KANSAS BUDGET

Panels propose tax hikes, school aid cuts

SECRETARY OF STATE KRIS KOBACH IS SEEKING AUTHORITY TO HOLD BIFURCATED ELECTIONS so that people who register to vote without showing proof of U.S. citizenship would only be allowed to vote in federal races.

Kobach seeks power to split elections Claims 18,000 noncitizens could be on Kansas voter rolls

By Peter Hancock phancock@ljworld.com

Topeka — Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach urged a Senate committee Tuesday to pass a bill that would authorize his office to block an estimated 18,000 registered voters from casting ballots in state and local elections if they registered under a federal system that does not require people to show proof of U.S. citizenship.

“The first reason we have this bill is to preserve the integrity of our proof of citizenship requirement,” Kobach said.

Last year, a federal judge in Kansas City, Kan., granted a temporary injunction blocking Kobach’s office from enforcing that requirement on voters who had registered using a federal system that does not require

proof of citizenship.

That ruling, however, applied only to a person’s right to vote in races for president or Congress. Kobach then attempted to enact regulations that would have required those people to cast provisional ballots so only their votes in federal races would be counted while votes in any other races or ballot issues would be thrown out.

But a judge in Shawnee County overturned that regulation, saying Kobach had no legal authority to maintain two separate voter rolls or to

conduct what he called a bifurcated election.

The bill being considered in the Senate Ethics, Elections and Local Government Committee would give him that authority, at least until the federal courts make final rulings on cases challenging the law.

During the 2016 elections, Kobach’s office said there were more than 17,000 people who fell into the category of people who’d registered without showing proof of citizenship. During his testimony Tuesday, Kobach argued that there

could be as many as 18,000 non-U.S. citizens currently on the Kansas voter registration rolls.

However, that number, which Kobach said he submitted as evidence in one of the federal court cases challenging the proof of citizenship law, was based on the same widely debunked study by researchers at Old Dominion University that President Donald Trump has used to assert that millions of noncitizens voted illegally in the 2016 election.

The study used largesample survey data from the 2008 and 2010 elections that suggested roughly 15 percent of the adult nonU.S. citizen population in the country was registered to vote, and that as many as 6 percent actually had cast ballots.

That study was harshly criticized by other researchers who questioned the methodology and noted that many of the people in the original study who were identified as noncitizens probably were misclassified.

That’s because in any survey, a very small percentage of people will accidentally check the wrong box or give an incorrect answer. But in a large-sample survey, those errors can produce a seemingly large number of people who claim to have a particular characteristic — like being a noncitizen who voted — when, in fact, they don’t.

Only four other people testified in favor of the bill, all of them county election commissioners whom Kobach himself either appointed or reappointed to their positions.

In Kansas, the four largest counties — Johnson, Sedgwick, Shawnee and Wyandotte — have appointed election commissioners while in the other 101 counties, the county clerk is the chief election officer.

Tabitha Lehman said her office has verified that 12 noncitizens have voted since 2004. She said one way officials know that is by attending naturalization ceremonies held in Wichita and signing people up to vote as soon as they become citizens, only to find out they are already registered and have cast ballots in previous elections.

She also said another case of a noncitizen voting in Sedgwick County had been confirmed as recently as last week.

Although Kobach now has authority to prosecute election crimes, he has only filed charges in a handful of cases, none of them involving noncitizens who voted illegally.

When asked by reporters why he hadn’t filed any, he said that in most cases, officials only learn that a noncitizen has voted long after the statute of limitations has expired.

When reminded of Lehman’s statement that one had been confirmed only last week, he said: “That one is one we may be looking at to prosecute because that person actually did vote, I believe in the 2014 election, but in most of these instances we don’t discover the crime that the noncitizen committed until 10 years after the crime is committed.”

L awrence J ournal -W orld But Rabbi Moti Rieber, of the group Kansas Interfaith Action, said the small number of noncitizens who may be voting does not justify the thousands of otherwise eligible voters being barred from voting because of the citizenship law.

“Eighteen thousand Kansans will lose their right to vote if this bill passes,” Rieber said.

Doug Bonney, an attorney for the American Civil Liberties Union of Kansas who is involved in the lawsuits still pending in federal court, said passage of the bill would only result in more litigation.

“This law would be challenged, if it were to pass, on constitutional grounds under the Kansas State Constitution as violating principles of equal protection and due process,” he said.

U.S. District Judge Julie Robinson has scheduled a hearing for March 3 to hear oral arguments in the case challenging the proof of citizenship law. That case will decide whether the temporary injunction she issued last year will be lifted or made permanent.

(Gov. Sam Brownback) can say whatever he wants. I don’t have to agree with it.”

— Sen. Dan Kerschen, R-Garden Plain

Republicans more power.

“We’re underwater, and I can’t backdate a tax plan,” said Senate President Susan Wagle, a conservative Wichita Republican who has publicly broken with Brownback.

The governor said he’s willing to look at the education spending cuts, though he proposed internal borrowing, scaling back contributions to public employee pensions and other accounting moves to avoid such reductions. Lawmakers can’t raise taxes quickly enough to generate new revenues before July.

The governor criticized the proposals to increase income taxes, which would hit all taxpayers, even the poorest ones. Brownback blames the state’s budget woes on sluggishness in agriculture and energy production. He contends Kansas is a model for “pro-growth” policies and has repeatedly noted that President Donald Trump promised to cut federal income taxes.

“This is going against national trends. It’s going against what’s in the best interest of Kansas to grow,” Brownback said.

The Republican-controlled Legislature already has enacted tax increases to fill budget holes since passing the first personal income tax cuts in 2012, including by boosting sales and cigarette taxes in 2015. Yet Republicans have preserved core Brownback policies: moving from three to two income tax brackets, decreasing rates and giving an exemption to more than 330,000 farmers and business owners.

Brownback has proposed increasing cigarette and liquor taxes, and increasing for-profit companies’ annual filing fees. He also would tax farmers’ and business owners’ royalties and rents.

But he has less sway over the Legislature than in the past.

“He can say whatever he wants. I don’t have to agree with it,” said Sen. Dan Kerschen, a Garden Plain Republican.

Still, the proposal to cut aid to public schools drew immediate bipartisan criticism.

Four school districts sued the state over education funding in 2010, and multiple Kansas Supreme Court rulings have forced legislators to increase aid to poor districts. The high court is expect to rule soon on whether the state’s total spending of about $4.1 billion a year, or $8,900 per student, fulfills lawmakers’ duty under the state constitution to finance a suitable education for every child.

While lawmakers and educators acknowledge that many of the state’s 286 school districts could tap cash reserves to tide themselves over once, districts could face staff cuts if the aid is not restored. John Robb, an attorney for the four school districts, said cutting education funding is “tremendously illadvised.”

“That’s moving the ball the wrong way down the field,” Robb said. “It doesn’t make much sense to me.”

as a fundraising event and an opportunity for potential candidates to make announcements and start lining up support for the 2018 elections.

The two major fundraising events are an auction on Friday night and a banquet on Saturday that typically features a high-profile keynote speaker, often someone with presidential ambitions. In 2015, the keynote speaker was former Maryland Gov. Martin O’Malley, who also ran for the presidential nomination in

2016 but bowed out of the race after the Iowa caucuses. In 2008, the keynote speaker was Virginia Sen. Tim Kaine, who became Clinton’s vice presidential running mate in 2016.

This year, though, party officials said they will not hold a banquet and instead will host Sanders’ speech as the main event, in a venue that is still to be determined.

House panel to hear gun debate KU faculty denounce current law

By Peter Hancock phancock@ljworld.com

Topeka — A Kansas House committee is expected to vote as early as today on one of two bills that would roll back part of the state’s requirements to allow people to carry concealed weapons in most public buildings.

Rep. John Barker, RAbilene, who chairs the House Federal and State Affairs Committee, said last week that he intended to work on one of the bills t o d a y , Barker but as of Tuesday afternoon he had not publicly announced which bill that would be.

The requirements, which are scheduled to take effect July 1, apply to college and university campuses as well as most municipal and county-owned buildings, including public hospitals and community mental health centers, unless they provide adequate security to prevent anyone from bringing weapons into the building.

Those were part of a broader concealed-carry bill that lawmakers passed in 2013, but campuses and local governments were allowed to exempt themselves for four years.

One of the bills would extend those exemp-

tions indefinitely, while another would apply only to the University of Kansas hospital complex in Kansas City, Kan. Some members of the committee have said the KU hospital bill stands the best chance of passing out of the committee, but if that is the bill the committee works today, there would likely be amendments to extend the exemption to all other public hospitals and health care facilities.

Also today, the committee is scheduled to hear testimony on another gun-related bill dealing with slot machines at parimutuel race tracks. How much time the committee spends debating the gun bill could depend on how much time is consumed by testimony on the race track bill.

Meanwhile, a group of KU faculty members issued a statement Tuesday in which they “decry in the strongest terms possible” the current law that will soon require campuses to permit concealed guns.

“We believe that granting permission for guns on campus undermines the very essence of what makes a university great,” read the statement from Faculty for a Safer Campus. “A law granting ‘conceal and carry’ on campus is a deep and profound impediment to our achieving the greatness to which we aspire.”

