State and county offices.

Popular programs associated with the FSA include the Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) and Agriculture Risk Coverage & Price Loss Coverage (ARC/PLC) program. The Conservation Reserve Program allows landowners to take eligible land out of agricultural production and place it into an appropriate conservation practice while still receiving an annual payment on the land. The ARC/PLC programs primarily allow producers to continue to produce for the market by making payments on a percentage of historical base production, limiting the impact on production decisions.

The Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS), formerly known as the Soil Conservation Service (SCS), is an agency of the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) that provides technical assistance to farmers and other private landowners and managers.

One of the most accessed NRCS programs in Douglas County is the Environmental Quality Incentives Program

(EQIP). The purpose of EQIP is to provide technical and financial assistance to landowners to help them improve their soil, water and related natural resources, including grazing lands, wetlands, and wildlife habitat Watershed Restoration and Protection Strategy (WRAPS) is a planning and management framework that engages stakeholders within a particular watershed in a process to identify watershed restoration and protection needs and opportunities, establish management goals for the watershed community, create a cost-effective action plan to achieve goals, and then implement the action plan WRAPS represents a shift from “top-down” government intervention in watershed issues, to a more citizen-stakeholder approach, in which funds, guidance and technical assistance are provided for stakeholders to reach consensus on issues of relevance in their watershed, and then design and execute a plan to address those issues. Five WRAPS are located in Douglas County; Upper Wakarusa, Lower Kansas, Hillsdale Lake, and Marais des Cygnes Basin, and Middle Kansas.

The creation of Kansas Conservation Districts resulted from problems associated with severe soil erosion during the Dust Bowl. In 1937, the Kansas legislature passed

the Conservation District Law leading to the formation of conservation districts in Kansas. The conservation district is the primary local unit of government responsible for the conservation of soil, water and related natural resources within the county boundary. Kansas conservation districts are political subdivisions of state government charged with this vital role. Funding comes from county and state allocations, with some districts generating funds by providing conservation goods and services.

Your Douglas County Conservation District provides cost-share assistance to local landowners using funding provided by the state and county. Some projects are funded up to 70% of the actual cost. Possible projects include terraces, underground tile and outlets, range planting, brush management, livestock watering facility and pipeline, field borders, internal fencing, spring development, forage and biomass planting, and septic repairs. All projects are ranked using objective criteria and funding is then allocated based upon those rankings.

A multitude of agencies and organizations are on the scene and each one has something to offer. The role of the district is to either offer assistance that is available or be able to refer a landowner to another organization that may be able to help.

These agencies are in place to help the landowner with conservation resource concerns, and help to make Douglas County a better place to live. If you are interested in learning more, please join the Douglas County Conservation District in a Conservation Conversation on March 14 at 7:00 p.m. at the Baldwin City Library.

DOUGLAS COUNTY CONSERVATION DISTRICT – THE BEGINNING Severe soil erosion problems during the “Dust Bowl” days prompted the passage of the Conservation District Law by the Kansas legislature in 1937, which led to the formation of conservation districts in Kansas. Across the state, 105 conservation districts (one in every county) provide local leadership by helping people address their natural resource needs.

The Douglas County Conservation District was formed by farmers and landowners at referendums held on August 17-20, 1945. Most farmers believed that a soil conservation district would be of great help in solving the serious erosion problems of the county. Two farmers, Emil Heck of Lawrence and Wilson Counts of Baldwin, were appointed supervisors by the State Soil Conservation Committee. On January 4, 1946 Homer Gerstenberger of Eudora, George Butell of Baldwin, and Leslie Demeritt of Clinton were elected supervisors. Current Supervisors include David Brown, Baldwin City; Mike Florey, Lawrence; Jordan Olsen, Lawrence, Luke Ulrich, Baldwin City and Karen Willey, Baldwin City.

On January 11, 1946, The Douglas County Conservation District requested technical assistance from the USDA Soil Conservation Service (SCS), which changed its name to the Natural Resource Conservation Service (NRCS) in 1994. M. H. Wertzberger was assigned

as technician to the district. This was the beginning of a partnership between Douglas County landowners, the Douglas County Conservation District and the NRCS that continues to this day. Current NRCS personnel partnering with the District include Tim Miller, supervisory district conservationist, and Coleen Davison, soil conservationist.

