House rejects bill to repeal tax cuts

By Peter Hancock Twitter: @LJWpqhancock

Topeka — The Kansas House on Friday rejected a bill to reinstate income taxes on more

than 330,000 farmers and business owners after many of the Democrats and moderate Republicans who have complained most about that exemption for the last five years joined with a

number of conservative Republicans and voted against repealing it.

The bill failed on a 45-74 vote. Fourteen Democrats joined 31 Republicans in voting for the repeal. Twelve

Democrats, including House Minority Leader Tom Burroughs of Kansas City, joined 62 Republicans in voting against it.

Two Democrats and four Republicans were absent.

Lawrence Reps. Barbara

Ballard and Boog Highberger, both Democrats, and Republican Tom Sloan all voted in favor of repealing the tax exemption.

Report explains why KU faces diversity ‘crisis’

LOOKING TO THE PAST

———

Task force recommends ways to improve inclusion

By Sara Shepherd Twitter: @saramarieshep

A work group tasked with suggesting ways to improve diversity and inclusion at Kansas University has released its report, including more than 30 suggestions for change at KU. The Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Advisory Group report takes aim at the status quo at KU, including the Student Senate, the University Honors Program, required

curriculum, KU’s international student recruitment efforts and current methods for recruiting and developing students, faculty and staff from underrepresented domestic groups.

Reaching beyond KU, the report criticizes recently enacted or proposed Kansas legislation and national level politics and news events as contributors to a negative climate for diversity on campus.

School district steers away from outright flag ban

Man gets life sentence for 2014 killing

By Conrad Swanson Twitter: @Conrad_Swanson

Dustin Walker, who after three trials was found guilty of fatally shooting a 39-year-old Lawrence man in 2014, was sentenced Friday to life imprisonment.

Walker, 31, was found guilty of first-degree felony murder, which is a killing committed during the commission of a felony, on March 11. He was found guilty of ag-

gravated burglary in a previous trial a year earlier.

In all, Walker was sentenced by Douglas County District Court Judge Paula Martin to life imprisonment with the Walker eligibility of parole after 20 years for the felony murder charge, and an additional 130 months in prison for the aggravated burglary charge, Cheryl Wright-Kunard, assistant to the Douglas County

guilty of both first-degree murder and aggravated burglary in March 2015.

He was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole for 20 years for the murder charge and 57 months in prison for the burglary charge.

If released from prison, both Walker and Robinson will have to register as violent offenders for 15 years, the release said.

After a student petition gathered hundreds of signatures supporting a district policy banning the display of the Confederate flag, Lawrence school district leaders told students leading the effort that such a ban isn’t likely. Instead, members of the school board’s policy advisory committee said they SCHOOLS would focus on making existing discrimination polices more encompassing.

She’ll also read from and discuss parts of “Swing Time.”

All lectures are free and open to the public.

Man admits to illegally voting in both Kansas, Nebraska

SANDRA "SANDY" DAVIS Services are pending for Sandra "Sandy" Davis, 72, Lawrence and will be announced by Warren­ McElwain Mortuary. She died Thurs., April 28th.

Hays (ap) — A man who voted illegally in both Kansas and Nebraska in 2012 has been fined $5,500.

Michael L. Hannum now lives in Omaha, Neb., and pleaded guilty Thursday in Johnson County to three misdemeanors. The convictions are the third under a new state law that gives

Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach the power to prosecute election fraud allegations. Kobach said in a news release that the fine will “deter others.”

Hannum said earlier this year that he was traveling regularly at the time between a home in Johnson County and

Omaha, Neb., to visit family following his 83-yearold father’s death in early 2011.

He said authorities previously told him they closed their investigations and wouldn’t file charges because they didn’t believe the double voting was deliberate.

The report includes 16 “student centered” recommendations, eight “faculty centered,” six “staff centered” and four “campuswide.”

Student-related recommendations include boosting KU Endowment financial aid for low socioeconomic students, amping up recruitment efforts for students of color, facilitating more faculty-staff mentoring for underrepresented and first-generation students, and increasing minorities involved with the University Honors Program.

“The very existence of an Honors Program demonstrates the existence of stratification in higher education, calling into question the democratic functions of the public university,” the report says. “... If they are to exist, Honors opportunities should be distributed in a more participatory and forward-looking manner.”

The report also suggests the KU Student Senate be “placed under immediate review” and that student governance be restructured “so that it functions in a more participatory, inclusive, and representative manner.”

The report goes so far as to call Student Senate’s “exclusivity and greek life-centeredness” a “crisis” that warrants direct attention and intervention by KU leaders at the highest levels.

The report recommends supporting creation of the newly proposed Multicultural Student Government.

