Records: Officer was accused in strip club battery

PUBLISHED SINCE 1891

WILL AGENCIES’ HANDS BE TIED ON IMMIGRATION?

By Conrad Swanson cswanson@ljworld.com

Sanctuary cities order could hurt city, county financially

A Lawrence police officer was under investigation for two months last year after he was accused of attacking a man inside a Tecumseh strip club, a Journal-World investigation has found.

The officer, Kyle Owens, resigned his position with the Lawrence Police Department shortly after the investigation concluded. No criminal charges were filed against him, and he is currently working for another Kansas police department.

It remains unclear whether Owens was on duty at the time of the reported attack and whether he was placed on suspension during the investigation. Citing the matter as a personnel issue, Lawrence Police Chief Tarik Khatib declined to comment on the accusations against Owens.

A review by the JournalWorld found that Douglas County and Sedgwick County have very similar practices in how they deal with illegal immigrants in jail. Those practices have caused Sedgwick County to be labeled a sanctuary community, and leaders in Wichita are contemplating losing some federal funding. Under a proposed state law, Douglas County would clearly meet the definition of a sanctuary community.

Immigration CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A

The executive order makes the designation one to watch.

The order came with the threat of withholding federal grant money from jurisdictions that have policies or practices that “prevent or hinder” the enforcement of federal immigration law. That broad language could endanger hundreds of thousands of dollars in federal funding received annually by local governments or law enforcement agencies, which don’t honor all federal requests to hold illegal immigrants.

Unless illegal immigrants living in Douglas County are arrested on suspicion of a serious crime, they aren’t likely to be treated differently than any other person booked into the jail. That means as soon as local charges are taken care of, the jail would not detain someone just because federal agencies indicate he or she is an illegal immigrant.

“We have to let them go unless we have the legal paperwork from wherever else stating that there is a reason to hold them, such as a warrant or a deportation order,” said Douglas County Sheriff’s Office Sgt. Kristen Dymacek.

Local leaders say the president’s order puts the county in an unfamiliar position.

“This is all new territory for us, having a relationship with the executive branch Gaughan of the federal government,” said Douglas County Commission Chairman Mike Gaughan.

Trump’s executive orders on immigration On Jan. 25, Trump issued two executive orders related to immigration — one promising to build a wall along the country’s southern border and the other regarding sanctuary jurisdictions.

The latter order, Enhancing Public Safety in the Interior of the United States, is in contrast with previous polices that prioritized the deportation of those who have committed serious crimes. Instead, it specifically calls for the execution of immigration laws “against all removable aliens.”

“We cannot faithfully execute the immigration laws of the United States if we exempt classes or categories of removable aliens from potential enforcement,” the order states.

To ensure that level of enforcement, the order gives the secretary of homeland security the discretion to designate sanctuary jurisdictions and deem them ineligible to receive federal grants. That covers jurisdictions that violate federal immigration laws such as information sharing as well as a jurisdiction that “has in effect a statute, policy, or practice that prevents or hinders the enforcement of federal law.”

Though the executive order doesn’t specifically spell out whether refusing to honor detainer requests — a two-page form that is not accompanied by an arrest warrant or deportation order — makes a jurisdiction a sanctuary, it does reproach the practice.

The order states that crimes committed by illegal immigrants who were not deported as a result of declined detainer requests will be published weekly

Everybody jumping up and down and saying ‘Well, you’ve got to go out and arrest everybody’ — well, I don’t have the authority to do that.”

— Douglas County Sheriff Ken McGovern

“to better inform the public regarding the public safety threats associated with sanctuary jurisdictions.”

The other executive order, Border Security and Immigration Enforcement Improvements, calls for non-federal law enforcement agencies to aid in deportations. In addition to building a border wall, the order states it is executive policy to “empower state and local law enforcement agencies across the country to perform the functions of an immigration officer in the interior of the United States to the maximum extent permitted by law.”

Those orders have stirred debate nationwide over their legality, and questions over what makes a community a sanctuary.

Put in the middle County law enforcement agencies are the key players in this debate, as it is typically counties, and in particular the sheriff’s offices, that run local jails.

Some large cities — San Francisco, Seattle, New York — have made sanctuary declarations, and have policies in place that limit local law enforcement’s cooperation with federal immigration. Some have even adopted ordinances that prohibit other institutions, such as schools, hospitals or aid organizations, from asking about a person’s immigration status or citizenship.

There is no legal definition of a sanctuary jurisdiction, but the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office does not consider itself one, nor has it been named one thus far.

When asked whether he thought Trump’s executive orders on immigration pushed his agency to do more, Douglas County Sheriff Ken McGovern said he has no plans to follow any guidelines but those set by standing state and federal laws.

“That’s what we have to operMcGovern ate under until the courts tell us they’re changing it or they’re leaving it the same,” McGovern said. “Law enforcement gets caught in the middle, but we operate on what the law says we should do today.”

The sheriff’s office doesn’t know how many immigration detainer requests it receives because it does not track that information, according to Dymacek. She said that in 2016 there were seven people turned over to federal immigration agents because of a warrant or deportation order.

Neither Lawrence nor Douglas County has made a declaration regarding its cooperation with federal immigration officials, and it will be up to federal officials to decide what communities or agencies are sanctuary jurisdictions, according to the order.

deportation order.

The Douglas County Sheriff’s Office doesn’t check immigration status in the line of its duties, nor does it honor the standalone requests issued by federal immigration agencies to detain illegal immigrants.

Specifically, Dymacek said the sheriff’s office does not honor the “informal” 48-hour detainer requests sometimes submitted by federal immigration agencies. As required by law, she said the sheriff’s office honors immigration holds if a warrant for removal proceeding or a deportation order has been issued, and that those inmates are usually picked up within a business day. She noted that procedure goes for all detainers from outside agencies.

“There are specific guidelines by law that we have to follow,” Dymacek said. “If they’re outside those guidelines, then we don’t honor them.”

Those practices are in line with state, federal and case law, but don’t necessarily abide by the broad language of Trump’s executive orders.

The Douglas County Sheriff’s Office practice is not to ask people about their immigration status, whether they are a victim, witness or suspect in a crime, according to Dymacek. For those booked into the jail, the sheriff’s office follows laws regarding information sharing by relaying inmates’ fingerprints and other booking information to the Kansas Bureau of Investigation.

Only those arrested on suspicion of the most serious crimes would be reported to federal immigration agencies.

State law (KSA 21-2501) requires local law enforcement agencies to fingerprint those who have been arrested for felonies, Class A & B misdemeanors, and Class C assaults, and then send a copy of the fingerprints to the KBI. The KBI then sends those records to the Federal Bureau of Investigation and Immigration and Customs Enforcement, according to KBI Communications Director Melissa Underwood.

Those notifications alert federal immigration agencies that the jail has an illegal immigrant in custody, and could trigger a detainer request to hold the inmate 48 hours beyond when they would otherwise be released to allow immigration agents to take custody.

The Lawrence Police Department’s general practice is that unless someone is in custody for suspicion of a person felony, officers wouldn’t check his or her immigration status or report to federal immigration agencies.

L awrence J ournal -W orld counties, Easter said his agency got on the lists because they adopted an official detainer policy and announced it publicly.

“We had a press conference and everything,” Easter said.

The Douglas County Sheriff’s Office, on the other hand, did not widely publicize its decision to stop honoring 48-hour detainer requests. Another possible reason is that more national attention has also been paid to jurisdictions that include bigger cities, which typically have larger immigrant populations.

Not arbitrary procedures Though some may see the policies regarding 48-hour detainer procedures as elective or even political, many jurisdictions don’t look at it that way.

Like many counties, Sedgwick included, the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office changed its policy regarding 48-hour detainer requests in response to a court ruling, Dymacek said.

In 2014, Miranda-Olivares v.

Clackamas County ruled that holding a person on a standalone detainer was illegal because it violated a person’s fourth amendment right to be free from unreasonable seizure. In fact, the form now used to request that law enforcement agencies hold an inmate because of his or her immigration status is clearly labeled as voluntary.

Dymacek said because of that ruling, to honor the detainer requests received without a warrant or deportation order would actually put the sheriff’s office at risk of being sued.

“Basically, that provides the case law that we follow,” Dymacek said. “Because otherwise, if we didn’t, we could be subject to lawsuits if we hold people, which was obviously found to be illegal in that case.”

Given Trump’s order empowering non-federal agencies to enforce immigration laws, McGovern said he’s been asked if they will start picking up people because of their immigration status. He said that would violate state laws against racial or biased policing.

“Everybody jumping up and down and saying ‘Well, you’ve got to go out and arrest everybody,’” McGovern said. “Well, I don’t have the authority to do that.”

Because the sheriff’s office is following applicable laws, McGovern said he was not concerned that federal dollars were in jeopardy.

Southwest Middle School team bound for national Future City competition

By Joanna Hlavacek jhlavacek@ljworld.com

This week, Danielle LottonBarker will board a plane to Washington, D.C., where her students are due to compete in the national Future City competition against some 30 teams from middle schools across the country. It’s exciting, to be sure, but it’s also not her first time making the journey.

“This is our fourth year we’ve made it to nationals,” says LottonBarker, who sponsors the highly decorated Future City teams at Southwest Middle School.

“You feel almost greedy saying that out loud,” she admits. Still, Lotton-Barker, now in her ninth year coaching Southwest’s engineeringinclined Future City teams, isn’t shy about sharing her students’ accomplishments.

Engineering teacher Jamie Shaw joined her last semester as co-coach.

At Southwest, there’s a lot to celebrate. The school’s eighth-grade team — the worldwide competition encourages kids to imagine, design and build their own cities — beat out 56 other teams from Kansas, Missouri and Colorado for the first-place title at last month’s regional contest at Kansas State

University. And soon, they’ll be heading to the nation’s capital to present their winning project, a reimagined version of Jakarta, Indonesia, they’ve named Teratai after the Indonesian word for “lotus.”

“I feel like we definitely have a good chance because of our highquality buildings and innovations,” says Abdullah Ahmed, one of three Southwest eighth-graders set to present Teratai at the national competition. “And we have a big team with a wide skill set, so we should be able to creatively adjust to any situation we’re put in.”

A key component of Future City is sustainability, and Lotton-Barker’s eighth graders have envisioned a Teratai 140 years in the future that has effectively conquered the overcrowding, pollution and other issues plaguing contemporary Jakarta. All

thanks to Teratai’s talented team of engineers, of course.

Students worked with their coaches and their engineer mentor, Christopher Storm of Lawrence’s Landplan Engineering, to develop and build the design. In Teratai, residents travel on high-speed trains that run on low-friction magnets. The city’s power is supplied mostly by nuclear fusion, and its once-heavily polluted Ciliwung River has been transformed into a popular public space kept clean by pollutant-filtering sensors, aquatic drones and genetically modified bioluminescent bacteria.

That “big team” Ahmed mentioned is composed of 29 students, a jump from previous years, says Lotton-Barker. Working together as a team, she says, particularly one as large as Southwest’s, has been a challenge for her eighthgraders. But these aspiring engineers welcome challenges gladly.

Sometimes, co-presenter Spencer Ware says, there’s conflict between teammates. Still, it’s good training for “the real world,” as he puts it, “where you might be with an engineering team and you have to work with lots of other people.”

