City approves HERE valet parking plan

By Nikki Wentling Twitter: @nikkiwentling

Developers of the HERE Kansas apartment and retail project can have their 510-space valet parking garage and fill the under-construction

apartment building near Kansas University to 88 percent capacity this August, the Lawrence City Commission decided Tuesday.

Commissioners also directed city staff to begin the process of amending

city code to establish standards for valet parking garages, though the HERE Kansas garage will not be bound to that change. The 4-1 vote came nearly three months after developers first came to city commissioners seeking permis-

sion to reconfigure their parking system.

“I think the approach here is reasonable that the developer is proposing,” said City Manager Tom Markus. “I know I’m early in my career here, and this is not sitting well

with a certain part of the population, and I get that.

But I look at this and I see you have two choices: go down the path of trying to reach a reasonable settlement with this particular developer at this time….

Or give them way less

parking and therefore way less occupancy.”

Mayor Mike Amyx voted against the new parking plan. Amyx said he wanted to recommend developers be authorized Please see PARKING, page 5A

“You’ve got the power to pass a policy if you want to, but it’s going to subject you to the potential of litigation,” David Cunningham, director of human resources and legal services for the district, said at a policy meeting Tuesday.

DALLAS K. MURPHY Funeral services for Dallas K. Murphy, 82, Lawrence, are pending with Rumsey­Yost. Dallas died Tue., Apr. 5, 2016, at LMH. rumsey­yost.com

VAL HOUSTON SMITH Val Houston Smith, professor at the University of Kansas for 23 years, passed away April 2 at his home in Lawrence. He was 65.

Memorial visitation for Dr. Smith will be held from 6:00 – 8:00 p.m.

April 9, 2016 at Warren­ McElwain Mortuary in Lawrence.

Val was born in 1950 in Lubbock, Texas, the son of Fray and Marcia (Dunn) Smith. He met his wife of 43 years, Marilyn Smith, on the KU campus.

High taxes could cause racetrack to close Topeka — A Topeka racetrack owner doubts his property will survive if the property tax bill remains high, saying that the facility faces “hundreds of thousands of dollars” in repairs.

Owner Chris Payne declined an interview with The Topeka CapitalJournal, but instead relayed information through his attorney, Wes Carrillo. He said Heartland Park Topeka

They may not have won it all, but Bell’s and Robinson’s performance marked several national firsts.

“They are the first team not ranked in the top 16 going into the tournament to make it to the final round since rankings began in 1973; they are only the second team of two nonmales to debate in the final round, and Quaram is the first black woman to ever compete in the final round,” assistant KU debate coach Sean Kennedy said in an announcement from KU. The Bell-Robinson team — which entered this year’s tournament as the 17th-ranked team in the country — was the 15th KU team to advance to the Final Four of the National Debate Tournament and the sixth KU team to reach the championship debate, according to KU.

has deteriorated quickly in the last few years and now has cracked tracks, broken water pipes, perforated roofs and piles of garbage.

Payne estimated that Heartland Park would need to net a profit of $27,000 monthly, or $324,000 yearly. He says that with an annual tax bill of nearly $342,000, he believes the operating cost will surpass the park’s revenue.

Robinson also was named the sixth-best individual speaker at the tournament.

“Quaram and Sion had an amazing tournament with six wins over teams ranked in the top 10,” Scott Harris, KU debate director, said in an announcement. “Making it to the final round was a testament to their talent and hard work.”

A second KU team — Chris Carey, senior from Westwood Hills, and Amit Bhatla, junior from Lenexa — advanced beyond preliminary rounds at the National Debate Tournament but fell to a team from Berkeley in the first elimination rounds, according to KU. It was also announced during the tournament that KU will — for the first time — host next year’s National Debate Tournament, set for March 23-27, 2017.

Bell and Robinson were traveling back to Lawrence from New York on Tuesday and could not be reached for comment.

my personal belief,” said Kimball, who previously worked as an attorney on school issues. “But I don’t think we have a lot of support in the case law to go real far in a policy.”

Three Free State High School students — Abena Peasah, Seamus Ryan and Maame Britwum — attended a school board meeting in March and submitted the student petition, which had hundreds of signatures in support of creating a ban.

At the heart of the debate is the balance between students’ freedom of expression and their right to a school environment free from harassment and discrimination. Though recognizing the importance of such a balance, the students ask how the district can prohibit some forms expression but not others.

“We fail to see how we can have a ban on gang symbols, but not on those of white supremacy,” Peasah told the board when presenting the petition.

Many districts, Lawrence included, prohibit gang-related clothing and

symbols because they threaten the safety or wellbeing of students. The students are arguing that under that same reasoning, the district should also be able to ban the Confederate flag. Cunningham didn’t necessarily disagree.

“Frankly, I think students brought forth a pretty reasonable question: How can you prevent gang apparel and not this flag?”

Cunningham said.

The student petition followed an incident in January in which a Free State student flew a full-sized Confederate flag from his pickup truck that he parked on school grounds.

Some students were upset by the flag, which was displayed from its makeshift flagpole for several days before school administration told the student he could no longer display it.

The reason that the student was not allowed to fly the flag was not because of any school rule or district policy that specifically prohibits the flag, but instead because administrators decided it was disrupting the learning environment.

Instead of creating a specific policy banning the flag, Cunningham suggested that amendments could be made to the district’s cur-

L awrence J ournal -W orld rent discrimination and harassment policy. The policy currently bans written, verbal or physical discrimination and harassment, and Cunningham said that definition could be expanded to include symbols.

“If you have the means of controlling disruptive behavior through other policies that don’t get you into court, it might be better to utilize those policies and empower your principals to address these issues in that fashion,” he said.

Though wary that banning the flag could lead to litigation, the committee was still not ruling out any possibilities. The committee plans to meet with students at Free State to discuss the topic. Sanburn said she had not made up her mind about the best way to proceed and would like to take the students’ views into account when making a decision.

“I think that hearing from them and discussing it will be helpful,” she said.

The committee will meet with students on April 29 to have an informal discussion about the flag and potential policy changes.

Funding CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A

and it has threatened to close public schools if lawmakers fail to pass a constitutional funding system by July 1.

Before adjourning for their five-week spring break, lawmakers passed a bill that they hope addresses the court’s concerns. Gov. Sam Brownback has until Friday to sign the bill, after which it will be sent to the Supreme Court for review.

“I anticipate he’ll sign it this week,” Ryckman said.

Meanwhile, the new long-term funding bill, known as the School District Finance and Student Success Act, was introduced March 23, the day before lawmakers adjourned. And while some of the concepts in that bill might sound familiar to some, the overall philosophy behind it would mark a major departure from any earlier funding system.

Ryckman said the bill was mainly the work of the Legislature’s two Education Committee chairmen, Sen. Steve Abrams of Arkansas City and Rep. Ron Highland of Wamego.

The major difference between the new bill and previous funding systems lies in what the bill does and doesn’t pay for.

“The legislature hereby declares that it is the purpose and intent of this act to provide for the financing of instruction through the public education system for grades kindergarten through 12 in this state,” the bill states in its preamble.

It goes on to define “instruction” as “those school district functions that directly impact the provision of education services.” It specifically excludes such things as extracurricular activities, food service, central office administration, capital improvements, construction and remodeling, and facility maintenance, functions that school districts would be responsible for financing themselves.

“This would be a significant change in not just a formula, but in what we expect schools to do and

how to fund them. And it’s important that Kansans need to know and be thinking about this,” said Mark Tallman, a lobbyist for the Kansas Association of School Boards.

The 95-page bill contains dozens of sections dealing with a wide range of funding issues.

Some of the central elements include: l A single pot of state funding called “enrollment state aid” that would replace the two pots of money that districts have grown accustomed to: general state aid and supplemental aid, also known as local option budgets. l A per-pupil formula for enrollment state aid that would vary by the size of the school district: $8,490 per student for small districts with fewer than 400 students; $7,269 per student for districts with enrollment between 400 and 999 students; and $6,137 per student for districts with 1,000 or more students. l Specific mandates on how that money would be divided among instructional costs, student support services and other operational expenses. l Limited “weighting” factors that would provide additional funding for students deemed more expensive to teach, including those from lower income households and non-English-speaking families. l A two-year “holdharmless” provision that would prevent any district from losing funding for the first two years, although districts would first have to show that they’ve spent down excess fund balances and realized other kinds of savings. l A uniform statewide property tax levy of 35 mills to replace the current 20-mill levy, plus additional levies districts charge for their local option budgets. l Authority for districts to levy additional taxes, with no limit, for up to five years, subject to voter approval, with a strict prohibition that says that money could not be used for instruction, and only be used for things like extracurricular activities, food service

and other noninstruction expenses. l Incentive payments, or “success grants,” for districts that meet certain benchmarks on graduation rates, post-secondary retention rates, number of students needing college remedial courses and other factors. l A uniform, statewide health benefits plan for school employees, similar to the State Employee Health Plan, that would only offer participants a high-deductible health policy coupled with a health savings account. l A voucher program, known as the Education Freedom Act, that would allow up to 70 percent of the state aid attributed to a student to be used to pay tuition at a private or parochial school.

According to an analysis by the Kansas Association of School Boards, the result would be an increase in general state aid to school districts, but there would also be significant new limits on how districts could manage their operations.

Tallman said he thinks it’s unlikely that the Legislature would try to pass the bill in the few days or weeks remaining in the 2016 session, but he does think it will frame future discussions about school finance.

“In the short term, it’s what people are going to be talking about because it’s the only thing that’s out there,” he said.

“While I think it would be surprising to move this quickly, we think we need to be ready. But more important, I just think this really raises issues that, frankly, Kansans need to be talking about.”

If the bill is not acted upon this year, it would have to be reintroduced in the 2017 session.

Ryckman, however, said he wants to start the discussion this year anyway, even if it is unlikely to pass this year.

“The amount of work and effort and data that go into this could be carried forward into next year,” he said. “It’s still a conversation starter.”

“I look at this as a long-term commitment for this council to continually review the Douglas County criminal justice system,” the Douglas County Commission chairman said.

“That’s the long-term objective. We have some things that are pending we think this council’s scrutiny will help us with right now.”

Those, of course, are the creation of the mental health court, building of a mental health crisis center and the remodeling and expansion of the Douglas County Jail.

I’m not sure I ever quite got to that point at Lawrence’s Panda Garden restaurant, and now we have little time left to get there. After 30 years in business, Panda Garden is closing at the end of the month.

I have been very emotional. We’ve had such a good run. We have so many, many, many loyal friends that have come from this business.”

time discussing the decision to close Panda Garden after three decades in business.

“I have been very emotional,” White said. “We’ve had such a good run. We have so many, many, many loyal

friends that have come from this business.”