David Roediger, a history professor at

‘‘

We believe that granting permission for guns on campus undermines the very essence of what makes a university great. A law granting ‘conceal and carry’ on campus is a deep and profound impediment to our achieving the greatness to which we aspire.”

— Faculty for a Safer Campus statement

KU, said the group includes about 50 KU faculty members. He also said the wording of the statement was similar to that of a resolution adopted in December by the University Senate, an elected body made up of faculty, staff and students, as well as statements issued by whole departments on campus.

During testimony on the bill last week, officials from several campuses warned that if the law is allowed to take effect, some faculty members will leave Kansas, and the state may have a more difficult time recruiting students from other states.

But supporters of the current law insisted that the Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution guarantees individuals a right to self defense, and that people should not have to give up that right whenever they walk onto a campus or into a public building.

Ex-mayor Farmer still awaits sentencing for felony conviction

By Conrad Swanson cswanson@ljworld.com

More than four months have passed since Lawrence’s former mayor, Jeremy Farmer, was convicted of transporting stolen money across state lines, and he is still awaiting sentencing.

On Sept. 28 Farmer pleaded guilty in a federal courtroom in Topeka to one felony count of transportation of stolen f u n d s .

The case arose in August Farmer 2015 after it was revealed that Farmer had not paid more than $50,000 in federal and state payroll taxes on behalf of Just Food, where he worked

as the nonprofit’s executive director.

U.S. District Judge Carlos Murguia accepted Farmer’s guilty plea in September and ordered the completion of a pre-sentence investigation, which will be used to determine his sentence.

In January the Journal-World reached out to the office of U.S. District Attorney Tom Beall in the District of Kansas and spokesman Jim Cross confirmed that a sentencing date had not yet been set for Farmer.

The case’s online docket will be updated when Farmer’s presentence investigation is complete and a date is set for a sentencing hearing, Cross said.

As of Tuesday, the docket in Farmer’s case has not been updated.

Depending on Farm-

er’s criminal history, which is a part of the pre-sentence investigation, he could face up to 10 years in prison and a fine of up to $250,000.

Farmer is not currently in the state’s custody.

Murguia allowed him to remain free on a $5,000 bond.

Farmer was hired at Just Food — whose mission is to feed the hungry in Douglas County — in 2011. He resigned that position and his seat on the Lawrence City Commission after he was accused of stealing money from the nonprofit.

Originally Farmer said Just Food’s taxes went unpaid due to an oversight.

Skydiving CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A

“My big deal is, I just want to know what the rules are, and if we’re being told that absolutely we have to do this,” City Commissioner Mike Amyx said.

City Attorney Toni Wheeler told the commission that the city has not directly asked the FAA what Amyx would happen if the city decides to disallow the activity, but that people could potentially petition the FAA as a result. At issue would be federal grant money from the FAA, which provides 90 percent of the funding for improvements at the airport.

Several people expressed concerns about allowing skydiving at the airport and how it could negatively impact the other operations that use the facility, particularly the air ambulance service LifeStar.

Greg Hildenbrand, executive director of LifeStar of Kansas, told commissioners that the company has previously operated alongside skydiving drop zones, and that safety is not the only factor. Instead, he was concerned about the possibility of delays, which he said could be up to 15 minutes should a skydiver miss the drop zone. For that reason, Hildenbrand said skydiving and EMS

are “incompatible uses” of the same airspace.

“Time is very critical in determining whether that person is going to survive,” Hildenbrand said. “…Time is critical, and we count that time in minutes.”

Concerns were also voiced about the effect on other operations at the airport.

Lloyd Hetrick, a pilot who operates out of the Lawrence airport, said he has talked to some pilots who said they would make other arrangements if the airport were to allow skydiving.

“I do think there’s a lot of loss,” Hetrick said.

“The operation at the airport will be affected.”

But not all those who spoke expressed reservations.

Skydiving operator and Lawrence resident William McCauley criticized the city for what he said was an unfriendly attitude toward skydiving.

Mc- Markus Cauley, who has previously submitted a proposal to operate a skydiving business at the airport, said the procedures were already in place to ensure safety of the existing operations and skydiving. He also said that concerns about LifeStar delays were overblown.

“There is plenty of opportunity for us to coexist,” McCauley said.

The FAA looked at eight proposed parachute

landing areas and determined that three were safe as long as 13 provisions were met. The FAA also determined it would be safe for skydiving to operate alongside LifeStar by placing approximately four-tenths of a mile between the parachute landing area and the helicopter operation.

The memo regarding the assessment that was provided to the city did not specifically address the concern of delays.

Since 1929, the city has owned and operated the airport, which is located on U.S. Highway 24 and covers nearly 500 acres. The airport averages more than 100 daily flight operations of single-engine, twin-engine and business jets, according to the city’s website.

City Manager Tom Markus told the commissioners that before they could decide, they needed to know how much authority they had on the issue.

“I’m not taking a plusminus position on this issue, I’m saying you should be clear about what the FAA is telling you and whether you have any discretion in the end,” Markus said.

Commissioners took Markus’ recommendation and referred the topic to legal staff for a specific opinion on whether the commission has discretion in allowing skydiving. The commission also instructed the city’s Aviation Advisory Board to begin making an operational plan for allowing skydiving at the airport.

The legal and AAB reviews are expected to come back before the commission in 90 days.

In other business, the commission: l Voted to take ownership and initiate the restoration of the Santa Fe train depot in East Lawrence. The $1.5 million restoration of the mid-century depot will be funded largely by a $1.2 million federal transportation grant. The restoration will begin in late summer or early fall

and should be completed sometime in 2018. l Voted to extend an agreement for Greyhound bus service to use the city’s right-of-way at East Sixth and New Hampshire streets as a bus stop. Greyhound has been using the right-ofway free of charge for the last 14 months while the company attempted to pursue other arrangements. The commission extended Greyhound’s deadline to March 14 and directed staff to continue negotiations with Greyhound regarding a proposal to use a location near the Lawrence Public Library as its stop. l Authorized $11.3 million in energy-efficient improvements to lighting, heating and cooling systems, and other city equipment.

Lawrencebased 360 Energy Engineers will be the general

contractor for the project. 360 Energy Engineers completed an energy audit of the city’s facilities, and a performance contract guarantees that the energy savings will cover the costs of the bonds that will be issued to fund the improvements. l Voted to authorize the demolition of a vacated home at 1305 New Jersey St. — City Hall reporter Rochelle Valverde can be reached at 832-6314.

Reject Kobach’s terrible ideas Secretary of state’s recent push for legislation dealing with immigration is nothing but a political distraction.

S

ecretary of State Kris Kobach is again pushing bad immigration legislation.

Given Kobach’s penchant for political theatrics, there’s no surprise that he is behind a couple of bills that score political points but don’t help Kansans. What will be surprising is if legislators let either bill see the light of day.

First, Kobach wants to authorize the Kansas Highway Patrol to enforce federal immigration law. Second, he wants to ban Kansas cities and counties from adopting sanctuary policies. State Rep. John Whitmer, R-Wichita, is sponsoring the bills in the House while Caryn Tyson, R-Parker, is sponsoring the bills in the Senate.

Both bills are unnecessary.

HB 2274 authorizes the superintendent of the Kansas Highway Patrol to negotiate a memorandum of understanding between Kansas and the Department of Homeland Security on enforcement of federal immigration laws. Such legislation might make anti-immigration advocates excited but it would accomplish little and might actually put people in harm’s way.

In the course of investigating crimes and making traffic stops, Kansas Highway Patrol officers arrest individuals who turn out to be in the country illegally. Those immigrants can be detained and turned over to federal authorities. It’s a system that works well.

There certainly is no indication that illegal immigration has become such an overwhelming problem that the Department of Homeland Security needs the Kansas Highway Patrol’s help. Besides, how much is it going to cost to train Highway Patrol officers to handle this new duty? And did Kobach consider whether the highway patrol, already stretched thin by years of budget cuts, can afford to take on this assignment?

Similarly, the sanctuary bill, HB 2275, is politically driven with little evidence that it is needed. Communities designated as sanctuaries generally place limits on cooperation with federal authorities when it comes to reporting or detaining illegal immigrants. There is no evidence that such designations have had any impact on immigration in Kansas. Certainly, threatening those communities with loss of all state funds is both mean-spirited and unwarranted.

As they work through complex discussions on Kansas tax policies, the state’s legislators can ill afford political distractions like the one Kobach and his minions have offered. Both HB 2274 and HB 2275 should be rejected.

From the Kansas Daily Tribune for Feb. 8, 1867: l “It will not be forgotten years that upon the occasion of our ago visit to Eudora, ten days ago, IN 1867 we spoke in terms of high praise of the intelligence and high character of the people, and expressed our faith that upon the subject of the railway subscription, they would be found to vote right. How our faith was justified, appears in the election returns from that intelligent community. No more estimable citizens are to be found anywhere in our county, which is saying much.”

What do we tell our children?

I recently led a discussion with about 100 women of the Sisterhood at B’nai Jeshurun Congregation on the east side of Cleveland.

