Mental health evaluation ordered in McLinn case

FEAST

———

Motion for new trial denied; sentencing to follow report

By Caitlin Doornbos Twitter: @CaitlinDoornbos

Sarah Gonzales McLinn, convicted in March of first-degree murder in the death of CiCi’s Pizza owner Harold “Hal” Sasko, will undergo a mental health evaluation at Larned State Hospital before sentencing, Douglas County District Judge Paula Martin ruled Wednesday.

The results of that evaluation could determine whether McLinn receives mental health treatment or goes to prison, perhaps for 50 years with no chance for parole.

McLinn McLinn was originally set to be sentenced Wednesday, but her defense attorney, Carl Cornwell, filed a motion for a new trial. Martin rejected that request.

New guidelines not likely to affect fluoride content in city water

By Chad Lawhorn Twitter: @clawhorn_ljw

New federal guidelines about the amount of fluoride in drinking water supplies are not expected to change how much of the cavityfighting agent is added to Lawrence’s drinking water.

A spokeswoman for the

city’s utilities department said Lawrence’s drinking water already has less fluoride than the new guidelines announced by the Department of Health and Human Services on Monday.

“It looked like this was the direction it was heading for awhile, so we made the adjustment a few years ago,”

said Jeanette Klamm, a management analyst with the utilities department.

The new guidelines announced by federal health officials recommend no more than 0.7 milligrams of fluoride be added per liter of drinking water. The previous guidelines recommended a range of 0.7 milligrams

to 1.2 milligrams, with the higher amount being recommended particularly for colder weather regions of the United States.

Federal health officials made the new recommendation — the first change in federal fluoride standards in Please see WATER, page 2A

Lawmakers trying to assemble tax measures

By Peter Hancock Twitter: @LJWpqhancock

Topeka — Republican leaders in the Kansas Legislature are quietly trying to put together a package of tax measures to balance the state budget, but they say it will probably take until late next week before a plan is introduced.

“I think by the end of the week we may start to have a feel for what the solution possibilities could be,” House Taxation Committee Chairman Rep. Marvin Kleeb, R-Olathe, said Wednesday.

LAWRENCE • STATE

McLinn CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A

Jurors agreed in March that McLinn killed Sasko, her roommate at the time of his death, after viewing gory photographs of the crime scene, including a living room wall covered in blood and part of the word “FREEDOM” scrawled in the smear.

McLinn admitted to binding Sasko’s wrists and ankles, feeling for his carotid artery and plunging a hunting knife through his neck, nearly decapitating him.

The results of the mental health evaluation will become part of the presentence investigation report given to Martin. The reports are completed after conviction to help judges with sentencing decisions and typically include criminal histories and other factors.

If Martin decides McLinn is in need of treatment from Larned Correctional Mental Health Facility, and that sending her there would aid in her rehabilitation and not endanger the community, District Attorney Charles Branson said, the “Hard 50” sentencing option would be effectively off the table. “ I t ’ s e i t h e r Larned or the ‘Hard 50.’

If Larned were to say in five years, ‘She’s OK Branson to be released,’ then she would come back to the judge who would decide if she should go to prison or be released,” Branson said.

“It’s an open-ended sentence versus what the jury found.”

Cornwell argued that his client was not guilty by mental disease or defect because McLinn could not have formed intent because she suffered from dissociative identity disorder, or multiple personalities, after years of physical and sexual abuse. If jurors had found McLinn not guilty by reason of mental disease or defect, McLinn would have been sent for treatment at Larned Correctional Mental Health Facility.

Instead, the jury found that McLinn was guilty and that the act was “especially heinous or atrocious,” making her

Tax

the Statehouse Wednesday after a three and a half week break for the start of what traditionally is a short wrap-up session. During the break, however, state budget officials released new figures dramatically lowering the estimated amount of revenue available next year.

Based on the budget that House and Senate negotiators have tentatively agreed to, and depending on what assumptions one makes about measures Gov. Sam Brownback has proposed but which lawmakers have not yet approved, the gap between anticipated spending and projected revenue in next year’s budget can be anywhere from $131.4 million to $807 million.

But the generally accepted figure in the Statehouse is $422 million, which assumes lawmakers will pass all of Brownback’s proposed fund transfers and “revenue adjustments,” except his proposed tax increases on alcohol and tobacco products.

Sen. Jim Denning, ROverland Park, said he plans to propose a tax package that would include a significant change to one of the sweeping income tax cuts that law-

makers approved in 2012, the exemption for “passthrough income,” or the income that certain business owners receive from the operation of their businesses.

“Right now, there’s a way for all income to pass through tax-free, including owners’ wages,” Denning said. “That never was the legislative intent. So what my plan does is, I just use the Social Security wage base, which is $118,500, and say all the pass-through entities have to pay income on that amount, at a minimum. And then if they have income or working capital above that, then it can pass through tax-free, which was the legislative intent.”

Denning said that alone would generate about $160 million in additional revenue for the state. He is also proposing a slight increase in the state sales tax, and a tax on “passive” income such as rents and royalties. But he said he doesn’t yet have estimates of how much those measures would generate.

Kleeb said he has discussed that plan with Denning, and he believes

some of it may make its way in to the final package.

“There are three or four ideas out there when it comes to a pass-through income tax solution,” he said. “All of them have some merit. All of them are heading in pretty much the same direction.

It’s just some nuances of how to get there.”

But any change to the exemption for passthrough income is likely to meet stiff resistance from the Kansas business community. Last week, the National Federation of Independent Businesses began airing radio ads statewide, urging Kansans to call their legislators and oppose any such change.

And Brownback has said he does not want lawmakers to change course on income taxes, which he calls “a tax on productivity.” Instead, he wants to shift the state toward more reliance on “consumption taxes,” such as the sales tax.

The challenge for GOP leaders is to find a plan that both balances the budget and garners the necessary votes to pass both

eligible for the “Hard 50” sentence.

Cornwell on Wednesday argued McLinn should be evaluated to help the court in deciding a sentence.

“I would think it would be helpful to have a neutral third party to decide if she has a mental illness and whether or not they could help her,” Cornwell said.

Cornwell said he was convinced that his client has mental health issues and that he believes she would be better served at Larned.

Branson ar- Cornwell gued that McLinn could receive adequate mental health treatment within the women’s prison system and that placing McLinn in Larned would endanger the community.

“This is a situation where society is safer with her confinement,” Branson said.

Cornwell said that committing McLinn to Larned would not exactly be a vacation.

“Having been to Larned on numerous occasions, it is a prison,” Cornwell said. “You go through ports and you do not get out.”

Martin said that she was aware that the women’s prison system provides “very good treatment’ and may even have a “better doctor-patient ratio” than Larned. She ordered the mental examination because, she said, the results would only help McLinn’s current treatment providers and it would not rule out the option of sending McLinn to prison.

Retrial denied Cornwell said he asked the court to order a retrial for a number of reasons. First, Cornwell argued that the court erred in allowing jurors to view four autopsy photos of Sasko’s body, including Sasko’s slitopen throat. Martin said showing the photos was justified because they aided the pathologist in explaining the injuries and they “weren’t particularly gruesome,” as they showed the body after the blood had been cleaned off.

Second, Cornwell argued the court erred in not allowing the defense

chambers: 63 in the House; and 21 in the Senate.

On one side, there are conservative Republicans who have taken campaign pledges never to vote for any tax increase.

“Just like there are liberal Democrats who will vote for nothing that maybe even remotely makes the governor look good,” said Sen. Ty Masterson, R-Augusta, who chairs the Senate budget committee. “There are people that are just heckno’s on anything.”

But House Democratic Leader Tom Burroughs of Kansas City said most Democrats have not dug in their heels that far.

Asked what kind of tax package Democrats would support, Burroughs said, “One that’s fair, equitable and sustainable. That’s what we’ve stated from the very beginning and we still feel that way.”

“These small tax increases here and there, the fee increases that we’ve had presented to us throughout the session that have continued to be a stop-gap, a Band-Aid on a major wound, is not doing the job. We have to have a tax plan on the table that will bring longterm sustainability to the state economy.”

EDITORS to argue the mental disease or defect defense during the post-conviction stage when jurors had to decide if the act was committed with one or more aggravating factors. Martin said that banning Cornwell from using the defense during the aggravating factor phase was in accordance with Kansas statute. Martin said Cornwell would have the opportunity to use the mental disease or defect argument with her during sentencing to try to convince Martin that a lesser sentence should be given.

Additionally, Cornwell argued he should have been able to opine on jury instructions that said McLinn would be sent to Larned if found not guilty.

“He was wanting to argue she needed treatment and not to send her to prison,” Martin said.

Martin said that the jury instructions mention that McLinn would be sent to a state mental hospital to ease their minds that she wouldn’t be set free if they found her not guilty by reason of mental defect, not for them to consider the disposition of the case after their verdict.

Finally, Cornwell argued a mistrial should be called because the verdict was contrary to expert testimony at trial after both the defense’s witness, psychologist Marilyn Hutchinson, and the state’s witness, psychiatrist William Logan, agreed McLinn suffered from dissociative identity disorder. However, Martin rejected that argument because Logan testified that he did believe McLinn could have formed intent even with multiple personalities.

McLinn is in the Douglas County Jail without bond until she can be taken for her examination at Larned State Hospital.

After the examination is concluded, she will return to Douglas County and a sentencing date will be scheduled.

Klamm said operators at the city’s two water treatment plants have directions to keep the amount of fluoride slightly below the 0.7-milligram guideline.

Lawrence has added fluoride to its drinking water for decades, as it became part of the public health trend that began in Grand Rapids, Mich., in 1945 when leaders there determined fluoride in the drinking water improved dental health.

The practice, though, has garnered opposition over the years. Opponents argue its health effects aren’t completely understood and that adding it amounts to an unwanted medication.

advocate for water fluoridation as an effective way to improve dental health.

