Brownback proposes significant changes to state’s personnel policies Many workers would have civil service protections removed

By Peter Hancock Twitter: @LJWpqhancock

Topeka — Gov. Sam Brownback’s administration is proposing large-scale changes in personnel policies for state workers by removing many of them from civil service protections and cutting the number of hours employees can accumulate in paid vacation or sick leave.

Secretary of Administration Jim Clark announced those plans Wednesday, along with a plan to reopen all of the state’s negotiated agreements with labor unions, saying they are in-

The announcement came one day after Brownback, a Republican, rescinded a 2007 executive order by former Gov. Kathleen Sebelius, a Democrat, that banned state agencies from discriminating on the basis of sexual orientation or gender identity. But Clark insisted

the two announcements were unrelated.

“The answer is no,” Clark said when asked whether gay, lesbian or transgender employees would be treated differently following Tuesday’s announcement. “All we’re doing is following the law. ... We’re going back to what state law is.”

Clark’s announcement Wednesday involved more technical changes in personnel policies, some of which the administration can do through regulatory changes, while others would require legislative approval.

The changes requiring legislative approval include: l Changing a statute to give state agencies broader authority to change positions from “classified” jobs, which are governed by civil service procedures, to “unclassified” positions, which do not have civil service protection.

Topeka — Scores of people from nearly every region of Kansas packed into a Senate committee room Wednesday, while others testified by phone and Skype, to express support of and opposition to a bill that would move city and school board elections to November and make them partisan.

Most of those supporting the bill said it would improve voter turnout in local elections, which are currently LEGISLATURE held in the spring of oddnumbered years.

Janet B. Rasmussen Rasmussen, Janet (Burdick) 85, of Marshfield, February 8th 2015 passed away peacefully in her sleep surrounded by family at Proprietors Green of Marshfield.

Beloved Wife of the late George A. Rasmussen, loving sister of Lois and her husband Ed Young, sister Karen and husband Tom Illingworth, the late Mary Lynn Stewart, daughter of the late John N. Burdick and Bernadette (Fitzgerald) Burdick, dear Mother of Charlotte M. Rasmussen of Marshfield, Neil M. Rasmussen and his wife Stephanie of Lawrence Kansas, Mark Rasmussen and wife Iani Moreno of Beverly, loving grandmother of Michael and Nicholas Rees, Eli Rasmussen and Abby Wilson. Janet was born in Buffalo New York where she attended Case Western Reserve receiving her Bachelor’s degree with distinction and where she met her beloved husband George.

Janet and George moved to Westwood Massachusetts in 1969 where they raised their children and developed many dear lifelong friendships. They then moved to Lawrence Kansas where Janet continued her education at the University of

Additional changes the administration plans to adopt through regulatory changes include: l Changing civil service rules so employees could only appeal a performance review if they receive a rating lower than “meets expectations.” Currently, classified workers can appeal any review rating below the highest rating available. l Moving toward a blanket “paid time off” policy to replace separate categories of vacation time and sick leave. l Reducing the payout of accumulated vacation time when a worker leaves state employment to just one year’s worth of accumulated leave. l Amending the state’s layoff procedure so that employees would be pro-

tected from layoff based on their performance evaluations instead of seniority.

Finally, Clark said, the state plans to reopen all of the “memoranda of understanding” with various collective bargaining units in order to make the policies in those contracts more consistent.

“Right now, we have over a dozen different MOAs, and a lot of those create exceptions to our statewide policies for particular groups or particular types,” said Kraig Knowlton, director of personnel services.

“We’re just looking to establish more consistent policies.”

Shifting workers into unclassified positions would remove them from civil service protections, which are meant to prevent workers from being fired or demoted for political reasons. But Clark said the goal is not to make it easier for the state to fire employees, but rather to make the workforce more flexible because supervisors can more easily change the job description and duties of an unclassified employee.

The department was unable to say how many employees would be affected by the proposed changes, or how much money the state would save in the process.

There was no immediate public reaction from any of the state’s collective bargaining units.

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 was raised in Carroll County, Missouri, graduating in 1951 from Stet High School.

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.

KU policy protects LGBT workers

By Sara Shepherd Twitter: @saramarieshep

Kansas University has its own policy protecting LGBT students and employees from discrimination, and it’s not affected by the governor’s actions on a similar state order, Chancellor Bernadette Gray-Little reminded the KU community on Wednesday.

In a memo to students, faculty and staff, Gray-Little said the university is committed to being an inclusive place where all feel welcome.

“We want to reassure you

retary, 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, and that any expansion should be done through legislation.

The governor’s office has not proposed any protective legislation and did not address why the order was being rescinded now after it had been in place for eight years.

Topeka — A Kansas House panel began two days of discussions Wednesday about whether there are ways that the state can help keep married couples from divorcing.

Wichita Republican Rep. Steve Brunk called the hearings in the House Federal and State Affairs Committee, which he chairs, saying the state has an interest in keeping marriages together. Brunk, who opposes allowing same-sex couples to marry, said it was too early to say if the hearings will result in specific legislation, but that “Kansans can get a divorce very, very quickly,” which has a high social cost.

Topeka — A committee of the Kansas Board of Regents will soon start reviewing how the legalization of same-sex marriage could affect state universities.

Regent Fred Logan on Wednesday said he expects the U.S. Supreme Court to issue some kind of ruling later this year

He said KUMC supports Gov. Sam Brownback’s proposal to raise the cigarette tax by $1.50 a pack, noting that a 10 percent increase in cigarette taxes has been shown to reduce adult tobacco use by 4 percent and youth usage by 7 percent.

But he also said at least some of the revenue from the higher tax should be reinvested by funding smoking cessation programs. Brownback’s proposed budget calls for putting all the revenue from that tax into the state general fund to help fill the state’s projected budget shortfalls.

that will uphold a constitutional right for samesex couples to marry.

