School finance plan gets cautious support

By Peter Hancock Twitter: @LJWpqhancock

Topeka — A proposal by one of the Kansas Legislature’s most conservative members to remake the state’s school finance formula drew a surprising mix of reactions Tuesday, with school districts and other education groups offering cautious support.

Two conservative lobbyists came out against the bill, and the leading Democrat in the Kansas Senate expressed strong reservations.

Report: KU lags in domestic partner benefits

By Sara Shepherd Twitter: @saramarieshep

Especially because Kansas University policy prohibits discrimination based on sexual orientation, KU should provide domestic partner benefits to employees, a new report says.

The University Senate

Executive Committee members agreed to prepare a resolution urging KU’s top officials to change university policy on the matter, noting that the issue would then be in the administration’s hands.

According to numbers compiled by a city-hired auditor, the city paid $10,452,604 — or 78 percent — of the shared infrastructure at the sports complex. Bliss Sports II, the private development group led by businessman Thomas Fritzel, paid $2,042,952 — or 15 percent — of the infrastructure costs. The city used a donation by a foundation led by Kansas University basketball coach Bill Self to pay the remaining $1 million — or 7 percent of the project costs.

The city owns a $10.5 million recreation center at the site that houses eight basketball courts, an indoor turf field, walking track, fitness room and other amenities. A group led by Fritzel owns $39 million worth of facilities at the site, including a track and field, softball and soccer stadiums that are leased by KU. The city- and Fritzel-owned facilities share roads, parking lots, landscaping and other pieces of infrastructure.

The total amount the city paid for the shared infrastructure ended up being more than what city officials originally anticipated when it first contemplated the publicprivate partnership with the Fritzel entity and Kansas University Endowment, which owns the bulk of the land at the sports complex.

The city originally negotiated a unique contract with the Fritzel entities and the KU Endowment entity that called for the city to spend no more

City OKs tax break for Eldridge project Lawrence city commissioners approved a tax break for a proposed expansion of The Eldridge Hotel, but the incentive is smaller than once proposed.

Commissioners on a 3-1 vote approved an 85 percent, 15-year tax abatement for the proposed Eldridge expansion. Previously, commissioners had given tentative approval to a 95 percent, 15-year tax abatement.

Commissioner Terry Riordan voted against the proposal because his fellow commissioners said they could not support reducing the term of the tax abatement to 10 years.

Commissioner Bob than $25 million on all Rock Chalk Park expenses — including both the cost of the recreation center and the shared infrastructure. Fritzel and city-hired architects had estimated the recreation center would cost about $18 million to $20 million to build. That would have left the city paying between $5 million to $7 million for the shared infrastructure costs.

But bids for the recreation center came in dramatically lower than city officials expected at $10.5 million. City officials renegotiated the deal to reduce the city’s cap to $22.5 million, and agreed to use up to $2 million in possible donations from Bill Self’s Assists Foundation, bringing the total amount of non-Fritzel money available to the project to $24.5 million.

The city, however, did not renegotiate the part of the deal that allowed Fritzel’s Bliss Sports II to build the shared infra-

structure without going through the city’s standard bidding process.

City officials said they sought that change, but Fritzel and KU Endowment would not consent to it. The lower-than-expected bids on the recreation center left community members concerned that the city wasn’t receiving a good value on the infrastructure project.

City officials sought to reassure the public that the price for the infrastructure was fair by comparing the costs at Rock Chalk Park with

system that gives districts more money for harderto-educate students — Abrams’ bill offers three types of funding in addition to per-pupil funding.

Those additional funding streams would be based on the poverty rate and population sparsity in each district, as determined by the U.S. Census Bureau, as well as a “success” index that would reward schools for graduating students who go on to higher education, the military or good-paying jobs.

It would also continue the existing 20-mill statewide property tax that funds a portion of the education budget, and it would allow local districts to continue raising additional money through local property taxes. But there would be no cap on how much local districts could raise through that tax.

But under certain conditions, if wealthier districts like Burlington and Blue Valley go over a certain amount in their local taxes, they would have to levy additional taxes — what some have called a “luxury tax” — with the proceeds of that going back to the state to help fund equalization aid for less wealthy districts. some other infrastructure projects in the community. But questions about whether the projects were directly comparable dogged that effort. The city hired an independent auditing firm to review the project. The auditors from McDonald & Associates gave the project a glowing report, but then following the report it was discovered that some of the work related to verifying the amount of concrete used at the job site was in error.

On Tuesday, the auditors said that in retrospect, their efforts to measure concrete delivery tickets for the project were flawed and complicated by the fact the city inadvertently failed to provide the audit team with all of the concrete delivery tickets for the project. But the auditors stressed that the shortcomings of the concrete delivery ticket analysis had no impact on their other findings that the

‘Starting point’ “It is an intriguing starting point to discuss what happens next in school funding,” said Mark Tallman, a lobbyist for the Kansas Association of School Boards. “There are obviously some elements that I think very much line up with things our association is interested in. There are a host of unknowns.”

But Dave Trabert, president of the conservative think tank Kansas Policy Institute, testified against the bill, saying that while portions of the bill looked attractive, it does not address the issue of adequacy of school funding, which the Kansas Supreme Court has said is a requirement.

“The role of the Legislature is to provide the funding that is needed to provide the education to meet the outcomes,” Trabert said.

“But if there is research (to support the funding levels in the bill), it has not been made part of the bill.”

Walt Chappell, a former member of the Kansas State Board of Education, also testified against the bill, saying it was “not ready for prime time.”

Senate Minority Leader Anthony Hensley of Topeka said after the hearing that it appeared the bill could result in a large shift in education funding away from the state and onto local property taxes.

And he said the lack of any limit on local property taxes would only benefit wealthier districts.

“If you take the cap off, that is only going to serve to disequalize whatever formula you have and will very likely cause another court challenge,” Hensley said.

“I still have no doubt that you guys got what you paid for,” said Warren Hudson, lead auditor on the project.

City commissioners did little reflection on the project Tuesday, but City Manager David Corliss did provide the commission with a memo on considerations for future projects.

Corliss told commissioners in a memo that he recommends all future city construction projects be bid on. He also said staff members will review the city’s purchasing policy, and bring forward possible changes that would require future city contractors to follow

Corliss also said he recommends that his staff conduct an “internal review of the project to review lessons learned.”

CITY COMMISSION RACE

Candidates sharpen stances on development at forum

By Chad Lawhorn Twitter: @clawhorn_ljw

With two weeks to go before Election Day, Lawrence City Commission candidates sharpened their messages about growth and development at a Tuesday forum with about 140 homebuilders and real estate agents in attendance.

Bob Schumm, an incumbent who is scrambling to hold on to a seat on the commission after finishing sixth in the primary election, offered a

full-throated defense of his support for the Rock Chalk Park project, which has been controversial because portions of it strayed from the city’s open bidding policy.

But Schumm told the crowd at the forum, hosted by the Lawrence Board of Realtors and the Lawrence Home Builders Association, that he thought the project had been a better deal for the city than it has been given credit for. Schumm has said he understands some residents are concerned

CITY IS PLACING NEW RECYCLING BINS on Massachusetts Street, such as the ones pictured here Tuesday. The blue recycling bins sit beside black trash bins on two corners at each intersection downtown.

Topeka — Kansas would stop scheduling a presidential primary once every four years under a bill that advanced Tuesday in the Legislature, as members tackled a crowded agenda.

The Senate gave firstround approval to a bill repealing a law requiring the

state to schedule a presidential primary, and it expected to take a final vote today. The state has canceled each primary since 1992, usually because of the anticipated cost, but lawmakers have kept the law scheduling the elections on the books.

House members advanced a bill directing the state Department of Health and Environment to de-

velop a plan for reducing greenhouse gas emissions from power plants but requiring the Legislature’s energy committees to approve it. It’s a response to a federal rule requiring states to develop stricter emissions standards by 2016.

the bill aimed to gradually reduce the number of protected jobs in government and would allow agencies to force workers into positions without civil service benefits.

“There is nothing voluntary about when you want a promotion or when you want a raise being required to sign away your civil service rights and protections.

That’s not voluntary, that’s coercion,” Carmichael said.

Carmichael also proposed an amendment to the bill that would have reinstated protections that prevented people from being fired or re-

for 2020. The law says that if the secretary of state can’t set the election for a date on which at least five other states are holding contests, the Kansas vote is the first Tuesday in April.

Democratic Sen. Laura Kelly of Topeka then noted the Legislature’s history of canceling primaries.

“We do have this conversation every four years, and I’m just trying to figure out why we keep having this conversation when our decision is always the same,” she said.

The Senate later approved an amendment to the bill to repeal the law scheduling the primary.

The change would leave the Republican and Democratic parties to hold caucuses, covering the costs themselves.

Basement fire causes damage Firefighters extinguished a fire in the basement of a home in the 1000 block of New Jersey Street on Tuesday afternoon.

The fire was reported

just after 3 p.m. and scanner reports indicated the home was evacuated. Two residents stood watch as firefighters investigated the cause.

Smoke was seen escaping the basement windows and flooding the main level of the home for about 20 minutes. No flames were visible from outside the house.

The fire was reported under control by about 3:30 p.m. It was not immediately clear how widespread the fire was or the extent of the damage.

Lawrence-Douglas County Fire Medical Division Chief Eve Tolefree said Tuesday that the extent of the damages and cause of the fire would not be available until today at the earliest.

Firefighters rescued a pet snake from the home.

Melcher said it would make it easier for school boards to fire underperforming teachers and give them the flexibility to reward better teachers.

JOSIE SCHIMKE, CO-OWNER OF EARTH FLOWERS IN LECOMPTON, IS PICTURED WITH AN ARRAY OF SUCCULENTS on Tuesday. Succulents are colorful and easy to take care of, and can brighten up indoor and outdoor spaces in the spring. TOP PHOTO: Sedum, a variety of succulent, is hardy enough to use in landscaping.

Succulents can brighten interiors as well as outside PICTURED IN THIS ARRANGEMENT are a “string of pearls,” a tropical “hen and chick,” left, and senecio.

By Liz Weslander Special to the Journal-World

With an endless array of interesting shapes and colors, and the nearly foolproof care requirements of good sun and well-drained soil, succulents are a popular choice for dressing up windowsills and sunny indoor tables. As spring warms into summer, succulent fans also have the option of using these easy plants outdoors.

“Succulent” is a broad term for plants with thick, fleshy stems and leaves that thrive in arid climates. (Cactus and aloe are two wellknown examples.) Most succulents are not hardy enough to survive cold Midwestern winters, which is why succulent-filled pots that can be moved indoors in cold weather are a solid choice for outdoor decorating.

Josie Schimke, co-owner

of Earth Flowers, a succulent greenhouse in Lecompton, said that with colors ranging from olive green, to red-orange and silvery blues, the process of picking succulents for a potted arrangement is sometimes overwhelming. But the echeveria variety of succulents — which generally take the shape of small rosettes — is a popular choice.

“The world of echeveria is vast; there are so many,” Schimke said. “If you plant a bunch of them in a pot it kind of looks like water lil-

ies floating in a bowl.”

Although succulents should generally be grown in pots or treated as annuals in the Midwest, Schimke said that two varieties of succulents — sedum and sempervivum — are hardy enough to be used as perennial landscaping in Kansas.

Sedum, commonly called stonecrop, comes in lowgrowing and spreading ground-cover varieties. It is drought-tolerant and easy to divide.

One of the most common sedum used in landscaping

is the “Autumn Joy,” a compact plant that is 12 to 24 inches tall with flowers that age from pink to bronze.

“Dragon’s Blood” is a popular spreading evergreen sedum that offers deep-purple leaves and pinkish purple blooms in late summer.

Another favorite spreading sedum, “Blue Spruce,” has silvery blue foliage and small yellow summertime blooms.

Schimke said that sempervivum, also known as “hens and chicks,” are perfect for Midwest landscaping because they require little water and work especially well in rocky areas and on slopes.

“If you have a slope, sempervivum are perfect because they will hold the soil in place and slopes are well drained,” Schimke said.

“Chinks in a rock wall will give them everything they want because the soil is dry and is kept cooler by the

rocks. You can really have a pallet of beauty with the hens and chicks.”

Schimke said there is no reason to shy away from using non-hardy succulents in annual beds. Because both the leaves and the flowers come in interesting hues, succulents are a great way to add color.