In the seventy years the Conservation District has existed, much has changed. Farming practices have improved, technology has advanced, equipment has gotten larger, and money has gotten tighter. The Conservation District of today serves as a conduit for technological advances, funding opportunities and education. After 70 years, many things have changed within the district, but the focus has remained the same – providing leadership and assistance in promoting individual responsibility for the conservation of Douglas County natural resources.

DOUGLAS COUNTY CONSERVATION DISTRICT – PROMOTING EDUCATION “An investment in knowledge pays the best interest” – Benjamin Franklin. One of the Douglas County Conservation District’s primary goals is to provide educational opportunities and information related to conservation and environmental education. This goal is accomplished through outreach to youth and adults in the county.

The Douglas County Conservation District (DCCD) offers a variety of resources to assist educators in incorporating conservation education in their classrooms.

We have many educational kits on a range of topics including soil and water conservation, and other environmental concerns. The kits include the lesson plan and materials needed to present the idea. The kits are available to borrow at no cost! The DCCD Education and Outreach Coordinator is ready to help any Douglas County educator advance conservation education, just give the office a call.

Adults are also included in the DCCD Education program. Through a new series of lectures entitled

“Conservation Conversations”, a wide variety of topics are presented around the county every other month.

Subscribe to our e-newsletter and friend us on Facebook to keep up with all of our happenings.

This summer, we will be providing education on pollinators through the installation of a pollinator garden at our office site located at the USDA Service Center.

Thanks to the Elizabeth Schultz Environmental Fund of the Douglas County Community Foundation, we will be planting native and introduced plants that will help provide food and cover for bees, butterflies and other pollinators. Through signage, we hope to provide education on plants and practices that will encourage even a small increase in pollinator numbers.

Congratulations 2015 GRASSLAND AWARD The Douglas County Conservation district is proud to announce our 2015 Grassland Award winners, Lyle and Jan Pishny of Stilwell, Kansas. The Pishnys own “Cedar Ridge” property in Eastern Douglas County. The property has been recognized for years in Douglas County for a unique feature. As you travel south on 1061 highway east out of Vinland the property is marked with red granite rocks on each fence post for half a mile.

Lyle and Jan have made a tremendous environmental impact on the rangeland.

Their “Cedar Ridge” farm, acquired in about 2008, was quickly becoming a victim of mismanagement, no management, noxious weed and brush invasion, erosion, overgrazing, and declining water quality.

The Pishnys have implemented several environmentally conscious management

Because it matters.

When used correctly, a vertical tillage tool should size residue for more rapid decomposition, pin and incorporate residue for enhanced erosion resistance, and lift soil vertically for partial sizing, soil warming and soil drying while avoiding compaction layers from the lateral movement of soil.

To do the job right, a tool must have sharp blades and the ability to lift an adequate amount of soil for incorporation. Se we designed our vertical tillage tools with a slightly concavity and fluted blades that act as miniature shovels, lifting soil vertically rather than moving it side to side. We also added our exclusive Saber Blades on our 6600 Series vertical tillage tools that keep an incredibly sharp edge.

The result is a tool with true vertical lifting of soil and consistent residue chopping acre after acre. You can count on it to manage your field after harvest and warm up fields before planting with the highest performance and reliability.

CONSERVATION

Douglas County Conservation District Conservation Edition

Special advertising focus of the Lawrence Journal-World

DOUGLAS COUNTY SOIL CONSERVATION AWARD Off 1061 Highway between Eudora and Wellsville, Arlen Gabriel lives in a farmhouse built in 1912. Arlen purchased the 123-acre farm where the farmhouse sits in 1990, and reports this is the last of the farmland he owns that needs conservation work installed. With more than 900 acres in two counties, he is no stranger to conservation practices.

Arlen runs a three crop, wheat, bean, corn rotation on farm ground primarily comprised of Woodson silt loam. While he knows that wheat farming is not very common in this part of the state and does not necessarily provide the best return on investment, he also knows the three crop rotation is beneficial from a conservation perspective.

With 900 acres in row-crops in both Douglas and Johnson County, saving the soil is a priority with Arlen.

This is a philosophy handed down from his father, Arthur Gabriel, who started installing some of the first

conservation practices on farms in western Johnson County as far back as 1960.

Arlen started conservation work on this farm in 2013 with the installation of grass waterways. After the waterways were seeded and grassed in, he then began installing terraces to funnel water into those waterways.