“At a minimum, it seems to me they are going to require states to recognize marriages held in other states,” Logan said. “The other possibility is that they’ll just strike down state bans on samesex marriage.”

Logan noted that the Supreme Court this week refused to hear an appeal

in an Alabama case where a lower court had declared that state’s ban on gay marriage unconstitutional. But it has agreed to hear appeals in April involving cases from the Sixth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals on marriage laws in Michigan, Ohio, Kentucky and Tennessee.

Last year, the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals, which has jurisdiction over federal courts in

Kansas, struck down gay marriage bans in Utah and Oklahoma, and the Supreme Court refused to hear an appeal in that case.

Since then, a federal judge in Kansas City has ordered that gay marriages can proceed in Douglas and Sedgwick counties. County officials in several other counties have also started granting marriage li-

censes to same-sex couples, although the state of Kansas still refuses to recognize those marriages.

A Supreme Court ruling to legalize same-sex marriage could have broad implications for universities, ranging from policies on student housing to health insurance and other employee benefits for university employees.

larger undertakings going on this year: l The completion of a new $14.5 million facility to house the Pubic Works Department. Staff is expected to move into the building in April. l The beginning of $6.5 million in renovations for the Douglas County Fairgrounds. The county still must determine how to cover over $3 million in costs and submit final design proposals to the city of Lawrence, but Assistant County Administrator Sarah Plinsky thinks work will

begin after the county fair ends in the summer. l A total of $2.38 million in road safety improvements for a threemile stretch of East 1700 Road, between North 400 Road and North 700 Road north of Baldwin City. l Replacing the roof for the United Way of Douglas County, which rents out a county-owned building. It will cost $291,000.

Other projects, like expanding the county jail and building a new mental health crisis intervention center, were taken

off the official list, since many aspects of those projects — like a price tag and construction year — are yet to be determined.

Also taken off the official list is a project for building a new Day School facility for the county’s Youth Services department. If a new facility were built, Plinsky said the county hopes to renovate the current one into bed space for juvenile detention.

The Day School provides school for juveniles involved in the court system.

A Topeka man pleaded guilty on Wednesday to aggravated burglary and theft charges stemming from crimes he committed in Lawrence in 2013, Douglas County District Attorney Charles Branson said in a news release.

In October 2013, Robert Lee Davis, 39, stole a credit card out of a basement apartment in the 900 block of Ohio Street, which he entered without permission, the release said. Davis then used the stolen credit card at several Topeka businesses.

Davis is scheduled to be sentenced at 4 p.m.

“Our smoking rate is going in the wrong direction as well,” he said. “In 1999 we were eighth in the United States. We’re currently 31st.”

He said smoking-related health problems cost the state $1.12 billion a year, including $196 million in the state’s Medicaid program alone.

While all of the university campuses are moving toward becoming totally tobacco-free, with the eventual goal of banning all tobacco use in university buildings, residence halls and outdoor areas, Girod said the state should do more by increasing its cigarette and tobacco taxes.

Lawmaker wants foster program modeled on ‘Leave it to Beaver’ Topeka (ap) — A Kansas state senator wants to create a new foster care program that would provide higher state reimbursements to married couples who don’t smoke or drink, regularly a t t e n d chu r c h services or other social group meetings and either h o m e - Knox school or send the foster children to private schools.

The program proposed

by Republican Sen. Forrest Knox, of Altoona, would require a “husband and wife team” to have been married faithfully for more than seven years and for at least one spouse to not work outside the home, The Wichita Eagle reported. Knox said the program would provide stability for children and that he hopes it would gradually replace the current foster care system.

Critics blasted the proposal for requiring a particular kind of lifestyle and rejecting nontraditional foster homes that provide excellent care.

They also questioned a part of the bill that would set up a fund to reimburse the families in the CARE program at a “rate substantially higher than that of other foster care homes,” which Knox said is necessary because the couples would have more requirements than other foster families.

A Senate panel is expected to discuss the bill today.

“I think it could be problematic legally,” Doug Bonney, an attorney for the American Civil Liberties Union, told The Associated Press. “First of all the provision that the family has to include a husband and a wife, that is a problem and that may well be unconstitutional as we sort out the gay marriage issue and this preferring opposite-sex couples is going to raise constitutional issues. It’s also totally unnecessary. There are a lot of same-sex couples currently providing foster care at a very high level in Kansas.”

Knox didn’t immediately respond to a phone message Wednesday seeking comment. He and his wife have fostered and adopted four boys.

He said social workers

often tell him horror stories about other foster families.

“They said we were the only normal home that they visited,” Knox said.

“My conclusion is that we need more normal homes as foster homes. And how do you get normal? When I say normal, I just mean an ordinary home with a mom and dad who loves the kids.”

He cited the 1950s sitcom “Leave it to Beaver” as an example of the types of families that would be part of the program.

Senate Vice President Jeff King, R-Independence, the chair of the Judiciary Committee, told the newspaper he would not comment on the bill before the hearing but Sen. David Haley, D-Kansas City, the committee’s ranking minority member, had some concerns.

“If this is the Cadillac standard that they want to put in place for foster care child providers, why is it necessary to have a certain lifestyle in place?”

Haley said. “Can’t children be raised by people who don’t go to church every Sunday or couples that might imbibe with legal activities like alcohol or tobacco?”

Lobbyists looped in about budget earlier than disclosed Topeka — Newly released emails obtained by The Topeka Capital-Journal show the governor’s administration informed two lobbyists about budget proposals weeks earlier than previously disclosed.

The emails showed they were included on a Dec. 6 email thread. President Kent Glasscock of Kansas

State University Institute for Commercialization also was included.

The newspaper made an open records request to the school for emails between Glasscock and the state’s budget director.