“We recognize, however, that the creation of the Multicultural Student Government would not adequately resolve existing concerns about the patterns of exclusivity in the Student Senate regarding campaigning, representation, parliamentary procedures and decisionmaking,” the report says.

“The consequence of these patterns is not only that students of color are effectively shut out of a meaningful presence in campus governance, but also that white students are conditioned to hoard privileges and behave in exclusionary ways.”

The report also includes more narrowly focused student-related recommendations, including recognizing Indigenous People’s Day and enhancing efforts to provide more gender-neutral bathrooms across campus.

The report cites actions of a group of primarily black student activists as a turning point on the KU campus, following racial unrest on other campuses including the University of Missouri.

“The tide reached KU in November 2015, when members of Rock Chalk Invisible Hawk (RCIH), an undergraduate-led group of multiracial demonstrators, ‘occupied’ an open forum on ‘race, respect and responsibility’ moderated by Chancellor Gray-Little,” according to the report. “Taking the stage, they unveiled a list of 15 demands.”

However, the report also acknowledges that not all black or other minority students agree with Rock Chalk Invisible Hawk.

“It has been evident, too, that KU student activists of color have not spoken with a single voice,” the report says.

“Among black students, differences have surfaced regarding appropriate methods of protest, political tone, rhetorical style, preferences for disruption versus conciliation, and the perceived relationship between the Black Student Union and RCIH-led activities. Although black students have been the nucleus of the recent campus unrest, and perhaps the most visible participants, their protests have helped highlight and elevate additional issues, such as being undocumented or facing ‘Islamophobia.’”

In addition to several other recommendations addressing faculty and staff recruitment, mentoring and support, the report also suggests morphing the task force into the “Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Advisory Council,” an ongoing body independent from but directly advising the chancellor and provost.

“As a public flagship university, KU has the rare distinction of a black female Chancellor, Bernadette Gray-Little, but this alone does not translate into improved opportunities for minoritized populations — no more than the election of the first black President of the United States of America has brought the nation to post-racial bliss,” the report says.

Flag

“It was kind of taking over and students were even talking about walking out, so I would say it definitely disturbed our environment and endangered our education.”

Sanburn said that including the display of hateful or discriminatory symbols in the discrimination policy could assure district teachers and administrators that they need not wait for disruptions to occur should a student display a hateful or discriminatory symbol, such as a Confederate flag, swastika or other symbol of white supremacy.

“I think as far as enforcement is concerned, we can view the Confederate flag as a hate message and ask for removal based on that,” Sanburn said.

Committee members told the students that broadening the district’s existing discrimination and harassment policy to include symbols could accomplish the same goal as an outright ban of the flag, and also minimize the risk of the district facing litigation for violating students’ freedom of expression. The discrimination policy currently bans written, verbal or physical discrimination and harassment. Cunningham said the committee could also consider changes to other policies, such as the bullying policy, to better address racial issues.

“I think there is some balances in there that the board might be able to strike to look at multiple policies,” he said.

The advisory committee will meet again Tuesday to continue its discussion and begin drafting a policy.

include symbols,” school board President Vanessa Sanburn told the students at a meeting Friday. “…It is written in a way that allows us to (tell students they can’t bring a flag to school), but to make it more explicit is a goal that we have and that we would feel comfortable recommending to the entire board.”

Sanburn is on the policy advisory committee along with board member Shannon Kimball and Dave Cunningham, director of human resources and legal services for the district. The committee met with the three Free State High School students — Abena Peasah, Seamus Ryan and Maame Britwum — who wrote and submitted the student petition to the board.

The petition followed an incident in January in which a Free State student flew a full-sized Confederate flag from his pickup truck that he parked on school grounds. Some students were upset by the flag, which flew from its makeshift flagpole for about a week before school administration told the student he could no longer display it because it was disrupting the learning environment. Part of the reason for requesting a ban was so that if another student were to bring a flag, another disruption wouldn’t have to occur before that student was told to take it down.

“It disrupted classes in classes where you wouldn’t expect it to be discussed, like foreign language classes and math classes,” Peasah said of the presence of the flag on school grounds.

Diversity CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A

The bulk of the 29-page report comprises an atlength, scholarly description of recent events at KU that brought the campus to its “current crossroads.”

“We offer this narrative context primarily as a means of preserving historical memory, which we hope will make it more difficult for our peers, colleagues and senior leaders to claim innocence or a lack of knowledge about the state of diversity, equity and inclusion work at KU in the future,” the group wrote.

“The pronounced narrative tone of this advisory report is also a means of highlighting the difficulties and possibilities of diversity work in making public higher education a space for both learning and social justice.”

The office of the provost created the Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Advisory Group in late November, on the heels of KU’s town hall forum on race and ensuing campus unrest over the issue.

The group was tasked with examining instances of discrimination and intolerance on KU’s campus and recommending actions to create “an environment where everyone is valued,” according to KU. The recommendations are now in the hands of KU’s top officials.