Succulents are also easy to propagate, which means that gardeners can take cuttings from non-hardy succulents at the end of the season, plant them in a pots indoors, and then plant them again outside the following spring.

“You just cut off about 2 inches of the plant, take off the bottom leaves, and then leave it out for a day before you replant it so that the root can callous over,” Schimke said. “You have to let it harden for a whole day or it may rot. But other than that, it is astonishingly easy.”

No garden? No problem: Add edibles to your landscape instead

By Jennifer Smith Special to the Journal-World

Raising a few veggies and herbs is a growing trend, although for new gardeners the idea of creating a garden might seem overwhelming.

Space and sunlight are also limiting factors, but there are ways to work around them. They key is to think outside the box of a traditional vegetable garden.

In yards with existing landscaping, growing a few vegetables may only require planting. Just pick a spot that receives at least six to eight hours of direct sunlight and is far enough away from mature trees to avoid root competition. Start small,

CHERRY TOMATO PLANTS can be grown along driveways or walkways instead of in a garden. as the garden always seems bigger in July.

Planting is the easy part. Tuck a tomato plant, a few pepper plants, or an eggplant in front of the shrubs, leaving a few feet

on each side for the plant to grow and still allow access to harvest the fruit.

For tomato plants, choose a determinate variety (listed on the tag) for a more kempt look, or

use a trellis to stake the plant instead of a tomato cage.

Cherry tomatoes are especially pretty when loaded with fruit and make a nice option along a walk or driveway where they are easily picked.

Peppers and eggplants will vary a little in height and plant size by variety, with fruit adding a little color to the landscape as well.

For taller veggies like the tomatoes, peppers and eggplant, add cheery flowers to strategically hide the lower stems of the vegetable plants.

Marigolds, zinnias, and annual salvias are all about the right height and will bloom throughout the season.

Basil, oregano, garlic

chives and other herbs blend right in with perennial flowers. Just avoid planting mint plants directly in the garden as they may take over. Mint is best kept in a container or other enclosed space where its spreading roots can be kept in check.

Oregano often survives the winter, so plant it along a border or somewhere it can remain from year to year.

Swiss chard is an especially pretty green that grows well from spring to frost. There are smooth leaved and curly leaved varieties, different heights and color variations, including plants with red, yellow and orange stems.

Select a variety that works well with other

plantings or plant a rainbow mixture for maximum color variation.

The regular wood or bark mulch used commonly for landscapes is fine around the edible plants if straw and prairie hay seem unattractive.

In the absence of usable landscape beds, try containers. Use large pots if possible to allow for maximum root growth, especially with larger vegetable plants.

All of the aforementioned plants are great for pots, along with lettuces, spinach, kale and even strawberries and blueberries. For tomatoes, cucumbers, melons and beans, look for varieties specifically recommended for containers if possible for best success.

New plants springing up this season

By Jennifer Smith Special to the Journal-World

With hundreds of new varieties of plants released each year, gardeners looking to try something new are faced with the difficult task of discerning which varieties are really different and improved.

The easiest way to avoid the guessing game is to rely on unbiased organizations that test and recommend varieties.

One such organization is All-America Selections (AAS), a nonprofit that performs nationwide field trials of new vegetables and annual flowers.

AAS judges rate plants based on factors such as disease and pest tolerance, color or flavor, yield and overall performance. A new variety must have at least two qualities that make it significantly better than similar varieties on the market to be considered for recognition. In 2014, AAS began identifying regional winners in addition to national winners. Kansas is part of AAS’s Heartland Region.

For 2015, AAS identified 17 national winners and 3 Heartland Region winners. Below are a few of the most notable. For the complete list, including previous years’ winners, see all-americaselections.org.

Flowers Dianthus: Interspecific Jolt Pink F1 Dianthus is an old-time annual that provides great spring color but typically fades in the summer heat. Jolt is reportedly the exception, producing 3/4-inch-diameter, bright

Flaming Flare peppers

Emerald Fire peppers

Dianthus: Interspecific Jolt Pink pink flowers throughout the season. Plants are 10to-24 inches high by 10to-14 inches wide.

Petunias: Tidal Wave Red Velour F1 and Trilogy Red F1 Many petunias have received AAS recognition over the years, but this flower variety just seems to get better. Both varieties offer unique shades of red on 2 1/2-inch diameter blossoms, and they fill a large area quickly. They also rebloom without deadheading from early summer to frost.

Red Velour can mound over itself up to 24 inches

tall, while Trilogy Red stays a little more compact and blooms are less likely to fade with age.

Both varieties should be spaced 24 inches apart in a landscape bed or planted in singles in a container.

Herbs Basil: Dulce Fresca and Persian Basil lovers have two new options, with Dulce Fresca basil as a National AAS Winner and Persian basil as a Heartland Region Winner. What makes these basils bet-

ter than old standard varieties? Both are shorter and stockier than the standard, meaning more leaves for cooking pleasure and a plant that’s less likely to blow over in high winds.

Plants typically grow to 10 to 24 inches tall and about 12 inches wide.

They also hold their shape better than other varieties, even when leaves are picked regularly, making them a nice choice for containers.

Persian basil has an added appeal in Kansas because it flowers later than other basils. Because flowering changes the flavor of basil leaves, later flowering means bettertasting basil instead of

bitter-tasting basil. When flowers do set, they can still be pinched from the plant like other varieties.

Vegetables Peppers: Emerald Fire F1, Flaming Flare F1, Pretty ‘N Sweet F1, Hot Sunset F1, Sweet Sunset F1 Emerald Fire F1 is the only jalapeno on the list this year. It is resistant to bacterial wilt and produces an abundance of extra large, easy-to-stuff peppers. The average scoville rating on fresh Emerald Fire fruit is around 2,500 heat units, putting it in the same range as most other jalapenos and Anaheims.

Flaming Flare F1 is a

Fresno-type pepper that performed well in trials across the U.S. The plant produces jalapenoshaped peppers that are bright red and up to 3 3/4 inches long by 1 inch wide.

Flaming Flare produces fruit more abundantly than most Fresno types and fruit is reported to be sweeter, although the heat of the pepper will increase with the heat of the summer. Fresnotype peppers are ideal for making chili sauces.

Pretty ‘N Sweet F1 produces sweet, conical peppers in a variety of colors.

Fruit are about 1 to 1 1/2 inches long, making them a great addition to salads.

The plant is also being touted for its ornamental qualities, with the fruit making it a colorful addition to containers and edible landscapes.

Hot Sunset F1 and Sweet Sunset F1 are both Heartland Regional winners and are banana/ wax type peppers. Their names reflect their flavors, and both varieties are recommended because of their sturdy growth habits and fruitfulness.

Editor’s note: “F1” after a variety name indicates that the plant is a hybrid, made from crossing two specific parents.

Seeds saved from a hybrid variety often resemble a grandparent more than a parent, so they may be less desirable.

Hybridization happens in the wild also, but plant breeders often use it to pass along disease resistance, heat tolerance, or other desirable traits.

Hybridization is different from the process of creating genetically modified varieties, also known as GMOs.

Consider open shelving for kitchens

By Liz Weslander Special to the Journal-World

While some prefer to keep the contents of their kitchen tucked safely behind the privacy of cabinet doors, the option of replacing traditional kitchen cabinets with open shelves that display dishes and pantry items has caught on with many.

Open shelving comes with its challenges, but those who embrace it say they see it as a way to open up the space, an excuse to pare down on kitchen supplies and an opportunity to create a carefully curated display.

Josh Reese, of Lawrence, has replaced the kitchen cabinets over his sink and dishwasher with a set of three open, floating shelves.

Reese, who lives with his wife and two young children, created the shelves using Ikea wall shelving brackets and three, 10-foot pieces of 3/4-inch cabinet-grade poplar from a home improvement store — a

project he estimated cost well under $200.

Reese said that removing the cabinets has made the kitchen seem lighter, and that the family found they liked being able to see and easily locate the items on the shelves.

The lowest of the three floating shelves contains many of the family’s most commonly used dishes, creating what Reese calls an efficient dishwashing “work triangle.”

Reese also noted that ensuring that the shelving brackets were installed in wall studs and paying attention to the amount of weight they put on the shelves is key.

“The fear of waking up in the middle of the night to the sound all of your dishes crashing to the ground is very real,” he said.

For Lawrence resident Courtney Crouch, the decision to go with open shelving in her kitchen came when she removed her cabinet doors with the intention of painting them a new color. Once the doors were off, she

realized that she liked the open look.

“It’s definitely something you have to wrap your brain around,” Crouch said. “It requires reorganizing because you can only put aesthetically pleasing things on them.”

Rather than filling her open shelves with her everyday kitchen items, Crouch has curated a collection of ceramic dishware, vintage items and mason jars. Crouch said that having open shelving inspires her to buy more food in bulk so that she can put it in jars that look nice on display.

Reese and Crouch agree that the biggest challenge with open shelving is keeping them clean.

“This is the kitchen, which means cooking, and cooking is basically atomizing grease,” Reese said. “You’ll take something down that you haven’t touched in a month or two, and there will be a layer of dust on it. It’s just part of it. It forces you to clean more often.”

A trim in spring or summer can prevent a fall in winter.

Four finalists for Lawrenceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s director of arts and culture position will meet the public during a reception April 1, Lawrence city officials announced Tuesday.

The directorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s duties will include leading the development of a citywide cultural plan; working with various grants, including one for the Ninth Street Corridor Project; administering the programs of the Lawrence Cultural Arts Commission; and working to enliven Lawrenceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s creative sector.

The four finalists are: l Porter Arneill, director and public art administrator for the Kansas City Municipal Art Commission. He has worked as the director of public art and education for the

Students nominated for Udall Scholarship Four Kansas University juniors have been nominated for 2015 Udall Foundation Scholarships.

The namesake of Morris and Stewart Udall, the Udall Scholarship recognizes studentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; leadership, public service and commitment to issues related to American Indian nations or the environment, according to a KU news release.

The KU nominees are: l Frederick Gipp, of Lawrence, majoring in strategic communications. l Ashlie Koehn, of Burns, triple-majoring in economics, environmental

studies and global and international studies. l Gabrielle Murnan, of Pittsburg, double-majoring in environmental studies and political science. l Jennifer Stern, of Lawrence, majoring in ecology and evolutionary biology.

Each year the Udall Foundation awards around 50 scholarships of up to $5,000 and 50 honorable mentions to college students across the country, the release said.

Scholarship winners and honorable mentions are expected to be announced in April.

retention as driving issues behind the development of their policies.â&#x20AC;?

University Senate President Jonathan Mayhew, professor in the department of Spanish and Portuguese, said his own department has lost employees because of the stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s generally unwelcoming climate toward LGBT persons. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not just some abstract thing that would be nice to have,â&#x20AC;? Mayhew said of adding domestic partner benefits. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It actually has real-life effects on the hiring.â&#x20AC;?

sexual orientation, marital status and other categories.

That can be construed to support the provision of domestic partner benefits, though KU â&#x20AC;&#x153;continues to discriminate against KU faculty and employees with domestic partners,â&#x20AC;? the report states. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Further, Kansas state statutes and Board of Regentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; policy have not changed in this regard over time and thus set the tone for discriminatory practice.â&#x20AC;?

Of KUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 10 peer institutions in the universityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Bold Aspirations strategic plan, nine offer a range of domestic partner benefits â&#x20AC;&#x201D; although in some cases that term is not used, according to the report. Of those nine, eight offer medical insurance coverage. Other benefits include life insurance, family leave and tuition benefits.

The other peer school that does not offer domestic partner benefits is the University of Virginia, according to the report.

The only category in which KU offers benefits is use of recreational facilities, Severson said.

Kansas Board of Regents policy does allow for bereavement leave in the case of the death of a close family member or other qualified adult, defined as someone with a committed personal relationship living in the employeeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s household.

Severson said domestic partner benefits should apply to both same-sex and heterosexual couples who remain committed but unmarried, so such a change would be needed even if the U.S. Supreme Court rules in support of same-sex marriage. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a good time to make a statement about the fact that we value people and their partners, whoever they happen to be,â&#x20AC;? she said.

The university has cited state and federal laws, as well as challenging tax and regulatory implications to providing domestic partner benefits, as roadblocks, according to the report.

Another hurdle is a lack of data, the report says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Obviously, this is critical information that goes to the determination of the potential impact of offering domestic partner benefits,â&#x20AC;? the report says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Anecdotally, many of our peer institutions identify recruitment and

Cruz presidential bid faces obstacles

EDITORIALS

Bad sign As many observers predicted, higher education funding is increasingly in jeopardy as Kansas legislators work to bring the state budget in line with its revenues.