Most of the emails’ content was redacted.

The university on Wednesday said Glasscock

has consulted with several governors on budget issues and it wasn’t appropriate to comment on who was consulted. Gov. Sam Brownback’s spokeswoman says he consulted with several people during budget discussions.

The Wichita Eagle first reported that the budget director emailed the two lobbyists on Dec. 23.

EDITORIALS

Political agenda Why is the state trying to inject partisan politics into city and school board elections across the state?

E

very local school board, city council and city commission in Kansas should be sending the same message to their legislators that the Lawrence City Commission and school board sent this week.

School Board President Shannon Kimball and Mayor Mike Amyx have sent letters to Kansas legislators opposing a bill that would turn local elections into partisan contests. The switch would be part of a measure that also would move those elections to November in even-numbered years and combine them with state and national races.

Two letters from elected officials in Lawrence are unlikely to put a halt to this legislation, but an outpouring from elected local officials across the state who share the same concerns might have an impact.

Those who are pushing this legislation say it would boost voter participation in local elections. It’s true that voter turnout for local elections is low, but there are other ways, such as increased use of mail ballots, to address that problem, and whatever benefits moving local elections to November might have in terms of turnout would be far outweighed by the negatives of that action.

Kimball points to the fact that school board members elected in November would have to either take office in the middle of the district’s fiscal and academic year or wait seven months to begin their terms on July 1 as currently required. Amyx expressed concern that local races would get lost among state and national campaigns, making it less likely that voters would devote enough time to educating themselves on local candidates and issues.

The biggest concern of this legislation, however, is that it would require candidates for city commission and school board to declare and run with a party affiliation. Adding that layer of partisanship to elections and local governing bodies benefits no one. It would encourage voters to make decisions based on party affiliation rather than examining local issues and encourage officeholders to be loyal to a partisan agenda that probably has nothing to do with the local issues being considered. As Amyx said, “We prefer the voters focus on issues and individuals, not political party labels.”

Both Amyx and some school board members also raised the issue of whether state and federal employees or military personnel would be allowed to seek local office or be barred from such races because of restrictions on government employees serving in partisan positions.

It seems that a number of election measures under consideration in the Legislature — such as allowing voters to cast a straight-party ticket by checking a single box on their ballots — are designed to advance a partisan goal. If that’s not the case with this measure, it’s hard to understand why the state would see the need to disrupt a local election process that no one at the local level has a problem with and many say they vastly prefer.

If state legislators are looking for a problem to solve, local officials should let them know in no uncertain terms that they should look somewhere other than the local election calendar.

Some media lies worse than others There’s this speech I give my students. Distilled, it goes like this.

“Your primary asset as a journalist is not your dogged curiosity, your talent for research or your ability to make prose sing on deadline.

No, your one indispensable asset is your credibility. If you are not believable, nothing else matters.”

Which brings us, inevitably, to Brian Williams. The NBC Nightly News anchor saw his career crumple like used Kleenex last week after he repeated one time too many a story he has been

Leonard Pitts Jr. lpitts@miamiherald.com

“

Fox is what Fox is, but its distortions and mendacities are generally only mistaken for gospel by a stratum of the electorate already predisposed to its bizarre worldview.” telling for years: how a U.S. military helicopter on which he was a passenger was shot down over Iraq in 2003.

But the man who was flight engineer on that copter said on Facebook that Williams was never on it. Instead, he was on the one trailing it.

Williams apologized for conflating the two, blaming the “fog” of memory.

The incident was remarkably similar to candidate Hillary Clinton’s false 2008 claim that she came under sniper fire as first lady during a 1996 visit to Bosnia. As it turns out, an American

dignitary was shot at in Bosnia — just not Clinton. Rather, it was then-Sen. Olympia Snowe, six months before.

Then, as now, one is tempted to ascribe the lapse to false memory, that phenomenon where you recall with clarity things that never happened.

Then, as now, one is hampered by the sheer drama of the events in question. A person may honestly misremember eating at a certain restaurant or seeing a given movie.

But you’d think you’d be pretty clear on whether or not somebody almost killed you.

So now, people are poring over old newscasts to determine whether this is an isolated incident. A statement by Williams of seeing bodies outside his hotel during Hurricane Katrina was initially mocked, but has been found on closer inspection to be more credible than first believed.

Fans of Fox “News,” at least to judge from my email queue, are having a ball with all this. I wrote a column a few weeks back blasting Fox for its habitual, ideology-driv-

en inaccuracy. Attacking Fox is not for the faint of heart.

Its viewers (like Rush Limbaugh’s listeners) tend to take it personally, responding with such a nasty, visceral outrage that a body might think you’d blasphemed their deity rather than criticized their news outlet. I savaged CNN in this space last year and while some folks took issue, no one called me a “bleephole” or invited me to “bleep” myself.

With Fox fans, that’s the salutation.

So this latest news brings a flood of email crowing over Williams’ troubles and demanding I give him equal treatment.

As I wrote in the aforementioned column, serious people do not take Fox seriously. Indeed, consider the level of angst, the sense of expectations betrayed, that has attended Williams’ failure and ask yourself: Would there be a similar outpouring if someone at Fox had told this whopper?

Unlikely.

Fox is what Fox is, but its distortions and mendacities

PUBLIC FORUM

Recall?

To the editor: Looking over the JournalWorld recently, I noticed mental illness in several headlines. To my surprise, not one of these stories was about the Kansas Legislature. What’s wrong with these people?

Did I hear someone say “recall”?

Fred Sack, Lawrence

Arts’ value To the editor: As one who is in the business of piano service, let me respond to the governor’s comment about Sumner Academy’s new grand piano. The fact is that, under budget pressure, our public schools have for years been phasing pianos out of their music programs, replacing them with electronic keyboards, which are inferior and far cheaper, and hanging on to one performance-quality piano for each high school auditorium, to be used in rehearsals and public events.