“The advisory group has created a document that will inform our continuing work to address the issues of diversity, equity and inclusion at KU and ensure that our campus is a welcoming space for all,” Chancellor Bernadette Gray-Little and interim provost Sara Rosen said Friday in a joint statement shared by KU. “In consultation with other members of the KU administration, we will review the observations and recommendations in the report over the coming weeks so we can issue a thorough response later this summer and continue our efforts on this topic.”

Athletics Director Sheahon Zenger and associate professor and African and AfricanAmerican Studies department chairman Clarence Lang are co-chairmen of the 13-member advisory group, which also has student representatives.

State to text parents who owe child support Man sentenced to 10 years for robbery Wichita (ap) — Kansas Department for Children and Families officials say it will begin texting parents who owe child support in an effort increase collections.

The department started a pilot project with 100,000 Kansas residents to see if texting helps remind parents to pay child support, The Wichita Eagle reported.

The department will

also try using texts to remind people about court dates and other appointments.

A news release about the program says that texts will be sent to remind non-custodial parents who haven’t paid child support in the last 45 days. The text will include the court order number, amount of money owed and a link to the payment website.

Department spokeswoman Theresa Freed said the programs costs the state less than $5,000, which comes from postal mail savings.

“We want to see if this is a good way to increase collections,” she said. “If it is, we’ll roll it out statewide.”

Freed said the state can send 1,000 messages every day between 9 a.m. and 6 p.m. The state has

cellphone numbers for nearly 49,000 non-custodial parents and nearly 65,000 custodial parents.

The department also announced that child support recipients will get a new debit card soon as Child Support Services switched its card carriers from J.P. Morgan Chase Bank to KeyBank. Payments will be deposited to KeyBank cards starting June 17.

SATURDAY COLUMN

Provost candidates well qualified, but one stands out

By Dolph C. Simons Jr.

Standing room only attendance at the public presentations by candidates seeking the job of provost at Kansas University sent a clear message regarding interest in and concern about who will take over this important position.

Each of the candidates — Neeli Bendapudi, dean of business at KU; Larry Singell, executive dean of arts and sciences at Indiana University; and Chaden Djalali, dean of arts and sciences at the University of Iowa — differed in their presentations but all focused on a similar theme: better communications. And, as expected, all crafted their remarks to gain the support of the faculty-dominated audience.

It is interesting that two of the three are foreign-born. Bendapudi was born in India, and Djalali was born in Morocco.

Bendapudi was well-known to most of the audience, or at least her record was, and she demonstrated firsthand knowledge of the serious situation on Mount Oread. She was at ease and congenial in her presentation.

The other two, from out of state, were unknown and had the challenge of establishing their credibility as well as how they would address the question

posed to all the candidates: “How can a provost foster an intellectually vibrant campus and advance the educational and research quality of the university?”

The timetable calls for all the relative information about the candidates, along with the assessment of those who served on the search and selection committee, to be collected and reviewed over the next two weeks and then be forwarded to the chancellor, who will make the final selection.

It was obvious there is great interest among the faculty in who will become provost. It was also obvious there are serious issues facing the university, and faculty members wanted to know how each candidate would address these matters.

Money and the consequences of cutbacks in state funding were common concerns, and each candidate said university officials must do a far better job in telling the school’s story, the importance of KU to the state and the importance of developing better relationships with state lawmakers.

Each candidate said the provost must be a good and highly respected communicator with the faculty, the local community (Lawrence and the state) and with legislators. The provost

must be open and honest with the faculty and make a genuine effort to learn and appreciate all sides of contentious issues.

Obviously Bendapudi is well aware of the current situation while Singell and Djalali had to shape their remarks on what others may have told them.

COMMENTARY All three candidates have excellent records. Unfortunately, two of the three — Singell and Djalali — based on their records, seem to be engaged in a game of academic hopscotch, trying to skip from school to school with the goal of landing a chancellorship or presidency. Bendapudi certainly has her eye on eventually moving into the top position of a major university (or a major business position), but her current goal is to remain at KU to help make the university an even greater institution.

It is known she has turned down numerous prestigious and higher-paying jobs to remain at KU. The records of the other two candidates should raise the question in the minds of those making their thoughts known to the chancellor of how long either

intends to remain in the KU provost’s office before looking for a higher position elsewhere.

There’s also the matter of the “KU situation” becoming more serious or dangerous week by week. Faculty unrest, poor morale, the contentious relationship with legislators, the loss of talented faculty, continual reductions in state fiscal support and many other issues are real problems and cannot be overstated.

One of the candidates knows this from firsthand experience, and she is known and respected by state lawmakers, KU alumni and major business leaders.