White came to America from Taiwan more than 30 years ago. Eventually, she would bring her family members to America. Brothers, a sister and other relatives of White’s all work at the business, and also used to work at the Plum Tree, a restaurant on south Iowa Street that the family also operated until it closed in 2008.

She is an inaugural fellow of the National League for Nursing’s Academy of Nursing Education, the author of three books and 60 professional articles, and has been awarded 42 of 44 grant proposals, averaging $263,000 each.

a measure establishing a two-year term of office for the president and — to ensure continuity of leadership — an initial one-year term for vice president, which would become two years thereafter.

Generating more comment was the suggestion that a direction in the bylaws requiring the Coordinating Council identify potential gaps or deficiencies in the criminal justice system be modified. The additional language proposed would have it examine why there is a high representation of people of color involved with the county’s criminal justice system and incarcerated in the jail. Although it was agreed that this was an appropriate task for the council, some members wondered if the language should be broader to include all those of low economic status, who account for an even larger percentage of the jail’s population.

It was agreed Douglas County Administrator Craig Weinaug would work on the wording of those three items and share them with members via email before the next meeting.

There were a number of things Flory said he wasn’t able to address in the 90-minute meeting that he hoped the Coordinating Council would consider at its next meet-

That kind of batting average over a career will get a player into the Baseball Hall of Fame. It gave Sauer a new lease on life and a laundry list of new friends.

From fighting to honor his late parents to the incredible fortune of having both of his brothers, Stan and Ted, be perfect matches for the stem cell transplant that saved his life, Sauer leaned on everyone from his grandchildren to his wife and children and everyone in between.

It was Stan who stepped up most, offering, without hesitation, to do whatever was needed to save his brother’s life.

He later was rewarded by Sauer — after thousands of thank-yous, hugs and tears — with a memorable day in a suite at a Royals game.

“He was going to do it no matter what,” Sauer says of Stan’s role

In the past three years, Sauer went through 32 sessions of chemotherapy, five spinal taps, two bone marrow biopsies and swallowed roughly 18,000 pills — 52 a day for one six-month period — almost all of them washed down with cinnamon applesauce.

Sauer said he felt his parents with him every step of the way and was hell-bent on winning his fight to honor their memory. There also were people outside of the family who helped Sauer win his battle with cancer.

Two Kansas University juniors have won prestigious Barry M. Goldwater scholarships, KU announced Tuesday.

Annie Lynn, Overland Park, and Kevin Tenny, Leawood, are the 59th and 60th KU Lynn students to earn Goldwater scholarships since Congress established the program — aimed at ensuring a Tenny continuing source of scientists, mathematicians and engineers — in 1986, according to KU. The scholarship provides up to $7,500 annually.

Lynn is working with other researchers in hopes of finding a vaccine for hepatitis C, and Tenny is pursuing research in creating more efficient electricity systems, according to KU.

Victim identified in East Lawrence fire Investigators have identified the man killed in a Thursday house fire in East Lawrence as Joe Dotson, 61, Lawrence-Douglas County Fire Medical Division Chief Eve Tolefree said in a release.

Emergency responders were dispatched at 2:49 p.m. Thursday to 923 Pennsylvania St., where they found a man — later identified as Dotson — partially inside the house, Tolefree said Thursday. Dotson was pulled away from the fire but was declared dead shortly afterward, she said.

The cause of the fire is still under investigation.

The Coordinating Council’s first meeting came five days after members of Justice Matters voted to recommend that the county ensure that safe alternatives to incarceration would be considered before a jail expansion plan is brought before the voters.

Ben MacConnell, Justice Matters lead organizer, said 92 percent of the 425 members in attendance at the March 31 meeting voted in favor of that position.

Flory noted the county and its stakeholders have been exploring issues involved with the county criminal justice system for nearly two years. The information collected from that effort would be presented to the Coordinating Council for review. He said he saw no conflict between Justice Matters’ position and the County Commission’s charge to the Coordinating Council.

It is to verify we are moving in the right direction, what modifications we might need to make or if we’ve missed something.”

One goal for the next meeting is that subcommittees, which could include members outside the Coordinating Council, be established to study and review the jail, crisis center and mental health intervention center proposals, Flory said.

The County Commission has linked modifications and expansion of the jail with building a crisis intervention center and creating a mental health court. Although nothing has been approved, the county has received plans from Treanor Architects for a $30 million expansion and remodeling of the jail, and the firm is working on plans for a crisis intervention center that would be built on West Second Street north of Bert Nash Community Mental Health Center, 200 Maine St.

Exhibit, events explore 500 years of Latino American history

By Joanna Hlavacek Twitter: @HlavacekJoanna

In spring 1541, not even 50 years after Christopher Columbus sailed the ocean blue and “discovered” the New World, Spanish conquistador Francisco Vázquez de Coronado led a troupe of soldiers, priests and Native American allies into the Great Plains.

They were in search of the mythical Seven Cities of Gold. Instead of riches, Coronado and his men found winding rivers and fertile soil in the indigenous settlements of central Kansas.

The area, later named Quivira by Coronado, and the explorer’s lasting legacy in the Sunflower

Parking

State, is the subject of a new exhibit opening at 5:30 p.m. today at Kansas University’s Watson Library, 1425 Jayhawk Blvd.

“It was the very first European exploration of the territory. This was way before the Louisiana Purchase,” says Betsaida Reyes, Kansas University’s librarian for Spanish, Portuguese, Latin American and Caribbean Studies, and the exhibit’s curator.

A keynote address by University of Arkansas associate professor Yajaira Padilla at 6:30 p.m. today in Watson Library will kick off a month-long series of public events surrounding the history of Latino Americans in the Heartland.

The project, dubbed “Latino Americans: 500

Years of History,” is funded by a grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities and American Library Association. KU’s Center for Latin American and Caribbean Studies has partnered with KU Libraries, the Tonantzin Society of Topeka and the Lawrence Public Library in organizing the free events, which include lectures, an educators’ workshop slated for this summer and screenings of the 2013 PBS documentary that inspired — and shares its name with — the programming.

Comprising interview with nearly 100 Latinos and more than 500 years of history, the documentary sheds light on an American experience

to have only the number of spaces in the parking garage that would fit when spaced wide enough to meet city code. Under the developers’ proposal approved Tuesday, spaces range from 7.6 to 8 feet wide, and city development code requires them to be 8.5 feet.

Numbers provided to the City Commission last week showed only 218 vehicles could fit in the parking deck under city code — meaning developers would be able to fill only 215 bedrooms, or 34 percent of the 624-bedroom apartment structure.

Amyx said the project should remain “code compliant.” He said he would have recommended an amendment to city code allowing valet parking and setting standards that HERE Kansas would have had to follow.

“All I want to be able to do is follow the code,” Amyx said. “I think we need to get it done and keep you code-compliant throughout this entire process.”

But, after Markus said the project should not be tied up by a change to city law, commissioners voted to approve the valet parking proposal. With the approval, developers can fill 548 bedrooms and all of the structure’s 13,500 square feet of restaurant and retail space.

James Letchinger, president of JDL Development — the group behind HERE — said about 350 apartments have been leased so far. About 90 percent of those future residents have “expressed interest” in leasing parking spaces, which are approximately $50 to $60 per month and auxiliary to the apartment leases.

Letchinger said that the parking system at HERE did not meet city code when it was first approved in 2014. At the time, Letch-

The Lawrence City Commission voted unanimously Tuesday to create a subcommittee comprised of commissioners Lisa Larsen and Matthew Herbert to decide how mayoral terms will run from now on. Because a new state law moved city elections from April of odd years to November of odd years, the commission needs to decide whether its tradition of electing a mayor every April should stand.

The city attorney is recommending the mayoral election fall in line with the change, meaning a new mayor would be seated the second week of January, when new

commissions will start.

The change could mean one commissioner could get a longer-than-normal mayoral term. Herbert and Larsen will decide if it should be current Mayor Mike Amyx or Vice Mayor Leslie Soden.

Herbert and Larsen were chosen for the subcommittee because, based on how mayors are traditionally selected, neither is likely to hold that title before their terms end in 2017.

Herbert’s and Larsen’s recommendation will be brought before the City Commission in three to four weeks, they estimated.

inger had hired Boomerang Systems LLC to build a robotic parking garage on site. The company went bankrupt in October, triggering the need for developers to arrange a new parking system.

“This project previously received unanimous approval from this commission, and it never provided for cars to be parked to code,” Letchinger said. “If there was a time to contest that parking, that was the time to do so.”

Tuesday’s approval came with several conditions, including that the City Commission receive a quarterly report on the development’s parking throughout the life of the project.

Commissioners also voted 5-0 to execute a new agreement with HERE Kansas, in part saying that developers secure the total number of parking spaces required to fill the entire development before they would receive tax rebates from the city. With the 510 valet spaces and 108 on-street spaces approved Tuesday, developers are 67 short of that mandate.

Letchinger said he was “days away” from announcing a parking solu-

tion that would create at least 69 more spaces.

Commissioners also voted unanimously Tuesday to establish the parking fees and fines for the development’s 108 on-street spaces.

The fees were set at $1.50 per hour from 9:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Saturday, and the fine for violating the metered parking was set at $15.

Under an agreement between the city, KU and HERE Kansas, developers receive the parking fees.

The city collects the fines and is responsible for enforcement.

After Vice Mayor Leslie Soden said last week that it was a “terrible decision” to let developers keep the meter revenue, Letchinger said Tuesday that HERE would donate $100,000 of that revenue to the city every year, in perpetuity.

Though developers suggested it go to the Affordable Housing Trust Fund, commissioners voted Tuesday that — because it’s parking revenue — the donation would go into the parking fund.

that has often been overlooked, misunderstood or unfairly politicized, says Danika Swanson, CLACS education program specialist and outreach coordinator. She hopes “500 Years” will do the same, particularly for Latinos in Kansas.

“I think people hear these conversations about Latino Americans and these debates about immigration and think it’s all about other places, but this is also a part of the story of Kansas,” Swanson says.

“There’s a vibrant and diverse Latino community here, and we’re hoping to showcase how they came here and what they have contributed to our economy and culture and communities.”

Snowbirds can visit — and stay at a hotel Dear Annie: We’re in a pickle. We’ve spent the past winter in a wonderful retirement area. We’ve gone out to dinner with some neighbors and had a nice time. Now that it’s time to head home, two couples talk constantly about traveling our way this summer, staying with us while they see the sights of our city.

Annie, we like these couples, but our lives are very different. For starters, we are vegans and they are not. Just having them for meals in our house would be difficult.

We have hinted that we have a lot to do when we get home and are not sure when we would be available, but it hasn’t stopped them from assuming they are welcome.

Whatever happened to waiting to be invited?