I am still thinking about the question from a woman whose 10-year-old nephew wanted to know whether his friends could be deported.

He is Jewish, and one of his friends is black. He apparently worries that too many will see him as “the other” — which is true only if one thinks an American must not only be born here but also be white and socalled Christian. I qualify that claim to Christianity because I am bone-weary of people who profess to share my faith but wield God and their Bibles as weapons of mass destruction. Their intolerance bears no resemblance to the God I know.

This is not the first time I’ve been asked in recent weeks by a stranger what we should tell our children in the wake of Donald Trump’s election.

My habit, when I meet someone for the first time, is to shake hands and say, “Tell me about yourself.” In the past, people usually told me what they do. In recent weeks, they are more likely to tell me how they feel.

They are worried. They are scared. Women, in particu-

Connie Schultz

“

We must assure the children of our country that there’s no such thing as one kind of American — and we have the photos to prove it.” lar, voice concern about the children in their lives, for the most obvious of reasons.

Trump has been behaving, in word and deed, in ways that most of us raise our children to understand are unacceptable.

We do not lie.

We do not bully.

We do not hate.

When I wrote about this concern during the presidential campaign, some readers insisted that if we’re worried about the tender souls of our children and grandchildren, the solution is obvious: Don’t let them watch TV.

It’s not that easy to protect children from the world around us. The grown-ups talk. Tabloids fill stands at checkout counters. Televisions blast cable news in waiting rooms and airports across the country.

I wrote a few months ago about walking through the Miami airport with my 8-year-old grandson. I lost sight of him just long enough — seconds, not minutes — for him to stop in front of a television screen broadcasting a series of Trump’s most egregious moments, including his racist comments about Mexicans.

My grandson lives in a U.S. territory. His life is full of children who do not look like him but are his closest friends. He stared at the screen, his eyes narrowing as he watched. I coaxed him away, but we spent the next hour surrounded by people who did not look like us as we waited for his flight and talked through his questions.

Why, he wanted to know, would that man run for president? Why would he say such awful things about people he doesn’t even know?

At one point, I told him, “This is why it’s so important that this man not become our president.”

Oh well.

I answered that woman’s question about deportation as best I could. We must assure the children of our country that there’s no such thing as one kind of American — and we have the photos to prove it. Show them pictures of the millions of women and the men who love them who marched in Washington and in cities around the country the day after the inauguration. Show them images of the diverse group of Americans protesting at airports across the U.S. last weekend in support of immigrants and refugees.

Even as I spoke, I could see the woman’s kind face clouding. I needed no explanation for her response.

Her expression said it all: How can this be? How can this, all of it — the lies, the bullying, the targeting of innocent people — be happening in the United States of America?

How do we explain this to our children?

Well, we tell them what we’ve always told them.

We do not lie.

We do not bully.

We do not hate.

Because we are Americans, and this is our country to save.

TODAY IN HISTORY On Feb. 8, 1942, during World War II, Japanese forces began invading Singapore, which fell a week later. l In 1587, Mary, Queen of Scots was beheaded at Fotheringhay Castle in England after she was implicated in a plot to murder her cousin, Queen Elizabeth I. l In 1910, the Boy Scouts of America was incorporated. l In 1915, D.W. Griffith’s groundbreaking as well as controversial silent movie epic about the Civil War, “The Birth of a Nation,” premiered in Los Angeles under its original title, “The Clansman.” l In 1922, President Warren G. Harding had a radio installed in the White House.

At church, be careful what you wish for At the National Prayer Breakfast last week, President Trump promised to “totally destroy” the socalled “Johnson Amendment,” a law that prohibits churches from endorsing or opposing political candidates at the risk of losing their tax-exempt status.

Politifact.com gives the background on how the amendment became law: “The restriction was championed by (Lyndon Johnson) in 1954 when Johnson was a U.S. senator running for re-election. A conservative nonprofit group that wanted to limit the treatymaking ability of the president produced material that called for electing his primary opponent, millionaire rancher-oilman Dudley Dougherty, and defeating Johnson. There was no church involved.

“Johnson, then Democratic minority leader, responded by introducing an amendment to Section 501(c)(3) of the federal tax code dealing with taxexempt charitable organizations, including groups organized and operated exclusively for religious, charitable, scientific, literacy and educational purposes, or to prevent cruelty to children or animals. It said, in effect, that if you want to be absolved from paying taxes, you couldn’t be involved in partisan politics.”

Conservatives have ar-

Cal Thomas tcaeditors@tribune.com

gued that the Johnson Amendment limits the free speech of pastors and ignores the history of the nation. They also claim the law is applied unevenly, especially when it comes to African-American churches, which have a long history of inviting mostly Democratic political candidates to speak in their churches and on occasion endorsing them without having their tax-exempt status challenged by the IRS. Opponents of the amendment have a point, but there is a larger one. From the founding of the nation, through the Civil War when fiery pro- and anti-slavery sermons were heard from pulpits, to Prohibition, to contemporary examples, the ordained have played active roles in the nation’s political and social life. Pastors should be as free as anyone to speak their minds on political issues, but should they do so from the pulpit?

By focusing more on the temporal than the eternal there is the risk of diluting the power in their primary message.

There are legitimate concerns that government is not sufficiently protecting people whose consciences forbid them from participating in activities they consider immoral. Recent examples include lawsuits against Christian bakers and photographers who have refused service to people whose lifestyles offend their beliefs. The Obama administration ordered The Little Sisters of the Poor to provide contraceptives to staff members as part of their health insurance in contravention of Catholic teaching.

The subtle temptation for evangelicals to engage in partisan politics dilutes their primary message. If I go to a political rally, I expect to hear political speeches.

When I go to church, I am expecting soul food.

Many political views are represented in my church.

If the pastor began preaching on politics he would find people, including me, headed for the exits. There is also the presumption that people are uninformed, needing a pastor to tell them what to think. This is as silly as the notion that conservatives listen to Rush Limbaugh in order to know what to believe.

Yes, Congress should repeal the law prohibiting preachers from talking about politics from the pulpit while passing a new law protecting the consciences

of believers. The larger question is: should preachers preach on politics and to what end?

Muslims would have to be included. How comfortable would those conservatives now campaigning for repeal of the Johnson law be if some imams began preaching death to America and endorsing Muslim candidates for political office?

Would the repeal lead to activist mosques supporting terrorist groups? It’s already happened in the Holy Land Foundation case where the government alleged money passed through the charity to support Hamas, a designated foreign terrorist organization.

Whether the Johnson law is repealed, or not, evangelicals have a more powerful message than partisan politics. Senate Chaplain Barry Black referenced that power by quoting from an old hymn at last Thursday’s prayer breakfast: “My hope is built on nothing less than Jesus’ blood and righteousness. I dare not trust the sweetest frame, but wholly loan on Jesus’ name. On Christ the solid rock I stand, all other ground is sinking sand.” He said that includes government institutions.

Isn’t that a better message for conservative Christians to preach than the sinking sand of partisan politics?

A 26-year-old man was taken to a Kansas Cityarea hospital by helicopter ambulance after being shot at a Baldwin City duplex Tuesday evening, Baldwin City police said.

Baldwin City Police Chief Greg Neis said the shooting occurred at 920

Deer Ridge Court.

Officers were first dispatched to the scene at 8:07 p.m., and the victim was transported by air ambulance to Overland Park Regional Medical Center, according to the Douglas County Emergency Communications Department.

Neis said officers from the Baldwin City Police Department and the

Douglas County Sheriff’s Office were questioning two witnesses. Officers are also looking for more information on a pickup reported to have left the scene shortly after the shooting, he said.

Further information about a possible suspect or the victim’s condition was not immediately available.

County Commission to consider utility relocation agreements ejones@ljworld.com

The Douglas County Commission will be asked today to approve two utility relocation agreements for this year’s planned improvements to West County Road 458.

On the County Commission’s agenda, along with Douglas County Public Works Director Keith Browning’s update on costs for this year’s improvements to CR 458, will be an unrelated conditional use permit for commissioners to consider. With that, the meeting will be scheduled for the 6 p.m. time slot that is reserved for items that might draw public comment.

In a memo to commissioners, Browning wrote that the CR 458 project slated for a 5-mile section of CR 458 from East 800 Road north of Lone Star to near its junction with North 1150 Road will cost an estimated $7.26 million.

That is an increase from the estimated $5.9 million cost when the project was first put on the county’s capital improvement plan in 2011. Federal funding has already been secured to cover $2.47 million of those costs, and another $540,000 in federal money is anticipated.

Last week, Browning told commissioners the project would start in late May and construction would continue through November. At that time, the project probably would wrap up for the season and be completed in spring of 2018, he said.

At today’s meeting, Browning will ask commissioners to authorize payment to Douglas County Rural Water District No. 5 of $202,320 to relocate waterlines to accommodate wider ditches and the realigned curves, and another $142,468 for AT&T to move its copper and fiber optic lines. The project was redesigned to reduce utility relocation costs. Brown-

ing’s memo also provides an estimate of $185,000 to purchase right of way for the project.

The proposed conditional use permit before commissioners would allow for the expanded use of a private airstrip about 2 miles south of Eudora at 1123 East 2000 Road. The airstrip has been in use since the first permit was approved in 1985 for the use of property owners Milton and Joan Bland.

