School board names superintendent finalists By Rochelle Valverde Twitter: @RochelleVerde

The Lawrence school district has announced the names of three finalists for its open superintendent position.

The finalists are Kyle Hayden of Lawrence, Shellaine Kiblinger of Hutchinson and Michael Munoz of Rochester, Minn. Hayden is currently assistant superintendent of business and opera-

tions for the Lawrence school district. Kiblinger is superintendent of the Hutchinson school district, and Munoz is superintendent of the Rochester school district. The Lawrence school board met in a closed

executive session Friday evening to determine the finalists. School board President Vanessa Sanburn was happy with the outcome. “We’re pleased with the quality of applicants and we’re excited to get

Topeka — U.S. Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., brought his struggling presidential campaign to Kansas on Friday, hoping a string of endorsements from the state’s Republican elite would help him notch another win by taking the state’s GOP caucus today. A crowd of about 300 people greeted Rubio outside an airplane hangar at Forbes Field in Topeka, where he was flanked by Gov. Sam Brownback, U.S. Sen. Pat Roberts and his two state co-chairs, State Sen. Terry Bruce of Hutchinson and Rep. Erin Davis of Olathe. In a 30-minute speech that touched on a wide range of topics — from foreign policy and the military, to health care and his own family history as the son of Cuban immigrants — Rubio took aim at GOP frontrunner Donald Trump by insisting Rubio is the only candidate in the race who can unite the Republican Party. “Because the truth is, 65 percent of people who have already voted

Trump holding rally in Wichita today GOP presidential frontrunner Donald Trump will host a Wichita rally today before the Kansas caucuses, according to a Friday press release from his campaign. Trump will fly to Kansas before heading later in the day to Florida, which is also selecting its GOP candidate today. The Trump rally will take place at the Century II Performing Arts & ConvenTrump tion Center, 225 West Douglas Ave., in Wichita. Doors are expected to open at 7 a.m., with a planned start time of 9 a.m. for the rally. Attendees were encouraged to register online Friday to guarantee admittance, though tickets are not required, the campaign said.

Poll: Brownback has lower approval rating than Obama

ov. Sam Brownback and the Kansas Legislature have lower approval ratings in Kansas than President Barack Obama, according to a recent poll from Fort Hays State University. In fact, of all the public institutions and elected officials asked about in the poll, the one with the highest approval rating was one that Brownback and lawmakers spend a great deal of time attacking: the Kansas Supreme Court. That may not be saying much, given that only 45 percent of those surveyed said they

wo years from now, if things go according to plan, Kansas University’s Lawrence campus will no longer have desktop telephones. Instead, all faculty and staff will be making calls through the Internet using their computers or cellphones. KU Information Technology is about a year into a three-year process of replacing the campus’s traditional phone service — and the landlines it requires — with the Internetbased Skype for Business service, said David Day, director of KU IT external affairs. “It’s kind of blurring the lines between phone calls, instant messaging, voicemail and email into one package or one system that all operates together,” Day said. Usage statistics show that landline phone calls at KU have declined anyway — drastically. Since 2008, the number of calls to and from KU phone numbers has decreased 55 percent, from 6.9 million in 2008 to 3.1 million in 2015, Day said. The total minutes of those calls dropped from 19.2 million to 10.2 million in the same time frame. Those decreases have been happening as email, instant messaging, cellphones and other communication options have grown in popularity, Day said. KU IT, naturally, was the first department to do away with landlines, Day said. Everyone in LEEP2, the new en-

Lois Jean Perkins Lois Jean Perkins was born January 17, 1937 in Hillsboro, Kansas, the third child of Frieda (Funk) and Milt L Hiebert. She grew up in central Kansas and graduated in 1954 from Marion High School. Lois was a Registered Nurse, earning her degree from Wesley School of Nursing in 1957. She married Lynn L. Perkins of Howard, Kansas in 1957 and they resided for most of their married life on the family ranch in Elk County. Lois died on March 2, 2016, at Neuvant House in Lawrence and joins her parents and brother Daryle Hiebert. She is survived by her husband Lynn; siblings Isla Richards (Lawrence) and Gail Hiebert (Judy) of Webbers Falls, Oklahoma; daughters Kathy Perkins (Stan Davis), of Lawrence; Janis Perkins (Richard Hardin) of Iowa City, Iowa; and Sandy Perkins (Randy Leonard) of Lawrence; grandchildren Jennifer Brooks, Dylan Brooks, Claire Hardin (Stan Waisath), Anna Hardin, Laura Leonard (Althea Schnacke), Mat Leonard (Erika Sjule); and many nieces,

don’t want him as our nominee. And if our party is fractured and splintered, we can’t win,” Rubio said. So far in the campaign, he has been vying with U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz, RTexas, for second place in the GOP race, with both men trailing Trump by wide margins. But Rubio hopes to turn that around in the Kansas caucuses today, and he’s hoping the state’s top elected Republicans can help him do that, if not by winning the state outright, then at least by making a strong showing. “I can tell you we’ll leave here tomorrow with delegates, and this has now become a delegate fight to see who can get to 1,237 first,” he said. “And if not, who can go into the convention with the highest number of delegates.” Republican delegates chosen in the Kansas caucuses will be divided proportionately among all the candidates who get at least 10 percent of the vote. One of the big questions in Kansas, though, is whether, in a year dominated by anti-establishment sentiment,

REPUBLICAN PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE, SEN. MARCO RUBIO, R-Fla., appears with Kansas Gov. Sam Brownback at a campaign rally Friday in Topeka. Rubio’s string of endorsements from top elected GOP leaders in the state will help or hurt his campaign, especially given a recent Fort Hays State University poll showing Brownback and the Kansas Legislature with lower job approval ratings than President Barack Obama. “In any typical election year, all of those folks lining up would indicate, there’s the momentum. Not in 2016,” said FHSU political science professor Chapman Rackaway. “Trump’s momentum is based on the idea that insider politics is what got us into trouble in the first place.” According to the FHSU poll, the GOP race in Kansas was still wide open in the week leading

up to the caucuses, with 39 percent of Republican respondents saying they were still undecided. Trump was named by 26 percent, followed by Cruz at 14 percent and Rubio at 13 percent. But Rackaway said the race may be tightening as those undecided voters start making up their minds. One indicator of that, he said, was Trump’s announcement Friday that he was canceling a scheduled appearance at the Conservative Political Action Convention, or CPAC, in Washington and traveling to Wichita to campaign this morning, just before the caucuses open.

Democrats will vote at the caucus site corresponding to the State Senate district in which they live: • District 2 voters will caucus at Liberty Memorial Central Middle School, 1400 Massachusetts St. • District 3 voters will caucus at Eudora High School, 2203 Church St., Eudora. • District 19 voters will caucus at Highland Park High School, 2424 S.E. California Ave., Topeka. Republicans have caucus sites set up in each county, and voters in each county are free to choose the one most convenient to them. In Douglas County, there are two Republican caucus sites: Southwest Middle School, 2511 Inverness Drive, Lawrence; and the Baldwin City Library, 800 7th St., Baldwin City. Republican caucus sites will open their doors at 10 a.m. In the larger sites, there may be speeches on behalf of the candidates before voting begins at 11 a.m., but voters do not need to attend those if they don’t want to. Voting will remain open until 2 p.m. Democratic caucus sites will open at 1 p.m. Voters must be registered and in place before the caucusing begins at 3 p.m.

The survey also asked about several national political issues. And again, it showed most Kansans to be more moderate, or even liberal, than their elected Republican leaders. l Nearly two-thirds (61 percent) said taxes should be raised on the nation’s top income earners, and more than half (57 percent) said large corporations should pay more in taxes. l Concern about the federal budget deficit was split about evenly, with one-third saying they are “extremely” or “very” concerned about it; another third saying they’re “somewhat” concerned; and about a third saying they’re not concerned at all. l More than half (53 percent) said they would support allowing a pathway to citizenship for

Finalists CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A

Current Lawrence Superintendent Rick Doll, 61, announced in November that he would resign his position at the end of the school year. Doll has accepted a full-time position as associate professor and executive director of the Kansas Educational Leadership Institute at Kansas State University. The district received 28 applicants to the position, and board members narrowed those candidates down to seven semifinalists earlier this week. Names of the semifinalists were not made available to the public. The semifinalist candidates were interviewed Thursday and Friday. Prior to his current position in Lawrence, Hayden was superintendent of the Tonganoxie school district. Hayden earned his bachelor’s degree from Tabor College, his master’s from Emporia State University and his district leadership license from Fort Hays State University. Kiblinger was an assistant superintendent in Garden City before taking her position in Hutchinson. She earned her associate degree from Independence Community College, bachelor’s and master’s degrees from Pittsburg State University and her doctorate of education from Kansas State University. Prior to his current position, Munoz was executive director of Des Moines, Iowa, public schools. Munoz earned his bachelor’s degree at the University of Nebraska at Lincoln, his master’s at Chadron State College in Chadron, Neb., and his district leadership license at Iowa State University. On Monday and Tuesday, each finalist will meet separately with focus groups of district staff, community members and students whom the board selected. Sanburn said the input from the constituent groups is an important stage of the process. “It’ll be interesting to hear how our staff and community and students feel about the candidates that we’ve selected, because that will certainly be an integral part of our decision,” she said. The final candidates will also take part in another round of in-depth interviews with the board on Monday and Tuesday. An optional tour of the district will be offered to candidates and their spouses. “I’m looking forward to kind of digging in a little bit deeper with each of the candidates, as I think the rest of the board is as well,” Sanburn said. The board will announce its final decision by Friday, March 11. — K-12 education reporter Rochelle Valverde can be reached at 832-6314 or rvalverde@ljworld.com.

illegal or undocumented immigrants who have no criminal record. But a sizable number, 23 percent, support deporting all undocumented immigrants. l Nearly half (48 percent) said they oppose defunding Planned Parenthood, while only 35 percent support it. The other 18 percent had no opinion either way. The question is often asked how the political views of elected officials be so different from those of the people they represent. The answer appears to be simple. “Average” Kansans don’t vote in primary elections where candidates are selected. Only the most passionate and partisan voters do. — This is an excerpt from Peter Hancock’s Statehouse Live column, which appears on LJWorld.com.

creating digital self-portraits and short films as part of a field trip this week were skeptical when told what they were doing was a form of art. Students used computers to take and edit photographs of themselves, draw and paint digitally, and create stop-motion films by arranging figurines on a small set. “I just liked posing (the figurines) and taking the pictures,” said Cordley Elementary fifthgrader Ian Feltz. “But I didn’t realize it was art.” “I thought it was like programming and stuff,” added Luke Havener, also in fifth grade at Cordley.

— Neal Barbour, director of youth education at Lawrence Arts Center The students were among about 400 Lawrence elementary and middle school students who visited the repurposed camper, known as the “mobile collaborator,” while it was parked outside of the Lawrence Arts Center on Tuesday. The project is just one that has rotated through the lab, which was built into a 1972 Airstream Sovereign Land Yacht. Kansas University architecture students and professors gutted, cleaned and renovated the Airstream last year.

The field trip was a joint effort of the Lawrence school district, KU and the Lawrence Arts Center. The fact that students didn’t necessarily associate what they were doing with traditional definitions of art is the point, said Neal Barbour, director of youth education at LAC. “We want to just let kids know that the intersection between the sciences and the arts is very vast, and can happen in so many Please see ART, page 5A

SATURDAY COLUMN

Changing state universities need better oversight By Dolph C. Simons Jr.