The use these pianos receive goes well beyond the demands placed on the typical home piano. Better quality is truly cost-effective.

Sumner’s new piano replaced a 50-year-old instrument, and the cost was within the fair market price for a better, though not extravagant, performance-grade grand piano.

This is just a guess, but I somehow doubt that the governor would view a similar outlay on high quality equipment for math, science or even physical education as an extravagance.

Regardless, there should be no doubt about the place art education holds in his new economic vision for Kansas.

I for one am grateful my children’s public school experience in Lawrence included

a first-rate arts curriculum and, yes, a suitably equipped auditorium. Incidentally, the children are now in the process of deciding where they will look for jobs, settle and begin building their futures. I hope they will find Kansas, including its schools, as culturally fluent as other places they might consider. If they conclude otherwise, it’s an economic problem for Kansas.

Harry Miller, Lawrence

Battling sexism To the editor: As far back as I can remember, my body has been sexualized. Throughout my childhood, I remember being taught to cross my legs when I wore a skirt, and even though all the boys in the neighborhood walked around without shirts, girls cannot do it. It is not lady-like. At the ages of 5 and 6, this did not register with me. Why do I have to worry about people seeing my body?

This semester I decided to take my first women’s studies class in attempt to become the most well-rounded feminist I could be. Over and over, I hear my female classmates discuss instances where they have been assaulted for trying to live out their day-to-day lives solely for being a woman.

I do not want to live in a society that leaves me frightened in my own community.

Even if my dress is too short or my shirt fits too snug, I do not want that to be an invitation. Just because men tend to have higher sex drives, and I am a little intoxicated, does not mean I am asking for it.

We need to teach young boys to not just grow up to be men, but to be gentlemen, who view women as their equal and not just an object

are generally only mistaken for gospel by a stratum of the electorate already predisposed to its bizarre worldview. The rest of us like to think we can expect a higher standard from the old guard of the news media, meaning the likes of CBS, NBC and The New York Times. And usually we can.

But every time that belief is betrayed — meaning not garden variety errors of fact, but catastrophic failures of journalistic integrity — the damage is exponentially greater precisely because the level of trust is exponentially higher.

Such failures feed the disaffection and cynicism of a politically polarized nation where the universally accepted fact is an endangered species.

It’s a state of affairs that makes it hard to run a country. Or to be one.

So people asking that I give Brian Williams equal treatment are missing the point. If, indeed, he lied, then his sins are not equal to Fox’s.

They are worse.

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for Feb. 12, 1915: years “The one hundred ago and fifth anniverIN 1915 sary of the birth of Abraham Lincoln was very fittingly observed in Lawrence today. All of the banks and a number of the business men in Lawrence observed the day by closing their places of business.... The city schools were closed this afternoon so that the children might have occasion to remember the man who did so much for the country of which every citizen is so proud. Studies on the life of Lincoln were given in the schools this morning and in a number of instances short programs were given. Readings from the works of the emancipator were made and the study of his life was taken up.”

“When C. C. Lewis and Sim Calley, of Wagon Mound, New Mexico, bought the herd of white face cattle from Dode Williams, of Lone Star, a short time ago, it gave Jacob Radsky an opportunity to show them what a fine opportunity for a feeding station existed in Lawrence. The result is that these gentlemen have contracted with the Lawrence Cannery for all of the silage for the next two years and have leased the grounds near the cannery and also the triangular spot in the ‘Y’ for feeding stations and will begin feeding cattle in Lawrence next fall. Just how much this will mean to Lawrence is hard to estimate. It will mean that several thousand head of cattle will be shipped in and out of the city each winter and the time they will remain here will depend upon their condition for market and the state of the market. The feeding of this stock will not only make a demand for feed, but it will give employment to men at a time of year when work is scarce.”

McKinley said Wednesday that “at least one” of the victims knew the suspects.

“We’re focusing on specific individuals, but have no one in custody,” McKinley said. “We are discussing (issuing) warrants and will forward our information to the district attorney’s office.”

Police will release the suspects’ names if they need the public’s help to locate them, but at this point, McKinley said, that isn’t necessary.

“If it comes to a point where we need to be able to name a suspect and put that out publicly for the public’s help, we will,” McKinley said.

McKinley said that because the nature of the crime did not appear to be random, the risk to public safety with the suspects at large was low.

“Is there a likelihood that they will be coming to your home?” McKinley said. “No, that’s not likely.”

The second of four candidates for dean of the Kansas University School of Architecture, Design and Planning will visit campus this week.

David Edelman will give a public presentation from 1 p.m. to 2:15 p.m. Friday at The Forum in Marvin Hall, 1465 Jayhawk Blvd. A reception will follow.

Edelman is professor of planning and was director of the School of Planning for 11 years at the College of Design, Architecture, Art and Planning of the University of Cincinnati.

He was formerly chairman of the Department of Urban Environmental Management at the Institute for Housing and Urban Development Studies of Erasmus University, Rotterdam.

Professionally certified in the U.S., Switzerland and the Netherlands, he is a member of the Board of Trustees of the Ohio State chapter of the American Planning Association and is a Fellow of the American Institute of Certified Planners.

Lawyers criticize court reform bills Topeka (ap) — Lawyers’ associations say proposed changes to the way state Supreme Court justices are selected would politicize the court and weaken the judiciary’s independence.

The House Judiciary Committee held a hearing Wednesday on two measures that would amend the parts of the Kansas Constitution pertaining to the selection of Supreme Court justices. One measure would have justices elected to six-year terms in partisan elections, while the other would allow the governor to appoint them.

Republican Rep. John Rubin of Shawnee said he believes a 2005 decision by the court requiring the state to spend more money on schools showed that both the current justices and the process that selected them are flawed.