Is it because these retired couples have no set schedule and love to visit people? Why do they ex-

Of Vikings and satellite technology Who knew that when mankind ventured into space, we could find ... Vikings? It may sound like science fiction. But it has happened. And it represents a new chapter in the history of the New World.

Co-produced with the BBC, the two-hour “NOVA” (8 p.m., PBS, TV-PG, check local listings) presentation of “Vikings Unearthed” explores the history and legends of Scandinavian seafarers whose travels took them to Europe and Asia, and westward to Iceland, Greenland and North America.

Fans of the History Channel’s epic drama “Vikings” know they ravaged the coasts of England and Ireland and violently besieged Paris. Tonight’s “NOVA” looks at the discovery of a previously unknown Viking settlement at Point Rosee, located in southern Newfoundland. The only previously known North American Viking site, L’Anse aux Meadows, was found in 1960 on the very northern tip of Newfoundland.

Point Rosee was discovered by something known as “space archaeology.” Scientists used remote photography to detect patterns of iron ore. Buried under centuries of sediment and vegetation, these signs of human habitation were invisible to the human eye, but detectable via high-resolution imagery from satellites positioned approximately 478 miles above the Earth.

“Unearthed” will use historical re-enactments, employing an exact replica of an 11th-century Viking vessel, as well as CGI renderings, to show how the Vikings mastered shipbuilding and the ability to cross oceans at a time when other seafaring societies barely left their home shores.

O The Smithsonian Channel has promised to go “wild.” Over the next seven Wednesday nights it will celebrate filmmaker and naturalist David Attenborough’s 90th birthday in a programming event known as “Wild With Sir David Attenborough.” First up, “Conquest of the Skies” (7 p.m.) explores the evolution of flying creatures, from winged dinosaurs to the bats, birds and bugs we know today.

Local control Improving a law that imposes a property tax lid on local governments is a good step, but leaving local tax decisions to local officials would be even better.

A

proposed compromise improves a law that imposes a property tax lid on local governments across Kansas but it doesn’t erase the fact that state legislators are tampering with decisions that would be better left to local elected officials.

The bill passed last year forces city and county governments to hold an election to seek approval of any property tax increase that exceeds the rate of inflation. The law was pushed hard by the Kansas Association of Realtors, which sought this year to move its effective date up by one year. When the issue was reopened, local governments called for other changes to the law.

On its face the law would appeal to local taxpayers who are concerned about rising property taxes, but it has some problems. For instance, it makes no allowance for increases in property value, even those that result from growth and new construction. The compromise bill makes positive changes by allowing some kinds of property tax growth to occur without counting it against the inflationbased cap. Those would include new revenue that results from construction or renovation of property, new taxes raised to fund public safety functions and new tax revenue from companies whose property tax abatements expire.

A representative of the Realtors group told the Journal-World last week that he thought the compromise satisfied most local government concerns, but conceded that, although the League of Kansas Municipalities and the Kansas Association of Counties saw the compromise as a step in the right direction, they still don’t like the whole concept of a state-mandated property tax lid.

There are good reasons for that. Local voters elect city and county commissioners to make spending decisions on their behalf. If they don’t like the decisions that are being made, they can provide feedback during budget hearings and, of course, choose to elect new commissioners whom they think will make better decisions.

The new law would place an arbitrary standard that may not allow local commissioners to meet the needs and wants of their constituents. They will have to spend additional time to make sure they are complying with the cap and, if they see a need to exceed the cap, local taxpayers will have to bear the expense of an election to approve that action.

Most of all, the new law presumes that state officials are more qualified to control local spending than the officials that are elected specifically for that job.

Lawrence officials are not the only ones to point out that state officials “cry foul when the federal government tries to interfere with states’ rights” but nonetheless see fit to infringe on local governments’ control of local tax dollars.

It’s also worth noting that a number of state policy decisions have pushed additional responsibilities onto local governments. The decline in state support for state and community mental health services, for instance, increases the need for services like the mental health crisis center now being considered by Douglas County.

Once the people pushing the property tax lid finally listened to the officials who would be most affected by this bill, they could see that changes needed to occur. It’s good that they made some changes. Even better would be for them to recognize than local officials are better qualified that state legislators to make local spending decisions.

Election could stall energy progress Washington — So much of America’s future is at stake in the 2016 presidential election.

But let’s focus for a moment on just one area — energy and the environment — where the Obama administration has made startling progress that could be reversed if either of the GOP front-runners becomes president.

Energy Secretary Ernie Moniz, arguably President Obama’s best Cabinet appointment, has been leading a quiet revolution in clean-energy technology. Innovation is transforming this industry, costs are plummeting, and entrepreneurs are devising radical new systems that create American jobs — in addition to protecting the planet.

The leading GOP candidates, Donald Trump and Ted Cruz, offer know-nothing denials of this march of science. Trump told the Washington Post last month that all that’s happening is “a change in weather. I’m not a great believer in manmade climate change.” Cruz told an audience in New Hampshire in January that “climate change is the perfect pseudoscientific theory,” propounded by “big-government politician(s).” If either is elected president, you have to assume he will try to gut clean-energy programs.

Here’s a suggestion for any fact-based, technologyrespecting candidate in either party: Promise that, if elected, you’ll try to persuade Moniz to remain in

“

An MIT physicist by training, he has proved to be one of this administration’s most skillful players, as illustrated by his decisive, behind-the-scenes role in the Iran nuclear talks.

Moniz showed me the future of energy technology last month during a visit to one of his pet projects — the “innovation summit” of the Advanced Research Projects Agency-Energy, or “ARPAE,” for short. As the name implies, it tries to do for energy what DARPA has done for defense science. A tour of the exhibits shows why the program is succeeding: It connects with the market.

Since 2010, 45 projects that

were initially ARPA-E seeded have received an additional $1.25 billion in followon private funding.

First, some Energy Department numbers that illustrate the transformation that’s underway: The cost of purchasing energy-efficient LED lights has dropped 90 percent since 2008; the cost of producing large-scale solar energy has fallen 60 percent over that period; prices for wind energy and efficient batteries have declined by over 40 percent.

As costs have fallen, usage has increased radically. Since 2008, the number of LED light bulbs installed in the U.S. has increased from 400,000 to 78 million. Wind energy production has tripled; production of solar energy has increased nearly 20-fold. And scientists say we’re still fairly early in the cycle of innovation and cost reduction.

Moniz describes three ARPA-E projects he thinks are especially promising. One company is building an advanced photovoltaic cell that could, by 2020, reduce the cost of installed solar energy by 50 percent from its 2009 level. Another company is creating new systems that could significantly cut power use by electric motors, which currently consume about 30 percent of America’s electricity. A third company is building a new kind of airborne turbine that could capture enough wind energy to serve 85 percent of America’s land

mass, compared with 15 percent today.

Wandering through the ARPA-E exhibition hall with Moniz — looking at a few of the more than 200 presentations — you get a sense of how fast new technology is being applied to big, realworld problems.

This intense interaction between technology and the marketplace is what powers innovation in America. Contrary to right-wing myth, the government in modern times has been a key incubator and facilitator for business. DARPA’s research spawned the Internet and its world-transforming networks, and it’s now helping to drive the astonishing progress of machine learning and autonomous systems. Thanks to Moniz, ARPA-E is having a similar catalytic effect with energyrelated technologies.

This political season has been a horror show, making even those who are optimistic about America’s future begin to wonder. A visit to Moniz’s innovation summit was a bracing reminder of why, as Warren Buffett likes to say, people have never gone wrong betting on America. It also illustrates the importance of having world-class scientists like Moniz oversee the intersection of government and technology.

OLD HOME TOWN

100

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for April 6, 1916: “Fifteen young men in a co-operative boarding club years at the University of Kansas ago have cut the cost of living IN 1916 to a minimum through hard work and rigid economy. The boys claim they live on 22 cents a day for each man. Each man cooks his own breakfast, it was stated, but one of the members of the club acts as cook for dinner and supper and for his work he receives his board free. … At the beginning of the fall term of the school fifteen young men paid in $3 each for the purchase of furniture and necessary dishes… All the members of the club are required to do their share of the house work…”

World faces new nuclear arms race

By Doyle McManus Los Angeles Times

Former Defense Secretary William J. Perry, one of the nation’s wise men on national security, delivered an arresting message last week: We’re about to find ourselves in a new nuclear arms race.

“The danger of a nuclear catastrophe today is greater than during the Cold War,” Perry said.

The danger stems not only from terrorist groups like Islamic State, which would gladly steal or buy nuclear material on the black market, but also from the huge nuclear arsenals the United States, Russia and other big powers maintain more than 20 years after the end of the Cold War. Those nuclear forces are bigger than they need to be — almost 16,000 warheads in all. And they still include hundreds of missiles on hair-trigger alert.

“We’ve avoided a catastrophe more by good luck than by good management,” Perry told a meeting at the Atlantic Council, a nonpartisan think tank.

In 2007, Perry joined with former Sen. Sam Nunn and former Secretaries of State Henry A. Kissinger and George P. Shultz — two Democrats, two Republicans — to urge that the U.S. make the abolition of nuclear weapons a formal goal. President Obama embraced the idea, negotiating a treaty with Russia to cut both countries’ arsenals.

But since that 2010 pact, progress toward nuclear disarmament has virtually stopped. Both Russia and the U.S. have launched expensive plans to modernize their nuclear forces, reaffirming the weapons’ central role in national security. In Obama’s case, the modernization program, which will cost an estimated $355 billion over 10 years, was the price of winning Republican votes in the Sen-

“

ate to ratify the 2010 treaty.

As Russia builds new weapons, Perry said, “I have no doubt that the United States will follow suit.”

So Perry is trying to revive a proposal that a handful of arms control advocates have floated in previous years: The U.S. should eliminate all of its 400-plus land-based nuclear missiles.

For decades, U.S. nuclear strategy has relied on a “triad” of weapons platforms: land-based missiles or ICBMs, manned bombers and submarines.

The basic idea was redundancy: If one system was knocked out by an enemy, the others would still be available.

Over the years, however, U.S. nuclear submarines have become virtually undetectable. Stealth bombers are difficult for opponents to find, as well.

The land-based missiles, by contrast, are more vulnerable. They’re stuck in one place. Their locations are known to the Russians and other potential enemies.

That means they face a dilemma known as “use it or lose it.” If an apparent attack against U.S. missile bases is detected, officials will have only a few minutes to decide whether to launch the missiles in response, or lose them.

And that makes them susceptible to false alarms — which actually occurred several times in both the U.S.

and Russia during the Cold War. (Luckily, officers realized that their radar was malfunctioning.)

That vulnerability is still there. “The way to solve it is simply to eliminate the ICBMs,” Perry said.

It’s an unorthodox suggestion, and there are counter-arguments, of course — mainly that ICBMs provide insurance if an adversary somehow knocked out every submarine and every bomber.

