Brownback voids protections for LGBT workers

Brownback

Topeka — Gov. Sam Brownback on Tuesday rescinded an executive order that had been in place since 2007 giving state employees protection from dis-

Civil rights groups call order an ‘outrage,’ ‘shameful’

crimination based on sexual orientation or sexual identity — a move described as outrageous and deplorable by civil rights activists.

In place of that order,

Brownback issued another order that he said “reaffirms the commitment of the State of Kansas to employment practices which do not discriminate based on

race, color, gender, religion, national origin, ancestry or age.”

The civil rights protection was one of nine executive orders originally signed

by Govs. Kathleen Sebelius and Mark Parkinson that Brownback rescinded Tuesday. Most of those Please see LGBT, page 2A

As we previously reported, the owner of Pachamamas had put the building on the market and plans to shut the restaurant down after Valentine’s Day, which is Saturday. Compton told me he has signed a contract to purchase the building and expects to close on the deal by mid-May.

But don’t look for the building to get torn down.

Instead, look for four additional stories to be built atop the existing structure.

A majority of city commissioners are supportive of providing a tax break for the historic Eldridge Hotel to undertake a $12.5 million expansion in downtown Lawrence.

City commissioners at their Tuesday evening meeting stopped short of voting on the project, but a majority of commissioners made it clear they’re ready to approve a 15-year, 95 percent property tax rebate to facilitate an expansion that will add 54 rooms and additional restaurant space to the hotel at Seventh and Massachusetts CITY COMMISSION streets.

“Why would we not want to invest in one of our most historic buildings in downtown?” said City Commissioner Mike Dever.

If commissioners approve the deal, which could happen as early as next week, it would continue a trend of large hotel projects receiving tax breaks in the city. The Eldridge project would be the third since The Oread

Brownback inks budget bill Topeka (ap) — Gov. Sam Brownback has signed a bill closing most of a projected $344 million shortfall in the state’s current budget.

Brownback announced his action Tuesday and said lawmakers worked hard in passing it last week.

The bill mostly diverts

money from highway projects and other special funds to general government spending. The state also is shorting contributions to pensions for teachers and government workers.

Separately, Brownback announced plans last week to cut nearly $45 million in funding for

public schools and higher education.

Kansas also faces an additional shortfall of nearly $600 million in the budget for the next fiscal year, beginning July 1.

The budget problems arose after lawmakers aggressively cut income taxes at Brownback’s urging in 2012 and 2013.

Bill would limit teacher negotiations Topeka (ap) — Negotiations between teachers and school boards may be drastically narrowed as the Kansas Legislature looks for greater efficiency.

The House Education Committee approved a bill Tuesday that would require the two parties to only negotiate salaries and work hours in

LGBT CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A

orders established boards and commissions that Brownback said no longer meet.

“This action by the governor is an outrage,” said Tom Witt, executive director of Equality Kansas, a gay rights and civil rights organization based in Wichita. “Gay, lesbian and transgender state employees across Kansas have trusted they would be safe from discrimination and harassment in their workplace, but Sam Brownback has, by erasing their job protections, declared ‘open season’ on every one of them.”

Brownback’s press secretary, Eileen Hawley, said that when Sebelius signed the original order in 2007, she “unilaterally” established two additional classes of protected citizens.

She said the governor’s order means state employees will only have the same protections that all other Kansas residents have.

“Any such expansion like that should be done by legislation,” Hawley said.

Asked if Brownback is proposing such legislation, Hawley said he is not.

News of Brownback’s action spread quickly, prompting reaction from the Human Rights Campaign, the nation’s largest gay rights advocacy organization.

“This is a dramatic re-

yearly talks. Both sides would have to agree beforehand to discuss any other subject, such as sick leave, insurance or safety.

Associations of teachers, administrators and school boards have criticized the bill, preferring instead a compromise they reached last month.

Under that agreement,

each side could propose five subjects in talks in addition to wages.

A Senate panel conducted a hearing Tuesday on a bill representing the compromise.

Cheryl Semmel of United School Administrators of Kansas said she is hopeful the compromise will have a better chance in the Senate.

versal for Kansas,” said Marty Rouse, national field director for the group. “For eight years, LGBT state employees have been guaranteed nondiscrimination protections and in one foul, reckless and shameful decision, Gov. Brownback has taken the state backward. His deplorable behavior is a direct assault on fairness and equality in the state.”

Doug Bonney, legal director for the American Civil Liberties Union of Kansas, said the practical effect of Brownback’s action is that gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender state employees can now be fired just for that reason.

“Unless you’re protected by a union or some collective bargaining contract that has a ‘just cause’ provision,” Bonney said.

“I think it’s a damn shame,” Bonney said.

“It’s going backwards.

The arc of history was toward greater protection.”

Within moments of the governor’s announcement, Rep. John Carmichael, D-Wichita, asked to introduce a bill in the House Judiciary Committee that would put employment protection for LGBT state workers into statute.

But Rep. Jan Pauls, R-Hutchinson, who opposes extending that protection, said she does not think rescinding the employment protection order puts LGBT state workers at risk.

“I would be sur-

prised if anyone would get fired,” she said.

“Through the years when we’ve had different hearings on those issues, it’s always been discussed in terms of (how) we expect employers in Kansas are fair with their employees, and if people are doing the job, we don’t see that they should be terminated.”

Pauls, a conservative who changed her party affiliation to become a Republican last year, was one of the leading supporters of the state’s 2005 constitutional amendment banning same-sex marriage. She said Tuesday that she thought Gov. Sebelius’ original order in 2007 went too far.

“My concern has always been that we protect certain groups in Kansas from discrimination, and if someone’s not in that group under our state law, I didn’t think they should be included in an executive order.”

But Bonney of the ACLU said it is often the case that expansions of employment protections begin at the executive level, then are later ratified by a legislative body. He cited President Harry Truman’s desegregation of the military as one early example.

“Usually it doesn’t go backwards, but this is a step backwards,” Bonney said.

Prosecutors question Kobach claims of voter fraud

By Roxana Hegeman Associated Press

Wichita — Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach, the architect behind some of the nation’s strictest voter ID requirements, is asking lawmakers to give him the power to press voter fraud charges because he says prosecutors do not pursue cases he refers.

The state’s top federal prosecutor, however, says Kobach has not sent any cases his way. Some county prosecutors say cases that have been re-

ferred did not justify prosecution.

The conservative Republican publicly chastised Kansas-based U.S. Attorney Barry Grissom late last year, telling Topeka television station WIBW he had referred voter fraud cases to Grissom and that Grissom didn’t “know what he’s talking about” when he said voter fraud doesn’t exist in Kansas.

But in a Nov. 6 letter sent from Grissom to Kobach and obtained by The Associated Press through an open records request,

the prosecutor responded that his office received no such referrals from Kobach, and chided the secretary of state for his statements.

“Going forward, if your office de- Kobach termines there has been an act of voter fraud please forward the matter to me for investigation and prosecution,” Grissom wrote. “Until then, so we can avoid misstatements of facts for the future, for the record, we have received no

voter fraud cases from your office in over four and a half years. And, I can assure you, I do know what I’m talking about.”

Grissom told the AP last week that Kobach never replied to his letter.

“We want to uphold the integrity of the voting system and people’s ability to exercise their right and have their voice heard as part of the process,” Grissom said. “And we have the ability, we have the resources, to prosecute

any case in which someone believes there has been any voter fraud or voter misrepresentation.”

Kobach acknowledged in an email to the AP last week that his office never has sent suspected voter fraud cases to Grissom, citing instead what he said was inaction on cases referred by his predecessor.

Grissom said the FBI determined two cases referred before Kobach took office in January 2011 were not voter fraud.

Kobach said last week that his office “felt it would be more productive to re-

fer cases first to Kansas county attorneys rather than sending them first to Mr. Grissom’s office.”

“That is the approach we have taken for the last few years,” he said.

Kobach told lawmakers last month that in the 2010 and 2012 Kansas elections, for which there were 1.7 million registered voters, his office found 18 total cases where someone doublevoted by voting in advance in one state and at the polls in another.

JAMEELAH JONES, a Kansas University graduate student, has been hired by KU Student Senate as its first director of diversity and inclusion.

At the tiny, historically black Southern college where she got her undergraduate degree, Jameelah Jones looked like everyone else.

There was a “level of comfort there and a level of safety,” she said.

Then she came to Kansas University for graduate school. In a sea of 25,000 students — fewer than 5 percent of them

black, according to KU data — Jones said she felt different.