The money Trump’s executive order on sanctuary jurisdictions threatens to withhold federal funds “except as mandated by law.”

Depending on the breadth of enforcement, that could mean anywhere from thousands to millions of dollars for local jurisdictions and governments.

If the state legislation is enacted, additional dollars are at stake.

The Douglas County Sheriff’s Office received about $135,000 in federal grants in 2016, according to Dymacek. Of two of the bigger grants, one provided funds for mental health at the jail and another for technology. The sheriff’s office did not receive any state grants last year, she said.

The Lawrence Police Department received two federal grants totaling about $40,000 in 2016, Sgt. Amy Rhoads said. Those dollars went toward purchasing bulletproof vests and forensic-related equipment. Rhoads said the police department

Since 2014, at least three additional Lawrence police officers — Nicolas Simon, William Burke and Frank McClelland — have been investigated amid accusations of violence. All three resigned their positions with LPD, though both Burke and McClelland remain certified to work as police officers. Simon’s certification was revoked in 2015. Only McClelland was charged with a crime: a single misdemeanor battery charge.

The reported battery involving Owens took place around 3 a.m. on April 17, 2016 at 7128 SE U.S. Highway 40, according to an offense report filed by the Shawnee County Sheriff’s Office.

The address belongs to Tommi Knockers, an adult nightclub in Tecumseh.

There, Owens was accused of battering Elijah Masquat, 36, who had a warrant out for his arrest in Shawnee County at the time, said Shawnee County Sheriff’s Office Capt.

Mike Kolbeck.

Masquat has an extensive criminal history in Douglas County, court records show. Between 2007 and 2016, he has been convicted on a number of criminal counts, including drug offenses, assault on a law enforcement officer, theft, assault and obstruction of the legal process.

Attempts to reach both Owens and Masquat were unsuccessful.

Questions and calls for action from the city Two local requests for the City of Lawrence to make a statement regarding how it handles illegal immigrants have also recently been made.

About 20 students from Lawrence High School submitted a petition in

December asking that the City Commission make a statement of solidarity with minorities, immigrants and other marginalized groups, as well as to name Lawrence a sanctuary city. The University of Kansas Student Senate also passed a resolution in November asking that Lawrence become a sanctuary city.

City staff have since met with student representatives from both LHS and KU to talk about their requests. In addition, the city manager’s office and city attorney’s office have been developing a set of recommendations that the City Commission will consider in coming weeks.

Viveca Price, a junior at LHS involved with the petition, said that a sanctuary proclamation and codification of how city and county law enforcement agencies handle illegal immigrants would help residents who are uncertain whether Trump’s executive orders will be enforced locally.

“While people may know that you’re a safe organization, saying that and going that extra step is going to make people feel a lot better and it’s going

to increase the solidarity,” Price said. “I think it’s necessary to have a statement from the city, to have this put out.”

Casey Toomay, assistant city manager, said that a lot of the conversations in the meetings with students are to try to understand what exactly the groups mean when they request that Lawrence become a sanctuary.

“It’s still a bit of a work in progress,” Toomay said. “The talks, I feel like, have been very productive. Everybody has been very helpful and open and interested in finding common ground and ways that we can try to balance all the different sides of the issue.”

Toomay said those conversations keep with the city’s legislative priority of collaborating with and supporting KU and Haskell Indian Nations University on their legislative issues and agendas.

Toomay said at this point, the city doesn’t have any fully developed recommendations that it is ready to publicize. She said the goal is to have the recommendations, as well as details regarding the city’s federal financing, ready to present to

the scene shortly after 4 a.m. and left in less than an hour, the offense report says. Masquat was arrested and booked into the Shawnee County Jail.

Owens was not.

Kolbek said he could offer more specific details surrounding the incident.

The Journal-World’s request for body camera footage from the responding deputy has not been fulfilled as of Friday.

The deputy’s report indicates Owens and Masquat are familiar with each other and that Masquat was not injured in the reported battery.

After the incident, Kolbek said Khatib reached out to Shawnee County Sheriff Herman Jones and asked his agency to investigate.

“I got that information and assigned it to a detective, who conducted a very thorough investigation,” he said.

The results of the investigation were submitted to the Shawnee County District Attorney’s Office on June 17, 2016, Kolbek said.

At the time, Chad Taylor was serving as the Shawnee County District Attorney. He was succeeded in January by Michael Kagay.

Charles Kitt, chief of staff for the Shawnee County District Attorney’s Office, said because of the recent administration change he could not speak about the office’s investigation at length. He did say, however, that on Sept.

1, Taylor declined to press charges against Owens because of a lack of evidence.

Owens resigned about a week before the district

attorney notified Owens that he would not be pressing charges.

Owens’ resignation marked the fourth instance where a Lawrence police officer has resigned amid allegations of violence since 2014. When asked whether those numbers were indicative of a larger problem within the department, Khatib said he was “proud of the high level of accountability we hold ourselves to,” and that the department takes appropriate actions when officers do not meet expectations.

“I think that is the real story, and not whether there is an issue or problem at the department,” Khatib said. “We are an agency of 187 employees.

Mistakes and misconduct will occur. It’s a reality of our humanity and the stress of the job.”

Every time an officer leaves a police department in Kansas, no matter the reason, the agency is obligated to file a Notice of Termination or Status Change document to the Kansas Commission on Peace Officers’ Standards and Training within 30 days.

KS-CPOST is the agency responsible for certifying officers to work within the state.

On a Notice of Termination or Status Change document, each agency is required to explain if an officer’s departure was a resignation or a termination and then elaborate on the nature of those circumstances.

Michelle Meier, counsel for KS-CPOST, said the forms are often used to launch investigations into

an officer’s actions, which can lead to the revocation of a certification.

Owens’ Notice of Termination or Status Change document was signed by Khatib, noting his last day as Aug. 25, 2016.

In December, KSCPOST reached out to LPD with a “request for clarification” on Owens’ document, Lawrence Police Sgt. Amy Rhoads said. “We re-submitted the form in December.”

Both versions of the document are heavily redacted.

Meier declined to say whether Owens is under investigation or has been investigated. Currently, however, his certificate to work as a police officer in Kansas remains in good standing and he is actively working as an officer somewhere else in the state, Meier said. As of Friday, however, she had not yet fulfilled a request from the Journal-World for more precise information on where he is now working.

Details from KSCPOST are already severely limited to the public, and state lawmakers are considering a bill that would close off even more information.

If approved, the bill, HB 2070, would allow KS-CPOST to deny requests seeking Notice of Status Change or Termination documents, referring those inquiries back to the agency that originally filed the paperwork.

In a written response to questions, Khatib said generally when a police department hires an officer who worked at another department “they

may receive a copy of the KS-CPOST form.”

“This would generally cue the department into the circumstances surrounding the officer’s departure from his/her previous department,” he wrote.

However, Doug Anstaet, executive director of the Kansas Press Association, which testified against the legislation, said frequently that information isn’t requested by hiring departments.

“We are often amazed by how little of this

received three state grants totaling about $50,000 in 2016. Those dollars went toward a traffic enforcement program, traffic equipment, and an impaired-driving deterrence program, Rhoads said.

If penalties were expanded beyond just grants received by law enforcement agencies, the dollar values would hit the millions.

Preliminary grant numbers for the City of Lawrence for 2016 show federal grants of about $5.4 million and state grants of about $220,000, according to Nate Blum, senior accountant with the city.

Douglas County typically receives about $460,000 annually in federal grants, according to Assistant County Administrator Sarah Plinsky. The county typically receives about $615,000 annually in state grants, she said.

Energy plan a smart move The city’s investment in energy efficiency is money well spent.

T

he Lawrence City Commission was right to invest in increasing the energy efficiency of city buildings.

Commissioners voted Tuesday to approve $11.3 million in energy-efficient improvements to lighting, heating and cooling systems, and other city equipment.

The project is part of the state’s Facilities Conservation Improvement Program, which the city joined in December 2015.

Eileen Horn, sustainability coordinator for Lawrence and Douglas County, said FCIP reviewed the energy savings estimates.

The financing of the improvements was attractive to commissioners. The projects will be funded by “green bonds,” which will be paid back over 22 years with the savings generated by the efficiency improvements.

The general contractor for the project is Lawrence-based 360 Energy Engineers.

The firm completed an energy audit of all city facilities and has guaranteed the energy savings as part of a performance contract with the city. Horn said a legal team reviewed the performance contract with 360 Energy Engineers.

The improvements include 30 projects, affecting all 50 of the facilities operated by the city. Projects begin in March and include: l Energy and indoor air quality improvements at the Indoor Aquatic Center: about $1.7 million l LED lights and updated controls for all city buildings: about $1.4 million. l Updated lighting for sports fields operated by the Parks and Recreation Department: about $1.3 million. l And upgrades, additions and optimization of heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems for all city buildings: about $1.1 million “It’s going to yield some really visible and exciting energy saving projects for the city,” Horn said. “And we’re going to get to do them all at once, which we never get to do.”

It is the first time that green bonds will be used to fund a Kansas project.

Ongoing efficiency improvements to county facilities have already reduced energy costs by 30 percent or more at several county buildings including the Douglas County Courthouse, Law Enforcement Center, United Way Building and Douglas County Extension Office.

It’s always smart to invest taxpayer dollars in efficiency improvements that produce a tangible return on that investment.

The energy-efficiency improvements approved by the city fall into that category, and the creative financing program being used benefits taxpayers as well.

A smart move by commissioners that will pay off for years to come.

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for Feb. 12, 1917: l “Police Judge Finch took years up the items that awaited him ago at the city hall this morning in IN 1917 groups of four. First there were four Lawrence men who were charged with playing poker; next four speeders; and finally four quarts of red liquor that were taken from Theodore Hamilton who came up from Kansas City on the interurban yesterday. The defense of the four men charged with gambling is that they were only playing casino.”

White terrorism vs. Muslim terrorism White terrorism is not as bad as Muslim terrorism.

That, believe it or not, was the crux of an argument Sean Duffy, a Republican representative from Wisconsin, made last week on CNN. What follows has been condensed for space, but it unfolded like this: Asked by anchor Alisyn Camerota about the Trump regime’s failure to condemn a recent massacre in which six Muslims were killed by a white extremist in Quebec, Duffy allowed that, “Murder on both sides is wrong,” but insisted, “There is a difference.”

That difference, as he sees it: There’s no white extremist ISIS or al-Qaida fomenting terrorism. What happened in Canada, he said, “was a one-off.”

And the Oklahoma City bombing?

“So, you’ve given me two examples,” said Duffy.

And the Charleston church massacre?

“Look at the good things that came from it. [ThenSouth Carolina Gov.] Nikki Haley took down the Confederate flag. That was great.

But ... there’s no constant thread that goes through these attacks.”

Of course there is.

This double standard reflects not simply America’s xenophobia, but also America’s maddening insistence upon the blamelessness, the fundamental innocence, of whiteness, even when the evidence screams otherwise.” to the principles of racial supremacy and embrace antigovernment, antiregulatory beliefs.” So said Dale L. Watson, then the executive assistant director of the Counterterrorism/Counterintelligence Division of the FBI, in Senate testimony way back in 2002.

Duffy is wrong about pretty much everything else, too. No white extremist groups fomenting terror?

others that seems to apply only to swarthy individuals with difficult names. When white people do it, it is less likely to be perceived — or reported by news media — as terrorism.