But the doctrine sometimes sounds more like force of habit.

“It has worked for us for decades,” Air Force Secretary Deborah James told a congressional committee last month.

“The ICBMs are considered responsive, the sea-launched are considered survivable, and the bombers … are flexible.”

I think Perry has the better argument.

The case for keeping land-based missiles is weak. The danger they present is real.

But what I’d mostly like to see is a serious debate on these issues among the candidates for president.

Sen. Bernie Sanders has said he thinks the modernization plan is a waste of money. Hillary Clinton has suggested that she’s worried about the cost, but hasn’t taken a firm position. Sen. Ted Cruz has said he wants to spend more money on defense, including nuclear weapons.

And Donald Trump? When conservative radio host Hugh Hewitt asked Trump for his position on the nuclear triad last year, the businessman was flummoxed.

“For me, nuclear is just the power,” Trump replied. “The devastation is very important to me.”

We deserve better answers. It’s a matter of survival.

Bernie Sanders prevailed in Wisconsin’s Democratic primary Tuesday, continuing his win streak over Hillary Clinton.

In a victory speech from Wyoming — which holds a caucus on Saturday — Sanders claimed momentum and argued he is a stronger general election candidate than Clinton.

“We are defeating Donald Trump by very significant numbers,” Sanders said of the Republican front-runner, before taking aim at the billionaire class, the

fossil fuel industry and super PACs. Clinton tweeted congratulations to Sanders, adding “to all the voters and volunteers who poured your hearts into this campaign: Forward!”

With his win in the Badger State, Sanders has pocketed six of the past seven contests, even though he’s barely denting Clinton’s sizable delegate lead.

Earlier Tuesday, his campaign manager, Jeff Weaver, says his streak is proof the candidate can still close the gap in pledged delegates, which stood at 263 entering Tuesday’s primary, according to the Associated Press. v STORY CONTINUES ON 2B

Ban on meldonium divides anti-doping community Evidence doesn’t show drug actually helps athletes perform, yet many of them still use it

Rachel Axon

@RachelAxon USA TODAY Sports

Maria Sharapova is the most noteworthy athlete to have failed a drug test for meldonium. But in the month since the tennis star revealed her use of a drug she contends is for medical reasons, a slew of other top athletes have been implicated.

They include fellow Russians Yuliya Efimova, a four-time breaststroke world champion, and Nikolai Kuksenkov, the country’s best male gymnast. In all, 140 athletes have tested positive for meldonium in the three months after it was banned Jan. 1, according to a World Anti-Doping Agency spokesman.

But as the tally of failed tests is increasing, critics are raising questions about whether meldonium enhances performance and

how WADA could ban the drug with what they say is relatively little scientific evidence.

“There’s really no evidence that there’s any performance enhancement from meldonium. Zero,” said Don Catlin, a longtime anti-doping expert and the scientific director of the Banned Substances Control Group.

Those supporting meldonium’s ban point to its potential to en-

hance performance and measures of its use by athletes, both before and since the ban.

Those questions highlight a difficult position for WADA. With scant existing research, how does it know meldonium enhances performance? Does it need to ban a drug such as meldonium before it understands its benefits and potential harms because it sees athletes using the drug? And if it’s not enhancing performance, why are a large number of seemingly healthy athletes taking a drug used to treat patients with heart problems?

In Iceland, ire over banks fueled prime minister’s exit Nathan Bomey @NathanBomey USA TODAY

Surging discontent in Iceland over Prime Minister Sigmundur Gunnlaugsson’s failure to disclose personal investments in the country’s banks drew fuel from lingering disgust over the banks’ behavior leading up to their collapse during 2008’s global financial crisis.

In a nation where bankers have gone to prison for their actions during the crisis, it should come as little surprise that Sunday’s explosive Panama Papers leak sparked an eruption of antipathy

toward Gunnlaugsson, who stepped aside as prime minister Tuesday amid a furor over his investment.

Gunnlaugsson faced a vote of no-confidence in parliament after the Panama Papers, leaked law firm documents obtained by the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists, revealed that Gunnlaugsson and his wife held about $4 million in bonds in three Icelandic banks through a hidden British Virgin Islands shell company, Wintris.

Those banks collapsed in October 2008. Gunnlaugsson sold his 50% stake in Wintris to his wife in 2009 for $1. Wintris continues

to hold substantial interest in those bonds after a deal that Gunnlaugsson’s government reached in 2015 with the bank’s creditors, which a watchdog group Gunnlaugsson led before

becoming prime minister “criticized as too generous,” according to the ICIJ. Monday, thousands of Icelanders protested outside parliament in Reykjavik, angry that the prime minister negotiated with banks when he had a personal financial interest that had not been known.

That Gunnlaugsson was an anti-bank crusader in his rise to political power fanned the flame. He had pledged “to play hardball with foreign creditors, offer debt relief to struggling homeowners and end austerity programs,” according to the ICIJ. The anger stems from the implosion in 2008 of three banks —

institutions that had been transformed from state-owned institutions into privately controlled entities several years earlier, according to a report titled “Nordics In Global Crisis,” published by the Research Institute of the Finnish Economy.

Close ties between the Icelandic banks and politicians lingered, according to the report.

It blamed inadequate regulation for allowing the Icelandic banks to engage in the equivalent of risky subprime lending, taking out short-term loans to pay long-term debt and engaging in irresponsible international expansion.

Trump opponents try to deny him delegates v CONTINUED FROM 1B

Republican Party establishment in general.

“Ted Cruz is more than a puppet,” the statement said. “He is a Trojan horse, being used by the party bosses attempting to steal the nomination from Mr. Trump.”

The statement asserted, “We have total confidence the Mr. Trump will go on to win in New York,” which will host a primary April 19.

Cruz, Trump and Ohio Gov. John Kasich sought 42 Republican convention delegates available in Wisconsin. Precise allocations had yet to be determined Tuesday night.

Various anti-Trump organizations spent money in Wisconsin, seeing it as an opportunity to blunt the businessman’s momentum and make it harder for him to amass the 1,237 delegates he will need to claim the GOP presidential nomination.

Trump led the GOP race with

SCOTT OLSON, GETTY IMAGES

Donald Trump chats with patrons and workers at a diner after an interview with Fox News on Tuesday in Wauwatosa, Wis. 737 delegates as of Tuesday, according to the Associated Press, less than half the total won.

Cruz had 481 delegates, and Kasich had 143, while Marco Rubio

— who dropped out of the race last month — remained credited with 171 delegates.

Kasich chief strategist John Weaver issued a memo Tuesday

proclaiming the race “wide open,” and adding that this will be remembered as the week in which both Cruz and Trump “both effectively admitted they will not reach the GOP Convention with enough bound delegates to be the nominee.”

“There is going to be an open convention, and it’s going to be cool,” Kasich said this week on Fox News.

Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., a former foe who recently endorsed Cruz, tweeted, “Well done” to the Texas senator as the Wisconsin results rolled in, adding that “hopefully tonight is the turning point to deny” Trump the delegates he needs for nomination.

Trump came into the Wisconsin primary after one of the worst stretches of his campaign.

The New York businessman took criticism from members of both parties for comments suggesting that women should be punished for abortions — a position he then reversed — and

Race is likely to wrap up in June v CONTINUED FROM 1B

Weaver told CNN that he believes the battle will continue until the party’s nominating convention in July. Democratic strategists are more skeptical.

“He can assert it, but it seems extremely unlikely” that Sanders can catch Clinton, said Steve Elmendorf, deputy campaign manager for John Kerry’s 2004 Democratic presidential campaign. “The numbers don’t add up,” said Elmendorf, who supports Clinton but is not working for her.

Democrats do not award delegates on a winner-take-all basis, making it difficult for underdogs to overcome large deficits. Sanders would have to win big primary states by large margins in order to catch Clinton.

While the Vermont senator has won a number of smaller caucus states, Sanders has won only two primaries with more

than 60% support: his home state of Vermont and neighboring New Hampshire.

Polls show Clinton up by 10 points in the next major contest on the primary calendar: New York, which she represented for eight years in the U.S. Senate.

“Many would consider that an embarrassment for Hillary Clinton” if she didn’t win by a margin larger than that, said David Wasserman, an elections analyst at the non-partisan Cook Political Report. “And yet it would seal the deal even more for Hillary Clinton” because she would expand her delegate lead, he said.

Whatever the outcome in New York’s April 19 primary, the forecast remains the same: The race is likely to wrap up in June, when California votes.

Sanders is burrowing in for a floor fight. He’s suggesting that delegates from states he won should flip to his column, and

that the United States should pull back from military commitments to NATO and Asian allies such as Japan and South Korea.

A number of radio talk show hosts in Wisconsin spoke out against Trump during the primary.

Cruz jumped on Trump’s mistakes, saying he would be a “train wreck” nominee in the fall who could cost the Republicans control of the Senate and House.

Trump said “Lyin’ Ted” Cruz would lead the GOP to defeat in the fall.

The Republican front-runner began primary day in Wisconsin with an addendum to a longstanding proposal: building an anti-migration wall along the U.S.-Mexican border, to be financed by the Mexican government itself. Trump proposed to do that by pressuring Mexico via the denial of “remittances,” money that migrants in the USA send back to family members in their home countries.

Clinton is having to fight harder and longer than she’d planned to seal the nomination.

ANDREW RENNEISEN, GETTY IMAGES

Hillary Clinton greets the crowd following a Women for Hillary Town Hall meeting in New York on Tuesday. his campaign is approaching delegates to back the candidate.

As for the Clinton campaign, both the candidate and her staff are showing signs of irritation.

On Monday night, Clinton campaign manager Robby Mook released a memo titled “The Facts on Where the Race Stands.”

He writes Clinton has “built a nearly insurmountable lead among both delegates and actual voters.”

In a Tuesday town hall in Brooklyn, Clinton took some shots at Sanders, particularly on his plan to provide free college tuition and his 2005 vote to provide legal immunity for gun manufacturers. The Clinton campaign is betting that Sanders is especially vulnerable on the gun issue in New York, which tightened its laws in response to the 2012 Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting in

Newtown, Conn.

“We’re not going to quit, we’re going to keep going at this every chance we get,” Clinton said.

Clinton is having to fight harder and longer than she’d planned to seal the nomination.

Even as the campaign moves to New York, a state that she hoped to carry by a large margin, the race will be tight, said Dan Gerstein, director of Gotham Ghostwriters and an independent political analyst in New York City.

“It’s going to be a continuation of the more global dynamic,” Gerstein said.

Yet a closer-than-expected race does not translate into an upset, and Democrats are citing the 2008 Democratic race as proof that Clinton is not in any danger. It wasn’t until the final day of primaries that Obama gained enough pledged and superdelegates to become the nominee.

