Kansas bill would keep fantasy sports legal amid dispute

Posted on February 16, 2015

TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) — A Kansas lawmaker is moving to keep fantasy sports leagues legal amid a dispute with the Kansas Racing and Gaming Commission.

Republican Rep. Brett Hildabrand of Shawnee submitted a bill to the Legislature Monday that would define fantasy sports as a game of skill. The distinction is important because the Kansas Racing and Gaming Commission said in August that fantasy sports meet the criteria of a lottery, which would make them illegal.

Under the Kansas Constitution, only the state is allowed to administer lotteries.

Hildabrand said he introduced the legislation so ordinary Kansans who enjoy fantasy football would not become criminals.

The federal government and 45 states consider fantasy sports legal games of skill. However, five states consider them illegal.

HINEMAN: Kansas agriculture is under attack

Posted on February 16, 2015

Back in the 1980s, the method of appraising agricultural land for property tax purposes was changed. At that time ag land, like all other classes of property, was valued on its market value. But inflationary pressures were making it difficult for farmers and ranchers to pay their property tax bill. Ag land is the only class of property which never grows, and the old saying that “they aren’t making any more” is entirely accurate.

Because of that unique characteristic of ag land, it has always represented a store of value and a safe haven for money in uncertain economic times. In other words, when the future is unpredictable, many people invest in ag land because it is seen as a very safe place to invest while they wait for better investment opportunities to develop elsewhere. That is certainly a large part of the reason that land prices have skyrocketed in recent years. For at least the past twenty years, ag land prices have steadily risen without any downturn while grain prices and yields have varied wildly from year to year. Land is subject to inflationary pressures that other classes of property avoid, and the reason is because they aren’t making any more!

So in 1986 the Kansas constitution was changed to allow ag land to be valued for property taxes based on its productive capability rather than its market value. It is a complicated formula, but works well to estimate the producing capability of the land. Now, however, that formula is under attack.

In 2012 when a massive income tax cut was proposed, assurances were made that cutting income tax would not result in higher property taxes. Many of us were not buying the story then, and we now have solid evidence that the ploy was a smokescreen to gain enough votes to pass the tax cut.

Last week Senator Jeff Melcher (R-Leawood) introduced a bill which would radically alter the way that agricultural land is valued for property tax purposes. SB 178 would cause a massive tax shift from all other classes of property and increase taxes on ag land drastically. Statewide, the bill would increase valuations on dryland by an average of 408%, irrigated farmland by an average of 593% and grassland by an average of 672%. The effect on farmers, ranchers, and rural economies would be devastating.
Once again, the consequences of an overly-aggressive tax cut plan are becoming evident. Instead of laying waste to the economy of rural Kansas perhaps it is time to own up to the fact that we went too far, too fast. The tax cut of 2012 was a bad plan. Our focus now should be to correct the plan’s excesses.

I am honored to represent the people of the 118th District in Topeka, and I welcome your questions, concerns and suggestions.

Glynn named next provost of Fort Hays State University

Posted on February 16, 2015February 16, 2015

FHSU University Relations

The national search to fill a key position at Fort Hays State University has culminated in the selection of a provost whose wide experience has taken him from his native Ireland to England and to stops in New York, Nebraska, Pennsylvania and Michigan.

Dr. Graham Glynn, at present the vice provost and executive dean of college wide programs at Mercy College in New York City, will take over as provost at Fort Hays State on June 1.

FHSU is organized into four divisions: Academic Affairs; Administration and Finance; Information Technology; and Student Affairs. The provost, as chief academic officer, leads the Division of Academic Affairs. Dr. Larry Gould stepped down as provost in October 2013 to return to the classroom. Dr. Chris Crawford, who had served as assistant provost for 10 years, filled in as interim provost while the national search was underway.

In making the announcement today, Dr. Mirta M. Martin said the search committee sought a visionary academic leader who would enhance Fort Hays State’s stature as an innovative university that supports its current exceptional faculty and attracts new faculty of excellence. “As one of the four vice presidents, Dr. Glynn becomes a key player in developing the academic programs of distinction that make Fort Hays State a destination of choice,” President Martin said. “Graham brings a breadth and depth of experience that will be invaluable as we move through the process of re-engineering our university to create better efficiencies so that we can better serve our students. I am just thrilled to be able to welcome Graham and his family to the Tiger family. I know he will be a great fit.”

Glynn, who has a doctorate in neuroscience, has extensive experience in technology and the delivery of education at a distance, which is a widely recognized strength of Fort Hays State and its Virtual College. At Mercy College, he helped restructure the educational assessment process to improve student success and retention. He is an entrepreneur who started and ran his own software business that developed and sold a personal knowledge management application in 27 countries. At Creighton University, he initiated the online school of pharmacy, which nearly doubled enrollment and was the first online school of pharmacy in the world. With his family, Glynn has hosted international students from Africa, Europe, Korea, Japan, China and South America.