Jones now is in a formal position to help make KU more welcoming for students of color and other underrepresented groups, including LGBT students and students with disabilities.

Jones started this month as KU Student Senate’s director of Diversity and Inclusion.

Student Senate approved creating and funding

the part-time executive staff position in December, following student protests about events in Ferguson, Mo., and amid ongoing efforts at the administrative level to increase diversity at KU. Student Senate has had a multicultural affairs committee and a task force on the status of minority students. It is hoped that Jones will be both a leader and a liaison between students and administration, Student

Body President Morgan Said said.

“I think the university is making its best effort on a large scale to address this issue, but unless there are students on the ground ... I’m not sure that the university can hit its mark,” Said said. “Student voices are vital at a university.”

With the added security, visitors and spectacle of President Barack Obama’s visit to Lawrence last month, local law enforcement departments and emergency services racked up a few bills, officials said.

Obama stayed overnight in Lawrence Jan. 21, and on Jan. 22 he toured a local preschool, met with members of Kansas University’s basketball team and delivered

a speech at KU’s Anschutz Sports Pavilion about initiatives set forth in his State of the Union address. Over his less than 24-hour visit, local law enforcement and emergency services were on hand to assist the Secret Service with protection, at a cost of about $62,250.

At about $172,000, public safety services during the KU men’s basketball 2012 Final Four appearance cost the city almost three times what hosting the nation’s president did, city spokeswoman

Megan Gilliland said, as a point of comparison.

The Douglas County Sheriff’s Office spent about $3,650 in overtime pay to provide security during Obama’s visit, sheriff’s spokesman Lt. Steve Lewis said. Most of the staff used were already scheduled to work, so their costs were not factored in, Lewis said.

In total, 28 sheriff’s deputies were involved with “providing some type of security” during the event, Lewis said.

Bill seeks to control some mental health drug costs

Lawrence-Douglas County Fire Medical spent more than $6,800 for personnel overtime during Obama’s Lawrence stay, Gilliland said. Exempt staff was also used as part of the event, but the city did not incur additional costs for salaried employees.

Topeka — During the first 11 months of 2014, the Kansas Medicaid system spent $24.6 million buying one drug.

Abilify, made by the Maryland-based Otsuka Pharmaceutical Co., is intended to treat symptoms of schizophrenia and manic depressive disorder, and it is the single costliest drug for the state’s Medicaid system.

In fact, of the 10 costliest drugs in the Kansas Medicaid system, eight are used to treat mental disorders, including five that are classified as “atypical antipsychotic” medications, including Abilify, Seroquel and several others.

Since 2002, Kansas law has specifically prohibited the Medicaid program, now known as KanCare, from putting any controls on those drugs such as a preferred drug list that would require patients to try a lower-cost generic equivalent first.

City cost of Obama visit estimated at about $62K

By Caitlin Doornbos

Topeka — Perhaps taking a cue from President Barack Obama, Kansas Democrats on Tuesday unveiled their own “middle class economics” agenda that calls for raising the state minimum wage and requiring state contractors to hire Kansas residents and to pay them union-scale wages.

“What we are proposing today is a plan to help those who have been hurt by the tax plan that the governor put forward,” Senate Minority Leader Anthony Hensley, of Topeka, said, referring to the sweeping tax cuts passed by Gov. Sam Brownback and Republicans in the Legislature.

But the Democrats did not call for repealing any of those tax cuts, which they say are responsible for the state’s burgeoning budget crisis. They did, however, say they will offer proposals next week to reinstate some of the tax breaks for low- and moderate-income people that were repealed under the GOP-backed tax plan.

With an estimated expenditure of about $51,800, Gilliland said, the Lawrence Police Department reported the highest cost of the emergency agencies.

However, the police calculated costs differ- Amyx ently from other agencies, Gilliland said.

While the sheriff and fire department only reported nonexempt staff’s overtime in the cost report, the police department also included vehicle costs, equipment, food, “other related items” and exempt personnel time in its calculations, Gilliland said.

Including exempt and nonexempt employees, the LPD logged 861 hours of personnel time, Gilliland said. Police officers were reassigned from their regular duties, such as patrolling the city, to provide security and support during the visit. “(The police department) calculated their

Jones said she would draw on some of her personal experiences to do that.

Originally from Conyers, Ga., Jones has her undergraduate degree in English from Paine College in Augusta, Ga. At KU, she’s a second-year graduate student in African and African-American studies.

Jones said she was passionate about helping people learn and that African-American studies classes and literature opened her eyes to a particular opportunity.

For Mayor Mike Amyx, the opportunity to host the president was worth the added expenditures.

“It is an incredible honor for a community to host a sitting president,” Amyx said. “The excitement and interest surrounding his visit was incredible. Our community and residents of all ages were engaged in conversations about our economy, our future and the struggles we face on a daily basis.”

Outside law enforcement agencies participated in the presidential motorcade, but Gilliland said the city did not pay for the outof-town officers.

KU spokeswoman Erinn Barcomb-Peterson said that the university is “still waiting on invoices” to determine how much the president’s visit cost the school. She said she was unable to give an estimate without the invoices.

“Some people need to learn about more diverse groups and how to be inclusive,” she said.

Jones said awareness can go a long way toward preventing actions that — even unintentionally — might hurt someone’s feelings.

An example: One day at a campus cafeteria someone came up to Jones, apparently assuming she worked there, and asked her for something.

Jones said she thought it was funny, but after hearing from a number of other black friends that the same thing had happened to them, she thought differently.

“It was one of those experiences that made them feel that they don’t belong here,” she said.

Jones herself found “safe spaces” to plug into at KU, which have helped fice, Lee McGowan, said Kobach never referred a voter fraud case to him, even though the case Kobach sent to the Texas attorney general’s office involved a Shawnee County voter.

But in the face of spiraling costs for those drugs, lawmakers are now considering a bill that would repeal the ban on controlling those drugs, and that has many advocates for the mentally ill worried.

The Senate Public Health and Welfare Committee will hold a hearing on that bill Wednesday.

“We’re certainly opposed to it, and in fact, there are studies that show why it’s a bad idea,” said Dave Johnson, CEO of the Bert Nash Community Mental Health Center in Lawrence.

L awrence J ournal -W orld working on a state project worth $100,000 or more to ensure at least 70 percent of the contracted employees are Kansas residents. l Raising the state minimum wage over the next five years to $11.32 an hour, or roughly 200 percent of the federal poverty level for an individual. l Reinstating the “prevailing wage” law that was repealed in 1987, requiring state contractors to pay the same wages that are paid to other workers in similar occupations. l And a bill that would allow school bus drivers

to collect unemployment compensation during the summer months when they don’t work.

Most of those are bills that Democrats have proposed before, without success.

In addition, Hensley said Democrats will propose reinstating certain tax breaks that were cut or repealed in the tax overhauls of 2012 and 2013. Those include a rebate for sales taxes paid on food, the homestead property tax exemption for renters, and the child care tax credit and reductions in the earned income tax credit.

For one thing, he said, one of the most common controls used in other classes of drugs is to require doctors to get prior authorization from Medicaid administrators before prescribing certain drugs.

“Doctors have to spend an average of 10 to 20 more minutes per patient getting approval for drugs,” he said. “That could cut in half the number of people we can see.”

But almost all other states impose some level of control over mental health drugs in their Medicaid systems, including Oklahoma, which began controlling those drugs in 2010.

“It’s never been our intent for the patients to

not have that access to medication,” said Jennie Melendez, spokeswoman for the Oklahoma Health Care Authority. “But we do have a budget that we have to stay within. If there’s not any efficacy issue or an allergy, we can say let’s try that lower-cost generic first.”

Concerns have also been raised about the “off label” uses of those drugs — that is, prescribing them as treatments for conditions not specifically approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.

Off-label uses are not illegal, although the FDA does advise physicians to be cautious about it and to maintain detailed records of the effect.

There are lots of clubs for under-represented groups at KU, she said, from the Hispanic American Leadership Organization to Spectrum KU (formerly Queers and Allies) to AbleHawks and Allies.

One of Jones’ ideas is creating a roundtable for leaders of those clubs to stay in touch with their issues and identify trends that policies could address.

“There is power in numbers,” she said.

She also wants to develop cultural competency training to help students better understand and include minorities.

Jones said she hopes to work with KU’s Office of

Multicultural Affairs and Office of Diversity and Equity to offer help with their initiatives and keep them abreast of what students are doing.

Blane Harding, Office of Multicultural Affairs director, said he’s already talked to Jones and looks forward to working more with her.