Tests show athletes use meldonium, hide it v CONTINUED FROM 1B

to enhance performance.

By October of that year, meldonium, which also goes by the brand name Mildronate, was on WADA’s monitoring list. In February 2015, scientists completed a study of global athlete usage of the drug.

In reviewing 8,320 urine samples, the study, which was funded by the Partnership for Clean Competition, found that 182 samples contained meldonium. At 2.2% of the sample, it was more than double the rate for any other drug on the list.

Results from the European Games in Baku, Azerbaijan, in June seemed to support concealed use of the drug. That research, published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine, showed positive tests for meldonium in 66 of 762 urine samples but said only 23 of the 662 athletes tested had declared their use of the drug.

Of the 662 doping-control forms the study reviewed, 525 declared the use of a medication or nutritional supplement. Use of meldonium was found in 15 of 21 sports, and the total count included 13 medalists.

While acknowledging evidence of meldonium’s performanceenhancing effects was limited, the study concluded that, because it was not being used primarily for therapeutic reasons, “(It was) evidently being used with the intention to either improve recovery or enhance performance.”

To be considered for WADA’s prohibited list, a substance must meet two of three criteria: It enhances or has the potential to enhance performance, it presents an actual or potential health risk or it violates the spirit of sport.

Once meldonium was up for consideration, WADA’s expert group could consider public discussion on the drug, information from medical literature and the availability of a test for the drug, among other factors.

WADA decided in September to ban the drug, and that went into effect Jan. 1. In its explanatory note, WADA wrote that it

Russian swimmer Yuliya Efimova is among the athletes who have tested positive for meldonium, which was banned Jan. 1. was banned because of evidence of use with the intention of enhancing performance.

Andrew Pipe, medical and scientific adviser to the Canadian Centre for Ethics in Sport, acknowledged there was little English-language literature available on meldonium, which was created in Latvia in the 1970s.

But Pipe defended its addition to the list, saying that, while he was not speaking for WADA, the committee did follow WADA’s process. In a statement, a WADA spokesman similarly noted that the agency followed its process in banning meldonium.

“If you have a substance that has a purported mechanism that is capable of enhancing performance, you have evidence it is being used by large numbers of athletes and you have evidence that it is used by a large number of athletes concealed, then I think you come to the conclusion that this is a substance that should be placed on the prohibited list,” said Pipe, who was chairman of the expert group at the time.

SEEKING EVIDENCE

Catlin and others question whether meldonium meets the basic criteria to be considered for the list. It’s not that it doesn’t enhance performance, Catlin said, it’s that there’s not research to show that.

IAN MACNICOL, GETTY IMAGES

Russian gymnast Nikolai Kuksenkov also failed a drug test.

“They have to try to show that it enhances performance, but by banning it they’ve already said it enhances performance, and that will make people turn to it,” Catlin said. “You can find that it has effects, but it’s difficult to link those to performance enhancement.

“I’ve tried and tried to figure out why so many athletes seem to be taking it.”

The drug works by shifting cells’ metabolism from fatty acids to carbohydrates for energy, a process that requires less oxygen.

A 2002 paper from researchers at Tbilisi State Medical University in Georgia found the drug had a positive effect on the physical working capacity of judokas, concluding it did not have side ef-

fects. Research presented in 2012 at the Baltic Sport Science Conference found much the same, noting it was not on the doping list.

Grindeks, the company that manufactures Mildronate, says it is not a performance-enhancing drug because it prevents the death of ischemic cells and does not increase performance of normal cells.

WADA does not have to prove a substance’s performance-enhancing effects, and athletes are not able to challenge a drug’s inclusion on the prohibited list.

Catlin contends WADA incorrectly used evidence of use as a criterion. While few question whether use of the drug violates the spirit of sport, the broadest of the three criteria, some question how much it meets the first two.

“If you take those criteria seriously, then you would think that substances need to be innocent before proven guilty,” said Roger Pielke Jr., a University of Colorado professor whose book The Edge: The War against Cheating and Corruption in the Cutthroat World of Elite Sports is due out this year. “You can just say here’s a substance, athletes are taking it, therefore we have suspicion that it has performance-enhancing effects. Your anti-doping list would expand very rapidly if any substance that is out there and you just add it to the list.

“If evidence is to matter, then the meldonium ban was put into place before that evidence became readily available.”

So what can be concluded from the high number of athletes using meldonium?

Catlin found little reason behind Sharapova’s explanations, which included a magnesium deficiency and a family history of diabetes, and suggested there was little to infer from the number of failed tests other than that many athletes used meldonium.

But others accept the conclusion from WADA — that its use is at least with the intent to enhance performance.

Victor Conte, founder of the Bay Area Laboratory Co-Operative (BALCO), said athletes’ use

of meldonium was an endorsement of its performance-enhancing effects.

“They know when it works.

When you take drugs, you know when you’re stronger, faster, have more endurance,” he said.

“Of course it works. Now is there a double-blind, placebocontrolled, crossover clinical trial with a sufficient total of subjects involved to be published in a credible scientific journal? No. But is there rampant use of it in Olympic sports? Yes.” Corrections & Clarifications USA TODAY is committed to accuracy.

SMUGGLERS LAMENT THE END OF MIGRANT FLOOD

DAN KITWOOD, GETTY IMAGES

Victor Kotsev and Gilgamesh Nabeel

New policy on Balkan route doesn’t eliminate dangers

A woman walks through thousands of discarded life vests, dumped near the town on March in Mytilene, Greece.

Abu Sami, an Iraqi living in Europe, made a good living smuggling Syrians and other refugees from Greece to Germany.

But his good fortune at the expense of migrants fleeing war and poverty is coming to an end now that Turkey has agreed to stop them from flooding into Europe.

“Business has decreased by more than 70%,” he said.

The new migrant policy under an agreement between the European Union and Turkey, which went into effect Monday, has largely shut off the Balkan route to Europe that 850,000 migrants took last year, according to the United Nations refugee agency.

In all, 1.1 million refugees entered Germany alone via that and other routes in 2015.

Few refugees would shed a tear for smugglers who exploit their plight for fat profits. Smugglers charge about $700 to help refugees travel the short but dangerous boat trip from Turkey to Greece’s Aegean islands, the clos-

est gateway to Europe. They charge 10 times as much to arrange the crossing from Greece to Italy to avoid Macedonia, Serbia and other countries that have closed their borders, according to Sami and other smugglers. Many often swindle or mistreat traumatized migrants.

“The journey was a nightmare,” said Clod Marion, 19, a Syrian in Germany who made a dash with her family from the Turkish coast to the Greek island of Lesbos in freezing weather in January. “We traveled in a small rubber boat. The smugglers threw us off the boat into the cold water when we approached the island.”

Abo Taem, a Syrian smuggler based in Turkey, said he and most of his fellow traffickers weren’t seeking to exploit anyone. Many of them had been refugees themselves and saw an opportunity to help other migrants and earn a living in the process. “My business partner was an Iraqi, and he

il war just across Turkey’s southern border.

Migrants fleeing war and violence are likely to receive asylum as refugees. Those seeking only economic opportunities likely will be sent back home.

As new arrivals to Greece’s Aegean islands slows, refugees stand to suffer more than the smugglers, some experts say.

“It’s more dangerous for asylum seekers in Turkey than in Greece,” said Shahram Khosravi, a migration expert at Stockholm University in Sweden. Many refugees won’t sit idle in Turkey, Khosravi said. “It’s just a matter of time before (smugglers) will find new ways to transport people.”

Abu Hassan, the administrator of a Facebook page dedicated to smuggling, said that’s already happening. “People are now traveling from Turkey to Libya by air and then to Italy by sea in a more expensive and more dangerous journey,” he said.

is currently in Denmark as a refugee,” Taem said.

Taem said business dropped off precipitously recently after Macedonia closed its borders, preventing refugees from traveling north and stranding them on the Greek side of the border. In Turkey, police are aggressively stopping travelers rather than let-

ting them pass through as before.

“A life jacket in the car would constitute good evidence for emigration detention,” Taem said.

“We cannot send people without such life jackets.”

The EU has promised Turkey $6.8 billion in aid to keep refugees there, where an estimated 2.7 million Syrians have fled a civ-

After Brussels, officials look to tighten airport, train security

IN BRIEF VILLARRICA VOLCANO STIRS

Plan would add officers and training Bart Jansen USA TODAY

Travelers would see tightened airport and train station security, including additional armed officers and better training for law enforcement, under a proposal endorsed by the secretary of Homeland Security on Tuesday as a result of the Brussels attacks.

Sen. Charles Schumer, D-N.Y., outlined the bid to nearly double the number of armed Transportation Security Administration teams that patrol airports, train stations and other transportation hubs.

Other steps would bolster security in unsecured parts of airports such as the check-in and baggage-claim areas and provide more grant funding to train lawenforcement officers to combat shooters. The proposals are part of Federal Aviation Administration legislation the Senate is debating this week.

“By clamping down against terror threats now, we can avoid the kind of tragedy and devastation that happened overseas,” Schumer told reporters at a news conference.

Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson said he called for a more visible presence of armed teams on May 22, the day of the Brussels attacks, and deployed more air marshals on flights.

“We know of no specific credible intel of a plot like the Brussels attack here in the homeland,” Johnson said. “However, we remain vigilant, concerned about potential acts of self-radicalized violence by the so-called lone actors here in this country at public places and at public events.”

Bombings at the Brussels Airport and a downtown subway station killed 32 people and injured at least 270. The Islamic State claimed responsibility for the attacks.

More than half of the 5.4 million people living in Scotland have no religion, according to a survey by Scottish Social Attitudes.

The 52% of unaffiliated Scots represents a 12% jump from 16 years ago, when 40% of survey respondents said they had no religious affiliation.

The proportion of people who

say they belong to the Church of Scotland — the Presbyterian Church that for so long dominated almost every aspect of life in that country — has fallen dramatically, to just 20%, down from 39% of the population in 1999.

— Trevor Grundy, Religion News Service EPA CHIEF DEFENDS ACTION ON FLINT WATER CRISIS

The head of the Environmental Protection Agency said Tuesday she wasn’t trying to deflect blame, but to “simply get all the facts on the table,” when she testified before Congress last month about the federal government’s role in Flint’s water crisis.

In a breakfast meeting with reporters Tuesday, EPA Administrator Gina McCarthy repeated her testimony that the primary responsibility for the crisis lies with the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality and Flint’s emergency manager.

“It was clearly Michigan and the emergency manager that made decisions that didn’t make sense,” she said.

That explanation didn’t fly with some Republican members of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee who called on McCarthy to step down when she testified before the panel March 17.

Proposed legislation would add patrols at transportation hubs.

cause they are open and easily accessible. Creating checkpoints at airport and train station doors would be costly and difficult, and terrorists could still attack wherever crowds gathered.