The revised conditional use permit would allow property owners who plan to build homes on a proposed development on a subdivided Bland property to use the airstrip for a plane and powered parachute.

The conditional use permit comes with the LawrenceDouglas County Planning Commission’s recommendation for approval.

The Douglas County Commission meets at 6 p.m. today at the Douglas County Courthouse, 1100 Massachusetts St.

Judges slam travel ban defense Justice Department called out for its ‘abstract’ evidence Alan Gomez and Richard Wolf USA TODAY

Three federal appeals court judges voiced deep skepticism Tuesday about President Trump’s temporary ban on immigration from seven majority-Muslim nations, an indication that they are not inclined to reinstate it.

The U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit panel pounced on the Justice Department lawyer representing the administration for insisting the travel ban was

needed despite existing visa rules and restrictions.

The panel – two judges appointed by Democratic presidents, one by a Republican — expressed some sympathy for the government’s fallback position — that lawful permanent residents from the seven nations could be excluded from the ban. But the judges questioned whether they or administration officials could rewrite Trump’s order on the fly.

Judge Richard Clifton, who was named to the bench by President George W. Bush, voiced the most support for a potential com-

promise. The others — Judges Michelle Friedland, named by President Obama, and William Canby, appointed by President Jimmy Carter — were more harsh in their appraisals of the ban.

The unusual hearing, with a live listening audience and judges spread from Arizona to California to Hawaii, dealt with the most significant test of Trump’s fledgling administration — one that pits the president’s authority to protect the nation against the rights of legal immigrants and refugees.

WASHINGTON

The White House’s list of 78 terrorist incidents it claims have been undercovered by the media was hastily assembled to defend President Trump’s latest broadside on the “dishonest press” and doesn’t show what the administration says it does.

White House press secretary Sean Spicer said Tuesday that the list demonstrated “the reason the president is acting in so many of the ways he has, with executive order and otherwise” — connecting the president’s claims to the legal battle over his order banning people from seven predominately Muslim countries from traveling to the United States.

“And I think what we need to do is to remind people that the Earth is a very dangerous place these days,” he said.

GOP rallies around embattled Labor nominee Puzder

Housekeeper ‘mistake’ could be a new hurdle Michael Collins USA TODAY

WASHINGTON The White House and congressional Republicans are rallying around Labor secretary nominee Andrew Puzder after he admitted employing an undocumented housekeeper for years.

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell told reporters Tuesday that President Trump’s administration strongly supports

Puzder and wants him to remain the nominee.

McConnell said he also continues to back Puzder, whom he called “an outstanding choice.”

“He realized the mistake, he fixed it, and ... is eminently qualified for the job,” McConnell said.

Puzder, who lives in Franklin, Tenn., and is chief executive officer of CKE Restaurants, the parent company of the Hardee’s and Carl’s Jr. fast-food chains, disclosed late Monday that he and his wife had employed an undocumented immigrant as a housekeeper for a number of years.

“When I learned of her status, we immediately ended her em-

ployment and offered her assistance in getting legal status,” Puzder said in a statement. “We have fully paid back taxes to the IRS and the State of California.”

Puzder’s admission could further complicate his confirmation hearing, which already has been delayed four times while he works to divest divests his assets from his fast-food empire.

Similar revelations have sunk nominees over the years, while others have weathered the controversy and won confirmation.

Puzder’s critics, however, suggested his explanation of the events was inadequate.

what we have heard is story after story about how he spent his career squeezing workers for profit, leaving many with lost wages, no financial security and no retirement,” said Sen. Patty Murray of Washington, the top Democrat on the Senate labor committee.

Puzder also has been under fire from labor unions and other groups over his opposition to raising the minimum wage and over questions about low wages and other practices at his restaurants.

He also has criticized a now-halted rule enacted under President Obama that would have expanded eligibility for overtime pay to 4 million Americans.

L awrence J ournal -W orld - USA TODAY WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 8, 2017

High court split could be result v CONTINUED FROM 1B

spokesman for the court said a ruling is expected later this week.

It was convened only days after Trump signed the executive order, which places its most extreme restrictions on refugees and immigrants from Syria. That action was blocked last week by federal district Judge James Robart in Seattle, who would hear detailed arguments from both sides if the appeals court panel upholds his initial decision and sends the case back. And either side could appeal the panel’s ruling to the Supreme Court.

August Flentje, arguing for the government, said the seven countries selected for the travel ban — Iran, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria and Yemen — were identified by the Obama administration as prone to terror, giving Trump the right to ban immigrants temporarily.

“Has the government provided any evidence connecting these countries with terrorism?” Friedland, the presiding judge, asked.

“I understand the concept of that, but it’s pretty abstract,” Clifton chimed in. “It’s not like there haven’t been processes in place for dealing with people from those countries.”

The judges zeroed in on that point, repeatedly asking for instances in which travelers from the seven countries had entered the U.S. and committed acts of terrorism. Flentje said the case was moving very quickly, pleading for more time to bolster the government’s arguments at the district court level.

Washington state Solicitor General Noah Purcell raised the religious component of Trump’s ban, arguing that it violated constitutional protections by barring targeting Muslims, who make up 97% of the seven nations’ populations.

But Clifton said he saw no evidence that the order was written to target Muslims and said the countries represent only about 15% of the world’s Muslims.

“I have trouble understanding why we’re supposed to infer religious animus, when in fact the vast majority of Muslims would not be affected,” he said.

Purcell responded that Trump’s words on the campaign trail, when he called for a temporary ban on Muslims entering the country, were all the proof needed to understand the true reason behind the order.

“There are statements that we’ve quoted in our complaint that are rather shocking evidence of intent to discriminate against Muslims,” he said.

To reverse Robart’s ruling, the circuit court must show that it was decided in error, a difficult standard to meet — or at least that it was, as the government argues, “vastly overbroad.”

ACLU report casts doubt on airport behavior screening TSA’s own files raise reliability questions Bart Jansen @ganjansen USA TODAY

The Transportation Security Administration program to spot suspected terrorists based on deceptive behavior among travelers is unreliable and raises questions about racial and religious bias, according to a report from the American Civil Liberties Union based on documents in TSA files.

The program, which has grown to about 3,000 behavior detection officers, has long been contentious in Congress. Government watchdogs have urged reduced spending on the program because of the difficulty proving scientifically that criminals or terrorists could be spotted by suspicious behavior.

But TSA administrators have defended and expanded the program as a crucial layer of aviation security.

The ACLU report resulted from a June 2015 lawsuit under the Freedom of Information Act that forced the release of more than 12,000 pages of documents about the program.

The 28-page report obtained

by USA TODAY reviewed TSA investigations of allegations of racial and religious discrimination and uncovered details that haven’t been previously revealed.

The report also found TSA’s files were filled with academic research that questioned the validity of behavior detection while the agency maintains the program is grounded in science.

“It should go without saying that our government shouldn’t be implementing programs that are either scientifically bogus or that raise the risk of unlawful racial and religious profiling,” said Hugh Handeyside, staff attorney in ACLU’s National Security Project. “There is no indication — at least according to what the TSA has in its own files — that this kind of program can be done in a reliable and scientifically valid way in an airport context.”

The behavior detection program began in 2007 and was called SPOT, for Screening of Passengers by Observation Techniques. The goal was for officers roaming through airports, either in uniform or plainclothes, to detect behavioral clues for deception that might signal a traveler’s

A Transportation Security Administration officer talks with travelers in 2011 at Boston Logan Airport. Documents in the TSA’s files cast doubt on the reliability of behavioral observation. intent to commit violence.

Watchdogs have long been skeptical.

A review of 400 studies over 60 years found the chance of spotting deceptive behavior only slightly better than flipping a coin, according to a Government Accountability Office report in November 2013.

During 2011 and 2012, behavior detection officers referred 8,700 travelers at 49 airports to law enforcement officers, GAO found. The referrals led to 365 arrests, mostly for suspected drugs or immigration status, but not terrorism.

Among the 110,000 referral

ly called for program to be abolished and the officers shifted to checkpoint screening.

“We think the program should simply be discontinued,” Handeyside said.

Still, TSA administrators have defended and expanded the program.

John Pistole, who was TSA administrator from 2010 to 2014, finalized the program’s mission statement, goals and objectives in December 2012. The program “is effective and has been validated and determined to identify substantially more high-risk travelers than a random screening protocol,” Pistole told a House

“Our government shouldn’t be implementing programs that are either scientifically bogus or that raise the risk of unlawful racial and religious profiling.”

records from 2009 through 2012, the inspector general for the Department of Homeland Security found 7,019 didn’t identify the officer involved, 1,194 didn’t meet the criteria for referral, and 143 didn’t contain an airport code where the incident took place.

The watchdogs have repeatedly urged a reduction in spending on the program that totaled $1.5 billion through 2015. Lawmakers including Rep. Bennie Thompson of Mississippi, the top Democrat on the Homeland Security Committee, have repeated-

hearing in June 2013.

Peter Neffenger, who was TSA administrator for a year and a half until departing for the new administration Jan. 20, told a Senate panel in June that security agencies around the world use behavior detection, which shows there is some value to what will never be a perfect system.

