LEGISLATURE

Lawmaker: No rush on school funding

MEMBERS OF THE MACKEY MERRY MAKERS CLUB, Mary Workman, right, Wilma Reetz and Cathy Wagner laugh while flipping through photo albums and other bits of memorabilia during the group’s monthly meeting Thursday at the home of Wagner, northeast of Lawrence.

The club, which began with members of the Mackey School District, has been meeting regularly since 1941. During Thursday’s meeting, the group celebrated its 75th anniversary with a cake, pictured below.

Topeka — The Kansas Supreme Court said this week that it may not allow public schools to open next year if Kansas lawmakers do not come up with a constitutional way of funding them.

But the president of the Kansas Senate said Friday that it’s unrealistic to expect lawmakers to devise a new school funding system in the Wagle remaining weeks of the 2016 session, and she thinks the process will take at least another year.

“I’ve said all along that a new finance formula takes a lot of collaboration, a lot of communication, and the needs of the districts are very diverse,” said Sen. Susan Wagle, RWichita. “And to try and pack a new

espite gasoline rationing when World War II began, the building — and rebuilding — of Kansas Highway 32, and hay wagon rides through muddy roads, the Mackey Merry Makers have always had a great time.

The group started in the winter of 1940 as a sewing club for women of the Mackey School District. Mackey School was located in Leavenworth County, northeast of Lawrence, until it was consolidated in the mid-1960s.

The members would exchange feed sacks to sew new clothing for their families.

When WWII broke out, transportation became a concern because of gasoline rationing and tire shortages, but the Merry Makers voted unanimously to keep the club together.

In 1952, the usual host of the monthly meetings lived near where Kansas Highway 32 was under

construction; the road was torn up and too muddy to drive. Nevertheless, the host’s husband took the tractor and hay wagon to bring the members to the house for the meeting.

The club still lives by these words from founder Anna Gardner: “The main idea of our club was and is a friendly get-together, to get better acquainted with our neighbors, to help them in times of sickness and to promote a feeling of friendliness and good will at all times.”

After celebrating their 75th anniversary on Thursday, the Mackey Merry Makers — 14 of them total, half of whom are in their 80s — continue to donate to local charities, including the Salvation Army, Douglas County Visiting Nurses, Just Food and more. Through those 75 years, the club has had more than 100 members.

LAWRENCE • STATE

Voting rights groups sue federal election official Wichita — A coalition of voting rights groups on Friday sued a federal elections official who decided that residents of Alabama, Kansas and Georgia can no longer register to vote using a national form without providing proof of U.S. citizenship.

The 224-page complaint filed in federal court, also named in the suit the U.S. Election Assistance Commission. It was brought by the League of Women Voters, Project Vote, the Georgia State Conference of the NAACP and others.

Their complaint contends the action by executive director Brian Newby will hurt voter registration drives and deprive eligible voters of the right to vote in the presidential primary elections. It seeks a court

order immediately blocking the changes to the federal voter registration form.

“Voters should not have to face an obstacle course to participate and vote,” Elisabeth MacNamara, president of the League of Women Voters of the United States, said in a news release.

Newby did not return an after-hours phone message left Friday at his office, and the commission’s spokesman did not immediately respond to an email seeking comment on the lawsuit.

But Newby, who took the job in November, has said he was within his authority and believed he did not have the discretion to decide which state instructions were OK and which were not.

Newby sent letters dated Jan. 29 to the three states that had requested the

The Topeka CapitalJournal reports a House committee Thursday heard testimony from Floyd Bledsoe, who was wrongfully convicted in the 1999 murder of Zetta “Camille” Arfmann in Oskaloosa. His brother, Tom, originally admitted to the crime but later recanted his confessions, which were not recorded.

Floyd Bledsoe told the committee he might not have been convicted if jurors would’ve been able to hear his brother confess and hear him maintaining his innocence.

R-Perry, who introduced House bill, said it’s partly in response to Bledsoe’s wrongful conviction.

“In any major crime, you probably should have a recorded interview,” he said.

Alice Craig, Bledsoe’s attorney with Kansas University’s Paul E. Wilson Project for Innocence, supports the interrogation recordings.

“We cannot say 16 years later how that would have impacted the investigation, but it could not have hurt,” Craig said.

The executive director of the Midwest Innocence Project, Oliver Burnette, said Bledsoe is a proponent of recorded interrogations.

“When he says, ‘This could have helped me,’ we tend to take it seriously,” he said.

The House Committee on Corrections and Juvenile Justice will hear the legislation Thursday.

Last year, lawmakers repealed the funding formula that had been in place since the early 1990s and replaced it for two years with a system of block grants.

The amount each of the 286 districts receives in a block grant is based largely on what they had received during the 20142015 school year. It includes the base per-pupil aid plus the additional aid for capital outlay and local option budgets, all rolled into one grant that allows more flexibility in the way districts spend it.

But the way capital outlay and local option budget aid was changed resulted in sizable cuts for most districts. And the state Supreme Court said it violates the Kansas Constitution because it creates wealth-based disparities, requiring poorer districts to levy higher property tax rates than wealthier districts in order to fund comparable educational programs.

The court gave the Legislature until June 30, the last day of the current fiscal year, to solve the inequities, and it said the path lawmakers choose to take between now and then will determine whether schools can reopen in August.

Some have suggested lawmakers could reinstate the old formula for capital outlay and local option budget aid, and it would probably pass muster with the court, as

— Sen. Laura Kelly, D-Topeka long as there is adequate funding. But Wagle dismissed any such suggestion.

“I don’t know of any senators who want to go back to the old formula,” Wagle said. “We repealed the old formula for a reason.”

One of those reasons was that it was difficult for lawmakers or budget officials to predict how much the state would be called upon to spend from year to year.

That’s because lawmakers would set the state budget in the spring, but school districts set their budgets in August.

And often, school districts would make decisions to increase their local option budgets, or take on more capital outlay projects, that would result in higher-than-expected costs to the state.

That had became an acute problem in recent years as revenue collections lagged, and the state teetered on the brink of being unable to pay all of its budgeted expenditures, let alone any new, unexpected costs for K-12 school funding.

But Sen. Laura Kelly, DTopeka and the ranking Democrat on the Senate Ways and Means Committee, said she thinks the job could be done this session, if GOP leaders allocate the Legislature’s time and resources wisely.

tax growth. The city more typically has counted on 3 percent sales tax growth to make its budgets.

But as city officials have previously noted, 2016 will be the first full year of sales tax collections with both Dick’s Sporting Goods and Menards in town. There is a hope that the addition of those two big box retailers will keep some retail dollars in town that otherwise have been leaving the community. That seems to be a good bet, but what is less certain is whether the overall economy will hold up and put shoppers in a spending mood.

Traditionally, a drop in gasoline prices has been a good thing for Lawrence retailers. It is tough to say whether that will be the case this year.

SATURDAY COLUMN

KU must foster better relationships in Topeka

By Dolph C. Simons Jr.

Earlier this week, Kansas University Chancellor Bernadette Gray-Little addressed a gathering of KU faculty and administrators to give them an update on university happenings.

One of the issues, one that is likely to remain an issue for some time, is the manner in which KU officials and the Kansas Board of Regents maneuvered a $350 million bond issue to fund a huge development project on the southwest corner of the main campus.

The issue caught fire among a number of Kansas legislators, who threatened possibly negative and punishing actions relative to the university’s requests for state funding.

This particular issue and the manner in which it was handled by KU officials served as a spark that opened up a longstanding and simmering sense of mistrust between KU officials and state lawmakers.

Some senior KU officials do not hide their dislike of or lack of confidence in many legislators. They think the lawmakers do not realize or appreciate the

importance of adequate funding for a state-aided “flagship” institution. They claim part of the problem is that not enough legislators have college degrees and that there is a bias against KU. Legislators, on the other hand, think too many at KU, particularly those in Strong Hall, consider themselves as superior, smarter elitists and have little, if any, knowledge of the state or appreciation of the needs and challenges of those living west of Topeka.

They believe the years-old identification of KU as “snob hill” is accurate and timely, and that Kansas State University, along with Wichita State, Fort Hays State, Emporia State and Pittsburg State, are more reflective of true Kansas values.

KU and Lawrence represent the liberal capital of the state.

It’s not a good situation, not one to build good relations and understanding between KU/ Lawrence and legislators who represent other areas of the state. There’s one other factor: Lawrence and KU already have it pretty good, very good, compared to the rest of the state.

KU and the independent KU

Endowment Association are wrapping up a highly successful $1.3 billion capital campaign, and Lawrence is looked upon with envy by many in the state.

Acknowledging the poor relationship between KU and state legislators, Gray-Little told her KU audience the university is launching a new branding campaign. She said the Jayhawk, the logo and the font will not change, but the campaign will look for “new and consistent ways to help KU tell a story.”

COMMENTARY This matter of not being able to tell the KU story in an effective manner is not new. In years past, with various chancellors, there was a genuine sense of appreciation among state lawmakers for the role, performance and benefit to the state provided by the university.

There always has been a battle for adequate funding, but there was a mutual understanding on the need for a cooperative relationship between the Legislature and KU leadership. Also, governors, aside from the late George

Docking, may have had their differences relative to KU and its leaders, but they were well aware of KU’s role and importance. Governors made every effort to appoint individuals to the Board of Regents who merited high respect by the public and those in higher education.