Kansas’ fiscal health is not good. Tax revenues are down substantially from projected totals, and, consequently, most every state-funded or state-aided program is facing major cuts. Various reasons are offered for this situation, such as Gov. Sam Brownback’s income tax policies and his refusal to modify his tax philosophy; the national economy; Kansas’ vulnerability because of its reliance on agriculture and mineral-generated taxes and other negatives. Putting this debate aside, the current situation is what it is, and Kansas and its residents have to figure out how to make the best of a bad situation or decide what actions to take to reduce the chances of this situation continuing year after year. Education takes a huge bite out of state tax revenues. News stories earlier this week reported revenue coming into

state coffers in February fell $53.6 million short of expectations, creating a budget deficit that will result in painful budget cuts in state operations. The same day, Brownback announced a $17 million cut to state university budgets. Kansas University officials said the action would reduce the KU budget by $7.18 million. Not much can be done about this at this time, and KU officials face the challenge of figuring out how to absorb the loss of more than $7 million from an already-tight budget and still maintain the excellence of the overall university program. The fact is, the operation and funding of the Kansas Board of Regents universities is out of date and needs an almost total overhaul. The Board of Administration, a forerunner of the Board of Regents, was established in 1913, and the structure and duties of the board have been modified

a number of times since. In the early years, almost the entire operating budget of the state universities came from the state. Today, state support is between 15 percent and 20 percent of those budgets, dropping most every year. The rest of the universities’ money comes from tuition, federal funds and grants and private fiscal support.

COMMENTARY The state pays only a small fraction of the costs, but, through the Board of Regents, which the governor appoints, and the actions of the Legislature, the state, in one way or another, controls the universities. Something is out of whack! Perhaps it is time, or far past time, to reinvent the Board of Regents and make its role more relevant to today’s reality. Or maybe a more up-to-date and

functional new body should replace the board. As it is, today’s regents do not have a good idea of what is going on at the multiple institutions they oversee. They are spoon-fed information by their staff, and their official visits to the campuses are carefully controlled and orchestrated by university officials. The size and complexity of state universities have changed tremendously since the Board of Regents was created. The changes in higher education have been massive, but the Board of Regents hasn’t changed. Granted, there have been some relatively minor touchups, but not enough to make the regents up-to-date, effective and knowledgeable administrators of our state universities. New technology is changing higher education, and it seems serious downsizing of some

aspects of a college education should be studied. Isn’t it time to consider what might be done to give Kansas the best chance to have its state universities measure up to the demands and opportunities of today and tomorrow? Someone — whether it is the governor, a state legislator, a regent, a concerned private citizen or some public body — would be doing a badly needed public service by proposing a blue ribbon committee to initiate a deep and thorough study of the Kansas system of higher education. It cannot grow and excel in its current fiscal year-to-year lifeline operation. Where is the proper level of funding to come from, and where should the leadership come from: the Board of Regents, a new and remodeled board or some other office or individual? The current system is not working as well as it should.

Gov. vetoes bond, power plant measures By John Hanna Associated Press

Topeka — Republican Gov. Sam Brownback vetoed two measures Friday that showed the GOPdominated Legislature’s growing distrust of how his administration has handled two major projects. One measure was a provision in a budget bill designed to keep the state from authorizing bonds backed by state sales tax revenues for a project to lure the 117-year-old American Royal horse and livestock exhibition to Kansas from Kansas City, Mo. Critics worried about the state forgoing revenues as it struggles to balance its budget. The other measure was a separate bill to prevent the state from demolishing the 1950s-era Docking State Office Building near the Statehouse. Legislators passed the bill after their criticism forced Brownback to cancel a $20 million project to tear Docking down and replace its power plant with a new one for the Capitol and other nearby office buildings. Brownback criticized the American Royal

at the school — recent student diversity protests and dwindling finances — plus a desire to return to research. Smokowski resigned his dean’s duties immediately and will officially step down as dean in July, continuing on as a professor. Kapp was named acting dean until an interim is named. It’s too early to say when the search for a permanent dean will launch, acting KU Provost Sara Rosen said. “I want to work with the school to decide how long the interim period will be,” Rosen said. “I think the school needs a little bit of time to do some strategic planning, which they had actually started under Dean Smokowski.” Kapp has been teaching at KU since 1997 and became a full professor and associate dean of academic affairs for the School of Social Welfare about five years ago, he said. His own research focuses on program

measure as “discrimination” against Wyandotte County, where the development would occur. He said the Docking measure wasn’t necessary once he abandoned the power plant project. Both measures had bipartisan support, and the Docking bill passed both chambers nearly u n a n i mously. Their backers would need twothirds ma- Brownback jorities in both chambers to override either veto. “He’s picking some pretty good fights,” said Sen. Jim Denning, an Overland Park Republican who supported both. The American Royal measure was included in a bill making dozens of adjustments in the state’s $16.1 billion budget for the fiscal year beginning July 1 in hopes of keeping it balanced. The bill also included Brownback’s proposals to close a projected deficit approaching $200 million largely by juggling funds and capturing unanticipated savings in programs. Brownback signed the

bill, but governors have the power to veto individual items in budget legislation. The provision he excised said the state couldn’t approve bonds backed by sales tax revenues for any Wyandotte County project unless lawmakers first tightened up the so-called STAR bonds program. “I do not believe there is any precedent for this kind of discrimination against one county in connection with economic development programs,” Brownback wrote in his veto message. With the state’s approval, Wyandotte County issued $450 million in STAR bonds starting in 2001 to create a thriving entertainment and shopping district surrounding a NASCAR track, Kansas Speedway. The bonds will be paid off this year — so the state can keep sales tax revenues generated in the district. Denning and other lawmakers worried that Brownback’s administration would expand the district to include an American Royal development and tap up to $42 million in existing sales tax revenues generated there for new bonds.

A recent Department of Commerce report said the American Royal project could include a hotel, a children’s museum and a 5,000-seat arena for both the exhibition and a minor-league hockey team. Administration officials said there is no firm plan and disavowed using existing sales tax revenues to back new bonds. In his veto message, Brownback said he will work with lawmakers on tightening up the STAR bonds program. Denning said with the veto, “We’ve will have to get that done.” The power plant project drew criticism because the Department of Administration signed an unusual financing agreement in December, weeks after members of a legislative committee expressed misgivings. The state would have financed the project through a 15-year leasepurchase agreement with Bank of America, paying 2.32 percent interest. The department contends it isn’t cost-effective to keep Docking open because it needs up to $100 million worth of maintenance, though some legislators are skeptical.

evaluation with children and families, juvenile justice and children’s mental health, he said. He has taught research at the bachelor’s, master’s and doctoral levels and teaches an introduction to social welfare class for freshmen and sophomores. This spring, Kapp expects to deal with budget cuts stemming from the Kansas Legislature’s reduction to KU’s state dollars for the current fiscal year. He said he does not yet have numbers. Since November’s universitywide town hall forum on race, KU’s School of Social Welfare created the Toni Johnson Office of Race and Social Justice with $15,000 designated by Smokowski, Kapp said. Faculty participated in “micro-aggression” training and task forces were created for diversity and inclusion, mental health resources and social justice. Those efforts will continue, and current faculty have stepped up to lead the new office, which among other things will evaluate curriculum to support “inclusion and racial and ethnic

sensibility,” Kapp said. Several social welfare students first confronted Smokowski after the town hall forum with demands they said would improve the school for students of color, according to a written account by students. Their frustration grew after several interactions, and students eventually demanded his resignation, and some staged a sit-in Wednesday at Twente Hall. Smokowski said in a recent interview with the Journal-World that the school had no official complaints of racism during his tenure. He said he agreed with students who said the school should be inclusive and that any incidents of racism or discrimination should be investigated. Kapp said he spent a lot of time talking with those students this week. “At this point in time I have a really good relationship with them, many of them I had in class,” Kapp said. “I think we’re in a really good position to move forward.”

that its old building will fit that bill. The large space features floor-toceiling windows that overlook Seventh Street, a copper tile ceiling and an ornate chandelier. The menu, though, is expected to be the main draw. Chef Sarah Hess has added several new offerings to go with the breakfast burritos that had previously been a featured brunch offering. New offerings include something called a Mac Stack, which is a mac and cheese egg sandwich with a choice of meat ranging from bacon to chorizo to fried chicken. Also on the menu is a Cuban sandwich

with an egg; a bourbon, bacon, waffle chicken sandwich; biscuits and gravy; sweet onion grits; and a variety of dishes with Brie smoked Gouda and manchego cheeses. Lawrence-based Queen of Tarts bakery also will be offering baked goods. Bush also said there will be a full bloody mary and mimosa bar, with plans to expand the brunch cocktail menu in the near future. John Brown plans to serve brunch from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Friday through Sunday.

Lawrence woman was arrested Thursday night after police said she left the scene of an accident, hit a man with her car, drove away again and then tried to run from police. Raffina Sadrica Thompson, 39, was booked into the Douglas County Jail on suspicion of interference with a law enforcement officer, aggravated battery, failure to stop at an accident and driving under the influence. Just after 8 p.m. a Toyota Camry — driven by a woman with her husband in the passenger seat — was eastbound on West 23rd Street, said Lawrence Police Department Spokeswoman Kim Murphree. In the 500 block of the street the couple was rear-ended by a Honda Accord driven by Thompson. Thompson fled the scene of the accident, driving into a residential neighborhood, Murphree said. The husband and wife followed Thompson and called police. Soon the two cars came to a stop in a nearby culde-sac and the husband left the Toyota and told Thompson police were on the way, Murphree said.

Topeka (ap) — The director of a Kansas psychiatric hospital has resigned, leaving a facility hurt by staff shortages without a superintendent. Angela de Rocha, a spokeswoman for the Kansas Department for Aging and Disability Services, says superintendent Tom Kinlen is no longer with Larned State Hospital. The Topeka Capital-Journal reports that the department’s commissioner of behavioral health services, Bill Rein, will serve as acting superintendent until the position is filled.

At that point Thompson allegedly drove toward the husband, hitting him and driving away yet again. Responding officers found Thompson, still in her car, in the 2000 block of West 25th Street and attempted to talk to her about the incident, Murphree said. Thompson left her car but during the conversation tried to run away from the officer, police said. She was quickly caught and arrested. Further information was not immediately available. — This is an excerpt from Conrad Swanson’s Lights & Sirens column, which appears regularly on LJWorld.com.

Rein and the secretary of the department, Tim Keck, testified before legislators in January, facing questions about state hospital staffing shortages. Keck said staffing issues are caused by several factors, including low employment, pay and respect shown toward employees. “I think it’s a combination of all the things I’ve talked about, probably some things I haven’t come to understand just yet but hope to very soon,” Keck said. Kinlen took over as director of the hospital in 2012 after staffing issues forced out superintendent Chris Burke.

‘MythBusters’ wraps up its final season The worlds of scientific rigor, movie spectacle and a smart adolescent’s sense of joy and discovery mingled, and at times exploded, on every episode of “MythBusters” (7 p.m., Discovery, TV-PG), which is wrapping up its 14th and final season. Hosts Adam Savage and Jamie Hyneman emerged from a world of illusion, working professionally in the movie industry as set designers and special-effects experts. Yet these masters of make-believe presided over a show dedicated to testing popularly held assumptions against the unassailable power of scientific method, testing and experimentation. Much like Anthony Bourdain on “No Reservations,” the hosts regularly made their crew part of the spectacle, celebrating the efforts of those who had to procure tens of thousands of pingpong balls or a mountain of Mentos. It’s no secret why the series won fans among geeks and scientists alike. It was a weekly affirmation that it was fun to be smart and curious. That’s a rare commodity in a cable environment where hysteria, conspiracy, fear and gullibility are all too often presented as normal, if not desirable, traits.