This double standard reflects not simply America’s xenophobia, but also America’s maddening insistence upon the blamelessness, the fundamental innocence, of whiteness, even when the evidence screams otherwise. “Look at the good things that came from,” the Charleston church massacre, chirps Duffy, as if lowering that odious flag somehow — what? — balances things out?

Imagine how offensive that must be to anyone who lost someone in that church.

The lengths to which some will go to protect the fiction of innocence are staggering.

White terrorism is not as bad as Muslim terrorism?

Well, because of white terrorism, Emily Lyons lost an eye. Abdelkrim Hassane’s three young children lost their father. And Cynthia Wesley, age 14, had her head torn off.

So they might beg to differ.

Dual purpose To the editor: In the Feb.7 edition there were two stories that I feel should become one. The first article was that the city was to buy the Santa Fe depot, which would have to remain a depot with a lobby area for Amtrak travelers’ use. The other was about the city and Greyhound looking for a new bus stop area. Why cannot the Santa Fe depot serve a dual purpose to serve as a depot for both? This would be an off-road site as easy, if not easier, than just a right of way downtown.

Lying Trump supports a racket Washington — The technique has been called (by this columnist) “immunity through profusion.” By keeping the molten lava of falsehoods flowing, the volcano that is Donald Trump can inundate the public and overwhelm his auditors’ capacity to produce a comparable flow of corrections. This technique was on display the other day when the president met with some sheriffs.

He treated them to a whopper that is one of his hardy perennials, markettested during the campaign: He said the U.S. murder rate is “the highest it’s been in 47 years.” (Not even close: The rate — killings per 100,000? residents — is far below the rates in the 1970s and 1980s.)

This Trump Truth (Sen. Eugene McCarthy’s axiom: Anything said three times in Washington becomes a fact) distracted attention from his assertion to the sheriffs that there is “no reason” to reform law enforcement’s civil forfeiture practices.

There is no reason for the sheriffs to want to reform a racket that lines their pockets. For the rest of us, strengthening the rule of law and eliminating moral hazard are each sufficient reasons.

Civil forfeiture is the

power to seize property suspected of being produced by, or involved in, crime.

If property is suspected of being involved in criminal activity, law enforcement can seize it. Once seized, the property’s owners bear the burden of proving that they were not involved in such activity, which can be a costly and protracted procedure. So, civil forfeiture proceeds on the guilty-until-proven-innocent principle. Civil forfeiture forces property owners, often people of modest means, to hire lawyers and do battle against a government with unlimited resources.

And here is why the sheriffs probably purred contentedly when Trump endorsed civil forfeiture law — if something so devoid of due process can be dignified as law: Predatory law enforcement agencies can pocket the proceeds from

the sale of property they seize.

The Constitution’s Fifth Amendment says property shall not be taken without just compensation, and the 14th Amendment says it shall not be taken without due process of law. President Trump, 18 days from having sworn to “preserve, protect and defend” the Constitution, sympathized with the sheriffs’ complaint that they are being pressured to reform civil forfeiture practices.

These practices are a textbook example of moral hazard — of an incentive for perverse behavior. They give law enforcement a financial interest in the outcome of cases.

It is conceivable that Trump’s studiousness has been stretched too thin to encompass the facts of civil asset forfeiture. He says he would like to “look into” it.

Meanwhile, however, he is for it because he assumes “bad people” are behind the pressure for reform. And speaking of a Texas state legislator who favors reform, Trump said, “We’ll destroy his career.” Just another day on America’s steep ascending path back to greatness.

Muslim neighbors To the editor: I’d like to send a big thank you to the Islamic Center of Lawrence and the other groups who made the Feb. 4 event in South Park a success. We can only hope that Lawrence makes our Muslim neighbors feel as welcome as they made us feel. Kudos to everyone who contributed and to everyone who attended.

What do you call the Aryan Nations and the Ku Klux Klan? The Southern Poverty Law Center has tied one group, Stormfront, to acts of murder and terror that have killed nearly 100 people.

As for Duffy’s belief that white extremist terror is somehow rare, well, the 1996 bombing of the Atlanta Olympics, the 1999 attack on a Jewish community center near Los Angeles, the 2000 killing of five people in greater Pittsburgh to protest “non-white immigration,” the 2009 murders of three Pittsburgh police officers to oppose a supposed national gun ban, the 2012 murder of six people at a Sikh temple in Oak Creek, Wis., and the 2015 killing of three at a Planned Parenthood office in Colorado Springs, (to name a few), argue otherwise.

Go further back and there is the 1963 bombing of the 16th Street Baptist Church in Birmingham that killed four little girls. Go beyond these shores and there is the 2011 attack in Norway in which 77 people died.

Terrorism is defined as the unlawful use of violence to coerce or intimidate a government or a people in furtherance of some social or political cause.

The Future City organization has pledged to send the team’s three presenters, coaches and engineering mentor to nationals, which will take place Feb. 17-21. Lotton-Barker hopes to take the rest of the team with them, and a fundraising campaign set up by Southwest parents is working toward that goal.

As of last week, LottonBarker says, they were about halfway there.

As Teratai co-presenter, Bial is already guaranteed a spot at the competition. And she’s ready.

“It means a lot,” she says of competing. “It’s kind of crazy, continuing the legacy of Southwest.”

Donations to Southwest’s team can be made through PayPal at futurecitysw@gmail.com. Checks made out to “Future City SW” can be deposited at any Peoples Bank location.

Emily Bial, his other copresenter, agrees.

“I think we definitely learned a lot about problem-solving and how to work through when everybody has such different ideas,” she says. That, and learning “how to think about futuristic ideas in terms of the problems, because if we don’t think about the future, we aren’t going anywhere.”

She and her teammates have spent the past five months thinking about the future. There’s the future of Teratai, of course, and the less-distant future of the national Future City competition. Their process began in August, with work sessions during class and after school. Once January

The environment in Lotton-Barker’s classroom has traditionally been pretty “intense” this time of year, she says. One former student tracked the “thousands of hours” spent on Future City over the course of a school year. These kids are committed, she says, and she’s proud of them.

“I think because of the culture we’ve developed and the high expectations they have, they do extend an exceptional amount of work for this.

Price expects most of her friends to attend this weekend’s protest, which will begin at 7 p.m. in South Park before the march through downtown Lawrence at 7:30 p.m. She also expects a few community members to attend, too, and hopes the protest will, at the very least, get people talking.

“That’s step one,” Price said. “I think it’s always good to call your state officials. Just show up, and you have to be willing to listen to what the other person’s saying.”

not that simple. For many transgender youths, who already face a disproportionately high risk of suicide compared with the rest of the population, according to a study by the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention and the Williams Institute, school can act as a refuge — particularly, she said, for those who may not feel accepted at home.

“This is just something that a lot of people don’t understand,” Price said. Without the refuge of school, she said, “it could feel like there’s not a lot of places to go in terms of, ‘I don’t feel safe; where do I go?’”

Price, who belongs to

her school’s Total Equality Alliance, said she and fellow club members visited with the Lawrence school board last week to discuss issues facing LGBT youth.

Whitmer’s proposed bill, she said, was one of those issues. She said the school district seems to be following the legislation closely.

Part of the school district’s upcoming bond issue is the addition of genderneutral locker rooms and restrooms at Lawrence’s middle schools and high schools. Before any construction can begin, though, voters must first approve the $87 million projects (gender-neutral renovations account for a fraction of the total budget) in a May bond election. For now, some teachers at LHS have converted their staff restrooms into gender-neutral facilities, Price said.

FACT CHECK: TRUMP’S BOGUS TERRORIST CLAIM Brooks Jackson, Eugene Kiely, Lori Robertson and Robert Farley FactCheck.org

At a military base in Florida, President Trump complained that “radical Islamic” terrorist attacks are “not even being reported” by the “very, very dishonest press.” That’s nonsense.

White House press secretary Sean Spicer later revised Trump’s criticism by claiming the president was talking about terrorist attacks that have gone “underreported,” not unreported. But that’s not what the president said.

Trump and Spicer were both proved wrong when the White House produced a list of “underreported” terrorist attacks that contained numerous widely covered terrorist attacks in the past two years, including the Orlando, Fla., mass shooting that left 49 people dead and the San Bernardino, Calif., attack that killed 14.

The White House list also included the Nov. 13, 2015, attack in Paris that killed more than 130 people; the Bastille Day attack

last year in Nice, France, that killed 84 people; and the bombing attacks at an airport and on a subway train in Brussels on March 22, 2016, that killed at least 31 people. All were widely covered.

Trump made his remarks at MacDill Air Force Base.

Trump, Feb. 6: “Radical Islamic terrorists are determined to strike our homeland as they did on 9/11; as they did from Boston to Orlando, to San Bernardino. And all across Europe, you’ve seen what happened in Paris and Nice. All over Europe it’s happening. It’s gotten to a point where it’s not even being reported, and, in many cases, the very, very dishonest press doesn’t want to report it. They have their reasons, and you understand that.”

What terrorist attacks are “not even being reported”? When asked, Spicer backtracked and said Trump was complaining about “underreported attacks.”

Spicer, Feb. 6: “Look, I think the president’s comments were very clear at the time. He felt as though members of the media don’t always cover some of those events to the extent that other events might get covered, that a

President Trump made his claims about a lack of media coverage of terrorist attacks in this speech Monday in Tampa, Fla. protest will get blown out of the water, and yet an attack or a foiled attack doesn’t necessarily get the same coverage.”

The White House then provided a list of 78 attacks that were carried out by terrorists or suspected terrorists from September 2014 to December 2016. We searched Nexis, a news database,

for coverage of all 78 incidents and found tens of thousands of news articles, TV news transcripts and news wire accounts of the attacks and subsequent stories related to these attacks.

Several of the suspected terrorist attacks received so much global press coverage that Nexis could not return all search results — in-

stead it provided just a warning that the search would yield more than 3,000 results.

Besides the high-profile attacks mentioned earlier, the White House list included these incidents that yield more than 3,000 results in our Nexis search: uMichael Zehaf-Bibeau shot and killed a Canadian soldier in Ottawa in October 2014. The name “Michael Zehaf-Bibeau” was mentioned in more than 500 U.S. news and wire stories. uAmedy Coulibaly killed a police officer and four hostages in a shooting at a kosher supermarket in Paris. The name “Amedy Coulibaly” appeared in at least 1,400 U.S. news and wire reports. The New York Times alone wrote 22 front-page stories on the attack. uMan Haron Monis killed two hostages in December 2014 after taking over a downtown cafe in Sydney, Australia, for more than 16 hours. The attack was mentioned in nearly 500 U.S. news and wire reports.

We judge that Trump’s claim that terrorist attacks are “not even being reported” by the “very, very dishonest press” is unsupported by the facts.

Hundreds arrested in immigration raids v CONTINUED FROM 1B

In Austin, the Mexican consulate told the American-Statesman that 30 Mexican immigrants were detained by ICE on Friday, and 14 were detained Thursday.

By comparison, the Austin consulate had seen an average of four to five Mexican immigrants detained daily in recent years.

ICE officials insisted the arrests were routine operations carried out several times each year and targeted individual criminals, not communities. Gillian Christensen, acting press secretary for the Department of Homeland Security, said ICE “does not conduct sweeps or raids that target aliens indiscriminately,” KTLA reported.