The KU faculty knows her and knows her record. Some may be jealous of her success, and envy may play a role in how such faculty members judge her qualifications.

How long would it take for the other two candidates to learn and understand the political landscape as well as earn the respect of faculty and Kansas legislators?

The university cannot afford to place the school’s future on hold until those in Strong Hall get up to speed. As it is, no one has any idea how long Chancellor Bernadette Gray-Little intends to remain as the school’s leader, and this certainly is on

the minds of all three candidates for the provost’s position, although none mentioned this at the public meetings.

Is the KU chancellorship the goal of each candidate and, if so, which one would make the best leader? Will this come into consideration when the chancellor makes her selection for the next provost?

Again, the importance of getting the right person as the new provost cannot be overstated.

The university cannot be handicapped by inaction, acceptance of mediocrity, poor relations with and lack of respect from state lawmakers and a lack of understanding by the governor of the importance of excellence at the state-aided universities.

Do legislators and the governor understand the importance and role of a “flagship” institution and the benefits to the state of a university’s membership in the Association of American Universities?

KU enjoys a proud record, but this does not guarantee continued success. Changes and improvements must be made. Faculty, students, alumni and friends of the university will get a clear signal regarding the aspirations for KU based on whom the chancellor selects as the university’s next provost.

Lawmakers pass bills on surveillance technology, SLAPP suits

By Peter Hancock Twitter: @LJWpqhancock

Topeka — The Kansas Senate on Friday passed and sent to Gov. Sam Brownback two bills that reflect how the law often trails behind technology.

Senate Bill 22 would classify audio and video from police body and dashboard cameras as “criminal investigation documents” and thus exempt them from mandatory

disclosure under the Kansas Open Records Act. The end result is that police departments won’t be required to release video from body cameras or dash cameras to the media.

Body and dashboard cameras have become a growing trend in law enforcement. Although some oppose their use, many law enforcement agencies support their use, believing they can exonerate officers from false claims of

police brutality.

Under the bill, individuals who are involved in an incident captured on such video, their parents, guardians and attorneys, would be entitled to access the audio or video, although agencies would be allowed to charge a reasonable fee for such access.

Lawmakers also passed a final version of a bill to prohibit stalking someone by use of unmanned aerial systems, or drones.

Kansas has long had a “protection from stalking” law that allows victims to seek a restraining order to prevent someone from “intentional harassment of another person that places the other person in reasonable fear for that person’s safety.”

Senate Bill 319 includes a provision that adds the use of drones to the definition of harassment.

That same bill also enacts a new law called the

Bill lowering marijuana penalties sent to governor

By Peter Hancock Twitter: @LJWpqhancock

Topeka — A bill lowering penalties for first- and second-time marijuana possession is on its way to Gov. Sam Brownback.

House Bill 2462 passed the House by a vote of 96-23 Friday, sending it to the governor. The Senate approved the bill earlier in the day, 38-0.

The original purpose of the bill was to reduce the state’s prison population

Tax CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A

Rep. John Wilson, DLawrence, voted against the bill.

“I’m sure it can strike people as odd,” Wilson said after the vote. “I weighed this really heavily and we all could have voted for it today, and it’s most likely not going to go anywhere in the Senate, and certainly the governor’s not going to sign it. And even if it passes and the governor does sign it, we’re still going to have to make $290 million in budget cuts.

We still have the highest sales tax in the country. We still have no way to pay for schools. And we’re going to be back next year having more tax conversations.”

The exemption was part of a sweeping package of tax cuts that lawmakers passed in 2012. It exempts from state income taxes all of the income people derive from certain business operations such as partnerships, limited liability corporations, sole proprietorships and so-called S-corporations, which are another type of business in which the income of the business is also the personal income of its owners.

The bill would have repealed the exemption starting Jan. 1, 2017, which means the state only would have received revenue from it during the last two quarters of the next fiscal year.

The most recent revenue estimates forecast that Kansas revenues will fall $291 million short of approved expenditures between now and the end of the next fiscal year.

Public Speech Protection Act. It would allow a defendant in a civil defamation suit to ask the court to strike such a claim if he or she can show that the claim represents an infringement of that person’s free speech rights.

That part of the bill is meant to prevent what are called “strategic lawsuits against public participation,” or SLAPP suits.

Those are suits in which individuals or businesses

try to censor, intimidate or silence critics — such as people who write negative reviews at online sites such as Yelp — by burdening those critics with high litigation costs until they abandon their criticism.

Both bills passed both chambers unanimously, 119-0 in the House and 40-0 in the Senate.

Modified tax lid bill for local governments goes to governor

by reclassifying first-time possession as a class B misdemeanor, which generally involves a fine of up to $1,000 but can also include up to six months in a county jail.