However, for the past decade or so — the last five or so years under Chancellor Robert Hemenway and now with GrayLittle — this environment has changed. There is a different attitude, and it’s easy to point fingers. Assigned spokespeople for the university have done a poor job in Topeka in building a positive story for KU. For example, the last two KU provosts, Richard Lariviere and Jeff Vitter, did not win supporters or admirers among state lawmakers. Both were highly intelligent, some say brilliant, but Lariviere was described as arrogant and argumentative and Vitter as terribly difficult to visit with.

Likewise, those assigned to “tell the KU story” have been ineffective, with many in Topeka claiming Kansas State lobbyists “run circles” around their KU counterparts.

Now, KU is trying to hire a new provost, although it is difficult to understand why a top-flight candidate would give serious consideration to the job when he or she has no idea how long Gray-Little would be his or her boss.

KU is a very good university with the potential to be one of the nation’s best state-aided institutions. State lawmakers and the governor should, and probably do, know this, but attitudes and the manner of many representing the school handicap efforts to build KU into an even greater school and asset for the state.

Let’s hope Gray-Little’s efforts to look for “new and consistent ways to help KU tell a story” will prove successful. If so, the state and the university both will be winners.

As she noted, changing a typeface, logo or Jayhawk are not going to get the job done. Far more changes are needed, maybe a change in some people. It will require a far different attitude by many on Mount Oread and this, in turn, is likely to result in major improvements and better understanding among lawmakers, perhaps turning critics into supporters.

Kansas City, Mo. (ap) — Kansas City has created a plan in the city budget to tear down about 800 vacant houses and buildings in struggling neighborhoods in the next two years.

The Kansas City Star reports that Mayor Sly James and City Manager Troy Schulte unveiled the plan Thursday to issue $10 million in bonds for the project, which would be paid off over a decade for about $1.3 million a year.

The city is finally able to allocate resources to help the problem because revenue

growth is more robust than it’s been in years. Kansas City’s general fund for basic services is projected to grow nearly 2 percent in the fiscal year to $542 million. The total budget expects $1.53 billion in spending, up 3.5 percent from this fiscal year ending April 30.

“This is the strongest revenue position we’ve been in in a decade,” James said. “When you have money, you can do things.”

In the past, Kansas City has chipped away at the dangerous-buildings problem, spending about

$800,000 to tear down 100 homes a year. The city never got ahead of the problem because new homes kept being added to the roster.

The 800 properties that will be torn down in the plan are located all over the city. Neighborhood leader Marlon Hammons said he would prefer that the homes be renovated.

“A vacant lot is better than a house sitting neglected,” Hammons said.

The city council will vote on the city budget recommendation in late March. It would take effect May 1.

The plea hearing for a Shawnee man accused of stabbing his wife twice was pushed back Friday for the second time.

NavinKumar Patel, 46, was arrested in late June 2015. A felony charge of attempted first-degree murder was filed against him.

Patel is accused of Patel stabbing his wife in the abdomen at Lawrence’s Super 8 Motel, 515 McDonald Drive, which he owns. His wife was transported to Lawrence Memorial Hospital with 2-centimeter stab wounds, according to an affidavit filed in Douglas

to a device,” said Jennifer Fessenden, coordinator of educational programs and technology for the district.

The changeover to digital has been gradual over the past five years. This school year, digital texts were rolled out for three additional subjects: high school algebra and advanced placement U.S. history, as well as elementary language arts. After those additions, more than 90 percent of students districtwide — or about 10,000 students — have one or more subjects that rely on a digital textbook.

“Providing digitized materials like this openly when it is possible to do so ensures our users worldwide access to a growing digital repository,” University Archivist Becky Schulte said. “KU has made tremendous progress in establishing a high standard of open access at our university, and it is a vital asset that new information be widely available for researchers.”

Another reason it’s probably best the library did the digitizing: The full document — including detailed passages about sexually transmitted diseases and post-encounter hygiene rules for the brothels — might not pass what we at family newspapers call the breakfast-table test, anyway.

reached at 832-7284 or cswanson@ljworld.com.

The district’s capital outlay plan for 2016 includes $965,000 to purchase computer and mobile devices and $750,000 toward technology leases. Fessenden said that between $500,000 and $600,000 of the purchases will be technology for additional “blended learning” classrooms, which “blend” traditional instruction, online resources and small-group work. The remainder of those funds and the technology lease funds will be used to ensure access to devices for all students, by either assigning devices to all students in certain grades (going “1-to-1”), expanding the device checkout program, or both.

After teachers raised

concerns about inequity, a pilot device checkout program began in September at both high schools.

Currently, the program includes 35 laptops and 10 Wi-Fi hotspots available for checkout at each high school. Since its inception, both schools have maintained waiting lists. In December, four students who use the program appealed to the school board to expand it.

One of those students was Lanice Brown, a junior at Free State High School. Brown has two computers at home, but her twin sister uses one for virtual school and another sister is taking online college courses. By the time the computer was free, she

said, it was often late, and having a device from the school has helped her be able to do her homework.

Brown said she uses her device for schoolwork for three of her classes, and that expanding the device checkout program first and foremost would meet needs quickest.

“I feel like we would be more efficient if we could just get some devices and check them out to the students who actually need them,” she said, explaining that she thinks going 1-to-1 for certain grades might mean some students who don’t actually need a device would be issued one.

Fessenden said expanding checkout programs

or otherwise ensuring all students have access to a device is a priority, and that planning for exactly how that will be accomplished is in the works.

“There have not been any additional (devices) added for checkout; however, we have tried to accommodate as best we

can,” she said, noting that discussions are ongoing and more specifics should be known in a couple of weeks. “I’d just as soon have those devices in their hands than not.”

done a few special orders, but has not truly jumped into the catering business. She has a fulltime job, which explains the Saturday-only schedule, she said.

The new location comes with a large rear section equipped with a bouncy house, which will be available for children’s parties, Austin said. It will also be the new home of Amanda Kleine’s fitness classes, which gives the two friends a chance to work both sides of customers’ calories counts, she joked.

“She (Amanda) tells people once they are finished with boot camp, they need to go over to Lulu’s and get a cinnamon roll,” Austin said. l A request to rezone property in the north end of the Fire Tree subdivision will get another hearing with the Baldwin City Council. On Feb. 1, the City Council voted to send back to the Baldwin City Planning Commission a request to change the current R1 singlefamily home zoning on property at 700 Ridge Lane to R2, which would allow construction of two-unit connected-roof duplexes.

Andrew Danner of North Star Housing LLC told the council the plan was to build 15 total duplexes with 29 units and a clubhouse.

After voting to return the rezoning to the Planning

Commission, the City Council did vote to support the developer’s application for affordable housing tax credits from the state.

On Feb. 9, the Planning Commission decided to take no action on the rezoning, sending it back to the City Council, where it will be considered at Monday’s meeting. A vote will have to change on the City Council to resolve the issue. The decision to send the rezoning back to the Planning Commission came after the City Council’s 3-2 vote against the Planning Commission’s

recommendation to approve the rezoning. That recommendation established the requirement the City Council override the recommendation by a supermajority or at least four members. l Baldwin City’s Lumberyard Arts Center made about $4,700 from its annual Chocolate Auction.

The funds support scholarships to Baldwin High School graduates studying the arts in college and arts center programing.

The next big event at the Lumberyard is the annual junior high school and high school gallery show.

It opens with a reception for the young artists from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. Feb. 19. l The Eudora Parks and Recreation multi-family garage and rummage sale will be from 9 a.m. to noon today at the Eudora Community Center. l The autism support group Eudora ACES will have its annual parade and fundraiser from 2 to 4 p.m. today at CPA Park.

The event includes a raffle, silent auction and parade to downtown.

Presidential election no reality show CBS hosts a GOP presidential debate (8 p.m.), the first since the New Hampshire primaries.

The former host of “The Celebrity Apprentice” won that contest. So for now, he’s the party’s front-runner.

These debates may have become regular TV events, but they need to be distinguished from reality television, where celebrities — even hosts of “The Celebrity Apprentice” — can simply say anything without c o n s e quence.

This is the first debate since his Tuesday night victory speech, when the former casino owner suggested that our unemployment rate was really 42 percent and not the roughly 5 percent that economists recently reported. For the record, historians place the unemployment rate during 1933, the worst year of the Great Depression, at 25 percent. So that figure is rather startling.

Where did the author of “The Art of the Deal” get this fact?

Does he believe it? If not, why is he repeating it?

Facts don’t have to matter on a reality show, a genre dedicated to passing off the contrived as “real.” But this is different. We need to remind ourselves that this is a presidential election. Not an episode of “Ghost Hunters” or “Ancient Aliens.”

When did this custom begin?

Obama feeds anti-establishment fervor Washington — The New Hampshire results have solidified the reigning cliche that the 2016 campaign is an anti-establishment revolt of both the left and the right. Largely overlooked, however, is the role played in setting the national mood by the seven-year legacy of the Obama presidency.

Yes, you hear constant denunciations of institutions, parties, leaders,

“

Beyond railing against the wreckage, the other commonality between the two big New Hampshire winners is in the nature of the cure they offer. Let the others propose carefully budgeted five-point plans. Sanders and Trump offer magic.” donors, lobbyists, influence peddlers. But the starting point of the bipartisan critique is the social, economic and geopolitical wreckage all around us. Bernie Sanders is careful never to blame Obama directly, but his description of the America Obama leaves

behind is devastating — a wasteland of stagnant wages, rising inequality, a sinking middle class, young people crushed by debt, the American Dream dying.