Advocacy groups and some Democratic politicians, however, viewed the arrests as a new move against undocumented immigrants in the wake of a sweeping executive order signed Jan. 25 by President Trump.

curity or public safety and those who recently crossed the border.

“These reports show the serious consequences of (Trump’s) executive order, which allows all undocumented immigrants to be categorized as criminals and requires increased enforcement in communities, rather than prioritizing dangerous criminals,” Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., said in a statement.

“This is retaliatory, and it is a way to provide political cover — ‘Look what we’re doing, we’re out there being tough on criminals’ — when in reality, they’re breaking up families,” Rep. Raúl M. Grijalva, D-Ariz., told The Huffington Post. “It’s callous, and it’s very, very dangerous.”

The arrests are playing out against a backdrop of fear within immigrant communities, underscored by the deportation Thursday of an Arizona woman and mother of two American-born children who came to the U.S. 22 years ago as a 14-year-old.

Advocacy groups and some Democratic politicians viewed the arrests as a new move against undocumented immigrants in the wake of a sweeping executive order signed Jan. 25 by President Trump.

That order made clear that just about any immigrant living in the country illegally could be a priority for deportation, particularly those with outstanding deportation orders. It also said enforcement priorities would include convicted criminals, immigrants who had been arrested for any criminal offense, those who committed fraud, and anyone who might have committed a crime.

Under President Obama, more than 2 million people were deported, including a record of more than 409,000 in 2012, but the government focused on immigrants in the country illegally who posed a threat to national se-

The deportation of Guadalupe Garcia de Rayos, 36, of Mesa, Ariz., who was taken into custody Wednesday during a routine check-in at the Phoenix offices of ICE, prompted the Mexican government to warn of a “new reality” for its citizens living in the United States and advised them to “take precautions.”

Her removal also signaled that federal authorities, who have focused in recent years on the worst criminals for deportation, were lowering the bar. Rayos, who was convicted in 2008 of using a fake Social Security card, had been reporting regularly to immigration officials but until

Wednesday had been allowed to remain in the country.

Fears of a crackdown have been mired in recent days in something of a semantic game about what is — and isn’t — “routine” among advocacy groups, communities of immigrants and federal authorities.

U.S. Rep. Joaquin Castro, DTexas, said Friday that he was informed by ICE officials in San Antonio of the launch of “a targeted operation in South and Central Texas as part of Operation ‘Cross Check.’ ” “I am asking ICE to clarify whether these individuals are in fact dangerous, violent threats to our communities and not people who are here peacefully raising families and contributing to our state. I will continue to monitor this situation,” he said.

In Los Angeles, David Marin, field office director for ICE enforcement and removal operations in the Los Angeles area, announced Friday that 161 people were arrested in six Southern California counties over the past five days in what he called an “enforcement surge.” He denied reports that the operations amounted to mass arrests.

“The rash of these recent reports about ICE checkpoints and random sweeps and the like — it is all false, and it is definitely dangerous and irresponsible because reports like that create a panic, and they put communities and law enforcement at risk,” he told reporters on a conference call. He said the operation was planned prior to Trump taking office.

He said 151 of the arrests involved people with criminal records, with about 75% having been previously convicted of felonies, including child sex crimes, weapons charges and assault. Marin said five people were detained because they had final deportation orders already in place.

The other five people deported had no criminal record. Marin said those five would not have fallen under the enforcement priority list under Obama but did so now under Trump’s executive order.

groups, a unified Republican government in Washington marks a “once-in-a-generation opportunity to advance your agenda,” said Matt Johnson, a top Republican lobbyist at the powerhouse Podesta Group.

The frenzied start to the year represents a dramatic turnaround for the lobbying world.

In recent years, the slow pace of legislation on Capitol Hill and the economic downturn that followed the financial crisis helped slow lobbying activity. The number of registered lobbyists fell significantly — from 14,822 lobbyists in 2007 to 11,143 in 2016, according to the nonpartisan Center for Responsive Politics, which tracks money in politics.

“You are going to see spending up this year,” said Paul Miller, a lobbyist who serves as president of the industry’s trade group, the National Institute for Lobbying & Ethics. Miller, whose clients include small businesses and health care and transportation interests, said his “pace has been frenetic” in the first three weeks of the Trump presidency.

Companies are scrambling to cope with Trump’s moves, ranging from his blizzard of executive actions — totaling 26 as of late Thursday morning — to his penchant for tweeting his displeasure with individual corporations.

In one of the latest examples, Trump pushed out a tweet Wednesday slamming Nordstrom for dropping the fashion line of his daughter, Ivanka Trump, raising new questions about his commitment to separate his presidency from his family’s business interests.

The real estate and branding magnate has also positioned himself as deal maker in chief, willing to directly negotiate with firms, such as Indiana-based Carrier Corp., to boost American workers and products. On Wednesday, after meeting with Trump at the White House, Intel CEO Brian Krzanich said the chip maker planned to move ahead with plans to finish a factory in Arizona, adding 3,000 jobs.

“We’ve never had a president like this before,” Miller said. “To be polite about it, he’s an in-yourface kind of leader. If he doesn’t like what you are doing, you may pay for it in a tweet or a public comment in a press conference.”

Harlan Loeb, who plots crisis communications for companies at PR giant Edelman, said 30% of his calls in the past two weeks have come from clients seeking strategies on how to cope with potential administration actions that could endanger their bottom lines.

Loeb said the firm is working with companies to game out scenarios should they become the focus of a Trump tweet or executive move.

The Podesta Group’s Johnson said his firm is also working with corporations to “anticipate where criticism might come from next.”

Johnson, whose clients include tech, telecommunications and energy companies, said he has arranged client meetings with Trump officials, whom he de-

scribed as “receptive and accessible.” He would not disclose clients’ names.

“The secret here is taking the open door and walking right in and explaining why what you are doing is good for the American worker and the American people,” Johnson said. “Rather than fearing tweets, let’s get ahead of it and tell our story effectively.”

Miller said companies are also learning to push back on Trump, citing the dozens of Silicon Valley companies that banded together to help challenge Trump’s immigration ban in court.

“They are starting to figure out that ‘we don’t have to go along to get along here,’ ” he said.

Other advocacy groups are trying fresh tactics to get their messages to the president.

For instance, the liberal political group VoteVets decided to target Trump’s healthy television-watching appetite. The organization, which objects to moves to dismantle the Affordable Care Act and opposes Trump’s temporary travel ban from several predominantly Muslim countries, began advertising on MSNBC’s Morning Joe this week.

“We know he’s watching, and we can speak to him directly,” said Jon Soltz, the group’s chairman and an Iraq War veteran.

“We have a theory in the military: We always say, ‘Don’t fight the last war.’ Trump is a new battlefield, and you need to fight him in a different way.”

MONEY Wanted: A fresh AI Samsung S8 voice Siri to get a new rival with Bixby Ed Baig

Frank worries weakening law could lead to a new crash

ebaig@usatoday.com USA TODAY

NEW YORK OK, Google. Hey, Siri. What’s up, Bixby?

Bixby doesn’t have the name recognition of Apple’s Siri or the Google Assistant. That might change if rumors suggesting that a digital assistant called Bixby will be the new AI-infused helper inside Samsung’s next big flagship phone prove correct.

Samsung is expected to unveil the smartphone, presumably the Galaxy S8, in March, though the South Korean tech giant could tease its arrival later this month during the Mobile World Congress tech confab in Barcelona.

One thing that’s obvious: Samsung can’t aim the spotlight on a new phone fast enough, not after the pricey and embarrassing battery-gate debacle that was the Galaxy Note 7. Samsung recently cited design and manufacturing flaws from two unnamed suppliers as the reason some lithium-ion batteries inside the phones caught fire.

Whether it is called Bixby or something else, it appears a fresh voice-driven AI assistant will be one of the banner features inside Samsung’s new phone, hardly surprising given the race to raise the IQs for such brainy digital assistants.

Among the outstanding questions is whether Bixby will build on Samsung’s existing (and frankly underwhelming) SVoice feature; leverage the conversational-based voice technology from Viv Labs, a startup the company bought in October; or apply some combination.

I’ve certainly been impressed by early demos of Viv. But demos are demos, and the tech must prove itself in real-world use.

Equally unknown is how a user might summon Bixby.

There could be a dedicated button for such a purpose, or perhaps you’ll bark out wake words, along the lines of “OK Google” and “Hey Siri.”

Samsung remains mum publicly on Bixby or other features that might be coming, but there’s certainly no shortage of rumors.

The likelihood is that you’ll see not one but two new S8 models, with the larger pushing screen size well past 6 inches.

Samsung’s playbook through the past several iterations has been to introduce a standard Galaxy S model and a Galaxy S version with a secondary curved-edge display.

Citing unnamed sources, the Wall Street Journal says there will only be curved display models this time around, albeit in the different screen sizes.

Former lawmaker Barney Frank says he thinks the repeal of financial protections passed in 2010 could trigger another crash.

Former Rep. Barney Frank, DMass., and former Sen. Chris Dodd, D-Conn., co-sponsored a law that’s now being targeted.

Roger Yu

@ByRogerYu USA TODAY

Barney Frank, 76, is retired, hopscotching around the world for speeches and conferences.

But the former Democratic congressman from Massachusetts is speaking out, worried that President Trump’s assault on one of Frank’s signature legislative achievements could trigger another financial crash.

In 2010, Frank, then the House Financial Services Committee chairman, joined with Sen. Chris Dodd, D-Conn., to co-sponsor and spearhead passage of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act. The law introduced sweeping changes in the financial industry, ranging from limits on risky loans and predatory lending to establishing a powerful watchdog agency, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.

Earlier this month, President Trump signed executive orders to roll back key financial regulations of the Obama era, including restrictions in DoddFrank.

In an interview, Frank said he’d welcome a few changes, particularly for small banks, but warned that significant changes could again encourage risky behavior and unleash a severe recession. His comments are edited for clarity and length.

Q

CHIP SOMODEVILLA, GETTY IMAGES

Should consumers be concerned about the Trump administration’s efforts to roll back Dodd-Frank?

Why?

Consumers who have dealings with banks and other financial institutions should be very worried about (Dodd-Frank) being abolished. If you don’t keep the rules we have in place to restrain irresponsible risk-taking, you’ll have, at some point, another crash.

Q

Trump and Republican lawmakers are intent on weakening the CFPB, saying its rules inhibit lending. Any validity to their argument?

The CFPB’s sole purpose is to protect consumers. And the uncontroversial figure is that, in the years it’s been in place, it saved consumers $12 billion.

(Before 2008), banks lent money to people who couldn’t pay them back to make money short-term. The banks sold the loans. Those people who bought

them then bought credit default swaps, a form of insurance.

You’ve got this whole chain of financial derivatives. And it all came crashing down.

We outlawed bad loans. Banks are still free to lend as long as they can show that the people they’re lending to can pay it back.

QThere is a set of rules that say What are vital components of the law and why?

financial institutions can’t take action that will leave them with so much risk that they won’t be able pay it off. So there’s restriction on these irresponsible subprime loans.

We also said if you get involved in these derivatives transactions … you have to do it a responsible way. If you promise to pay off someone if a security goes bad, you have to have money for that.