A second conviction would be reduced from a low-level felony to a class A misdemeanor, punishable by a $2,500 fine or one year in a county jail, or both. Third and subsequent offenses would qualify as a level 5 felony, with presumptive prison

sentences ranging from 62 to 170 months, depending on the defendant’s criminal history.

In the Senate, however, the original House bill was changed to add increased penalties for certain types of home burglaries, including presumptive imprisonment for defendants who have previous felony convictions.

The Senate also stripped out two other provisions the House had

approved: legalizing use of hemp oil for treating seizure disorders, and authorizing research into industrial uses of hemp.

According to the Department of Corrections, the net effect of the bill would be an estimated reduction of 32 adult bed spaces in the state prison system in the next fiscal year.

The Kansas Department of Revenue, though, estimated that passage of the bill would only produce about $61 million next fiscal year, and $205 million in the following fiscal year.

Tax negotiators from the House and Senate had agreed earlier in the day to put the bill up for a vote, acknowledging that many lawmakers had insisted on being allowed to cast a recorded vote, and that many of their constituents have criticized the tax policy since it was enacted in 2012.

Rep. Mark Hutton, RWichita, who has long been a critic of the business exemption, said many House members want a public vote on the bill, even if it’s a no vote, just so they can be on record about the issue heading into the 2016 election cycle.

“They believe it’s time to at least have the conversation,” he said. “I’ve been saying that since day one of this session.

It’s time to have the conversation, it’s time to have the vote, and let’s put it to bed.”

Rep. Stephanie Clayton, a moderate Republican from Overland Park, was one of several moderate Republicans who voted against the bill.

She said before the vote that the bill did not go far enough in providing a long-term solution to the state’s financial needs.

“I think that if we’re going to come out of this with responsible budgeting (and) with a balanced budget, which is what the people of Kansas who pay our taxes and run this government for us really deserve, then we need to make sure that we have a very high-quality, solid

plan, and we need to make sure that we are working together as a team — House, Senate and the second floor (governor’s office) — to make the best decisions possible for the state,” she said.

On the House floor, though, a number of Democrats argued forcefully in favor of the bill.

Rep. Henry Helgerson, D-Wichita, said the business exemption was effectively shielding from taxation $3.4 billion of income from the 2,400 wealthiest people in Kansas, those who make more than $500,000 a year.

“Rather than providing it for state government, rather than providing an equitable tax structure, we’re giving it to the wealthiest of this state,” he said.

He said those individuals, whose incomes average $2.1 million a year, receive 35 percent of the benefit of the exemption for business income.

With the bill’s defeat, lawmakers now must turn their attention to balancing the state’s budget.

Last week, the Brownback administration outlined three options for closing the budget gap, all of which involve sweeping $185 million out of the state highway fund to shore up the general fund, forcing delays in about two dozen major highway expansion and modernization projects.

He also is calling for a 3 percent, or $17.7 million, reduction in funding to the state’s six universities.

In addition to those moves, Brownback is asking lawmakers either to allow his administration to sell part of the state’s interest in future tobacco settlement revenue, or

allow him to delay for another year a payment into the Kansas Public Employees Retirement System, a payment that was supposed to have been made April 15.

The third option, if lawmakers choose to do nothing, would be to impose across-the-board allotment cuts ranging from 3 to 5 percent to most state agencies and programs, including K-12 education.

After the vote on the tax bill, House and Senate budget negotiators met to hammer out a final budget deal. Late Friday evening, House negotiators offered several compromise positions, including one that allows the governor to delay the $92 million repayment to KPERS, but would repay that money using any excess tobacco money the state receives that doesn’t otherwise go toward children’s programs, plus any excess general fund revenues the state receives above the official revenue estimates.

House budget committee chairman Rep. Ron Ryckman Jr., R-Olathe, also offered language that would hold K-12 education harmless from any mid-year budget cuts that the governor may need to order.

Senate negotiators are expected to respond to that offer when the budget conference committee meets again this morning.

Some lawmakers think they can wrap the session up and adjourn later today, if they can reach agreement on a budget plan and a few other minor bills.

sentenced Rayton to serve a total of 114 months in prison and to pay $2,115.92 in restitution.

Alex Caprice Sanders, 19, the man police say also took part in the robbery, still faces felony charges of aggravated kidnapping, aggravated burglary and aggravated robbery.

Early in the morning of

June 30, police responded to an apartment in the 2400 block of Alabama Street for a report of a robbery, according to arrest affidavits for both Rayton and Sanders.

The two men entered the apartment at gunpoint, and Rayton hit the woman in the head with the weapon, the victim

testified during a preliminary hearing in January.

The men stole marijuana, liquid phencyclidine, or PCP, drug paraphernalia, around $1,700 worth of electronics and a black duffel bag worth around $20.

During the incident, the woman’s children — one 7 months old, the other 3 years old — were

sleeping in the apartment, she said. Neither of the children were injured.