Take away the Brooklyn accent and the Larry David mannerisms and you would have thought you were listening to a Republican candidate.

After all, who’s been in charge for the last seven years?

Donald Trump is even more colorful in describing the current “mess” and more direct in attributing it to the country’s leadership — most pungently, its stupidity and incompetence. Both candidates are not just anti-establishment but anti-status quo. The revolt is as much about the Obama legacy as it is about institutions.

Look at New Hampshire. Hillary Clinton had made a strategic decision, as highlighted in the debates, to wrap herself in the mantle of the Obama presidency. Big mistake.

She lost New Hampshire by three touchdowns.

Beyond railing against

the wreckage, the other commonality between the two big New Hampshire winners is in the nature of the cure they offer.

Let the others propose carefully budgeted fivepoint plans. Sanders and Trump offer magic.

Take Sanders’ New Hampshire victory speech. It promised the moon: college education, free; universal health care, free; world peace, also free because we won’t be “the policeman of the world” (mythical Sunni armies will presumably be doing that for us). Plus a guaranteed $15 minimum wage.

All to be achieved by taxing the rich. Who can be against a “speculation” tax (whatever that means)?

So with Trump. Leave it to him. Jobs will flow back in a rush from China, from Japan, from Mexico, from everywhere. Universal health care, with Obamacare replaced by “something terrific.” Veterans finally taken care of. Drugs stopped cold at the border. Indeed, an end to drug addiction itself.

Victory upon victory of every kind.

How? That question never comes up anymore.

No one expects an answer. His will be done, on earth if not yet in heaven.

Yes, people love Trump’s contempt for the “establishment” — which, as far as I can tell, means anything not Trump — but what is truly thrilling is the promise of a near-biblical restoration. As painless as Sanders’.

In truth, Trump and Sanders are soaring not just by defying the establishment, but by defying logic and history.

Sanders’ magic potion is socialism; Trump’s is Trump.

The young Democrats swooning for Sanders appear unfamiliar with socialism’s century-long career, a dismal tale of ruination from Russia to Cuba to Venezuela.

Indeed, are they even aware that China’s greatest reduction in poverty in human history correlates precisely with the degree to which it has given up socialism?

Trump’s magic is toughness — toughness

in a world of losers. The power and will of the caudillo will make everything right.

Apart from the fact that strongman rule contradicts the American constitutional tradition of limited and constrained government, caudillo populism simply doesn’t work. It accounts in a large part for the relative backwardness of Africa and Latin America. In 1900, Argentina had a per capita income fully 70 percent of ours. After a 20th century wallowing in Peronism and its imitators, Argentina is a basket case, its per capita income now 23 percent of ours.

There certainly is a crisis of confidence in the country’s institutions. But that’s hardly new. The current run of endemic distrust began with Vietnam and Watergate. Yet not in our lifetimes have the left and right populism of the Sanders and Trump variety enjoyed such massive support.

The added factor is the Obama effect, the depressed and anxious mood of a nation experiencing its worst economic recovery since World War II and watching its power and influence abroad decline amid a willed global retreat.

The result is a politics of high fantasy. Things can’t get any worse, we hear, so why not shake things up to their foundation? Anyone who thinks things can’t get any worse knows nothing. And risks everything.

PUBLIC FORUM Letters Policy

Great service To the editor: What a great profile of Kelley Hunt by Joanna Hlavacek with the story of Hunt’s housewife mom singing to friends to “lift them up,” even singing to a local grocer right there in the store when the man was facing a serious illness. Hunt says she thought, “That’s how you serve somebody with what you got.” What a great idea on serving for all of us.

Thanks, Kelley, for serving Just Food with what you got.

Katherine Dinsdale, Lawrence

OLD HOME TOWN

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for Feb. 13, 1916: “Lawrence merchants have made an entertainment years for people of the country an ago annual affair on July 4, but IN 1916 the program is likely to be reversed this year. Members of the Farmers Institute have concluded that it is their turn to show the merchants a good time. ... At the last business meeting of the Farmers Institute a motion was passed to ‘join forces with the County Horticultural society and entertain the members of the Merchants Association July 4 with a picnic dinner at Woodland park.’...

The town merchants are understood to be in a receptive attitude. Another way of saying it is that if a country picnic dinner is served in the park July 4 they will be there to the last man. They have had experience with country entertainments before in which the cooking ability of the farm women figured prominently, and those experiences assure a solid roll call of the Merchants Association when the dinner guests are announced at Woodland.”

“Governor Elliott Major of Missouri, who

was a Lawrence visitor and spoke before the students of the University of Kansas today, had a new experience when he addressed the Jefferson county Democrats in Perry last night. It was the first time the governor had ever attended a political banquet at which both men and women were present. ‘It was a new experience for me,’ said Governor Major this morning.... ‘It was a new experience, and I liked it. I don’t know how long it will be before we are doing the same thing in Missouri. Although the suffrage amendment failed the last time it was submitted, I understand it is to be submitted again, possibly next fall.’ Although the Governor of Missouri found a new situation, with both men and women at the Perry meeting, he felt pretty much at home, after all, he said, for the strong confidence of the Jefferson county Democrats was the sort he is used to at home.”

Ferguson could be in for long fight vs.

Justice

Few believe community can overcome troubles in own judicial system Kevin Johnson @bykevinj USA TODAY

The first time a Justice Department lawsuit to reform a local police department was challenged, the odds seemed stacked against Columbus, Ohio.

Federal authorities alleged that police officers had engaged in false arrests and excessive force. The actions, officials said at the time of the 1999 lawsuit, were effectively sanctioned because detailed incident reports were forwarded to superiors who took no action.

Yet after municipal leaders argued in 2002 that they had begun implementing improvements on their own, Justice took the unusual step of dropping the case in favor of an outof-court resolution.

Fourteen years later, Ferguson has embarked on a similar course, but few believe that the fraught Missouri town has the capacity to overcome what federal authorities contend is decades of systemic discrimination that has enveloped the community’s entire criminal justice sys-

Oil enjoys best day in seven years West Texas crude price rises 11.5% on hopes of OPEC production cuts Nathan Bomey @NathanBomey USA TODAY

Oil prices scored their biggest one-day gain since 2009 on Friday after hitting 12-year lows a day earlier, as hopes of production cuts by the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries fueled a rally.

The roller-coaster ride for crude oil kicked into high gear

as the price of West Texas Intermediate crude oil, the U.S. benchmark, rose 11.5% to settle at $29.23.

Brent crude, the global benchmark, rose 10.1% to close at $33.09.

The spike came after a United Arab Emirates Energy Minister suggested that OPEC members “are ready to cooperate on a cut,” The Wall Street Journal reported Thursday.

That remark served as a bea-

con of hope for oil producers that have been crushed by the commodity’s slide.

WTI on Thursday hit its lowest closing mark since May 2003, according to the Oil Price Information Service.

A production cut by OPEC would help ease the global glut of petroleum that has been created by the market-share war in the Middle East, fresh output by U.S. shale producers and a tepid global economy marked by a slowdown in China.

Cuts by OPEC would mark a reversal. In January, OPEC increased production by 280,000 barrels per day to 32.6 million, according to an International Energy Agency report released Tuesday.

“A sanctions-free Iran, Saudi Arabia and Iraq all turned up the taps,” IEA reported.

POPE, PATRIARCH MEET IN CUBA NEARLY 1,000 YEARS AFTER SPLIT Doug Stanglin @dstanglin USA TODAY

Despite famine, religious wars, worldwide conflict and the spread of civilization, the heads of the Roman Catholic and the Russian Orthodox churches haven’t spoken since the Great Schism of 1054 shattered Christendom, so they had a lot of catching up to do when they sat down for their historic meeting Friday in Cuba.

Pope Francis and Patriarch Kirill embraced and kissed one another three times on the cheek as they met in the wood-paneled VIP room at Havana’s José Martí

Historic get-together is first step in wiping away years of mistrust, suspicion

International Airport. The two church leaders then proceeded to a pair of straight-backed chairs turned at right angles.

After another round of handshakes for the cameras and greetings with members of their entourages, the two men sat and began talking.

They held a two-hour “personal conversation” and then signed a joint declaration.

"We are brothers," Francis said as he embraced Kirill in the small, wood-paneled VIP room of Havana's airport, where the three-hour encounter took place.

The split between the two churches nearly 1,000 years ago has festered over issues such as

the primacy of the pope and accusations by the Russian Orthodox Church that the Catholic Church tries to poach converts in Russia.

No pope has ever visited Russia. En route to the historic visit Friday, journalists asked Francis if a visit to the nation is on his papal bucket list.

“China and Russia, I have them here,” Francis said, pointing to his heart. “Pray.”

Few people expect Friday’s meeting — which took two years of secret planning to pull off — will wipe away centuries of distrust and suspicion in a few hours, but it will be a groundbreaking step toward CatholicOrthodox relations.

Carnival celebration masks worries about economy, Olympics Dominic Hinde

Special for USA TODAY RIO DE JANEIRO The dazzling colors, rhythmic music and raucous partying that mark Carnival season dominated life again in this teeming metropolis.

Yet the partying and excite-

ment this year masked a growing list of troubles that plague Rio and the rest of Brazil.