Q

Speculation is that the administration will also roll back rules that more di-

rectly affect consumers, such as payday lending limits and banning financial companies from imposing mandatory arbitration. Your thoughts?

I’m very worried about those, particularly about arbitration.

Compulsory arbitration is very unfair to consumers. I’m afraid that it’s going to be weakened.

QSmaller banks — under $10 bilWhat are some changes you’d welcome?

lion in assets — are spending more money than they should to comply with parts of the law that don’t really affect them. Four years ago, one of the regulators said, ‘Let’s exempt them from some of these.’ I’d agree with that.

QI was never in favor of the Any other changes you’d support?

amendment that had the Federal Reserve regulate the amount banks charge retailers (for credit card swipe fees). That was supposed to be consumer protection.

I don’t think that is.

Q

The Volcker Rule, which prohibits banks from using customer deposits to engage in “proprietary” trading of speculative securities, is also being targeted by the industry. Critics say it’s too complicated. Your thoughts?

I would exempt banks under $10 billion (in assets) from it.

There’s some hypocrisy here. One of the things they’re trying to argue is that it hurts lending. The Volcker Rule tells banks to stop derivatives trading and lend.

Nordstrom workers donated to Dems Clinton, Sanders got more in 2016 race than Trump did Kevin McCoy and Christopher Schnaars USA TODAY

Nordstrom says it dropped Ivanka Trump’s brand because the dresses, heels and jewelry weren’t big sellers. But the decision nonetheless aligned with the political views of some of the upscale retail chain’s employees.

President Trump, Ivanka’s father, finished a distant third among Nordstrom workers who made individual campaign contributions during the presidential race, a USA TODAY analysis of 2015-16 Federal Election Commission data shows.

Democrat Hillary Clinton, a former U.S. secretary of State, took first place, receiving $38,232 from 60 donors whose employer was identified in the data as Nordstrom. Sen. Bernie

Sanders, I-Vt., also a Democratic contender, claimed second place, collecting $13,196 from 33 contributors.

Trump collected $2,556 from 17 Nordstrom donors, the campaign financial data show.

The employees joined Erik Nordstrom, a co-president of the company, who gave $2,700 to Clinton’s campaign last year.

Shellye Archambeau, a Nordstrom board member and CEO of Metricstream, similarly gave $1,000 to Clinton in 2016, the FEC data show.

The 110 Nordstrom-employee donors represent a fraction of the company’s roughly 76,000 fulland part-time employees, so their political opinions aren’t necessarily a proxy for the collective views of all their work colleagues.

Nordstrom had no comment on the political contributions.

However, Co-Presidents Peter, Blake and Erik Nordstrom sent a Jan. 31 email to company employees that broadly characterized the chain’s workforce while referring to Trump’s executive order that temporarily restricts immigration from seven Muslimmajority countries.

“We literally have thousands of employees who are first and second generation immigrants,” the email said. “Every one of your unique qualities brings a richness that allows us to better reflect

and serve the multi-cultured communities we’re a part of and ultimately makes us a better company.”

The message ended with a promise of support for employees directly or indirectly affected by the new restrictions.

Nordstrom announced its decision on Ivanka Trump’s fashion line Feb. 2 amid what the company characterized as sales that have “steadily declined to the point where it didn’t make good business sense for us to continue with the line for now.”

The decision displeased her father. Trump fired back Wednesday, tweeting: “My daughter Ivanka has been treated so unfairly by @Nordstrom. She is a great person — always pushing me to do the right thing!

Terrible!”

More than 60 companies have been targets of Trump Twitter criticism since his November election victory, according to a Yahoo Finance tally.

The Seattle-based company suffered no signs of any major financial hit from the White House ire. Nordstrom shares ended the week 2.5% higher at $45.

PERSONAL FINANCE HOW MUCH DO YOU NEED TO FUND RETIREMENT?

2016 TAX YEAR

Have you considered doing your own taxes?

MORE THAN YOU THINK

Time, complexity factor into do-ityourself decision Kay Bell

NerdWallet

One of the biggest decisions taxpayers face each year is how to file their returns.

Last year, 86%, or nearly 132 million, of returns were filed with tax software. But most of those computer-prepared and efiled returns — almost 79 million — were completed by tax professionals.

Why hire a tax pro to do your taxes online when you can use similar software to do the job yourself? Here are four questions to help you decide.

Don’t shoot the researchers: A new study indicates that those saving for retirement will need to dramatically increase the percentage they save if they want to fund their desired standard of living in retirement Robert Powell

Special to USA TODAY

Consider: Americans save on average 5.5% and 401(k) plan participants deferred, on average, 6.8% of their salaries into retirement plans in 2015.

But those savings rates are far below what’s needed to fund retirement given today’s markets, according to researchers — David Blanchett, head of retirement research at Morningstar Investment Management; Michael Finke, dean and chief academic officer at The American College of Financial Services; and Wade Pfau, a professor of retirement income at The American College of Financial Services.

Indeed, the researchers showed that a 35-year-old couple with household income of $50,000 would need to save pretax about 11.1% to 13.1% to maintain their standard of living, while the same couple with household income of $100,000 would need to save 13.4% to 16.8%.

What gives?

Several factors are to blame.

1Paying a tax professional can add HOW MUCH ARE YOU WILLING TO SPEND?

but also reduces the income a person can expect to receive once that goal is reached.

For instance, a 35-yearold who earns $50,000 and who will experience real wage growth of 1% per year for a 30year career, followed by a 30-year retirement, could draw down, assuming a real return of 0%, just $28,988 per year compared to $46,938 with a 6% expected rate of return.

“For savers, lower returns mean less spending across the life cycle,” Finke said.

“They spend less during their working years because they need to save more.

During retirement, their goal should be to spend about the same as they did during their working years. Even though they’ll be spending less, they need an even higher nest egg when investment returns are low.

There’s really nothing good about low returns if you’re a saver. If you’re a borrower, it’s great news.”

“Retirement is significantly more expensive in a low-return environment, but it is even more expensive if a person lives longer.”

INCREASED LONGEVITY MAKES RETIRING COST MORE

ISTOCKPHOTO

LOW FUTURE INVESTMENT RETURNS

Valuations on risky assets (stocks) are high, and yields on safe assets (bonds) are low. And that, the researchers say, portends an era of lower expected returns in the future. What’s more, the researchers say high asset prices and expected lower returns affect the relative cost of funding financial goals.

“For example, assume a household earns $50,000 at age 25, expects a 3% annual growth rate in income and wants $1 million in purchasing power after age 65,” the researchers wrote in their report, Required Retirement Savings Rates Today.

“If they expect a 5% real return on investments, they will save 10% of their income each year. If they expect 2%, they will need to save 18% of their income each year to reach their $1 million goal.”

RETIREMENT INCOME LOWER, TOO

The researchers also note that a persistently low-return environment not only increases the percentage of income a person needs to save to meet a retirement goal

That life expectancies for older Americans have increased over the past 100 years and are projected to continue increasing isn’t helping those saving for retirement, either.

“Today’s workers who expect to retire at the same age as retirees in previous generations will face an even greater cost of funding retirement because of increases in longevity after the age of 65,” the researchers wrote.

“Retirement is significantly more expensive in a low-return environment, but it is even more expensive if a person lives longer.”

In fact, the researchers calculated that the price of a dollar of safe income for a person retiring today is nearly 100% higher (or twice as high today) than it was for a person retiring in 2000 because of increases in longevity and declines in real bond interest rates.

“Not only are investors getting less return on their safe bond investments,” Finke said, “they’re also living longer, so they need to fund more years of spending. The bottom line is that retirement is just more expensive today than it was in the past.”

David Blanchett, head of retirement research at Morningstar Investment Management in Chicago.

Michael Finke, dean and chief academic officer at The American College of Financial Services.

LEGACY GOALS ARE EXPENSIVE ADDITION

The researchers also note that trying to create a sum of money to pass down, to bequest, to loved ones and others on top of funding a desired lifestyle in retirement is also quite expensive in a high asset price/low expected returns world.

“For those who want to leave $500,000 to their heirs, they’ll simply need to save more. Low rates also increase the cost of buying a life insurance policy to fund a legacy.”

So what are savers to do in this low-return, long-longevity world?

Wade Pfau, a professor of retirement income at The American College of Financial Services.

uUse lower expected rates of return when calculating how much you need to save for retirement and how much income you’ll be able to draw down once in retirement. uConsider increasing sharply the amount you save now (that means lowering your current standard of living) to fund your desired standard of living in retirement. uConsider using an income annuity instead of using a bond ladder for your safe assets. Why? The researchers suggest that annuitization becomes a relatively more attractive option when interest rates are low.

“This is because the increase in the cost of building a bond ladder is greater than the increase in the cost of buying an income annuity in a low-rate environment,” the researchers wrote. “With a bond ladder, retirees spend principal and interest. With an income annuity, retirees spend principal, interest, and mortality credits, which are the subsidies from the short-lived to the long-lived.

With interest low in both situations, the mortality credits become more important.” uHigh earners need to save even more than low earners to fund their desired standard of living. For example, a single 40year-old person earning $50,000 would need to save 19.4% in a low-return world to fund a desired lifestyle in retirement, while that same person earning $100,000 would need to save 25.6%. uRetiring later, at age 70, lowers the percentage you need to save. For instance, a single 35year-old person with household income of $50,000 who wants to retire at 60 needs to save 19.1% per year to fund their desired lifestyle in retirement, or 15.8% if they want to retire at 65, or 10.6% if they want to retire at 70.

up, especially if your filing requires a lot of forms and time. A National Society of Accountants survey in 2015 found the average fee to complete a Form 1040 with itemized deductions on Schedule A and a state tax return was $273.

That’s along the lines of IRS estimates, which found the cost of filing a 1040 was $270.

You can buy tax software for less than $100. Discounts common during tax season can slash the retail price even more. And if your adjusted gross income falls below $64,000, you can use the IRS’ Free File, which, as the name suggests, allows you to prepare and file your taxes at no cost.

2 The dollar cost to do your taxes is HOW MUCH TIME DO YOU HAVE?

worth consideration, but don’t forget the value of your time.

The IRS estimates you’ll need 16 hours to complete a Form 1040. That’s the individual return that, according to the IRS, 69% of us use. The hours to complete this longest of the three options take into account gathering records, tax planning and filling out and submitting the return.

If you use a tax preparer, you’ll also have to commit some time to gathering tax statements and other material. But once you deliver the necessary documents, you’ll have more time for other tasks.

3 If you’re a single filer who rents HOW COMPLEX (OR NOT) IS YOUR TAX LIFE?

an apartment, and your workplace 401(k) is your only investment, tax software should work fine. Even when things get a bit more complex — you get married, have a child and itemize deductions for the first time — most software will walk you through these tax situations. But if you run your own business, either as your main job or on the side, buy a home, or inherit property, it’s probably a good time to get some personal tax advice and guidance.

While comprehensive tax software can handle these more complex tax situations, it cannot talk with you about your plans that could affect your taxes. A tax professional, however, can outline what might happen if you want to donate rather than sell the stock your Uncle Henry left to you. A tax adviser can offer insight into tax law changes that might affect you and whether you should make certain moves now or wait.

4

ARE YOU READY, WILLING AND ABLE TO DEAL WITH THE IRS?