The ACLU lawsuit uncovered cases and details about episodes of alleged racial profiling at specific airports that haven’t been previously reported: uA Newark investigation that

became public in 2011 led to the demotion of a behavior detection manager. The ACLU report said TSA rightly investigated the case and took some corrective action, but also uncovered additional details about the case.

The deputy assistant federal security director who investigated the case found “overwhelming evidence” that the manager ordered officers to require greater scrutiny for Dominicans, Mexicans and Puerto Ricans based on “non-existent” behaviors and to make improper referrals to Customs and Border Protection.

Two security managers based in Boston also found “it is reasonable to conclude that a procedure for profiling or identifying illegal aliens was implemented by several” officers at Newark. uIn Miami, a 2014 investigation found at least 10 officers reported that their manager “provided false or misleading information” to other officers to scrutinize travelers more. uAt Chicago’s O’Hare airport, a 2013 investigation began after an officer submitted an anonymous letter that claimed officers were encouraged to focus on travelers of Middle Eastern descent boarding Royal Jordanian and Etihad Airways flights.

TSA found no evidence of racial profiling in the case because only nine passengers were turned over to law enforcement during the period in question. uIn Honolulu, a TSA investigation that became public in 2011 found insufficient evidence that two officers engaged in profiling.

travel ban. uMost of the incidents were perpetrated by home-grown terrorists, with only 11 involving a demonstrated connection to the seven banned nations. uOnly 10 of the incidents happened on U.S. soil. uWhile some of the incidents involved dozens of deaths, 38 had no fatalities. uThree of the incidents aren’t even properly classified as terrorist incidents, according to the National Consortium for the Study of Terrorism and Responses to Terrorism. They include an attack by a French national who killed his British backpacking companion in Australia after she rejected his advances.

The list was compiled after the president made his claim that news organizations ignored or downplayed terrorist attacks tied to Muslims. But the White House’s list included well-chronicled, large-scale attacks — including shootings and bombings in Orlando, Brussels, Paris and San Bernardino, Calif.

And the list contained several errors, including the date of a 2015 attack in Bosnia-Herzegovina. That attack, which killed two soldiers, was carried out by a French national who was said to have fundamentalist views, although no terror group claimed responsibility.

Nevertheless, the White House claimed the events have not received “the spectacular attention they deserve.”

The debate over terrorism coverage is the latest example of White House staffers left to justify Trump’s unfounded assertions after the fact. Trump has made

“The terror list was both an attempt to flood the zone and move the goalposts.”

Nicole Renee Hemmer, assistant professor at the University of Virginia’s Miller Center

widely disputed claims about the crowd size at his inauguration, widespread voter fraud and cyberattacks on the Democratic National Committee.

In releasing the list of terror incidents, White House officials said Trump was arguing that terrorist attacks have become so pervasive that they do not spark the intensity of coverage they once did. That criticism echoes complaints in some conservative websites that the mainstream media are engaged in a campaign of misinformation to play down what they call the “jihadist” nature of some of the attacks committed by “Islamists.”

InfoWars, a conspiracy-minded website with a radio show that has interviewed Trump, is one outlet pushing this line. Sample headline: “FAKE NEWS: MAINSTREAM MEDIA WHITEWASHES ISLAMIC TERROR IN BERLIN: Propagandists desperate to hide the obvious.”

“The terror list was both an attempt to flood the zone and move the goalposts,” says Nicole Renee Hemmer, assistant professor at the University of Virginia’s Miller Center. “It was an absurd list, mixing non-terror events with very small events with huge, arguably overcovered events like the Sydney cafe attack.”

That incident, in which a lone gunman took hostages in a 16hour standoff in Australia, was initially categorized as a terror at-

tack but later attributed by prosecutors to “a complex, disturbed individual desperate for recognition.”

Hemmer says it’s succeeded in changing the subject: “It’s so muddied the waters that few people are talking about the actual claim Trump made, that news media are essentially colluding with terrorists by not covering attacks,” he says.

And it’s the second time in a

month that Trump has attacked the media in a speech to a national security audience. He also bemoaned the “dishonest” media during a meeting at the CIA the day after his swearing-in.

The latest controversy began Monday at MacDill Air Force Base in Tampa when Trump addressed the military command at the forefront of the war on terror.

“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,” he said.

Asked to explain those remarks Tuesday, Trump turned the subject to the coverage of him.

“I happen to know, because I’m reported on possibly more than anybody in the world. I don’t think you’ll say anything about that,” he said. “I understand the total dishonesty of the media better than anybody, and I let people know it. I mean, the media is a very, very dishonest arm.”

The White House list sent several news organizations checking their archives for quick audits of their news coverage. USA TODAY found more than 200 stories about the incidents. The attacks that went unreported involved two or fewer deaths.

After checking its archives, NBC News said it covered 57 of the 78 attacks on the Trump list, incidents that resulted in the deaths of 745 people. “By contrast,” the network reported, “the 21 attacks NBC News did not cover were smaller incidents in places like Egypt, Bosnia or Bangladesh, resulting in the deaths of just eight people, total.”

Pence casts historic vote to confirm DeVos as Education secretary VP first to break tie on Cabinet nominee Todd Spangler

Detroit Free Press

The Senate confirmed Betsy DeVos as the nation’s 11th Education secretary Tuesday in a historic vote, ending a tumultuous battle over her nomination.

White House press secretary Sean Spicer expressed a vote of confidence from President Trump in his newest Cabinet secretary despite opponents saying she is unqualified to serve. “The president believes strongly that our nation’s success depends on education of our students, and Betsy DeVos has devoted nearly three decades of her time and talent to promoting educational opportunity,” he said.

DeVos, 59, has long been a polarizing figure in Michigan’s political and education circles for her support of vouchers, which allow public money to follow students to the schools of their choice, and charter schools. In the weeks since a rocky confirmation hearing, she became a cause célèbre for opponents. Congressional offices were inundated with angry calls urging her to be rejected, and she was the subject of angry teacher protests nationwide.

With only two GOP members of the Senate — Susan Collins of Maine and Lisa Murkowski of Alaska — refusing to support DeVos’ nomination, it left Democrats with a 50-50 tie to block her. Vice President Pence, in his role as Senate president, cast the tie-breaking vote in her favor.

It marked the first time in U.S. history that a vice president was called upon to break a tie vote over a presidential Cabinet nomination.

Reaction to the vote was swift.

There were no immediate reports of deaths after four twisters hit the region, leaving 10,000 homes without power and prompting Louisiana Gov. John Bel Edwards to declare a state of emergency. Dozens of homes, cars and businesses were damaged.

“It’s bad,” he told the Associated Press. “I’ve never seen it this bad.”

Twisters also touched down near Donaldsonville, Killian and Ponchatoula, the Storm Prediction Center said. NASA reported damage and minor injuries at its facility in Michoud.

Initial reports indicate dozens of minor injuries and two seriously wounded, New Orleans Mayor Mitch Landrieu told the Associated Press.

Residents were stunned by the level of destruction.

Four of them huddled in a bedroom as the twister hit, knocking down part of the roof and blowing out the windows. All their cars were totaled, she told the Associated Press. Her niece worried about her homework, stuck inside a damaged computer.

Her father made millions in the auto parts trade. Her younger brother Erik founded the government services company Blackwater USA. She is married to Dick DeVos, son of Richard DeVos Sr., a founder of Amway. Since 1991, his family has owned the Orlando Magic basketball team.

Education: DeVos earned a bachelor’s degree in business economics in 1979 from Calvin College, a private Christian liberal arts college.

As a freshman, she served in the college’s student senate after winning a seat without a vote — the college says too few students applied to hold one. About 2,700 Calvin students and alumni protested her nomination in a Jan. 27 open letter. r r.

The conservative Club for Growth applauded the victory, saying DeVos beat back a “fullcourt press” by teachers unions, aided in part by its own “six-figure investment in TV and digital ads and robocalls to caution potential Republican defectors.”

Kelly on travel ban: ‘I should have consulted Congress’

Homeland Security chief also testifies on border wall Erin Kelly

USA TODAY

Homeland Security Secretary John Kelly said Tuesday that he should have delayed the implementation of President Trump’s temporary travel ban on immigrants and refugees for at least a day or two to tell congressional leaders what was about to happen.

He also told members of the House Homeland Security Committee that it would not be possible to build a 2,000-mile-long wall along the U.S.-Mexico border quickly and that he would focus on erecting sections of seethrough fencing in areas where Customs and Border Protection officials say it is needed most.

Kelly, in his first testimony before Congress since being confirmed Jan. 20, promised to work more closely with congressional leaders before taking action to execute an executive order as dramatic as Trump’s travel ban. The president’s executive order imposed a 120-day ban on refugees entering the U.S. and a 90-day ban on most citizens of Libya, Iraq, Iran, Somalia, Sudan and Libya. It also indefinitely barred Syrians from entering the U.S. “In retrospect, I should have delayed it just a bit to talk to congressional leaders to prepare them for what was coming,” Kelly said. He later added, “Lesson learned, on me, I should have slowed it down by a day, maybe two.” He also said he probably shouldn’t have executed the order on a Friday afternoon.