A late Lawrence resident played a prominent role in the fight against water fluoridation. Albert Burgstahler, a Kansas University chemistry professor, served as the longtime editor of the scientific journal Fluoride and became one of the leading opponents of water fluoridation prior to his death in 2013.

The idea of whether Lawrence should stop adding fluoride to its drinking water has come up at Lawrence City Hall sporadically over the years. It last was discussed in 2013 when then-City Commissioner Hugh Carter questioned whether the city was relying on adequate scientific research to support its use of fluoride. City commissioners directed the city auditor to prepare a report on the status of research on fluoridation. The report cited several studies by federally recognized organizations, and city commissioners never took any further action on the fluoride issue.

Men acknowledge ‘inappropriate acts toward the Muslim community’

By Sara Shepherd Twitter: @saramarieshep

A Kansas University fraternity has expelled four members involved with posting a video on social media that appeared to mock Muslims.

The KU chapter of Zeta Beta Tau, a traditionally Jewish fraternity, said in a statement this week that the men were expelled after admitting to “inappropriate acts toward the Muslim community.”

The statement said the members’ actions were individual and do not represent the values of the fraternity.

KANSAS “As brothers of Zeta Beta UNIVERSITY Tau and as an organization dedicated to our founding as the world’s first Jewish Fraternity, we take a strong stance against bigotry and intolerance in all forms,” the statement said. “Zeta Beta Tau has a strict zero-tolerance policy regarding racism, discrimination and prejudice. As such, the chapter took immediate action.”

BRIEFLY KDOT: More Kansans clear that kids who walk and bike to school are more wearing seat belts active,” said Chris Tilden,

The Kansas Department of Transportation says more Kansans are buckling up than ever before.

Transportation Secretary Mike King said in a statement Monday that 86 percent of drivers and front-seat passengers were observed to be wearing seat belts in 2014. That’s up from just 61 percent in 2003.

Although the state beat its target for 2014, its seat belt usage rate remains below the national average of 87 percent. The state ranked 40th in the country for seat belt usage in 2013.

Transportation official Norraine Wingfield says usage is going up the fastest among teens, and passengers tend to buckle up if the driver does first. Kansas Highway Patrol Col. Mark Bruce says the numbers show that the state is moving in the right direction.

A value-added agriculture business is a company that manufactures — not necessarily raises — a product. An example would be a business that converts soybeans into tofu, Miller said.

The abatements have helped the companies — Amarr Garage Doors, Prosoco, Grandstand Glass and Sportswear, and Sunlite Science & Technology — add 330 jobs with an average salary of $37,918 a year.

AIM Dance Company to stage annual Point B Dance Carnival

By Joanna Hlavacek Twitter: @HlavacekJoanna

There’s a lot to see and do at a carnival.

“You go to the batting cages, then you go on a ride, then you get popcorn,” says Cathy Patterson, explaining the idea behind AIM Dance Company’s upcoming Point B Dance Carnival. “A carnival suggests variety.”

Patterson, who owns Lawrence’s Point B dance studio and directs resident company AIM, is staging her seventh Carnival this weekend.

The annual springtime showcase is slated for 7 p.m. Friday and Saturday at the Lawrence Arts Center, 940 New

food bank, says festival committee member Jennifer Letner. Unlike last year, the $10 fee only covers admittance and won’t include a food voucher, which Letner says contributed to the shortage of eats at the festival’s first go-round.

“Now that we know that people are willing to come out, we know there’s a demand,” she says.

Tickets can be purchased online at ksfoodtruckfest.com, at the event or at various locations around town including Just Food, Merchants Pub and Plate, Hy-Vee stores and the Granada Theater.

Credit cards will be accepted at the festival entrance, but customers must pay with cash once inside. There will be four ATMs on site, Letner says.

Here’s a rundown of all 14 trucks at this year’s festival:

The Locals Drasko’s Food Truck Who: Jay Draskovich, a longtime cook at Lawrence’s 715, hit the streets earlier this year with his Asian-inspired take on Kansas City-style barbecue.

On the menu: Pulled pork sliders with Coca Cola-Sriracha barbecue sauce and Asian coleslaw; Korean pulled chicken taco with gingersoy-lime vinaigrette; baby-back ribs; smoked brisket with kimchi. All items come with a side of Draskovich’s signature macaroni and cheese.

SnoFlower Who: Kyle and Lori Bartel operate this seasonal truck, which serves 80 popular combinations and single flavors — including 28 organic varieties — of gourmet shaved ice. The husbandand-wife team carve

Hampshire St. Seven choreographers and a variety of styles — from hip-hop to jazz to musical theater — will be represented over the two nights.

Audiences can expect an “upbeat, fun” performance of California-inspired choreography, says Patterson. They might even recognize a song or two in the lineup, which includes contemporary tunes from Beyonce, Sara Bareilles and Sia. The show’s opening number incorporates music by Postmodern Jukebox, a group of musicians who “take current music and make it like it would have sounded in the past,” says Patterson. For ex-

Torched Goodness Who: Phoenix transplants Eric and Julia Ireland brought their successful crème brulee truck to Lawrence in 2014. The lime-green truck is brought out mostly for special events these days, though you may have noticed its cart cousin parked outside Liberty Hall on recent afternoons.

On the menu: Crème brulee and cold-brew coffee. Aside from the standard flavors (traditional vanilla, sea salt caramel and chocolate), the Irelands also offer a rotating selection of brulee specialties, including the Coconut Strut, the Crème de la Cookie and the S’mores the Merrier — all of which will make an appearance at the festival, Julia says.

The Purple Carrot Who: Formerly known as the Blissful Bite, this vegetarian-friendly truck rebranded itself as The Purple Carrot co-op, says co-owner Jason Hering.

On the menu: Lots of organic and locally sourced dishes, including the popular avocado smoothie (made with avocado, chocolate chips, agave nectar and vanilla almond milk) and the Blissful Burrito. Her-

That varied roster spans from Allie Howland, a senior at Free State High School, to Michelle Stewart, a full-time attorney and mother of two.

Patterson says the group provides an outlet for older folks who may have grown up dancing but wouldn’t otherwise have an outlet for it now that they’re done with school.

“There are all these people at different places in their lives,” Patterson says. “Some have kids, some are married, some are at KU. Dance brings them together.”

noodle with spicy ginger sauce and crunchy veggies will probably make an appearance. Regular bestsellers include macaroni and cheese (it’s got a “spicy twist,” Stoppel says) and chipotle-spiced pork tacos served with chipotle aioli and slaw.

On the menu: Aside from shaved ice, SnoFlower also sells bottled water. “Tiger’s Blood” (a mixture of strawberry and coconut) and “Jayhawker” (cherry and blue raspberry) have emerged as bestsellers since the truck premiered in summer 2014, Kyle says.

It’s hard to pick a favorite, he says, though he favors anything “as long as it has Sno Cream on top.” The dairy topping elevates the frozen treat to something more resembling ice cream, Kyle says.

OFF THE BEATEN PLATE

ing says they’ll make a smaller version of the bestseller (stuffed full of potatoes, black beans, local eggs and greens, truck-made salsa and organic cheddar cheese) for the festival.

Biemer’s BBQ Who: You may be familiar with Jim Biemick’s namesake restaurant — and the ever-revolving meat-themed puns on its signage — at 2120 W. Ninth St. On the menu: Tasty meats between buns (pulled pork is a perennial favorite, Biemick says) plus classic ‘cue sides such as coleslaw, potato salad and beans.

The Outof-Towners CoffeeCakeKC Who: Owned and operated by Michelle Ferguson and Kim Niebaum, this colorful truck serves exactly what its name implies: coffee, baked goods and its popular “coffeecake.”

On the menu: The truck specializes in espresso, which is brewed on-board. Signature drinks include The

STRANGE CHICKEN At a place where you can dine on such Chinese delicacies as “pork blood with innards” and “spicy intestine with tofu,” I have to admit that I was expecting something a little more, well, weird, when I ordered up a plate of Jade Garden’s “Strange Chicken” earlier this week.

The chicken itself — boneless, skinless pieces of white meat — is served with vegetables. Once again, nothing too abnormal there: broccoli, carrots, mushrooms, onions, celery, bell peppers, water chestnuts and bamboo shoots.

The “strangeness,” apparently, is in the sauce, assistant manager Javier Martinez tells me. It’s a little sweet, a little spicy and a little sour, giving the dish an unusual

presented their first Carnival in 2009, the company had “maybe eight people in it.”

These days, “it’s more people, more production numbers, adding lights and media,” Patterson says of the show, which moved from Abe & Jake’s Landing to the Arts Center in its second year and added another performance night in its third year.

AIM now boasts 30 members. They’ll all dance in the Carnival this weekend. The company includes a lot of Kansas University students, Patterson says, while also welcoming “working people in their late 20s and early 30s” back into the dance fold.

Uber drive The announcement that Uber will expand to Lawrence should trigger some additional study and action on how such ride-sharing services should be regulated.

H

aving another public transportation option in Lawrence might be a good thing, but city officials are right to be cautious about the announced entry of the Uber “ride sharing” service into the local market.

The Uber system uses a cellphone application to connect people who need a ride with drivers who use their private vehicles to provide those rides. It’s sort of like a taxi service but is less formal, and at least for now, far less regulated than a taxi service.

Many Uber drivers operate on a sporadic schedule, offering rides only on weekends or certain hours of the day. Cities are struggling to find ways to accommodate the lower-cost service while protecting the safety of riders and the business model of traditional taxi services.

The Kansas Legislature even got into the act, passing legislation that would require drivers to submit to background checks by the Kansas Bureau of Investigation and show they have at least a minimum level of insurance coverage.

Gov. Sam Brownback vetoed the bill in the name of free enterprise, but lawmakers say they will attempt to override that veto during their wrap-up session.