The Transportation Security Administration, part of Johnson’s department, tightened its screening after federal watchdogs found last year that officers had trouble detecting weapons during tests.

Travelers complained loudly

about longer security lines that resulted at airports nationwide.

Johnson said screening delays are partly the result of the growth in daily travelers from 1.8 million to 2.2 million. He also said he is trying to halt reductions in TSA officers as part of annual spending bills this year.

“We want to begin to build back that workforce,” Johnson said. “Wait times is something that I’m acutely aware of, but I believe we are addressing it.”

For example, TSA Administrator Peter Neffenger shifted canine teams between airports because the bomb-sniffing dogs can help screen passengers to move them through lines faster.

Sen. Amy Klobuchar, D-Minn., said the teams have cut waits in half at the Minneapolis airport, where they had stretched to an hour and a half at the busiest times.

Sen. Joe Manchin, D-W.Va., said that questions might arise about the cost of the legislation but that tightening security measures is important. “What are our values?” Manchin asked. “What are our priorities?”

MONEYLINE GROUPON GETS $250M INVESTMENT FROM ATAIROS Groupon says it received a $250 million investment from Atairos, an independent private investment company. Atairos CEO Michael Angelakis will join Groupon’s board. He is a former CFO at Comcast, and Comcast plans to work with Groupon on “strategic partnership opportunities.” “The potential in combining Groupon’s local expertise with Comcast’s vast subscriber and advertiser network is something we look forward to closely exploring together,” Comcast CEO Neil Smit said.

HIRING HITS NINE-YEAR HIGH IN FEBRUARY U.S. employers hired 5.4 million workers in February, a nine-year high that reflects a more vibrant labor market tilting decidedly in favor of job candidates. The 5.4 million hires in February was up from 5.1 million in January and the most since November 2006, according to the Labor Department’s Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey. The number of people quitting jobs also rose near pre-recession highs.

New factory will staff 2,800 by 2020; UAW calls it ‘very troubling’ Brent Snavely @BrentSnavely Detroit Free Press

Ford Motor said Tuesday it will invest $1.6 billion to build a new plant in Mexico to build small cars, sparking an outcry from its union and GOP presidential front-runner Donald Trump.

Announcement of the new Mexican plant, to be staffed with 2,800 workers by 2020, marked another blow to the United Auto Workers union, which pushed for higher wages in its contract talks with the automaker last year. The announcement also comes amid a presidential election in which Trump has publicly pressured

Ford to drop its plans to expand in Mexico.

After Ford’s announcement, Trump issued a statement calling it “an absolute disgrace” and vowing, “These ridiculous, job-crushing transactions will not happen when I am president.”

CEO Mark Fields has repeatedly said the automaker remains committed to investing in the U.S. but will not alter its plans to expand in Mexico.

While it did not say what vehicles will be built in the new Mexican plant, Ford made it clear last summer that it planned to move production of its Ford Focus and C-Max hybrids cars from a plant in Wayne, Mich., to another country by 2018, the same year the new plant in San Luis Potosi, Mexico, is scheduled to open.

Ford has said it will keep the Wayne plant open by building other models there, possibly a

midsize Ford Ranger pickup and a new Ford Bronco SUV. In the U.S., the UAW had pushed for higher wages in its contract talks with the automaker last year, and Tuesday’s announcement prompted a swift reaction.

“Today’s announcement ... is a disappointment and very trou-

bling,” UAW President Dennis Williams said in a statement. “For every investment in Mexico, it means jobs that could have and should have been available right here in the USA.” Last month, Trump said he would stop Ford from building in Mexico if he is elected president.

He said he would threaten the company and any other automaker who does so with a 35% tariff on any products or parts imported into the U.S. But Ford says it remains committed to investing in the U.S. and adding jobs in America even as it expands its presence in Mexico.

“We have to make decisions on a global scale because we compete globally,” Joe Hinrichs, Ford’s president of the Americas.

“But let’s be clear: We are a proud American company, and the majority of our investment happens here in the U.S.”

In a statement released Tuesday, Marvell says its board will conduct a search to replace CEO Sehat Sutardja and President Weili Dai — the husband-andwife team who co-founded the company in 1995. Both Sutardja and Dai will remain on Marvell’s board of directors. Shares of Marvell (MRVL) closed up 13% to $10.88 Tuesday.

Less than 24 hours after the Obama administration escalated its battle against corporate tax inversions, the outcome of at least one major pending U.S. merger appeared clouded by doubt Tuesday.

The latest in a series of escalating Department of the Treasury regulations took aim at maneuvers in which U.S. firms merge with companies in lower-tax nations and then shift their headquarters to the overseas locations. The moves often reduce the firms’ future U.S. tax bills, even as the companies maintain many of their domestic operations.

U.S. drug giant Pfizer and Ireland rival Allergan had structured the $160 billion merger they announced in November with terms that were designed to keep the potentially record-breaking transaction from violating the earlier rules limiting tax inversions.

By Tuesday, the proposed merger partners said they were reviewing the newly announced rules.

“Prior to completing the review, we won’t speculate on any potential impact,” Pfizer and Allergan said in a joint statement.

However, Jeffrey Loo, a financial analyst at S&P Global Market Intelligence, wrote in a Tuesday research note that the new federal rules would calculate Allergan’s stake in the Pfizer deal by excluding the stock of previous U.S. firms Allergan acquired during the past three years.

The deals include the $66 billion merger with Actavis, the $25 billion acquisition of Forest Labs and the $5 billion acquisition of Warner Chilcott.

As a result, federal regulators could conclude that Pfizer’s ownership stake in the pending deal is significantly larger than initially thought, wrote Loo. If that happens, he added, the combined Pfizer-Allergan entity could “con-

John Colley, a Warwick Business School professor who researches large mergers, similarly said the new anti-inversion rules are “casting doubt on the proposed merger, which appeared to be based more on the $21 billion tax benefits of a Dublin head office than any other mutual benefits.”

President Obama on Tuesday called corporate tax inversions “one of the most insidious tax

loopholes out there.”

Obama drew a comparison to recent Panama Papers revelations that provided new evidence of global tax evasion and money laundering through offshore accounts.

In 2014, he said that firms utilizing the tax-saving tactic were unfairly “gaming the system.” The White House subsequently initiated the series of moves aimed at blocking the inversions.

SAN FRANCISCO PayPal is canceling its planned $3.6 million North Carolina operations center because of the state’s new law preventing cities from banning discrimination against lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people, just two weeks after it announced the investment.

It becomes the second, and thus far largest, company to pull business out of the state, with

others contemplating similar moves.

Similar political dramas have played out in Georgia and Indiana over controversial religious freeBLOOMBERG dom laws that Schulman would have negatively affected gay residents, though with different outcomes in each state.

The North Carolina timeline went very quickly.

On March 18, North Carolina Gov. Pat McCrory announced that San Jose-based PayPal would build a new global operations center in Charlotte. The center

would have employed 400 people. At the time, PayPal’s senior vice president of global operations, John McCabe, said that “with its strong ties to the financial community and technologysavvy talent pool, Charlotte is an ideal fit for this new operations center.”

Then on March 23, North Carolina passed a sweeping law that prevents cities and counties from passing rules preventing discrimination against gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender people.

On Tuesday, PayPal CEO and President Dan Schulman announced the electronic payment company was withdrawing its plans to build an operations center in the state because the new law perpetuates discrimination

and violates the values and principles that he said are at the core of PayPal’s mission and culture.

The loss represents an economic blow to Mecklenburg County, where Charlotte is located. According to the Economic Development Partnership of North Carolina, PayPal would have invested more than $3.6 million in Mecklenburg County by the end of 2017.

The center was anticipated to yield a payroll impact of nearly $20.4 million per year for Mecklenburg and surrounding counties.

Locating in a state “where members of our teams will not have equal rights under the law is simply untenable,” Schulman said.

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

At its last meeting that broke up on March 16, the Federal Reserve sent a surprisingly friendly message to financial markets when it slashed the number of planned interest rate hikes this year from four to two. In explaining the move to scale back rate increases, Fed Chair Janet Yellen cited international headwinds as reasons for caution, as well as still-low inflation.

Yellen followed those comments up with a speech in New York on March 29 when she reiterated the Fed’s expectation for a slower pace of hikes, when she said the nation’s central bank will “proceed cautiously.”

Well, the minutes of that key Fed meeting were scheduled to

ET, and Wall Street pros will be trying to garner additional information as to what prompted the Fed’s decision. Investors will also try to glean what exactly it would take for the Fed to ramp up rate hikes in the future.

The Fed’s decision to reduce its “dot plot” for rate hikes to just two this year was greeted positively by investors and was instrumental in sparking a second wave of a rally that sent U.S. stocks back into positive territory for the year and to its best levels of 2016.

Despite the Fed’s “dovish” messaging, Wall Street is still unsure of what the unpredictable Fed might do with rates going forward. And with many Fed officials on the speaking circuit and discussing rates, the Fed outlook seems to be constantly evolving along with the economic data.

Inversion investors are feeling the hurt Q: Is investing in inversions too risky?

Matt Krantz

@mattkrantz mkrantz@usatoday.com USA TODAY

A: The government is clearly looking to make inversions less lucrative for companies, which was apparent this week with new Treasury Department rules. Inversions got riskier for speculators, too.

Inversions are corporate maneuvers taken by some companies looking to lower their U.S. tax bills. In these moves, a U.S.-based company combines with another company in a country with a lower tax rate.

Investors often speculate which companies could be targeted in such deals, and any merger for that matter, to look for quick gains. But the government is looking to make inversions much less easy to pull off and potentially less taxefficient.

Rules announced late Monday raise the requirements surrounding inversions. Investors immediately felt the hurt. Shares of health care company Allergan (AGN), which is currently amid a pending inversion with Pfizer (PFE), saw its shares drop 15% to about $235 a share Tuesday when it looked like the deal could run into trouble. IHS, which provides market data to companies, also saw its shares decline about 2%. The company plans to combine with an Irish rival, Markit, in an inversion. It’s hard to profit from a corporate move the government seems determined to squash.

Valeant completes Philidor probe without additional fallout Nathan Bomey and Kevin McCoy USA TODAY

Embattled drugmaker Valeant Pharmaceuticals International reported Tuesday that a special board committee had completed an internal investigation without discovering additional financial fallout from the firm’s previous ties to a controversial pharmacy company.

The announcement sent Valeant shares up 10.0% to $28.73 Tuesday as the drugmaker also said it plans to meet a key April

29 filing deadline required to avoid potential default on debt obligations.

Before Tuesday, Valeant shares had lost roughly 90% of their value in a seven-month slump as the

Canada-based company struggled with investigations and questions about its price hikes for prescription drug price increases.