Conservation work can be slow, and timing the work between weather and crop rotations can be difficult. 2015 was a perfect example of the weather not cooperating.

The rains this past Spring and Fall delayed some terrace installations, but those terraces that were installed, saved a great deal of soil and reduced a lot or erosion that would have occurred had they not been in place.

Conservation is seldom easy, but it is well worth the effort. Arlen stated that you just have to take it one piece of land at the time, and he is grateful for the help and technical assistance provided by the NRCS and the Douglas County Conservation District.

WILDLIFE AWARD As a young man, John McGrew remembers standing on some high ground overlooking a field covered with water during the flood of 1951. He had been invited to go duck hunting over the flooded field by a local farmer and family friend. While standing there that morning, waiting for the ducks to fly in, John thought to himself, someday I would like to own this land. Growing up on the Kansas River gave John a special appreciation for the area.

Around 1980 John’s dream came true when he purchased the 220-acre farm in northern Douglas County adjacent to the Kansas River. For most of that time, the farm was row cropped.

Eventually John added an irrigation system to help keep the sandy Stonehouse-Eudora loam watered during dry times.

With the fields lying low next to the Kansas River, flooding from heavy rains and wet seasons would also create problems in one corner of the field. Unable to predict the weather, John could never be sure if planting the six-acre corner was worth the cost or if rains would flood out the crops or limit their yields.

Then in 2013, John received some information from one of the men farming his land about a new program called a farmable wetland CRP. John learned he could take the land

out of production, receive assistance with building a wetland, and receive an annual payment on the acreage no longer in production. Unfortunately, the program was left unfunded in 2013 and 2014 so John was unable to build the wetland and continued planting row crops while hoping for the best.

In 2015, John was tired of waiting, so with some assistance from Wildlife Biologist Brad Rueschhoff with the Kansas Department of Wildlife, Parks, and Tourism and USFWS Partners for Wildlife Program he started work on the six-acre wetland knowing there would be no annual payment involved.

As John thought about his property, he realized that building something for waterfowl and other wildlife had a value beyond what he might receive financially. Doing something good for the environment was its own reward.

John completed the wetland in April 2015. He installed wood duck boxes around the perimeter and hopes to have nesting next year. He said that with the warm winter he has not seen the number of waterfowl he had hoped for initially, but believes they will come now that the wetland is established. He enjoys watching the birds, and enjoys walking the area with his dog.

And for those of you wondering, John did shoot some ducks that morning more than 60 years ago.

THE YEAR THAT WAS: THE INTERNATIONAL YEAR OF SOILS JEFFREY A. HELLERICH, RESOURCE SOIL SCIENTIST Many rural Kansans recognize the value and importance of our soil resource, but the same may not be true for those living near urban centers. Although Kansas is a heavily agricultural state, it should be noted that in 2009 over 80 percent of the United States population lived in urban areas, and that number is expected to increase to over 90 percent by 2050. As our civilization becomes more urbanized, we will continue to lose the connection with the agricultural backbone that is responsible for feeding more than seven billion people.

Our soil is one of the most significant, and most overlooked, of our natural resources. Nearly everyone is aware of our need for clean air and clean water, but maintaining healthy soils is just as important. Recognizing this information gap, the United Nations adopted a resolution declaring 2015 as the International Year of Soils with the goal to “raise awareness and to promote sustainability of the limited soil resources, using the best available scientific information.”

Key messages of the campaign are to educate the public on: • Healthy soils are the basis for healthy food production • Soils are the foundation for vegetation which is cultivated or managed for feed, fiber,

fuel, and medicines • Soils support biodiversity and they host one-fourth of the planet’s biodiversity • Soils play a key role in the carbon cycle • Soils store and filter water, improving our resilience to floods and droughts • Soil is a non-renewable resource; its preservation is essential for food security and a sustainable future Although proclamations like these have the potential to be lost in the shuffle of everyday life, what is impressive about this resolution is the international nature of this effort. Last summer my parents were on a vacation in Europe and during a stop in Rome just a few blocks from

the Colosseum, they saw a giant banner hanging from a multi-story building proclaiming 2015 as the International Year of Soils.

Even halfway across the world, people are starting to take notice of the importance of soils to all terrestrial life. Here in Kansas we are incredibly fortunate to be blessed with large areas of abundant and productive soils, but that does not mean we can take this resource for granted. Looking back on 2015 as the International Year of Soils provides a great opportunity to pause and reflect on just how valuable our soils are, and to put effort into management practices that conserve and enhance this vital resource.