He said the administration needed an informed, go-to student for the issue of diversity on campus.

“Diversity and multiculturalism and social justice are critical components of every college education,” he said, “and for students to create this position I think it really drives that point home.”

Grocery update In other news, Compton said that plans to bring a grocery store to the corner of 11th and Massachusetts streets are progressing well. As we previously reported, owners of the Lawrence-based Checkers grocery store want to open a grocery as part of a multistory building Compton hopes to build at the site of the Allen Press property in downtown.

Compton said his group has been tweaking a few aspects of the design and parking plans for the project after having further meetings with officials from Associated Grocers, the wholesale provider for the grocery store. “Everything is still moving along,� Compton said.

That project, which would be a seven-story building that would include office and apartment uses, must still win several approvals at City Hall.

A group of residents, led by City Commission candidate David Crawford, continue to lobby to have a grocery store project proceed at the former Borders bookstore site at Seventh and New Hampshire streets. My understanding is the group continues to be in discussions with the Michigan-based owners of the building.

The owners of Checkers had tried to strike a deal for that site but couldn’t come to terms with the owners. I’m not sure what the group of citizens has in mind — whether it is lobbying city commissioners to provide some incentives to make the site more palatable to Checkers or whether it is working to bring in a different grocery store company.

If it is incentives, it will be interesting to see how commissioners choose between the two sites. I haven’t timed it officially, but via car, the two sites are probably within 60 to 90 seconds of each other.

KU polls students on sexual harassment, assault KU asks questions such as whether students have been or have known victims of sexual harassment, Kansas University sent its whether it was reported, whether they know it’s third annual climate survey to against KU policy and whether they know where to students Tuesday, an ongoing report it.

effort to gauge the problem of sexual harassment and assault on campus.

In the anonymous online survey, KU asks questions such as whether students have been or have known victims of sexual harassment, whether it was reported, whether they know it’s against KU policy and whether they know where to report it. It also includes open-ended questions about how KU can do better

at handling the issue of sexual harassment.

Title IX, the federal law prohibiting sex-based discrimination in education, requires universities to investigate and prevent sexual harassment, including incidents of sexual violence.

KU undergraduate and graduate students received a link to the online survey via

email. The Office of Institutional Opportunity and Access bought ads and plans to circulate fliers directing students to the survey, and will probably send a reminder email in coming weeks, said Jane McQueeny, executive director of the Office of Institutional Opportunity and Access and KU’s Title IX coordinator.

She said her office also hopes to administer a longer, more in-depth survey in some large classrooms.

McQueeny said she expects to have survey results tallied by the end of March.

She said the minimum goal is to get more responses than last year.

About 900 students took the 2013-2014 survey, according to results previously reported in the Journal-World.

Eleven percent said they had been victims of sexual harassment, including sexual violence, while at KU, but only 2 percent reported it.

Paul Kenneth Showalter Paul Kenneth Showalter passed away on February 10, 2015 at North Pointe Skilled Nursing Care, Paola, Kansas. He was born June 26, 1933, the son of Lee Roy Showalter and Minnie (Hammel) Showalter and raised in Carroll County, Missouri, graduating in 1951 from Stet High School. He participated in sports and musical activities in high school. After graduation he went to Kansas City to work but returned to help his Mother on the farm following the sudden death of his father. He attended Missouri Valley College in Marshall before joining the Navy on March 22, 1953. After boot camp at Great Lakes, Illinois he attended electronic school in Memphis, Tennessee. He was later stationed in China Lake, California before a tour in the Philippines and North Island, San Diego.

Upon discharge he attended the University of Missouri at Columbia.

He worked in Norborne, MO and later at Ford Motor Company in Claycomo. He reenlisted in the Navy in 1961. He was stationed at Olathe Naval Base in Kansas where he recruited and trained Naval Reservists.

He served during the Korea and Viet Nam campaigns, retiring in 1978 with the rank of Senior Chief. He was stationed in Kansas, Louisiana, Michigan, Tennessee, and Virginia.

He flew many training missions, making several trips to deliver supplies to troops in Viet Nam. Although he proudly spent over 23 years in the Navy and flew a great many miles, his sea duty consisted of only 10 days aboard the John F. Kennedy Aircraft Carrier.

After his Navy retirement, he worked for the U. S. Post Office in Lawrence, Kansas, retiring in 2000. He then spent time attending KU basketball games in Lawrence and made a great number of road trips.

He organized

trips for KU games and tournaments. He enjoyed the games but even more the companionship of other fans and players they met along the way.

He married Peggy Joyce Monroe on May 23, 1954 and they celebrated over 60 years of married life.

They were the proud parents of three children, Paula, David and Deirdre. He was a great family man, always eager to help family and friends. He had many talents and whether it was cars, carpentry, electricity, plumbing, gardening or homework, he was always willing to help. He enjoyed working with his children’s Scout troops and was active in church activities in the various places he lived.

He suffered a severe heart attack in 2010, necessitating a more sedate life. He moved to Paola in 2011 to be nearer to children and his doctors.

He was proceeded in death by his parents, brothers Roy Julian and wife, Alice, Emerson and wife Aileen. He is survived by his wife, Peggy, of their home; daughter and husband, Paula Kay and Stephen Gish of Tonganoxie; son David Showalter; and daughter and husband, Deirdre (DeeDee) and Stephen Mars of Paola, his seven beloved grandsons, Morgan Showalter and wife Alyson of Olathe; Michael Showalter of Springfield, Missouri; Cooper Gish and Carter Gish of Tonganoxie, Kansas; Garrett Paul Mars, Skyler Kenneth Mars, and Quintin David Mars and his one and only granddaughter, Camille Alexandra Mars of Paola. He is also survived by his brothers-in-law Marion Gentry and Dan Monroe and several nieces and nephews.

number go down and the second number go up,” McQueeny said.

In a message accompanying the online survey link, Vice Provost for Student Affairs Tammara Durham said KU wants to know students’ concerns.

“In the fall, we engaged in an important conversation regarding sexual violence on our campus,” she wrote. “We need to hear your voice as we move forward with plans and prevention.”

residence. One of the men then pointed a gun at him, Neis-Roberts said, then stood in the doorway of his father’s bedroom.

Next, Neis-Roberts said, he heard the man ask his father, “Where is it?” and a gunshot went off.

When prosecutors asked Neis-Roberts to identify the man with the gun, he pointed at Walker.

The uncle, Wayne Roberts, recalled hearing a loud bang “like a heavy object hitting the floor,” and coming out of his bedroom into the living room, where he said he saw a man standing in his brother’s doorway and holding a gun in the air.

Neis-Roberts and Wayne Roberts said Wayne Roberts rushed to the man, identified as Walker, and struggled with him. Pulling Walker onto the ground, Wayne Roberts said he wrestled a gun away from him, and Howard called police. The two men then ran from the apartment, the witnesses said, joining a third, unidentified man outside.

Minutes later, the witnesses said, police arrived and took Patrick Roberts away by ambulance. He was soon pronounced dead at Lawrence Memorial Hospital, and police questioned the three witnesses.

At the prodding of Walker’s attorney, Sarah Swain, Wayne Roberts admitted to asking police for immunity before speaking with investigators. Swain asked if that was because he was involved in the shooting, but Wayne Roberts said it was because he did not

hotel opened near the Kansas University campus in 2010. City officials also approved tax incentives for the recently-completed Marriott hotel project at Ninth and New Hampshire streets.

Commissioners on Tuesday said they thought the project would produce a good bang for the buck and would be particularly helpful in attracting new visitors to downtown.

Commissioners said they also were swayed by numbers from the development group that showed the hotel project would be expected to turn only a $30,000 profit after 15 years if it received no incentives from the city.

The report estimated with the requested incentives, the project would produce about a $2 million profit over a 15-year period, which developers noted was only about 1.4 percent return on their estimated $12.5 million investment. The incentive package, which includes an exemption on sales tax for construction materials, is expected to have a total value of about $2.4 million, according to a city report.

“The incentives are critical because it is not an easy deal to make work,” said David Longhurst, a member of the Lawrence-based development group.

Commissioners said they also were leaning toward approving the deal

want to get in trouble with police for knowing about his brother’s marijuana business. Wayne Roberts said investigators did not check for gunshot residue on his hands.

Lawrence police arrested Walker and co-defendant Archie Robinson less than two hours after the shooting about a halfmile from the crime scene, according to law enforcement. Lawrence Police Detective Lance Flachsbarth noted that the amount of time taken to make arrests in the shooting was “a rare circumstance where both Walker and Robinson were taken into custody about an hour and 10 minutes after the shooting.”