Topeka (ap) — Cities and counties in Kansas oppose a southeast Kansas lawmaker’s proposal to limit what government agencies can charge for fulfilling requests for public records.

The Topeka Capital-Journal reports that the Senate Federal and State Affairs Committee had a hearing but took no action Tuesday on a bill from Republican Sen. Jacob LaTurner of Pittsburg.

The measure would make documents free when less than an hour of staff time went into retrieving a record and the record is 25 or fewer pages. If more than 25 pages are produced, governments could charge no more than 25 cents per page.

League of Kansas Municipalities attorney Nicole Proulx Aiken testified that the bill would erode local control and create unfunded mandates because governments might not be able recoup their costs.

A second victim of a Sunday shooting in the 1600 block of W. 19th Terrace has been released from a Kansas City-area hospital, Lawrence police spokesman Sgt. Trent McKinley said Wednesday, as officers continued to investigate possible suspects.

The victim, a Kansas University student, was one of three men injured around 4:30 p.m. Sunday after an altercation in a home at 1621 W. 19th Terrace culminated in gunfire, McKinley said. McKinley said he believed two male suspects — still at large — initially entered the lower level of the home just south of the KU campus to commit a robbery.

Another victim was released from the hospital Monday. The third, a KU student, remains at KU Hospital in Kansas City, Kan., McKinley said, after being taken there by air ambulance Sunday with multiple gunshot wounds.

McKinley did not know what condition the man was in Wednesday.

After the shooting, two individuals fled from the home by foot, McKinley said. Detectives found evidence and footprints suggesting the two individuals ran north across 19th Street, into the field east of KU’s Oliver residence hall and toward KU’s Ambler Student Recreation Center.

Lawrence and Kansas University police teamed up to search for two men wearing blue jeans and black, long-sleeved shirts, one of whom appeared to be wearing a gun holster.

One man was carrying a gray sweatshirt, KU police said, possibly concealing a weapon with it.

On Monday, police had begun the process of identifying the suspects.

McKinley said police “have started to narrow down the suspect list,” but they have not yet brought anyone in for questioning.

Self remembers friend Tarkanian

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

Jayhawks extra motivated As the Kansas University men’s basketball team charges toward another Big 12 championship and 26th consecutive NCAA Tournament appearance, several other KU programs that get far less attention are starting to follow in the elite hoops program’s footsteps.

Last year alone, nine of KU’s 16 varsity sports were represented in postseason play in one way or another, with six full teams making their respective NCAA tournaments and three others sending individuals to compete on the national stage.

Not bad for a so-called basketball school.

Several members of the KU baseball team, which opens the season Friday at No. 2 LSU, said finding a way to ride the wave of success that has hit the department was a big part of the motivation for qualifying for last year’s NCAA regional in Louisville.

“Absolutely,” said junior second baseman Colby Wright. “That’s a huge part of it. I think we’re all starting to kind of feed off of each other, with that, ‘Hey, look what we can do’ mentality. We see each other in the halls and it’s fun to come in and say, ‘Hey, great job’ or ‘Look at what soccer’s doing, look at what baseball’s doing.’”

Wright, along with seniors Justin Protacio and Dakota Smith, all gave at least some of the credit for the recent rise in postseason appearances — which includes back-to-back trips to the Sweet 16 by the women’s basketball team (2012 and 2013) and three straight trips to the NCAA tournament by KU volleyball (2012-14) — to KU athletic director Sheahon Zenger and the bar he set for the department.

“He’s been great to us, letting us travel a little more and getting us sponsorships,” Smith said. “Not letting him down is kind of a big thing.

You want to do what he wants you to do. When we win, he helps us out.”

Of course, there’s more to the desire to win and advance to postseason play than making the AD or head coach happy. Protacio said reaching an NCAA regional last season was the result of three years of hard work.

And now that they’ve gotten that far, the Jayhawks are hoping this season’s juniorand senior-laden squad will be able to repeat the feat.

“It’s expected to a degree,” said senior left fielder Connor McKay. “And I think it’s a perfect goal for us. It’s just enough within reach and yet also challenging enough that we know we have to play solid baseball all year to get it done.”

With a tough opening series on the docket and eight dog-fight Big 12 weekends from March 27 through May 17, the Jayhawks should have no problem staying focused in what head coach Ritch Price calls “one of the two toughest conferences in America.”

But a little extra motivation never hurt anyone. And, thanks to the accomplishments turned in by various teams throughout the KU athletic department, this group of Jayhawks has two reasons to make another run.

Kansas University basketball coach Bill Self on Wednesday remembered his good friend, Jerry Tarkanian, as a man who not only cared deeply about the team he was coaching, but many other squads around the country, as well.

“One thing I always respected about ‘Tark’ is

that he loved ball. He liked watching everybody else play. He loved watching Kansas play,” Self said on his weekly Hawk Talk radio show. He shared stories about the former UNLV, Fresno State and Long Beach State coach, who died earlier in the day at the age of 84.

“I mean he’d call me after games and say, ‘Hey you guys are doing great.’ Or, ‘I

like how you do this.’ Or, ‘How do you do that?’’’

Self’s relationship with Tarkanian blossomed when Self coached at Tulsa and ‘Tark’ coached at Fresno State, two schools in the WAC. “My best ‘Tark’ story ... my last year at Tulsa, we were 32-5. All five losses we had a chance to win on the last possession or get a stop on the last possession and

we lost. Three of ’em (losses) were to ‘Tark,’’’ Self said.

“After he beat us the third time in his building for the conference championship he asked if he could talk to our guys. I said, ‘Sure, ‘Tark’ what do you want? We’re not very happy.’