I

t appears we spoke too soon when we expressed sympathy in a recent editorial over cuts a committee in the Kansas Legislature made to Kansas State University’s budget.

When the Senate Ways and Means Committee voted to redistribute funding recommended by the Kansas Board of Regents, we noted that while the $4.2 million cut from K-State would go to other state universities, at least the $9.4 million trimmed from the budget for Kansas University’s main campus in Lawrence would go to the KU School of Medicine in Wichita and to scholarships for medical students.

But, as noted above, we spoke too soon.

Shifting that KU money to the medical school was just an intermediate step.

On Monday, the Ways and Means Committee went back to work on the bill and decided to simply eliminate the $9.4 million from KU’s budget entirely.

Neither the Lawrence campus nor the medical school will get that money, according to the bill the committee approved Monday. The change was made during a last-minute meeting reportedly in an effort to gain additional support for the budget among conservative members of the Kansas House.

The committee’s plan to ignore Board of Regents’ recommendations and capriciously transfer money from one state university campus to another had drawn considerable fire as a poor policy precedent. The Senate committee now has responded to that criticism by simply eliminating the KU funding.

There didn’t seem to be any particular justification for the amount that was cut. Somehow the committee had previously come up with $9.4 million as the amount needed to expand the medical school program in Wichita, so, since we no longer care about that goal, why not just cut $9.4 million?

House and Senate budget negotiations have just begun. It’s possible that the KU cut approved by the Senate committee on Monday will be reversed, but given legislators’ early lack of support for KU funding, it’s hard to be optimistic.

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for March 25, 1915: “Fire which originated from an unknown cause last night at years 12:20 o’clock destroyed part of ago the furnishings of the Grand moIN 1915 tion picture theater. The fire had a good start before the alarm was turned in and had spread over the entire front of the theater by the time the fire department reached the scene. The door at the east end of the theater was opened first and immediately the fire was driven the full length of the theater scorching the seats. … The damage was estimated at about $1,100.”

“The annual meeting of the stockholders of the Lake View association will be held in the club house on Saturday afternoon. The election of officers for the coming year and the general business of the organization will be taken up. … Lake View has for the past few years been one of the favorite resorts for the people of Lawrence who wanted to go out of town to rest a day from business and enjoy nature.”

In his first year as a senator, he cast one of three votes against longtime Sen. John Kerry as secretary of state, then incited like-thinking conservative Republicans in the House to shut down the federal government for 16 days in a futile bid to stop President Barack Obama’s landmark health care act.

Now, just 44, he’s beaten the rest of the large GOP field into the media spotlight as the first formal entrant in the party’s 2016 presidential race. But a number of factors

“

In the past halfcentury, the only time Republicans nominated their most conservative candidate was Goldwater in 1964, and he carried six states.”

make it unlikely he’ll finish first when Republicans pick their nominee.

By pledging to lead a grassroots army of “millions of courageous conservatives rising up to reignite the promise of America” and choosing the late Jerry Falwell’s Liberty University as his kickoff site, Sen. Ted Cruz, of Texas, underscored his intention of relying heavily on the religious conservatives who constitute a majority of Republican voters in both the leadoff Iowa caucuses and the subsequent South Carolina primary.

But the Texas senator faces a battle for those votes, and history indicates that even success there does not guarantee victory when the primary trail hits larger, more diverse states. Here are some of the handicaps the freshman Texas senator must overcome to win the

Republican nomination: l Too far right? Though his views don’t differ notably from most rivals, he sought in his announcement speech to portray himself as the purest conservative in the field, promising to repeal Obamacare, abolish the IRS, pass a flat tax and enable college graduates to choose from “four, five, six job offers.”

While appealing to many Republicans, it’s a dubious path for a general election where even GOP analysts say the party must broaden its appeal. l Strong competition. In Iowa alone, Cruz has strong competition for support from the religious conservatives who dominated recent caucuses. Rivals could include Gov. Scott Walker from neighboring Wisconsin, who scored strongly at a recent conservative forum; Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky, whose father’s past campaigns give him a solid Iowa base; former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee, who won the 2008 caucuses; former Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum, who won the 2012 caucuses; and several others. Recent polls showed Walker as the early favorite, with Cruz far behind. l Experience. For six years, the GOP has assailed Obama’s lack of electoral

experience. But Cruz, who won his first election in 2012, has less. Rivals can tout greater achievements.

Besides, senators have generally fared poorly in Republican contests; the last three to be nominated, Barry Goldwater in 1964, Bob Dole in 1996 and John McCain in 2008, lost decisively. l Burned bridges. Running for president involves building coalitions, something Cruz has shown little interest in doing. His challenges to the congressional GOP leadership have aroused substantial antagonism, and he made clear Monday that his projected path to victory involves mobilizing increased conservative turnout, not expanding the GOP base. l Visage. Cruz sometimes comes across as angry, having defined himself so far by his fervent opposition to Obamacare and his role in shutting the government. While Republicans generally share his views, voters generally like positive candidates who display optimism about the future. Cruz sought to do that Monday to a very friendly audience, though the conservative nirvana he portrayed seemed optimistic even by political standards. l Texas base. He faces spirited competition for

Presidential candidates must re-examine U.S. role There was a time after the collapse of the Soviet Union when it became common to speak of the United States as the only “superpower” in the world.

At that point the American economy was clearly the strongest in the world and it was believed that our military forces could handle any threats to the security of the homeland.

I would suggest that whether this was true at the time is irrelevant. What is relevant is that we, as a nation, are no longer able to dominate the rest of the world economically, politically or militarily and that the new realities of the post-9/11, post-Great Recession era are very different.

Why is this something to think about now? The answer is simple: with the declaration by Sen. Ted Cruz that he will run for president in 2016, the presidential election season has now begun. I believe strongly that a major focus of the upcoming presidential election must be on the new realities of the world today.

For much of the past decade, Americans have focused on the dangers of global terrorism. Certainly, these have not abated. The growing threat from the so-called Islamic State must take a prominent position in any discussion of American foreign policy. At the same time, the situation in the Middle East is dangerous as the negotiations with Iran and the worsening relations with Israel make clear. Whether we like it or not, Iran is rapidly becoming a major political and military force in its region and we cannot stop its rise.

In Europe, a newly resurgent Russia willing to use military force to achieve its political ends poses a regional threat as serious, if not more serious, than that which existed before the Soviet Union’s collapse. In the Far East, China has clearly achieved superpower status both economically and militarily, and its need for natural resources, including oil in the South China Sea, poses a

both Texas money and support. And it’s not necessarily an electoral positive to come from so solidly a Republican state. The last two successful Texas candidates, the two George Bushes, benefited from their New England roots. Many Republicans may question his appeal in the crucial electoral battlegrounds of the Industrial Belt, where the key to GOP success is attracting independents. After losing four of the last six elections, GOP voters may want a candidate they feel can win. l History. In the past halfcentury, the only time Republicans nominated their most conservative candidate was Goldwater in 1964, and he carried six states. The GOP has gotten far more conservative since then, as have its leaders, but the country has become more diverse.

Cruz is smart and self-confident, delivering Monday’s remarks with almost evangelical fervor, using neither podium nor script. A champion college debater, he could prove more adept than lessarticulate rivals when televised campaign debates begin. Still, the odds on the quest he began Monday are long.

PUBLIC FORUM

Candidate funds To the editor: I have heard the adage “Follow the money” for a long time.

The source of campaign money — donations — is supposed to tell us something about the candidates. I thought I would just follow the money a bit and see what it would reveal. The Douglas County clerk manages the Lawrence City Commission elections and has posted online the reports of receipts and expenditures as of Feb. 26.

I eliminated donations from elsewhere that obviously were from family members, but it is quite possible that some other donations were from relatives. There was a striking difference in the source of the candidate contributions. Here is what was reported: l Stan Rasmussen — $19,790 in total receipts, $7,990 (40 percent) from outside Lawrence l Leslie Soden — $4,794 total, none from outside Lawrence. l Bob Schumm — $14,155 total, $100 (1 percent) from outside Lawrence l Stuart Boley — $6,060 total, $300 (5 percent) from outside Lawrence l Matthew Herbert — $6,825 total, $515 (8 percent) from outside Lawrence l Terry Riordan — $8,665 total, $300 (3 percent) from outside Lawrence So, we have followed the money and found something of interest, but what does it mean? Should we be concerned that parties outside Lawrence are so interested in one of our candidates? Is this a scheme by outside forces to gain control of our fair city? Does the candidate have qualities such that people from all over are supportive? I don’t know. Perhaps some more astute readers can enlighten me.

Joe Douglas, Lawrence

threat to the current status quo. Can the United States successfully challenge Iran, Russia and China for regional dominance? Do we want to do so?

It seems to me that the next president will have to make some very difficult policy decisions about American power in the world. Are we willing to dedicate the economic resources necessary to project American power globally in the face of a rising Iran, China, and Russia? Do we have the political will to commit military forces in multiple regions against regional powers while also combatting global terrorism?

Americans are tired over war. Our military has been engaged in combat around the globe for more than a decade without pause. Our economy is still recovering from the Great Recession of 2008.

rocketed in the last five years, driven in part by nonceliac sufferers who believe they are intolerant to gluten and look for such products as a healthier alternative.

Sales of gluten-free snacks, crackers, pasta, bread and other products reached $973 million in the U.S. in 2014, up from $810 million the previous year, according to a January report by the consumer research firm Packaged Facts, which analyzed the sales of hundreds of explicitly labeled and marketed gluten-free products and brands at supermarkets, drugstores, and mass merchandisers.

Understanding the causes of celiac disease and gluten intolerance is the goal of a lot of research around the world; some focuses on human diagnosis and treatment, and others have identified about 20 of the protein fragments in wheat that causes celiac reactions.

But no one has identified all of them, or bred a variety of wheat that is safe for celiac sufferers to eat.

“We are hoping to be one of the first to establish this comprehensive screening of reactive proteins in wheat,” Miller said.

The research began in July at the Wheat Innovation Center in Manhattan, and remains in its early stages, with researchers extracting proteins from seeds of various varieties of wheat. A later step will be combining the proteins with antibodies produced by the human

immune system to test for reactions.

He also plans to examine the wild relatives of wheat as well as modern varieties, and will tap into a Kansas wheat variety repository that dates back to the 1900s in hopes of finding a variety — perhaps one that fell out of favor among commercial farmers — that might already be low in reactivity for celiac sufferers.

Researchers hope to use that variety to develop a gluten-free wheat using traditional breeding methods.

An expert on celiac disease who reviewed Miller’s plan online worries that it may prove “too simplistic,” and fail to identify all the toxic sequences that can trigger a celiac reaction.

Armin Alaedini, assistant professor of medical sciences at Columbia University and a researcher at the New York-based school’s Celiac Disease Center, said the project may end up with a less toxic wheat product that isn’t completely safe for all celiac disease patients.

“After all this effort, this product that is coming out ... is unlikely to be superior in terms of nutritional value or baking properties and taste to the gluten-free products that are already on the market,” Alaedini said.

The medical advisory board for the Celiac Disease Foundation, a nonprofit based in Woodland Hills, California, could not reach a consensus on the viability of Miller’s research.

genetic research to figure out exactly why some people struggle to digest wheat.

The hard science is aimed at developing new varieties of wheat at a time when the glutenfree industry is worth nearly a billion dollars a year in the U.S. alone.

The Kansas Wheat Commission is spending $200,000 for the first two years of the project, which is meant to identify everything in wheat’s DNA sequences that can trigger a reaction in people suffering from celiac disease, an autoimmune disorder in which eating even tiny amounts of gluten — comprised of numerous, complex proteins that gives dough its elasticity and some flavor to baked goods — can damage the small intestine.

The only known treatment for celiac disease is a gluten-free diet free of any foods that contain wheat, rye, and barley.

“If you know you are producing a crop that is not tolerated well by people, then it’s the right thing to do,” said the project’s lead researcher, Chris Miller, senior director of research for Engrain, a Kansas company that makes products to enhance the nutrition and appearance of products made by the milling and cereal industry.

The president met Ghani and other officials from Afghanistan’s new “unity government” as part of an effort to improve U.S.-Afghan relations that deteriorated under predecessor Hamid Karzai.