Flachsbarth said he interviewed Walker’s co-defendant Archie Robinson after his arrest and noticed blood spatters on Robinson’s clothing. Flachsbarth showed jurors bloodstained khaki pants, gray socks and two white Tshirts and said he collected the clothing from Robinson at the time of his arrest.

On Swain’s inquiry, Flachsbarth said he did not swab Robinson’s hands for gunshot residue to check if his hands had been in contact with an iron weapon. Flachsbarth said the police department no longer uses residue tests and that the last one he’d done was about five to seven years ago.

“Once that powder lands on somebody it dissipates very quickly,” Flachsbarth said. “Really no place around here still does (gunshot residue tests).”

No one has testified on whether Walker’s hands were swabbed.

The trial will resume this morning and is expected to last through Friday. because the project would develop the long vacant lot that sits just south of The Eldridge. That lot produces only about $4,000 a year in taxes for the city. Using the Neighborhood Revitalization Act, the city would be assured of receiving the existing property taxes in the future. The 95 percent rebate only would be applied to the new development.

Commissioners stopped short of approving the incentives package on Tuesday because Mayor Mike Amyx said he wanted an additional week to examine the project. Commissioner Bob Schumm recused himself from the discussion because he owns commercial real estate near The Eldridge. The other commissioners expressed support for the proposal.

Amyx said he wanted staff to do further research on whether a 10-year tax rebate would be feasible.

In other news, commissioners agreed to send a letter to Kansas Gov. Sam Brownback protesting his decision to rescind an executive order that provided protection against discrimination of state employees who are gay, lesbian, bisexual or transgender. Commissioners directed City Manager David Corliss to craft a letter that the mayor would sign.

“It is unfathomable stupidity out of Topeka, once again,” said City Commissioner Jeremy Farmer, who suggested the city send the letter.

Iran nuclear pact looks doubtful

EDITORIALS

Risky plan The state’s retirement fund already is in trouble, but pursuing a risky pension bond strategy could make things worse for the fund and the state as a whole.

T

he financial problems of the Kansas Public Employees Retirement System have been growing for years under a number of governors.

This situation may not be entirely of Gov. Sam Brownback’s making, but he certainly can make it worse.

The governor already has taken one step in that direction by withholding $58 million that the state was supposed to contribute to KPERS over the next six months and using that money to help balance the current year’s budget.

Now, Brownback is pushing a risky plan that calls for issuing $1.5 billion in bonds and investing that money with the assumption that the state will make more money on those investments than it pays out in interest on the bonds.

The governor’s proposal is to sell the bonds for a term of 30 years at an interest rate not to exceed 5 percent. State officials estimate they can get a return of 8 percent on the money they invest and use that money to pay down KPERS’ longterm funding gap of about $9 billion.

If the earning estimates the governor is using pan out, this plan might work, but a lot can happen in the 30 years the state would be committed to this strategy.

The state already is experimenting with this strategy, having issued $500 million in pension bonds in 2004. The state issues those bonds at 5.39 percent and has earned, on average, 7.45 percent on investment, which is below the estimates the governor is using now. According to its website KPERS’ return on investment for the 10 years ending on Dec. 31, 2013 was 7.8 percent. That percentage was pulled down considerably by a loss of 19.4 percent in 2009 during the Great Recession.

The governor’s plan to use bonds to shore up KPERS drew the attention last week of the Wall Street Journal, which noted that most states are avoiding pension bonds because of the risks they pose. Such debt offerings can be seen as a “sign of distress,” it said, as illustrated by the states of California, New Jersey and Illinois, which are among the largest issuers of the bonds and also among the states with the lowest credit ratings.

Kansas’ credit rating has been lowered by two rating agencies within the last year, which may make it necessary to offer a higher interest rate on the pension bonds — and any other state bonds issued for highways or other projects.

That problem could be worsened if the sale of pension bonds further erodes confidence in the state’s fiscal stability.

Alicia Munnell, director of the Center for Retirement Research at Boston College, told the Wall Street Journal that pension bonds “can be used beneficially in some situations, but they are often inappropriately used by the desperate and irresponsible.”

Does the state of Kansas fall into one or both of those categories? We certainly hope not, but the plan to use pension bonds is a risky strategy. Rather than placing the state’s finances in additional peril, the governor and state legislators should be looking at more responsible ways to meet the fiscal needs of the state and its retirees.

Munich — Sitting next to Iran’s foreign minister on Sunday as he said that another extension of the nuclear talks isn’t “in the interests of anybody,” it seemed clear that this particular can isn’t going to get kicked down the road much farther.

The likelihood that the Iran negotiations are reaching a make-or-break point was reinforced by President Obama on Monday when he told reporters: “I don’t see a further extension being useful” if the Iranians don’t agree by late March to a framework that shows the world “that they’re not pursuing a nuclear weapon.”

The seeming impasse raises an unpleasant but essential question: What should the United States and Iran do if the talks fail? My answer would be that, at least initially, both sides would be wise to do nothing. It’s like a labor negotiation where both parties conclude that it’s in their interest to keep working by the old rules even after a contract has expired.

Pessimism about the negotiations is growing because the two sides seem far apart on key issues. Take the question of sanctions relief: Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif said Sunday that sanctions are a “liability” that should be removed quickly if there’s a deal. But American negotiators have insisted that sanctions will be removed gradually, in a phased process, as Iran shows that it is abiding

“

But that doesn’t mean it’s a good time to go to battle stations in a confrontation that could lead to another Middle East war.” by the terms of the overall agreement. When the two sides are so far apart on this basic issue, it’s hard to see how they will get to yes.

I had a close-up view of Zarif’s diplomatic skills when I moderated a 30-minute public conversation with him at the Munich Security Conference. He parried questions about key bargaining issues, arguing that he didn’t want to negotiate in public. He didn’t dispute that he’s a target for hardliners who oppose any concessions to the U.S. That raises another delicate question for Washington if talks break down: How to avoid collapsing the authority of President Hassan Rouhani, who has favored negotiations, and reinforcing Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei’s suspicion that the talks were just a U.S. trick.

It’s clear that there will be political pressure in Washington and Tehran for punitive actions if the negotiations end. Congress is already discussing imposing more sanctions, and defiant hardliners in Tehran will probably urge an expansion of the nuclear program. But both sides should be careful about taking unilateral actions that blow up the status quo.

One reason to wait for the other side’s move is to avoid being an easy target in the blame game that’s sure to come after an impasse.

Iran will want to claim that it was the aggrieved party, and that its generous concessions were spurned. The U.S. could counter that Iran never agreed to a formula for guaranteeing that its nuclear program is for civilian use only.

In this finger-pointing, any new U.S. sanctions could make Iran look like the victim; an Iranian push to resume large-scale enrichment would reinforce the case that Iran is pushing toward making a nuclear weapon. In such a public-opinion battle, each side might be better served initially by a “wait and see” approach that preserves options.

You can even imagine a legislative balance of terror: Congress could vote to adopt harsh new sanctions if Iran resumed aggressive enrichment of uranium; the Iranian parliament could similarly vote to abandon limits on its enrichment ac-

tivities if new sanctions are enacted. Swords would be drawn, but not blood ... yet.

What would a collapse of the talks mean for a Middle East that is already wildly unstable? Iranians seem convinced that with the rise of the terrorist Islamic State, the U.S. needs Iran’s help in Iraq. But the counterargument could also be made: Iran has chaos on its borders; a rupture in the talks would leave it fighting multiple enemies, with no reliable allies.

Iran must also reckon with the dangerous prospect that Saudi Arabia, Egypt and perhaps Turkey would begin their own bomb-making programs, in a post-negotiation world.

And if the talks should succeed? I asked Zarif whether Iran might join Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Russia and the U.S. in seeking a framework for resolving the region’s catastrophic sectarian disputes. Zarif embraced the idea.

Is the moment ripe for a deal with Iran? After last weekend, I’m more doubtful. But that doesn’t mean it’s a good time to go to battle stations in a confrontation that could lead to another Middle East war. Not when Iran is isolated internationally and embattled in its neighborhood — and needs an agreement more than its leaders seem to realize.

Tax policies damage Kansas As a faculty member who has been active in various community and statewide activities as well as teaching several thousand students during the past 20 years at Kansas University, I find myself watching what is going on in Topeka in the past few weeks with a mixture of horror and profound sadness. I moved to Kansas in 1994 because I was impressed with KU and with the state. Kansas was the state of William Allen White, where the fight against slavery was begun and where United States history was forever changed because of Brown v. Board of Education.