“He said, ‘Gosh you guys are great.’ I said, ‘Tark’ you just beat us for the third Please see HOOPS, page 3B

KU baseball looking for believers in Big 12

By Chris Duderstadt cduderstadt@ljworld.com

Kansas University’s baseball team is no stranger to not receiving any respect in the Big 12 preseason poll, but if the Jayhawks’ performance in 2014 was any indication, they’ll prove doubters wrong again in 2015.

The Jayhawks were picked to finish in a tie for seventh in the preseason conference rankings after placing third

last year and earning a bid to the NCAA Tournament with a record of 35-26 overall and 15-9 in the Big 12.

“We were always picked in the bottom of the standings,” KU coach Ritch Price said at the Jayhawks’ annual media day Wednesday. “You just go out and overachieve.

That’s how we prepare is to overachieve.”

Price realizes that overachieving will not be easy for the Jayhawks with having

to replace four of the team’s five starters from 2014. Senior Drew Morovick is the lone returning starter from last year’s staff, and he will be looked upon by Price to be KU’s ace.

Morovick tied for the Big 12 lead in wins with 10 in 2014 after making nine starts and 25 total appearances.

“His breaking ball, I think he’s improved it and it was firmer,” Price said. “He actually was punching more guys

out this fall. That’s going to be the key if he can be a weekend starter for us is his breaking ball has to be an out pitch where he can get out of trouble with a strikeout.”

Morovick will be followed

by Diablo Valley junior college transfer Ben Krauth and sophomore Sean Rackoski to fill out the weekend rotation.

Seabury earns respect, victory over Ward

By Bobby Nightengale bnightengale@ljworld.com

During the pre-game introductions on Wednesday, Bishop Seabury’s boys basketball coach Ashley Battles noticed opposing players from K.C. Ward smiling and grinning when the Seahawks opened the game with three freshmen, a sophomore and a junior on the court.

“You should have seen their team looking at us,” Battles said after his team’s 54-42 victory at Seabury. “I never call (the Seahawks) over (to the bench) right before the game, but I called them over and I said, ‘Man, these dudes are laughing at you and they think you’re punks. That’s all I got for

you, though.’ I think I fired them up.”

The Seahawks certainly were inspired to play tough defense, forcing nine turnovers in the first six minutes. Once they started to find a rhythm on offense, they never looked back.

Seabury (10-6) scored the first seven points of the game with two free throws from junior forward Thomas Uhler, a layup by freshman forward Thomas DiZerega and a three from freshman guard Bansi King.

Midway through the second quarter, the Seahawks went on a 9-0 run to pull away for good with a pair of layups from Uhler and five Please see SEABURY, page 3B

D.J. Augustin scored 22 points for the Pistons and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope added 20, but Detroit simply looked overmatched for most of the night. The Spurs led 48-39 at halftime and then went on a 16-7 run at the start of the third quarter in the final game for both teams before the All-Star break.

time.’ He said, ‘We played like crap all year long, but these three games we played well. We get up to play you guys.’

“He said, ‘I’m telling you what, you can go to the Final Four. Your team is so good. You guard so well. I love playing against you guys.’’’

Self’s 1999-2000 Golden Hurricane wound up reaching the Elite Eight.

“When we were at Illinois, he had retired and stayed with us for clinics.

I got a group of 20 guys who lived in the community together. I said, ‘We’re going to go to dinner with ‘Tark,’ and sit around and let ‘Tark’ tell stories for hours.’ It’s what he did,” Self said.

“He talked to our (Illinois) team. He said, ‘This is the best collection of talent I’ve ever seen.’ Our players said, ‘B.S., coach.

You had Larry Johnson, Stacey Augmon, right ‘Tark.’ He said, ‘Maybe not the best, but it’s right up there.’

“He was great. Everybody liked ‘Tark.’ It’s a sad day, but he definitely impacted a lot of lives, gave a lot of kids second chances who ended up contributing greatly to society. He impacted our game. He and coach Smith (Dean, who died Sunday) did it polar opposite ways, polar opposite,” Self added. “Both were very effective in their approach without question. We lost another coaching icon today.” l Nearing 1,000: KU junior forward Perry Ellis needs three points Saturday against Baylor (noon, Allen Fieldhouse) to become the 56th KU player to score 1,000 points.

“Perry’s been a consistent scorer for us,” Self said. “If Perry is here next

points by freshman guard Zach McDermott.

“You could see it in their eyes, they thought we were nothing,” McDermott said. “So we had a little chip on our shoulders coming out.”

The Cyclones (5-10) opened the second half with more energy, crashing the boards for offensive rebounds and playing tougher defense. But early in the third quarter, McDermott had different plans, scoring eight of his game-high 22 points in three straight possessions, including two three-pointers.

“People started finding me and I think it was just mind-set,” McDermott said. “I was just focused more in the second half and found my shot, and kept going with it.”

Henry T’s Presents: College Hoops Contest

joined Self’s coaching staff at KU prior to the 2013-14 season. l Self on Svi: A Hawk Talk caller asked about the progress of freshman Sviatoslav Mykhailiuk, who had no points in nine minutes in Tuesday’s win at Texas Tech. He had played three minutes in the previous six games.

“It’s hard to play 10 or 11 guys. He’s a little behind some of the guys playing in front of him now or he’d be playing.

Defensively he’s probably more advanced than a couple of those guys. Offensively he’s behind because of youth, strength, experience,” Self said.

“That is the way it is at places that win,” Self added of players in the past such as Thomas Robinson, Jeff Withey, Sherron Collins and Markieff Morris waiting their turn.

“It may be disappointing to him (Svi) ... I know it is because we’ve talked.

He wants to play more and contribute more but he’s going to be a good player. I feel good about him. I think he’ll be terrific.”