Skype CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A

The School of Business will be the first entire school to transition, when faculty and staff move into Capitol Federal Hall — also constructed sans phone wiring — later this year.

Cost and convenience Cost for the Skype for Business service is not expected to be significantly lower or higher than the traditional phone service, although Day said KU expects significant “cost avoidance.” KU won’t have to pay for copper wiring in new buildings, or pay to replace landline phone equipment when it ages, he said. However, users already have computers and adequate Internet access for the new service in all buildings. A few select staffers — such as administrative assistants whose jobs entail juggling multiple lines and messages for entire departments — will continue to use desktop phones, although they’ll also be on the Skype for Business service as opposed to a landline. Most others will simply be provided with a headset to use when making calls from their computers, Day said. They’ll also be able to make and take calls to the same KU phone number from their cellphones, using the Skype app. One advantage of Internet-based phone service is that it can be used anywhere in the world. “You can take the headset anywhere you go along with your computer,” Day said, noting

JAKE COFFMAN, ASSOCIATE DIRECTOR OF SUPPORT SERVICES at the Price Information Technology Center on the Kansas University campus, dials up a video call Monday with information technology engineer Andy Jackson. The two demonstrated the new means for telecommunication by way of video conference, instant messaging and calls through desktop and laptop devices that KU departments will soon be adopting. that goes for everything from working from home to researching abroad. “You can be in Italy on an Internet connection, and with a headset you can answer calls, you can make calls.” Day said users also will be able to get voicemails delivered to their email inbox in two formats: audio files and transcriptions. They can even call into the system from a cellphone to have a computer voice read them their emails or their calendar obligations for the day.

Learning new tricks “The biggest hurdle for customers will just be getting used to it,” Day said. “With anything new there’s going to be a little bit of a learning curve.” Day said KU IT plans training sessions and guides as each new group of faculty and staff transitions to the new

system. A number of universities nationwide already use Skype for Business, and more will be moving that way, along with many other entities, Day said. All KU faculty and staff are already equipped with Skype for Business instant messaging and video conference calling, an effort KU IT started implementing in spring 2014, Day said. “There are some people who absolutely love it, and there are some people who haven’t really gotten into it yet,” he said. But usage numbers for the Skype for Business services offered already have been trending up. According to KU IT: l In August 2014, KU faculty and staff sent 44,915 instant messages. In January 2016, they sent 318,974. l In August 2014, they

made 334 Skype-to-Skype calls among themselves. In January 2016, they made 16,171. l In August 2015, they had 215 online meetings via Skype. In January 2016, they had 1,296. Bob Lim, KU’s chief information officer, said “mobility and flexibility” is becoming more and more important for KU faculty, staff and researchers. “Smartphones already provide integrated personal communication — email, voicemail, instant messaging, video calls — on one platform,” Lim said. “Skype for Business now provides that same integration for work phones, whether our KU customers are on campus or on the other side of the world.”

He said in a news release the national case would either confirm or call into question the Kansas ruling, so it is a better use of everyone’s time to delay issuing the state rulings.

Business style reveals much about Trump Washington — Consider Donald Trump for a moment as a purveyor of men’s cologne. I quote from the merchandise section of trump.com, the website for his portfolio of “great” companies. “‘Empire by Trump’ is the perfect accessory for the confident man determined to make his mark with passion, perseverance and drive. ... Bold notes of peppermint, spicy chai and a hint of apple demand attention.” Or there’s “Success by Trump,” which “captures the spirit of the driven man” and is “an inspiring blend of fresh juniper and iced red currant, brushed with hints of coriander.” With Trump, the essence of the brand is always the same, whether it’s running for president (“Make America Great Again”), promoting hotels (“Live life without boundaries, limits or compromise”) or selling books (“Learn how to think like a billionaire — it’s as simple as turning the page”). The Trump brand is big and bold; it seeks to convey wealth and status; it’s boastful about itself and disdainful of rival products. It’s eclectic and scattershot (bottled water, furniture, ties, cuff links, golf courses). When it fails (three bankrupt casinos, a botched airline deal, an unsuccessful professional football team), it ignores or denies the negative facts and keeps on rolling. Nothing should be surprising about Trump at this point. For

“

Trump truly is a dealmaker, but he has developed a reputation in the real estate world as a particularly confrontational one.”

nine months, he has been saying the unsayable — and not just getting away with it but becoming more popular. He’s a man with a talent for falling uphill, it seems. Trump argues that he’s qualified to be president because he has been a great businessman. Is that true? What does his business career tell us about his strengths and weaknesses? For Trump, the luster of the brand is everything. That’s why he reacts so indignantly to suggestions that he may not be as rich as he claims. It’s not just personal vanity, it hurts the business. He sued a journalist in 2006 for alleging that he was worth less than $1 billion, claiming that this perception of financial weakness had harmed his ability to close deals. This might have seemed a frivolous

lawsuit, but Trump persisted for five years. Trump truly is a dealmaker, but he has developed a reputation in the real estate world as a particularly confrontational one. It’s hard to see how his style would fit in political or diplomatic negotiations where compromise is necessary and bluffing is dangerous. “Deals are my art form,” he wrote in a 1987 book. But it feels closer to a cage fight than an artist’s studio. He’s known for being litigious. (A publication called LawNEWZ.com counted 169 federal lawsuits in which he was named.) He often bargains with a kind of brinkmanship, threatening to walk away if he doesn’t get the concessions he’s demanding. That kind of bareknuckles behavior is common in real estate, where litigation is often seen as a negotiating tactic and risking bankruptcy is almost a badge of honor. But it fits uncomfortably with a democracy and its checks and balances. Trump portrays himself as the sort of big-guy personality who gets along with other big guys. But he appears to have surprisingly few relationships with other leaders of the New York real estate or investment communities. Several prominent figures told me they had never met or barely knew Trump. A half-dozen investors told me Trump is rarely invited to participate in syndicated deals and isn’t generally seen as a good partner.

Trump is in some ways a throwback to the familyowned companies that once dominated the real estate business. Three of Trump’s children — Donald Jr., Ivanka and Eric — are executive vice presidents of the Trump Organization and are described collectively as “the next generation.” Where many family businesses were shattered by the property-market collapse of the early 1990s, and forced to go public, Trump went the other way. He became more private, more family focused, less risk-prone. For all Trump’s braggadocio, the surprising fact is that these days he’s actually somewhat conservative in his business style. After a financial near-death experience making heavily leveraged bets on casinos — three of them went bankrupt in the early 1990s — Trump became more cautious. He now puts relatively little of his own money into deals and, as Joe Nocera of The New York Times noted recently, operates something closer to a licensing company to market his famous name than a firm that makes and sells things. There is a business executive today who has a special ability to identify and build great companies, and who has an unmatched confidence in America’s future. His name is Warren Buffett. Donald Trump? Not so much. — David Ignatius is a columnist for Washington Post Writers Group.

Routes are key to T To the editor: What happened to “Shootin’ the square”? Ridership on the T is morbidly low, and the overseers need to find out why and provide solutions. It takes seven minutes to bus from Seventh and Vermont streets to 15th Street and Haskell Avenue. It takes 53 minutes to get from 15th and Haskell to Seventh and Vermont because the route runs in only one direction. That is why we see lawn chairs along the route and low ridership. Routing needs a major transformation. Until core routes, clockwise and counter-clockwise, serve the I-70 Mall to 31st and Haskell, Seventh and Vermont to Rock Chalk Park, the West Turnpike Interchange to the South Lawrence Trafficway and 23rd Street from the Clinton Lake entrance to East Hills Business Park, free ridership won’t help. I suggest a state-of-the-bus-service fact-finding mission for the members of the City Commission and Lawrence Transit management. Start at 27th Street and Haskell, Seventh and Lyon streets, Rock Chalk Park, Sixth and Massachusetts streets or Kasold Drive at 15th Street. The mission is to navigate to all of these points. The day is Saturday. No rain protection, backpack, pocket change or $1 bills are allowed so you will need to walk to purchase a day pass. Your cellphone is dead and you have a sprained ankle. You must stop at some point for a 15-minute break. I suspect follow-up will depict more critical shortcomings than where to put a non-user friendly hub. Don Brennaman, Lawrence

how to use knowledge to advocate for marginalized and disadvantaged communities. Students participated in over 35 workshops and had a career fair with a record number of employers. Many contributed to the success of this conference, and it is with enthusiasm I thank the students, staff and faculty members who made this conference a success. This conference embraced KU’s mission to educate leaders, build healthy communities, and make discoveries that change the world. You can see some of the highlights by reading the Twitter hashtags #BigXII2016 and #liberating. Great job, students! Jane Tuttle, Lawrence

What’s the plan? To the editor: Several times daily, a machine calls about some political candidate. On TV, the candidates are so busy belittling each other that nobody knows their platforms. Not giving jobs to China and India probably will not work due to free enterprise. Health care by Obama was considered a failure, but what is their plan. These politicians do not have a plan, but only know how to knock others plans. What about gun control? Are we going to let a few more innocent people get killed like Sandy Hook children? The right to bear arms is great, but so is the right to live. Did these children have this right? I would like the news media to pin down these candidates on their platforms exactly like on homeland security, gun control, health care, jobs, etc. Trump, Rubio, Cruz, Clinton and Sanders need to have plans. I want to see some solid evidence before I vote for any one of them. Mary Ann Kieffer, Lawrence

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for March 5, 1916: “Advice to aspiring writers? Give the man with the receding chin a chance. At least the teaching experience of Miss Margaret years Lynn, associate professor of English at the Uniago versity of Kansas, has destroyed her belief that IN 1916 character is indicated reliably by any such index as the chin. Miss Lynn has noticed that almost universally, writers portray the weak-willed characters in their stories as having receding chins. Similarly the hero necessarily must have a square chin. … Experience has also led Miss Lynn to believe that smiles are not always an indication of good To the editor: nature. ‘Some girls go through life looking like angels simply The KU Black Student Union hosted because they happen to have short upper lips and can smile the 39th Annual Big XII Conference on easily.

HBO’s ‘Girls’ takes off on 3-week road trip to Japan

ZOSIA MAMET, LEFT, AND AIDY BRYANT BY TODD PLITT, USA TODAY

Jobs growth proves robust but wages sink Employers add 242,000 jobs in February; numbers may raise odds of Fed rate hike Paul Davidson USA TODAY

Employers added 242,000 jobs in February as the labor market bounced back from a short-lived slowdown and provided further evidence that it’s shrugging off global economic troubles and market turbulence. The unemployment rate, which is calculated from a different survey, was unchanged at 4.9%, the Labor Department said Friday. A sharp rise in employment was offset by a similar-sized increase in the labor force, which includes those working and looking for jobs.