Kansas, in my eyes, was a place known for its progressive conservatism, the home of Alf Landon and Bob Dole, and for its neighborliness. I thought Kansans cared about each other. I thought “this is a great place to live and work.”

But now, as I watch and listen to the Kansas Legislature in its daily actions, I just shake my head and ask “what happened to the state to which I moved 20 years ago.”

It seems to me that those who make our laws these days have lost all sense of proportion and concern for their state and for many of their fellow Kansans. What they do and what they say is just unfathomable to me.

I believe that the facts have shown that the tax cuts now in effect and scheduled to go into effect are failing to pro-

Mike Hoeflich

“

If the governor and the Legislature act responsibly, with the best interests of all Kansans, both present and future, in mind, the crisis can be lessened even if not avoided.”

duce the positive economic benefits promised and have caused a state budget crisis of unprecedented proportions.

I applaud Gov. Brownback and those members of the Legislature who agree with him for admitting that the cuts must be slowed if our state is not to be ruined. I cannot understand those members of the Legislature who deny that reality or think that further cuts to state services will not have devastating effects on the people of Kansas.

Who will want to move to Kansas to start a business when the roads are impassable, when criminals roam the streets because the courts are on furlough and the prisons are unable to house those

sentenced to incarceration?

Who will want to bring their children to Kansas when the schools are unable to educate them because of massive underfunding and when the public universities are forced to raise their tuition to a level matching private schools in order to keep functioning? As someone who made the decision to come to Kansas 20 years ago, I can say from personal knowledge that I would not have come if the Kansas of 1994 had been like the Kansas of 2015.

It is not too late to save this state. If the governor and the Legislature act responsibly, with the best interests of all Kansans, both present and future, in mind, the crisis can be lessened even if not avoided. I think that the realities of the current political situation mean that those cuts that have already been implemented will not be reversed.

But if the Legislature follows the governor’s plan and at least slows down future cuts and considers other ways of increasing revenues, there may be some hope. However, if the majority decides that they will continue to “slice and dice” state government as they have been doing for so long, then disaster will surely follow.

— Mike Hoeflich, a distinguished professor in the Kansas University School of Law, writes a regular column for the JournalWorld.

To the editor: This is a reply to Miss Jinkens letter of Feb. 7. Her comments were totally illogical, ridiculous and outright fabrications. She links sex education in school to abortions and particularly Planned Parenthood. This idea is ludicrous. The whole purpose of sex education in schools is to enlighten young adults to make smart decisions when it comes to sex and thereby eliminate the need for an abortion.

Let’s face it, teens are very sexually motivated and need to know about contraceptive devices if they do choose to have sexual relations. I went to a Christian school and was deprived of this information and later really regretted it. Miss Jinkens infers Planned Parenthood profits from their support of sex education. Here are a few facts for you. Nationwide, abortions account for 3 percent of total Planned Parenthood services. Only 10 percent of Planned Parenthood clients receive abortions. By law, no federal funding may be used for abortions. Also, 97 percent of Planned Parenthood services were used for testing and treating sexually transmitted disease, cancer screenings and distributing contraceptives.

Most parents I have talked to favor sex education in school and feel it is crucial to a well-rounded education.

People that oppose sex education and birth control also seem to be against paying taxes for welfare. It’s a typical conservative opinion: Let’s bring every embryo to term but after that they are on their own, don’t bother me for financial help! What hypocrisy!

New York — The price of oil is on a wild ride, and there is little agreement on where it’s headed.

After falling nearly 60 percent from a peak last June, the price of oil has now bounced back 19 percent since late January, closing Monday near $53.

Oil has fallen or risen by 3 percent or more on 14 of 26 trading days so far this year. By comparison, the stock market hasn’t had a move that big in more than three years.

Predicting prices is especially tricky now because the oil market has never quite looked like this. Oil price collapses of the past were triggered either by plummeting demand or an increase in supplies. This latest one had both. Production in the U.S. and elsewhere has been rising, while slower economic growth in China and weak economies in Europe and Japan means demand for oil isn’t growing as much as expected.

drilling for oil fell to 1,140 last week, down 29 percent from a record high of 1,609 in October.

As recent trading shows, any sign of reduced production inspires traders to buy oil, and every new sign of rising supplies sends prices lower. Price forecasts for the next year range from $20 a barrel to $75.

“There are many more laps to come on this roller coaster,” said Judith Dwarkin, chief economist at ITG Investment Research.

As oil bounces up and down, so will the price of gasoline, diesel and other fuels. Almost no one expects a return to the very high prices of the last four years, so drivers and shippers will continue to pay lower prices. It’s a question of how much less, and for how long.

Oil will fall Others say oil production is still rising and demand isn’t yet catching up — a recipe for lower oil prices.

The oil bears argue that there are plenty of rigs still working, and they are now focused only on the most prolific spots. Also, oil services companies are charging significantly less for equipment and expertise. This means oil companies may be able to keep oil supplies rising from already high levels despite low prices.

Oil will rise Those expecting a quick and lasting price jump see mounting evidence that drillers in the U.S. are pulling back fast because they’re no longer making money. A closely-watched survey by the oil services company Baker Hughes shows that the number of rigs actively

Oil will stay the same After its recent rise, some think oil may already be close to finding its level.

The International Energy Agency said in a report Tuesday that prices will stabilize in a range “higher than recent lows but substantially below the highs of the last three years.”

Alexander provides spark inside for KU

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Lubbock, Texas — Cliff Alexander’s well-publicized “motor” was revving too fast during the first minute-anda-half of Tuesday’s Kansas University-Texas Tech basketball game in United Supermarkets Arena.

“I was a little bit too excited,” KU’s 6-foot-8,

240-pound freshman power forward said after scoring 10 points off 4-of-5 shooting, grabbing five rebounds and blocking four shots while playing 20 minutes in the Jayhawks’ 73-51 victory over the Red Raiders.

Free State boys hold off Indians

By Bobby Nightengale bnightengale@ljworld.com

When the final seconds were ticking off of the clock on Tuesday, Free State High boys basketball players started jumping up and down and pumping their fists.

After a few close losses last month, the Firebirds weren’t going to let go of their fourth-quarter lead against Shawnee Mission North. Behind a career-

Low post key for Kansas Lubbock, Texas — Nobody has to tell this season’s Kansas University basketball team to make itself comfortable. It needs no help with that. Make a few threes, build a double-digit lead, and let it amount to the equivalent of a little something to take the edge off the moment.

Then the other team catches up, which is usually what happens when one team plays with a sense of urgency and the other does not.

Thanks to a terrific second half, Kansas got away

that could have had a greater impact against a more competitive opponent.

Obviously, winning a Big 12 basketball game by such a wide margin requires doing many things well, and Kansas certainly did. For one, the Jayhawks again drained three-pointers at a high rate of accuracy (55 percent).

They also defended pretty well and moved the ball with great efficiency in the second half.

LHS boys find range, rip SMNW

By Chris Duderstadt cduderstadt@ljworld.com

After starting out 0-for-5 from three-point range, it appeared it might be a struggle for Lawrence High’s boys basketball team to fend off Shawnee Mission Northwest on Tuesday at LHS. But the Lions quickly snapped out of the funk by draining six consecutive shots from long range and went on to claim a 64-48 victory over the Cougars.

Senior Anthony Bonner and junior Anthony Harvey made back-to-back triples to close out the first quarter before senior Ben Rajewski caught fire to start the second. Rajewski nailed three straight trifectas, including one in which he was fouled for a four-point play.

Women’s Basketball Time Net

Englewood, Colo. (ap) — New offensive coordinator Rick Dennison says the Denver Broncos are in “no rush” to get an answer from Peyton Manning about his plans for 2015.

Manning is mulling his future following a late-season slide and thigh injury that culminated with a poor performance in the playoffs.

Dennison said he doesn’t necessarily have to wait for an answer from Manning to start drawing up his offensive blueprints.

“We’re going to see what we do best, see what our team ends up with, there’s certainly no rush,” Dennison said. “He deserved to take his time and figure out what he wants to do because he’s a phenomenal player.”

After saying on Christmas Eve that he intended to return in 2015, Manning backtracked after Denver’s 24-13 loss to Indianapolis in the playoffs last month, saying he had to think things over. General manager John Elway asked him not to make a rash decision.

Manning is expected to meet with Elway, team president and CEO Joe Ellis and new coach Gary Kubiak before the Broncos contingent heads to the NFL scouting combine next week.