“Going forward, I would certainly have taken some time to inform the Congress, and that’s something I’ll do in the future,” Kelly said.

However, he defended the goals of the temporary travel ban, which he referred to as a “pause” to allow his department to ensure WASHINGTON

Iran’s supreme leader mocked President Trump on Tuesday, thanking “Mr. Newcomer” for revealing “the real face” of human rights with his contentious executive order that would ban citizens from Iran and six other nations from entering the United States.

Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, in an address to Iranian military commanders posted on his website, also scoffed at Trump for tweeting that Iran was “playing with fire” by conducting a missile test last week. Iranians should appreciate how kind Obama was to them by easing sanctions, Trump said, adding “Not me!”

The Ministry of Public Health said the blast wounded dozens of others. uSyrian authorities hanged as many as 13,000 people in a fouryear period as part of a “systematic attack against the civilian population,” a report by Amnesty International said Tuesday. The executions took place at the Saydnaya military prison between September 2011 and December 2015, the human rights organization says.

ANDREW HARNIK, AP

Homeland Security Secretary John Kelly testifies Tuesday before the House Homeland Security Committee.

“In retrospect, I should have delayed it just a bit to talk to congressional leaders to prepare them for what was coming.”

John Kelly, Homeland Security secretary

that people coming from the seven predominantly Muslim nations have been properly vetted and that terrorists are not slipping into the U.S. by pretending to be refugees.

“It is our duty to protect our citizens from terrorists,” Kelly said, adding that he believes the order will survive court challenges. “We believe it is lawful and constitutional.”

The order was blocked by U.S. District Judge James Robart in Seattle on Friday while court challenges continue to play out.

The Trump administration appealed to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit in San Francisco to reinstate the travel ban while the case progresses.

Kelly made it clear that Americans should not expect what Trump has called a “big beautiful” wall to be built quickly on the Southwest border. In fact, that wall may end up being sections of fencing to plug the most glaring gaps in border security rather than one huge, long wall, he said.

“We’re not going to be able to build a wall everywhere, all at once,” the retired Marine general said. “We’re not going to build it all in an afternoon.”

Kelly said it’s hard to say how long a wall or walls will take to build because it depends on funding. House Speaker Paul Ryan, RWis., and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., have said they expect the Trump administration to ask Congress to approve an emergency funding request of $12 billion to $14 billion to pay for the wall. Trump insists that Mexico will reimburse U.S. taxpayers for the cost, but Mexico has vowed that it will not pay for the barrier.

Kelly said he recently visited the border in Texas and talked to Customs and Border Protection officials who told him “their preference was not to have something they couldn’t see through.” Instead, Kelly said, they wanted transparent barriers, backed up with technology.

THE MOTLEY FOOL: ASK K A FOOL

Do has a numbers issue Dow

Price: 12.34

The Motley Fool

A: The Dow Jones industrial average is perhaps the most wellknown n stock index in n the world, and milestones achieved by the index, such as the recent market rally to “Dow 20, 0 000, 0, 000 ” are closely watched by the media. But the S&P 500 is a far better indicator of how the stock market is doing.

The Dow has two major flaws investors nvestors should be aware of. n First, it only considers the performance of 30 companies — hardly a good representation n of the 5,000-plus New York Stock Exchange and NASDAQ-listed stocks.

Change -$0.18 % chg -1.4%

Second, the Dow is a priceweighted index, which means higher-priced stocks have more n the index’s perforinfluence on mance than n lower-priced ones.

For example, at about $230 per share, Goldman n Sachs has more than n seven times the impact on the Dow’s performance as General Electric at about $30 per share, even n though General Electric is nearly three times its size, by market cap.

On n the other hand, the S&P 500 considers 500 large companies, as the name implies — almost 17 times as many ny as the n Dow. More significantly, tly the S&P tly, 500 is a market cap-weighted index, meaning larger companies have more influence over the index than n smaller ones.

Ford makes mak already big Expedition ev eve ven bigger Mark Phelan

Detroit Free Press DETROIT Ford un unveiled the new, ew ew, aluminum-bodied version n of its biggest SUV SUV, the Expedition, on Tuesday that is both larger and lighter than n the aging version n it replaces.

In n a throwback to the last decade, the timing would appear just right for the revised SUV as low gas prices and demand for larger vehicles could put Expedition n solidly back as a top seller.

ULI HECKMANN

The 2018 Ford Expedition has an all-aluminum body.

Built in n Louisville, it promises better ffuel economy and new features when n it goes on sale this

fall. It’s Ford’s first complete reworking of the big SUVs in n about 15 years.

The Expedition n grows 4 inches in n length with more than 3 inches in n the wheelbase. The bigger Expedition n Max — previously called the Expedition n EL – grows 1 inch.

Its wheelbase is unchanged.

“The 2018 Expedition n arrives on n the market at a good time,” A totrader senior analyst MiAu chelle Krebs said. “Sales of ffullsize (sport) utilities were up 22% in 2016, with the sales momentum expected to continue in 2017.

7 7.

The Expedition n has headroom for

higher pricing. More volume times bigger prices equals beefy profits for Ford.”

Both SUVs will be powered by a 3.5-liter twin-turbo V-6 engine linked to a 10-speed automatic transmission. Ford expects the combination n to improve ffu uel economy and give it class-leading towing capacity. Like Ford’s F-series pick pickups, it adopts all-aluminum body panels and has a new frame.

F ll-size SUVs such as the ExFu pedition n have been surging. Sales of the Expedition n increased 44% in 2016 to 59,835 9 9,835 in n the U.S.

The Expedition n competes with SUVs such as the Chevrolet Tahoe, GMC Y Yukon, Nissan n Armada and Toyota Sequoia. The Max competes with the Chevrolet Sub u urban ub n and d GMC Y Yukon n XL. New interior features include a rotary shifter on n the center console. The second-row seats will slide fore and aft to adjust legroom and for access to the third row which will recline and rerow, tains its previous power-folding feature. The Expedition n seats up to seven n or eight, depending on whether the middle row has two captain’s chairs or a bench seat.

Dear Annie: I have been involved with a local nonprofit animal activist group for the past 12 years. About three years ago, we had a woman whom I will call ‘’Susan’’ join our group. Right off the bat, Susan was causing drama and even called the police on a volunteer who changed the password on our adoption site without telling anyone.

My gut told me that this wasn’t going to go well. She started off friendly with me, but she slowly developed a lot of anger toward me and has become a bully. I don’t mean to sound conceited, but I think she is jealous of all the work I put into the organization and what I have accomplished.

The last straw was when I found out that she hadn’t applied for a grant two years in a row because she didn’t think it was worth her

time. This is a grant that we used to apply for every year and get money from every year.

She talked to other members and got one to nominate her for president. Fortunately, this didn’t work out. I made clear that I can’t work with Susan and would quit if she were president.

Annie, this has caused so much stress and pain to me and my family. I have cried so many tears over this. How can I continue to help the animals

‘Legion’ is dazzling, well-acted ‘’Mind-bending’’ is a phrase that’s fallen out of favor. But it’s the perfect way to describe “Legion” (9 p.m., FX), a visually dazzling and well-acted new drama that seems destined to become the thinking person’s comic book series.

The show’s audacious style grabs you from the start. The opening sequence offers a visual montage of a man’s growth from cradle to adulthood, from Mommy’s little darling to troubled teenage vandal to a heavily medicated 30-something all too accustomed to institutions.

David Haller (Dan Stevens, ‘‘Downton Abbey’’) has been hearing voices all his life and taking medication and conferring with a therapist for nearly as long.

He’s first seen passing idle time with his chatty sidekick, Lenny (Aubrey Plaza, ‘’Parks & Recreation’’), who seems more animated and addled than David.

His routine changes with the arrival of the beautiful Syd (Rachel Keller, ‘‘Fargo’’), who is open to being David’s girlfriend but utterly phobic about physical contact.

It would reveal too much to discuss their interaction and the changes it brings to David’s life and his self-awareness. Look for Jean Smart (‘‘Fargo’’) as a reassuring presence. ‘’Legion’’ features a plot and a visual approach that defy easy description. It simply has to be seen.

Some may find the series’ depictions of schizophrenia more than a little disturbing. Others may fault its overtly ‘’druggy’’ atmosphere, even though the mindaltering substances taken here are prescribed by authority figures.

The name of David’s new friend Syd Barrett clearly refers to the founding member of Pink Floyd, whose use of hallucinogens and subsequent institutionalization have become part of rock and roll history. David’s name may or may not refer to the title character played by Keir Dullea in the 1962 film ‘’David and Lisa,’’ a love affair set in a mental institution that also featured a fear of physical contact.

As someone who has long outgrown comic books, I can understand how ‘’Legion’’ might appeal to a generation too familiar with the casual medication of inconvenient behavior as well as the mass incarceration of young men of color. ‘’Legion’’ just may be a story for our times. I didn’t say they were good times.

O “So Cosmo’’ (7 p.m., E!) documents the high-strung antics of the staff at a fashion/lifestyle magazine. It’s nothing you haven’t seen before. Wake me up when they document Teen Vogue.