In announcing the delay, Obama repeatedly cited the new sense of cooperation with Afghanistan, in apparent contrast to relations with the previous president.

Obama stressed that the end of the withdrawal timeline has not changed: Most U.S. troops are to

“The specific trajectory of the 2016 drawdown will be established later this year to enable our final consolidation to a Kabul-based embassy presence by the end of 2016,” Obama said.

Distress call not sent before plane crash kills 150

DENIS BOIS, AFP/GETTY IMAGES

Meritxel Mir and John Bacon USA TODAY

SAINT- LOUIS , FRANCE The pilots of a doomed German jetliner sent no distress call as the Airbus A320 went into a sharp, eightminute descent Tuesday before crashing into the rugged French Alps, killing all 150 people aboard and leaving a scene of utter destruction.

“The site is a picture of horror,” German Foreign Minister FrankWalter Steinmeier said after viewing the crash from the air.

Everyone on the Germanwings

Airbus A320 was presumed dead, French officials said. The victims include two infants, two opera singers and 16 German high school students and their teachers returning from an exchange trip to Spain.

The mystery over the cause was deepened by the lack of a distress call and the loss of radio contact with air traffic control as it rapidly descended from a cruising altitude of 38,000 feet, France’s aviation authority said.

One of the plane’s two black box recorders was recovered.

Debris from the Airbus A320 sits at the crash site in the French Alps.

v STORY CONTINUES ON 3B

About once every four days, part of the nation’s power grid — a system whose failure could leave millions in the dark — is struck by a cyber- or physical attack, a USA TODAY analysis of federal energy records finds.

Although the repeated breaches have never resulted in the type of cascading outage that swept across the Northeast in 2003, they have sharpened concerns about vulnerabilities in the electric system. A widespread outage lasting even a few days could disable devices from ATMs to cellphones to traffic lights and threaten lives if heating, air conditioning or health systems exhaust backup power.

Some experts and officials fear the rash of smaller-scale incidents may point to broad security problems, raising questions about what can be done to safeguard the grid from an attack that could leave millions without power for days or weeks.

“One is too many, so that’s why we have to pay attention,” said Federal Energy Regulatory Commission Chairman Cheryl LaFleur. “The threats continue to evolve, and we have to continue to evolve as well.”

Obama says Netanyahu rift ‘substantive,’ not personal Leaders are far apart on resolving conflicts Gregory Korte @gregorykorte USA TODAY

President Obama said Tuesday his differences with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu are not a matter of personality conflicts, but a “very clear, substantive” difference of opinion about how to resolve the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

“I have a very businesslike relationship with the prime minisWASHINGTON

He insisted there would be full transparency on any deal with Iran: “People are going to be able to lift up the hood and see what’s in there.”

The spying relevations were meant to stir up Democrats against Netanyahu, said Aaron David Miller, a former Middle East peace negotiator for Democratic and Republican admini-

strations. “What’s new is what’s political,” Miller said. “This is an effort to show Congress, particularly the Democrats, that Netanyahu has done wrong.”

Israel denied it spied on its most important ally. “There is no way,” Israeli Defense Minister Moshe Ya’alon said, according to The Jerusalem Post.

Most concerning to Obama was Netanyahu’s election-eve declaration that a two-state solution — an independent Palestinian country side-by-side with Israel — would not happen as long as he’s prime minister.

SPECIAL REPORT BLACKOUT

Power system security inconsistent v CONTINUED FROM 1B

sands of pages of government records, federal energy data and a survey of more than 50 electric utilities, finds: uMore than once a week, the physical and computerized security mechanisms intended to protect Americans from widespread power outages are affected by attacks, and less severe cyberattacks happen more often. uTransformers and other critical equipment often sit in plain view, protected by chainlink fencing and a few cameras.

Suspects have never been identified in connection with many of the 300-plus attacks since 2011. uAn organization funded by the industry writes and enforces its own security guidelines, and decreased the number of penalties it issued by 30% from 2013 to 2014, leading to questions about oversight.

Jon Wellinghoff, former chairman of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, said the grid is “too susceptible to a cascading outage” because of its reliance on a small number of critical substations and other equipment.

Because the grid operates as an interdependent network, failure of one element requires energy to be drawn from other areas. If multiple parts fail at once, there is potential for a cascading effect

that could leave millions in the dark.

“You have a very vulnerable system that will continue to be vulnerable until we figure out a way to break it out into more distributed systems,” he said.

‘A GAME CHANGER’

Some of the worst fears of those in charge of the grid’s security came true shortly before 1 a.m. on April 16, 2013, when unknown attackers unleashed a coordinated attack on a Pacific Gas & Electric’s Metcalf substation in Northern California.

They severed six underground fiber-optic lines before firing more than 100 rounds of ammunition at transformers, causing more than $15 million in damage.

The intentional sabotage, probably involving multiple gunmen, was unlike any prior attack on the grid in scale or sophistication.

Yet officers did not begin investigating until hours later. Security footage is grainy. The attackers were never caught. Power was not lost, but the nature of the attack got attention across the industry.

“Shooting at substations, unfortunately, is not uncommon,” Sue Kelly, president of the American Public Power Association, said at a Senate hearing in 2014.

“But this incident demonstrated a level of sophistication not previously seen in our sector.”

At a California Public Utilities Commission review of the incident, PG&E senior director Ken Wells called it “a game changer.”

“This event caused us and the entire industry to take a new and closer look at our critical facilities and what we can do to protect them,” Wells said.

After the attack, FERC directed the industry to write new physical security rules. The rules, finalized in November, require utilities to identify and secure critical but vulnerable infrastructure. The new policy drew concern because it does not give FERC authority to independently choose which facilities are critical.

Wellinghoff said that “could be a loophole that could miss some aspects of the utility infrastructure that are critical.”

After Metcalf, PG&E said it would invest $100 million over three years on security around vital facilities. Yet records from hundreds of attacks in recent years show similar weaknesses still exist at thousands of electric facilities across the country.

‘SO BADLY BROKEN’

From 2011 to 2014, electric utilities reported 362 physical and cyberattacks that caused outages or other power disturbances to the U.S. Department of Energy. Of

WHAT TO DO WHEN POWER IS LOST After the power goes out, many ATMs, gas pumps, elevators, traffic signals and street lights will immediately stop working. One by one, electronic utilities that use backup power will gradually shut down over the next few hours.

Immediately Power outage hack: Food in a freezer that is full at the outset of an outage will last twice as long as food in a half-full freezer. If your household’s freezer has extra room, fill containers with water — leaving about 1 inch of space at the top to allow for expansion — and place them in the freezer.

12 hours The average smartphone will begin to lose power, and there is no easy way to recharge it. Cellphone towers, which are required to have eight hours of backup power, will begin to shut down. It will become difficult to find ways to access the Internet.

Power outage hack: Keep a hand-crank radio in your home and/or vehicle to receive emergency alerts after other communication systems have failed. Families should develop emergency communication plans, potentially identifying an out-of-state friend or relative to contact to notify others they are safe.

24 hours After a full day without electricity, food in a freezer that was half-full at the start of the outage has gone bad and must be thrown away.

Grocery stores that were running on backup power supplies may begin to lose power. Perishable food will start to become scarce in the stores that are still open.

Power outage hack: It is recommended that households keep at least 1 gallon of water per person per day on hand, and at least a three-day supply of non-perishable food.

48 hours After two days without power, food in a freezer that was full at the start of the outage has gone bad and must be thrown away. Credit card scanners are non-functional as people stock up on supplies, so communities shift to cash-based economies. Cash is in short supply because of the closed banks and lack of functional ATMs. Security may become an issue as community members struggle to obtain available resources.

Power outage hack: Keep cash or traveler’s checks on hand in your household to be prepared for a long-term outage.

Three days Urban mass transit systems, especially those depending upon electrified railways, come to a halt. Large cities begin to depend on air and water for transportation of goods and people. It becomes impractical for many to commute to and from work.

Schools remain closed. Regional economies cease production.

Power outage hack: Extreme weather can become dangerous in a blackout. If it is hot, move to the lowest level of your home or find an emergency shelter in your community that is being cooled. If it is cold, wear extra layers and find a location that is heated. Never burn charcoal or use an oven as a source of indoor heat.

Four days Hospitals, which are required to have a 96-hour supply of backup fuel oil, may begin to lose power in some areas. Health care workers make critical choices about where to move patients whose treatments depend on electronic equipment.

Supplies of commercially available fuel become scarce because of the use of backup generators.

Power outage hack: Keeping your vehicle’s gas tank at least half-full at all times will ensure you have fuel for emergency transportation in the event of a blackout, when gas pumps will probably not be functional.

those, 14 were cyberattacks. The rest were physical in nature.

Among the incidents: uIn 2011, an intruder gained access to a critical hydroelectric converter station in Vermont by smashing a lock on a door. uIn 2013, a gunman fired multiple shots at a gas turbine power plant along the Missouri-Kansas border. uAlso in 2013, four bullets fired from a highway struck a power substation outside Colorado Springs.

No suspects were apprehended in those three incidents. Federal data show such attacks are not rare.

Often, such incidents are shrugged off by the police.

In March 2013, security officers at the Jacksonville Electric Authority saw a man climbing a fence surrounding St. Johns River Power Park, which produces energy for 250,000 northern Florida homes.

The man fled when approached, Jacksonville Electric Authority spokeswoman Gerri Boyce said, and was later observed trying to enter a second facility. He was never caught. Nobody filed a police report, according to the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office.

Records show even small, rural utilities have been targeted.

In 2011, after a cyberattack struck the Pedernales Electric Cooperative — a non-profit utility that serves about 200,000 customers in an agrarian region of Texas — CEO R.B. Sloan shared his surprise with the utility’s board of directors.

“You would think if they really wanted to have an impact, they would go for something (else),” he said in a public meeting. Sloan said at the time that the utility filed reports with the Department of Energy and FBI, but had concerns about how they handled it. “It’s obvious to us that some of the regulatory bodies are not well-equipped to accept these and follow up.”

The DOE received 14 reports of cyberattacks from utilities over the past four years. The branch of the Department of Homeland Security that monitors cyberthreats received reports of 151 “cyber incidents” related to the energy industry in 2013 — up from 111 in 2012 and 31 in 2011. It is uncertain whether the increase is due to more incidents or increased reporting.

Scott Aaronson, senior director of national security for Edison Electric Institute, a group representing electric utilities, said it’s difficult to draw trends from figures reported by utilities because of loose definitions of what constitutes a cyber incident.

“Whether it’s 13, dozens, thousands — it’s been more art than science to identify what an attack is,” he said. “There are probes that happen all the time. Adversaries are essentially looking for weaknesses in a network. I’ve heard people say millions (of attacks occur) a day.”

Aaronson noted that there has never been a successful attempt to cause a power outage through a cyberattack in the USA. The interconnected grid and its reliance on communication protocols predating modern cybersecurity problems concern security experts, too. A simulated cyberattack by the Department of Energy Idaho National Laborato-

ry in 2007 exploited a vulnerability by altering the timing of a diesel generator’s circuit breakers, causing thick smoke to rise from the plant.

To prevent attacks, some critical infrastructure is completely disconnected from the Internet to insulate it from adversaries.

The industry employs stronger cyberdefense mechanisms than, for instance, the retail industry, which recently has suffered a string of high-profile intrusions.

For some industry watchers, physical threats to the grid loom larger. But to experts and officials, each reported attack is worrisome.

Former energy security regulator Josh Axelrod, speaking in 2013 at a security conference in Louisville, described how a mass outage could be triggered by a physical attack targeting key pieces of equipment.

“If you know where to disable certain transformers, you can cause enough frequency and voltage fluctuation in order to disable the grid and cause cascading outages,” said Axelrod, who heads the power and utilities information security practice at Ernst & Young. “You can pick up a hunting rifle at your local sporting goods store … and go do what you need to do.”

Thomas Popik, president of the Foundation for Resilient Societies, a Nashua, N.H., advocacy group, argued the industry is given too much leeway. “The system is so badly broken,” Popik said.

“For physical protection, the standards are very weak.”

PENALTIES DECREASING

Under the Energy Policy Act of 2005, an industry-funded nonprofit group, the North American Electrical Reliability Corp., writes standards, which must be approved by FERC, the federal agency that regulates the grid.

In 2012, the Congressional Research Service called the regulatory arrangement unusual and said it “may potentially be a conflict of interest.”