If that legislation becomes law, Lawrence city officials probably won’t have to consider additional regulations to cover Uber or other similar businesses, but, if not, they and officials in other Kansas cities will have to try to figure out where to draw the line. Kansas City, Mo., recently negotiated a deal in which the city agreed to lower its proposed fees for individual drivers and Uber agreed to share driver background check information with the city.

It’s possible to adopt a “buyer beware” attitude toward ventures like Uber and leave it up to riders to choose whether they trust a mostly unregulated service or want to stick with more traditional taxi companies. However, it probably is in the public’s interest to make sure that Uber drivers have been screened to weed out people who may pose a safety threat.

Having basic liability insurance also seems like a reasonable requirement.

Even with such regulations, however, local taxi companies say the playing field wouldn’t be level, unless Uber drivers are required to operate for a minimum number of hours each week.

It would be unfair, they contend, to let Uber drivers drop into the market only during the most profitable times, such as weekends or late at night and not be required to provide rides, as taxi companies are, during less profitable hours.

At this point, Lawrence officials are waiting to see what happens to the state law. If the governor’s veto stands, the city will need to see what other similar communities are doing to accommodate Uber while also enforcing reasonable regulations.

Washington — Lindsey Graham once said his road to Congress ran through a coronary clinic because it involves so many South Carolina barbecues. Today, as a senator, he thinks he sees a path to the Republican presidential nomination. He has many strengths, but two substantial problems.

Two clarifying issues efficiently reveal who actually is conservative and underscore two of Hillary Clinton’s vulnerabilities. They are the U.S. attack on Libya, and her attack on freedom of political speech.

Secretary of State Clinton helped initiate a protracted assassination attempt — eight months of chasing Moammar Gaddafi with fighter-bombers. This exercise in regime change succeeded in decapitating Libya’s government.

It was, however, progressive imperialism, supposedly humanitarian muscularity untainted by any clear and substantial U.S. national interest. Hence its appeal to a liberal administration, which neglected to ask the question conservatives have learned to ask before going abroad in search of monsters to destroy: “But then what?”

Now we know what. Libya is a failed state incubating radical Islamists.

In 2016, when Clinton is asked about her complicity in this calamity, she might say, “What difference at this point does it make?” Graham will be unable to press the point effectively. Eight years after the hard lessons of Iraq, he too supported vi-

“

Graham is a better lawyer than Clinton but not clearly a better friend of the First Amendment.” olent regime change in Libya. His primary regret was that insufficient U.S. force was employed. In a joint statement with John McCain, Graham said “Americans can be proud of the role our country” played, except for “the failure of the United States to employ the full weight of our air power.”

Graham did urge taking responsibility for the aftermath: “Let’s get on the ground and help the Libyan people establish a democracy.” Democracy’s prerequisites were, however, as lacking there as they were in Iraq, where we should have learned the perils of “nationbuilding,” and how discordant that project is with all conservative precepts.

Clinton promises to vastly expand the power of the political class to regulate campaign speech about itself, “even if that takes a constitutional amendment.” Graham is a better lawyer than Clinton

but not clearly a better friend of the First Amendment. He knows it would be necessary to amend this Amendment in order to overturn the Supreme Court’s 2010 Citizens United decision, which he, like she, dislikes.

Citizens United upheld the right of corporations (in practice, almost entirely incorporated nonprofit advocacy groups) and unions to unlimited spending for issue advocacy independent of candidates’ campaigns. The court simply reasoned that Americans do not forfeit their First Amendment rights when they join together to magnify their political speech.

Clinton’s aspiration to make the Bill of Rights less restraining on government and less protective of individuals would be accomplished by empowering Congress to legislate what it considers reasonable restrictions on contributions to finance the dissemination of political speech. The Washington Post reports that in New Hampshire recently Graham “called for a constitutional amendment to overturn Citizens United.”

Challenged about this, he says he might consider instead undoing the damage he, his friend McCain and other “reformers” have done.

Removing limits on contributions to parties (with immediate disclosure on the Internet) would divert the flow of money from super PACs back to the parties, where it once went. Parties should then be able to make unlimited expenditures for,

and coordinate with, their candidates, which present law severely restricts. This would make parties more robust and accountable, and campaign political financing more transparent.

Super PACs, which Graham regrets as strongly as he needs and desires the backing of one, have been summoned into existence by limits on contributions to candidates and parties. These limits have diverted money into the super PACs that must not “coordinate” with candidates.

The infancy of super PACs is, Graham says, over. “They are full-blown teenagers” who in this cycle could, he thinks, produce a brokered nominating convention. A super PAC devoted to helping a particular candidate can “create viability beyond winning.” Usually, he says, candidacies are ended by a scarcity of money or a surfeit of embarrassment, or both.

Suppose, however, that super PACs enable, say, five 2016 candidates to survive until July, losing often but winning here and there, particularly in states that allocate their delegates not winner-take-all but proportionally. Suppose the five reach the convention with a combined total of delegates larger than the 1,236 (this might change) needed for a nominating majority. What fun.

To reach a rendezvous with Clinton in the autumn of 2016, Graham must play by the rules we have. Win or lose, he is too intelligent to join her in proposing slapdash constitutional vandalism.

Racial injustice: What can we do?

“There comes a time when people get tired.”

— Martin Luther King, Jr., Dec. 5, 1955 Tracy is tired. She was tired even before Baltimore burned this week.

I received an email from her on April 12. She wanted me to know she is a 55-year-old white lady from Austin, Texas, who is tired unto tears by incident after incident of police violence against unarmed African-American men — including a 2013 shooting in her own hometown. “What can be done?” she asked. “What

“

As Martin Luther King noted after young people in Memphis broke windows and looted stores during the last march he ever led, violence has a way of changing the subject.”

can I do? I’m sincere in this question. I want to DO something. What can that be? I’m embarrassed to have to ask; I feel like I should KNOW what to do, but I don’t.”

There comes a time when people get tired. And then what?

In Baltimore, the answer some people gave was to break windows, smash cars, set fires and loot stores. In so doing, they gave aid and comfort to every enemy of justice who would just as soon not look too closely at what happened in that city.

Meaning, of course, the death of Freddie Gray, a 25-year-old African-American man who mysteriously suffered fatal injuries — on April 12, no less — while in police custody.

As Martin Luther King

noted after young people in Memphis broke windows and looted stores during the last march he ever led, violence has a way of changing the subject. He lamented that he was now forced to talk about the vandalism rather than the exploitation of dirt-poor working men that had brought him to Memphis in the first place.

Similarly, we are now required to take time out from demanding justice for Freddie Gray to discuss the sacking and looting of Baltimore and to say the obvious: The road to better policing does not go through a burned out CVS pharmacy. So the rioting — whether motivated by genuine anger or craven opportunism — was not just thuggish, short-sighted and self-defeating. It was also tactically stupid, ceding the moral high ground and giving media, politicians and pundits permission to ignore the very real issues here.

Not that they ever need much of an excuse, particularly over at Fox “News” and other citadels of conservative denialism. Indeed, on Monday night even as Baltimore burned, Fox’s Lou Dobbs was, predictably enough, blaming the violence on President Barack Obama.

Apparently, the death of Gray, whose spine was partially severed in some still unexplained way, had nothing to do with it. Repeated

incidents of police violence against men and boys who somehow always happen to be black and unarmed, had nothing to do with it. No, it was Obama’s fault.

Amazing.

It has reached a point where you can’t keep the atrocities straight without a score card. Besides Gray, we’ve got Eric Harris, an unarmed black man shot in Tulsa, Okla., who cried that he was losing his breath, to which a cop responded “F--your breath.” We’ve got Levar Jones, a black man shot by a state trooper in South Carolina while complying with the trooper’s commands.

We’ve got Oscar Grant, Sean Bell, Eric Garner. We’ve got video of a black man named Walter Scott, wanted for a traffic violation and back child support, running from a police officer and being shot to death. We’ve got video of a white man named Michael Wilcox, wanted for murder, running toward a police officer, threatening him, daring him to shoot, refusing to remove his hands from his pockets, yet somehow not being shot.

We’ve got all this plus statistical proof. Yet the same people who cry “War on Christmas!” every time some city hall in Podunk erects a menorah on the lawn can discern no racial disparity in police violence against unarmed men.

So if there comes a time when people get tired, who can blame them?

Reading Tracy’s email I was reminded of how a white college student once confronted Malcolm X at a Harlem restaurant and asked him the same question. Tracy did: What can I do? To which Malcolm replied: “Nothing.” I’ve always thought she deserved better than he gave her. After all, the fight for human rights is not a black thing. Human rights are a human thing.

Here, then, begins a series of columns — “What Can I Do?” — aimed at finding answers to Tracy’s question.

It will be open-ended and run irregularly. I will be interviewing people who can provide Tracy — and by extension, the rest of us — concrete strategies for making change. Some of those I talk to, you will likely know; some may be new to you.

If you have a serious answer for Tracy — or think there’s someone I should talk to — send me an email: lpitts@miamiherald.com.

Maybe I’ll write about it. Put “What Can I Do?” in the subject line. Keep it short — 1,000 word treatises will go unread.

Tracy asked something we all should be asking. Assuming the news does not intervene, our search for answers begins with my next column.

The last political party he joined was the Liberty Union Party a generation ago to oppose the Vietnam War. But Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, who told USA TODAY he would announce today his campaign to seek the 2016 Democratic presidential nomination, poses some significant political perils for Hillary Clinton — even though she’s in such a strong position to win the nomination that “front-runner” doesn’t quite do justice to the dominance of her standing.

Murders in Mexico show sharp decline Alan Gomez USA TODAY

Murders in Mexico fell for a third straight year in 2014 — the most pronounced declines occurring along the U.S. border — a sign the country is slowly stabilizing after gruesome drug wars.