First it was the collapse of a once-soaring economy, followed by a humiliating World Cup defeat on home soil in 2014. Then a growing corruption scandal enveloping President Dilma Rouseff and fears the country won’t be ready to host the Olympic Games this summer.

Now Brazilians must contend with an outbreak of the Zika virus that threatens to discourage ath-

letes and visitors from coming to the Olympics, unless the government gets the spreading health problem under control.

“Brazil has lost its momentum, and everybody knows and feels it,” said Henrik Jonsson, a Riobased Swedish author of books about Brazil’s foreign policy and its society. “The past 10 years of stability are over.”

Zika is transmitted by mosquitoes, infected blood and sexual contact. The World Health Organization declared the virus a

worldwide health emergency following reports last month Brazilian babies were born with birth defects because their mothers contracted Zika while pregnant.

Yet Brazilian officials and ordinary citizens may not be taking the crisis seriously enough.

“We don’t do special cleaning for Zika,” said Luiz Claudio Nascimento, part of the cleaning crew that scrubbed remnants of pesticides sprayed days earlier v STORY CONTINUES ON 2B

House votes to ease eateries’ calorie disclosure rules Critics call proposal

by FDA an example of federal overreach Erin Kelly USA TODAY

WASHINGTON — The House voted Friday to make it easier for you to avoid the harsh truth of how many calories you’re devouring as you scarf down that pizza.

House members voted 266-144 to gut a proposed Food and Drug Administration rule requiring chain pizzerias, delis and convenience stores to list the calorie

content of their meals on menus or menu boards prominently displayed on the premises. Instead, takeout restaurants and grocers could choose to disclose calories only on their websites.

The White House opposes the Common Sense Nutrition Disclosure Act, saying it will leave Americans — who consume a third of their calories away from home — with less information to make healthy choices.

The food fight came down to a debate over the role of government in nutrition.

approach,” said Rep. Fred Upton, R-Mich., speaking in favor of the bill by Reps. Cathy McMorris

Rodgers, R-Wash., and Loretta Sanchez, D-Calif.

Upton said Michigan-based Domino’s Pizza would have to list the calorie content of hundreds of different combinations of crusts and toppings on a menu board to comply with the FDA’s rule. Domino’s already has an online calorie counter for customers, most of whom order on their computers or phones, Upton said.

Rep. Jan Schakowsky, D-Ill., said pizzerias would have to list only the calories of standard menu items, such as a slice of cheese or pepperoni pizza, and not every possible combination.

She said the bill would allow

restaurants to define a “serving size” in misleading ways. For example, she said, a takeout restaurant could list the calories of just one chicken wing instead of an actual order of wings.

“This unnecessary legislation would deny consumers critical information about the food that we eat,” Schakowsky said.

The legislation was opposed by the American Diabetes Association, the American Cancer Society, the American Heart Association and other groups seeking to prevent diseases linked to obesity.

An identical bill has been introduced in the Senate.

Stem flow of migrants, EU tells Greece Citizens’ ability to travel freely is at stake, agency warns Kim Hjelmgaard @khjelmgaard USA TODAY

The European Union warned Greece on Friday to do a better job of stemming the flood of migrants crossing through to other European nations or face a suspension of the EU’s passportfree travel rights.

The ultimatum — fix Greece’s border controls within three months or lose the right to travel freely for up to two years — comes as the 28-nation bloc struggles to cope with its worst refugee crisis since World War II. Greece is the main gateway for several thousand migrants a day who are fleeing wars in Syria and elsewhere en route to more prosperous northern Europe. EU leaders have accused Greece of not doing enough to keep so many war refugees and other migrants from transiting through the country.

“The overall functioning of the Schengen Area is at serious risk,” the European Council said, referring to a 28-nation European zone that allows for passport-free travel for more than 40 million citizens, business people, tourists and others. “The difficulties faced MUNICH

by Greece have an impact on the EU as a whole.”

Schengen Area countries are permitted to unilaterally put up border controls for a maximum of six months, but that time limit can be extended for up to two years if a member is found to be failing to protect its borders.

France and Austria have imposed temporary border controls, and European Council President Donald Tusk has warned that the free-travel zone faces collapse if migration to Europe is not brought under control.

The European Council gave Greece a list of changes it wants

made, including overhauling its “registration procedures, sea border surveillance, border check procedures, risk analyses, human resources and training, infrastructure and equipment and international cooperation.”

The International Organization for Migration, which tracks people fleeing conflict zones, said Friday that an estimated 83,201 migrants have arrived in Europe this year, 77,303 of them arriving on Greek islands from Turkey.

More than 850,000 migrants came to Greece last year.

Greece, which has been coping with an enormous debt burden that required an international bailout last year, has complained that it lacks financial resources to manage the huge flow of people.

NATO said this week that it would start patrolling the Aegean Sea as it steps up efforts to clamp down on smugglers who are ferrying migrants across the Mediterranean Sea to Europe.

The development came as the 52nd Munich Security Conference kicked off Friday in this Bavarian capital. World leaders and diplomats held talks on such subjects as cyber security, the Islamic State terror group and the migrant crisis.

Wolfgang Ischinger, chairman of the conference, said in his welcoming remarks that the world is at a more dangerous point than at

any time since the Cold War. Jordan’s King Abdullah, whose country is hosting more than 600,000 Syrian refugees, said the EU needed to do more to help nations on its doorstep with large Muslim populations, such as Kosovo and Albania, to halt the spread of radical Islam.

“The difficulties faced by Greece have an impact on the EU as a whole.”

The European Council

“Sorry to say this, but we are dealing with something permanent,” said Italian Foreign Minister Paolo Gentiloni. He said attempts to solve the crisis should avoid “national solutions.”

In Berlin, actor George Clooney and his wife, Amal, a human rights lawyer, met with German Chancellor Angela Merkel to discuss the crisis. He is in Germany to attend the Berlin International Film Festival.

Clooney told reporters Thursday that he “absolutely agreed” with Merkel’s decision to welcome more than 1 million migrants to Germany last year, a move that won international plaudits but has provoked an anti-immigrant backlash at home.

along Carnival’s parade route. “As far as we have been told, it is not so serious. You just need to drink a lot of water.”

Brazilian Olympics organizers say the type of mosquitoes that carry Zika don’t live near the Olympic park and stadium. However, local medical authorities said they’ve documented several cases of Zika in the town of Jacerapagua, which abuts the Olympic park. “There is some risk,” said Marzia Montello, a physician at Jacerapagua’s Lourenco Jorge Hospital. “People should not be alarmed, though.”

In the Morro da Mineira neighborhood on a hill overlooking the Sambadrome, one of Carnival’s exhibition sites, local residents also reported several cases of the disease.

Like many of Rio’s favelas (slums), the neighborhood lacks fresh water and proper sewage.

An open-air sewer clogged with plastic and stagnant water runs through the area — ideal conditions for mosquitoes. Mara da Silva Riveiro, a resident, said public health officials haven’t visited the area to tackle Zika or the dengue virus, an illness related to Zika that occasionally erupts in Brazil’s poorest districts Brazilians may soon become more alert to the dangers of Zika.

TV stations began broadcasting health warnings and information about the virus. Carnival chiefs in Rio de Janeiro had announced this week that partygoers should forgo kissing, a Carnival tradition, so revelers don’t spread the disease through their saliva.

Many Brazilians say they don’t have much faith in their leaders to take control of the problem.

Walter Suarez Waldinho, a sailor in the city’s Marina Gloria, where Olympic sailing events will be held, points to a promise by officials to clean Rio’s Guanabara Bay. A blanket of trash and sewage still floats on the water there.

“Guanabara Bay has always been dirty,” he said. “They say it will be clean for the Olympics.

But I will wait and see.”

Despite lawsuit, Ferguson officials say they are committed to change v CONTINUED FROM 1B

tem. The Justice Department sued the city Wednesday after municipal leaders sought to revise a long-negotiated settlement, citing prohibitive costs of executing such a deal.

“If they (Ferguson) go to court, they will lose,” University of Pittsburgh law professor David Harris said. “There is one way Ferguson doesn’t end up paying and that is if the town goes out of business.’’

The professor’s assessment is harsh, but it is a sentiment shared by many analysts, including some policing advocates, who believe that the millions of dollars it will likely cost to mount a legal challenge would be better spent on reforming the operations of the troubled police agency that was thrust into the uncomfortable national spotlight 18 months ago after the disputed shooting of an 18year-old unarmed black teenager by a white officer.

The officer was not charged, but the incident and the sustained civil unrest that followed prompted a broad Justice Department examination of the city’s criminal justice system.

That examination, published nearly a year ago, offered a searing indictment of policing operations, asserting that African Americans were disproportionately subjected to arrests and stops. At the same time, investigators said the city sought to use policing operations to boost revenues in fines and fees, often at the expense of poor and AfricanAmerican residents who had lit-

tle means to contest such sanctions.

“The findings seem to be pretty clear cut,” said Chuck Wexler, executive director of the Police Executive Research Forum, a law enforcement think tank.

“This is a department with very serious problems. A lawsuit only seems to prolong a contentious relationship with the Department of Justice and with the community.”

Ferguson officials were unmoved, saying they remain eager to resume negotiations after the City Council voted late Tuesday to revise a tentative agreement reached with Justice last month. The amendments, in part, removed language, which local leaders asserted, mandated big raises for police officers to draw a more qualified and diverse candidate pool.