Manning, who is due $19 million next season, has to have a checkup on his surgically repaired neck at least 10 days before the start of the new league year, which is March 10.

Manning said in Phoenix last month that he expects to pass his physical.

“I don’t see that physical being that significant to tell you the truth as far as the revelation out of that,” Manning said after accepting the Bart Starr award.

IN THIS NOV. 7 FILE PHOTO, CLEVELAND CAVALIERS FORWARDS LEBRON JAMES, LEFT, AND KEVIN LOVE joke with each other on the bench in the fourth quarter of the Cavaliers’ 110-101 victory over the Nuggets in Denver. James is choosing not to clarify any posts he made in recent days on Twitter, including a message that seemed to be aimed at teammate Kevin Love.

Love says he has ‘no problem’ with LeBron Independence, Ohio — LeBron James felt no need to clarify any remarks or tweets he has made in recent days, and Kevin Love insisted on Tuesday there was no problem between the two stars.

“I was caught off-guard when I heard about it,” Love said. “We’re teammates, we see each other, there’s no problem with us.”

James tweeted late Saturday night people shouldn’t worry so much about “fitting out” and instead should try to “fit in” and be part of something special. It was strikingly similar to a comment Love made in October when his teammates were encouraging him to “fit out” and be himself rather than trying to fit in.

James told a small pack of reporters after Sunday’s game “it’s not a coincidence, man,” between his tweet and Love’s remarks, then James took to Twitter on Monday and blamed the media for making a story that didn’t exist.

James said Tuesday he responded on Twitter because he saw a headline on SportsCenter Monday indicating a feud between he and Kevin Love.

“I’m not sugarcoating or hiding behind it,” James said. “I gotta see him every day, so if I have something to say to him, I’ll say it to his face. The rest of the guys, too. … I would hope they would come to me as well.”

Love was asked directly if he felt James’ tweet was attributed to him and his October comments.

“I don’t know. I truly feel if LeBron had a problem with me or had to talk to me for good or worse, he would’ve come up and talked to me,” Love said. “I truly believe that.”

Wade out of All-Star Game Miami — Dwyane Wade will not play in Sunday’s NBA All-Star Game.

The Miami Heat guard and 11-time All-Star selection made the announcement Tuesday.

His replacement for the game at Madison Square Garden will be selected by NBA Commissioner Adam Silver.

Wade has been recovering from a strained right hamstring. That injury has kept him out of Miami’s last six games, and will keep him sidelined when the Heat finish their pre-All-Star schedule in Cleveland tonight.

Wade has not played since Jan. 27. Miami’s first game after the All-Star break is Feb. 20, at New York.

Wade is a three-time NBA champion, had appeared in the last 10 All-Star Games and was the game’s MVP in 2010. He will still go to New York this weekend for some off-court events.

LAWRENCE HIGH’S Rebecca Finley tries to wrestle the ball away from Shawnee Mission Northwest’s Tatum Graves on Tuesday night at LHS.

Northwest nudges Lions’ girls

By Chris Duderstadt cduderstadt@ljworld.com

The first game against his former team was a rough one for Lawrence High girls basketball coach Jeff Dickson, as the Lions fell to Shawnee Mission Northwest, 5028, Tuesday at LHS. Lawrence High found itself in a 13-0 hole after the first four minutes and 17 seconds and could not fully recover.

“We’ve had stretches throughout the season where we’ve been very tentative against topnotch teams like Shawnee Mission Northwest,” Dickson said.

“Even though we came out and I thought we played OK defense early, our offense wasn’t great.”

Senior Marissa Pope ended the Lions’ scoreless drought with a free throw, and sophomore Skylar Drum drove to the basket for Lawrence’s first field goal late in the first quarter. The Lions clawed back in the second quarter as they shook away some of their nerves from the first eight minutes to cut the deficit to 26-16 at halftime.

Junior Alexis Boyd battled down low with the Cougars’ bigs and scored six of her team-high nine points in the first half.

Boyd’s points did not come easily, as the Cougars had a rotation of four players in the front court who were 6 feet or taller.

The Lions (3-12) will host Olathe Northwest on Friday.

Free State High’s girls basketball team wasn’t expecting to see Shawnee Mission North hold the ball for long possessions on Tuesday, forcing the Firebirds to play defense for minutes at a time.

But once the Firebirds adjusted, they couldn’t be slowed down any longer in a 52-20 victory at FSHS. After scoring just six points in the first quarter, getting only nine possessions on offense, the Firebirds scored on

five straight possessions midway through the second quarter for a 15-2 lead.

The big change was Free State (12-3, ranked No. 7 in Class 6A) moved sophomore Madison Piper, the second-leading scorer in the Sunflower League, into the post, where she had more room to pass.

Piper dished assists in the second quarter to senior forward Sarah Coversup and senior forward Hannah Shoemaker for open layups, while Coversup added a putback for a bucket, and senior

forward Adriana Jadlow Jadlow, Shoemaker, Piper added points at the free- and junior guard Hannah Walter for a 10-3 run. throw line.

“None of us have to come out and score 20, 30 points a night,” Morgan said. “It’s just doing the little things … It’s just playing hard, which the whole team does, and the result showed for itself.”

LHS improved to 14-1 and a perfect 7-0 in the Sunflower League.

to take away those two,” LHS coach Mike Lewis said, “we’ve got everybody else ready to play ball.”

Lewis said the Lions’ physical defense was a key part to the team’s eighth double-digit win of the season. The Lions had eight steals and five blocked shots to help shut down SMNW. Junior Price Morgan had two steals and blocks

so it just all came together,” Rajewski said.

Rajewski knocked down five of his seven three-point attempts and led all scorers with 18 points.

Shawnee Mission Northwest head coach Mike Rose yelled, “Find him! Find him!” after Rajewski drained a threepointer in the third quarter, but the Cougars could not account for the Lions’ hot-shooting guard. The Cougars clamped down on Bonner and junior Justin Roberts by faceguarding them for the majority of the contest, but it allowed Rajewski and the rest of the Lions to have open shots.

“That’s the advantage we have that if they try

“We made just enough plays,” FSHS coach Chuck Law said. “The best part for me after they cut that lead to four … we really responded.

We could’ve let that thing slip through our fingers.

We did against Aquinas in kind of a similar situation. But we finished tonight. That’s a mark of a team that’s making some progress.”

After the Indians tied the score early in the third quarter, the Firebirds went on a 16-5 run to push their lead into double digits. They scored on six of nine possessions, with two threes from 6-foot-5 sophomore Sloan Thomsen and two more triples by Hack and junior Hunter Gudde.

Sophomore Jay Dineen also added a layup, outracing the Indians down the court on a fast break.

Early in the fourth quarter, Hack scored

FREE STATE’S HUNTER GUDDE (30) draws a foul from Shawnee Mission North’s Michael Weathers on Tuesday night at FSHS. seven straight points in a 46-second stretch.

Hack, who scored a previous career-high 28 points on Friday, went 12-for-13 at the free-throw line and shot 8-for-13 from the field. He also added eight rebounds, five assists and three steals.

“After the Olathe East and Lansing games (at the end of January), I was really struggling offensively,” Hack said. “I sort of just sat down and thought to myself, ‘I have to go out every single game and have the mind-set

apiece while adding 11 points and four rebounds.

“He gives us so many intangible things and then the statistical things, he is good in a number of ways for us,” Lewis said.

“That’s typical Price Morgan. He chips away and does what he needs to do to help our team win.”

The 6-foot 4-inch Morgan gave up some size to SMNW forwards Austin Sanders and Jacob Stein-

that I’m the best player on the floor.’ That’s what I’ve been trying to do.”

SM North junior Michael Weathers did his best to help the Indians rally in the fourth quarter, scoring 12 of his team-high 27 points in the period.

The quick 6-foot-1 guard was a focus for the Firebirds all night, drawing a face-guard from FSHS senior Andrew Keating in the first quarter before Free State went to a zone.

However, Weathers fouled out with two minutes left when Gudde drew a charge in a threepoint game. His twin brother, Marcus, scored 15 points, and he fouled out about a minute beforehand.

“I think Michael Weathers might be the best player in the league,” Hack said. “Fortunately we were able to get him in some foul trouble. We talked about that before the game. That was a big key.”

In Monday’s practice, to prepare for SM North’s speed and athleticism, the Firebirds put seven or

eight players on the court against their offense.

“That was fun,” said senior forward Jack Raney, who scored nine points.

“We just basically had the five offensive players, and then the rest of the team was playing defense. We just worked the ball around and worked on their double-teams.”