The 15,649 murders were 13.8% less than in 2013 and down from a peak of 22,480 in 2011, according to a report to be released today by the University of San Diego’s Justice in Mexico Project.

Five of the six Mexican states that border the USA reported a

combined drop of 17.7% in the number of homicides.

“These data really help to underscore that we’re talking about a sea change in violence,” said David Shirk, co-author of the report and director of the Justice in Mexico Project, a U.S. initiative to protect human rights south of the border. “You still have elevated levels of crime, so we still have a long way to go,” he added.

Maureen Meyer, senior associate for Mexico at the Washington Office on Latin America, said Mexicans still face extremely high levels of kidnappings, extortion and other violent crimes.

The U.S. State Department said in a warning April 13 that U.S. travelers continue to be victims

Steepest drops occur along the U.S. border of carjackings, robberies and other violence.

Meyer said the reduction in murders is an encouraging trend that allows Mexican officials to cement improvements in the judicial system, anti-corruption programs and police practices.

Mexico faced a nationwide drug war after then-president Felipe Calderón announced in late 2006 a crackdown on drug cartels. The United States has sent $2.3 billion since 2008 to train police and buy new aircraft, scanners, X-ray machines and nearly 400 canines that can detect drugs, weapons and explosives.

Calderón’s government captured or killed cartel leaders, but violence exploded as lower-level cartel members fought to fill the vacuum. At least 138,000 murders have occurred in Mexico since the start of the anti-cartel campaign, the report said.

A disappointing GDP report and non-committal Federal Reserve statement sent ripples through the financial markets Wednesday as investors tried to make sense of an unexpectedly sluggish economy.

Both reports were a body blow to investors betting on stronger growth in the U.S. and Europe, as well as higher interest rates and a stronger dollar. The sluggish U.S. economy sent the dollar lower on international currency markets — and the euro to an eight-week high of $1.127.

A stronger euro means goods made in Europe are more expensive abroad — and that sent European stocks plunging. Germany’s DAX 30 index fell 3.2% Wednesday, its worst performance since February 2011.

U.S. stocks reacted badly as well. The Standard and Poor’s 500 stock index closed down 7.9 points, or 0.37% Wednesday. It had fallen as many as 17.35 points, or 0.82%, in afternoon trading.

Consumer discretionary stocks — stocks that profit when consumers are feeling prosperous — fell 0.91%, according to FactSet. Gold, widely seen as an inflation hedge, fell $9.70 an ounce to $1,204.20, or 0.8%. The danger of inflation falls when the economy sags. The GDP report contains the Fed’s favorite measure of inflation, the price index for personal consumption expenditures.

It fell at a 2% annual rate.

The puzzler: The yield on the 10-year Treasury note rose to 2.04%. Bond yields usually rise when inflation is in the air. But that’s not the picture painted by either release Wednesday.

ELECTION 2016

Sanders is ‘running ... to win’ Fiery independent says he has a shot, — though it’s long Erin Kelly USA TODAY

Bernie Sanders knows he faces an uphill battle against Hillary Clinton for the Democratic presidential nomination, but he believes he can win by reaching out to overworked, underpaid Americans anxious for change.

“I’ve been traveling around the country for the last year trying to ascertain whether there really is grass-roots support in terms of people standing up and being prepared to take on the billionaire class,” the independent senator said in an interview Wednesday with USA TODAY as he prepared to officially announce his candidacy Thursday.

“I believe that there is.”

“There’s no doubt Sen. Sanders will force a spirited discussion within the Democrat Party on the issues.”

RNC press secretary Allison Moore

ter said Americans are disenchanted with “the greed of corporate America” and with a political establishment that doesn’t talk about the issues that affect their lives.

“I believe they want a fundamental change so that government works for ordinary Americans and not just billionaires,” said Sanders, who is known for his tousled white hair and Brooklyn accent.

Acknowledging that former secretary of State Clinton will be a formidable fundraiser, Sanders says he can compete by attracting small contributions from millions of Americans and mobilizing young people and other volunteers to help him wage a nationwide campaign.

“I am running in this election to win,” he said. “We’ve got a long path forward. Most people in America have never heard of Bernie Sanders. More than 90% of Americans have heard of Hillary Clinton. ... I will absolutely be out-spent. But I do believe we have a chance to raise significant amounts of money through small, individual contributions.”

speaking fees from Wall Street interests for her campaigns, the Clinton Foundation and herself.

On Social Security, Sanders in an op-ed article in The Des Moines Register Wednesday called for raising payroll and investment taxes on the affluent to finance an increase in benefits for the elderly.

Then there’s Clinton’s vote in 2002 to authorize the Iraq War, which provided a critical opening for Barack Obama’s challenge in 2008. Sanders, then a House member, voted against the authorization. Given the continued turmoil in Iraq more than a decade later, it’s no favor to Clinton to be reminded of her early support of the war there.

Sanders is the first challenger to Clinton but is unlikely the last. Former Maryland governor Martin O’Malley, former Virginia senator Jim Webb and former Rhode Island governor Lincoln Chafee are weighing runs.

All that said, even Sanders’ top strategist doesn’t sound opsaid. He won that election with 71% of the vote.

Sanders said it is up to Democratic voters — not him — to say whether he is a better candidate than Clinton, whom he did not criticize at all during the interview.

“We’ll let the American people make that decision,” he said.

“Having a serious debate about issues that affect working families is important for the Democratic

“But going back to Lyndon Johnson, you can change the calculus of an election if you fit the times,” he adds. The longParty and the United States of America. Debate is a good thing.”

Sanders’ record is considerably more liberal than Clinton’s. He voted against the Iraq War while Clinton voted for it as a senator from New York.

He is strongly opposed to bipartisan legislation to give the president sweeping authority to negotiate free-trade deals, which he believes will cost some Americans their jobs. Clinton has

“Can you come forward and resonate with people?”

Sanders aims to raise $50 million in small, online contributions to finance campaigns in Iowa, New Hampshire, Nevada and South Carolina, and to get on the ballot in succeeding states, Devine says. If he does well in early contests, the theory goes, that will spark a flood of contributions to continue. A PPP Poll of Iowa Democrats released Tuesday had Clinton at 62%, Sanders in second at 14%.

Veteran Democratic pollster Mark Mellman is skeptical about the prospects against Clinton, whom he notes is in a much stronger position than she was in 2008.

An unmanned Russian spacecraft loaded with supplies for the International Space Station is spinning out of control and is expected to plunge into the Earth’s atmosphere next week, the Russian space agency said Wednesday, according to the local media.

The Progress spacecraft, carrying food, fuel, oxygen and scientific equipment, was launched Tuesday but ran into immediate trouble, ending up in the wrong orbit in an uncontrolled spin, the TASS news agency reported.

The space agency failed repeatedly in attempts to communicate with the Progress.

— Doug Stanglin VA REPORTS INCLUDE CASES OF HARM, DEATH TO VETS

Almost 140 investigative reports newly released by the inspector general at the Veterans Affairs Department offer a litany of instances of dysfunction or mistreatment of veterans at VA facilities across the country, and they show that in many cases the department’s chief watchdog trusted the VA to correct problems on its own rather than make findings public.

The cases range from missed diagnoses to failures during surgery — one veteran’s face was set

den to corporate interests. But he said that running for president as an independent was just not feasible.

“It would require an enormous amount of time, energy and money just to get on the ballot in 50 states,” he said. “That’s just the way it is. It made a lot more sense for me to work within the Democratic primary system where it’s much easier to get on the ballot and have a chance to debate the other candidates.”

Sanders will force Clinton to engage in a real primary debate, said a spokeswoman for the Republican National Committee.

“There’s no doubt Sen. Sanders will force a spirited discussion within the Democrat Party on the issues, something Hillary Clinton has sought to avoid in her pursuit of a coronation,” said RNC press secretary Allison Moore.

Democratic National Committee spokeswoman Holly Shulman said Democrats “expect a competitive primary for the Democratic nomination.”

Sanders will bring populism to the Democratic primary, said a spokesman for the Progressive Change Campaign Committee.

“The goal of many progressives in 2016 is to ensure that the election is fought over big, bold, economic populist ideas like expanding Social Security benefits, a national goal of debt-free college, Wall Street reform, public financing of campaigns and creating millions of clean-energy jobs,” said Adam Green, the group’s cofounder. “Bernie Sanders will certainly help pull the debate in that direction.”

Some progressive groups said they are still hoping for Sen. Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts to seek the Democratic nomination. Warren has said she does not intend to run for president.

“Bernie is a fantastic leader who has a huge track record in fighting against income inequality,” said Charles Chamberlain, executive director of Democracy for America, the Vermont-based progressive group that grew out of Howard Dean’s 2004 run for president. “He is a needed voice in the primary. We’re excited he’s running.”

Still, Chamberlain said, DFA will continue to try to draft Warren into the race.

“Our members believe that Elizabeth Warren is the champion of our time,” Chamberlain said.

Sanders said he knows he’s an underdog. But he points to his upset victories to become mayor of Burlington, Vt., in 1981, to beat an incumbent congressman in 1990, and to fend off one of the wealthiest businessmen in Vermont to win his first Senate race in 2006.

“It probably would not be a good idea for people to underestimate me,” he said.

Defense attorneys for Boston Marathon bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev continued their quest to depict a troubled Tsarnaev family Wednesday, recalling witness Sam Lipson, whose mother rented a three-bedroom Cambridge, Mass., apartment to the Tsarnaevs for more than a decade.

Lipson, who was on the stand Tuesday when court recessed for the day, had testified that he first met Dzhokhar when he was 8. He described him as “a very sweet kid,” skinny and a little shy.

He went on to describe transformations he saw in other members of the family between 2002 and 2012. Older brother Tamerlan had been “charismatic” and “gregarious” at first but became “withdrawn” and avoided making eye contact in the hallway, he said.