Local leaders also sought to free the city from its obligations under the agreement should Ferguson shutter the police department and enlist another agency to provide public safety services.

Harris also raised the prospect that by inviting the lawsuit Ferguson may be gambling that within a year a new administration in the White House may be more sympathetic to the city’s plight.

“The city stands by to restart negotiations to approve (an agreement) with the amendments that have the support of an overwhelming majority of the public,” Ferguson spokesman Jeff Small said. He added that there was “no consideration” of a political calculus to

wait out the current administration.

“It didn’t get that far,” he said.

Robert Driscoll, a former chief of staff in the Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division who worked on the Columbus case during the Bush administration, said Ferguson’s deci-

sion — while rare — may not be “a terrible idea.”

By moving quickly to file a lawsuit, Driscoll said, Justice officials may have lost some leverage to cajole a settlement and begin the process of reform.

“They effectively killed their hostage,” Driscoll said.

It will now be up to the courts to decide, the former official said, whether Justice may have overstepped its authority by trying to dictate such things as the physical makeup of the police department and how officers should be paid.

While formidable, Driscoll also said Justice’s legal action is not guaranteed to succeed.

Last year, a North Carolina federal judge ruled that the government “failed to demonstrate” that the Alamance County, N.C., Sheriff’s Department engaged in discriminatory policing of Hispanics.

U.S. District Judge Thomas Schroeder rendered the decision after a 10-day bench trial.

“A lawsuit is not a slam dunk,” Driscoll said.

But James Pasco, executive director of the Fraternal Order of Police, the nation’s largest police union, said that it’s generally in the “best interests” of troubled police departments to seek an agreement.

“Justice can keep this going in court for years,” Pasco said, referring to the enormous legal fees Ferguson will likely face in pursing such a challenge. “You would have to be in serious denial to say that this course Ferguson is taking is the result of good advice.”

FACT CHECK

THE SIXTH DEMOCRATIC DEBATE Eugene Kiely, Brooks Jackson, Lori Robertson, Robert Farley and D’Angelo Gore l FactCheck.org

One week after their last meeting, the Democratic presidential candidates debated in Milwaukee. The sixth Democratic debate, and the second between only Clinton and Sanders, was hosted by PBS and held at the University of Wisconsin. We found: uVermont Sen. Bernie Sanders said his bill on Social Security would extend the life of the trust funds by 58 years. It’s 40 years, according to the Social Security Administration’s chief actuary. uFormer secretary of State Hillary Clinton said the Affordable Care Act “has helped more African Americans than any other group to get insurance.” But the Obama administration’s own figures show a larger drop in the uninsured among Latinos. uClinton repeated a claim that “Americans haven’t had a raise in 15 years.” Real weekly earnings went up 9.2% in that time frame.

uBoth candidates glossed over some context during a disagreement about whether Sanders had once advocated regime change in Libya and Iraq. uSanders inflated unemployment figures, including the “real” unemployment rate for African-American youth, which he says is more than 50%. The official rate for blacks age 16 to 19 is half that. uThe candidates disagreed over whether Sanders had been critical of Obama’s leadership, specifically in a blurb for a new book. Both made some accurate statements.

to 12.1% u7.4 million white adults gained coverage, with the uninsured rate dropping 6 percentage points to 8.3% An HHS fact sheet, also released in September 2015, said generally that “the Affordable Care Act is working to increase access to affordable, quality health care. This is especially true of the African-American Community.” But in terms of the uninsured, the coverage gains have been greater for Latinos.

EXTENDING THE LIFE OF SOCIAL SECURITY

Sanders said his legislation to lift the cap on payroll taxes and expand benefits would extend the life of the Social Security trust funds by 58 years. Not quite. The Social Security Administration’s chief actuary said this month that Sanders’ bill would extend the trust funds by 40 years, from 2034 to 2074.

Sanders is the sponsor of the Social Security Expansion Act. To pay for an expansion in benefits, the bill would lift the contribution limit on the Social Security payroll tax, which now applies to earnings up to $118,500.

The Vermont senator challenged Clinton to support his legislation.

Sanders: And here’s an area where Secretary Clinton and I believe we have a difference. I have long supported the proposition that we should lift the cap on taxable income coming into the Social Security Trust Fund, starting at $250,000. And when we — and when we do that, we don’t do what the Republicans want, which is to cut Social Security. We do what the American people want, to expand Social Security by $1,300 a year for people under $16,000, and we extend the life of Social Security for 58 years.”

Stephen Goss, chief actuary for the Social Security Administration, twice has looked at the financial impact of Sanders’ bill on the combined Old-Age, Survivors, and Disability Insurance trust funds.

In a March 26, 2015, letter to Sanders, Goss projected that under Sanders’ bill, “the year of reserve depletion for the combined OASDI Trust Funds would be extended by 32 years, from 2033 under current law to 2065.”

A year later, Goss increased the projected lifespan of the trust funds by another eight years to 40 years.

“Assuming enactment of the proposal, we estimate the funding for the combined OASI and DI Trust Funds would be sufficient to extend the projected year of reserve depletion from 2034 to 2074,” Goss wrote in a Feb. 4 letter to Sanders.

Under current law, full scheduled benefits would continue through 2033 and then drop to 79% in 2034, 74% in 2074 and 73% in 2089, Goss wrote. But under Sanders’ bill, full benefits Corrections & Clarifications USA TODAY is committed to accuracy.

A Sanders spokesman told us the senator was referring to “58 years from now,” meaning from 2016 to 2074. But Sanders said “we extend the life of Social Security for 58 years,” taking credit for 18 years when the Social Security trust funds will pay out full benefits whether his bill passes or not.

AFRICAN AMERICANS AND THE ACA

Clinton said that “the Affordable Care Act has helped more African Americans than any other group to get insurance, to be taken care of.” But the Obama administration’s own figures show a larger drop in the uninsured among Latinos.

The Department of Health and

“There’s a huge gap right now between Congress and the American people. What presidential leadership is about is closing that gap.”

Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, in an interview for MSNBC’s “The Last Word with Lawrence O’Donnell”

Human Services released an analysis in late September, saying 17.6 million had gained health insurance coverage under the ACA. The administration said that figure included three groups: young

adults who were able to stay on their parents’ policies until age 26, those who signed up for the Medicaid expansion and those who gained coverage through the state and federal insurance marketplaces.

The rate of uninsured AfricanAmerican adults dropped by 10.3 percentage points, a greater decline than among whites but not as much as the rate drop for Latinos. Here are the HHS figures for the decline in the uninsured between October 2013 and Sept.

12, 2015: u4 million Latino adults gained coverage, with the uninsured rate dropping 11.5 percentage points to 30.3% u2.6 million AfricanAmerican adults gained coverage, with the uninsured rate dropping 10.3 percentage points

Clinton repeated a bogus claim that “Americans haven’t had a raise in 15 years.”

Clinton: I know a lot of Americans are angry about the economy. And for good cause.

Americans haven’t had a raise in 15 years.”

In November, she said essentially the same thing at the second Democratic debate. Her claim fell short of being accurate at the time, and it’s even further short of the mark today.

The most recent figures from the Bureau of Labor Statistics show real weekly earnings in December 2015 were 9.2% higher than they were 15 years earlier.

That includes a 2.3% jump last year. (“Real” earnings are inflation-adjusted.)

It may well be so that many voters are “angry about the economy.” But the fact is, wages are rising faster than inflation.

Clinton went on to say that “(t) here aren’t enough good-paying jobs, especially for young people.”

But the fact is, the number of job openings was more than 5.6 million last December, according to BLS data. That’s nearly the highest in the 15 years the BLS has tracked job openings. It is just shy of the record of nearly 5.7 million set in July 2015.

As for “young people,” it’s true that, in January, the 10.3% jobless rate for those 16 to 24 years old was more than double the 4.9% rate for all adults. But the youth rate is always higher than the rate for older, more experienced adults. And the rate for 16- to 24year-olds has now dropped back down to where it was in January 2007, before the Great Recession sent it soaring to nearly 20%.

Gilmore suspended his campaign following a poor performance in the New Hampshire primary Tuesday, which followed an even worse showing Feb. 1 in Iowa, where he barely campaigned and was the choice of only 12 caucusgoers.

The masterpiece, which hangs in Paris’ Musée d’Orsay, depicts female genitalia. The controversy goes back five years when a 57-year-old Parisian teacher and art lover had his account suspended after posting the photo. The teacher is seeking 20,000 euros in damages.

Banks to investors: We’re safe German bank to buy back debt; Dimon invests in JPMorgan Kaja Whitehouse and Nathan Bomey

AT&T SET TO TEST SPEEDY ‘5G’ AT&T said it is ready to conduct “5G” field trials by the end of the year, following a similar announcement from Verizon. 5G is shorthand for the “fifth generation” of wireless and translates into speeds, AT&T says, that are 10 to 100 times faster than today’s average 4G LTE connections. The field trials will take place in Austin. In September, Verizon announced it would begin 5G field tests in 2016.

AUSTIN SENDS DECISION ON UBER, LYFT TO VOTERS Voters in Austin will decide in May whether drivers for ridehailing services such as Uber and Lyft must be fingerprinted and pay higher fees to the city than they did previously. In 2014, the City Council approved rules that required a 1% fee on ride-hailing services and didn’t include fingerprinting of drivers. In December, the council approved new rules that mandated fingerprintbased criminal background checks for drivers, as well as a 2% fee on local revenue to be paid to Austin.