Federal regulators look to NERC for enforcement of the rules. But the number of actions taken by NERC against utilities for failing to follow infrastructure protection guidelines decreased 30% from 1,230 in 2013 to 860 in 2014. NERC issued more than $5 million in penalties for such incidents in 2013 and less than $4 million last year.

NERC President and CEO Gerry Cauley said decreasing fines point to increased compliance, not decreasing enforcement: “Longer term, you expect people to get the message and make the adjustments to keep improving.

“It’s not because we’re being nicer.”

NATION/WORLD AIRLINER CRASH

German town reeling from deaths of students Locals had all been ‘full of hope’ about plane’s fate

Special for USA TODAY

A small German town is reeling over the devastating plane crash in the French Alps that left 16 of its students and at least two teachers dead Tuesday.

Bodo Klimpel, the mayor of Haltern am See located about 50 miles northeast of the jet’s destination of Düsseldorf, looked redeyed and appeared shaken at a news conference Tuesday.

“I would like to assure you that this the blackest day our community has ever had. We are in shock and this the worst thing that could have happened to us,” he said.

Klimpel said the school will open Wednesday to help the students, with support from teachers and administrators.

Residents had all been “full of hope” until they got official confirmation that the students were on the plane, Klimpel said. The students and teachers from Joseph-König Gymnasium had been returning from a nine-day language exchange with a high school in Llinars del Valles near Barcelona, the Spanish newspaper La Vanguardia reported.

After the first news of a crash came, many parents traveled to the Düsseldorf Airport in hopes that the children had arrived safely after all.

Those parents were being tended to by the crisis managers at the airport.

Germanwings, a low-cost subsidiary of Lufthansa, has never had a plane crash. It confirmed 67 passengers held German passports.

Flags at government buildings in Düsseldorf were flying at halfstaff. Christopf Metzelder, a professional soccer player from the area, said on Facebook he has “deepest sympathy and sadness.”

held pink flowers while waiting for her sisters, who were on another plane from Mallorca, Spain.

“I have often flown the Barcelona-Düsseldorf route with Germanwings myself,” she told Handelsblatt newspaper. “I’m lost for words. Terrible.”

Süleyman Deran searched the departure area for his best friend whose sister was on board the crashed plane.

“We’ve known each other since we were kids. This is incredibly sad,” he said.

Airline, plane had strong safety records Kim Hjelmgaard @khjelmgaard USA TODAY

Germanwings, the operator of the plane that crashed Tuesday in a remote location of the French Alps, is a well-known, low-cost carrier in Europe based out of the German city of Cologne.

The airline is owned by major international carrier Lufthansa.

It was not clear what caused Tuesday’s crash that left 150 people on board dead.

“This is a dark day for Lufthansa,” Carsten Spohr, Lufthansa’s

chief executive, tweeted.

Established in 2002, Germanwings employs about 2,000 people and carried more than 16 million passengers in 2013. It is known regionally for transporting German passengers to vacation spots along Europe’s southern Mediterranean coast.

Airline industry analysts said it had a good safety record. The airline has not been involved in any previous known accidents, according to FlightSafe.

The A320 family has a good safety record: 0.14 fatal accidents per million takeoffs, according to a Boeing safety analysis from the

IN BRIEF CLANCY FACES MORE FIRE FOR HANDLING OF SECRET SERVICE

Secret Service Director Joseph Clancy told a House panel Tuesday that he never asked his senior staff whether they withheld information about a breach of an active bomb investigation at the White House complex that he wasn’t told about for five days.

Instead, Clancy told outraged members of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, he referred the March 4 incident to the Department of Homeland Security inspector general to review because he didn’t want to appear to be pressuring anyone who might be a subject of an inquiry.

That prompted more questions from lawmakers examining the director’s handling of the breach, in which two senior agents drove through the cordoned perimeter of the investigative scene, near a suspicious package. The inspector general is reviewing whether the agents in the car were impaired.

Rep. Stephen Lynch, D-Mass., characterized the director’s ac-

hawks and deficit hawks, GOP leaders will let lawmakers vote on more than one plan. The one with the most votes will win.

“I think that’s a great way to do it,” House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, said of the rarely used legislative tactic.

Republicans will vote on the budget crafted by Budget Chairman Tom Price, R-Ga., that was approved by his committee as well as a mirror budget that includes another $2 billion in military spending for a war account sought by defense hawks.

HOUSE WILL VOTE ON BUDGET OPTIONS TODAY

House Republicans will use an unusual approach to ensure their annual budget includes more money for the Pentagon when it comes to a vote today.

In an effort to appease defense

Leaders of the House Intelligence Committee unveiled a bipartisan bill that would make it easier for private companies to share cyberthreat information with the government to thwart hackers. The bill contains stronger privacy protections than previous legislation, said Chairman Devin Nunes, R-Calif., and Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., who have scheduled a committee vote for Thursday.

— Erin Kelly

Airline CEO Thomas Winkelmann said the descent lasted about eight minutes and air-traffic controllers lost contact with the jet at about 6,000 feet. He added the pilot had more than 10 years of experience and that the plane was inspected fully last summer and checked over Monday.

Al Diehl, a former crash investigator for the National Transportation Safety Board, said the plane’s high speed at low altitude, as evidenced by the wide scattering of small pieces of wreckage, suggested “extreme distress.”

“When you get down below the levels of the mountains and you’re still going over 400 knots, either you’re totally incapacitated or you have a horrific onboard emergency, or mechanically the aircraft is just not functioning,” Diehl said.

In Washington, President Obama described the accident as “particularly heartbreaking because it apparently includes the loss of so many children.”

The White House said there was no sign of terrorism.

GASOLINE COSTS PUMP UP CONSUMER PRICES Consumer prices posted their first increase in four months during February as gasoline costs edged up after a series of declines. The consumer price index increased 0.2%, the Labor Department said Tuesday, in line with expectations by economists surveyed by Action Economics.

Over the past year, prices were flat. Core prices, excluding food and energy, also rose 0.2% vs. the 0.1% expected. Core prices are unchanged the past year.

KRAFT FOODS IS TARGETED BY 3G CAPITAL PARTNERS LP The “Wall Street Journal" reported that 3G Capital Partners LP is in talks to buy Kraft Foods Group Inc., citing people familiar with the matter. The deal would likely be valued at upwards of $40 billion, the paper said. 3G is an acquisitive Brazilian firm known for buying consumer companies and aggressively slashing costs.

Kraft had no immediate comment. Kraft had a market value of roughly $37 billion on Tuesday, before reports of the possible deal surfaced.

NEW-HOME SALES SOAR New-home sales soared almost 8% in February as a snowy month failed to deter buyers as expected. Sales of single-family homes rose to a AFP/GETTY IMAGES seasonally adjusted annual rate of 539,000, up 7.8% from January, the Commerce Department said Tuesday. That dwarfed the median forecast for a 470,000 annual rate and a small monthly decline, according to Action Economics’ survey before the report.

Misener said.

The pace of FAA rule making has disappointed the drone industry, which argues that other countries are allowing drones — and their potential economic benefit — to develop faster.

In drafting rules released in February for small commercial drones weighing up to 55 pounds, the FAA has required one pilot per drone and required pilots to keep aircraft within sight. The FAA is collecting public comment on the proposal, and final approv-

technology and radio controls, which are expected in 2016.

“As proposed, the United States would have one of the most flexible (drone) regulatory frameworks in the world,” Gilligan said of the rule for small drones.

In the meantime, FAA has approved more than 50 commercial drone applications, with several hundred more pending. The agency announced Tuesday it is streamlining the approval process by routinely granting applications for drones flying lower than 200 feet high during the day within sight of the remote pilot and at least 2 miles from an airport.

The goal of Amazon’s Prime Air is to deliver packages within 30 minutes by flying drones below 500 feet. Misener argued that overall safety will increase from fewer shoppers heading to the store and fewer delivery trucks on the road.

Power players head west Google poaches Morgan Stanley’s CFO, underscoring growing shift in talent When Google announced that it hired Morgan Stanley’s chief financial officer, the news seemed to underscore a growing shift in power between Wall Street and Silicon Valley when it comes to talent.

Since the financial crisis, graduates have increasingly said goodbye to Wall Street bonuses in favor of careers in tech.

At Harvard Business School, for example, 33% of graduates went into finance last year, down from 44% in 2007. By contrast, 17% of Harvard Business School grads went into tech last year, up from 7% in 2007.

Now, Silicon Valley’s allure may also be rubbing off on seasoned Wall Street executives.

On Tuesday, Google announced it had hired Ruth Porat, one of Wall Street’s most powerful female executives, to manage the search engine company’s finances.

Shares of Google, which has been struggling with rising expenses, shot up on the news, closing up $11.38 a share, or 2%, to $570.19.

Porat, who has been with Morgan Stanley for 28 years, is not the first Wall Street C-Suite executive to make the leap, however.

In 2012, Twitter said it had nabbed Anthony Noto as its CFO. Noto had been the Goldman Sachs banker who helped the social-media company raise $2.1 billion in its initial public offering

just nine months earlier.

In December, messaging app Snapchat said it had poached Imran Khan, the Credit Suisse banker who led Chinese e-commerce company Alibaba’s IPO. Facebook’s CFO, David Wehner, also enjoyed a long career as a Wall Street banker and stock researcher before he switched sides — first in 2010 as CFO of gaming company Zynga. Wehner moved to Facebook in 2014.

“Wall Street is not viewed as the safe choice it once was,” says Dan Eaton, a lecturer in the management department of San Diego State University.

Indeed, banks have been slimming down in an effort to please regulators who have demanded they be prepared to make it through the next crisis without help from taxpayers. Last year, New York City’s Wall Street employed 167,800 people, down from 188,300 in 2007, just as the mortgage crisis was starting to unfold.

Pay is also down. Last year, the average Wall Street bonus ticked up 2% to $172,860, down from a high of $191,360 in 2006, and $177,830 in 2007.

To compete, Wall Street needs to improve its treatment of workers, says Alan Johnson of compensation consulting firm Johnson Associates.

“The conventional wisdom for 30 years was that if you want to make the most money you go to Wall Street. But now you can make more money in tech, and you can have a more interesting and better culture,” he said.

The Federal Aviation Administration is so slow to approve drone permits that the aircraft become obsolete while waiting, an Amazon executive told a Senate panel Tuesday.

Paul Misener, vice president of global public policy at Amazon, told the aviation subcommittee that the company was grateful to the FAA for approving an experimental permit Thursday to test potential package deliveries. But the drone had become obsolete during the months-long wait, so the company applied again Friday for a new permit for an updated aircraft.

“We are hopeful that this permission will be granted quickly,” WASHINGTON

al is expected in 18 to 24 months.

Misener said the proposal “doesn’t go far enough.” Amazon’s proposed delivery service Prime Air would have sophisticated technology to avoid other aircraft, he said. But the aircraft will have to fly highly automated routes 10 miles or more beyond the sight of remote pilots, he said.

“This low level of government attention and slow pace are inadequate, especially compared to the regulatory efforts in other countries,” Misener said.

FAA has maintained that safety is paramount for passenger planes and remotely piloted aircraft to share the skies. Key issues include how to avoid collisions and what happens when drones lose links to their remote pilots.

Shares are soaring into record territory on investor confidence in the 11-year-old company’s advertising business. Analysts predict Facebook’s revenue will rise 37% this year, to $17.1 billion.

Their 12-month price target: $91.57.

Facebook closed at a record $85.31 on Tuesday.

The social-networking giant is poised to take a large slice of an ever-expanding mobile advertising market in the U.S., which is expected to rise 50% to $28.7 billion this year, according to researcher eMarketer.

“They are better positioned than ever to sell digital ads” and compete with Google, says Craig Palli, chief strategy officer at Fiksu, a mobile-marketing company that works with Facebook.

“They’ve gone from a social network to a comprehensive ad-tech platform” with Newsfeed, Instagram, WhatsApp and, eventually, Oculus.

When Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg delivers a keynote speech this morning to kick off the two-day conference here, he’ll have plenty to boast about. And yet, he’ll also have much explaining to do about the future of the company he co-founded as a Harvard University student.

I bring up this personal information on big-ticket purchases because today durable goods orders for February are set for release, and Wall Street is expecting a much weaker number compared with January. And, again, they’re blaming “poor weather.”

(Keep in mind, however, that on Tuesday Wall Street was also expecting February newhome sales to be hurt by icy roads and sub-zero temperatures, but sales surprised to the upside, as new-home sales hit their highest level in seven years.)