In talking about other players who waited their turn, Self noted that former NBA Developmental League player Mario Little now “is by far the best player in our gym when he plays with our guys.” l Self on Alexander: Of Cliff Alexander, who made his second start and scored 10 points with four blocks Tuesday, Self said: “He did fine, not that anybody has done poorly ... we need a little different look. We played so well and won a lot of games playing the way we’d been playing. At the end of the day it (lineup with Jamari Traylor in post) is awfully small. Hopefully Cliff can give us a presence inside and Mari that great energy off the bench.”

The Seahawks are still without injured star sophomore guard Mikey Wycoff, who is averaging 23 points per game this year, though he participated in warmups. That’s forced them to share the ball more and have different players pick up the scoring.

“It’s easy when you have a player like Mikey, you can sit back and watch,” Battles said. “I think the other guys know now, ‘Hey, I’m a good player, too. It’s not just the Mikey show.’ …

Once we get Mikey back, I think we’re going to be pretty dangerous.”

Seabury opened the fourth quarter with a 7-2 run, with a three from senior guard Bryce Stewart and buckets from McDermott and sophomore Austin Gaumer to take a 45-26 lead.

The Cyclones featured three players above 6-foot6, but the Seahawks are

used to being outsized.

Seabury didn’t allow many passes in the low post and grabbed long rebounds.

Uhler had a team-high nine rebounds and three blocks, while DiZerega grabbed eight rebounds and three steals.

“I say heart over height,” McDermott said.

“We’re going to come in and fight. We don’t care how tall you are.”

The Seahawks will play host to Metro Academy at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday.

The middle infield duo of second baseman Colby Wright and shortstop Justin Protacio both return along with corner outfielders Dakota Smith and Connor McKay. “My three years before this, we’ve consistently got better every year,�

Protacio said. “So getting to regionals is that final step. The year before we made it to the Big 12 championship game and finally taking that next step and getting to the regional was huge.�

Protacio led the conference last year in runs with 53, and McKay and Smith both drove in 40plus runs to rank among the Big 12’s best.

The development of catcher Michael Tinsley, who Price will insert in the cleanup spot of the lineup, is also expected to big a big contributor to the Jayhawks’ offense. “I hit behind him (Tinsley) in scrimmages and I basically expect to hit after he comes up. I’m not even expecting to go back and change at the end of an inning,� Smith said. “All he does is hit. If he gets out, he hits it hard, but it’s usually something being snagged at the wall.�

The Jayhawks will have a tough test to begin the season as they hit the road to play FridaySunday at LSU, which is ranked No. 2 nationally

by Baseball America. “I’m really excited to see how our players respond to that environment. It will be our third trip to LSU,� Price said. “I can compare it to Allen Fieldhouse where Allen Fieldhouse is the mecca of college basketball and greatest environment in college basketball in the country to play in, that’s what Alex Box Stadium is at LSU. The games are completely sold out, 11,000 tickets.�

Despite the Tigers being one of college baseball’s perennial powerhouses, the Jayhawks are 5-1 under Price against LSU in Baton Rouge. “I jokingly tell people I think I got a five-year ban after we went down there and won the series when they were No. 1 in the country in 2010. It’s my favorite place I’ve ever played and I’m excited to take these young men to Alex Box Stadium.�

Game times for this weekend are set for 7 p.m.

Friday, 2 p.m. Saturday and 1 p.m. Sunday.

The Jayhawks will remain on the road before playing their home opener against Utah on March 6 at Hoglund Ballpark.

Ex-UNLV coach Tarkanian dies at 84 Las Vegas (ap) — He couldn’t stop fighting the NCAA any more than he could give up chewing towels courtside. Jerry Tarkanian built a basketball dynasty in the desert, but it was his decades-long battle with the NCAA that defined him far more than the wins and losses.

The coach who won a national title at UNLV and made the school synonymous with basketball died Wednesday after several years of health issues. He was 84.

Tarkanian put the run in the Runnin’ Rebels, taking them to four Final Fours and winning a national championship in 1990 with one of the most dominant college teams ever. His teams were as flamboyant as the city, with light shows and fireworks for pregame introductions and celebrities jockeying for position on the so-called Gucci Row courtside.

He ended up beating the NCAA, too, collecting a $2.5 million settlement after suing the organiza-

tion for trying to run him out of college basketball.

But he was bitter to the end Tarkanian about the way the NCAA treated him while coaching. “They’ve been my tormentors my whole life,�

Tarkanian said at his retirement news conference in 2002. “It will never stop.�

The night before he died, fans attending UNLV’s game against Fresno State draped towels over the statue of Tarkanian outside the campus arena that depicts Tarkanian chewing on one of his famous towels.

Tarkanian’s wife, Lois, said her husband — hospitalized Monday with an infection and breathing difficulties — fought health problems for the last six years with the same “courage and tenacity� he showed through-

out his life. His death came just days after the death of another Hall of Fame coach, North Carolina’s Dean Smith. “Our hearts are broken but filled with incredible memories,� Lois Tarkanian said in a family statement. “You will be missed Tark.�

Tarkanian was an innovator who preached defense yet loved to watch his teams run. And run they did, beginning with his first Final Four team in 1976-77, which scored more than 100 points in 23 games in an era before both the shot clock and the three-point shot.

He was a winner in a city built on losers, putting a small commuter school on the national sporting map and making UNLV sweatshirts a hot item around the country. His teams helped revolutionize the way the college game was played, with relentless defense forcing turnovers that were quickly converted into baskets at the other end.

He recruited play-

ers other coaches often wouldn’t touch, building teams with junior college transfers and kids from checkered backgrounds.

His teams at UNLV were national powerhouses almost every year, yet Tarkanian never seemed to get his due when the discussion turned to the all-time coaching greats.

That changed in 2013 when the man popularly referred to as Tark the Shark was elected to the Naismith Memorial Hall of Fame, an honor his fellow coaches argued for years was long overdue.