Etch A Sketch will draw a new path for itself after its first shakeup in a half century.

The Bryan, Ohio-based metal lithography firm that owned the famously rectangular, red, mechanical drawing toy has sold the rights to produce the contraption after owning it for more than five decades.

The Ohio Art Co. announced Thursday that it sold Etch A Sketch and Doodle Sketch to Spin Master Corp., a publicly traded global toymaker based in Toronto. Terms of the deal were not released.

“We are very happy that children around the world will continue to be able to enjoy Etch A Sketch, one of the world’s most iconic toys, as Spin Master is committed to building upon the success that The Ohio Art Company has created and sustained

French electrical technician André Cassagnes used “the clinging properties of an electrostatic charge to invent a mechanical drawing toy with no spare parts,” introducing the L’Ecran Magique at the International Toy Fair in Nuremberg, Germany, in 1959, according to the National Toy Hall of Fame at The Strong National Museum of Play.

Although numerous toymakers were unimpressed, The Ohio Art Co. paid $25,000 to license the toy and renamed it Etch A Sketch. After an advertising blitz, the toy became a “must-have item” for Christmas in 1960, according to the National Toy Hall of Fame.

Good news spurs Dow to 314-point gain

9:30 a.m.

INDEX

In an effort to quiet doubts about its financial health, German lender Deutsche Bank said it would buy back $5.4 billion in debt — sending the battered stock soaring.

In New York, JPMorgan investors sent the bank’s stock higher on news that CEO Jamie Dimon purchased 500,000 shares in a show of support for the lender, which had suffered a 20% stock drop this year.

The purchase cost Dimon $26.6 million, or roughly his entire earnings, in cash and stock, last year.

The moves to bolster confiAFP/GETTY IMAGES dence come amid fears that Jamie Dimon looming economic pressures, which have sent oil prices plummeting, could crimp banks’ profits and eat away at their capital buffers. Banks from Berlin to New York have been clobbered this year — with stocks down more than a third in some cases.

“In this kind of environment we are looking at, can banks make money?” asked Fred Cannon, director of research at Keefe Bruyette and Woods.

Just the threat of increased financial strain could force U.S. banks to pull back on their dividends and other capital spending programs if it leads to failed government stress tests, Cannon said. European banks could be forced to ask for money from investors, which will lower returns for current investors, he said.

JPMorgan confirmed Dimon’s stock purchase, which was first reported by The Wall Street Journal. Shares of JPMorgan rose more than 8% to $57.49 on Friday. The stock is still down 13% this year, however.

Deutsche Bank’s New Yorklisted stock shot up 12% to $17.38 a share. The shares, which were down 33% this year as of Thursday, are still below levels hit during the financial crisis, however.

Fears about Deutsche Bank’s ability to repay its debts had sent the cost of insurance to protect against default skyrocketing. In an effort to quell those fears, Deutsche Bank on Friday said its “strong liquidity position” will allow it to acquire $3.4 billion of its European unsecured debt and $2 billion of its U.S. debt.

The tender offer will be extended for seven business days for the Europe debt and 20 business days for the U.S. debt.

NEW YORK

EDUARDO MUNOZ ALVAREZ, GETTY IMAGES

Stocks rallied in a big way Friday, getting a lift from an explosive rally in oil and good news in the beleaguered banking sector.

The Dow Jones industrials snapped a five-day losing streak, jumping 314 points, or 2%, to close at 15,974. The Standard & Poor’s 500 was up 2%, and the Nasdaq composite added 1.7%.

Oil helped stoke the rebound, which started Thursday afternoon when the Dow pulled out of a steep dive and 157 points off a 412-point loss in the last 90 minutes of trading. A barrel of U.S.produced crude was up about 12% to more than $29 a barrel — its best day since 2009 — as opti-

mism grew that OPEC might finally cut production.

Also helping was news that giant German bank Deutsche Bank announced plans to buy back more than $5 billion in debt to help cool market jitters about its financial health. Concerns about European and U.S. banks have been one of the reasons stocks have had such a rocky week.

JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon also gave the banking sector a lift when he sent a strong vote of confidence by buying 500,000 shares of his company’s stock.

Earlier, Tokyo’s Nikkei 225 index dived, sending other Asian markets down. The Japanese benchmark sank 4.8% to finish at 14,952.61 after plunging as much as 5.3% earlier after a sell-off in banking shares roiled investors in the U.S. and Europe. Shares were also weighed down by a surge in the yen’s value against the dollar.

Hong Kong’s Hang Seng fell 1.2% to 18,319.58, South Korea’s Kospi lost 1.4% to 1,835.28 and Australia’s S&P/ASX 200 dropped 1.2% to 4,765.30. Shares in New Zealand and Southeast Asia also fell. Markets in China and Taiwan are closed until Monday for Lunar New Year holidays.

In Europe, Germany’s DAX index rose 2.5%, France’s CAC 40 gained 2.5% and Britain’s FTSE 100 was up 3.1%.

The economy of the 19-nation eurozone grew by 0.3% in the last three months of 2015, figures showed Friday, following news that Germany expanded by a quarterly rate of 0.3%.

It has been a tumultuous week

for financial markets. The latest turmoil has centered on the stocks of banks.

“The slump in share markets is increasingly looking to be feeding on itself as investors fret that financial turmoil will bring on a recession and cause big problems for banks, which in turn drives more selling of shares,” Shane Oliver of AMP Capital said in a market commentary.

Investors spooked by plunging bank stocks in Europe, a further slide in oil prices and angst over Federal Reserve interest-rate policy dumped stocks Thursday and fled to safe havens such as U.S. government bonds and gold.

Fed Chair Janet Yellen voiced confidence in the U.S. economy in testimony to Congress on Thursday but acknowledged risks, saying it was too early to tell whether they are severe enough to alter the central bank’s interest-rate policies. That failed to reassure investors hoping the Fed would signal that rate hikes are off the table for this year.

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

Was that the bottom?

Market tops and market bottoms are always obvious, but only in hindsight.

Last May 19, few outside the core community of longtime market bears were talking about a top. Now it’s pretty clear it’s going to be a long time before the Dow Jones industrial average sees anything higher than its record close of 18,312.39 that day.

A key question right now is if we’ll look back in a few months and know that the rebound that started 90 minutes before the close Thursday and carried over into Friday was when the grisly start to 2016 finally ended.

$2.4T decline will bring real pain, deferred or not Q: Are ‘paper losses’ real losses?

Matt Krantz

mkrantz@usatoday.com USA TODAY

A: Paper losses may not be “realized,” but they’re still very real.

Investors suffer a paper loss when an asset declines in value before it’s sold at a loss to “realize” the loss. Even if you didn’t sell, and even if the asset might recover, in the future, you have a loss now.

The investment has declined in value.

There have been plenty of paper losses to go around this year given how poorly stocks have done in January and February. Investors have suffered a collective paper loss on the entire market of $2.4 trillion since mid-December 2015, based on the Wilshire 5000 Total Market Index.

Paper losses quantify market declines in terms of dollars and sense. Paper losses and gains are also often used to measure investors’ investment performance more accurately than just realized gains or losses.

Imagine if a money manager who picks a basket of losing stocks could declare the losses aren’t that bad since none of the securities were sold. Those losses are very real, even if the securities are still owned and even if they might possibly recover in the future. You don’t have to sell to lose money — the money is gone. But you do have to sell and lock in those paper losses if you want to use them as potential deductions at tax time.

Consumers keep shopping: Retail sales up 0.2% in January Paul Davidson @PDavidsonusat USA TODAY

Retail sales rose more than expected last month despite tumbling gasoline prices, the big Northeast snowstorm and sluggish job growth.

Sales increased 0.2%, the Commerce Department said Friday, more than the 0.1% gain economists expected. Also encouraging is the initial estimate of a 0.1% drop in December was revised to a 0.2% increase.

Excluding autos, which are vol-

JUSTIN LANE, EPA

U.S. consumers continue to defy Wall Street analysts.

atile, and gasoline, whose sales totals have been suppressed by low prices, purchases at stores and online increased a solid 0.4% last month. Economists expected a 0.3% rise.

“The markets may have decided that the U.S. is headed for recession, but obviously, no one told U.S. consumers,” economist Paul Ashworth of Capital Economics wrote in a note to clients.

Sales increased 1.6% online, 0.8% at grocery stores and general merchandise outlets, 0.6% at building-supply stores and 0.2% at clothing stores.

Those offset declines of 0.5% at

furniture stores, 2.1% at sporting good stores and 0.5% at restaurants and bars.

Consumer spending underpinned economic growth last year, helping counter the negative impact of weakness abroad, a strong dollar and a pullback in energy investment in response to low oil prices.

But spending slowed in recent months, perhaps because wage gains largely remained tepid. Pay increases showed signs of picking up in January, but employment growth slowed to 151,000 after average monthly gains of 279,000 in the fourth quarter.

Consumers continue to benefit from cheap gasoline, a sturdy labor market and reduced household debt.

Economists expect a healthy rise in consumption this year, though some worry it could be curbed by the recent market selloff if it persists and affects Americans’ sense of financial well-being.