By signing your tax return, you are responsible for all the information on the forms. If you do your taxes yourself, that means you’re the one the IRS will come to with any questions — possibly years after you’ve filed.

A tax pro, however, can be your point person. By filling out a line on your 1040, you can direct the IRS to bring any questions about the filing to your tax preparer. If you want to go further, you can give certain kinds of tax preparers — enrolled agents, CPAs, attorneys — power of attorney to represent you before the IRS.

Woman confused when hubby ‘announces’ affair Dear Annie: I am in the process of getting a divorce after 38 years of marriage.

I’m wondering whether you could help me understand the way in which my husband ‘’announced’’ he is having an affair. We went to a small-town festival, and he introduced me to a woman. I could tell there was something going on. Later that day, he said that yes, he finds her very attractive. (I should mention that she’s just two years older than our daughter.)

So I’m just trying to understand why he would do this to me and why this girl would want to meet me. She’s also married, and supposedly her husband doesn’t know about their affair.

I am just having a difficult time understand-

Just think how miserable your husband and his new girlfriend must be to act like such bullies.

John Legend, Metallica, Carrie Underwood, Keith Urban, Adele and Bruno Mars are scheduled to perform. Beyonce has received nine nominations, followed by Drake, Rihanna and Kanye West with eight and Chance the Rapper with seven. Look for special tributes to Prince and George Michael, who died in 2016.

At first glance it seems like the Grammys have driven ABC and NBC into their respective foxholes.

They will air movies — ‘‘The Blind Side’’ (7 p.m., ABC) and ‘‘Fast & Furious 6’’ (7 p.m., NBC) — instead of their regular programming.

On the other hand, this may be in reaction to the return of the stupendously popular cable series ‘‘The Walking Dead’’ (8 p.m., AMC, TV-MA), now in the second half of its seventh season. Spoiler alert: Something grotesque is bound to happen!

O ‘‘The Missing’’ (7 p.m. Sunday, Starz, TV-MA), one of the outstanding series of 2014, returns with a whole new mystery set in a different locale. A woman abducted as a child from a British Army base in Germany returns 10 years later and may have knowledge of another woman’s whereabouts.

Am I the only one suffering from title confusion? There was a 2003 film called ‘‘The Missing’’ and another from 1982 called ‘‘Missing.’’ There’s also the excellent French police thriller ‘‘The Disappearance’’ and two seasons of the French mystery ‘‘The Returned.’’

O ‘‘Girls’’ (9 p.m., HBO, TVMA) returns for its sixth and final season. Hannah (Lena Dunham) gets a writing job covering a snobby clique of yoga moms out to learn surfing in the Hamptons.

For Sunday, Feb. 12: This year you are more likely to dream and have that dream become a reality. You have the ability to act on different possibilities. Your childlike side often emerges, which creates more excitement. Others are drawn to you, as you certainly are not boring to be around. If you are single, you will have your share of suitors all year long. Y If you are attached, the two of you enjoy each other’s company, but you don’t always agree.

The stars show the kind of day you’ll have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult Aries (March 21-April 19) ++++ Emotional extremes run parallel with misunderstandings.

Tonight: Mentally prepare yourself for tomorrow.

bies born to friends (millennial to middle age).

That doesn’t include the gifts we gave for birthdays or the holidays.

A ‘’thank you’’ of some type would have been nice. Please tell your readers that if someone takes the time to send a gift, a quick ‘’thank you’’ by some means is proper etiquette and very appreciated. Or the next time, they won’t get anything. — Beachside Suzi Dear Beachside: You are not the first — and you won’t be the last — to write me about this trend.

DEATHS Kelley Curtiss Kelley Jean Curtiss, 87, passed away in Lawrence, KS, on February 5, 2017.

Kelley was born on March 28, 1929, to Cleo and Naomi (Robinson) Curtiss of Hutchinson, KS. His beloved wife of 60 years, Eva Louise (Lawson) Curtiss, preceded him in death in 2013.

Kelley was raised in Hutchinson and graduated from Hutchinson High School in 1947. He received an associate degree from Hutchinson Community College and served four years in the Naval Reserve. Kelley worked in the familyowned paint store in Hutchinson and later in Colorado Springs. For many years he was a route man for Betts Bakery Rainbow Bread. He was also a sales representative for General Portland Cement, Machinery and Supply Co., Midwest Fly Ash, and LaFarge North America.

During his career, the family lived in Hutchinson, Salina, Pittsburg, Topeka, and Guthrie, OK. The most treasured gift Kelley shared with his family and friends was his love of music.

A life-long member of

the United Methodist Church, Kelley’s beautiful Irish tenor was heard in churches across Kansas.

He was a choir director in Hutchinson and sang in the Messiah in Lindsborg. Also, he and Eva sang in the Country Spirit Band. The family often gathered at the Walnut Valley Festival in Winfield, KS. In Guthrie, Kelley was a member of the Okie Dokie Banjo Band and helped found the Banjo Jazz Festival and the Banjo Hall of Fame. Kelley and Eva enjoyed dancing together throughout their marriage. In addition to music, Kelley loved sailing, fishing, and being with his family.

Kelley is survived by seven children, Ronald (Amelia) Curtiss of Guatemala City, GT; Cleon Curtiss of Colorado

Springs, CO; Melody Curtiss (Jamie Beletz) of Washington, D.C.; Kelley (Myra) Curtiss of Colwich, KS; Kevin (Darcy) Curtiss of Kansas City, KS; Patrick (Martha Coffman) Curtiss of Lawrence, KS; and Lyric (Larry) Bartz of Lawrence, KS. His quirky humor will be particularly missed by his thirty-six grandchildren and fourteen great grandchildren. He also leaves behind two sisters, Patricia Trantham, Valley Center, KS, and Donna Adcock, McPherson, KS, as well as many nieces and nephews.

The family will gather for a private celebration of life that will include lots of singing, stories, and laughter.

In lieu of flowers, the family requests memorial donations be made to the Alzheimer’s Foundation of America, 322 8th Ave. 7th Floor, New York, NY 10001.

today. In retirement, he decided to develop some land in west Wichita, and that project kept him busy for several years.

Harold loved his four children deeply.

He taught them how to win graciously, how to lose and not give up, and most importantly, how to follow their own individual paths.

Harold leaves behind his beloved dog, Dudley, who served as the perfect sidekick in his later years. Harold also is survived by his son, Stephen Allen Wood II and his wife, Leslie Hume, of Austin, Texas; daughter Molly Mead Wood and her companion, Gregg D. Smith, of Lawrence; daughter Winifred Wood Noakes and her husband,

Brad Noakes, of Wichita; son Andrew Tucker Wood and his wife, Laura Thomas, of Chapel Hill, North Carolina; brotherin-law William Page Pitt of Overland Park, Kansas; seven grandchildren; and one great-grandchild.

Harold P. Wood, Jr. Harold P. Wood, Jr. died peacefully on February 9, 2017, in Lawrence, Kansas. Harold was a long-time resident of Wichita before moving to Lawrence, where he lived in the loving and steadfast care of his daughter, Molly Wood, for the last three years.

Harold was born on January 22, 1928, in Dyersburg, Tennessee.

His parents – Harold, Sr. and Dorothy Allen Wood – were native Kansans from Elmdale, Chase County. Harold, Sr. was a county agent, so the family lived in several communities in North Carolina and Tennessee when their youngest child was growing up. Finally, they settled in Knoxville, Tennessee. Harold, Jr.

graduated from Central High School, where he also played basketball, and then he earned his degree from the University of Tennessee. In college, he met his sweetheart, Julia Belle Tucker. They married in 1950, a union that lasted 63 years until Julie’s untimely death in 2014.

Soon after Harold and Julie married, the Korean War intervened. Harold

served as a lieutenant in the U.S. Army. Two children, Steve and Molly, were born in Tennessee.

The family moved to Wichita in 1956 when Harold joined Boeing Aircraft Co. as an engineer. He soon shifted to the personnel department, because of his ability to deal with people and solve problems. Two more children, Winnie and Andy, were born in Wichita.

In 1970, Harold used his experiences and talents to start his own business – Dunhill of Wichita – a personnel service that placed hundreds of engineers and computer specialists in jobs in Wichita and around the country.

In 1972, Harold’s brotherin-law, Bill Pitt, formed

Every life is worth celebrating

Dunhill of Topeka, and they worked in partnership for a number of years. Harold retired in 1998.

Harold’s great strength was that he had definite ideas and was not afraid to pursue them. A child of the South, he coached basketball for an allblack church in Wichita for many years, fighting segregation in his own quiet way. Many Little Leaguers remember him fondly as their coach. He and Julie sponsored students from historically black colleges, so they could get summer jobs in Wichita. Harold was enchanted by geodesic domes, so he and Julie built their geodesic dome house on Ridge Road in Wichita. It’s still there

OH MY, JOSH KANSAS 80, TEXAS TECH 79

KANSAS GUARD JOSH JACKSON, LEFT, IS FOULED ON THE DRIVE BY TEXAS TECH forward Zach Smith late in the game. The foul put Jackson at the free-throw line, where he hit the second of two shots to give KU a one-point lead and, ultimately, an 80-79 victory Saturday in Lubbock, Texas.

Jackson carries KU past Tech

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

Lubbock, Texas — If Saturday was any indication of how the upcoming year of his life is going to go, Kansas freshman Josh Jackson is in for a heck of a ride.

One day after celebrating his 20th birthday, Jackson, who admitted he woke up “feeling a little bit old” on Friday, erupted for 31 points, including the game-winning free throw with 2.8 seconds to play, to help No. 3 Kansas sneak past Texas Tech, 80-79, at United Supermarkets Arena.

Despite building leads of as many as 12 points in the first half and 10 points in the second, the Jayhawks (22-3 overall, 10-2 Big 12) found themselves in a wild, back-and-forth nail-biter during the final 10 minutes of the game.

And just about every time the Jayhawks needed a play, it was Jackson

Rookie doesn’t play like one

who delivered, scoring 11 of his game-high 31 points in the final 10 minutes, including a four-point stretch that put the Jayhawks ahead 79-77 and set the stage for the final free throw.

After missed free throws by Landen Lucas and Jackson and a turnover and missed shot by Texas Tech (16-9, 4-8), which kept the score tied 79-all, Devonté Graham grabbed a rebound with 15 seconds left and the frantic final seconds began.

“I told ’em, just go score when we got the rebound, and wasn’t gonna use it,” Self said of KU’s final timeout. “And then Devonté hesitated and Josh, he was at halfcourt, so I figured we better use one. I drew up a crap play in the first (timeout), which I guarantee wouldn’t have worked, and then we kind of got

KANSAS GUARD JOSH JACKSON (11) puts his arm around > JAYHAWKS, 4C teammate Frank Mason III during a timeout.

Lubbock, Texas — Josh Jackson arrived at Kansas with a sophisticated basketball mind and perpetually revved motor, but in the months of November and December he flashed teenager moments.

He quickly gained a reputation as a hothead with referees, who slapped him with technical fouls to show who’s boss. At other times, he charged full speed ahead right into a defender who already had established position.

He was a teenager then. He turned 20 Friday and said he felt older when he woke up.

Nothing about the way Jackson took over the game Saturday afternoon in United Supermarkets Arena and led Kansas to an 80-79 victory against Texas Tech had a trace of teenager to it.

Freshmen do grow up, and Jackson played very much like a senior on

Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

his way to a long NBA career.