Though hospitalized in the summer for heart problems and weakened by a variety of ills, he went on stage with a walker at the induction ceremony. “I knew right from day one I wanted to be a coach,� Tarkanian said. “Coaching has been my entire life.�

Tarkanian’s career spanned 31 years with three Division I schools, beginning at Long Beach State and ending at Fresno State.

Dear Annie: I am 53 years old and have been with my boyfriend for four years. The first year was awesome.

We would hug and kiss hello and goodbye, and often say “I love you.”

Now? Nothing. We don’t touch at all. I am so unhappy. We have sex once a month and only when he wants it. During sex, there is no kissing or embracing. When I talk to him about this, he becomes angry and says I live in a fantasy world and have unrealistic expectations. He says he is not going to crawl all over me. He then says he loves me very much.

It’s not that I want sex all the time, but a little affection would be nice.

Other than this, things are good. We get along well and support each other. I just wish it could be like our first year. I don’t want to start all

over with someone else, but lately I’m asking myself, “Should I stay or should I go?” — Ursula Dear Ursula: Embracing and kissing during lovemaking is normal.

Please ask your boyfriend to see his doctor to check out any hormonal problems that could possibly be resolved. If he refuses to go and will not discuss it with you, you must decide how important physical affection is, because he isn’t likely

‘Slap’ brings HBO style to NBC Blessed with an excellent cast and production team, “The Slap” (7 p.m., NBC) feels more like a very grown-up movie.

Think “American Beauty” meets “The Kids Are All Right” by way of “Juno.”

Set in Brooklyn’s multicultural bourgeois bohemia, “The Slap” stars Peter Sarsgaard as Hector, a city official on the rise who has just learned that he’s been passed over for promotion. The implication is that he won’t get the job because he’s neither a w o m a n nor a minority. His wife, Aisha (Thandie Newton), is both.

They have two rambunctious kids in a comfortable-looking brownstone.

The pilot episode brings together his entire family for Hector’s 40th birthday party and does an efficient and entertaining job of establishing a dynamic cast of characters as well as the emotional fault lines that divide them. An overworked doctor, Aisha feels ambushed

by Hector’s effusive Greek family, which includes his abrasive nouveau riche cousin (Zachary Quinto).

Quinto’s character provides the “slap” in the show’s title when he strikes the seemingly disturbed child of a pretentious artist with whom he had been arguing. This incident sets in motion a series of events that will embroil Hector’s circle and occupy the next seven installments. It should also spark debate among members of its audience about their own reaction to events and characters’ behavior and attitudes.

This eight-part miniseries would feel right at home on HBO, FX or any number of streaming services. It just feels weird on NBC. Particularly at 8 p.m., a time slot that NBC’s old chief, Jeff Zucker, once dismissed as only good for game shows.

Tonight’s other highlights

Geena Davis and Debbie Allen guest-star on “Grey’s Anatomy” (7 p.m., ABC).

A professional kidnapper strikes on “The Blacklist” (8 p.m., NBC).

A possible bias crime on “Backstrom” (8 p.m., Fox).

Fitz reaches his limit on “Scandal” (8 p.m., ABC).

An old face resurfaces on “Elementary” (9 p.m., CBS).

Katya’s alibi disturbs Alex on “Allegiance” (9 p.m., NBC).

to provide it.

Dear Annie: I was born in the middle of the baby boom generation. My dad was a Pearl Harbor veteran. There were hundreds of heroic acts performed that day, and one of them involved a friend of my father’s, whose destroyer took a direct hit. Even with severe injuries, he lowered himself into the harbor and dog-paddled out to keep an unconscious seaman alive until help could reach them.

That day, my dad decided that if he had a son, he would name him after this friend, whose name was Richard. The common nickname is “Dick,” which brings me to the reason for this letter.

Seventy-five years ago, Dick was a common name, but not so much today. For years,

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS

For Thursday, Feb. 12: This year you will focus on your image and your long-term plans.

Your career could be a key issue, as you will demand growth. When you concentrate on an objective or desire, you tend to hit a home run.

If you are single, someone comes strolling into your life and puts a big smile on your face. If you are attached, the two of you often sound and act like two lovebirds.

The stars show the kind of day you’ll have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult Aries (March 21-April 19) You’ll have a strong sense of where a partner is coming from. Tonight: Tap into your imagination.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) Others seek you out in the morning, and you might feel overwhelmed. Tonight: Tap into your imagination when making weekend plans.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) You’ll seek out others as you attempt to get a better grasp on a situation. Tonight: An older person triggers many thoughts.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) Prepare to do what you want, but expect to get some impromptu questions and demands.

Tonight: Get some extra R and R. Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) You might want to give in to your fun yet spontaneous personality. Tonight: A friend

I have put up with people making lewd comments about my name.

I’d appreciate it if you could provide a concise response that leaves little room for additional interaction with marginally literate people.

— Richard Dear Richard: We are not miracle workers.

The Beavis and ButtHeads of the world will continue to snicker at your nickname because they never matured past adolescence. We favor the world-weary sigh, along with ignoring them. An eye roll is optional. You also could introduce yourself as “Rick” or “Rich,” both common nicknames for Richard that will elicit fewer asinine reactions.

inspires you.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You might want to understand what is happening with a key person. Tonight: Make it easy, and order in.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) You could be somewhat withdrawn as you see what goes on around you. Tonight: Catch up on emails.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You might want to straighten out a money issue before it becomes unmanageable.

Tonight: Let your imagination speak.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You could be pushing someone away without realizing how you are coming off. Tonight: Respond to an offer that is too good to be true.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You might want to confirm meetings, plans and anything of significance. Tonight: Vanish while you can.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You could be taken aback by a meeting or get-together with a friend. Tonight: Be spontaneous.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) Be aware of your limits when dealing with others. Leave a tough situation for a different day.

Tonight: Do what you want.