For more information, visit the Kansas NRCS Web site (www.ks.nrcs.usda.gov) or your local U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Service Center.

HIGH SCHOOL BASKETBALL

Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

Kansas football recruiting will take some time Sheahon Zenger hired David Beaty in part because he is well-connected in Texas, where he won a high school state championship as a head coach in the Dallas area, worked at Rice and Texas A&M as an assistant and brought with him a reputation as a strong recruiter.

So, naturally, Beaty cleaned up on signing day, bringing in A&M-caliber athletes, right? Wrong. It doesn’t work that way. In college football, the school that finishes last picks last for recruits after the winning programs fill their spots.

Just two paths to a slow, steady climb up the basement steps exist. The first involves evaluating well when trying to project which high school athletes bypassed by the Texas titans have the potential to develop into Big 12-caliber players.

Picking the right football prospects/projects requires knowing which high school coaches tend to oversell their players, which ones tell the truth, warts and all. It requires looking at the physical traits — body shape, limb length, agility, flexibility, raw strength, speed, quickness — and making an educated guess as to a player’s ceiling in each area. The same projection is required pertaining to a teenager’s football intelligence, emotional maturity and mental and physical toughness.

The second path involves the staff developing athletes in practice on a daily basis.

On that front, this staff appeared up to the task because practices moved along at a crisp pace and were packed with consistent instruction delivered at in-your-face distance, but not in a way as to disgrace.

That Beaty’s second recruiting class didn’t crack the top 90 comes as no surprise. For one thing, by taking transfers that counted against the Class of 2016, 17 scholarships, not 25, were available. Plus, opposing coaches had at their disposal negative recruiting grist galore. An 0-12 record doesn’t excite anybody. And then there is the perception that Kansas is a basketball school, a tough rap to beat when every one of the other

FSHS boys slip past Northwest in overtime

By Benton Smith basmith@ljworld.com

Sam Goodwin/Special to the Journal-World

FREE STATE’S CHRISION WILBURN (10) LAUNCHES A SHOT AGAINST Shawnee Mission Northwest on Friday night at FSHS. The Firebirds won, 59-58, in overtime.

Free State High’s boys basketball team hadn’t trailed since the opening minutes Friday night against Shawnee Mission Northwest. But when Cougars senior guard Ferdinand Handy guided his team to a late-game surge, the Firebirds had to fall back on their crunch-time experience.

After Handy’s third threepointer of the fourth quarter tied the game at 50 with more than a minute left in regulation, some hustle plays and free throws gave FSHS just enough to prevail, 59-58, in overtime at FSHS. The Firebirds took the lead for good in the final minute of the extra period, when senior forward Chrision Wilburn chased down a loose ball and made two free throws with 46 seconds left.

And although SMNW senior guard Dylan Dirks drilled a three-pointer in the closing seconds of OT, it wasn’t enough to extend the game, because Free State senior Kristian Rawls (1-for-2 at the free-throw line in overtime) and junior Jay Dineen (2-for-2) had padded the lead in the final 30 seconds.

“Jay hit some big free throws down the stretch to (extend) the lead,” FSHS coach Sam Stroh said of Dineen’s successful trip with 11.2 seconds remaining, putting the home team up four, “and we got a couple stops Please see FSHS BOYS, page 3C

Jayhawks remember nightmare at TCU

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Fort Worth, Texas — Jamari Traylor remembers the fateful day Kansas University’s basketball team temporarily forgot how to put the ball in the basket.

Back on Feb. 6, 2013, during the 6-foot-8 forward’s freshman season, the Jayhawks managed to score a mere two points the first 12 minutes, six points the Please see KEEGAN, page 4C initial 16 minutes and 13 the

(entire) first half of a 62-55 loss to a TCU team that entered not only as an 18-point underdog, but 0-8 in the Big 12 and 9-12 overall.

“I was thinking, ‘Oh, man.

We are in a hole right now,’’’ senior forward Traylor said of his thoughts with KU down, 22-13, at halftime in the Horned Frogs’ DanielMeyer Coliseum.

“At the time, I still thought we were going to win the game. I didn’t think we were going to lose, but

we did. That was a bad point in time for us. We had lost two in a row (actually the previous game to Oklahoma State) or three in a row, something crazy. We had to turn it around, and we did that year. We won it that year,” Traylor added of the league title.