Did Kanye West’s latest, ‘Famous,’ refer to Taylor Swift by a word that rhymes with witch? Tweeters were sure of it during West’s fashion extravaganza Thursday night at Madison Square Garden, so West denied all in a tweetstorm on Friday. He did not diss Swift, he said, but even if he did “as an artist I will express how I feel with no censorship.”

Furthermore, he had a “convo” with Swift, she thought the line was funny and gave her “blessing.” So there.

IT’S YOUR BIRTHDAY WHO’S CELEBRATING TODAY?

LOS ANGELES Even Johnny Depp, who has created many odd visions over the years, believes that people tuning into the Grammy Awards on Monday night will be struck by a highly unusual sight.

Depp himself with an electric guitar, taking the stage with rock legends Alice Cooper and Joe Perry.

Do not adjust the television, folks. This is the rock supergroup, The Hollywood Vampires.

“If I saw these guys coming out with myself, I too would think this is kind of a weird spectacle, initially,” Depp, 52, says with a grin, sitting with his bandmates before jamming at a rehearsal.

“There will be some people saying, ‘Let’s see this Hollywood-guy, actor-guy play guitar.’ ”

“But hopefully what will happen is that the song will kick in and people are going to feel their wigs starting to split,” he adds.

In case that image is not abundantly clear, Depp holds both hands to the sides of his head and makes an explosion sound.

“People’s heads are going to go like that,” he says.

Aerosmith guitarist Perry, 65, vows that his fledgling group is going to blow people away in its first major U.S. televised outing.

“I don’t say things like this often, but this band is (bleeping) good,” says Perry. “It’s time to put on the skates and walk out on the pond.”

The band’s journey began in 2011, when Cooper and Depp performed an impromptu gig of cover songs while shooting the vampire comedy-drama Dark Shadows in London. The now-sober Cooper filled Depp in about his Hollywood Vampires club, a group of rockers including Keith Moon and John Lennon who partied at Los Angeles’ Rainbow Room starting in the 1970s.

Depp, Cooper and Perry formed the group after an in-

Do not adjust the television, folks. This is the rock supergroup, The Hollywood Vampires. spired jam session at Depp’s house and put out their first album, Hollywood Vampires, on Sept. 11, 2015 — it featured cover songs honoring rockers who had passed on. The Grammy appearance will feature a new original song As Bad As I Am with lyrics inspired by Depp’s own late stepfather’s drinking toast.

The song will then transition to Motorhead’s Ace of Spades as a tribute to Motorhead lead singer Ian “Lemmy” Kilmister, who died in December.

Cooper says the Grammy tribute to Lemmy is especially appropriate, since the rocker partied often at The Rainbow Room.

“Lemmy was the mayor of The Rainbow Room. If you walked in and you didn’t see him, then

something was wrong,” Cooper says. “As a toast to Lemmy, this fits perfectly.”

Performing the new song on music’s biggest night is still boggling to Perry.

“This is breaking the rules of the Grammys. You have to have something on the radio, you have to be a known band,” Perry says.

“That they will let us be on the show and play one of our songs no one has never heard. I’m still shaking my head going, is this really going to happen?”

But with Ken Ehrlich, Grammy executive producer, even cheering on the rehearsal, saying “this is what the Grammys are all about,” it’s clear this is very real.

Depp slings his Duesenberg guitar over his shoulder and plugs in next to Perry and Cooper along with Guns N’ Roses drummer Matt Sorum and bassist Duff McKagan, And it’s also clear, things will get loud.

“There will be rumbling in ears and there might be blood trickling out of one ear,” Depp warns audience members.

Adds Cooper: “Then we’ll know we’ve done our job,”

Tune in as ‘Vinyl,’ and Cannavale, spin ’70s music scene Music saves the savage beast.

It’s obvious Richie Finestra needs saving — so much so that you may initially wonder why Mick Jagger, Martin Scorsese and Terence Winter, the high-powered team behind Vinyl (Sunday, 9 p.m. ET/ PT, eeeg out of four), would build this big-swing HBO drama around him. The head of struggling American Century Records, Richie is a selfish, cheating, cokeaddicted liar and schemer who carelessly ruins lives and careers, when he doesn’t just end them.

So why watch this show, set in New York’s exploding music world in the early ’70s? For one, because for all his faults, Richie has an artist’s love of and feel for music, and while that may not redeem him, it does make him more interesting than your standard corporate goon. And for another, Richie is played by Bobby Cannavale, who turns in yet another of those startling, careerresetting performances that this golden TV era seems to produce with ferocious regularity.

“Ferocious” is actually a fairly good word to describe both Cannavale’s stellar turn and Vinyl’s two-hour premiere, written by

Richie Finestra (Bobby Cannavale) is a cokeaddicted schemer who has an epiphany at the start of Vinyl.

Winter and George Mastras and directed by Scorsese. Instantly, beautifully, Scorsese sets the scene and shows us the dichotomy that makes Richie tick: Snorting coke from the deal he just scored, Richie sees kids rushing toward the Mercer Arts Center to see the New York Dolls and he follows, drawn by the crowd and the beat.

That scene leads to an epiphany that is inspired by (but is not

true to) history, and to one of interesting Scorsese’s most blends of fact and drug-induced hallucination, a scene sold perfectly by Cannavale. But before that moment arrives, the story will dance around in time, as Vinyl explains how Richie founded his company, and why he and his partners (including Ray Romano and J.C. MacKenzie) are on the brink of selling it.

So we meet the people who got Richie where he is, from his wife Devon (Olivia Wilde), who tries to keep him sober, to blues singer Lester Grimes (Ato Essandoh), who was washed aside in Richie’s wake. And all the time, as we wander through recording studios and behind the scenes at concerts, Richie is searching for the Next Big Thing, which just might be a punk band fronted by Kip Stevens — played by Jagger’s son, James.

What follows is a sometimes humorous, sometimes nostalgic, sometimes bumpy ride through the era, with a story that often seems to halt just when it’s picking up momentum.

Still, every time the story falters, the characters’ and the show’s obvious love for popular music in all its forms lifts it back up. In some scenes, that music is used to give insights into the characters; in others, it’s used to illustrate a point about the music industry. But it always drives Vinyl along, and that drive always leaves you thinking that something different is happening here, and that something important is being said about the place where art and commerce collide.

And that’s reason enough to listen.

KU, OU have hard act to follow

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

Kansas has a few options to guard Hield

Norman, Okla. — Proud of his team for outscoring, outscrapping, outlasting Oklahoma in a threeovertime battle between the then-No. 1 team in the AP poll (Kansas) and No. 1 squad in the USA Today coaches poll (OU), Bill Self spoke from the heart Jan. 4 in the winner’s locker room in Allen Fieldhouse.

“He said no matter who won the game he’d be happy with the effort we gave and things we did on the court,” KU junior guard Frank Mason III said of the scene after the Jayhawks’ 109-106 victory.

“Being out there we all realized how good a game it is and just to be part of it is something special. We took the win so he was definitely happy about that,” Mason added.

Self, who is 15-3 all-time as KU coach versus OU entering today’s 1:30 p.m., rematch between the No. 6-rated Jayhawks (20-4, 8-3) and No. 3 Sooners (20-3, 8-3) in Noble Center, acknowledged his emotion after that thriller.

“I don’t know if jubilation would be the right word. It was more relief,” Self said. “I meant what I said. It’s one of those games you are proud to be part

of. If it had gone the other way, ‘Hey guys, we’ve got a good team. They’ve got a good team.’ I don’t think there would be anything to be disappointed with your team. You’d be disappointed because you lost a home game in the league race, but not disappointed with your team if things didn’t work out the way we wanted.”

HIGH SCHOOL BASKETBALL

The better half

Norman, Okla. — The last time they played, one of the things I was most excited about watching was how Kansas decided to guard Oklahoma’s Buddy Hield.

And by saying that, I’m going on the assumption that Hield is, in fact, guardable.

The Jayhawks tried a handful of different looks, with Frank Mason getting the bulk of the time guarding Hield, and I would imagine that today’s rematch in Norman again will feature a few different Jayhawks taking a turn on the conference’s leading scorer and heavy favorite for national player of the year.

Here’s a look at KU’s options: Wayne Selden — KU coach Bill Self was asked Thursday if Selden would start on Hield and Self inhaled, cocked his head and said, “I don’t know.” Selden has the size and strength to stay with Hield but showed in the first meeting that he’s not quite there in quickness. If Selden spends much time guarding Hield, look for him to rack up the fouls as Hield goes at him and by him while attacking off the dribble.

Frank Mason — Mason, though a few inches shorter, is the KU player best equipped to match Hield in terms of strength and quickness, but checking the OU star took a lot out of Mason the last time — granted, the three overJohn Young/Journal-World Photo times had something to do LAWRENCE HIGH’S JUSTIN ROBERTS (5) LEANS IN AS HE DRIVES PAST Olathe Northwest’s Jace Kline.

“This is a great opportunity for our Jayhawks to be around the USA Volleyball coaches and some of the most elite players in the country,” Kansas head coach Ray Bechard said. “Even though it is a short time, they will be able to improve their game and seek a potential future in representing our country on the court.”

Havili, Payne, Wait and Rigdon were all starters on KU’s 2015 squad that reached its first-ever appearance in the NCAA Final Four.

Lokedi sets 5,000 record at Iowa State Ames, Iowa — Sophomore Sharon Lokedi erased the six-year-old 5,000-meter school record by nearly 30 seconds and posted one of the NCAA’s fastest times of the year after she competed Friday night at the ISU Classic inside the Lied Recreation Center.