He played all but about 20 seconds, didn’t get whistled for a single charge against a team skilled at drawing them, had the ball in his hands a ton and committed just one turnover on his way to a 31-point, 11-rebound, four-assist masterpiece on 12-of-15 shooting.

The 13,806 spectators saw him at his very best and will think about the game when they’re channel surfing and stumble on an NBA game a year or 10 from now.

Afterward, Texas

Firebirds 2nd, Lions 6th at Sunflower League wrestling

By Shane Jackson sjackson@ljworld.com

Overland Park — Free State senior Nick Eddis wasn’t wasting any time.

As soon as the referee lifted his arm up, signaling him as the victor, Eddis made his way to the stands. There he was greeted with congratulations from his family,

including his great-grandparents, who made the trip to Shawnee Mission South to watch him become a Sunflower League champion Saturday.

“My grandma gave me three taps over her heart, which means I love you, which is a thing we do,” Eddis said. “Having family from out of town, where I don’t see them,

definitely gives you that edge. If they are going to come all this way out for me, I’m going to give them something to take back with them.”

Eddis certainly lived up to his own promise, sealing a first-place finish in the 220-pound weight class at the league tournament. He was the only champion for Free State,

which finished second as a team with a total of 197 points, well behind Olathe North’s mark of 231.5. It was the third straight year the Firebirds have placed in the top three.

Though his path had less roadblocks than most, Eddis made sure to make quick work of his time on the mat. After

consecutive byes in the first two rounds, Eddis pinned his opponent from SM West within 80 seconds in the semifinals.

In the title match, Eddis downed Matt Burks, of Olathe North, within 1:32, to seal his first league title of his career.

He’s the school’s second league champion since

2007. Prior to Saturday, the closest Eddis got was a fourth-place finish as a sophomore after not competing his junior year due to an injury he sustained in football.

“For Nick to not be in our varsity lineup last year and to come out ready to go was great,”

Warriors 130, Thunder 114 Oklahoma City — Kevin Durant scored 34 points while being booed throughout his return to Oklahoma City, and Golden State beat the Thunder in a chippy game on Saturday night.

It was Durant’s first game back since he left the Thunder after eight seasons in Oklahoma City to join the rival Warriors as a free agent last summer. The crowd jeered him loudly during pregame warmups, starter introductions and whenever he touched the ball.

Emotions ran high throughout the game. At one point in the third quarter, Durant and Oklahoma City’s Russell Westbrook yelled at each other as they walked toward their benches during a timeout. Later in the third quarter, Oklahoma City’s Andre Roberson fouled Durant hard, and the two got in each other’s faces and were called for double technicals.

Westbrook finished with 47 points, 11 rebounds and eight assists.

Back from a four-game road trip, the Cavs didn’t find their range until after halftime, when they opened the third with an 18-0 run to take control.

Harden made three 3-pointers in the third quarter, capped by one from the top of the key with about 30 seconds left that gave him 40 points.

The Mavericks won for the sixth time in eight games — including three victories against division leaders — in what’s becoming a turnaround season.

KANSAS 80, TEXAS TECH 79

KANSAS GUARD JOSH JACKSON (11) DEFENDS THE BUCKET OVER TEXAS TECH GUARD Keenan Evans late in the second half of KU’s 80-79 victory Saturday at United Supermarkets Arena in Lubbock, Texas.

Jayhawks

know; I thought there was an illegal screen to get him open. That’s why we called a timeout. When we saw the setup we knew that screen would be there, so I told Justin, ‘Don’t flop. Respect the game. Play the game. But if you get hit, take the hit.’

“So I was disappointed we didn’t get the call.

But it’s not an excuse, it’s just what happened. You asked the question, I’m answering. Then with Jackson, he’s just a special player, one-on-one.

He just made a move and Zach had to make a play.

It’s either let him lay it in or make a play. But I didn’t have a great look at it. Those were three good officials today. I thought they called a nice game.”

Lucas agreed with that last part and said he thought the screen was clean.

“A hundred percent,”

Lucas said. “I was set the whole time. He just ran into me.”

That’s how it will go down in the history books and the Jayhawks certainly will take it, especially on a day when leading scorer and team leader Frank Mason III played through an illness and fouled out with 3:05 to play.

“With Frank being a little under the weather and fouled out, I just had to come out and make a couple extra shots,” Jackson said of his careerhigh game that came on 12-of-15 shooting from the floor, 2-of-4 from 3-point range and 5-of-7 from the free throw line.

Of Jackson’s final free throw, which came after missing the first of two shots with 2.8 seconds to play — his second free throw miss in the final minute after making his

first four of the day — his teammates said they knew he would make it and Jackson did his best to follow their lead.

“It was a big moment in the game, of course,” he said. “But after I missed the first one, I just tried not to think about missing it too much.... I just kept telling myself to knock it down and that’s what happened.”

It was evident from the jump that Jackson was poised for a big game. He looked locked in defensively, was aggressive on the offensive end and hit the glass on both sides to pace the Jayhawks in the early going.

He scored KU’s first six points on 3-of-3 shooting and added two rebounds, including a dunk off of an offensive rebound to get the scoring started.

Jackson opened the second half much like he

opened the first, playing fast, attacking the rim and finishing another monster follow-dunk of a Mason miss in transition that nearly brought down the basket.

After leading 34-22 late in the first half, Kansas took a 42-35 lead into the locker room. The Jayhawks opened the second half with an 11-6 run to reclaim a double-digit lead at 52-41 on Mason’s first basket of the game with 15:45 to play. But 6:44 later, the lead was gone and Kansas trailed.

The Jayhawks never got behind by more than four points in the final 10 minutes, thanks in large part to some big-time work on the offensive glass by both Jackson and Lucas.

On one possession, with KU trailing by four with 7:30 to play, Lucas grabbed a missed three

by Mason, kicked it out to Graham, who missed a three of his own, only to see Jackson grab that miss and fire back out to Mason, who made good on his next try to pull the Jayhawks within a point.

“Those extra possessions are huge,” said Lucas, who finished with 13 points and five rebounds in 30 minutes. “Especially at the end of the game.”

From that point on, neither team again trailed by more than a single possession, and, instead of backing down from the big moment and letting someone else make or break the Jayhawks’ fate,

does set himself apart in this respect: There never has been one who unpacked his bags to the CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1C same extent as Jackson.

No one else quite Tech coach Chris Beard ranks with him in terms was rightly proud of his of both giving and reexperienced players for ceiving as much from the doing what they did to experience as Jackson. slow down Frank Mason Joel Embiid, more III, win the battle of the raw than Jackson when boards, and turn it over he arrived, improved at just twice in the second a more rapid rate, but half. injuries ended his season Deeply impressed prematurely. Andrew would be the best words Wiggins in many ways to describe the Tech seemed to approach his coach’s take on Jackson. stay as a layover on the “I thought about asking way to the NBA. him after the game, ‘Hey, Xavier Henry brought Jackson, can I borrow a a good attitude and grew couple hundred dolhis game, but doesn’t lars? I’ll pay you back have the athleticism or next year when you’re quite the same motor as in Lubbock,’ ‘cause he’s Jackson, and wasn’t as not coming back to Lubready for the jump to the bock,” Beard said.

NBA. True. Chances are, Jackson’s been all in Jackson won’t ever step from Day One, and it foot back in Lubbock. shows in how steadily The same can be said he has improved the past for the rest of KU’s onethree weeks. and-done players regardWith a game so ading Lubbock. But Jackson vanced in so many ways,

it was easy to forget he was a teenager when his competitive spirit and pumping adrenaline would get the best of him. But he was a teenager, and teenagers by definition sometimes do things that experience teaches them to count to 10 before doing again.

“From where he came earlier the year, he plays so hard, he’s competitive, it took him awhile to kind of understand college officiating, but now he acts great on the floor,” Beard said. “He acts like a pro. He lets the game come to him.

From where I was sitting, I don’t think he forced one shot.”

Good point. Nothing about the freshman’s 40 minutes seemed forced.

Jackson drove hard to the hoop early for points and when the lane became clogged, he stayed under control and found open shooters in the corners, again making me think that point guard

one day could become his long-range NBA position. One beauty to his approach is that he never plays like someone auditioning for the NBA. He plays like a kid desperate to win, and in this game he did so with Mason on the bench, disqualified by five fouls.

Desperate to win, yet under control: a sign of growth.

“Josh is kind of a highrisk, high-reward player,” Kansas coach Bill Self said. “His assists-to-turnovers (ratio) will never be 3-or-4-to-1 over the course of a season because he’s going to take his chances, which we like, but today I thought he picked his spots really wisely.”

The most entertaining spot Jackson picked to try an aggressive play came in the second half when he took a defensive rebound out of the sky, quickly wound up and fired an outlet pass that Devonté Graham chased down and flipped back to

Lagerald Vick for a dunk.

“I used to play quarterback back in the day,” Jackson said. “No I’m kidding. I saw him open and just threw it. Landen makes that pass all the time. I just threw it and didn’t really think about making a mistake. I think that’s the biggest thing we’ve got to go out and do, just play with a free mind.”

Jackson’s been shooting with a freer mind and hit a nice free-throw line jumper off the dribble to stop a Tech run in the second half. He also made 2-of-4 3-point shots and has made 15-of-28 in the past seven games.

If you thought Jackson had that kind of a 3-point shooting run in him, raise your hand. Now stare into a mirror at the face of a pathological liar.

Jackson’s no longer a teenager, but is still a freshman, so he’ll make mistakes here and there.

But he’s also really smart, so if and when he

a break because (Tech coach) Chris (Beard) called one right after that and we changed it and said, ‘Heck with it, just give the ball to Josh and get out of his way.’”

The first play, which involved a down screen and a hand-off, also was called for Jackson, but Self said he thought it would’ve taken too long to develop and would’ve put Kansas in jeopardy of blowing through the final 5.4 seconds without a good shot. So in the redesign, Self called for a screen to free him and the inbounds pass from sophomore Lagerald Vick to go directly to Jackson.

The play worked to perfection and Jackson was eager to credit Lucas after the game.

“I think the play that made the game was the screen that Landen set to get me open,” said Jackson of a ferocious pick that leveled Tech’s Justin Gray and forced Zach Smith to defend Jackson with a running start. “It was an amazing screen and that’s what won the game for us.”

After the game, Beard said he thought the screen that led to Jackson’s game-winning free throw could have set up a much different finish.

“I didn’t get a great look at it,” Beard said of the decisive play. “I don’t

stumbles on the court and elsewhere, chances are good he’ll learn from it, check his emotions the next time and let his brain take over.

After his best performance as a college basketball player, Jackson sounded sure he has room to grow during his Kansas career.

“Every now and then everybody’s going to have a bad game or not play as well as they normally do, but I think there are definitely a lot of places where I can improve in my game,” Jackson said. “Free throws is definitely one of them, ball-handling. I think if I get that under control and start doing better in those areas, I’ll start to progress a little more.”

Kansas needed him to be the best player in the game Saturday and he delivered, which was just good enough to escape Lubbock with a 22-3 record and solo hold on first place in the Big 12.

Jackson called for it.

“I asked him at the timeout, ‘You want it?’