The two men shut the woman in her bathroom and left through her back door, she said. Sanders was arrested in Topeka on Dec. 3 while Rayton had already been in Douglas County Jail for the past five months, related to

a failure to comply with court orders.

A jury trial for Sanders is scheduled to begin at 9 a.m. Wednesday. He is currently held in the Douglas County Jail in lieu of $200,000 bond.

The hospital’s Board of Trustees named Johnson, 57, as the new CEO during a special meeting called Thursday evening.

He’ll replace current CEO Gene Meyer, who is set to retire May 31 after 19 years in the position.

A nationwide search for a new CEO started in August and drew more than 150 applications from candidates in 16 states.

Johnson, an executive at Centura Health System

in Englewood, Colo., previously served as CEO of San Luis Valley Regional Medical Center in Alamosa, Colo.

As senior vice president of network development and outreach at Centura, he was responsible for the system’s telehealth initiatives and working with partner hospitals, among other things.

After three years with Centura, Johnson said he wanted to regain a “sense

of community and sense of personal engagement.”

“I had that at the San Luis Valley for 12 years,” Johnson said. “You have that with a big system, but it’s just different. It’s not impersonal, but it’s personal in a different way.”

Johnson grew up in Merriam, and both he and his wife, Isabel, have family in Johnson County.

The family ties were a draw, Johnson said, and

so, too, was the idea of heading a “strong” and “financially sound” hospital.

“It’s just a really good place,” he said of LMH. “It’s not in need of a turnaround; it’s not in crisis.

It just needs a leader who can continue the good things already being done and who will add some new perspectives. I think there’s every reason to feel enthusiastic and optimistic about the future.”

The hospital’s board is working with Johnson to determine his start date, which will most likely be the last week of July or first week of August, he said.

Karen Shumate, LMH’s chief operating officer, will serve as interim CEO from June 1 until Johnson arrives.

Topeka — The Kansas House and Senate gave final passage Friday to a bill that modifies a property tax lid law they approved last year, with plenty of exemptions that will allow cities and counties to continue increasing property tax revenues from certain sources.

House Bill 2088 now goes to Gov. Sam Brownback for his signature or veto.

Last year, lawmakers passed a bill that requires cities and counties to get voter approval before they could increase property tax revenues from one year to the next beyond the rate of inflation.

That law is scheduled to take effect July 1, 2018.

The new bill moves up the effective date by one year, to 2017, but includes a number of exemptions that would allow cities and counties to increase revenues under certain conditions without voter approval.

Those include new revenues generated by new construction or improvement to existing property; annexation of new territory; the expiration of property tax abatements that were given for economic development reasons; and new taxes raised to pay for public safety functions, to pay legal settlements or to comply with state or federal mandates.

The Kansas Association

of Realtors pushed hard for passage of last year’s bill, which was added late in the session to a larger tax bill. That group also pushed hard again this year, hoping to advance the effective date to July 1, 2016.

But organizations representing cities and counties pushed back this year, arguing that as the current law was written, it created a disincentive for growth because any new property value added to the local jurisdiction’s tax base would not generate new revenue, even though growth often brings with it higher costs for things like police and fire protection or street maintenance.

The compromise bill was worked out after lengthy negotiations, and while cities and counties said they still were not pleased with a new tax lid, they agreed the new bill would be an improvement over the existing law.

The final version of the bill passed 37-3 in the Senate and 112-5 in the House.

All six members of the Douglas County delegation voted in favor of the bill, including Democratic Sens. Marci Francisco of Lawrence and Tom Holland of Baldwin City, Democratic Reps. Barbara Ballard, Boog Highberger and John Wilson of Lawrence; and Lawrence Republican Rep. Tom Sloan.

Retailers offer new plan for liquor sales

Topeka (ap) — A group of grocery and convenience stores in Kansas has proposed a new plan for expanding liquor sales, saying it would generate a $41 million cash infusion toward the state’s budget deficit.

The Uncork Kansas coalition is proposing that large retailers would be able to buy full liquor licenses directly from the state. That would eliminate current laws that limit them to selling beer with an alcohol percentage less than 3.2 percent.

The plan abandons efforts that would’ve required big-box stores to buy liquor — Statehouse reporter Peter Hancock licenses of small busican be reached at 354-4222 or nesses. Those businesses phancock@ljworld.com. are currently the only stores

in the state allowed to sell full-strength beer, wine and spirits.

Under the plan, about 165 of the state’s largest grocers would pay $200,000 per license, which could generate $32.6 million. Smaller stores would pay on a graduated scale from $10,000 to $100,000 per license, for about $8.4 million.

Efforts to expand alcohol sales have been fended off for years by smaller liquor-only stores that argue it would run them out of business, decrease the property-tax base in struggling rural communities and strand the investments they’ve made in their stores.