Tsarnaev was convicted April 8 on 30 counts related to the attacks of April 2013, the murder of MIT police officer Sean Collier and a shootout in Watertown, Mass., during a manhunt for the two brothers. The same jurors who convicted him are hearing testimony in the penalty phase of the trial as they prepare to deliver life in prison with no possibility of parole or the death penalty.

NATION/WORLD CONGRESS

Japan’s PM offers WWII apology Abe generally avoids acknowledging abuse Oren Dorell USA TODAY

WASHINGTON In the first address to a joint session of Congress by a Japanese leader, Prime Minister Shinzo Abe on Wednesday stood by previous leaders’ apologies for his nation’s World War II abuses.

He also expressed “eternal condolences” for the American lives lost fighting Japan in the war, contrite statements that set to rest a pre-speech flap over whether he would avoid acknowledging Japan’s wartime atrocities.

“On behalf of Japan and the Japanese people, I offer with profound respect my eternal condo-

lences to the souls of all American people that were lost during World War II,” he said.

Abe (AH-beh) received repeated standing ovations by members of Congress. Watching from the gallery was Caroline Kennedy, the U.S. ambassador to Japan.

“Our actions brought suffering to the peoples in Asian countries,” Abe said, speaking in English. “We must not avert our eyes from that. I will uphold the views expressed by the previous prime ministers in this regard.”

The Japanese leader, however, did not personally apologize for Japan’s atrocities toward its Asian neighbors.

“History is harsh. What’s done cannot be undone,” Abe said.

His stance has damaged relations with major trade partner China, which suffered under Jap-

anese occupation, and with South Korea, a U.S. ally that would be a natural security partner of Japan against an increasingly assertive China. Leaders in both countries have refused oneon-one summit meetings with Abe. Moving past the apologies, Abe said Wednesday the task now is economic cooperation.

“We must all the more contribute in every respect to the development of Asia,” Abe said.

“We must spare no effort in working for the peace and prosperity of the region.”

A 12-nation Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) trade pact nearing completion that both Abe and Obama support faces opposition in the USA and Japan. Both leaders say it would boost exports and create jobs.

BALTIMORE UNREST

SUPREME COURT

Fundraising bans are OK for judicial candidates Chief justice joins 4 liberals in decision Richard Wolf USA TODAY

A Supreme Court that has given the green light to unlimited spending in political campaigns ruled Wednesday that judicial candidates don’t have the same right to solicit donations as other politicians.

The justices ruled 5-4 that Florida’s judicial code of conduct can ban candidates from asking for money. As a result, in 30 states that elect state and local judges, restrictions on fundraising by judicial candidates can remain in place.

Chief Justice John Roberts was joined by the four liberal justices in an unusual alignment against the other four conservatives.

“Judges are not politicians, even when they come to the bench by way of the ballot,” he said.

While he acknowledged that Florida’s code allows a judicial candidate’s political committee to solicit funds and even lets the candidates thank donors, Roberts said directly asking for money is likely to harm the public’s confidence in an independent judiciary. “The identity of the person asking for money matters, as anyone who has encountered a Girl Scout selling cookies outside a grocery store can attest,” he said.

The court’s other conservatives dissented in three separate opinions. Justices Antonin Scalia and Clarence Thomas said Florida’s restriction was too broad.

“One cannot have judicial elections without judicial campaigns, and judicial campaigns without funds for campaigning, and funds for campaigning without asking for them,” Scalia wrote.

The decision went against Lanell Williams-Yulee, a losing county court candidate who ran afoul of the Florida Bar’s canon of ethics in 2009 and was assessed $1,860.30 in court costs for signing a fundraising letter.

Protests grow 2 days ahead of investigation’s findings Residents mass at City Hall; New York draws hundreds

“We are asking that they remain peaceful.”

BALTIMORE Thousands massed outside City Hall on Wednesday in protest over the death of a man injured in police custody, and the outrage spread to New York City where another large throng gathered in Union Square.

The demonstrations in the two cities saw droves of chanting protesters lining city blocks. The crowds waved signs seeking justice for Freddie Gray, whose death triggered protests that led to violence, burning and looting Monday in Baltimore and provoked a week-long emergency nighttime curfew.

Baltimore Police Commissioner Anthony Batts said 18 people were arrested by 8 p.m. Wednesday, including two juveniles. Police in New York arrested more than a dozen people.

“We are asking that they remain peaceful,” Baltimore police

Capt. Eric Kowalczyk said.

Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan said he was “very encouraged” by the relative calm. About 2,000 National Guard troops and more than 1,000 law enforcement officers were on hand to maintain order. “We’re not out of the woods yet,” Hogan said.

There were still small crowds in the streets of Baltimore as the curfew took effect a second night.

The Washington Post reported that it obtained a police document saying that Gray was “banging against walls” inside the police wagon after his arrest, a period when Baltimore police officials contend he must have sustained his fatal spinal injury this month. A prisoner in the van with Gray told investigators he believed Gray “was intentionally trying to injure himself,” according to the document.

The prisoner was separated from Gray by a metal partition and could not see him, the Post reported. His statement was contained in an application for a search warrant, sealed by the

court but obtained by the newspaper under the condition that the prisoner not be named.

In New York, several hundred people gathered at Union Square chanting, “No justice, no peace” and “Hands up, don’t shoot.”

Ten days of protests have focused national attention on the death of Gray, 25, a black man who died April 19, a week after he suffered a spinal injury while in police custody. Tension exploded into violence Monday, when clashes between police and demonstrators resulted in injuries to at least 20 officers and the arrest of more than 200 protesters.

On Friday, police investigators are to turn over their findings to prosecutors. Six officers have been suspended with pay, pending the investigation. Cheryl Stewart, spokeswoman for Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake, said the findings will not be made public anytime soon.

Students from Baltimore colleges and high schools march in protest Wednesday, chanting, “Justice for Freddie Gray” on their way to City Hall.

Baltimore remains on edge in the wake of Gray’s death.

Clinton: Police body cameras are a tool of justice “Not only as a mother and grandmother but as a human being and a citizen, my heart breaks for these young men.”

Martha T. Moore @USATMoore USA TODAY

Calling deaths of black men at police hands an “unmistakable and undeniable” pattern of tragedy, Hillary Clinton said “something is profoundly wrong” because police disproportionately stop and search AfricanAmerican men.

Clinton said all police departments should equip officers with body cameras. “That will improve transparency and accountability and it will help protect good people on both sides of the lens,” she NEW YORK

said. “For every tragedy caught on tape, there are surely many more” that now go unrecorded.

Clinton’s talk Wednesday at Columbia University was her most extensive policy discussion since beginning her presidential campaign this month.

Clinton cited the deaths of Walter Scott in North Charleston, S.C., Tamir Rice in Cleveland, Er-

ic Garner in New York and Freddie Gray in Baltimore, where riots erupted on the day of his funeral. “Not only as a mother and grandmother but as a human being and a citizen, my heart breaks for these young men,” she said.

She urged prayer for Baltimore and “all the men whose names we know, and those we don’t, who have lost their lives unnecessarily and tragically.”

Clinton also called for alternatives to “mass incarceration,” including more and better mental health treatment and changes to probation and drug diversion programs: for offenders. “Keeping them in prison does little to re-

duce crime, but it does a lot to tear apart families,” she said.

Efforts to reduce the number of Americans in prison have gained bipartisan support, including from at least one Republican presidential candidate, Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul.

For Clinton, criticizing the incarceration rate and police tactics is tricky: It means acknowledging that a signature achievement of her husband’s administration — the 1994 crime bill that paid for 10,000 police officers, built more prisons and increased the number of federal crimes — contributed to the explosion in the prison population.

“Maybe my great-grandparents were pirates,” Mike Lopez said.

His sister found a box in their grandfather’s attic in Tampa a few weeks ago while doing some spring cleaning. Inside was a tattered map of the Hillsborough River, century-old coins, a family picture and a hand wearing a ring.

When Maria and Mike Lopez were children, their grandfather would tell them stories about his father, Ernesto Lopez, finding José Gaspar’s pirate treasure. They took the box to a few antique stores around Tampa and the contents were described as “gruesome and authentic.”

The disclosure would apply to all companies other than foreign private issuers, registered investment firms and emerging growth firms. Small firms would be covered by scaled-down disclosure requirements.

GDP growth was substantially less than expected Paul Davidson USA TODAY

The economy slowed significantly in the first quarter as cold weather, a strong dollar and shipping snags dampened activity, raising questions about the strength of an expected rebound in the remainder of 2015.

Gross domestic product — the value of goods and services produced in the U.S. — expanded at a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 0.2% in the January-March period, the Commerce Department said Wednesday. That’s down from 2.2% in the fourth quarter.

The report was the government’s first estimate of firstquarter GDP. Two revised estimates will be published in May and June based on more complete data.

First-quarter growth was substantially less than the 1% expected by economists surveyed

by Action Economics.

Analysts say the slowdown largely reflects temporary factors, such as harsh winter weather and a labor dispute at West Coast ports that delayed deliveries to factories and retailers.

Other economic headwinds could linger, including a strong dollar that’s making U.S. goods more expensive for foreign buyers and a pullback in energy

U.S. ECONOMY GREW AN ANEMIC 0.2% company investment amid a plunge in oil prices.

“The slowdown in growth was a little greater than expected and it raises the question whether this was just a normal first-quarter pause or a real slowing in activity,” economist Joel Naroff of Naroff Economic Advisors wrote in a note to clients.

Business investment, for example, fell 3.4% after increasing 4.4% in the previous quarter as the muscular greenback dented manufacturers’ sales. Spending on non-residential structures plunged 23.1%, in large part a consequence of the oil price slump, as energy companies sharply reduced the number of oil drilling rigs. And equipment outlays, a closely watched measure of capital spending, rose just 0.1%.