Still, sales of durable goods last month are expected to cool due to brutal wintery conditions.

“Incoming data suggest that poor weather in the Midwest and Northeast had a significant impact on activity last month, which is likely to have also affected durable goods,” Adam Collins of Capital Economics wrote in a client report.

Indeed, due to a likely drop in the “volatile transport” category, Collins expects an even bigger drop in durable goods orders, or a drop of 0.8%.

Stores feature bargain prices, but stock doesn’t Q: Is Ross a bargain-stock pick?

Matt Krantz

mkrantz@usatoday.com USA TODAY

A: Ross Stores might be best known for helping consumers save money on apparel. But it’s investors who are making the biggest bundle on this discount retailer.

Shares of the Dublin, Calif.-based seller of discount clothes, shoes and housewares have been big winners for investors. Most recently, shares of the company have soared more than 45% over the past year, pushing the stock to roughly $107 a share. Seeing the shares break the $100 barrier apparently signaled to the company it’s time for a split.

Ross announced a 2-for-1 stock split Tuesday.

Ross is one of those rare companies that continues to perform year after year and quarter after quarter. Adjusted earnings per share jumped 18% in the quarter ended in January, topping analysts’ expectations by 7%. And the growth is expected to continue.

Analysts are calling for the company to boost adjusted profit per share in the current fiscal year by 9.3%, says S&P Capital IQ. Here’s the problem: So many investors have found this stock that it’s no longer a bargain. While analysts rate the stock “outperform,” they have an 18month price target on the stock of roughly $105 a share. And with a P-E of 24 times diluted earnings the past 12 months, it’s not the bargain it was.

Pharmacyclics CEO a $3.5B man Executives set for big payouts from buyout Gary Strauss USA TODAY

Robert Duggan, CEO of biotech drugmaker Pharmacyclics, will pocket more than $3.5 billion from the company’s sale to AbbVie, one of the biggest paydays ever from the buyout of a publicly held company.

Under terms of the deal, Duggan will receive $3.55 billion for his 13.6 million shares, about an 18% stake in the biotech company, according to corporate filings.

Other senior executives are set for big payouts, including Chief Operating Officer Mahkam Zanganeh, whose shares are worth nearly $224.6 million, and director David Smith, who will pocket nearly $46.5 million. All told, directors and senior executives could receive nearly $4 billion in merger-related payments, Pharmacyclics says.

Duggan, 70, is a longtime private venture investor and was CEO of surgical systems maker Computer Motion until it was acquired by Intuitive Surgical in 2003.

Duggan began buying Pharma-

cyclics stock in 2004, eventually amassing nearly a 25% stake. But by 2008, shares had fallen below $1. The company’s fortunes turned on chronic lymphocytic leukemia treatment Imbruvica and a series of drug industry mergers.

Pharmacyclics shares currently trade at about $258. Takeover speculation — including interest from Imbruvica partner Johnson & Johnson — have boosted Pharmacyclics 119% this year alone, based on Tuesday’s $257.75 close.

Duggan has declined compensation from the company since becoming CEO in 2008.

More diverse casting. Fewer dark crime shows. Comedies that focus on families rather than romantic couplings.

Those are the highlights of the spring rite of passage known as pilot season, when broadcast networks cast, produce and screen dozens of pilots for potential series. This year it has taken on a more urgent feel: NBC and Fox are down sharply, and intense competition from cable and streaming services, offering shorter commitments, has made it tougher for networks to land top stars and put projects at risk.

RAY MICKSHAW, FOX

About 80 pilots are in contention on the five major broadcast networks, down from 100 last year. And while Fox’s Empire, the season’s biggest new hit, came too late to influence pitches for new shows, which began last fall, it has been a factor in casting them.

“Certainly there’s been an incredible interest from all of the

networks in diverse casts,” says Fox Television Group chief Dana Walden. “Everyone asks every year, ‘What will it take for diversity to be a big priority?’ And you know what it takes? A giant hit.

Our shows need to reflect our audiences.”

Fox, aiming for a comeback, is looking for companion pieces for

Gotham and Empire, and it has cast Rob Lowe as a former TV lawyer in comedy The Grinder.

NBC, coming off a weak year for new series, is casting a wide net. ABC is eyeing more family comedies and unique dramas such as Smoke and Mirrors, Shonda Rhimes’ latest, which stars Mireille Enos (The Killing) as a fraud investigator who’s conned by her fiancée. And CBS is heavying up on medical, law and detective dramas.

“We’re going to have every branch of government covered,” jokes Carolyn Finger, senior VP at Variety Insights, which tracks program-development trends.

But “we haven’t had a big medical-drama hit for a long time.”

Only a fraction will land spots on network schedules, signaling a need for promotable uniqueness.

Says Walden: “It’s really hard for the shows that don’t have something that really pops out to resonate.”

KANSAS FOOTBALL

Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

Jayhawks working with what they’ve got this spring Such good weather leading up to the first day of spring football practice and then Tuesday arrives and wham. Gray skies. A brief appearance of the sun.

Heavy rain. Two different hail storms. A brief blast of thunder and lightning.

An argument could be made that even Mother Nature conspires against the Kansas University football team, which will open the 2015 season with fewer players recruited on scholarship than a Football Championship Subdivision (1-AA) roster.

First-year head coach David Beaty could belabor the facts that show such an empty cupboard, but he has no interest in handing crutches for his players to lean on when the losses mount.

“We don’t have but in the neighborhood of 50-some guys on scholarship right now,” Beaty said after practice. “I really don’t count anymore because I don’t want to think about it, to be honest with you. I just want to think about the guys we have and what we’ve got to do with those guys. I keep hearing everything about scholarships. I don’t care about that. I care about the guys who are here and what we’re going to do to develop them. We can moan and whine and complain about what we don’t have or we can go to work with what we do have.”

He had a blast going to work as a head coach for the first time since he worked at the high-school level in Texas. Beaty so enjoyed the day he even said he liked the music.

That’s saying something.

One, ahem, love song would have made the late, great Barry White blush.

Music played throughout the practice.

“The truth of it is we communicate non-verbally,” Beaty said. “We do it in the weight room. We do it everywhere we go. We have to operate on tempo, particularly within this conference, and the people do it in loud environments, so we’re not going to wait until Thursday before the game to play crowd noise.

We’re going to do it every single day.”

It’s about training the mind in such a way as to turn everything but the task at hand into white noise.

“Sometimes we’ll pop it in our meeting rooms, just so it’s hard to communicate,” Beaty said. “And then we can focus on the screen. ... It gets their juices flowing. They like that music. We’ve got to watch that playlist, make sure it’s got the right words in it.”

Long way to go there.

Long way to go everywhere. Two small signs of improvement were evident Tuesday at offensive line. Larry Mazyck is a lot smaller, Jordan ShelleySmith much bigger. On the D-line, end Anthony Olobia looked really quick. It’s a start.

KU spring practice opens Beaty era

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

KANSAS CORNERBACK MATTHEW BOATENG, back, tries to knock a pass from the hands of receiver Rodriguez Coleman during spring practice on Tuesday.

There was no depth chart, only a number of different position charts. There were no old habits, only new routines. And by the time the first spring practice under first-year Kansas University football coach David Beaty had wrapped — a little more than three hours after it began, thanks to a lightning delay that Beaty called “adversity” — Beaty summed up the day with genuine excitement over what had just been accomplished.

“I felt like our energy, our passion and our enthusiasm was there,” Beaty said. “Now the challenge comes. Anybody can do that for the first day. How can we do it for the next 15, how can we do it on the off days and then what do we do off the field in between? There’s a big transition going on here and it was a good step in the right direction, but it was only a single step.”

Tuesday’s spring opener, which took place in conditions more suited to late fall,

was merely the latest move in what Beaty refers to as a process. That process began when he was hired on Dec. 5 and continued into the recruiting season which wrapped in early February and weekly, sometimes daily, meetings with KU fans, administrators and supporters from around the state.

The idea behind it all was exactly why Beaty said the Jayhawks did not yet have a depth chart.

“As coaches, we’re trying to escape perception (and) deal with reality, not what people say, but what we see,” Beaty said.

Although strength coach Je’Ney Jackson and his staff, who earned praise from Beaty for the work they did to get the Jayhawks ready for spring drills, had worked with Beaty’s bunch during the past couple of months, Tuesday’s practice marked Beaty’s first opportunity to truly see his new team. And watching the squad work did not stop when the final horn sounded.

Self reflects on season’s highs, lows “

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

More than anything, Bill Self wishes he was in Cleveland today, preparing his Kansas University basketball team for an NCAA Midwest Regional Sweet 16 game against Notre Dame.

Instead, Sunday’s 78-65 Round of 32 loss to Wichita State has put him on the road recruiting as he works on shaping the roster for the 2015-16 season.

“I am not making any excuses for our guys because we could have very easily advanced, but this was a team in which they did a pretty good job of piecing it together this year.

The pieces didn’t fit great,” Self said Tuesday, speaking with one Journal-World reporter in his office instead of dozens of media members in Cleveland that would have descended Self upon the team hotel Tuesday evening had KU, not WSU, advanced.

“The kids adjusted and basically really did well to win the league and be a 2-seed against a monster schedule. Basically our inconsistencies certainly

caught up to us at the very end,” Self added.

Self, who has not watched tape of the season-ending setback, obviously remembers all the key moments in Sunday’s defeat in Omaha.

“It was a disappointing end to a good season,” Self said. “We lost to a really good team. They were a really good team on Sunday. They made shots the second half (16 of 27, 5 of 9 from three). We never got in a rhythm offensively and didn’t get into a rhythm defensively to start the second half. The game came down to 10 minutes — the last five minutes of the first half they go on an 11-0 run (13-2 to grab 29-26 lead). The first

five minutes of the second half they were able to extend the lead from three to 10. Other than that, we basically traded baskets. Certainly they were better.”

KU had a chance to go up 10 with 41⁄2 minutes left in the first half. However, Landen Lucas missed an inside shot that was followed by an Evan Wessel three on the other end.

“We had numerous opportunities in the first half to be up by more than eight,” Self said. “They finished the half right and we didn’t, then they started the half right and we didn’t. When you play with a lead, the basket

I am not making any excuses for our guys because we could have easily advanced, but this was a team in which they did a pretty good job of piecing it together this year.”

AMERICAN FOOTBALL CONFERENCE

Owners OK press box spotters to look for concussions

By Tom Rock Newsday (TNS)

Phoenix — League owners voted unanimously at the NFL’s Annual Meeting on Tuesday to approve a new rule which will allow a spotter in the press box to communicate with officials and stop a game if he sees a player who appears to have concussion-like symptoms.

Had that rule been on the books as recently as two months ago, it might have altered the outcome of the Super Bowl.

It was in the fourth quarter of that game when Patriots wide receiver Julian Edelman caught a 21-yard pass and was hit hard by Seahawks safety Kam Chancellor. He appeared dazed after the hit, but he returned to the huddle and did not leave the game. Edelman wound up catching the gamewinning touchdown.

The Competition Committee analyzed that sequence of events in proposing the new rule.

“The Edelman situation was a play we looked at and it was part of the issue,” chairman Rich McKay said on Monday.

“There were a couple of other plays that go back a couple of years that we looked at and really it came a little bit from the health and safety committee just saying, ‘We’ve got the ATC spotters, they’ve got a really good vantage point, they’ve got technology in their booth, they’re communicating pretty well with our trainers and doctors and we’ve got a pretty good rhythm going there, why would we miss a player where a player shouldn’t come out?’

Maybe this becomes the failsafe.”

Prior to the rule being adopted, trainers in the press box were able to alert medical staffs to something that might have been missed on the field.

“This [resolution] now allows the ATC spotter to communicate directly with the game officials through their wireless communication system,” NFL vice president of officiating Dean Blandino said Monday. “He can say, ‘We have to get 82 out of the game.’ So it will happen before the next snap. He’ll communicate with a member of the officiating crew and that game official will immediately stop the game. If the play clock is running, they will stop. They will freeze. The player will be escorted to the sideline and the medical staff will attend to him if they need to on the field. Or they will take him off to the sideline to attend to him. Then everything will start up again.”

McKay said he doesn’t think the new rule will interfere with the flow of the game.

“We do not expect this to be a rule that gets used a lot,” he said. “We expect it to be a fail-safe when people just don’t see this player and the distress the player may have had, the ATC spotter does and stops the game.”