Economists surveyed by Bloomberg expected 195,000 job gains, according to their median forecast. Also encouraging: Job gains for December and January were revised up, December’s to 271,000 from 262,000, and January’s to 172,000 from 151,000. The report drove up the Dow Jones industrial average by about 63 points Friday, lifting it past 17,000 for the first time since early January. Although it raises odds of a Fed rate hike as soon as April, investors appeared more encouraged by the good economic news than worried about a rate increase, which isn't expected at a March 15-16 meeting. But average hourly wages fell 3

ERIC GAY, AP

Job gains for December and January were revised upward as the unemployment rate remained unchanged at 4.9%. cents to 25.35 after rising sharply in January, and are up 2.2% the past year, raising concerns that a recent pickup to 2.5% is not being sustained. The Federal Reserve is

seeking signs that tepid wage gains of just more than 2% for most of the recovery are accelerating. That would help push meager inflation toward the Fed’s

annual 2% target. Also of some concern is the average workweek fell to 34.4 hours from 34.6 hours. And the number of temporary workers dropped by 10,000 and was down for the second consecutive month. Those could be signs hiring may slow in coming months since employers typically adjust the hours of existing workers and bring on or lay off temporary employees before adding permanent staffers. Businesses added 230,000 jobs, led by health care, retail and restaurants. Federal, state and local governments added 12,000. In another positive sign, a broader measure of joblessness that includes part-time employees who prefer full-time jobs and discouraged workers who have given up looking, as well as unemployed, fell to 9.7% from 9.9%.

Billionaire Blixseth still defiant behind bars Businessman wages fight for his rights while questions about his finances go unanswered Phil Drake

Great Falls (Mont.) Tribune GREAT FALLS , MONT. Tim Blixseth, the onetime billionaire who hosted parties in which famed chef Wolfgang Puck was flown in to prepare lavish meals for luminaries such as Bill and Melinda Gates, is living a much simpler life these days. Now an inmate at the Cascade County Regional Detention Center, the embattled businessman, former lumber baron, real estate developer and songwriter spoke to the Great Falls Tribune in an exclusive interview about his incarceration since April 20 for civil

contempt of court (he emphasized the word “civil”), his battles with the justice system and a long list of wrongdoings that he says have been perpetrated against him. Blixseth, 65, who founded the tony Yellowstone Club in Big Sky, entered the room in orange jail garb. Rather than rubbing elbows with the rich and famous, he spends 23 hours a day in solitary confinement. His cell, which he estimates to be 66 square feet, is a far cry from the 13,600-acre Yellowstone Club, where, according to some news reports, he reigned as a self-proclaimed “benevolent dictator.” When asked how he’s doing, Blixseth said with a grin, “It’s a

great day to be alive.” “This is really a constitutional injustice,” he said about the legal saga, now in its eighth year. “This is a homegrown story. This happened in Montana.” The Yellowstone Club, founded in 1997, filed for bankruptcy in 2008. Blixseth was accused of pocketing much of a $375 million Credit Suisse loan to the resort and later gave up control of the enterprise to his ex-wife during their 2008 divorce. Yellowstone Club’s creditors are seeking more than $250 million from Blixseth. According to its website, the Yellowstone Club is the world’s only private ski and golf community.

A new study provides the strongest evidence yet that the Zika virus is the cause of devastating birth defects seen in Brazil, home to the largest outbreak of the disease. Authors of the new study have followed 88 pregnant women in Brazil to see whether being infected with Zika, which is spread by mosquitoes, increases the rate of birth defects. Seventy-two of the women tested positive for the virus. The women’s blood and urine were tested five days or less after they developed an itchy rash, a tell-tale symptom. Other symptoms of Zika infection included fever, pink eye, swollen lymph nodes and joint pain. Most people have no symptoms. Ultrasounds found major abnormalities in 29% of the fetuses from women who tested positive for Zika, but none of the women without Zika infections, according to the study published online Friday in The New England Journal of Medicine. Women were exposed between the sixth and 35th week of pregnancy. A typical pregnancy lasts 40 weeks. Those abnormalities included microcephaly, in which babies are born with unusually small skulls, which typically signifies incomplete brain development; restricted growth in the womb; poor development of brain structures; calcifications in the brain, which signal places where tissue has died; abnormal amniotic fluid levels; or abnormal blood flow in the fetal brain, umbilical cord or placenta, according to the study.

Police testing knife purportedly found at Simpson estate Found in ’90s but L.A. cop never reported it Doug Stanglin USA TODAY

Los Angeles police confirmed Friday that homicide investigators are examining a knife purportedly found years ago on the property where O.J. Simpson was living at the time his ex-wife Nicole Simpson and Ron Goldman were killed in 1994. Capt. Andrew Neiman said a construction worker purportedly found the knife buried on the

Simpson estate in Brentwood in the 1990s and apparently handed it to an off-duty or retired LAPD officer who was providing security during the filming of a movie nearby. Neiman, cautioning the story could be “bogus from the get-go,” said police learned of the existence of the knife “in the last month” and recovered it from the now-retired officer. The Simpson house was demolished in 1998 by a new owner. Nieman, speaking to reporters at a news conference, declined to further describe the knife or identify the retired officer. It was not clear why the officer

did not come forward earlier, but Neiman said it was his understanding the officer may have erroneously thought the case of the double homicide was closed. “I was really surprised,” Nei-

man said. “I would think that an LAPD officer would know that any time you come into contact with evidence, you should and shall submit that to investigators.” Simpson’s 35-year-old ex-wife and Goldman, a 25-year-old waiter, were found stabbed to death around midnight on June 13, 1994, outside her home, also in Brentwood, not far from the Simpson estate. Simpson was acquitted of the killings, but the case itself remains open. In 1997, a civil court jury found Simpson liable for the slayings and awarded millions of dollars in damages to families of the

victims. Famed lawyer F. Lee Bailey, a member of the Simpson defense team, told Boston’s Fox 25 the report of a knife found on Simpson’s estate is “ridiculous.” In any case, Bailey noted, double jeopardy would prevent Simpson being charged again for the killings. “All of the matters have been adjudicated,” he said. “The matter is closed.” Simpson, 68, is serving time in a Nevada prison for a 2007 armed robbery conviction in a case in which he and a group of cohorts in Las Vegas recovered, at gunpoint, sports memorabilia Simpson said was stolen from him.

Carson bids adieu to GOP presidential race ‘I did the math,’ one-time front-runner says David Jackson and Erin Kelly USA TODAY

HARBOR , MD. Ben Carson, the retired neurosurgeon who rose from political obscurity to a strong position in early polls last fall, dropped out of the Republican presidential race Friday after a string of disappointing finishes on Super Tuesday. Carson told the Conservative Political Action Conference that he is “leaving the campaign trail.” “Even though I might be leaving the campaign trail, you know there’s a lot of people who love me, they just won’t vote for me,” Carson said, smiling. “But I will still continue to be heavily involved in trying to save our nation.” NATIONAL

Carson said he will serve as national chairman of My Faith Votes, a non-partisan group that is working to dramatically increase voting participation by Christians in the 2016 election and beyond. Carson’s campaign announcement was hardly a surprise. In a statement Wednesday, he announced he was skipping Thursday night’s Fox News debate and said he saw no “political path forward” after doing poorly on Super Tuesday. His departure leaves four major candidates in the GOP primary race. He did not endorse anyone Friday. “I did the math,” Carson said as he explained why he dropped out of the race. “I looked at the delegate counts, and I realized it simply wasn’t going to happen.” Tuesday’s 11 primaries and

“You know, there’s a lot of people who love me, they just won’t vote for me,” Ben Carson told a CPAC audience Friday. caucuses brought no glimmers of hope for Carson, whose campaign has struggled mightily after peaking last fall. He finished no higher than fourth place in any state, with his highest level of

support coming in Alaska, where he received a paltry 11%. Across a swath of primaries in the South, with its large number of evangelical voters who at one time were key to his success, Carson

fared no better than 8% in any state. In earlier contests, Carson’s fourth-place showing in the Iowa caucuses when the field remained large was his best result. He came in eighth in New Hampshire out of nine candidates, last in South Carolina when the field had winnowed to just six, and fourth out of five in Nevada. An impoverished youth who became a world-renowned neurosurgeon, Carson’s life story helped fuel support in his first political race. At one time, Carson, who road a wave of interest among GOP voters in outsider candidates, passed front-runner Donald Trump in polling in Iowa. In the long run, however, inexperience, a lack of knowledge about foreign policy and other issues and the departure of key staffers dragged down Carson’s numbers.

al club dues of $36,000. Condominiums cost $4.9 million to $15 million; ranches with 160 to 360 acres can range up to $21 million, the website states. On Feb. 22, a judge ruled Blixseth will remain incarcerated for violating a bankruptcy judge’s order not to sell Tamarindo, a luxury property in Jalisco, Mexico, for $13.8 million in 2011, The Associated Press reported. U.S. District Judge Sam Haddon wants Blixseth to reveal what happened to the money. “Literally hundreds of thousands of dollars in disbursements made to various Blixseth family members or to entities he owned or controlled have simply vanished without adequate or even plausible explanation,” Haddon wrote in a February order, according to the AP. Blixseth told the Tribune his legal team has submitted more than 22,000 pages of documents but says that whenever he complies with the judge’s order, the bar is moved higher. Blixseth said Haddon issued a new order that greatly expanded the original order and gave him seven days to provide the information. He says most of the documents were with third parties in Spain or Mexico. “Every time I provide (the requested information) they change the requirement. It has nothing do with accounting.” Blixseth was first ordered to jail in December 2014. “When I arrived (in the courtroom) I saw two U.S. marshals in the front row,” he said. “Now it’s obvious where the hearing is heading.” He said he was ordered into custody for civil contempt of court. He appealed to the 9th Circuit Court and was released. He was hauled back into court in April. He presented the accounting and again two U.S. marshals were in the courtroom. Blixseth was found in civil contempt again. Blixseth notes that civil contempt is intended for one thing: To compel someone to obey a judge’s order. “It means ‘We’ll put you in jail, Blixseth, and when you provide the accounting, we’ll let you out,’ ” he said. His attorney, Phil Stillman, calls

The Yellowstone Club Liquidation Trust is suing Blixseth over the 2008 bankruptcy of the club near Big Sky, Mont. An attorney for the trust says there are judgments against him that total $260 million. THE $64 MILLION QUESTION

MIKE ALBANS, AP

Blixseth arrives for a 2009 federal court hearing in Missoula, Mont. He is serving time for civil contempt of court.

Blixseth’s incarceration of about 11 months “an outrage.” “He has literally fully complied with what this judge has asked him to do,” he said. “What is really disturbing to me as a lawyer is not getting someone to rule on the merits of his issues.” Blixseth doesn’t have the right to a jury trial, arraignment or bail, Stillman said. He said there is an indefinite sentence on the suspicion that he has the keys to his own cell if he cooperates. “While that is all well and good, in this particular case, everything has gone off the rails,” Stillman said, adding the accounting requirement the judge keeps changing is very difficult. “It undermines my faith in the judicial system,” Stillman said. “I can’t even get someone in the 9th Circuit to give this a review. I am aiming small.” He said Blixseth has never said, “I will not cooperate. All he has said is, ‘Here it all is.’ ”

Attorney Kevin Barrett of the West Virginia law firm of Bailey and Glasser represents the Yellowstone Club Liquidation Trust, which is suing Blixseth over the club’s 2008 bankruptcy. He said they have a couple of judgments against him that total $260 million. When asked how much of the money Blixseth still allegedly has, Barrett says, “That is the $64 million question. We don’t know if he has anything left. “He professes to have nothing. Some believe he has assets that are hidden either in the U.S. or offshore,” Barrett said. “We don’t know of any assets at this point. “I think it is pretty clear he is still hiding information.” Barrett said attorneys now have litigation pending against two entities Blixseth transferred assets to and have filed legal action against Blixseth’s wife, Jessica, and mother-in-law, Cherrill Ferguson, who live in the Seattle area. He said he has no sympathy for Blixseth over his incarceration. “He brought this upon himself and continues to bring this upon himself every day he sits there by failing to do what he needs to do by complying with the judge’s order and refusing to testify on the stand about what he did with the money,” Barrett said. Blixseth called Tamarindo his biggest misstep. “In hindsight, I should have done a motion to clarify the sale of Tamarindo,” he said. Blixseth said he prides himself on his honesty.