Tonight’s other highlights

O Shepherd’s identity is revealed

on “Blindspot” (7 p.m., NBC).

O Cahill attracts a stalker on “Lethal Weapon” (7 p.m., Fox).

and stay with the group and handle being around this woman? — Frustrated Animal Activist Dear Frustrated: It sounds as if someone needs to take charge of this situation to save the organization. Who better than you? You’ve been involved for years; it’s something you clearly care deeply about. And if even that drama queen can persuade people to nominate her, then you should be a shoo-in.

Dear Annie: My opinion of your response to ‘’Torn,’’ whose wife was asked to accompany their widower neighbor on a business trip for three weeks to do household tasks, differs from yours.

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS

For Wednesday, Feb. 8: This year you see the pros and cons of different situations more clearly. As a result, you make stronger decisions. The unexpected occurs. You also open up to new ideas.

If you are single, a new type of person could enter your life and encourage you to embrace life more openly. If you are attached, you will experience many changes as a couple.

The stars show the kind of day you’ll have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult Aries (March 21-April 19) +++ You will know what to do based on others’ reactions to a problem. Tonight: Get the lay of the land before deciding which way to go.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) +++++ Reach out to someone you care a lot about. Once you detach and can see the whole situation, your perspective will change.

Tonight: Enjoy a brief workout first.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) +++++ Your creativity and energy might undermine your goals and objectives. Tonight: Let your hair down.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) ++++ A friend’s imagination could help spark some of your own ideas. Do some needed research. Tonight: Happiest at home.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) ++++ You might feel as if a loved one is infuriated by your actions and/or decisions. Stay more in tune with your long-term desires.

Tonight: Your perspective changes

alone in a condo for three weeks with a 30-year-old woman could lead to all sorts of things, whether planned or not. There are usually housekeeping services available for hire at these facilities, which the widower could take advantage of. The husband could offer to take his wife to that destination for their next vacation.

My assessment is that the husband and perhaps you are a bit naive. Would you give the same advice if the widower were in his 30s or 40s? — J.S. Dear J.S.: I see your point, but I hope you’re wrong. I stand by my advice that every relationship is different and that the only two people who know what’s right for the marriage are the husband and wife.

Falcons begin process of getting over Super Bowl loss AMERICAN FOOTBALL CONFERENCE EAST

By Paul Newberry AP Sports Writer

Flowery Branch, Ga. (ap) — Sean Weatherspoon walked through the Atlanta Falcons locker room, shouting out to no one in particular.

“Hey, y’all don’t forget about the good times!” he yelled, managing a big smile.

There were a few chuckles, but it wasn’t enough to change the mood.

The Falcons are still trying to grasp how they let a Super Bowl championship slip away.

Less than 48 hours after squandering a 25-point lead and losing in overtime to the New England Patriots, the players were back together Tuesday to clean out their lockers and take care of other routine matters before getting started on the offseason.

Of course, this didn’t feel routine at all.

Not with the way the season ended.

“It just felt like it was a dream,” defensive star Vic Beasley said. “But it’s reality.

You’ve just got to accept it.”

The Falcons wasted no time addressing one of their biggest issues, hiring Steve Sarkisian as their new offensive coordinator. The former Washington and Southern Cal coach spent only one game as Alabama’s offensive coordinator, calling plays for the Crimson Tide in their national championship loss to Clemson.

Sarkisian replaced Kyle Shanahan, who left on Monday to become head coach of the San Francisco 49ers.

Meanwhile, the players filled trash bags with items they no longer needed, signed footballs and helmets for each other, and made plans for getting together in the weeks to come.

Some of them won’t be back

BRIEFLY Police still searching for Brady jersey Houston (ap) — Tom Brady and his missing jersey have still not been reunited.

Brady’s jersey was taken from the New England Patriots’ locker room at Houston’s NRG Stadium after the team’s 34-28 victory over Atlanta in the Super Bowl on Sunday.

On Tuesday, Houston Police Executive Assistant Chief George Buenik said officials still have no leads on who swiped the jersey.

Buenik says investigators are still working to identify who was in the locker room at the time of the theft.

Baylor assistant fired, accused of soliciting prostitute Waco, Texas (Ap) — Baylor University fired a newly hired assistant strength and conditioning coach after he was arrested on a prostitution solicitation charge.

Brandon Washington was fired Saturday after school officials learned he had been arrested earlier in the day on suspicion of a misdemeanor punishable by up to 180 days in a jail and a $2,000 fine.

Deputies arrested the 33-year-old coach at a Waco-area hotel, McLennan County Sheriff Parnell McNamara said.

Rhule was hired from Temple, where Washington was on his staff.

Baylor officials said the school conducted a full background check before hiring Washington. Jason Cook declined to comment on the specifics of the check or how the private school handles them in general, calling it a personnel issue.

Boston (ap) — Snow, rain and chilly temperatures didn’t dampen the joy of New England Patriots fans exulting in their team’s latest championship Tuesday.

The five-time Super Bowl winners received a hero’s welcome as they paraded through downtown Boston aboard World War II-era duck boats that have become a staple of the city’s recent title celebrations.

Sounds of “Brady! Brady!” ‘‘TB12!” and “MVP” rang out throughout the procession as fans proudly wore No. 12 jerseys over thick parkas and sweaters, holding signs declaring star quarterback Tom Brady the G.O.A.T. — the greatest of all time.

Brady grinned and just took it all in, at one point tossing footballs back and forth with fans on the route as the duck boats rumbled along.

“We’re going to remember this one for the rest of our lives and we know you will too,” he shouted from a stage at the parade’s end at City Hall. “I told you we were going to bring this sucker home and we brought it home!”

Cannons shot out red, white and blue confetti along the route, which started near the Boston Marathon finish line, where three spectators were killed and 260 others wounded in bombing attacks in April 2013. The route wound past famous city landmarks such as historic Faneuil Hall and the Boston Common.

Fans were still in disbelief over New England’s stunning 34-28 comeback win in overtime against the Atlanta Falcons.

“We were all sweating bullets the whole time, and then we saw the best comeback in the world and the greatest thing we’ve ever seen,” said James Mastrangelo, a Quincy, Massachusetts, resident decked out Mardi Gras-style, with a red, white and blue mask and Patriots sneakers, sweater, gloves

Phyllis Barone, of Saugus, Massachusetts, held up a large cardboard cutout of Brady and did her best to join the boisterous crowd in rowdy chants of “Go Pats.” But her raspy, weakened voice betrayed her.

“Three days of cheering. I’m surprised I still have anything left,” she said. “I’m a true diehard fan.”

Stephen Skobeleff, of Winthrop, Massachusetts, said he’s tried to bring his two teenage children to as many championship parades as he can.

“For years and years and years we really didn’t have anything but the Celtics,” he said of the city’s NBA team. “Every parade I get nervous that it will be the last one.”

Along the route, Patriots players held up some of the team’s five Lombardi trophies.

Fan favorite Rob Gronkowski, who went down with an injury before the team’s playoff run, energized the crowd with his typical Gronk antics. The tight end took off his shirt and chugged beers tossed up to the duck boats by fans, while other players held a wrestling championship-style belt over his head.

Some players waved black “Roger That” T-shirts show-

ing fists with five championship rings as fans reciprocated with their own handmade signs deriding NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell.

There’s little love for Goodell in Patriots Nation after he handed Brady a four-game suspension at the start of the season for his role in the “Deflategate” scandal, a dispute that wound through federal court twice as the NFL found Brady responsible for using underinflated footballs during a playoff game in 2015.

Once again on Tuesday, the 39-year-old Brady was unquestionably the center of attention.

The crowd showered the MVP of Super Bowl 51 with chants of “MVP” and “We Want Six” as the snow, which fell in thick wet clumps most of the morning, broke just long enough for Brady and others to speak onstage.

Coach Bill Belichick said this year’s team was the hardest working group he’s ever coached.

“They came to work every day and there were no days off,” he said.

The typically gruff, no-nonsense coach led the crowd of thousands, who likely skipped school or work to fete their team, in an impromptu chant: “No days off!”

FSHS girls roll past SM North Firebirds CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1C

Free State girls basketball coach Ted Juneau wasn’t worried about how his team would play offensively despite not having the team’s leading scorer, Madison Piper.

Juneau was much more concerned with how his team would be able to fill the void of Piper

(left foot) on the defensive end. The Firebirds responded with a wellexecuted zone defense in their 43-28 victory over Shawnee Mission North at home Tuesday.

“I told them yesterday, I wasn’t searching for more points,” Juneau said, “I’m search for more defense and rebounding. That’s what we lose with Madison

gone. We are capable of scoring the basketball.

We have some pretty good shooters.”

But it took a bit for FSHS to get accustomed to playing without its senior leader. The Indians leaped out to a 12-8 advantage in the first period, as freshman Eylia Bruce netted half of her game-high 24 points on 10 shots.

LHS girls slip against SM Northwest

By Bobby Nightengale bnightengale@ljworld.com

When Olivia Lemus saw her potential game-tying shot fall short and heard the final buzzer sound Tuesday, she walked over to the handshake line and pulled her jersey up to her eyes.

and crazy, but we did a good job of getting the W.” Kansas basketball coach Bill Self has marveled all season about his team’s love of playing on the biggest and brightest stages and its ability to deliver in the toughest environments.