An 18-4, 6-3 KU team today returns to the same building — now referred to as 8,500-seat Schollmaier Arena — to face a TCU team (10-12, 1-8) that, as it

did in February of 2013, resides in the cellar of the Big 12 Conference.

This time, the Jayhawks, who beat TCU, 70-63, on Jan. 16 in Allen Fieldhouse, say they are taking nothing for granted entering today’s 11 a.m. tipoff.

“We haven’t been good on the road this year (1-3 in league). We’ve got to play better on the road than we have been,” Traylor said. “I

LAWRENCE HIGH SENIOR PRICE MORGAN (11) TAKES THE BALL TO THE RIM after getting by Shawnee Mission South defender Yor Anei during the Lions’ 49-42 victory Friday at LHS.

Lawrence High senior Price Morgan went straight to the school’s training room after Friday’s 49-42 victory against Shawnee Mission South to get taped up — the result of a physical and grinding boys basketball game in the Jungle.

“I’ve felt worse,” Morgan said with a wide smile.

Winning always helps, and Morgan was the key for the Lions, who were playing their second straight game without senior point guard Justin Roberts. Morgan scored 14 points in the fourth quarter and marked his territory in the paint.

Free State girls stifled

By Benton Smith basmith@ljworld.com

Two of the Sunflower League’s best girls basketball players squared off Friday night at Free State High, and when the final buzzer sounded, Shawnee Mission Northwest senior forward Brenni Rose left the court smiling.

FSHS junior Madison Piper, on the other hand, exited in frustration, following a 33-29 defeat at the hands of SMNW. The Firebirds’ leading scorer, Piper hit a floater in the first quarter and a jumper in the second, but couldn’t get another field goal to fall through the net on her 2-for-9 night.

The Cougars, ranked No. 3 in Class 6A, never let Piper get open for more than a second or two, and when they did, they recovered defensively to make sure she could neither find her comfort level nor see the basket well enough to rise and fire.

“We just had a hard time getting her open, inside or out,” FSHS coach Bryan Duncan said, “and they did a pretty good job on defense.”

SMNW (12-2) limited Free State (10-4) to 7-for25 shooting in the final three quarters by taking away Piper, who finished with five points and seven rebounds.

“I think they’re just a better team,” Duncan said. “They’re long. They face-guarded her, but everybody else was pretty good, too. I don’t think they did anything different than what we’ve seen

The Firebirds, ranked No. 7 in 6A, made Rose work, but the 6-foot senior often outmaneuvered her defender with cross-over dribbles and spin moves, allowing her to get to the paint for baskets and assists. Rose scored a gamehigh 17 points on 5-for-12 shooting and made six of her seven free throws on a night the entire FSHS team went 1-for-7 at the foul line.

The Firebirds played well enough in the first quarter to get out to a 12-4 lead, thanks to timely three-pointers from Caiti Schlesener (eight points) and Jaelyn Two Hearts (10 points off the bench), who hit her bomb from the corner in the waning seconds of the period.

FSHS also stymied the Cougars’ offense early, limiting the visitors to 1-for-11 shooting in the first eight minutes. How-

ever, SMNW controlled the game for the majority of the final three quarters, seemingly flipping a switch after a dismal start.

“We knew they’d be coming back,” Duncan said, adding the Firebirds also expected both teams to scrap on defense — both shot 12-for-35 from the field. “We really thought the first team to 40 would win. It turned out the first team to 30 won.”

ity. When he wasn’t trying to post up on offense, he was diving across the hardwood for loose balls or fighting for rebounds.

“Once you get a little momentum going, everybody just starts to feed off of it, even yourself,” said Morgan, who had a team-high 21 points and 11 rebounds.

The tide finally turned at the end of the third quarter when LHS junior forward Kobe Buffalomeat grabbed a rebound and passed it ahead to senior Anthony Harvey, who went to the rim for a buzzer-beating layup.

After Morgan took a charge on SM South’s first possession of the fourth quarter, Harvey drilled a triple — the team’s only three-pointer in 14 attempts. Harvey’s three gave the top-ranked

team in Class 6A its first lead since early in the first quarter.