Exports dropped 7.2% as manufacturers lost sales to other countries with more favorable currency exchange rates. That compares with a 4.5% increase last quarter.

Consumer spending, which makes up more than two-thirds of economic activity, also stum-

“The slowdown ... raises the question whether this was just a normal first-quarter pause or a real slowing in activity.”

Economist Joel Naroff of Naroff Economic Advisors

bled, growing 1.9% down from 4.4% in the fourth quarter.

Rough weather kept many shoppers at home.

And government spending declined 0.8%, with defense and state and local outlays all falling.

Jim O’Sullivan, chief U.S. economist of High Frequency Economics, expects a healthy rebound in the current quarter as mild weather and still-low gas prices coax consumers to malls and highways. Encouraging retail sales in March already have hinted at an upturn. O’Sullivan says such catch-up effects should spur 4% growth in the current quarter.

But Doug Handler, chief U.S.

economist of IHS Global Insight, says oil rig counts likely have continued to drop in the current quarter. And surprisingly strong business stockpiling last quarter will likely mean a sharp downturn in coming months.

“The anticipated second-quarter rebound will still occur, but it will be far more muted than originally anticipated,” Handler wrote in a note to clients.

Also expected to persist are the negative effects of the strong dollar on exports, says economist Michael Gapen of Barclays Capital.

He expects the economy to grow 2.6% this year, in line with last year’s showing but short of the 3%-plus pace that many economists predicted several months ago in anticipation of a breakout year in a generally sluggish six-year-old recovery.

Bernard Baumohl, chief global economist of the Economic Outlook Group, has a far more upbeat view. He notes that U.S. payrolls jumped by 591,000 the first three months of the year, up from 579,000 in the same period in 2014, and low inflation has boosted consumer purchasing power despite modest wage gains.

Baumohl, meanwhile, sees the housing market as a potential B12 shot for the economy. The National Association of Realtors, he notes, recently announced that pending home sales soared to a 22-month high in March.

“The first quarter is over. The factors that led to its anemic performance are now history,” Baumohl says.

Salesforce.com booms on report of takeover Deal would be biggest ever for software firm Jessica Guynn USA TODAY

Shares of Salesforce.com soared to a record high on a report that the cloud-computing company has hired financial advisers to field takeover inquiries.

“The space is set to be consolidated, and I think the street has been waiting for the game-changer acquisition,” said FBR Capital Markets analyst Daniel Ives.

Wall Street may long for this kind of mega acquisition, but analysts remain skeptical because of the massive price tag.

Salesforce.com is up 26% for the year and 47% in the past 12 months. The company has a market value of nearly $50 billion, said S&P Capital IQ analyst Scott Kessler. That would make a takeover the largest ever of a software company. “It would definitely be pretty significant,” Kessler said.

“Obviously, at that size, there are

Salesforce.com, led by chief executive Marc Benioff, has a market value of nearly $50 billion.

only a handful of companies that could presumably do something along those lines.”

That prompted speculation that Oracle, Microsoft or SAP could be among the companies vying for Salesforce.com.

That would represent an aggressive push into cloud computing for these giants. Each already has its own customer relationship management software, but they lag behind Salesforce.com in market share, according to research firm Gartner.

UBS analyst Brent Thill says there is a “low likelihood” of a deal at this scale. And, Thill added, there’s little incentive for Salesforce.com to sell. “Usually when you sell, you have run out of runway,” he said. “They haven’t run out of runway.”

Trading was briefly halted in Salesforce.com CRM because of stock volatility. Salesforce.com declined to comment.

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

The Federal Reserve keeps saying that it won’t move to hike interest rates until inflation moves up to its 2% mandate and the job market and economy bounce back from soft spots. In short, the Fed’s timetable for the first interest hike — dubbed the “liftoff date” by Wall Street — is still, um, a data-dependent exercise.

That means even the most obscure economic data points will get as much scrutiny as Yankees slugger Alex Rodriguez does every time he talks into a reporter’s microphone.

Q: Is Buffalo Wild Wings worth a dip?

Matt Krantz

mkrantz@usatoday.com USA TODAY

A: Buffalo Wild Wings has been a hot stock, but it cooled investors off with its latest earnings. Brave investors, though, still see value there.

The company, which operates a sports bar and restaurant concept across the country, reported 2% higher adjusted quarterly profit of $1.52 a share.

Analysts were looking for more, and the company missed by nearly 7%.

Shares were dealt with harshly Wednesday, pushed down roughly 13%, or $23.45, to $160.25.

The chain reported a number of items that worried investors. Its revenue of $440 million for the quarter wound up coming in 3% below what Wall Street expected. But costs are also an issue as the company said the price per pound of wings rose 41% from the same period a year ago. Labor costs also rose.

In any case, analysts say this is a winning stock that investors should stick with. Adjusted earnings per share are expected to jump nearly 19% this year to $5.87 a share. That kind of growth is difficult to find in this current market. And that kind of growth is needed to justify the stock’s 37 P-E, based on earnings the past 12 months.

Analysts think this stock could be worth $195.11 a share in 18 months. If they’re right, that’s 22% upside from Wednesday’s close.

Weight Watchers founder Jean Nidetch dies at 91 about food. It cannot be the highlight of your life,” she said.

The colorful housewife from Little Neck, N.Y., who started her own weight-loss company in 1963, died Wednesday in Florida, her son David said. She was 91.

No cause was given.

Nidetch, who weighed more than 200 pounds and slimmed down to 142, told USA TODAY in 2010 that she couldn’t have imagined that her weight-loss experience would lead to a successful international company. Known for its weekly programs and sensible healthy eating plans, Weight Watchers has helped millions

Over the years, Nidetch tried many fad diets, she told USA TODAY. In 1962, she weighed 214 when she was finally motivated to get serious about losing weight after a chance encounter in the supermarket when a neighbor asked her when she was due. Nidetch wasn’t pregnant.

She decided to try a diet program run by the New York City Board of Health in Manhattan and lost 20 pounds in 10 weeks.

She decided to invite some overweight friends over to tell them about the diet. “When you give of

On May 15, 1963, she officially opened Weight Watchers above a movie theater in Little Neck, N.J. The business grew, franchises were opened, a cookbook sold millions, and by 1968 the company went public. In 1978, the company was sold to the H.J. Heinz Co. She continued to consult for it for years afterward, jetting around the world, encouraging people to lose weight.

Even at a retirement home in Parkland, Fla., she offered encouragement, telling people, “If you want to lose weight ... you will. It’s that simple.”

See You Again Wiz Khalifa featuring Charlie Puth

Joss Whedon wanted someone idiosyncratic, funny, engaged and enthused to give life to his robotic villain in Avengers: Age of Ultron.

In other words, he wanted James Spader.

Through a motion-capture performance and snarling vocals more apt for a petulant teenager than a towering killing machine, The Blacklist star plays the formidable Ultron in the superhero sequel (in theaters Friday) written and directed by Whedon.

Invented by Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.) as part of a global protection initiative, Ultron evolves quickly from benevolent artificial intelligence to evil robot whose “mission of peace” involves wiping out the Avengers — especially his “father” in the Iron Man suit — as well as pretty much all mankind.

The strings are off of this Pinocchio with major daddy issues.

“Ultron would be a great challenge for Freud,” Spader says, laughing.

“The moment he takes his first steps, he’s come to the conclusion that his revelation of how to fix what he perceives as the world’s problems is to start over again with a new, more evolved and developed species.”

Whedon wanted Ultron to look like a robot but sound like a human, and the metal bad guy gets a lot of the movie’s best Whedonesque lines. At the same time, though, the filmmaker liked that Spader could also take his voice to a terrifying place.

“I wanted him to be the antilogical robot. That he was always marching to the beat of his own completely insane drummer,” Whedon says.

“He has enormous twisted personal issues that he doesn’t understand at all. That combination, it’s a deadly brew.”

Ultron evolves his metal body through the film, and Spader in turn evolved his vocal performance, using rhythms and cadences to reflect Ultron’s volatile personality. “He’ll go from humor to danger to childishness very, very quickly.”

Spader immersed himself in the nuances of performance-capture technology, wearing a special

bodysuit and helmet with headlights, with special-effects markers all over his body.

He would work out Ultron’s gestures, postures and expressions on a London stage before taking them to the set opposite his fellow Avengers actors.

“I’d be able to see (my movements) in real time,” Spader says. “I was able to figure out not only what felt right for him but also what looked right and what sounded right.”

Plus, he donned restrictors on his arms and weights on different parts of his body to develop Ultron’s “little idiosyncratic tics,” says executive producer Jeremy Latcham.

Spader says he tried as many different variations as he could to give animators “an enormous amount of material to play with when trying to turn a 55-year-

Joseph Fiennes appears fully Roman in Risen.

But there’s a lot of director Roman Polanski in him, too, the British actor says.

His Roman military tribune offers a new perspective on the Bible’s Resurrection story by taking after Polanski’s famed Chinatown detective Jake Gittes.

“Risen is an incredible noir detective tale. That appealed to me,” Fiennes says. (The movie is out Jan. 22). “It’s a Polanski landscape of a man being sucked into the narrative.”

Fiennes, 44, star of 1998’s best picture-winning Shakespeare in Love, is the fictional Clavius, who is assigned by Pontius Pilate (Pe-

Clavius (Joseph Fiennes) fights off the enemies of Rome, even as he is tasked with solving the mystery of the Resurrection. ter Firth) to unravel the mystery of what happened to Jesus in the weeks after his crucifixion.

With his aide Lucius (Tom Felton), Clavius is tasked to dispel rumors of a risen Messiah. When Jesus’ body disappears from a sealed tomb, Clavius interrogates his followers.

“That’s where the detective work comes in,” Fiennes says. “It takes us on this journey through the eyes of a non-believer.”