“I do not lie. It’s the only thing I do not do,” he said. Blixseth gave up control of the club to his ex-wife, Edra, as part of their divorce settlement in 2008, or, as Blixseth calls it, “the divorce from hell.”

“I can’t even get someone in the 9th Circuit to give this a review. I am aiming small.” Phil Stillman, attorney for Tim Blixseth

The feeling is apparently mutual. In a 2009 story in The New York Times, Edra Blixseth said, “I would rather feel the cold steel of a revolver in the roof of my mouth and pull the trigger than to ever think about living a day with that man again.” MODEST BEGINNINGS

Tim Blixseth made a fortune while young. “I grew up on welfare in Roseburg, Ore.,” he stated in a 2011 PRNewswire news release. In another, he says he ate “Spam five times a week.” In 2006, Forbes magazine asked him his high school nickname. “I was so poor they would not give me one,” he replied. He discovered his knack for the art of the deal when he was 13. He bought three donkeys for $25 each and sold them a few weeks later, now touted as “pack mules,” for a $150 profit. After high school he worked in a sawmill, then moved

into buying timber, the magazine reported. He was a multimillionaire, retired by 40, and living in Lake Tahoe. In 2006, Blixseth was ranked No. 322 out of the 400 richest Americans with a net worth of $1.2 billion. He said he has no idea what that figure is today. “My biggest problem in business is that I am not a cutthroat Wall Street guy,” he said. “Money means absolutely nothing to me. It’s just a way to get through life. “I’ve had plenty and I’ve had none.” In a Nov. 27 essay he provided to the Tribune, “A Prisoner in America Without Rights,” he said he wears earplugs most of the day to silence the screams that echo through the jail. “Communication,” he said, when asked what has been the toughest part of his incarceration, “not being able to call attorneys and other folks. “I’ve never been arrested or charged with a crime in my entire life.” He also mentioned his success in songwriting, having co-written Heart of America, which he says was used by NBC’s Today show and raised as much as $130 million to help Hurricane Katrina victims. “One thing as a kid I always believed was that even poor people like us could get the same justice the rich people could,” he said in a letter to a reporter. “As an adult I now know that money can play a big role in justice.” As far as the Yellowstone Club, that’s in the rear-view mirror. “I am not interested in getting involved in the Yellowstone Club again,” he said. Blixseth said if he wins millions in a civil lawsuit, he will set up a legal defense fund to provide lawyers for people who have lost their constitutional rights. When asked if the American Civil Liberties Union already provides that service, he says, “Not like I am going to do it.” He said they will take cases for free that “we deem to be a violation of our civil rights.” “There is no worse opponent than a zealot.” Contributing: The Associated Press

Trump’s donor history proves odd Billionaire has said he gave money to both parties for business reasons Paul Singer USA TODAY

WASHINGTON Donald Trump has indeed given money to Democrat Hillary Clinton, as his opponents for the Republican nomination for president have claimed, but federal campaign records show he broke dramatically from donating to Democrats to GOP candidates in the fall of 2010. Trump’s last donations to a Democrat came in September 2010, when he gave $12,400 in two donations to Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand, D-N.Y., and a fundraising committee benefiting her and other New York Democrats. They were his last Democratic donations, according to Federal Election Commission records. By early October, a mysterious poll had appeared in New Hampshire floating his name as a presidential candidate — Trump said he had nothing to do with it — and he told MSNBC’s Morning

Joe, “It’s probable that I won’t do it but I can tell you, I’m thinking about it. Somebody has to do something. We are losing this country. This country will not be great if something isn’t done rapidly.” Two days after that interview, Trump gave $50,000 to American Crossroads, the super PAC created by Republican uber-strategist Karl Rove. The group was backing Republican candidates across the country, including Chris Gibson, a New York Army veteran running for the U.S. House seat that Gillibrand had vacated when she was elevated to the Senate. Up to that point, Trump had given $254,000 to Democratic candidates and PACs; $182,000 to Republicans. Since then, he has donated just over $600,000 to federal campaigns, all to Republican causes and candidates, FEC records show. As Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas, one of Trump’s opponents for the Republican nomination, said, Trump did write “checks to Hilla-

ry Clinton not once, not twice, not three times. Ten times.” Trump gave $8,500 to Clinton in 10 donations between 2002 and 2009, when she was a senator from his home state of New York, and he also gave more than $100,000 to the Clinton Global Initiative, the nonprofit foundation run by her husband, former president Bill Clinton. Trump has repeatedly defended his prior donations as a business expense. “I support politicians,” he said during Thursday’s debate. “In 2008, I supported Hillary Clinton. I supported many other people, by the way. And that was because of the fact that I’m in business.” In 2012, Trump gave $45,000 to Republican Mitt Romney’s presidential campaign and endorsed Romney. He also has given $47,000 to the campaigns and PACs of Sen. John McCain of Arizona, the 2008 Republican nominee for president. Most of the Romney money was a lump sum donation to Romney fundraising committee; the donations to McCain were scattered across various campaign accounts over a 10-year

Trump’s last donations to a Democrat came in September 2010, according to Federal Election Commission records. period. Thursday, Romney called Trump a fraud during a speech in Utah, and McCain issued a statement backing Romney’s attack. Trump has also funded his presidential opponents. In January 2014, he gave $5,000 to the PAC supporting Cruz; in October of that year he donated $12,600 to a fundraising effort by Sen. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, who dropped out of the presidential race in December 2015. Campaign records show that Trump has also given to a bipartisan collection of officials who have encountered ethical problems, many of whom had to resign from office. They include: uRep. Rob Andrews, DN.J.: In 2008, Trump gave

$6,900 to Andrews, who left Congress while the House Ethics Committee was investigating his use of campaign funds for personal activities. uRep. Charles Rangel, DN.Y.: On several occasions between 2001 and 2005, Trump donated to Rangel’s campaign and a PAC Rangel runs, totaling $26,000. Rangel was censured by the House in 2010 for failure to pay taxes on a vacation property and improperly fundraising from organizations that had business before his committee. uRep. Mark Foley, R-Fla.: Trump gave $8,500 to Foley in several donations between 1997 and 2006. Foley quit Congress in 2006 when it was revealed he had been sending sexually suggestive messages to teenage boys in the congressional page program. uRep. Anthony Weiner, DN.Y.: In 2007 and again in 2010, Trump donated to Weiner, who’s married to Huma Abedin, one of Hillary Clinton’s top aides. The donations totaled $4,300. Weiner resigned in 2011 after it was revealed he was sending sexually suggestive texts to a variety of women.

FACT CHECK THE DETROIT REPUBLICAN DEBATE Eugene Kiely, Brooks Jackson, Lori Robertson, D’Angelo Gore and Vanessa Schipani l FactCheck.org

Fox News hosted Thursday night’s debate, the GOP’s 11th, in Detroit between Donald Trump, Ted Cruz, Marco Rubio and John Kasich. Our wrap-up of false and misleading claims: uSen. Marco Rubio said businessman Donald Trump inherited $100 million from his father for his business, while Trump said he started with only $1 million. Both are stretching the facts. uTrump claimed the government could save “hundreds of billions of dollars in waste” through negotiating prescription drug prices. But that’s well above the entire yearly spending for Medicare Part D. uTrump grossly exaggerated the U.S. trade deficit with China and falsely claimed that the U.S. runs a trade deficit with “every country.” uSen. Ted Cruz claimed that a study showed the 1994 assault weapons ban “did nothing to reduce violent crime.” Not true. The study reported “mixed” results. uTrump repeated a bogus claim that the wife of a 9/11 terrorist left the U.S. two days prior to the 2001 attacks and that she “knew exactly what was happening.” uTrump said he was “always against going into Iraq.” He was an early critic of the war, but there is no record of him speaking against the war before it started. uTrump claimed that Trump University has an “A” rating from the Better Business Bureau, but the last rating we could Corrections & Clarifications USA TODAY is committed to accuracy.

Russian President Putin. Trump had said it was “a great honor” to be complimented by the “highly respected” Putin.

And Trump, Cruz and Ohio Gov. John Kasich all repeated claims we’ve fact-checked before. uTrump falsely claimed he is beating Clinton “very, very easily” in a “recent” Fox News poll, when in fact the most recent poll released Feb. 18 showed Clinton ahead, 47%-42%. He also said he is beating her in “many polls,” as he has done before, citing the USA TODAY/Suffolk University poll and the Quinnipiac University poll. Trump is ahead 45%43% in the USA TODAY poll, but that is the only one of the 10 most recent polls that shows Trump beating Clinton — and it is within the margin of error. He is trailing Clinton in the last Quinnipiac poll, 44%-43%, which is also

within the margin of error. uKasich said that in Ohio, “We’re up over 400,000 jobs.” As we wrote when he made a similar claim in both the seventh and ninth GOP debates — as well as the 10th — Ohio has gained 400,700 private-sector jobs under Kasich. But the job growth rate in Ohio was 9.3%, lower than the national private-sector growth rate of 11.7%. uCruz claimed that the Affordable Care Act was “the biggest job-killer in America.” In the last debate, he said the law had “killed millions of jobs,” as he also said in the seventh debate. But the economy has actually gained millions of jobs since Obama signed the ACA into law, and it has added 2.4 million since January 2015 when the employer mandate went into effect.

IN BRIEF ASSAD PROTESTS SPREAD ONE WEEK INTO CEASE-FIRE

Less than a week into a tenuous cease-fire in Syria, anti-government protests spread Friday across much of the territory held by rebel forces that have been fighting to overthrow the regime of President Bashar Assad. Images posted to social media show large crowds with banners and speakers using megaphones, reportedly in Azaz, in Maarat alNuman, where several wellknown rebel leaders from Idlib were photographed, and in the Damascus suburb of Ghouta, among many other locations. Photos on social media showed banners with the slogan “The revolution continues.” Another, “Sykes-Picot 1916; Lavrov-Kerry 2016,” compared the post-World War I agreement by world powers that set the modern borders of the Middle East to talk of federalizing Syria by Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov and U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry. According to Norwegian-Emirati Syria watcher Iyad El-Baghdadi, there were 104 protests across rebel-held Syria Friday. — Oren Dorell

The city said the finalists include Mark Becker, the current East Chicago, Ind., police chief; Brenda Jones, a former police chief in Pine Bluff, Ark.; Frank McCall Jr., the police chief in nearby Berkeley, Mo.; and Delrish Moss, who oversees the Miami Police Department’s public information/community relations division. — Aamer Madhani

The U.S. Justice Department asked a judge Thursday in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Oklahoma to dismiss the charges. McClendon on Monday was indicted by a federal grand jury for allegedly conspiring to rig bids for oil and natural gas leases. Dismissal “would best meet the ends of justice in that the defendant is now deceased,” Kalina M. Tulley, assistant chief of the Chicago Office of the Justice Department’s Antitrust Division, said.