SM South (7-7 overall, 2-3 in Sunflower League) answered Harvey’s threepointer with a layup, but Morgan elicited from the crowd a full-pitched roar with a layup-and-thefoul bucket. That started a stretch of nine straight LHS points by Morgan.

Facing a 2-3 zone for most of the night, the Lions (13-1, 5-0) struggled to make any shots from the outside. Awaiting inside of the three-point line were SM South forwards AJ Webster and Yor Anei.

The 6-9 sophomore Anei blocked five shots, and the 6-8 Webster added three blocks.

“Those guys had five or six inches on him, it felt like, but he’s quick, and he anticipates pretty

well,” LHS coach Mike Lewis said of Morgan.

“And he just fights, so you better be ready to battle when you’re playing against him.”

Despite problems shooting the ball, the Lions stayed strong defensively.

The Raiders shot 1-of-17 from behind the threepoint line. SMS senior point guard CJ Hill scored a game-high 22 points on 7-for-20 shooting.

and just got out with a win. We’ve got to get better.”

Four third-quarter turnovers and five more in the fourth contributed to the Cougars’ comeback, and Stroh characterized Free State’s decision-making as “interesting” at times in the second half. But the Firebirds (11-2) have reached a point where they know how to win these types of games. This marked their third overtime victory of the season, and they’ve defeated three other opponents by five or fewer points.

Said Wilburn: “Some games we don’t play hard enough for 32 minutes. But we start fighting harder the last couple of minutes, try to get the win.”

Added Stroh: “We like playing extra minutes, I guess. I don’t know. I’m not happy. I know the guys weren’t satisfied.”

Senior Hunter Gudde scored both of Free State’s OT field goals on drives to the paint, and led the team with 14 points.

Those baskets helped offset layups from the Cougars’ Jamey Fisher and Handy (23 points) in four minutes of extra time.

Soon after, Dineen kept a FSHS possession alive by diving on the floor for a loose ball, causing a tie-up. Wilburn fed off that energy on defense less than 30 seconds later, when the 6-foot-3 forward out-hustled everyone else on the court for a steal.

“I was mostly trying to go get the two points, try to get the and-one, get the game going,” Wilburn said of his mid-chase strategy.

Although he had missed two free throws 30 seconds earlier, Wilburn made two on his second OT trip to the foul line.

“I just kind of put it out of my head, took a deep breath,” Wilburn said, “just went through my flow to try and make free throws.”

Gudde only scored one field goal in the first three quarters, but had seven points in the fourth quarter and overtime, after SMNW made a 9-0 run to close the third and make the Firebirds sweat.

LAWRENCE HIGH SOPHOMORE TALIMA HARJO (13) LEAPS past Shawnee Mission South sophomore Robyn MacDonald in the Lions’ 63-27 victory on Friday at LHS.

LHS girls roll to 1st league win

By Bobby Nightengale bnightengale@ljworld.com

Lawrence High’s girls basketball players believe their third-place finish at the Capital City Classic last week was a turning point in their season.

The future looked bright Friday. The Lions played their best game of the season defensively in a 63-27 rout of Shawnee Mission South in the Jungle.

The Lions, who picked up their first Sunflower League win, held the Raiders to just two points in the first seven minutes.

Afterward, they led by double-digits for the rest of the way.

“The first half defense was as good as we’ve played all year,” LHS coach Jeff Dickson said.

“We weren’t allowing as many second shots. We weren’t putting them on the free-throw line and bailing them out with reaching and grabbing.

People were in help position. I thought we did a better job of boxing out.”

The Lions went on a 13-0 run in the first quarter after the Raiders (4-10 overall, 1-4 in Sunflower League) scored on a layup in the first 20 seconds. Sophomore guard E’lease Stafford, who scored a game-high 15 points, highlighted the spurt with a few strong drives to the rim. Sophomore Talima Harjo and junior Olivia Lemus added three-pointers.

Freshman guard Hannah Stewart ended the first quarter with a buzzer-beating three-pointer.

Stewart, a steady point guard who is becoming a better scorer, finished with 11 points and three assists.

“I’ve been struggling

with my shot,” Stewart said. “I finally made one.

I just went shot by shot, making sure I’m getting my feet set and relaxing.”

The Lions (7-7, 1-4) didn’t do anything fancy defensively, but they pressured the ball and closed out on shooters.

When the Raiders did reach the paint, freshman 6-foot-3 center Chisom Ajekwu blocked four shots and affected countless others, holding SM South to 13 percent (8-of63) shooting.