Four other safety-based rules also were approved on Tuesday, including: —The broadening of the prohibition on peel-back blocks to include all offensive players and not just those inside the tackle box.

—Protection of wide receivers as defenseless players in the “immediate continuing action following an interception.”

—The elimination of chop blocks by running backs outside the area originally occupied by a tight end.

—The addition of a penalty for defensive players pushing their teammates when the opposing team is in a punt formation.

BRIEFLY Mississippi State tabs Howland Starkville, Miss. — Ben Howland’s coaching career has made the unlikely trek from Westwood to Starkville, with a TV timeout in between.

The 57-year-old was introduced as Mississippi State’s new men’s basketball coach Tuesday afternoon on the floor at Humphrey Coliseum. The former UCLA coach — who led the Bruins to three straight Final Fours from 2006 to 2008 — takes over a program with only a fraction of the national prestige, though the Bulldogs did make their one and only Final Four appearance in 1996.

“That is our goal,” Howland said. “To get back there again.”

Several hundred fans rang their cowbells in celebration when Howland was introduced, hoping for a quick revival for a program that has fallen to an afterthought in the Southeastern Conference.

Howland replaces Rick Ray, who was fired on Saturday after a 37-60 record over three seasons, including a 15-44 mark against SEC competition.

The coaching search that led to Howland barely lasted two days. Mississippi State athletic director Scott Stricklin said he had phone conversations with Howland on Saturday night and Sunday, and then the two met in Atlanta on Monday to finalize a deal.

FREE STATE BASKETBALL COACH CHUCK LAW instructs his team during a game against Lawrence High on Feb. 27 at LHS.

Law recalls good times ————

Ex-FSHS coach says he was ready for exit

By Bobby Nightengale bnightengale@ljworld.com

Former Free State High boys basketball coach Chuck Law is proud of what he accomplished with his team on and off the court for the past nine seasons. Now he just wants to give somebody else the opportunity to take the program in a new direction.

Law resigned from his head coaching position on March 9, a few days following Free State’s season-ending loss in the first round of sub-state to Shawnee Mission North.

“For me personally, it’s just time for a break,” Law said Monday. “It’s time for Free State to go a new direction with a coach. I’m really excited about where the program is right now. ... It may not be the end of my coaching career either as an assistant or maybe again as a head coach, if that opportunity were to ever develop.”

Law, who was an assistant coach at FSHS for seven years and also was an assistant at Emporia High from 1993-98, previously declined comment until Lawrence High’s boys basketball season ended at the Class 6A state tournament to avoid taking any attention away from their accomplishments. He said there wasn’t a moment that led to his resignation, but the mental and emotional grind was a factor.

“We’re so fired up, man,” Beaty said. “We’re like kids in a candy store right now with that video to watch. We just haven’t had anything to watch that’s ours, that we can (use to) truly evaluate our guys.”

They do now. In addition to installing significant portions of their new offense and defense, the Jayhawks ran 94 plays in a 44-minute period, numbers that exceeded Beaty’s expectations.

One of the big reasons they were able to do that much was the simple philosophy with which Beaty and offensive coordinator Rob Likens operate.

“The installation, offensively and defensively is very rapid,” Beaty said.

“It’s a three-day installation and we just repeat it every three days. Day 1, Day 2, Day 3. Day 1, Day 2, Day 3. Until we get bored.

Until everybody knows where everybody’s gonna be all the time.”

Those plays included everything from deep balls and vertical routes to quick slants and tosses to the tight end over the middle. But the tempo remained high no matter what plays were called, and the Jayhawks moved

“It was something I’d been thinking about throughout the course of the year,” Law said. “It certainly was not a spur of the moment decision.

I would say even as early as mid-January that the sense that maybe it was time for me to step down was kind of starting to develop. After that loss to Shawnee Mission North, it just seemed like it was the right thing to do.”

Law led the Firebirds to state tournament appearances in 2007 and 2013. Despite losing seven seniors from the previous year, Free State finished with an 11-10 record last season, and Law believes the next coach is “walking into a pretty good situation.”

“I’m very proud of the last group,” Law said.

“I don’t think there was much of an expectation for those kids to have as much success as they did this year. I met privately with the seniors before I addressed the whole team on that day when I had told them that I had resigned and I told the seniors that I couldn’t have really asked for a better group to go out with in terms of five seniors who really bought in to what we were trying to get done as a team.”

Law intends to continue teaching at Free State and is looking forward to focusing solely on his duties in the classroom. He said he’ll miss the play-

quickly and with elevated enthusiasm throughout the day.

There were, of course, guys who got the first crack at the reps on the field, and Beaty said that was because they had earned it. That’s not to say it will stay that way.

As Beaty said, they might move a guy from the fourth spot on his position chart to the first, just to see how he handles it.

But somebody had to go first at every position and Beaty said the guys who did on Tuesday, which included senior quarterback Michael Cummings, were the guys who had done the best work in the weight room or performed best in various competitions throughout the winter.

“Don’t read too much into what you see out there early,” Beaty said.

“The thing that we wanted to impress on our guys was that from Dec. 5 to now mattered. And that’s why you saw who went out there first, because they earned that opportunity.”

Walk-on program a hit One of Beaty’s biggest goals when he took over at KU was to develop a walk-on program that could have a meaningful and immediate impact on the team. So far, so good. With a little more than just 50 scholarship

ers he coached, especially in the summer when he worked with the Firebirds in summer workouts and with younger kids in the summer league he ran with LHS boys basketball coach Mike Lewis.

“We’ve been kind of middle of the pack of the Sunflower League for pretty much the duration of my career with one exception when we finished in the top-three,” Law said. “Our overall record, I think we’ve had seven 10-win seasons, but we’ve never managed to win more than 13 games.

“I think at some point a person just has to be honest enough and big enough that it’s time for a change. I think we achieved what we could as a program with me at the helm, and now it’s time for someone else to come in and see if it can be taken to another level.”

Law noted that he’s received many emails, phone calls and text messages of support from former players, parents and opposing coaches.

He also was appreciative of the help he’s received from the FSHS staff and his former assistant coaches.

“I walk away with good feelings,” Law said. “Just thankful for all of the people who supported me and the things that I tried to get accomplished at Free State over the years.”

gets bigger. When you play from behind, the basket shrinks. I thought we played really hard, especially the first half. I thought we lost our poise some to start the second half. The guys tried.”

Self did not elect to complain about the fact the (304) Shockers entered the tournament as a 7-seed, instead of say a 3 or 4.

“This is a team that has won 90 games or whatever (95) over the last three years. They are better than a 7-seed, but it doesn’t make any difference because you have to play whoever is in front of you,” Self said.

“So much comes down to matchups. We had a young team going against an experienced team. It was something we were capable of playing better than we did. I wish I’d gotten my guys prepared better to make more of a legitimate run, but it was a situation whoever you play in the second round will be a hard draw. Last year we drew a team that had unbelievable size, probably the biggest team we played all year (Stanford) and we played without our length in Joel (Embiid, injury). Not having our full complement of players probably did not help us. I’m not going to say it hurt us, either.

Who knows how it would have played out?”

KU’s Cliff Alexander did not play in KU’s two NCAA Tournament games because of an NCAA inquiry into his eligibility.

“I am disappointed obviously because we didn’t have our full complement of guys,” Self said. “I feel bad for Cliff. I personally think that it’s sad, sad, sad for him moreso than anybody else, but it’s also sad for all his teammates, too, that count on him. You’ve got to deal with rules. I understand

Wednesday, March 25, 2015 that. To me not having him was disappointing. I thought our players did a good job of handling it where it wasn’t a distraction. We never talked like he was coming back with our players. Regardless of what kind of talks we had as a staff, our players weren’t counting on it so I didn’t think it was a huge distraction.”

Self said nothing has been decided yet by the NCAA. “Cliff is a member of the team. Nothing has been declared,” Self said, indicating KU would announce something when the NCAA rules on the player’s fate.

The bottom line on the season, Self said, “is we had a really good year.

I’m proud of our guys.

They fought hard. We had a lot of things to deal with. I wish we’d obviously played better at the end. They (players) do too. It wasn’t for a lack of effort or competitive desire. If we could have won one more game and got to this weekend ... I felt the pressure probably was on us to get to the Sweet 16. (The) next week there was no pressure, just to play (against Notre Dame, then likely Kentucky in Elite Eight).” l NBA talk: Without naming names, Self acknowledged some players will likely be turning pro within the next couple weeks.

Kelly Oubre Jr. and Alexander arrived as almost certain one-and-dones.

Nothing seems to have changed in that regard.

Perry Ellis and Wayne Selden Jr., also have not said for sure they will be back. As always, transfers are a possibility.

“I’m realistic to know we’re going to have a guy or two leave,” Self said. “I’m also realistic to know sometimes kids and families do things you don’t anticipate them doing, too. That’s the nature of this business right now — kind of wait and see. I

anticipate losing a couple guys but I’m hopeful we’ll have the rest of our players back because we do have a good foundation but we do need to solidify that and add a couple more players.”

Self said he has already met with “a couple of them (players), but we’ll get together and start talking at the end of this week or the first of next week.” l Svi to return: Freshman Sviatoslav Mykhailiuk said in Omaha he’d return for his sophomore season. Self is planning on that.

“We’ve been talking to him about his summer plans and how to get better. He’ll be home (Ukraine) between the end of the semester and start of summer school, two or three weeks,” Self said. l Recruiting: KU currently has one scholarship to give in recruiting following the commitment of Carlton Bragg, 6-9, 225 senior from Villa Angela St. Joseph High in Cleveland.

“We’ve got one commitment. It’d be nice to sign another big. It would be nice to sign a guard,” Self said.

Prospects who are considering KU include No. 2-ranked (by Rivals. com) Jaylen Brown, 6-7, Wheeler High, Marietta, Georgia; No. 3 Malik Newman, 6-3, Callaway High, Jackson, Mississippi; No.. 5 Thon Maker, 7-foot, Orangeville Prep, Mono, Ontario; No. 7 Cheick Diallo, 6-7, Our Savior New American, Centereach, New York; No. 8 Ivan Rabb, 6-9, Bishop O’Dowd, Oakland, California; No. 11 Stephen Zimmerman, 7-foot, Bishop Gorman High, Las Vegas; No. 19 Brandon Ingram, 6-8, Kinston (North Carolina) High.

“We’ve had to shut it down,” an enthused Beaty said of the walk-on program. “We just didn’t have any more spots.”

No hurry at QB Beaty reiterated that the coaching staff was in no hurry to name a starting quarterback for the 2015 season. He alluded to a time at Rice when the Owls did not name a starter until three days before the opening game.

And while Cummings, Montell Cozart and T.J. Millweard all garnered mention from Beaty after practice, he made it clear that the priority with that position was to find the right guy.

His requirements for that player included a guy who could manage the game, take care of the football, move the team and be an effective leader.

“We’ll take our time,” Beaty said. “If we don’t name a starter until the day of the game, I’m fine with that.”

BOTH KENTUCKY COACH JOHN CALIPARI, LEFT, AND WEST VIRGINIA COACH BOB HUGGINS have been known to shout during the course of a game. When the shouting is over, Huggins has had the best of it, defeating Calipari in eight of 10 meetings. Huggins’ West Virginia team will be a decided underdog when the teams play Thursday in the regional semifinals of the NCAA Tournament in Cleveland.

W.Va’s Huggins looks for another win over Calipari

By John Raby AP Sports Writer

West Virginia coach Bob Huggins has had his way against Kentucky’s John Calipari over the years.

Huggins is 8-2 all-time against his close friend.

Meeting No. 11 will be Huggins’ greatest challenge against a Caliparicoached team when West Virginia takes on the NCAA Tournament’s top overall seed in the Sweet 16 on Thursday night in Cleveland.

“We’re going to have fun trying,” Huggins said.

“He’ll have them ready.

He always has them ready.”

Whether fifth-seeded West Virginia (25-9) will be ready for double-digit favorite Kentucky (36-0) may be another matter, but Huggins insists his players won’t give in to

the pressure. He noted that when senior guards Juwan Staten and Gary Browne were out with injuries late in the regular season, freshmen Javon Carter and Daxter Miles Jr. embraced the opportunity to lead the team into Allen Fieldhouse in Lawrence, Kansas, where the Mountaineers took the Jayhawks to overtime before losing 76-69.

“These guys are different,” Huggins said.