Producer Mickey Liddell worked for 10 years to bring the story to the big screen before Kevin Reynolds (Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves) took over

directing and rewrote the screenplay with Paul Aiello. Much of Risen focuses on the enigma, along with battle scenes between Romans and their zealot foes.

The elusive Jesus (Cliff Curtis) is seen only in glimpses. “The few times you do see him, you realize you have been waiting for that the whole movie,” Liddell says.

Temperatures on location in Malta soared above 100 degrees for scenes in armor. “It’s going to be a long time before I strap on sandals again,” Fiennes says.

Ultimately, he says, the tale is compelling enough to attract an audience that goes beyond faithbased moviegoers.

“This is pure cinema,” Fiennes says. “I am foremost a lover of stories. The Bible features the most beautiful stories ever written or handed down.”

Diallo’s progress draws applause

Cheick Diallo joined New York Team SCAN’s AAU basketball program in the spring of 2012 as a skinny, 6-foot-7, 15-year-old eager to learn all about a sport he started playing at his dad’s suggestion in the winter of 2010 in Mali.

“He was raw and full of energy,” Team SCAN director Terrence “Munch” Williams said of Diallo, a former youth soccer forward, who on Tuesday signed a Diallo hoops letter-of-intent with Kansas University.

Williams has worked with Diallo the last three years — since Cheick moved to America to immerse himself in basketball and academics at Our Savior New American High School in Centereach, New York.

MEMPHIS (99) AMERICAN FOOTBALL The Associated Press CONFERENCE Allen 3-6 1-2 8, Randolph 7-19 2-4 16, Gasol AMERICAN FOOTBALL CONFERENCE 9-15 8-10 26, Calathes 3-10 0-0 6, Lee 8-12 4-4 20,

Cleveland (ap) — Danny Salazar overcame a scary moment and a hot ballclub to remain unbeaten and help the Cleveland Indians snap a fourgame losing streak.

Salazar, who hit Alcides Escobar in the head with a pitch in the fifth inning, improved to 3-0 since being called up from the minors while Jason Kipnis homered and drove in four runs to lead the Indians past the Kansas City Royals, 7-5, on Wednesday night.

Salazar allowed four runs in six innings. His inside pitch to Escobar hit the Royals’ shortstop on the left side of the helmet. Escobar was on the ground for several moments and walked off the field with help from two Royals trainers.

Salazar was visibly upset over the incident and patted his hand in his glove as Escobar, who suffered a bruised left cheek, left the field.

“I was a little bit nervous,” Salazar said. “That’s not part of my game. I’m never going to try to do that intentionally to a guy.”

Escobar ended up with a headache, but didn’t go to hospital and didn’t have X-rays.

“It hit straight on my helmet, and I was real dizzy when it happened,” he said. “I feel OK, not bad, way better than when I got hit.”

Royals manager Ned Yost said he didn’t think Escobar would go on the disabled list, but it’s unclear when he’ll return to action.

Although Salazar gave up a 3-2 lead in the sixth when Eric Hosmer hit a two-run homer, the Indians bounced back with three in the bottom of the inning.

Kipnis hit a three-run home run — his first since July 31 of last season — in the third and he capped the sixth-inning rally with a run-scoring grounder.

Michael Bourn’s double gave Cleveland the lead.

Kipnis’ big night came one year to the day after he suffered a pulled oblique muscle, a major reason his average fell to .240 with six homers and 41 RBIs. “I didn’t know that,” Kipnis said when informed of the anniversary of the injury. “What a difference a year can make.

We can put that even more in the past.”

Yordano Ventura (2-2) allowed five runs in 5 1/3 innings. The right-hander, who is facing a seven-game suspension and was ejected from his last two starts, kept his poise and didn’t retaliate after Escobar was hit.

Cody Allen allowed a run in the ninth, but recorded his fourth save.

doesn’t have a team, so he focuses all of his effort into the club season. During the spring, he pitches and plays right field for his school’s baseball team, which is ranked No. 4 in Class 3A. He was drawn to Ad Astra after swimming against them for several years. He also was looking for a new team because his old club team didn’t have any older swimmers.

“It’s really exciting because where I’m from, it’s a little 3A school,” Garcia said. “The only people who sign are going to private (Div. III) or community colleges. There’s nobody who signs with big schools. I think the last person was Tyrel Reed with the (Kansas University) basketball team. It just doesn’t happen often.”

Garcia holds the AAAA club records in the long-course 50

freestyle (23.82), 100 freestyle (53.14) and 100 backstroke (1:02.05). He’s about half a second away from qualifying for the 2016 U.S. Olympic Team Trials in the 50 freestyle, which is one of his goals this summer.

When he’s out of school in the summer, his schedule often involves waking up at 4:30 a.m. for a 6 a.m. practice. He will then stay in Lawrence at a friend’s house to coach swim lessons and wait until the 5 p.m. evening practice, which usually lasts two hours, before making the drive back to Burlington.

Of course, there were plenty of times he didn’t want to make the long trip to Lawrence. He credits his parents for keeping him on track and driving him whenever he was too tired to go behind the wheel.

“If I didn’t have them in the times I needed that extra little push to keep going, then I probably wouldn’t be swimming right now,” Garcia said.

Garcia chose Kentucky over the University of Evansville

and Missouri University of Science and Technology. He liked how the Wildcats had a “respectfully casual” relationship between swimmers and coaches. The swimmers call their coaches by their first name and Garcia was sold on the school after taking a visit there.

Though he held a signing ceremony beforehand at his high school, he wanted to make sure he could celebrate with his teammates and coaches after how much they’ve helped him in the past few years.

“Before, when I wasn’t on this team, if you took the person with the worst work ethic here and divide that by four, that’s about how much effort I put into swimming,” Garcia said. “I was just going off all talent. But when I got here and I started working hard, that’s when I started to see big improvement and that was really the big key for me in swimming.

“I was told I had a lot of talent, but I didn’t believe it really. I see it now.”

pro day, has enjoyed the change of pace.

“It’s definitely a different kind of workout,” said Heeney, who has joined former Jayhawk JaCorey Shepherd and former Kansas City Chiefs fourth-round draft pick Donald Washington in working with Hudy during the past several weeks. “But it’s really helped me a ton. She really focuses on extensive stretching and it’s not just all about lifting and trying to go crazy.”

Added Washington, who met Hudy through his fiancee’, a former KU soccer player: “She’s amazing. She’s the best.”

Although Hudy said the pace and progression of Heeney’s workouts have moved at a comfortable pace — due, largely, to the fact that there’s no deadline for athlete or trainer to meet — the partnership produced some pretty important results on Day 1.

“The first day in, she recognized a flaw of mine that’s been bothering me for a while,” said Heeney of his natural tendency to turn his right foot out while doing just about any kind of stretching or lifting exercise.

According to Hudy, the tick is the likely product of a broken ankle Heeney suffered when he was younger. And Hudy has had to remind Heeney to fix it at least once every time the group has gotten together. Heeney said the constant reminders made such an impact that he often found himself straightening his right foot even while just standing around at home.

“He’s only played for one AAU program since he’s been in the States, which shows a level of commitment, loyalty and level of desire,” Williams added. “I would like to say he’s helped build this program into one of the top AAU programs in the country.”

Naturally everybody is most interested in how he can help KU’s team in what many are projecting to be a one-and-done college stay. Williams sees Diallo as an immediate contributor.

“He’s done a great job of understanding not just individual defense but team defense,” Williams said. “He has a high basketball IQ. He is learning how to pass out of double teams. He is learning how to shoot the 15-foot jumper over the past two years. He is capable at pick and pop and a good passer for someone his size.”

Asked to compare him to a current NBA player, Williams said: “At this point in time, I’d say Serge Ibaka (OKC Thunder). Serge is a guy who made a living on the defensive side and as he’s gotten older his offense has improved offensively over the course of the last few years.”

Williams said he has enjoyed visiting with KU’s coaches at New York events the past many years.

“I think it’s wonderful,” he said of KU recruiting the New York area. “Seeing the natural talent such as Cheick Diallo ... you should have no problem getting on a jet to get out here to recruit a kid. I think Norm Roberts (KU assistant from New York and former St. John’s head coach) and Bill Self and the rest of the (KU) staff did a great job of coming in and making sure he felt he was a priority for Kansas and their program. Kan-

As for the actual workouts, they’re designed to provide each athlete with the elasticity needed to make more fluid movements.

In-series plyometric jumping drills followed by simulated squats with bands lead effortlessly into modified power cleans. Between each set, Heeney, Washington and Shepherd ran through a series of box jumps designed to keep the muscles stretched between weight-training reps.

“It’s awesome,” Hudy said when asked how the football players had responded to the new approach. “They’re great.

They’re into it. Weight training’s a part of their culture and they’ve really taken in the information and been really dedicated. It’s easier to move, so they’re seeing it pay off.”

At this point, the hard work is done. Heeney, Shepherd and a handful of other Jayhawks can only wait to learn their fate.

While those two are the most likely Jayhawks to get drafted, cornerback Dexter McDonald and wide receiver Nigel King also may have a shot. In addition to that quartet, several players from last year’s 3-9 squad figure to earn pro camp invitations via free agency following the completion of the draft.

Heeney and Shepherd each will host their own draft parties with their families while waiting for their names to be called.

“I’ll probably be glued to the TV the whole draft,” Heeney said.

“I’m still excited about the whole thing. This is something that you only experience once and I want to soak it all in and enjoy it with my family.”

“

I think Norm Roberts (KU assistant from New York and former St. John’s head coach) and Bill Self and the rest of the (KU) staff did a great job of coming in and making sure he felt he was a priority for Kansas and their program.”