Dear Annie: Can anyone tell me why old men (over 60) don’t or won’t shower or put on clean clothes?

I have several older male friends who smell so bad that we don’t want to be any closer than 12 feet. And they wear the same clothes for weeks until the clothes almost fall off their bodies.

When they come to visit, the furniture where they sit smells for a couple of days, and the same thing happens when they ride in my car. And going into a store with them is embarrassing.

They look like homeless bums.

These men are not stupid. They are educated and intelligent and had good jobs with good paychecks.

ing, I know it’s going to be really bad. They have families and other friends, but these people either have no problem with the smell or they don’t see the men often enough to be aware of how bad it is.

These men all live alone and their homes are filthy. They aren’t under a doctor’s care or living in a nursing home, so they don’t have medical prob-

Rock on HBO, jazz on ABC For the second Saturday in a row, HBO dedicates the night to music. Like last week’s Beyonce special “Lemonade,” tonight’s broadcast of the 2016 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony (7 p.m.) arrives somewhat overshadowed by last week’s sudden death of Prince.

This year’s performer inductees include Cheap Trick, Chicago, Deep Purple, N.W.A. and Steve Miller. The ceremonies took place on April 8 and included concert tributes to the late David Bowie and Glenn Frey.

HBO will include footage from Prince’s 2004 Hall of Fame induction as well.

Arguably the most newsworthy fireworks to emerge from the gathering were Steve Miller’s dyspeptic comments about the institution, its selection process and the ceremony itself.

O ABC emphasizes the downbeat with “Jazz at the White House” (7 p.m., TV-PG). The president and first lady host a concert featuring performances by Herbie Hancock, Sting, Aretha Franklin, Trombone Shorty, Diana Krall, Al Jarreau, Hugh Masekela, Buddy Guy, Chick Corea, Wayne Shorter and Pat Metheny.

The gathering celebrates International Jazz Day, established to spotlight the art form as a unique American institution embraced by people throughout the world. This affection has contributed to jazz’s long tradition in official and unofficial diplomatic service.

Herbie Hancock may be best known for playing with such legends as Miles Davis, infusing the music with funk on albums like “Head Hunters” (1973) and popularizing jazz on MTV with his “Rockit” video (1983). But at this ceremony he also serves as a UNESCO Goodwill Ambassador.

Jazz has long been one of America’s most popular exports. For decades, Duke Ellington’s “Take the A Train” was the theme of Voice of America’s “Jazz Hour.” This shortwave radio program popularized American music and with it the American Dream around the globe. At its height, the show reached an audience of 30 million, many behind the Iron Curtain. This concert celebrates and continues that diplomatic tradition.

Tonight’s other highlights

The world according to Trump Washington — Foreign policy does not determine American elections. Indeed, of all Western countries, we are the least interested in the subject. The reason is simple: We haven’t had to be. Our instinctive isolationism derives from our geographic exceptionalism.

As Bismarck once explained (it is said), the United States is the most fortunate of all Great Powers, bordered on two sides by weak neighbors and on the other two by fish.

Two world wars, nuclear missiles and international terrorism have disabused us of the illusion of safety-by-isolation.

More incoherent still is Trump’s insistence on being unpredictable. An asset perhaps in real estate deals, but in a Hobbesian world American allies rely on American consistency, often as a matter of life and death.”

from the Democratic presidential race where foreign policy has been treated as a nuisance, a distraction from such fundamental questions as whether $12 or $15 is the proper minimum wage.

On the Republican side, however, foreign policy has been the subject of furious debate.

To which Donald Trump has contributed significantly, much of it off-the-cuff, contradictory and confused. Hence his foreign policy speech on Wednesday. It was meant to make him appear consistent, serious and presidential.

He did check off the required box: delivering a “major address” to a serious foreign policy outfit, the Center for the National Interest (once known

as the Nixon Center). As such, it fulfilled a political need.

As did its major theme, announced right at the top: America First. Classically populist and invariably popular, it is nonetheless quite fraught. On the one hand, it can be meaningless — isn’t every president trying to advance American interests? Surely Truman didn’t enter the Korean War for the sake of Koreans, but from the conviction that intervention was essential for American security.

On the other hand, America First does have a history. In 1940, when Britain was fighting for its life and Churchill was begging for U.S. help, it was the name of the group most virulently opposed to U.S. intervention. It disbanded — totally discredited — four days after Pearl Harbor.

The irony is that while President Obama would never use the term, it is the underlying theme of his foreign policy — which Trump constantly denounces as a series of disasters. Obama, like Trump, is animated by the view that we are overextended and overinvested abroad. “The nation that I’m most interested in building is our own,” declared Obama in his December 2009 West Point address on Afghanistan.