The extra practice against a full-court press helped the Firebirds climb back from a few early deficits for a 29-27 lead at halftime and eventually their first three-game winning streak of the season.

KANSAS 73, TEXAS TECH 51

KANSAS GUARD WAYNE SELDEN JR. DRIVES TO THE BUCKET during the first half.

Tech’s Odiase ‘outstanding’

By Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

Lubbock, Texas — Cliff Alexander started for the second time this season Tuesday night, but he was only the second-best freshman center in the game.

Texas Tech’s Norense Odiase, who has a much bigger body than Alexander, used it to total 13 points and eight rebounds in 27 minutes.

Alexander contributed 10 points, five rebounds and four blocked shots in 20 minutes.

“I thought Norense Odiase played really well, and I thought he got the best of Cliff tonight,” Kansas coach Bill Self said.

Said Texas Tech coach Tubby Smith said of Odiase: “He was outstanding.

I was very impressed. He was one of three guys who belonged on the

same court as Kansas.

He and Zach (Smith) and Keenan (Evans).”

Told that Self said that he thought Odiase outplayed Alexander, Smith used the question as a teaching moment: “He played well tonight.

He did do a good job.

Whether he outplayed anybody, it’s usually us against them, not one guy against another.

Norense does play with that edge. He plays that way.”

Odiase wasn’t doing backflips about outplaying Alexander, either.

“It’s always good to win a battle, especially in the paint, or just play harder than your opponent,” said Odiase, a native of Fort Worth who stands 6-foot9 and weighs 270 pounds.

“I just wish that it resulted in a win.”

touched the ball in the paint.

He gunned one pass over Kelly Oubre Jr.’s head into the stands in the corner and heaved another pass out of play near midcourt.

“The trap kind of surprised me,” said Alexander, who coach Bill Self said was a bit “nervous” in making his second start of the season, first since a Dec. 22 game against Temple.

“I didn’t know there was a trap coming. It kind of shook me a little bit,” added Alexander, who has been challenged by Self to play with a motor after various games during the Chicagoan’s freshman campaign.

Alexander played so well after the early snafus that KU’s coach was able to joke about the overthrows after the game.

The No. 8 Jayhawks improved to 20-4 overall, 9-2 in the Big 12, while Tech fell to 12-13, 2-10.

“I think Cliff’s first two passes ... if fans in the 10th row weren’t alert, maybe

KANSAS FORWARD PERRY ELLIS, LEFT, and guard Frank Mason III chase a possession. he coulda hurt somebody,” Self said, smiling.

“Nobody’s going to accuse him of being Bill Walton passing the ball out of the post. We didn’t do particularly well the first half as far as taking care of the ball (six turnovers, 14 for game). I do think traps bothered us in the post.”

Alexander started in place of Jamari Traylor (no points, two boards, one block, one steal, 19 minutes), who had opened the last 12 games.

“It was probably a combination of reasons,” Self said of the switch in the wake of Saturday’s loss at Oklahoma State. “We needed to do something different, in my opinion, so that’s basically it.

We’ve won games playing small, playing Jamari at the 4. I’m not saying it couldn’t happen that way again. I think over time we’ve won games so we haven’t switched. The bottom line is, we need more inside presence for us to have a chance to have a really good season, I believe.”

Alexander’s four blocks tied a career high. He also had four against Michigan State.

“I am a rim protector.

That’s what they need me to do, protect the rim,” said Alexander, who aggravated his bruised sternum injury after getting hit during the game. He has had the chest discomfort the past two weeks after taking an elbow

from Landen Lucas (three points, three boards, 11 minutes) in practice.

“Our guards kept getting beat. I just needed to protect the rim, play my role.”

He said he found out he was starting, “After the Oklahoma State game.

Coach just said he wanted to put me in the starting lineup tonight. I had to come out and play aggressive like I usually play.”

Of Alexander’s play, Self said: “I thought he played fine. I won’t get too excited. He made some easy shots, got a couple dunks.

He was active. He has to a better job rebounding the ball and guarding his man. I thought the guy he was guarding, Odiase (Norense, 13 points, eight boards) played well and got the best of Cliff tonight.”

Wayne Selden Jr. hit four of seven threes and scored a game-high 16 points on a night the Jayhawks cashed 11 of 20 from beyond the arc. Perry Ellis scored 14 points, 12 the second half, and now is three shy of 1,000 for his KU career. Brannen Greene hit two second-half threes and had 10 points.

“I think we responded very well (to OSU loss),” Alexander said. “We

struggled in the first half, picked it up in the second half. Wayne hit some big shots. Perry stepped up.”

KU, which led 27-22 at the break thanks to five straight points by Selden, hit 72.7 percent of its second-half shots in scoring 46 points. KU finished shooting 53.1 percent for the game to Tech’s 33.3 mark.

“If you are going to shoot ’em, it’s obviously better making as many as you can,” Self said of threes, which he also referred to as “fool’s gold” in terms of how many KU has been hitting lately.

Freshman Sviatoslav Mykhailiuk, who had played three minutes in the last six games, was 0-for-2 from three with a steal and turnover in nine minutes.

“He was OK. He did fine,” Self said. “They blocked three shots. They were all threes in the first half (including one of Svi’s knocked into the stands).

What that tells me is, if they are blocking threes, you are not open. They got Kelly, Wayne and Svi. He did fine. He needs to get extended minutes. We hadn’t had a chance to really do that with him as much as we’d liked.”

NOTEBOOK

NBA Jayhawks plan to visit

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Lubbock, Texas — Kansas University usually has some special guests in the Allen Fieldhouse stands for games on the Saturday of NBA All-Star weekend.

It will be no different Saturday when KU plays host to Baylor in a noon tipoff.

So far, Nick Collison of the Oklahoma City Thunder and Ben McLemore of the Sacramento Kings have asked for tickets, KU officials indicated.

There could, and likely will be, more Jayhawks in the NBA requesting seats as the week progresses.

Husband suspicious of woman’s old friend Dear Annie: I have been married to my husband for 10 years.

A couple of years ago, I started conversing via Facebook with “Kevin,” whom I have known since grade school. We briefly dated in high school, but I broke up with him.

A mutual friend passed away, and I called Kevin a few times to offer support.

We spoke about the old days and our fellow schoolmates. I also shared photographs of myself and my home and a few personal thoughts. Kevin gave me constant compliments.

My husband found the text messages and pictures on my phone.

There was nothing flirtatious, although Kevin had mentioned that his girlfriend only made time for sex when he

Annie’s Mailbox

Marcy Sugar and Kathy Mitchell

was flush with cash.

My husband has blown the whole thing out of proportion and has accused me of cheating. He made a similar accusation when I went to visit my mother back home. He says it’s cheating if a woman talks to another man on the phone when her husband isn’t home.

I don’t feel as though I cheated in any form, but now all my husband does is accuse me.

I didn’t want Kevin

Spy shows shed light on real events “The Americans” (9 p.m., FX) may have been cloned, but it keeps getting better. NBC’s “Allegiance” owes much to this series, but departs from its strengths in all the wrong ways. ‘‘The Americans” is at its most thoughtful when it explores the ways that Elizabeth and Philip’s peculiar line of work affects their family life. The Kremlin’s insistence that these two 1980s spies recruit their own daughter, Paige, to the cause continues to divide the couple.

In contrast, “Allegiance” sets up the son (Gavin Stenhouse) of Russian sleeper agents (Hope Davis and Scott Cohen) as a super-savant CIA agent. Like a gazillion detectives and sleuths from “Monk” to “Sherlock” to “Backstrom,” he can solve a problem with just one look. Or even a casual sniff.

It adds a level of the incredible to an already preposterous situation.

Both series offer interesting reflections on real events, past and present. Set in 2015, “Allegiance” treats Vladimir Putin’s Russia as a strategic threat, capable of anything. It’s fascinating to think how far we’ve come, or rather, how far NBC has come, since just last February, when the network partnered with Putin in broadcasting the spectacle of the Sochi Winter Olympics!

American-Soviet nuclear brinkmanship provides the backdrop for “The Americans,” but we all know that that story is as dated as the Tandy Computers and Buick Skylarks that dot this artfully produced period piece. Not unlike “Homeland,” this FX drama really explores our tangled relationships with our frenemies in the Islamic world.

These are just TV shows. Fiction. But drama has a way of reflecting and influencing real events. And vice versa. Wasn’t it just last week that Jordan’s King Abdullah vowed to destroy ISIS while quoting lines not from the Koran, but from “Unforgiven,” a Clint Eastwood movie?