— Team SCAN director Terrence “Munch” Williams, on Cheick Diallo sas is a national program and Cheick is a national kid, similar to a lot of kids in New York at this point in time,” Williams stated. l Wiggins top rookie: Former KU guard Andrew Wiggins of the Minnesota Timberwolves today will be named rookie of the year, the AP reports. Wiggins averaged 16.9 points and 4.6 rebounds while logging 39 minutes a game in 82 games. He averaged 19.1 ppg after Jan. 1. In his final 13 games he averaged 23.3 points and 3.5 assists a game.

Wiggins, the No. 1 overall pick in the 2014 Draft, was traded by Cleveland to Minnesota in August.

He beat out the likes of Nerlens Noel, Nikola Mirotic and Elfrid Payton for the rookie award.

“In the last month, he’s probably had more highlight dunks than we’ve had in the last five years combined,” Wolves coach Flip Saunders told the AP. l Recruiting: Former VCU commit Tevin Mack, a 6-6 senior small forward from Dreher High in Columbia, South Carolina, tells ESPN that coaches from KU and Texas have visited him, with Georgia “also making a strong push.” His mom told Rivals.com he’d like to set up a visit to KU, but he has no official visits left.

MAJOR-LEAGUE ROUNDUP

No fans, no problem for O’s The Associated Press

American League Orioles 8, White Sox 2 Baltimore — In what was believed to be the first major league game played without fans in attendance, Chris Davis hit a three-run homer in a six-run first inning Wednesday and Baltimore beat the Chicago White Sox. The gates at Camden Yards were locked because of concern for fan safety following recent rioting in Baltimore after a 25-year-old black man died in police custody.

The unusual decision to play the game was made because it was the best time to fill out the schedule for both teams.

Both teams lined up for the national anthem, music was piped in between innings and the seventh inning streak was noted with the traditional John Denver song.

And the Orioles and White Sox played their game — albeit five hours earlier and in an eerily quiet ballpark.

In a crisp 2 hours, 3 minutes, Baltimore won its third straight since snapping a five-game losing streak.

Rays 3, Yankees 2, 13 innings New York — James Loney hit a go-ahead infield single in the 13th inning, and Tampa Bay outlasted the New York Yankees to avoid a threegame sweep.

New York’s Alex Rodriguez remained one home run shy of tying Willie Mays for fourth place at 660. A-Rod went 0 for 6 with four strikeouts and hit into a gameending double play. He is 5 for 36 (.139) since April 17, when he homered twice at Tampa Bay. It was just his fifth fourstrikeout game, first since 2008.

Heeney CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1C

since the last time we saw you?”

Heeney said he interviewed with every NFL team either at the EastWest Shrine Game, the NFL combine or pro day on campus. Two teams, the New England Patriots and Tampa Bay Buccaneers, came to KU to work him out and the Buccaneers flew him to Tampa for a visit.

He said most of those interviews followed a similar pattern: “Have you ever been in trouble?

What’s your family life like? Do you have a girlfriend? Do you have any kids? Are your parents still together? How many siblings do you have?

Then all the football questions.”

Heeney said he answered all the questions honestly, including volunteering that he was charged with DUI and racing on a highway in the summer leading up to his freshman season and was granted a diversion.

“That’s not on my record anymore,” he said.

“But this day and age everybody is going to know everything about you, so

why lie about anything?

I’m just straight-up with everybody. I learned from my mistakes and here we are.”

Heeney’s performance for Kansas, plus lobbying from former KU coach Charlie Weis, landed the 6-foot, 232-pound middle linebacker an invitation to the NFL combine.

His test results there helped his case.

Heeney’s 4.59 time in the 40-yard dash ranked fourth among 35 linebackers. His 11.06-second mark in the 60-yard shuttle was No. 1 and he also had the best times in the three-cone drill and 20-yard shuttle.

Anybody who remembers watching Heeney as a gunner on special teams as a freshman for Kansas was not surprised that his speed stood out at the combine. Somewhere rests a stack of T-shirts that could have gone to teammates.

Heeney remembered Aaron Stamn, tight ends and special teams coach at Kansas under Turner Gill, speaking after a game, offering a free T-shirt to anyone who could beat Heeney down the field on a coverage team when he was a freshman restricted to special teams.

Thursday, April 30, 2015

“

There are people who really like me and there are people who think I’m just a terrible player. The one that I think is the least accurate is that I’m undersized to play in the NFL.” — Former Kansas University linebacker Ben Heeney “It never happened,” said Heeney, a three-year starter for Kansas. “No one ever beat me down on kickoff the whole year.”

That’s because he’s really fast. That’s listed as one of his strengths on the endless thumbnail sketches of NFL draft prospects from various media outlets. Heeney reads as many as he can get his hands on and disputes some of the listed weaknesses.

“There are people who really like me and there are people who think I’m just a terrible player,” Heeney said. “The one that I think is the least accurate is that I’m undersized to play in the NFL.” He shared an anecdote from his visit to the Buccaneers complex to demonstrate that he’s not the only one who views it that way.

“When I went down to Tampa Bay and I vis-

ited with Lovie Smith, who is the head coach of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, the first thing he asked me when I walked in his office was, ‘Now, do you think you need to gain or lose weight?’

I said, ‘I think I’m good where I’m at. I don’t need to gain or lose.’

He said that’s a perfect answer,” Heeney said.

“They think that anything from 225 to 230 is perfect for their system.”

Heeney cited and disputed one more criticism he has read.

“Another one I think is a bogus stat is that I’m the leader in missed tackles in college football,” Heeney said. “I mean, they don’t have Joe Johnson going through every single game of every single team of every single player counting every single player’s missed tackles.

So I think it’s a BS stat to me.”

Its origin?

“That’s a good question. I think someone just stated it one time and it caught on like wildfire,” he said. “It’s not even a stat that’s kept by anyone. The Big 12 doesn’t keep that as a stat. The NCAA doesn’t keep that as a stat.

There is no way to determine what a missed tackle is.”

Heeney shared his view of what a missed tackle is not.

“There were numerous times on the field where there was no way I was going to be even close to getting a tackle and I would just lay out and dive and kind of sweep at somebody’s feet and try to grab them by their shoestrings and don’t even touch them,” he said. “I would just lay out and sacrifice my body. Does that count as a missed tackle?”

Heeney said he has “no idea,” what team or at what stage in the draft he would be selected. He guessed he would hear his name somewhere in the “third to fifth or sixth range.”

The first round of the NFL draft, carried by ESPN and the NFL Network, starts at 7 p.m. today. Rounds 2 and 3 are at 6 p.m. Friday. Rounds 4

| 9C

through 7 start Saturday at 11 a.m.

Heeney will watch coverage at his parents’ Overland Park home with friends and family. “Hopefully, I can get drafted so it’s not a waste of a party,” he said.

It would be a shocker if seven rounds passed without Heeney’s name being called, but getting drafted is just a step toward an NFL career and guarantees nothing.

“There’s a lot of money to be made in the sport of football,” Heeney said.

“Hopefully, I can get a little slice of the cake.”

Staying healthy and making a team’s roster would be the next steps to earning a living playing football, so Heeney hasn’t shopped for luxury automobiles and bling just yet.

“I’m going to try to invest my money, man, just keep stacking it and hopefully in a couple of years I’ll be a lot more wealthy than I am right now,” Heeney said.

“Only time will tell.

Who knows?”

At this point, nobody knows. The NFL draft is cloaked in secrecy, one of many qualities that make it so compelling.

Son’s ex-wife tries to blackmail relatives Dear Annie: My son’s marriage broke up after 10 years. Twice they attended counseling because his wife wanted to see other men. The third time, she was actually dating another guy. He and “Mandy” share custody of their three children.

Mandy had a troubled upbringing. Her mother neglected her, and she ended up in state care. At 18, she lived with a cousin in exchange for baby-sitting. This only worked until the cousin discovered Mandy was sleeping with her husband.

Mandy has a college degree, which she obtained while married to my son, but even while he paid alimony, along with her rent and utilities, she never made any effort to find work. She then

the children. She says she is broke and suicidal, has autism and PTSD and cannot live a decent life. If that’s true, however, she would be eligible for disability benefits, but she refuses to apply or seek counseling.

Mandy drinks and smokes pot and obviously has some mental health issues. She threatens to sue for sole custody so my son will have to pay her child support. She has alienated her entire family and most of her friends.

She has no one other than the current boyfriend, who lives with his mother and has no job.

It will only reward her negative behavior and ramp up the demands.

Instead, if you choose to do so, you could offer to pay for therapy sessions (sending the money directly to the therapist after verifying credentials). This would be for the benefit of your grandchildren, who need their mother to be stable and loving.

Seasons end on ‘Mom,’ ‘Backstrom’ Two series wrap up their seasons tonight. “Mom” (8 p.m., CBS) has already been renewed for a new season, while “Backstrom” (8 p.m., Fox) faces an uphill climb. Both series showcase familiar talents playing against the grain.

Although “Mom” will never win any prizes for cutting-edge originality, it has provided Allison Janney (“The West Wing”) a great opportunity to show off her lighter comedic side.

In cont r a s t , “ B a c k strom” a s k e d R a i n n Wilson to leave the effervescent absurdity of “The Office” to play a quirky, dirty and antisocial detective. The approach that worked so well as Dwight Schrute is more like mugging or overacting here. It doesn’t help that every character on “Backstrom” is similarly contrived.

The miniseries adaptation of J.K. Rowling’s novel “The Casual Vacancy” (8 p.m., HBO) concludes tonight with an election in Pagford that determines a new direction for the town and its residents.

There is probably no greater cliche in entertainment coverage than to announce “a star is born,” but viewers of this series will certainly be impressed by young Abigail Lawrie. She stars as Krystal Weedon, the powerful teenager at the center of the story. Krystal’s perseverance in the face of her mother’s addiction — not to mention her pride, spunk and singular wardrobe — earn the attention of characters on all sides of this class-struggle drama. Lawrie’s performance is all the more striking because it marks her screen debut.