He said, ‘Yeah, I want it; that’s a dumb question,’” Self recalled of the lategame conversation with Jackson. “And then he did a good job driving it downhill ... He played great. Offensively, we were gonna put the ball in Josh’s hands regardless ...

Josh kind of became our Frank down the stretch.”

NOTEBOOK

Ailing Mason ‘wasn’t himself’

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

Lubbock, Texas — Battling an illness throughout the week but still able to practice, Kansas senior Frank Mason III gutted out a season-low 26 minutes to help No. 3 Kansas hold off a serious threat

by Texas Tech, 80-79, on Saturday at United Supermarkets Arena.

Mason, who entered the day as the Big 12’s leading scorer at 20.4 points per game finished an uncharacteristic 4-of13 from the floor for 12 points, five rebounds, one steal, two turnovers and no assists. Eleven of those 12 points came in the second half, including a monster 3-pointer with 7:28 to play.

“Frank wasn’t himself tonight and he was laboring,” KU coach Bill Self said after the game. “He practiced the last couple days but he’s dragging.

He’s dragging. We got about as much out of him as I thought we could today ... He still made a couple of big plays.”

Despite the rougherthan-usual day, Mason’s teammates said they appreciated their point guard’s willingness to lay it on the line for the team.

“It was big time,” senior forward Landen Lucas said. “He’s our leader and he knows that, so to come out here and play a little sick, with foul trouble too, that’s a couple things going against him.

He stepped up and made sure we came out of here with the win.”

Added junior Devonté Graham, who slid into Mason’s spot whenever

KANSAS GUARD FRANK MASON III PUMPS HIS FIRST AFTER DRILLING a 3-pointer against Texas Tech on Saturday in Lubbock, Texas. he was on the bench: “He’s the leader of our team and we go when he goes, and once he fouls out, I just have to step up in his role and take over that leadership and try to help close the game.”

Graham, with a huge assist from Josh Jackson and his 31 points, got that done, but Self said KU may have been fortunate to get the outcome it got given the production discrepancy between the starting guards.

“Whenever our guards are going against guards and they (Tech’s Keenan Evans and Niem Stevenson) get 47 and our guys

combine for 20 or whatever, that’s not a good day,” Self said. “I think Devonté and Frank and everybody on our team would tell you that Stevenson and, obviously, Evans, were better than us today. But our guys did find a way to get it done.”

Lucas solid Though he was disappointed with what he saw on the stat sheet in the first column he checks after every game — rebounds — Lucas more than made up for his fiverebound performance with a solid offensive game.

Lucas finished 5-of7 from the floor for 13 points and enjoyed moments where he took over the game, particularly in the first half when KU continually fed him the ball in the post.

“It ended up being part of the plan, after early on we saw we had an advantage,” Lucas said. “In the second half we did it a couple times, but, really it was just get Josh the ball.”

After the game, Self explained the situation that inspired the Jayhawks to take advantage of Lucas’ 6-foot-10, 250-pound presence in the post.

“They played (6-8 forward Zach) Smith on Josh coming out,” Self said. “So that put Landen on their 6-6 guy and he played good. Gotta make free throws, though.”

Lucas, a career .643 shooter at the line, finished just 3-of-6 from the free-throw line, including a big miss of a one-andone situation in the final minute of a tied game.

Sneak peek at March Shortly before KU’s one-point win at Texas Tech on Saturday, the NCAA Tournament selection committee, for the first time ever, released

an early look at the Top 16 seeds for the upcoming tournament.

Following the lead of college football, which tracks the standings for entry into the College Football Playoff during the final several weeks of the season, the NCAA elected to do the same to try to generate even more buzz for what is widely regarded as one of the greatest sporting events in the world.

According to the committee, Kansas entered the day as the No. 2 overall seed and earned a No. 1 seed in the Midwest region, which would finish in Kansas City, Mo. Defending champ Villanova was the No. 1 overall seed and the Wildcats joined Kansas, Baylor and Gonzaga as the four No. 1 seeds.

A lot can still change, of course, between now and Selection Sunday, which is slated for March 12.

This and that...

Kansas now leads the all-time series with Texas Tech, 33-4, including 16 consecutive victories and a 13-4 record in games played in Lubbock ...

Firebirds stretch win streak to six

By Evan Riggs eriggs@ljworld.com

Overland Park — Less than 24 hours removed from its previous game, and with senior Cameron Clark rushing to Blue Valley Northwest to make it on time for Saturday’s game after taking his ACT exam, it seemed to be the perfect formula for a slow start.

But the Free State boys basketball team never trailed, and even opened a 15-point lead in the first half in its 68-57 victory over Raytown at the Best of Midwest Showcase.

The Firebirds have won six games in a row, which is their longest winning streak of the season.

“The key was our focus this morning,” head coach Sam Stroh said.

“We had a good scouting report and a good walkthrough.”

Junior Garrett Luinstra scored a team-high 16 points, and 15 of those came in the first half as the Firebirds built a lead.

The Firebirds (12-4) opened the game with a

12-4 spurt, and maintained that lead, 19-12, going into the second quarter. With Luinstra knocking down shots, and Clark and junior Jalan Robinson using their size to defend the basket, they extended the lead to 31-16.

Clark, who scored 14 points, briefly exited the game after falling awkwardly while going for a tip-in.

Raytown (16-4) closed the first half on a 9-0 run, and even closed the gap to one, 37-36, midway through the third quarter.

In that stretch, Free State struggled to take care of the ball against Raytown’s pressure defense.

The Firebirds finished the game with 17 turnovers, but had eight turnovers in an eight-minute stretch.

Stroh called a timeout, and his team responded with a 9-0 run.

“This is an aggressive team, so we had to match their aggressiveness going to the rim and look to score,” Stroh said. “I liked the way we finished the game.”

Overland Park — With less than a second remaining in overtime, Lawrence High sophomore Trey Quartlebaum stood frozen with hands on his head, looking at a referee in disbelief.

Quartlebaum was whistled for a foul going for a rebound with 0.7 seconds remaining, and Liberty (Mo.) junior Robert Rawie nailed both free throws on the other end, which sealed the LHS boys basketball team’s 68-66 overtime loss at Blue Valley Northwest in the Best of Midwest Showcase.

“I didn’t feel like it was a foul because he was going for a rebound just like the other person,” sophomore Clarence King said.

“It is what it is. (We) can’t get mad, we just have to keep playing.”

The Lions had one last chance. But King’s halfcourt heave grazed the bottom of the net, and the Lions came up short despite King’s 20 points Saturday.

“I had faith in it,” King said. “I knew I had to just throw it up. Once I saw it in the air I thought it was going in.”

Lawrence coach Mike Lewis was proud of the fight his team showed, but he said it shouldn’t have extended to overtime. The Lions (11-5) led for all but three minutes of the game.

After a back-and-forth first quarter, Liberty junior Jalen Lewis scored five of his game-high 38 points to spark a 7-0 run and give the Blue Jays a 26-20 lead.

“I’m not sure we could guard (Lewis) any better,” Mike Lewis said. “He really shot the ball well.”

The Lions opted to switch senior Jackson Mallory onto Jalen Lewis, and it sparked a 10-0 LHS run to give the Lions a 3026 lead. Then senior Austin Miller nailed two consecutive 3-pointers for a seven-point advantage.

They entered the fourth quarter with a 5043 lead. With King doing a little of everything from scoring, passing, getting steals and blocking shots,

it looked like the Lions would close the deal.

Liberty (15-6) cut the score to 56-54 with three minutes left in regulation, and it was nip-and-tuck the rest of the way. After trading free throws, the Lions led, 59-58, with 36 seconds remaining and had the ball.

Lawrence broke the press, and King was streaking wide open for a layup. But senior Kobe Buffalomeat threw a bounce pass just out King’s reach. The Blue Jays took advantage and scored a layup in transition for a one-point lead.

FSHS coach Mike Gillman said. “For him to win the Sunflower League title is a pretty good summation of his career. Nick was great.”

Six other Free State wrestlers finished in the top-three in their respective weight classes, including a pair of runnerups — Bennett King (120) and Isaiah Jacobs (126).

Meanwhile, Lou Fincher (106), Joey Eddis (160), Gage Foster (170) and Elijah Denmark (182) all notched a bronze medal to help provide a bulk of the scoring.

Senior Tucker Wilson, who is now 30-1 on the year, cruised through the 182-pound weight class to clinch his first career league title. Wilson had finished third in each of his last two trips through this tournament, including an overtime loss in the semifinals last year.

“It feels good, I haven’t won this tournament before because I have messed up the last couple years,” Wilson said.

Of his four matches, only once did Wilson even get to a second period. After an opening round that last just 1:37, Wilson was tested the most in the second round against Zayvion Ray, of SM West.

Wilson left little doubt, however, in the title match. He pinned SM South’s Caleb Cossairt in 1:52, his second-shortest match of the afternoon to earn the title.

in the drive-thru line. According to the menu, the Wings and Things meal is billed as being among the restaurant’s most popular, so we took the suggestion. It came with five Buffalo wings, which we ordered with the “Nuclear” level hotness; three chicken fingers, one for each of us; crinkle fries and Texas toast.

The general consensus was that the chicken was tender with a crispy exterior. I’m a believer that in order for hot wings to be classified as really hot, they need to be served with a small side of regret. My only regret is that I didn’t go hot enough even though they were very flavorful.

The only complaint came from Lawhorn, who was disappointed part of the basket space was taken up by ... celery.

A more unusual offering in the Lawrence chicken chain scene is chicken and waffles.

All three of us agreed on ordering some, along with the Chicks Plate, which came with three more chicken strips, Texas toast and fries.

Cayenne Ranch, Mango Habanero and Spicy Barbecue were among the sauces we chose, and there was general agreement that the Mango Habanero was one of the more distinctive sauce offerings of the day.

“I think one thing I’m learning is that I’m overcooking my chicken at home, because this is juicier,” Keegan said.

“I think I’m overcooking my waffles, too. That waffle is airy, yet flavorful.”

This place is the perennial powerhouse of chicken sandwiches. Although you have the option of ordering several salads or breakfast sandwiches not involving chicken, we aimed straight for the heart and ordered the Chick-fil-A sandwich, a generous chicken breast on a bed of vegetables called pickles.

(Lawhorn made an exception to his no-vegetable rule here.)

We cut the sandwich into thirds. And if you’re wondering, it was a little weird for three grown men to share a single sandwich, but we didn’t want to be wasteful. And the road ahead was still long. I’m still not sure, though, that the people in the booth next to us understood.

It sounds cheesy, I know, but that’s because it is. When it comes to mystery books, sometimes you just have to embrace the camp and the cliche moments and enjoy the ride.

hen I was a little girl, I lived in a very small town with a very small library, but I had a very big appetite for reading books. I devoured everything at my public library, and my mother made the excellent parenting decision to allow me to purchase one book per week. I resented her for making me make such a difficult decision (only one?!), but I took it on as a challenge to find the best book, and for the first time, I was completely overwhelmed by choices.

I still remember picking out my book, proudly holding it in my lap the entire way home and reading it as fast as I could. I never paced myself on reading, so I was always left wanting more, each and every time, anxious to get a new book as soon as possible.

I get a similar feeling whenever I walk through the mystery section now, nearly 20 years later, as an adult. There is so much to discover and quite a lot I really don’t like. At the tail end of 2016, I decided it was time read a few mysteries, and I haven’t looked back since.