Tonight’s other highlights O A female impersonator is slain on “The Mysteries of Laura” (7 p.m., NBC).

O Jamal’s sudden ambition surprises some on “Empire” (8 p.m., Fox).

O Role-playing wounds Claire’s ego on “Modern Family” (8 p.m., ABC).

BIRTHDAYS Actor Burt Reynolds is 79.

Rhythm-and-blues singer Otis Clay is 73. Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush is 62. Singer Sheryl Crow is 53. Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin is 51. Actress Jennifer Aniston is 46. Actor Taylor Lautner is 23.

when I was younger, and I don’t want him now. I just want to be friends and talk to him now and then. Can you help? — Ever Faithful Dear Faithful: Your husband seems overly suspicious, but part of the problem is that you were talking to Kevin without his knowledge, and this seemed secretive. If you have nothing to hide, your husband should know when you are talking to Kevin. Right now, we suggest you limit contact with Kevin because he is a sore subject to your husband. Assure your husband that you will be more open, so he has less reason to worry.

Dear Annie: I have a good friend whose company I enjoy immensely. But when we go out to lunch or dinner, he never washes his

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS STARS JACQUELINE BIGAR’S For Wednesday, Feb. 11: This year you will be more aware of your professional status and community role than in past years.

You also will be willing to spend more money on your personal image. Others are drawn to you, sometimes for superficial reasons, which has more to do with them than with you. If you are single, a romantic tie is likely to enter your path this year.

You’ll know when you have met this person. If you are attached, remember that a relationship is a two-way street.

The stars show the kind of day you’ll have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult Aries (March 21-April 19) ++++ Focus your energy on a partnership, and that will ease your anxiety. Tonight: Chat over dinner.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) ++++ You could be pushing others more than you realize. Go for a walk, if need be. Tonight: Just don’t be alone.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) +++ You might want to throw an offer right back in the other person’s face. Tonight: Say “yes” to an older friend.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) ++++ You could see a situation differently from how others see it. Tap into your intuition.

Tonight: Hang out.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) +++ A change in your schedule will be most beneficial in

hands. I’ve mentioned to him that washing his hands prior to eating protects him from picking up germs (even E. coli). Instead, he tells me that not washing his hands builds up resistance to germs. Am I being germaphobic, or is he being irresponsible? — Germ-Free Dear Germ-Free: Hands should be thoroughly washed before eating. Germs from unwashed hands can be transferred to other objects, such as dining room tables, and are then transferred to another person’s hands. Whether or not it boosts his immunity is highly debatable, but it certainly puts others at risk.

Tonight: Opt for some quiet time at home.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) ++++ Tune in to your sixth sense and discover its power. A partner could be touchy. Tonight: Accept an offer.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) ++++ You could be processing a personal matter that is near and dear to you. Tonight: All smiles.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) ++++ Others will be observing your responses to different situations. Tonight: Use your imagination well!

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) +++ Maintain a low profile, and be more of an observer and listener in various situations. Tonight: At home.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) ++++ Maintain your focus, and you will succeed in accomplishing exactly what you want.

Tonight: Zero in on what you want.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) ++++ Many people feel that you are driven, and in many ways you are. Be careful with spending.

No-Bake Double Coconut Brownies, pictured above, and Simple Coconut Macaroons, pictured below

Coconut: Making desserts from nature’s candy

S

lightly sweet with a definitely distinctive flavor, coconut has one of those “love it or hate” it tastes. If you’re one who loves it, there are many ways for you to enjoy the rich, pleasing taste — coconut milk, water, oil, manna, flour, flakes, shreds, sweetened tendrils and palm sugar.

in a food processor. Mix well until the dough sticks together.

Press into a parchment-lined pan. You can use a 8-inch or 9-inch square or circle, or a 7-by-11-inch glass pan. The smaller the pan, the thicker the brownie. Put into the freezer while you make the frosting.

Set the extra 1/2 cup of coconut aside for sprinkling.

Delicious/ Nutritious

Delicious Coconut is like nature’s candy. Versatile and a good way to bring nuance to savory and sweet foods alike, I cook with it often. I use coconut milk in place of water in rice and soup, and often sprinkle a little unsweetened coconut on top of bananas and oranges for a simple kidfriendly dessert.

I am not much of a baker, so I am always looking for ways to make simple treats for my children, beyond opening a box of brownie mix. Coconut affords me an easy way to make a treat with few ingredients and not much expertise. I decided that my simple macaroon recipe is the perfect thing to share because — while it seems like an overly obvious choice — it highlights coconut, is made with basic pantry ingredients and can be whipped up in no time if someone is dropping over for coffee or your children are begging for some sort of

Sarah Henning & Megan Stuke dessert in a dessert desert like my house.

Simple Coconut Macaroons

So simple! They go great with chocolate, and are extra fancy if a little melted chocolate is drizzled on the tops after baking and cooling.

Nutritious

It’s no secret in this space that I love coconut oil. It’s my Ingredients oil of choice in nearly every2 eggs thing I bake. This is for many 12 ounces of coconut reasons: the healthy medium1/2 cup sugar chain fatty acids that com2 tablespoons flour prise it, the high smoke point 1 teaspoon vanilla and the delicious taste.

Drop by large tablespoonfuls But we’ll agree to disagree onto a greased baking sheet on that point. (At least he and bake for 15-18 minutes at doesn’t mind the oil.)

325 F. In the following recipe,

I use coconut in several iterations. Not only in the traditional shredded presentation, but also in its oil and palm sugar forms. The result is a frosted brownie made without refined sugar and topped off with a snowy coating of pure coconut.

No-Bake Double Coconut Brownies Ingredients 1 cup walnuts 1-1/2 cups Medjool dates, pitted 1 cup unsweetened coconut, divided 1/4 cup cocoa powder 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 1/4 teaspoon coconut extract Directions Combine all ingredients except for 1/2 cup of the coconut

For the frosting: 6 tablespoons coconut oil 2 tablespoons maple syrup 2 tablespoons coconut palm sugar 1/4 teaspoon coconut extract 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract Directions In a food processor or a small blender, whip coconut oil until smooth. Add in the maple syrup and extracts and whip until combined. Add the coconut palm sugar and combine again.

To assemble: Remove the pan from the freezer. Spread on the frosting with a spatula.

Immediately cover with the extra 1/2 cup coconut. If you wait too long, the frosting will get too hard and the coconut won’t stick really well. Put it back into the freezer for at least 5 minutes before cutting into bars. Store in the freezer.

Chocolate-dipped shortbread cookies to give to your sweetie

F

or Sweet Husband and I, our love story began young and poor. An art student and a law student, respectively, we both spent long hours at school, often only making it back to our tiny apartment in the wee smalls.

And that apartment was so tiny — just a few chilly rooms in one of those big, subdivided houses near the Kansas University campus.

When we would fight, one of us would retreat into the kitchen and the other into the bedroom, but it didn’t help. We could still see each other no matter how far apart we tried to get.

Thankfully that didn’t happen too much. More often, our challenge was to find ways to surprise each other on our limited budget.

One favorite of those surprises were these chocolate-dipped orange shortbread cookies.

Cooking From Scratch

Meryl Carver-Allmond Tucked into a book bag or left on the counter for a late-night snack, they were a sweet way to say, “I’m thinking of you” without spending the rent money.

Originally, we were buying them from the Merc, but then my dear sister-in-law took the ingredient list and worked us up a recipe. I’ve modified it over the years to use honey and orange juice instead of sugar and orange extract — I like the more mellow sweetness — but the amounts are the same,

Meryl Carver-Allmond/Special to the Journal-World

Chocolate-Dipped Orange Shortbread Cookies so use what you have.

If you want these cookies to be fancier, you can roll out the dough and cut it into heart shapes. (Be sure to dust everything with extra flour because this dough is super sticky.) Alternatively, if you want to skip the chocolate dipping step, feel free to mix in the chocolate chips as the last thing before you put the cookies onto your

fluffy. Beat in the egg yolk, then the milk. Add the flour mixture and beat until the dough comes together in a moist clump.

Drop the dough by generous tablespoonfuls onto your baking sheet, spacing the cookies about 1 inch apart. Using moistened fingertips, flatten each cookie to a 1/2 inch-thick round.

Bake until the bottoms of the cookies are just barely golden, about 8-10 minutes. The tops should still be quite pale. Transfer to a rack to cool.

Meanwhile, melt the chocolate chips in a double boiler. Dip half of each cooled cookie into the melted chocolate and lay it on waxed paper to dry. Store in an airtight container; they’ll keep for about 3 days.