“They kind of relish the moment. They love to play, and that’s what’s fun about them. They love to play. They love being around each other.”

So do Huggins and Calipari, who enjoy a longtime friendship.

When Huggins suffered a heart attack at the Pittsburgh airport in 2002, Calipari went to visit him in the hospital.

Huggins said he couldn’t estimate the number of times the pair speak during the year.

“We talk about a lot of things,” Huggins said.

“Sometimes it’s about basketball.”

Eight of Huggins’ wins against Calipari came when Huggins was Cincinnati’s coach. Six occurred when Calipari was at Memphis and two when he coached Massachusetts. They’re 1-1 head-to-head with their current teams.

It marks the third time in West Virginia’s last four NCAA Tournament appearances that it will play Kentucky.

In 2010, West Virginia advanced to its first Final Four in 51 years by beating Kentucky 73-66 in 2010 when the Wildcats were a No. 1 seed in Calipari’s first season.

Steamed Artichokes

A HEARTY APPETIZER

Artichokes have an interesting history

Y

ou have to wonder about the first person who decided to eat an artichoke. I suppose it could have been starvation that led some ancient human to attempt to ingest this Mediterranean thistle, but I rather suspect it was a dare between two men.

I envision them roasting one over a fire, realizing how delicious it was, and then deciding to keep it to themselves. You see, for centuries afterward, only men were allowed to consume artichokes; their supposed aphrodisiac qualities put them off limits to any woman who wanted to keep her reputation.

Fortunately, Catherine de Medici, a queen of France in the 16th century, didn’t much confine herself to the traditional gender roles of the time. She brought

artichokes to France from her native Italy, and ate so many that she “liked to burst with them,” according to one contemporary.

The vegetable’s popularity spread through Southern Europe and eventually made it to California, where most artichokes are grown today.

But really, how do you eat an artichoke?

In addition to tough outer leaves, the bristly “choke” inside will literally leave you coughing and sputtering.

There are only two parts of an artichoke that are edible. The first is a tiny bit of tender flesh at the base of each leaf, which is best scraped off between your front teeth. The second is the heart, a tender disc buried underneath the fuzzy choke.

Cooking From Scratch

Meryl Carver-Allmond It’s a bit of work to get to the good parts, to be sure, but dipped in a little melted butter or garlic-herb mayo, I can understand why Queen Catherine was willing to risk a bit of infamy to gobble artichokes up.

Rustic Beet Panzanella

Limestone salad inspires beet panzanella

I

f you have never had Limestone Pizzaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Warm Beet and White Bean Salad, you should rectify that immediately.

It is a beautiful winter salad that I would happily eat any time of year. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s vibrant in taste and color, and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s filling, so the name â&#x20AC;&#x153;saladâ&#x20AC;? hardly does it justice. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s more of a â&#x20AC;&#x153;dish.â&#x20AC;?

I went in to Limestone recently to have said salad, and it was already gone for the day. This is no surprise.

If you have had the salad, you understand why it was sold out.

But I was unable to sate myself with just the pizza, and continued to think about

The Flying Fork

that I hoped would suffice in the stead of Limestoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s original.

I thought about the things that I find important, like texture, acid, sweetness and substance. I came out thinking the best thing I could do would be make a beet panzanella, and that is just what I did.

Sweetness from apples and honey, the pucker of the beets all day long, until I balsamic, earthiness of simply had to go home and beets and spinach, the salty make something similar for goodness of bacon, and myself. crunch from sunflower I would never claim to seeds all appealed to me, have replicated Limestoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s mixed in with the heartirecipe.

Rustic Beet Panzanella Ingredients 4 medium-sized beets 1 tablespoon olive oil Dash of salt 3 strips bacon 3 cups baby spinach leaves 1/2 rustic baguette, cut into small cubes 2 tablespoons herbed goat cheese 1 Gala apple For the dressing 2 tablespoons olive oil 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar 1 tablespoon honey 1/8 teaspoon basil leaves

Directions Shake the dressing together in a jar with the lid screwed tightly on.

Heat the oven to 400 F. Cut the stalks off the beets and chop them into slices.

Roast them in olive oil and salt for 30 minutes. Fry the bacon and chop into small pieces.

Meanwhile, assemble the rest of your salad. Add spinach leaves, diced apple chunks, hunks of goat cheese and the bread pieces.

Top with beets, drizzle healthily with the dressing.

Serve immediately.

Bacon lattice technique makes for a clever, better California BLT

By Susan Selasky Detroit Free Press

While perusing the March issue of Food and Wine magazine, I found a clever, new tip for cooking bacon for BLT sandwiches: Weave smaller bacon slices together to form a square. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s so simple and makes sense.

What caught my eye was a picture of a pound of bacon cut in half crosswise â&#x20AC;&#x201D; one way I typically cut and freeze the bacon. (Storing it this way means I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to defrost the entire pound.)

I was interested in what they were using the smaller bacon strips for.

This technique comes from Justin Chapple, the star of the magazineâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Mad Genius Tips videos.

Chapple called it â&#x20AC;&#x153;bacon lattice.â&#x20AC;?

I call it clever and yummy.

Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ideal about this technique is that you use only three regular slices of bacon for one sandwich. But you cut those three slices in half and weave them together into one square. By doing so, you have a bacon piece that fits nicely and covers nearly the entire slice of bread. Depending on the size of bread you use, you will get a taste of bacon in nearly every bite.

Once youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve woven the slices together, the lattice is baked until crisp. When I cook bacon in the oven on a rack or on a foil-lined baking sheet, it usually doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t curl. But Chapple provided another tip

to make sure the bacon square doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t curl: Put an inverted cooling rack on top of the bacon.

I tried the bacon lattice, making a version of the recipe in the magazine: California BLTs. It was awesome and worked like a charm. My bacon lattices took a little longer to get crispy, but I was also using thicker bacon. Be sure to line the pan with foil or parchment for easier cleanup and to make sure the bacon lattice doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t stick to the pan.

8 slices multigrain sandwich bread, toasted 1 avocado, peeled, pitted and sliced 2 Persian or hothouse cucumbers, thinly sliced on the diagonal 1 medium tomato, thinly sliced 4 small Bibb lettuce leaves 1/2 cup mixed sprouts, such as radish, sunflower and alfalfa Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or foil.

For each lattice, weave 6 strips of bacon, 3 in each direction, on the prepared baking sheet.

Set an ovenproof rack upside down on the bacon to keep it flat. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, depending on the thickness of the bacon, until browned and crisp. Remove the rack, then transfer the bacon lattices to paper towels to drain.

Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk the mayonnaise with the tarragon and lemon juice. Season

California BLTs Makes: 4 hearty sandwiches / Preparation time: 30 minutes / Total time: 45 minutes 12 slices of bacon, halved crosswise 1/2 cup reduced-fat mayonnaise 1 tablespoon finely chopped tarragon 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste

with salt and pepper.

Spread the tarragon mayonnaise on each slice of toast. Arrange the sliced avocado, cucumbers and tomato on 4 slices of the toast and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Top with the bacon lattices, Bibb leaves and sprouts. Close the sandwiches and serve. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Adapted from Food and Wine magazine, March 2015 issue.

Man can’t stand people snapping his suspenders Dear Annie: I am a male, over 60, gray, balding and noticeably overweight. Because of back problems, I choose to wear suspenders instead of a belt. So, why is it that women of all ages think it’s OK to snap my suspenders, or at least express a desire to do so?

I’m fairly certain that if I were to snap their bra straps, they would slap my face and call the police, and rightly so. Why, then, do these ladies believe they have a right to put their hands on me? — Lost for an Answer Dear Lost: We have no clue why anyone, male or female, would think it is OK to treat your suspenders as though they were a child’s toy to play with.

You likely appear to others as jocular and friendly, which makes

them treat you as though you are familiar and accessible. But this doesn’t excuse their behavior. If someone approaches you a little too closely, feel free to back away or ask them to keep their hands to themselves.

Dear Annie: I read the letter from “Hurting for My Brotherin-Law.” She said her brother-in-law’s wife died, and her three sons from a previous marriage put her first

New Web export is comedy dud The Internet has been a fertile ground for comic talent. “Broad City,” starring Abbi Jacobson and Ilana Glazer, has just completed its second season on Comedy Central. It’s one of the better examples of a Web-based series that found a larger audience on more traditional television. It has a cheap and dirty feel about it that meshes nicely with its storylines about two perfectly ridiculous 20-something women.

In contrast, the new series “Big Time in Hollywood, FL” (9:30 p.m., Comedy Central) is set in the world of go-nowhere young people, but has a decidedly slick look and professional feel.

Alex Anfanger and Lenny Jacobson star as Jack and Ben, brothers who see themselves as budding filmmakers but depend entirely on their parents, Diana and Alan (Kathy Baker and Stephen Tobolowsky), for, well, everything.

Things come to a head when Mom and Dad decide to kick them out so they can get jobs and, perhaps, a life. And it’s around this point — scant minutes into the proceedings — when the tone shifts toward the ugly and incredible. The brothers shout obscenities at their father and accuse him of sexual molestation and later decide to scam their parents into bankrolling their film project and auteur lifestyle.

Neither their goofy delusions nor their harsh turn toward extortion are entirely believable — or much worth caring about.

And the “Big Time” production values are completely out of sync with its subject matter. For those who stick around, look for cameos from Cuba Gooding Jr. and Michael Madsen.

Tonight’s other highlights

The wages of interns are murder on “The Mysteries of Laura” (7 p.m., NBC).

The top nine perform on “American Idol” (7 p.m., Fox).

Allegations hit close to home for Carisi on “Law & Order: SVU” (8 p.m., NBC).

Phil feels old on “Modern Family” (8 p.m., ABC).

Collateral damage on “The Americans” (9 p.m., FX).

Miller’s sister’s problems come to the surface on “Broadchurch” (9 p.m., BBC America).

Moira and David launch a cosmetics line on “Schitt’s Creek” (9 p.m., Pop).

husband’s name on the headstone. I can understand their reasons.

My mother remarried when I was 17, and she died 15 months later. Her second husband asked my permission not to use my father’s name on the headstone.

It seemed reasonable, so I agreed. The headstone only shows her maiden name and that of her second husband.

Years passed, and I had only minimal contact with my stepfather, who died a long time ago. My grown children never knew him. They worry they will be unable to find their grandmother’s burial plot because they don’t easily recall my stepfather’s last name. I phoned the cemetery and requested that they cross-reference Mom’s married name with my maiden name, but they refused.

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS

For Wednesday, March 25: This year you seem to have two different sides to your personality.

At times you can be very sensitive and intuitive, yet at other times you can be somewhat superficial.

If you are single, you might find that someone can relate to one side of your personality but not the other. If you are attached, the two of you could be arguing more.

The stars show the kind of day you’ll have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult Aries (March 21-April 19) Your optimism draws people out, and before you know it, you could find yourself backing off. Tonight: Expect a little upheaval. Look at it as excitement.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) You will want to weigh the pros and cons of your assets and what you offer to others. Tonight: Run an errand or two.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) You have a way of appealing to others and drawing them out. Others think you have all the answers. Tonight: Do what you want.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) You can go over the same situation only so many times. You might want to pull back. Tonight: Get some extra zzz’s.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) You might want to understand exactly what is needed to finish a project. Tonight: Hang with your friends.

In years to come, my children’s descendents may wish to know where their grandmother is buried, but her second husband of one year will not be remembered. — G. Dear G.: You should make certain that your papers include your mother’s married name so that future generations will have a record of it and can locate her gravesite. You also might find out from the cemetery whether you can add anything to the headstone or who can give you the authority to do so — perhaps your stepfather’s children, who may not have any objection to your adding your father’s name.

— Send questions to anniesmailbox@comcast.net, or Annie’s Mailbox, P.O. Box 118190 Chicago, IL 60611.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Do some thinking, as your views might be causing problems with others when you least need them to. Tonight: Return calls and emails.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Keep reaching out to someone whom you are interested in getting to know better. Tonight: At the movies with good company.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You still might be wondering if you can lasso one specific individual who intrigues you. Tonight: Paint the town red.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You might want to consider making a change. You have been a bit down about recent events. Tonight: Homeward bound.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) One-on-one relating will take on new significance. Understand what is happening with a friend. Tonight: At home.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Understand that others count on your humor, wisdom and willingness to chip in. Tonight: Out playing.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) A personal matter could be getting the best of you. Others will be able to see it in your face.

Tonight: Head home and make a favorite meal.