Yahoo shares were up nearly 3% Friday to $33.86. The stock has risen 22% over the last three weeks but it’s down 24% over the last 12 months. Initially, Starboard supported Yahoo’s plan to spin off its stake in Alibaba, currently valued at about $27 billion. However, Yahoo abandoned those plans over concerns of a significant tax hit on the transaction, a move Starboard supported, and instead said it would pursue either a reverse spin — that is, spinning off Yahoo’s Web assets — or selling parts of core Yahoo. Activist investors have pushed for a sale. Since then, Mayer announced a cost-cutting plan and the formation of a strategic review committee to engage with potential buyers for core Web assets such as Yahoo Mail and Yahoo Sports. Nearly 40 potential bidders including AT&T, Verizon, Time Inc. and multiple private equity firms, have emerged, the person told the Post. The reverse spin strategy, aimed at separating the Alibaba stake from the rest of Yahoo, is expected to take nine to 12 months, Yahoo Chief Finance Officer Ken Goldman said.

Yahoo’s board reportedly plans to meet next week with one of the activist investors seeking a proxy fight for the board, which is under pressure to sell assets after CEO Marissa Mayer’s turnaround efforts failed to gain traction. The board of Yahoo is expected to meet next week with shareholder Starboard Value, persons close to the situation have told the New York Post. Starboard CEO Jeffrey Smith has urged Yahoo to make management changes and sell some of its core assets. The fund was prepared to nominate an opposing slate of candidates to the board at the end of the March, USA TODAY reported this month.

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

After a rousing rally off the lows on Feb. 11, the law of big round numbers may finally be catching up with major U.S. stock indexes such as the Dow Jones industrial average and S&P 500. The numbers in question are 17,000 on the Dow and 2,000 on the S&P 500. It’s not unusual for major indexes such as the Dow and S&P 500 that suffer steep downturns to have trouble breaking back above prior milestone markers in the market on the way back up. In Wall Street-speak, it is called “overhead resistance.” Basically, what makes it difficult for the Dow to bang through an old key level like, say, Dow 17,000, is the fact that many investors were

likely buyers of stocks around this level and so will use the rally back to old levels as a good time to exit their once-losing position, recoup their losses and get their cash back when they are back to even. The same challenge faces the S&P 500 at 2,000. Friday, both the blue-chip Dow and the large-company S&P 500 topped the 17,000 and 2,000 levels, respectively, although only the Dow closed above its-2.07 key 5-day avg.: milestone. 6-month avg.: -10.68 The Dow Largest closedholding: up 63 points AAPL Friday to 17,007, while theAAPL S&P Most bought: 500 finished up nearly seven Most sold: AA points to close an eyelash below 2,000 at 1,999.99. If both stock indexes can break out above these key levels for good, it would be a bullish sign for the market and another sign of healing after the worst start to a year for stocks in history.

Investors trust Buffett to better handle money Q: Why doesn’t Berkshire pay a dividend? Matt Krantz

mkrantz@usatoday.com USA TODAY

A: By the time companies get to the size and maturity of Warren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway, investors often demand a dividend. Buffett is exempt. Berkshire Hathaway is one of just four companies in the Standard & Poor’s 500 valued at $200 billion or more that pay no dividend, according to a USA TODAY analysis of data from S&P Global Market Intelligence. Other giant companies that don’t pay dividends are much younger than Berkshire, including Facebook, Alphabet and Amazon.com. Understanding why Berkshire doesn’t pay a dividend gets to the core of the company. Berkshire long has been a collection of businesses that generate cash Buffett can use to invest in other companies. Investors long have figured the cash generated by Berkshire’s stable of companies can be put to better use by Buffett than by themselves. The same is often not the case with other companies, which might be tempted to waste excess cash on acquisitions that erode long-term value. Investors looking to invest in giant companies that generate large dividends have alternatives. AT&T and Verizon have dividend yields of 5.1% and 4.4%, respectively.

Report: Americans love to lease, borrow more when they buy Greg Gardner

Detroit Free Press

Americans are leasing more new vehicles than ever and borrowing more than ever when they buy, says Experian Automotive in its quarterly “State of Automotive Financing” report. A third of new car and truck transactions in the last three months of 2015 were leases, up from 29.9% a year earlier and more than 10 percentage points higher than in the fourth quarter of 2011. The average new auto loan reached a record $29,551, up

PATRICK T. FALLON, BLOOMBERG

4% from a year earlier. This data comes one week after Fitch Ratings reported delinquencies of securities backed by subprime auto loans reached their highest level since September 2009. Still, automakers are on

track to beat last year’s U.S. record of 17.5 million vehicles sold. “People shop for vehicles largely based on vehicle price, and right now average dollar amounts for new vehicle loans are soaring,” said Melinda Zabritski, Experian senior director of automotive finance. “In order to stay within their budget goals, we have seen that more consumers are turning to leasing and used vehicles as alternatives.” The average length of new-car loans grew. It’s now 67 months, up one month from the fourth quarter of 2014. The average used car loan was for 63 months, up

from 62 a year earlier. Most used car loans are for less money. But among riskier subprime and deep subprime borrowers, the average new-car loan is for 72 months with an average interest rate of 10%, according to Experian. That compares with an average of 4.63% for all new-car loans. In the fourth quarter of 2015, 29% of new auto loans were for between 73 and 84 months, up from 9.6% in 2010. The problem with longer loans is that the borrower soon owes more than the vehicle is worth as its value depreciates faster than the payments reduce the loan’s

balance. Unlike the easy credit that triggered the housing market collapse, in which many mortgages carried adjustable interest rates, or only required interest payments initially, most auto loans are made at a fixed interest rate. But the lower a person’s credit score, the higher the interest rate on the loan. So the loss of a job or an unexpected medical bill could easily cause a missed car payment for a month or two. The total outstanding balance of all new and used vehicle loans was $987 billion at the end of last year, up 11% from 2014.

Anatomy of a celebrity red-carpet photo shoot Carly Mallenbaum USA TODAY

On the days after awards shows such as the Oscars, stargazers might find themselves flipping through dozens of celebrity photos, making split-second assessments of the actors’ outfits, faces and jewelry. Something viewers might not think about while forming bestdressed lists in their heads: What goes into creating that red-carpet moment? Actress Ashley Greene, who starred as Alice Cullen in the Twilight movies and plays Mia in Rogue (March 23; available to DirecTV and AT&T U-verse customers), gave us a taste of the red carpet and talked us through the anatomy of a specific press line photo. This one was from Sunday’s elite Elton John AIDS Foundation Oscar viewing party.

One of comedy’s stars, Zosia Mamet, takes a three-week road trip with Aidy Bryant

Patrick Ryan USA TODAY

Shoshanna Shapiro has finally unlocked the mystery of who she is. “That I’m secretly a Japanese person,” says Zosia Mamet, 28, whose Girls character this season takes a marketing job in Tokyo, where she’s seen in Sunday’s episode of the HBO comedy (10 p.m. ET/PT). Shosh is “a very quirky, specific individual, and the way that Japanese culture embraces that makes her feel at ease. She feels like she’s spreading her Japanese wings.” “She’s spreading her Japanese wings!” sings Saturday Night Live star Aidy Bryant, 28, who returns as Shosh’s American-based boss, Abigail. “If you could really push that song, that’d be great. It’s actively been dismissed here.” Mamet quips: “Yeah, Japanese charts are loving it, but it hasn’t quite hit here yet.” Now in its fifth season, Girls follows the personal and professional misadventures of four hapless twentysomethings in New York (played by Mamet, Allison Williams, Jemima Kirke and creator Lena Dunham). Toward the end of last season, Dunham and executive producer Jenni Konner told Mamet that they were considering sending Shosh to Japan, after the character’s failed attempts at landing a job and reuniting with ex-boyfriend Ray (Alex Karpovsky). “At that point, it was like, ‘Right, but we’d never go to Japan,’ ” Mamet says. “Next season, it’d be like, ‘Oh, no, instead we NEW YORK

They want to see the front of the dress, the back of the dress, have you turn this way, smile and not smile. ... The best advice is just to ignore them and know what you’re gonna do on the carpet and stick to it, because otherwise you look like a deer caught in the headlights.” THE DRESS

sent you to Jersey!’ ” Even at the start of Season 5, “it was unclear if we were actually going to go or if we were going to cheat New York and send someone” to shoot exterior scenes. They eventually decided to ship Mamet and a small crew to Tokyo, where they filmed for nearly three weeks last summer. Bryant — whose character resurfaces in a larger role later this season — tagged along for the sweaty sojourn. “It was true friendship, because it’s 99% humidity there in the summer,” Bryant says. “It’s like being inside of a mouth — it’s really rough.” Some of their scenes were shot guerrilla-style on bustling Takeshita Street, a food and shopping mecca that Mamet best describes as “Times Square in an alley.” Shosh also visits a fetish club with a potential love interest (Hiro Mizushima) and a day spa where she and Abby get fish pedicures, which are exactly as unpleasant as they sound. “You put your feet into a little fish tank and the fish eat the dead skin,” Bryant says, cringing. “When I saw pictures of it, I just assumed they were little sucker fish who’d skim your foot and suck away, but you can feel them chomp.” Last summer’s visit was their first to Asia, although Bryant says, “If I ever do go back, it has to be with Z.” Both made sure to buy plenty of mementos before leaving — facial masks, wind-up toys and kimonos, among them — although their Japanese vocabulary is still lacking. “The only thing I remember is ‘Kawaii!’ It’s like, cute, but it’s extra cute,” Mamet says. Adds Bryant, “My favorite and only thing I learned was ‘Sumimasen!’ which means, ‘Excuse me, I’m sorry.’ Basically everywhere I went, I was like, ‘Sumimasen! I need to go to the bathroom!’ ”

Shoshanna (Zosia Mamet) feels more at home living and working in Tokyo than in New York.

In her pre-Oscars dress fitting, Greene, 29, had narrowed her choices to three: a plunging purple Amanda Wakeley dress, a red off-shoulder Safiyaa gown and a beaded Naeem Khan number. Greene opted for the third dress. “I showed a photo of it (to a friend), and he’s like ‘That’s beautiful, and you could tell you feel good in it.’ I’m glad he said that, because I had already picked it out,” Greene says. The choice called for a quick and complicated alteration from Greene’s tailor, Pasha. “Anything he had to take in or take off, he took off the beads and then altered it and put it back on. He’s a magician.” THE JEWELRY

Some of their scenes were shot guerrillastyle on bustling Takeshita Street, a food and shopping mecca that Mamet best describes as “Times Square in an alley.”

Greene borrowed a Bulgari ring and droplet earrings that are “probably worth more than my house” for the event, she says. “I did a Save the Children campaign with (Bulgari) and worked with them a few times. ... So they brought over a couple of options, and I immediately gravitated toward this ring. Literally, I’m returning it here before I leave.” THE SHOES

Greene wore borrowed strappy black Jimmy Choos. “I think I’m gonna go buy them,” she says, because they stayed comfortable throughout the long night. THE PARTY

Photos from the red carpet often are the primary visual from an event. But so much goes on inside, away from the red-carpet cameras. Greene’s fashion photo was taken well before she watched the Academy Awards from monitors in the tented ballroom. “When Leonardo DiCaprio won, the entire room erupted, and it was like we were actually at the Oscars.” Another big moment from the party: when host Elton John performed for more than an hour.