Lokedi crossed the tape in 15:57.95, rewriting her previous personal record by over a minute and smashing the school record.

Senior Evan Landes also saw a career performance on the Lied Center track Friday night. The Mulvane product ran to a 26thplace finish by way of a personal best outing in the 3,000 meters.

He crossed the finish in 8:09.14 to take third in his heat. The time has only been bested by nine other KU males in the program’s history and ranks Landes third in the conference standings this season.

KANSAS FOOTBALL

Source: Mitchell leaving KU

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

The man who brought more four-star football recruits to Lawrence during the past six years than any other coach is leaving Kansas.

A source close to the Kansas football program on Friday morning confirmed that running backs coach and recruiting coordinator Reggie Mitchell is leaving KU for a similar position on Bret Bielema’s staff at Arkansas.

Reached by phone Friday night by the JournalWorld, Mitchell said the decision to leave KU was difficult but that a new challenge in the SEC at a “special place” was too good to pass up.

“I spent 16 years of my life here,” said Mitchell, who is expected to start his new job next week.

“And I always said I’d never leave unless it was a great opportunity. So it was tough, but I’m very excited and honored about the chance to join the Razorback family and to work for Coach B.” The move, which no doubt comes with a raise and offers Mitchell a better opportunity to rack up victories in the immediate future, marks the second member of KU coach David Beaty’s staff to leave Lawrence after one year under Beaty and represents the third full-time assistant to be removed from Beaty’s cabinet.

Gary Hyman, who spent 2015 as KU’s special teams coordinator, was reassigned in the offseason but is still with the pro-

KANSAS RECRUITING COORDINATOR AND RUNNING BACKS COACH REGGIE MITCHELL is reportedly leaving KU for a similar position at Arkansas. gram. Kevin Kane gave up his post as KU’s linebackers coach to take over as the defensive coordinator at Northern Illinois.

Mitchell, 55, worked under four head coaches at KU — five if you count 2014 interim coach Clint Bowen — and developed a reputation, both at Kansas and previous stops at Michigan State and Illinois, as one of the top recruiters in the nation.

According to a Friday morning report from SI.com, Mitchell will fill an opening left by former Arkansas special teams coordinator and running backs coach Jemal Singleton, who left last week to become the running backs coach for the NFL’s Indianapolis Colts.

Brandon Bourbon, a former four-star prospect whom Mitchell inspired to pick Kansas over Stanford back in 2010, said he was surprised to learn about Mitchell’s depar-

ture and sad that KU was losing someone so familiar with the program.

“He’s been the one constant all these years,” Bourbon told the JournalWorld. “He’s a great recruiter and it’s crazy to think he won’t be with the program any more.”

Beyond his ability to entice Bourbon and others to join the Jayhawks, Bourbon said he always admired the way Mitchell pushed KU’s running backs.

“I like that he brought in all the aspects, running, blocking, pass catching and really tried to make us complete backs,” Bourbon said. “Plus, he was really good at emphasizing the discipline aspect and demanded that we were sharp in everything we did.”

With 33 years as college assistant, Mitchell was by far the most experienced coach on Beaty’s staff.

According to a source in the athletic department, KU made significant efforts to keep Mitchell, who was in Arkansas on Wednesday.

The same source said KU already had received several inquiries about KU’s new job opening and added that attaching the title of recruiting coordinator was not a requirement.

Despite Mitchell’s years of service and quality recruiting, multiple sources in the football program used the same language on Friday when asked about Mitchell’s departure. “(We) wish him the best, but the train keeps moving,” they said.

Olathe South drops Free State basmith@ljworld.com

Olathe — For all the smart ball movement and execution Free State High’s girls basketball team displayed Friday night at Olathe South, between one mishap-heavy stretch in the second half and coming up on the wrong side of mismatches in the paint, the Firebirds couldn’t knock off the Sunflower League’s most consistent program.

Ranked No. 2 in Class 6A, the Falcons had four players in double figures and defeated the sixthranked Firebirds, 49-43.

FSHS (11-5) led on two occasions in the third quarter, but trailed by four entering the fourth after committing five turnovers in the first five-plus minutes after halftime.

Although Clark’s bucket made it a one-possession game, O-South senior guard Mat Baldeh hit one of his two free throws to seal it with two seconds on the clock.

Baldeh shot 9-for-13 in the win and scored 20 first-half points on his way to a game-high 28.

all of their second-half points came on either layups, feeding the ball inside or drawing fouls on attacks. So even though Free State junior Madison Piper, held without a shot attempt in the third quarter, got going in the fourth with 10 of her game-high 15 points, the Firebirds just couldn’t keep up.

“As our scorers had us hanging in there, their post players would dive into the post, and seal and they would just dump it in and finish,” Duncan said.

Hoops CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1C

KU during the first meeting survived a 46-point outing from senior guard Buddy Hield.

Hield tied Kansas State’s Mike Wroblewski for highest-scoring performance by an opposing player in Allen Fieldhouse in school history.

Wroblewski’s mark came back in 1962.

KU’s Perry Ellis, Devonté Graham and Wayne Selden Jr., countered with 27, 22 and 21 points respectively.

“The only time that I remember looking down to the Sooner bench, one of their assistants, Mike Shepherd (director of basketball operations) was kind of laughing, and I started laughing, too, because it was ridiculous,” Self said.

“The only other time I remember doing that, if you guys remember in the Big 12 finals when we played Texas (88-84 KU overtime win in 2007), I mean it was a joke. We couldn’t guard them.

They couldn’t guard us.

I just keep looking down at Rick (Barnes, Texas coach) and he looks down at me, and, ‘Hey, this is fun to watch.’

“But I will say this,” Self continued, “it’s one thing to have a H-O-RS-E contest at home. It’s another thing to have a H-O-R-S-E contest on the road. And when you’re playing against the best shooting team in America (OU averages 84.1 ppg off 47.3 percent shooting; KU 83.0 ppg, 49 percent) then you don’t want it to be a H-O-R-S-E contest, so we’ve got to do something to not make them play well and not be as comfortable as what they were in our building, even though we did a decent job they were still comfortable.”

The first KU-OU game has drawn acclaim nationally as the “game of the year” in the 2015-16 season.

“Maybe, maybe not,” KU sophomore guard Graham said, asked if today’s sequel could be as exciting as the original.

“Hopefully it’s going to be a great game. All the hype is still going to be there. Both teams are going to come out and put it all on the line. Hopefully it’ll be as good as the first one.”

Graham remembers being flooded with dozens of text messages after the Jan. 4 thriller. KU is 7-3 since that game; OU 8-2. The two teams enter today’s play tied with West Virginia for first place in the league race.

“People were saying how happy they were for me, seeing me on TV, happy we won. It was good and all, but you’ve got to move forward,” Graham said.

OU was not a oneman show during that three-OT classic in Lawrence. Junior guard Jordan Woodard scored 27 points off 9-of-20 shooting (six of nine from three), while senior guard Isaiah Cousins missed 12 of 14 shots en route to four points. Senior forward Ryan Spangler and soph Khadeem Lattin had 14 and 10 points respectively. Spangler had 18 rebounds; Lattin 14.

“They are both great rebounders. They are both great players,” KU’s Ellis, who had 13 boards

that day, said of Spangler and Lattin. “They can get things going offensively too.”

A sidebar today remains KU’s performance on the road. The Jayhawks are 2-3 in league games, winning their last outing at TCU (75-56) that snapped a threegame skid.

“We showed a tremendous amount of what we can do defensive-wise against West Virginia (in Tuesday’s 74-63 home win),” Ellis said. “It’s a mindset of helping each other out. If we take that on the road, we’ll be good.”

“In order to win this league you’ve got to go beat top 15 teams on the road because there’s so many of them. Texas won at West Virginia. Baylor won at Iowa State. OU played unbelievably well at Iowa State and won big at Baylor,” Self said, noting KU’s win at San Diego State is looking good right now with the Aztecs 18-7 overall and 11-1 in Mountain West play.

“The other teams in our league have done it and certainly we need to do that as well,” he added. l OU coach Lon Kruger to the Tulsa World on today’s game: “It’s been in the conversation a lot — I mean media-wise.

Everyone talks about it of course, which is fine.

Naturally our guys I’m sure are looking forward to it like the KU guys are.

Two clubs battled the first time. They have a lot of respect for each other.

It’s going to be another tough match Saturday.”

Forward Spangler to the Tulsa World on KU: “The (Jayhawks) post up a lot, throw it down low a lot. They’ve still got guards that can shoot.

They’re always a good team. They’re hard to beat.”

Spangler on the first meeting to the Norman Transcript: “We proved to ourselves we can go into any place and play.

Obviously, we’d like a couple possessions here and there back. If we played one or two defensive possessions great, or maybe one or two offensive possessions, we win that game.”

Guard Woodard, who played 50 minutes, on the first KU-OU meeting to the Norman Transcript: “I remember a lot of it, but it was an every-possession game. It was just a great basketball game.” l The series: KU leads the all-time series, 143-66.

The Jayhawks have won 14 of the last 16 meetings. ... KU is 49-42 versus OU in Norman, including an 18-15 mark in Noble Center. ... Since the inception of the Big 12 Conference, KU is 22-6 against OU; 20-4 in regular-season and 2-2 in the Big 12 tourney. ...