“I am very excited and honored to be joining the Tiger family and want to thank President Martin, the search committee and the campus community for their faith in me,” Glynn said. “Fort Hays State is a very special institution with a can-do attitude that embraces innovation. I had the opportunity to walk through many of the campus buildings the day after my official interview and was very impressed by the level of engagement and energy I saw between the faculty, staff and students. I look forward to working with and getting to know everyone.”

Dr. Mark Bannister, chair of the search committee and dean of FHSU’s College of Business and Entrepreneurship, said today: “The Provost Search Committee was very pleased by the depth of the candidate pool. FHSU attracted strong candidates from across the nation who had a variety of strengths and experiences. We were impressed by the candidates who visited campus and had confidence President Martin would have a quality pool to select from. I am excited about Dr. Glynn. He impressed the committee as a visionary.”

In addition to Bannister, the members of the search committee are Dr. Paul Faber, dean of the College of Arts and Sciences; Deborah Ludwig, dean of Forsyth Library; Brenda Hoopingarner, chair of the Department of Allied Health; Dr. Michael Meade, associate professor of English; Dr. Eric Deyo, assistant professor of physics and president of the Faculty Senate; Linn Ann Huntington, professor of communication studies and president of the FHSU Chapter of the American Association of University Professors; Arin Powers, a Woodward, Okla., junior and president of the Student Government Association; Dr. Keegan Nichols, assistant vice president for student affairs; DeBra Prideaux, director of governmental relations and the FHSU Alumni Association; and Matt Means, assistant professor of music and theatre and director of the Honors College.

Prior to becoming vice provost at Mercy College, Glynn was assistant provost and executive director of teaching, learning and technology at Stony Brook University in the state of New York from 2006 to 2011; director of the Royer Center for Learning and Academic Technologies at Penn State University in State College from 2003 to 2006; director of the Office of Information Technology and Learning Resources at the Creighton University School of Pharmacy and Health Professions in Omaha from 1999 to 2003; a visiting professor at the Open University in Milton Keynes, England, from April through June of 1999; an associate professor and coordinator of distance learning systems at Creighton from 1997 to 1999; an assistant professor of pharmacology at Ferris State University College of Pharmacy in Big Rapids, Mich., from 1993 to 1997; and a post-doctoral fellow in the Department of Neuro-Pharmacology at Parke-Davis Pharmaceutical Research (now Pfizer) in Ann Arbor, Mich.

Glynn earned a Ph.D. in neuroscience in 1990 from the N.E. Ohio Universities College of Medicine/Kent State University in Rootstown and a Bachelor of Science Degree in pharmacology and biochemistry in 1985 from the University College Dublin in Ireland. He also earned a Certificate in Business Administration in 2003 from Creighton University, a Certificate in Foundations of Effective Management in 2001 from Creighton and a Certificate in Multimedia and Internet Technology in 1996 from the University of Texas at Austin. He has published and lectured widely.

Kan. Senate bill would change which radioactive waste could go to landfills

Posted on February 16, 2015

By Kelsie Jennings
KU Statehouse Wire Service

TOPEKA – A Senate bill heard by the Kansas Natural Resources Committee would amend the definition of low-level radioactive materials, which would allow waste containing them to be buried in landfills.

Members of the Kansas Department of Health and Environment spoke before the committee in support of Senate Bill 125, saying that the current law’s definition was too broad and should not include naturally occurring radioactive materials, also known by the acronym “NORM.”

William Bider, director of waste management for the Kansas Department of Health and Environment, said that NORM is already in natural materials such as rocks. Bider said the current law, which was put in place in the 1980s, does not allow burial of low-level radioactive waste, and that the definition of NORM needs to be changed so these materials are not lumped into a group with materials that have high levels of radioactive waste.

Bider said even though burial of this material is prohibited by law, it’s already in landfills because of oil and gas drilling waste and construction demolition debris that has been going on for years.

He said nobody was aware that these materials had low-level NORM when the law was put in place, but it was discovered the last few years when they started doing sampling of drilling waste and comparing with other states. Now that they realize the disposal conflicts with the law so they need to alter the definition so it complies with the law.

“It’s safe levels, it’s low levels, and we want to make it legal,” Bider said.

Bider said the current law isn’t clear on what should be done with radioactive waste, it just says that it can’t be buried, so some waste companies have to take their radioactive waste to other states where they have proper disposal sites.

Bider said NORM levels range from low-level, mid-level, and high-level, which indicate how the waste should be disposed, with the low-level being unrestricted.

Bider and Tom Conley, chief of the radiation and asbestos control program at KDHE, said their tests show that drilling waste appears to be at a low level in Kansas but it varies state-to-state because of the types of rock.
Bider said drilling companies in Kansas are aware of environmental liability issues and want to be in compliance with the law.

“Some of the drillers would still want to make sure that the landfills that they send theirs to are legally able to take material with NORM in it,” Bider said.