The drugmaker has also been criticized about its since-severed relationship with specialty mailorder pharmacy Philidor Rx Services, which distributed Valeant medications to patients.

An October report by prominent short-seller Andrew Left’s Citron Research accused Valeant of creating a “network of phantom captive pharmacies” to boost sales of its more expensive drugs.

The company denied the allegations, but ordered the board in-

vestigation that eventually resulted in plans to restate $58 million in financial earnings from late 2014 into 2015.

Valeant Chairman Robert Ingram, who also chaired the ad hoc committee, said the special panel “believes that its review of various Philidor and related accounting matters is complete, and that it has not identified any additional items that would require restatements beyond those required by matters previously disclosed.”

Concurrently, Ingram said Valeant expects to file its annual report on or before April 29, in

compliance with a deadline written into the drugmaker’s financing agreements. The report had been delayed pending the results of the board investigation.

Still, Valeant remains under scrutiny from federal officials.

Soon-to-depart CEO J. Michael Pearson was recently subpoenaed to testify during an April 27 hearing of a Senate committee that is examining drug price increases.

Additionally, the company’s pricing and distribution practices are the subject of probes by federal prosecutors in Massachusetts and New York as well as the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Randy Jackson, Paula Abdul and Simon Cowell formed American Idol’s first judging panel. They’re back for the finale this week.

‘Idol’ originals celebrate the end of a sensation Cowell, Abdul, Seacrest and creator Fuller share memories before the final coronation Bill Keveney USA TODAY

Ask Simon Cowell about his favorite American Idol performance and, true to form, the judge famed for withering takes on bad singers provides a surprising answer.

“Probably William Hung, actually. To this day, it still makes me laugh,” the original panelist says of the viral, much-maligned performance of She Bangs. (Cowell then offers a more uplifting answer for Idol aficionados to debate: Tamyra Gray’s Season 1 rendition of A House Is Not a Home.)

Cowell, fellow judge Paula Abdul, host Ryan Seacrest and creator Simon Fuller reminisced about Fox’s ratings and cultural phenomenon that ends its run this week with a three-night finale featuring a 90-minute retrospective, the last performance competition, and a Thursday finale (8 ET/PT) packed with singers from 15 seasons, including Kelly Clarkson, Carrie Underwood and Jennifer Hudson.

Idol reinvented a TV staple, the talent show, for the modern age, Fuller says. It added “the interactive element, teaching America to text and vote; the back stories, (so) you fall in love with and care about the contestants; those live shows, with the tension of a sporting event; and dream fulfillment. Some of those dreams are misplaced, but others — Wow!” Personalities mattered, too.

Inaugural Idol Kelly Clarkson embodied the ideal of a talented singer rising from small-town anonymity to international star-

dom, Cowell says.

“Without Kelly, maybe we’re not having this conversation today,” he says. “She defined the show, the fact that there were people out there with huge talent who hadn’t (received) a recording contract. She validated the show.”

The original judging panel, which included bickering friends Cowell, Abdul and Randy Jackson, grabbed America’s attention when Idol premiered in 2002 and rode the show into the ratings stratosphere as the audience grew to more than 30 million viewers. (A sharp ratings decline in recent seasons is a main reason for its departure.)

“Simon was awesome as a

Host Ryan Seacrest

judge. That sort of honesty was unusual on TV,” says Fuller, who hopes to develop a new competition that could differ in structure and platform.

“In Season 1, some of the contestants weren’t too happy” with his brutal frankness, Cowell says.

“The public, however, has been amazing.”

Abdul, who countered Cowell with nurturing empathy, says Idol arrived when the country needed a family bonding experience.

“We were still recovering from months of unbearable sadness with 9/11. It had taken the wind out of our sails. We wanted anything that could make us smile,” she says. “Then this show comes along, and it’s about music and it’s built on the (idea) that together we would be able to find and make someone into a superstar.”

Seacrest, who has hosted Idol from the beginning, started to feel the impending conclusion during last Thursday’s show, the last at CBS Television City before Idol moves to Hollywood’s Dolby Theatre, home of the first finale, for the last coronation.

“When I talked to crew members and producers during commercial breaks, I was getting a little emotional,” he says. “It’s starting to sink in that this has been part of our lives every year for 15 years. I found that (emotion) to be challenging. I have no doubt it will be similar” Thursday when Trent Harmon, Dalton Rapattoni or La’Porsha Renae becomes the final Idol.

“It’s a more poignant, personal approach to the finale this year,” Fuller says. “We wanted to celebrate all that’s happened for 15 seasons. You’ll see all of our wonderful artists on the same stage. It will be an amazing trip down memory lane.”

The Force is with another good cause: Charity Brian Truitt USA TODAY

The most philanthropic of Star Wars fans may get a chance to walk the same Jedi steps as Daisy Ridley’s Rey. The charitable initiative Star Wars: Force for Change launched a month-long campaign Tuesday that leads up to Star Wars Day on May 4. As part of it, the program is matching fan donations to four select charities — U.S. Fund for UNICEF (in support of UNICEF Kid Power), American Red Cross,

Boys & Girls Clubs of America and Make-A-Wish — up to $1 million.

In addition, fans who donate are entered to win a trip to Ireland and Skellig Michael island, the locale of the emotional final scene of Star Wars: The Force Awakens between Rey and Mark Hamill’s Luke Skywalker.

“Star Wars fans are some of the most generous, thoughtful and sympathetic people I have ever met,” said Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy, who stars in an announcement video with Hamill.

“I am so proud of the charitable work they have done over the years and hope this month-long donation-matching campaign will go some way to express our sincere thanks for their tireless efforts.”

Force for Change has raised more than $10 million so far with the help of the Star Wars community, and lucky fans who donate can snag other cool stuff. During the first week, the first 20 folks to raise or donate at least $500 will win a Blu-ray copy of The Force Awakens (out today) signed by the cast.

Syndergaard, Mets shut out Royals Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

Jayhawks finished as 3rd-best in nation

Kansas City, Mo. (ap) — New York Mets right-hander Noah Syndergaard was amused when Kauffman Stadium’s speakers played “America Woman” as he trotted out to the mound for the first inning.

The standing-room only crowd of 39,782 fans drowned out the music with its boos.

Syndergaard silenced the fans with six dominant innings, Neil Walker hit his first homer with the Mets and New York beat Kansas City, 2-0, Tuesday after the

Royals were given their 2015 World Series rings.

Syndergaard (1-0) was the only pitcher to beat the Royals in the World Series last year, winning Game 3 after intentionally throwing his first pitch above Alcides Escobar’s head. Escobar started this one with a triple, but then Syndergaard struck out the next three batters and retired 12 straight before Kendrys Morales’ double opened the fifth.

“That’s not the result I wanted, a leadoff triple, but I gained a lot of momentum

after that,” Syndergaard said. “I just went about my game plan.”

Syndergaard allowed three hits, walked one and struck out nine.

Mets manager Terry Collins knew Syndergaard would not be intimated by the surroundings.

“He’s not afraid. He’s 6-7, 250 pounds,” Collins said.

“They don’t have much fear, Orlin Wagner/AP Photo those kind of guys.”

Syndergaard pitched out KANSAS CITY RIGHT FIELDER Reymond Fuentes, of a bases-loaded jam in the left, catches a fly ball as center fielder Lorenzo Cain ducks under the play Tuesday at Kauffman Please see ROYALS, page 3C Stadium in Kansas City, Mo.

The answer to what happened to Kansas University in the NCAA basketball tournament as in what went wrong elicits a very easy four-word response: Villanova happened, that’s what.

The Wildcats are national champions because by the time the tournament rolled around, they were the best team in the country, if only a fraction of a second better than North Carolina, the second-best team in the nation.

The nation’s third-best team? The coaches (sports information directors as proxies?) who voted Kansas No. 3 in the USA Today poll released Monday, got it right.

Heading into Monday night’s national-title game, North Carolina’s closest call came in a 14-point victory over Notre Dame. Other than in a 64-59 survival vs. Kansas, Nova’s smallest margin was 19 points vs.

Iowa. During their 6-0 title run, the Wildcats won by an average margin of 20.7 points. North Carolina’s five victories came by an average margin of 20.3 points.

Villanova overcame the injustice of having a No. 2 seed and playing in the most loaded bracket, proving that in order to win the national title, you have to beat the best.

That doesn’t change the injustice of Oklahoma, 44-point loser to Villanova and No. 2 seed in the weak West, having an easier path Richard Gwin/Journal-World Photo to the Final Four than KanFREE STATE HIGH JUNIOR IAN PULTZ-EARLE REACHES FOR A RETURN against Shawnee Mission Northwest during a quadrangular meet sas.

KANSAS BASKETBALL

Ex-Robert Morris guard to visit KU

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Former Robert Morris shooting guard Rodney Pryor, who averaged 18.5 points and 8.0 rebounds a game for the (10-22) Colonials last season, tells cbssports.com and Rivals. com he is planning on making a recruiting visit to Kansas University.

Pryor, 6-5, 205 from Evanston, Ill., who has received his undergraduate degree, will be immediately eligible to play a final season at his transfer destination if, as expected, he receives a sixth season of eligibility from the NCAA. A lefthanded shooter, he hit 43.4 percent of his shots — 29 percent of his threes (49 of 169) and 86 percent of his free

throws — a year ago. He had 43 assists against 83 turnovers with 42 steals and earned first-team allNortheast Conference honors.

Pryor started his college career in 2011-12 at Kirkwood (Mo.) Community College, then sat out the 2012-13 and 2013-14 seasons at Cloud County CC in Kansas because of a broken foot and torn ACL respectively.

He resurrected his career at Robert Morris, averaging 15.6 ppg and 4.7 rpg in 2014-15, then emerged as the squad’s leading scorer last season. He had 23 points against Duke in the 2015 NCAA Tournament. He averaged 18.0 ppg his senior year at Notre Dame High in Niles, Ill. Pryor, who will be 24

when next season begins, has set up visits to Georgetown for this upcoming weekend, as well as Gonzaga (April 21) and Florida (April 17). He also has heard from Minnesota, Ole Miss, Georgia and Oregon.

“This is a player who can put the ball in the basket. He is a confident outside shooter and is willing and able to shoot off the dribble, on the move, and in catch-and-shoot situations,” writes casualhoya.com. “In addition, Pryor, who is left-handed, can use step-back moves and escape dribbles to create his own shots and is able to make difficult shots, often with a hand in his face.

“The form on Pryor’s jump shot is slightly unorthodox, but he has

proven that he can make shots in the past,” casualhoya.com adds. “He generally prefers to attack the rim immediately after catching a pass on the wing, when the defense is off balance. He can also attack in transition, but he is not the type of player who is going to break down his defender one-on-one in the half-court set and get to the rim. Pryor is a willing passer, but no one would mistake him for a point guard. This guy is a pure scoring wing.