Ajekwu completed a double-double with 10 points and 10 rebounds.

Harjo added 10 rebounds, and Stafford grabbed nine boards.

“I was super proud of our defense,” Stewart said. “We just came out and played with all of the adrenaline. It was really fun.”

A young team becoming older and wiser each game, the Lions focused on not letting up after taking a 27-13 lead into halftime. The Lions only allowed three points in the final six minutes of the third quarter.

The Lions will travel to SM Northwest at 5:30 p.m. Tuesday.

FOOTBALL

Tech game moved to Thursday, Sept. 29

The Big 12 Conference on Friday morning announced the move of two conference football games during the upcoming season to accommodate requests from the

feel like going there we’ve got to be more focused in order to get a win.”

A 5-0 home record is what has kept the Jayhawks in contention for a 12th-straight Big 12 title.

“We talk about it all the time. We’ve got to win games on the road,” noted sophomore guard Devonté Graham. “It’s huge in the league, and we haven’t done it yet (victory at Texas Tech with losses at West Virginia, Oklahoma State and Iowa State). Coming up on the road we have to be more focused.”

The Jayhawks, by the way, are 7-0 versus TCU since that unforgettable game in 2013. KU followed that contest with wins over the Frogs by 26, 22 and 30 points. The last four games in the series have been much closer, KU winning by seven, three, nine and five points.

“For whatever reason, we’ve played well at times against TCU, but not consistently well, and they’ve done some things to kind of mess with us defensively,” KU coach Bill Self said.

The Horned Frogs snapped a five-game losing streak by beating Tennessee, 75-63, last Saturday in the Big 12/SEC Challenge in Fort Worth.

Malique Trent scored 15 points, while Chris Washburn and Brandon Parrish each had 14 points. Washburn had a career-high five assists.

“It had a flow because we were making a lot of shots we had been missing,” TCU coach Trent Johnson told the Fort Worth Star-Telegram.

“That was one of the first times in a long time where the ball went down for us, so that helps our assists.”

On Tuesday, TCU was pounded by Oklahoma, 95-72, in its return to league action in Norman.

In KU’s seven-point win over TCU on Jan. 16, Wayne Selden Jr. led the way with 11 points.

Perry Ellis, Frank Mason III, Graham and Carlton Bragg Jr. each had 10 points.

Ellis had nine rebounds as KU outboarded TCU, 44-37. TCU’s Michael Williams led all scorers with 13 points, while Vlad Brodziansky grabbed 12 rebounds.

“We’ve got to go down there and be physical with those guys. They are a physical team. We’ve got to go out there and compete hard and go out there and try to get a win,” Traylor said. l

More on Greene: Self reiterated Friday that junior Brannen Greene would not be suspended for flushing a meaningless dunk before the final buzzer sounded in Wednesday’s 77-59 home win over Kansas State.

“Yes, he’ll be in uniform. Well, it’s only noon.

We haven’t practiced yet.

That’s a joke. He’ll be in uniform tomorrow, obviously,” Self said.

Self was criticized by radio personality Colin Cowherd on Thursday for calling out Greene publicly after the game.

“I am an emotional guy. I was so upset after the game because

Big 12’s television partners, ESPN and FOX. One of the moves will affect the Kansas University football program.

Originally slated for Saturday, Oct. 1, KU’s Big 12 opener, at Texas Tech, will now be played two days earlier

on Thursday night in Lubbock, Texas.

The Jayhawks’ game with the Red Raiders will follow KU’s first bye week, so the earlier-thanexpected kickoff should not have a negative impact on KU’s preparation for the game.

Kansas University vs. TCU

KU will close out the nonconference portion of its schedule at Memphis on Saturday, Sept. 17 and won’t play again until Sept. 29 at Texas Tech.

Tech will have the same advantage. The Red Raiders close out their noncon schedule at home

against Louisiana Tech and won’t play again until Kansas comes to AT&T Stadium for the Thursday night clash.

A kickoff time and television designation will be announced at a later date.

The Thursday night game will mark the first

time the Jayhawks have played on a Thursday since they hosted Kansas State on Thursday, Oct. 14, 2010.

2 — Maciah Long, 6-2, 230, LB, Houston: At various stages of his recruitment he reportedly heard from schools such as Ohio State, Missouri and UCLA.