March is the ideal month for planting peas Garden Variety

Jennifer Smith

eady for gardening season? So are peas. March is the go-to time for pea planting in the Lawrence area. Many gardeners try to have pea seeds in the ground prior to St. Patrick’s Day, although they can be planted through the end of April if delayed for some reason. Technically, they are best planted when soil temperatures have reached at least 50 degrees. Peas are easy to grow in containers, raised beds or traditional garden spaces. There are a couple of different types of peas from which to choose and also different varieties of each of those types. Standard old-fashioned peas, such as Little Marvel and Green Arrow are best eaten when shelled from their pods. Snow peas (or Oriental types), including Mammoth Sugar, grow similarly to standard peas but produce thin, tender pods that are best eaten whole before the peas fully develop inside. Newer peas like Sugar Snap produce thick but flavorful pods and are tasty when eaten in any stage of development of pod and pea. Pea plants need support and produce tendrils to help them climb, so plan to include a small fence or trellis or run a string stretched between two posts along the rows. If planting in rows, the small

PEA PLANTS PRODUCE TENDRILS to help them climb, so be sure to include a small fence or some kind of trellis to support them. fence or string line can be set between two rows placed close together (4 to 6 inches apart). Leave enough room on each side of the row to easily harvest the peas once the crop has grown. If planting in a raised bed or container, use a trellis or pole to support plants. Dense plantings are another option. Pea plants will grow upon and support each other

although they are somewhat more difficult to pick when grown in this fashion. After planting, the seeds and subsequent plants can be left alone until peas and pods are ready to harvest in late May and June. In extended dry periods, plants may benefit from supplemental watering, but in most springs it is unnecessary. Start watching for pods in

May. If growing snow peas, harvest pods before the peas inside get big. For ediblepodded type, harvest pods early or wait until the peas fully develop. Pods have a shorter shelf-life than the peas themselves, so plan to use them soon after harvest. For shelling peas, harvest when peas are fully developed inside the pod. Pea plants dislike the warm weather of Kansas summers, so expect them to fade in late June to early July. Once vines dry, they can be removed and space can be re-used for a different crop for fall or left fallow. Pea plants sometimes suc-

cumb to root rots in cool, wet springs. Many pea varieties are also susceptible to powdery mildew, but the disease heightens when plants are already fading in summer. Sweet peas, black-eyed peas, cowpeas (Southern peas) and chickpeas (garbanzo beans) are unrelated to the green pea and have different growing requirements. — Jennifer Smith is a former horticulture extension agent for KState Research and Extension and horticulturist for Lawrence Parks and Recreation.

Pick the right paint finish for your projects

he amount of light reflected or absorbed by any painted surface is determined by the finish or sheen of the paint. The reflection of light changes the perception of color, and the finish of the paint determines its durability and its washability.

‘Spring cleaning’ is a chance to spring for trendy decor By Kim Cook Associated Press

or some people, spring cleaning entails not much more than a good shake of the carpets. For others, it’s an excuse to update room decor. Here’s a sampling of this season’s new palettes, patterns and styles:

AP Photos

Clockwise from top left: A Boston Interiors chair sports an impressionist watercolor print; the tie-dye pattern of this Dot & Bo pillow is in style this spring; the Oh Joy acrylic table from Joy Cho’s new collection for Target features subdued, sophisticated pastels.

for the faint of heart. Musician Lenny Kravitz has collaborated with CB2 on a furniture collection inspired by ’70s-era New York club culture and the California music scene. A white lacquered media cabinet with brushed steel doors and a round, walnut-topped, white coffee table with concealed storage are standout pieces. Neon-hued acrylic fits the era’s vibe; Land of Nod has flamingo and palm-tree nightlights, while Los Angeles designer Alexandra von Furstenberg displayed a suite of sleek, neon acrylic serveware at the Mod and modern recent NY Now show. On the heels of the Crate & Barrel has midcentury revival, some launched ARTWORKS, retailers are banking on a limited-edition collecthe 1980s Italian posttion of Modernist canvas modernist style known prints. as Memphis to be the On the surface next big thing. CharacSurfaces are the focus terized by bold geometin distressed rugs, texric designs and often tured throw pillows, and clashing colors, it’s not including Vardo, a teal, and Inchyra Blue, a dramatic blue-gray. White — which Benjamin Moore named color of the year — is also trending. The timing’s perfect, says Kimberly Winthrop of interior design service Laurel & Wolf: “Bright white is spring cleaning in its truest sense. There’ll be a lot of focus this year on incorporating whites with natural elements and textures into one’s space.” Consider painting an existing piece of furniture, bringing in side tables or lighting, or changing window coverings to white.

bohemian style is easy to embrace. Its influences are global: India, Africa, Latin America. But the eclecticism often comes from a mashup of decorative styles and layered elements. At NY Now, New York designer John Robshaw showed a collection of softly hued woodblockprinted textiles inspired by the gardens, crafts and clothing seen on his travels in Northern India. Hudson & Vine stocks a whimsical collection of animals crafted from reclaimed oil drums. Urban Outfitters has African mudcloth-printed bedding from Deny Designs; medallion-printed tapestries, rugs and pillow covers; and a selection of eclectic headboards made from macrame, reclaimed wood, rattan and iron. Homegoods has some carved and painted African objets d’art, trays and vases as well as kuba cloth poufs. One of Hoffman’s favorite trends this spring is a combination of boho and minimalism. Designs are pared down to core elements — color, pattern and texture. She suggests getting this eclectic style by using neutrals and accenting furniture with hints of deep indigo.

Colors Neither boring nor drab, new neutrals are about bringing home a sense of calm and comfort. Some pastels are chalkier, like sorbet that’s been given a whisk of cream. Then there are the organic hues of earth, sky and water. We see neutrals most often in minimalist decor, like an unglazed, branch-shaped pitcher at CB2 the color of a stormy sea, or Ikea’s trim Mostorp media unit in a soft, rosy hue. Even Le Creuset is offering its signature cast ironware in pale pink and lemon. Los Angeles designer Joy Cho’s new collection at Target is filled with fun, frothy pieces like an acrylic side table covered in polka dots, animal figurines in little party hats, and printed throw pillows and wall art saying, “You’re OK.” Warm neutrals — peach, blush, putty, mint and charcoal — contribute to the airy, feel-good vibe. West Elm has partnered with Roar + Rabbit design studio on a home collection that includes a sexy, midcentury-modern swivel chair dressed in shades called lichen, nickel or dusky blush velvet. The energy shifts with several bold hues that ride the current retro wave. Turquoise, acid yellow, emerald, pink and red are showing up, mostly in accessories and textiles. Kirstin Hoffman, merchandising director for online decor retailer Dot & Bo, says hot pinks are trending: “Whether they’re incorporated in an accent chair or a planter, the look instantly adds energy to a room.” A range of new baking items and dish towels at Crate & Barrel come in a yellow as cheery as a sunny-side-up egg. And you’ll be seeing lots of lush, green, tropical motifs for spring and summer. Beautiful blues — sapphire, navy and a variety of turquoises, teals and pale blues — are strong players on the spring palette. Wisteria has a settee in a rich jewel tone, while Ikea’s got new loveseat covers in deep and delicate blues. Boston Interiors’ Conrad chair is upholstered in a watercolor-blue abstract, while Farrow & Ball has added some lush hues,

jute and cotton like a 3-D rag rug. Cork has popped up in lots of new decor. Accessories in particular lend themselves to the sustainable material’s pleasant feel, but it’s in furniture now, too. Ikea’s new Sinnerlig collection from London designer Ilse Crawford includes stools and benches with cork seats, as well as coffee and dining tables.

Traylor’s big dunk drawing raves By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Benton Smith basmith@ljworld.com

Self sees Jayhawks making progress on defense Bill Self has coached too many lock-down one-onone defenders and abovethe-rim intimidators in his time at Kansas University to automatically include his current collection of Jayhawks with the best defensive teams he has put on the floor in his 12-plus seasons at KU. Still, the more Self sees defensively from the No. 1-ranked Jayhawks, who have defended better as a unit since junior Landen Lucas became a fixture in the starting lineup, the coach can’t help appreciating the progress. When March started feeling closer than ever, KU’s players took their defensive efforts to the next level. Kansas, which began its current 10-game winning streak with an overtime victory over Kentucky on the final Saturday of January, went 9-0 in a leap-year February by hounding opponents into poor offensive nights. Kansas State (.415) and Oklahoma State (.407) barely managed to top 40-percent shooting against KU. In seven other victories, the Jayhawks held their adversaries to 37.7-percent shooting or lower. On the month, KU’s competition combined to make only .352 from the floor — and .312 on three-pointers. Those are the types of numbers Self loves to see. So even with a small sample size, he concedes this group, at least in the past few weeks, is playing comparable defense to his best KU teams. “I think we guard actions fairly well,” Self said of one of the Jayhawks’ strengths. “I still think we struggle guarding the ball, which is the hardest thing to guard, and we’ve had other teams that do that much better. But we’ve gotten better.” More importantly, Self decisively says this Kansas team is better defensively than either of the past two seasons, when the Jayhawks failed to reach the NCAA Tournament’s Sweet 16, suffering upset defeats to Stanford in 2014 and Wichita State a year ago. KU’s upperclassmen core of senior Perry Ellis and juniors Wayne Selden Jr. and Frank Mason III played a part in those early upsets and defensive lapses the past two seasons. Self called those teams “probably the weakest” defensively he has coached at Kansas. “But here of late, now granted Iowa State can come hang a hundred on us,” Self warned of today’s opponent for the Allen Fieldhouse finale, “but here of late, we have guarded better than probably for a longer period of time than the last two teams had.” The Jayhawks need to maintain their newly discovered defensive prowess in the weeks ahead to live up to what will surely be a No. 1 NCAA tourney seed and avoid a third straight postseason letdown. Fifth-year senior Jamari Please see SMITH, page 3D

Jamari Traylor’s name — and clips of the Kansas University forward’s high-flying dunk Monday at Texas — have been all over social media this week. “My Twitter has been non-stop. You can’t get on

Twitter without seeing it,” Traylor, a 6-foot-8 senior from Chicago, said of the rim-rattler that followed an alley-oop feed from Devonté Graham in the Jayhawks’ 86-56 victory. “My favorite reaction? Carlton (Bragg Jr.) had a good one. My least favorite reaction was coach. I was

walking to the sideline. He was, ‘Get to the free-throw line, Mari (following a foul on the play). C’mon, it’s over with.’ “I was like, ‘Can’t we have some fun with it?’’’ Traylor added, smiling, at a Thursday news conference called to discuss today’s Senior Day contest (for Traylor,

Perry Ellis, Evan Manning, Hunter Mickelson) against Iowa State (3 p.m., Allen). Suffice it to say, KU coach Bill Self loved the dunk, as well as Traylor’s driving one-handed slam against Kansas State on Feb. 20 in Manhattan. Please see HOOPS, page 3D Traylor

LAWRENCE HIGH’S OLIVIA LEMUS, RIGHT, BATTLES SHAWNEE MISSION WEST’S Emma Van Donselaar. The Lions lost in the sub-state finals, 57-41, on Friday night at LHS.

SM West finishes Lions’ season, 57-41 By Benton Smith basmith@ljworld.com

Youthful exuberance kept Lawrence High’s girls basketball players charged and relentless in pursuit of a substate title Friday night on their home court. But Shawnee Mission West’s veteran poise proved too much for the Lions to overcome in a season-ending, 57-41 loss.