Some waste management groups gave written support of the bill, but no opponents were present nor provided written testimony.

Western Kansas man dies after train collision

Posted on February 16, 2015February 16, 2015

CIMARRON- A Kansas man died in an accident just after 12:30 a.m. on Monday in Gray County.

The Kansas Highway Patrol reported a 1994 Lexus passenger vehicle driven by Lanh T. Tranh, 45, Garden City, was westbound on U.S. 50 three miles east of Cimarron.

The driver lost control due to icy the roadway. The vehicle came to a stop on the railroad tracks where it was struck by the Amtrak train.

Tranh was pronounced dead at the scene and transported Western Plains Regional Hospital Morgue.

Nobody on the train was injured. The train continued after a 2-hour delay.

FHSU wrestling claims three individual champs; finishes third at MIAA championships

Posted on February 16, 2015

FHSU Athletics

Fort Hays State had three individual champions and six All-MIAA performers at the MIAA Championships on Sunday (Feb. 15) in Warrensburg, Mo. Three of Fort Hays State’s four ranked wrestlers won individual titles, including No. 8 Noah Killip at 141 pounds, No. 8 Jon Inman at 184 pounds, and No. 5 Trey Page at 285 pounds.

At final count, the Tigers had eight placers – three champions, two second-place, one third-place, and two fourth-place finishers. Taking second were Josh Rodriguez at 174 pounds and Cash Drylie at 197 pounds. Joey Dozier claimed third at 149 pounds, while Garrett Jones (133) and Bradley Little (157) each claimed fourth.

To earn All-MIAA status, wrestlers have to finish in the top three. Those honors go to Killip, Inman, Page, Rodriguez, Drylie, and Dozier.

As a team, the Tigers finished third handily with 70.5 points, only behind champion Nebraska-Kearney (91.5) and Lindenwood (82). Central Oklahoma was fourth at 51, and then Central Missouri and Newman in fifth and sixth respectively to round out the six-team standings.

Scoring was hard to come by in the 141-pound final. After a scoreless first period, Noah Killip controlled his opponent throughout the entire second period to gain two minutes of riding time. In the process he nearly pinned his opponent, No. 5 ranked Kyle Webb of Lindenwood, with three nearfall points in the period to take a 3-0 lead. Webb countered in the third by controlling Killip for nearly the entire period, wiping out Killip’s potential riding time point. However, Webb could not find a scoring opportunity and a stall point was all he earned. Killip took the match by a 3-1 decision.

At 174 pounds, No. 7 ranked Josh Rodriguez looked as though he was going to give FHSU four champions on the day, getting a takedown in the third period with 10 seconds remaining to take a 5-4 lead on Archie Williams of Central Missouri. However, Williams escaped just a few seconds before the final buzzer to tie the match and force overtime where he used a duck-under move to score the sudden victory takedown on Rodriguez, a 7-5 decision.

Jon Inman looked to be cruising to a victory at 184 pounds against John McArdle of Lindenwood, up 6-2 after two periods. However, McArdle used a flurry of moves late to get the match tied 7-7, but Inman’s dominance early in the match was too much as he had a enough riding time accumulated for an extra point, winning 8-7. Inman avenged a loss to McArdle in last year’s MIAA Tournament Final, when he lost late on a pin even though he had the lead in the match.

Cash Drylie used an upset in the semifinals at 197 pounds to reach the finals. He knocked off fourth-ranked Kenny Breaux of Lindenwood with a fall at 4:00 to get a match with the No. 1 ranked wrestler in the nation, Romero Cotton of Nebraska-Kearney. Cotton was too much for Drylie in the championship, scoring a 13-2 major decision.

Trey Page dominated in the finals at heavyweight, running his season record to 41-2 overall. He shutout Jacob Borgmeyer of Lindenwood with a third-period tech fall of 15-0. It was his 12^th technical fall of the season.
Winning the third-place match at 149 pounds with a 9-5 decision was Joey Dozier. Dozier lost his semifinal match against Destin McCauley of UNK before knocking off Jared Mestas of Lindenwood for the consolation bracket win.

Full results from the tournament for FHSU wrestlers are posted below. The Tigers return to action at the NCAA Super Regional 4 in Pueblo, Colo., February 27-28.

Eye-opener: US teens getting less & less sleep, study shows

CHICAGO (AP) — A 20-year study says U.S. teens are getting sleepier. The result show many lack even seven hours of shut-eye each night and the problem has worsened over two decades.

The research involved nearly 300,000 teens asked in surveys since 1991 if they regularly got at least seven hours of sleep nightly. They were also asked if they got enough sleep.

Experts generally recommend nine or 10 hours of sleep for teens; over half of the 15- to 19-year-olds surveyed in 2012 said they didn’t even get seven hours each night.

The results heighten concerns about the impact of sleep deprivation on teens’ health and academics.

Results were published in Monday’s Pediatrics.