“On defense, it appears that he has the athleticism to be serviceable on that end of the floor. In addition, he has been a fantastic defensive rebounder, grabbing 8.0 rebounds per game, which is a strong number for a

doing everything I can just to try to improve every day.”

During spring break, Ryan said he played eight or nine matches over a seven-day stretch.

This season, Ryan has made the move from No. 2 doubles to No. 1 singles.

Free State coach Keith Pipkin said the varsity lineup will likely rotate throughout the season, but Ryan has proved himself as one of the top options for his team.

“I just tried to play as many singles matches as I could during the offseason, trying to improve my singles game,” Ryan said.

“I didn’t play as much doubles. I definitely think it paid off.”

At No. 1 singles, Ryan won 8-1 in a match against SM North’s Anthony Giambalvo and he rolled to an 8-3 win against SM Northwest.

Ryan still enjoys playing doubles when he gets the chance, and he teamed with Cooper Rasmussen for an 8-2 victory over Olathe Northwest at No. 2 doubles.

Along with Ryan, Rasmussen won all three of his matches, including two victories at No. 2 singles. Sophomore Garrett Luinstra teamed with freshman Sawyer Nickel for two wins at No. 2 doubles and then Luinstra won 8-0 at No. 2 singles against Olathe Northwest.

sixth, striking out Morales on three swings.

“We had the bases loaded in the sixth and he threw Morales a 95, 93 and 93 mph slider that there is not a man on this earth I believe could hit any of those pitches,” Royals manager Ned Yost said. “I even asked George (Brett), ‘Do you think you could even foul any of those off?’ and he said, ‘No way.’”

The Royals went 0 for 7 with runners in scoring position.

The Mets acquired Walker in a December trade with Pittsburgh. He homered off Chris Young (0-1) in the fourth after Yoenis Cespedes walked.

That was the first hit Young allowed.

“I tried to throw a fastball away, behind in the count 1-0,” Young said.

“He put a good swing on it and that was the difference in the game.”

Young was pulled after five innings and 93 pitches, allowing three hits and three walks while striking out four.

F. Austin. Keller had been an assistant at Texas A&M the past five seasons after working for KU coach Bill Self three seasons as video coordinator.

“Kyle brings a wealth of experience having worked for great coaches like Eddie Sutton, Bill Self and Billy Kennedy. This experience will fit well to continue our SFA basketball culture of winning championships and making NCAA tournament appearances,” Stephen F. Austin AD Robert Hill said. “He cares deeply for his players and is a wonderful husband and father. We are so happy he has agreed to become a Lumberjack. I look forward to having our fans and students get to know him.”

Kansas baseball tops Baker, 6-1 Colby Wright hit a three-run triple during a four-run first inning, and Kansas University’s baseball team defeated Baker, 6-1, on Tuesday at Hoglund Ballpark.

“It was a great at-bat,” KU coach Ritch Price said of Wright’s hit. “He stayed inside the baseball and took the ball the other way. He crushed two balls later in the game that had a chance to be home runs that died in the wind.”

Hayden Edwards (1-0) pitched two hitless innings of relief for the victory.

“It was a tough day to hit and a great day to pitch,” Price said. “The wind was blowing in today as hard as I have ever seen it.”

The Jayhawks (11-15) will play at 6:30 p.m. today at Missouri State. Baker fell to 12-19.

feated Leavenworth, 15-0, on Tuesday.

Rays 3, Blue Jays 2 St. Petersburg, Fla. — Baseball’s new rule on breaking up double plays gave Logan Forsythe and Tampa Bay a disputed victory over Toronto.

With the bases loaded and one out in the ninth inning, Toronto slugger Edwin Encarnacion hit a grounder to third. After taking a throw from Evan Longoria for the force at second, Forsythe made an errant relay to first that appeared to allow the goahead run to score for the Blue Jays.

Rays manager Kevin Cash asked for a replay review, claiming Jose Bautista violated the new “Chase Utley Rule” governing slides on potential double plays.

Replay umpires in New York ruled Bautista’s slide was not directly into the bag and it illegally hindered Forsythe.

The call was changed to a game-ending double play that preserved Tampa Bay’s victory.

Forsythe hit a tworun homer in the eighth off Brett Cecil (0-1) that ended the reliever’s run of 38 straight appearances without allowing an earned run.

Astros 5, Yankees 3 New York — A freezing opening day at Yankee Stadium turned on a play that caused a hot argument.

Carlos Correa reached on an eighth-inning dribbler that Dellin Betances threw over first baseman Mark Teixeira as Jose Altuve scored the tiebreaking run, and Houston beat New York to win four straight openers for the first time in history.

Yankees manager Joe Girardi argued with plate umpire Dana DeMuth that Correa should have been called out for running on the fair side of the foul line, causing Betances (0-1) to throw the ball over Teixeira for an error.

After the four umpires conferred, the call was upheld and Girardi played the remainder of the game under protest.

Luis Valbuena added a two-run single on Betances’ 30th and final pitch for a 5-2 lead.

Dallas Keuchel dominated, but not quite as much as in last October’s AL wild-card game.

Keuchel (1-0) allowed Starlin Castro’s two-run double in the second.

Mariners 10, Rangers 2 Arlington, Texas — Nelson Cruz hit one of four Seattle homers, fellow former Texas player Leonys Martin had a tiebreaking double and the Mariners bounced back from an opening day loss to beat the Rangers.

Scott Servais, who spent six years in player development with Texas, got his first win as a manager while having a shouting match with reigning AL Manager of the Year Jeff Banister.

The pair exchanged words after former Seattle reliever Tim Wilhelmsen hit Chris Iannetta with a pitch. Wilhelmsen, who was ejected, had just given up the second of two homers along with two doubles without getting an out in a six-run Seattle eighth.

Nick Vincent (1-0) pitched a scoreless sixth inning.

Texas reliever Tony Barnette (0-1) lost in his major league debut at age 32 after six seasons in Japan.

Or, test drive this pasta-free option In a small bowl, mix the curry paste and fish sauce.

Add the pineapple, chili sauce, garlic, basil, lime zest and coconut milk. Mix well.

Divide the shallots evenly among the prepared sheets of foil, spreading them evenly in the center of each rectangle. Set a salmon fillet over the shallots on each sheet, then spoon some of the sauce over the salmon, dividing it evenly between the servings. Top each with red pepper slices and green beans, then fold up the sides of the foil to create loose packets. Be sure to crimp the packets well so they contain any steam.

Place the packets on a baking sheet and bake until the salmon is cooked through, 15 to 20 minutes.

Be careful when opening; the packets will release hot steam.

Looking for a comforting chicken dish? Look to India’s kadhi

By Meera Sodha Associated Press

Type "chicken recipe" into Google and watch as millions of suggestions line up, page after page, at your beck and call.

There is no shortage of ways to cook our favorite bird. But often what I really want when I crave chicken is something that will comfort and soothe: a meal that is the equivalent of a good blanket, cup of tea, or a bath of the perfect temperature. For me, this buttermilk chicken kadhi is that dish.

Kadhi is one of India's most popular dishes, the taste of home for so many Indians. At its most basic, it is buttermilk or yoghurt spiced with fenugreek and turmeric, laced with green chilies, garlic and ginger, then bound together with chickpea flour. The flour thickens the buttermilk, turning it

into a silky, deeply savory and addictive sauce.

It is a frugal dish, which is much cherished. And even though it never graced the boilerplate Indian restaurant menus around the world, it is cooked weekly, if not daily, in our homes.

Poaching chicken in the kadhi is not traditional (Google searches return nothing) but, since putting the two together, I have never looked back. Panfrying the chicken legs first brings out the delicious sticky caramel flavors in the skin before the buttermilk bath, which tenderizes the leg meat magnifiChicken Kadhi cently. The result is impossibly soft chicken, which falls off the Ingredients: 2 tablespoons canola oil bone easily, ready to dunk into 4 pounds chicken thighs and a creamy, but tart and gently drumsticks spiced sauce.

1 teaspoon black mustard seeds As far as chicken recipes that 2 pinches fenugreek seeds hit the spot go, for flavor, speed 1 teaspoon cumin seeds and ease, this one is hard to beat.

Directions: In a large skillet pan over medium-high, heat the oil. When hot, add the chicken and brown until evenly golden on all sides, about 10 minutes. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.

Spoon off all but 2 tablespoons of the fat in the skillet. Return the skillet to medium heat, then add the mustard, fenugreek, cumin and curry leaves. Allow to sizzle for 1 minute, then add the ginger, garlic and chilies and cook for a few minutes, or until soft and golden.

Matthew Mead/AP Photo Reduce the heat to low and 20 fresh curry leaves add the chickpea flour, turmeric 1 1/2-inch chunk fresh ginger, and salt. Mix and slowly whisk in grated the buttermilk. Bring the butter6 cloves garlic, crushed milk up to a very gentle simmer, 2 green finger chilies, finely chopped then return the chicken to the 1 1/2 tablespoons chickpea flour skillet. Coat with the sauce, then 1/2 teaspoon turmeric cover and cook for 30 minutes, 1 teaspoon kosher salt or until the chicken is soft and 1 quart buttermilk cooked through.

Researchers Find that Chocolate Has an Anti-Stress Effect

participants. However, people who had consumed the dark chocolate experienced a reduced stress response.

Wirtz wrote that the dark chocolate reduced the adrenal gland’s “stress reactivity.”

The dark chocolate contained 125 mg of an antioxidant flavonoid known as epicatechin, while the placebo chocolate contained none.

Stressed by work or life at home? A new study has found that eating a tiny bit of dark chocolate can reduce both feelings and biochemical markers of stress.

Reference: Wirtz PH, von Kanel R, Meister RE, et al. Dark chocolate intake buffers stress reactivity in humans. Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 2014: doi 10.1016/j.jacc.2014.02.580.

Petra H. Wirtz, PhD, and her colleagues at the University of Bern, Switzerland, recruited 65 healthy men, ages 20 to 50 years, for the study. The research was funded in part by the Swiss Cocoa and Chocolate Foundation.

Gluten-Free Diet May Prevent Type1 Diabetes

Thirty-one of the subjects received 50 grams (a little less than 2 ounces) of a 72-percent dark chocolate, while 34 subjects received the same amount of a look-a-like fake chocolate. The researchers took blood and saliva samples for later analysis, and two hours later the subjects underwent a psychosocial stress test. The test included a mock job interview and a mental arithmetic task in front of an audience. Another blood and saliva sample was taken one hour after the stress test.

Researchers at the Rigshospitalet in Copenhagen, Denmark, fed pregnant laboratory mice either a standard diet or a gluten-free diet. The mice continued to eat their respective diets during lactation.