With wins in Madison Square Garden over then-No. 1 Duke, at Iowa State in always-hostile Hilton Coliseum and at Kentucky’s rocking Rupp Arena already under their belt heading into Monday’s showdown in Manhattan, the third-ranked

to check it out has been a source of frustration.

This staff, particularly with Louisiana recruits, isn’t afraid to go headto-head with national powerhouses, and more and more blue-chip prospects are visiting and committing. Now comes the challenge of getting them to stay loyal to KU through the next signing day, in December.

Don’t count Hull among those at a loss for explaining Lawrence becoming an attractive destination for Louisiana athletes.

Speaking well before this round of verbal commitments took place, Hull said, “Surprised?

No, because I was as re-

it felt like a game that slipped away. It was every bit of the slugfest that was expected between two teams ranked inside of the top 10 in the state, but the Lions lost to Shawnee Mission Northwest, 45-42, at LHS. Trailing by three points with four seconds left, the Lions inbounded the ball from half court, but Lemus didn’t have enough

space for a clean look at the rim.

“We’ve all seen Olivia play over the last four years and for her to miss it by five feet, I have to believe she got fouled,” LHS coach Jeff Dickson said. “But they decided not to call that and that’s how it goes.”

The Lions will play host to Olathe Northwest at 5:30 p.m. Friday.

Jayhawks certainly have provided plenty of evidence to support Self’s belief.

And after the game Self offered a glimpse into why this group of veteran Jayhawks has been so successful in that department this season.

“That’s all we talked about, use their energy to give you energy,” said Self, noting that the KState crowd actually helped Kansas win Monday’s game. “And we even talked about different scenarios and how it was gonna help us. I think their crowd energized our guys. I think they really enjoyed playing here.”

Graham agreed and said he appreciated his coach finding a way to

inpsire the Jayhawks to turn a potential negative into a positive.

“It’s definitely a great thing and I think we do a good job of doing that,” said Graham of stealing energy on the road.

“Everywhere we go, the crowds are real juiced up and want to see their team beat us so we just try to use that momentum from their crowd and pump it through our bench.”

Only when the job was finished, with 0.4 seconds showing on the clock and Kansas leading by three points and in possession of the ball, did the Jayhawks flip the script and start playing antagonist to the crowd that helped fuel their victory.

With his fists in the air and arms flexed above his

shoulders, senior guard Frank Mason III placed one finger on his lips and fired the “Shhh” gesture to the crowd.

Asked about the late antics following the game, Mason explained that he got caught up in the adrenaline rush that came from all of the antiKU roars.

“I just wanted more energy,” Mason said.

“The last few seconds, I was just trying to get the crowd into it even more.”

Kansas is now 6-1 in true road games this season and 10-2 in games played outside of Allen Fieldhouse.

Next up, the Jayhawks travel to Texas Tech on Saturday for a 1 p.m. clash with the Red Raiders in Lubbock, Texas.

ceptive to Kansas when I came here. I put myself in the shoes of a player, of how I was when I first came to Kansas and I how I viewed it and how I understand it. It’s been joyous to see kids from that area come here and see how much they enjoy it.”

Hull’s work on behalf of the Louisiana recruits once they move to campus extends beyond football tutoring. Whether it’s making sure Cajun seafood balls are on the menu at some team dinners, or seeing that crawfish étouffée is an option in the dining hall, or helping a player’s mother with the details of having her red beans shipped to her son, Hull counts little Louisiana touches such as those as important details.

“The great thing I love about kids from the area

the team’s latest thriller Tuesday.

Free State (10-4, No. 7 in 6A) trailed, 73-72, with 14.1 seconds remaining on the team’s final offensive possession. It marked the first time since midway through the first period that FSHS had been behind on the scoreboard, before a decisive 15-2 run to close out the opening period.

But even though they trailed, the team’s confidence never wavered.

Senior Jay Dineen delivered a perfect bounce pass to junior Garrett Luinstra, who had back cut his defender and went to the hoop. Luinstra’s layup rattled off the rim, and Clark was there to recover the miss and put it back in with 5.8 seconds left.

“We just need leaders on this team,” Clark said. “We are really playing five-on-five. We have to have some leadership out there. I just thought, ‘Why not me?’”

Still, the Firebirds had to get a stop on the defensive end, something that had been a problem for much of the second half as Indians senior Danny Bradley (35 points) had anchored a monstrous comeback attempt.

Bradley, who shot 15-of21 for the game, brought the ball up the court. Luinstra chased him every step of the way, and Pavlyak helped over when Bradley neared the perimeter. And just as Brad-

ley attempted to make his move, Pavlyak poked the ball loose to seal the victory.

“Bradley basically took over the game,” coach Sam Stroh said. “I haven’t seen a kid score 30 in a half like that. It was almost with ease. Sometimes you have to tip your cap to him, but I was glad we came away with the win.”

Stroh tried a combination of players, including Shannon Cordes, Luinstra, Dineen and Pavlyak on Bradley.

But no matter who was on him, Bradley was near unstoppable. He connected on all but three of his attempts in the second half, including a 6-of-6 effort in the third quarter, which helped erase a near 20-point deficit.

Bradley was held to a 3-of-6 mark in the first half, as the Firebirds jumped out to a sizable advantage. They led, 4225, at the intermission and had nine different players record a bucket in what had all the makings of a lopsided affair.

Free State will play host to Olathe South at 7 p.m. Friday.

thick bone-in pork chops (about 10 to 12 ounces each) 1/4 cup vegetable oil, divided 1 cup thinly sliced onion 3/4 cup thinly sliced red bell pepper 3/4 cup thinly sliced green bell pepper 1/3 cup thinly sliced celery 1 cup medium chopped cherry or plum tomatoes 2 teaspoons minced garlic 1 tablespoon flour 1 cup chicken broth 2 tablespoons Creole (whole grain) mustard Kosher salt and black pepper Directions: Sprinkle 1 teaspoon of the spice mix all over each chop, coating it well. Marinate the chops, covered, for at least 1 hour and preferably, 6 hours.

Preheat the oven to 350 F. Pat the chops dry. In a large skillet heat half the oil over medium-high heat.

Reduce the heat to medium, add 2 of the chops, cook them until nicely seared about 1 1/2 minutes a side and transfer them to a rimmed sheet pan. (Reduce the heat if the spice mix starts to color too much in the pan.) Add the remaining chops and sear them, transferring them to the sheet pan. Bake the chops on the middle shelf of the oven until they reach an internal temperature of 140 F, about 5 minutes.

Transfer them to a plate and cover loosely with foil.

Add the remaining oil and the onions to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is golden, about 5 minutes.

Add the peppers and celery and cook, covered, stirring occasionally until they are tender, about 10 minutes.

Add the tomatoes and garlic and cook, stirring occasionally until the tomato is softened, about 4 minutes. Add the flour and cook, stirring 1 minute.

Add the chicken broth, bring it to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer it for 2 minutes. Stir in the mustard and salt and pepper to taste.

Add the chops and any juices from the plate to the skillet and cook gently, turning the chops until they are warmed, about 1 minute. Transfer the chops to each of four plates and top each one with a mound of the pepper mixture.

Creole Spice Mix: Makes a scant 3 tablespoons 2 teaspoons hot paprika 1 1/2 teaspoons garlic powder 1 teaspoon kosher salt 3/4 teaspoon onion powder 3/4 teaspoon cayenne 3/4 teaspoon oregano 3/4 teaspoon thyme 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper In a small bowl combine all the ingredients and stir well.

ith Mardi Gras fast approaching, I thought it might be fun to salute New Orleans’ cuisine by finding a new use for the city’s unique and farfamed Creole spice mix.

Creole is the term used to describe something — or someone — of mixed European and African descent, like New Orleans itself. Creole spice mix typically includes several different types of ground pepper, as well as garlic, onion powder and dried herbs. In New Orleans they sprinkle it on meat, fish, poultry and vegetables, and add it to soups, gumbos and sauces. Since 1889, the pre-eminent commercial brand has been Zatarain’s, which describes its spice mix as “the delicious alternative to salt and pepper.”

Given that one of the mix’s main ingredients is indeed salt, I’ve always wondered why cooks didn’t add it to recipes earlier in the process.

Why not use it at the very beginning as a dry rub, giving the salt time to work its typical magic?

Doing so would not only deeply flavor the food in question, but — in the case of drier proteins like chicken, turkey and lean cuts of pork — it would help them to retain moisture, too.

Here, several hours before cooking, I rubbed my own Creole seasoning mix onto some pork chops. When the moment of truth arrived, I seared the chops and topped them off with the holy trinity of Cajun cooking — onions, bell peppers and celery — along with some tomatoes for good luck. Sure enough, the spice mix made a huge difference.

You’ll find commercial brands of the Creole spice mix at most supermarkets, but I invite you to use my recipe to whip up a batch at home. You’ll end up with more than you need for this dish, but the extra will keep nicely in the cupboard for at least six months ... allowing any day to taste like Mardi Gras.