The Vikings, starting three seniors and two juniors, looked more polished offensively to open the game and close it. The Lions, starting two juniors, two freshmen and a sophomore, couldn’t consistently match West’s confidence and instead fell victim to mismatches in a pair of lulls that bookended the defeat. “They came out super-

aggressive,” LHS coach Jeff Dickson said of SMW, which advanced to the Class 6A state tournament on the backs of junior center Kenzie Loe (18 points, eight rebounds) and junior forward Elena Artis (scored eight of her 16 in the fourth). “They hit some shots early. I felt like we got some good looks, but we didn’t hit those shots, so we dug ourselves a little bit

of a hole, and it kind of put us back on our heels a little bit.” In fact, the Lions (12-10) played from behind all night due to their first-quarter offensive struggles. LHS started the game in a scoreless, 11-point hole after missing its first 10 field-goal attempts. The amped-up home team even turned the ball over five Please see LIONS, page 3D

Free State stumbles against Rural, 58-38 By Bobby Nightengale bnightengale@ljworld.com

Sam Goodwin/Special to the Journal-World

FREE STATE’S MADISON PIPER HEADS DOWNCOURT against Washburn Rural. The Firebirds fell in the sub-state finals, 58-38, on Friday night in Topeka.

Topeka — Shots weren’t falling for Free State High’s girls basketball players on Friday, and they couldn’t get consistent stops on defense. That’s a deadly combination in the postseason. The Firebirds couldn’t fight back from a doubledigit deficit in the second half against Washburn Rural and suffered a season-ending 58-38 loss at Washburn Rural in the sub-state finals. The Junior Blues will play in the Class 6A state tournament for the fourth straight year. For Free State, it was just

the wrong day to have an off game, ending the season with a 14-8 record. “Our defense wasn’t there tonight, and they have amazing players that we just didn’t stop,” FSHS junior Madison Piper said. “We just didn’t get it done tonight.” From the beginning, the Firebirds made some uncharacteristic mistakes against a team they beat in January. Some passes flew through the hands of the intended target. Other typical chest passes were aimed at knees. In the first 31⁄2 minutes, the Firebirds missed their Please see FIREBIRDS, page 3D

Peoria, Ariz. (ap) — Lorenzo Cain doubled and scored before leaving as a precaution after getting hit on the right foot in the Kansas City Royals’ 3-1 loss to the San Diego Padres on Friday night. Cain took Ryan Buchter’s 93 mph fastball off his instep in the fifth and went to the ground. The All-Star outfielder limped off and then stayed in the dugout. “There was some nerves down there that made it go numb on him,” manager Ned Yost said. “But by the time he walked out of here, he was fine.” Yordano Ventura allowed Matt Kemp’s double while pitching two scoreless innings. It was his first outing since taking the loss in Game 3 of the World Series, the Royals’ only defeat before winning the title. Kendrys Morales drove in Cain with a double off first baseman Wil Myers’ glove in the third. Rotation candidate Colin Rea gave up two hits in two scoreless innings for the Padres. He struck out Drew Butera with the bases loaded on his final pitch. Cain’s departure provided the Royals with a second injury scare this week. Jarrod Dyson (oblique) was hurt swinging Wednesday and likely will start the season on the disabled list. Paulo Orlando, the top candidate to replace Dyson in right field, went 1-for-3 with a strikeout. Adam Rosales’ RBI double off Peter Moylan in the eighth put San Diego ahead. Yost said Cain has a scheduled day off today. Dyson will rest another week before starting a rehab program.

Beaty: Injury to limit QB Willis in spring By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

Kansas University football coach David Beaty late Friday morning revealed that sophomore quarterback Ryan Willis recently suffered an injured wrist playing pick-up basketball and will be limited during spring practices, which begin Sunday. The full extent of Willis’ injury was not re-

“When you cut your elbow on the rim and need five stitches, that would lead you to believe it was an athletic play,” Self said of the Texas jam. “I thought it was unbelievable. The camera angle up top made it look like he was looking down at the rim. It was a pretty special play.” It was engineered by somebody Self considers a very special person. Traylor, who survived a period of homelessness during his high school years in Chicago, has already graduated from KU with a Liberal Arts and Sciences degree despite being deemed a partial qualifier by the NCAA back in 2011. “Jamari will go down as one of my all-time guys because just to see where he started and where he is now is remarkable,” Self said. “He was dealt a hand that most of us will never see, fortunately, and there are multiple hands that would impact any young man, whether it be family crisis, economic situations, being homeless for a period of time — fight, scrap for shelter, for food which at age 15 or 16 that’s not something anybody would wish on any kid. To see how he’s come and they said he wasn’t qualified academically. Well, he graduated in four years, and he’s working on post-grad stuff now. There are just so many things that he’s done. “From a basketball standpoint, teaching the young guys, being a great teammate and an energy guy ... He’s definitely one of the two or three best leaders on our team.” Traylor, in fact, took control after KU (26-4, 14-3; today’s foe ISU is 21-9, 10-7) fell to 4-2 in the Big 12 after a 19-point loss at Oklahoma State. League champion KU is 10-1 since that day. “In the locker room after that game, I was chewing guys out,” Traylor said. (I said) ‘If we want to be a serious team we can’t have games like that.’ I feel we’ve been taking everything a lot more serious. We’ve had a couple slip-ups since then but we’ve been making strides to get better.” Traylor today will welcome his mom, Tracey, who Jamari thanks for her “tough love” growing up, his younger brother, Jamani, and some other relatives to Senior Day. “I talked to coach. I was like, ‘Man I don’t know what to say (in postgame speech).’ He told me just say what’s from the heart. I’m just going to wing it when I go out there,” Jamari said. Traylor could shed a

vealed, but it is believed that he will still participate in various portions of spring Willis practice, including working on his drops, mental reps and other aspects that minimize the risk of contact. “We will monitor Ry-

an’s injury, and he will be back as a full participant whenever our doctors allow it,” Beaty said. Willis, a Bishop Miege graduate who started eight games last season in place of opening-week starter Montell Cozart, who was injured midway through the season, set a handful of freshman passing records and showed off his impressive arm strength and toughness as a competitor.

With 1,719 yards and nine touchdowns, he became the sixth freshman since 1937 to lead the team in passing and threw at least one touchdown pass in six straight games. That stretch included a career-best 350 yards on 35-of-50 passing in KU’s loss to Texas Tech. Willis also played in relief during two other games, the season opener and KU’s loss at Iowa State.

tear when talking about his family and/or Self. “It means a lot to me,” he said of his coach’s support the last five years. “I know he loves me off the court. My personality ... I guess it speaks to him because I’m so different. He’s like an old dude. He tries to understand me. I feel that’s really cool. I’ve got nothing but love for coach Self.” Everybody would love if Traylor went out with a bang, perhaps concoct another vicious dunk or two that would wind up on ESPN SportsCenter. His last dunk vs Texas was No. 3 on Plays of the Day Monday night, but by Tuesday morning had rocketed to No. 1. “I mean it’s up there. It’s cool. I’m just glad somebody saw it. I’ll take that, though,” he said with a smile.

reach the 2012 national championship game by defending maniacally. “They were a great defensive team, and I feel like this last month or so we’ve been pretty much getting after it defensively,” Traylor said, correctly guessing foes had only hit about 35 percent of their shots during KU’s turnaround. “That’s one of the reasons we’ve been

red-shirt freshman Carter Stanley and returning senior Deondre Ford also figure to get more reps in the wake of Willis’ injury. KU also has walk-on freshman Dagan Haehn in town for spring practices, though he, too, is coming off of a significant injury, and will get help at the position this summer when incoming freshman Tyriek Starks reports to campus.

Iowa State vs. Kansas University Probable Starters

His strong season was one of the few bright spots for KU football during last year’s 0-12 campaign, and it was expected that Willis would enter 2016 as the clearcut favorite to win the starting job. That may change with him limited this spring and KU still having other options at quarterback. Cozart is still on the roster and moving closer to being fully healthy, and

times before scoring its first basket of the night 6:44 into the game. Six-foot senior forward Alexis Boyd came in off the bench to get Lawrence out of its funk, gathering her own miss and putting the ball back up and through the net for the first time in the pressurepacked playoff game. Just as important, junior guard Skylar Drum drove in for a buzzerbeating layup to end the first, allowing the Lions, down 13-4 entering the second, some sense of momentum and accomplishment after a damaging start. “Our shots just weren’t falling,” Drum said after

scoring nine points in the loss, “and we weren’t looking inside as much. We were just shooting it from the outside. But we didn’t hang our heads, and that’s why we were able to come back a little bit in the third quarter.” By the second half, the Lions’ heads weren’t spinning quite as much, and their resiliency kept them chipping away at SMW (12-10). Drum drilled a three-pointer to cut the deficit to five, and a couple of minutes later Lawrence was down only three when junior Olivia Lemus made another shot from downtown. The Lions, though, got no closer than two, when sophomore Talima Harjo set up freshman center Chisom Ajekwu (12 points, seven rebounds, three blocks) for a bucket in the paint. The Vikings responded

KU will host Denver at noon on Sunday.

Kansas baseball falls to BYU For the fourth time in nine games, Kansas University’s baseball team stranded 12 base-runners, and the Jayhawks dropped game two of a three-game set to BYU, 8-2, Friday evening at Hoglund Ballpark. Kansas (3-6) left at least one runner on base in all but one inning, the ninth. The Jayhawks’ prime opportunities to drive in those runners came in the fourth and sixth innings, where BYU (9-1) used

first seven shots and turned the ball over twice. By the end of the first half, they were shooting 22 percent (5-of-23) from the floor and trailed by eight points. “I think what happened was we came out and we were way too sped up,” said Piper, who had a game-high 19 points and eight rebounds. “We were way too excited to play.” Free State finally found some rhythm offensively in the first quarter when Piper swished a threepointer, assisted by senior Hannah Walter, starting a 7-0 run for a one-point lead. Piper added a putback and senior forward Peyton Brown made a short floater. But Washburn Rural freshman forward Carly Bachelor responded with a buzzer-beating putback at the end of the first quarter, giving the Junior Blues an 8-7 lead, and they never trailed again. In the final four minutes of the second quarter, Bachelor, a 5-foot-11 stretch forward, went on a personal 7-0 run to end the first half. Bachelor scored nine of her 15 points in the period. Meanwhile, the Firebirds were held scoreless for the final 5:41 of the first half, missing six straight shots after sophomore point guard Cameryn Thomas made a short jumper in the paint. “I think they were just aggressive and we lost our composure a little bit defensively,” FSHS coach Bryan Duncan said. After the second-seeded Junior Blues (17-5) opened the third quarter with points on their first three possessions,

Duncan called a timeout following a layup from Thomas, doing his best to raise the intensity with a fiery speech. Duncan’s timeout paid off initially with five straight points from senior guard Caiti Schlesener, a 5-4 spark plug, who drained a threepointer and scored on a fast-break layup after Thomas grabbed a steal on the perimeter. Schlesener scored all 12 of her points in the second half. But the Firebirds couldn’t stop the Junior Blues from scoring. Washburn Rural scored on eight straight possessions midway through the third quarter — almost exclusively at the free-throw line — for an 11-2 spurt. Senior guard Jordyn Musselman, who lived up to her last name by fighting through Free State’s full-court pressure, made 11 free throws in the second half on her way to a team-high 18 points. Piper and Schlesener drilled threes at the end of the period, both assisted by Walter, but there was too much ground to make up in too little time. Free State never pulled any closer than 12 points in the fourth quarter. “It hurts,” Schlesener said. “But they are a great group of girls.