This is also the theme of Bernie Sanders. No great surprise.

Left and right isolationism have found common cause since the 1930s. Socialist Party leader Norman Thomas often shared the platform with Charles Lindbergh at America First rallies.

Both the left and right have a long history of advocating American retreat and retrenchment. The difference is that liberals want to come home because they think we are not good enough for the world.

Conservatives want to wash their hands of the world because they think the world is not good enough for us.

For Obama, we are morally unworthy to act as world hegemon. Our hands are not clean.

He’s gone abroad confessing our various sins — everything from the Iranian coup of 1953 to our unkind treatment of Castro’s Cuba to the ultimate blot, Hiroshima, a penitential visit to which Obama is currently considering.

Trump would be rightly appalled by such a self-indicting trip. His foreign policy stems from a proud nationalism that believes that these recalcitrant tribes and nations are unworthy of American expenditures of blood and treasure.

This has been the underlying view of conservative isolationism from Lindbergh through Pat Buchanan through Rand Paul. It is not without its attractions. Trump’s version,

however, is inconsistent and often contradictory. After all, he pledged to bring stability to the Middle East. How do you do that without presence, risk and expenditures (financial and military)? He attacked Obama for letting Iran become a “great power.” But doesn’t resisting that automatically imply engagement?

More incoherent still is Trump’s insistence on being unpredictable. An asset perhaps in real estate deals, but in a Hobbesian world American allies rely on American consistency, often as a matter of life or death. Yet Trump excoriated the Obama-Clinton foreign policy for losing the trust of our allies precisely because of its capriciousness. The tilt toward Iran. The red line in Syria. Canceling the East European missile defense. Abandoning Hosni Mubarak.

Trump’s scripted, telepromptered speech was intended to finally clarify his foreign policy. It produced instead a jumble. The basic principle seems to be this: Continue the inexorable Obama-Clinton retreat, though for reasons of national self-interest, rather than of national self-doubt. And except when, with studied inconsistency, he decides otherwise.

PUBLIC FORUM

Questions aplenty

Desperadoes

To the editor: What is our governor thinking?

He has given tax cuts and tax-free status to those who can most afford to pay and has burdened those least able with sales tax.

On April 21, I read in the JournalWorld about planned, massive, new slashes to certain state services and using designated funds, such as the Children’s Fund, for other services to cover the shortfall of revenue for the budget.

How can anyone with good conscience use Children’s Funds for other purposes? Why defund public education or privatize health care?

Where is the money coming from to hire staff for the 100 mentally ill inmates who were moved from the hospital to the correction facility (prison)?

How can they be treated appropriately in this very, very inappropriate setting? Are they going back to lock them up and throw away the key?

What is our governor thinking?

Sally Van Tassel, Lawrence

To the editor: Congrats to Kris Kobach for his second voter fraud conviction. Now I can sleep at night, knowing that people who are moving to Colorado won’t even think about voting in Kansas. Or for that matter, they probably won’t think about moving back to Kansas either. I sure wouldn’t, if I had been given such a nasty little parting gift.

Kobach says that by going after voter fraud he is demonstrating to Kansans that their vote “absolutely matters.”

Really? There is a whole generation of 20-somethings who are convinced that their vote doesn’t matter. They don’t vote or become politically engaged. Is this going to change their minds?

Somehow, I think a secretary of state who was doing his job would worry more about the people who don’t vote than the handful of illegitimate voters who do. But that’s just me. So, keep it up, Mr. Kobach. Go after those doublevotin’ desperadoes. Put on your cowboy hat and chase them to the ends of the earth! And maybe … don’t come back?

Standards for Financial Advisors: The House voted, 234-183, to kill a Department of Labor rule requiring financial advisors to retirement plans to adhere to fiduciary standards obligating them to put clients’ interests ahead of their own. A yes vote was to repeal the new rule. (HJ Res 88)

Y Y Y Y

Change in Stock Rules: The House voted, 325-89, to ease a Securities and Exchange Commission rule in a way that gives start-up firms better access to so-called angel investors. A yes vote was to pass HR 4498, which would boost start-ups that have not yet registered with the SEC.

D.C. School Vouchers: The House voted, 224 -181, to renew the District of Columbia school-voucher program on a budget of $60 million annually through fiscal 2021. A yes vote was to pass HR 4901, which would pay students’ tuition in transfers from public to private schools.

Gender Identity: The House defeated, 167 -228, a bid by Democrats to prohibit nonpublic schools taking part in the D.C. voucher program from discriminating against students on the basis of gender identity or sexual orientation. A yes vote backed the amendment to HR 4901 (above).

Clinton camp shifts to fall swing states Democratic front-runner looks to hit the ground running in likely battle vs. Trump Heidi M. Przybyla USA TODAY

Hillary Clinton’s campaign is redeploying its army of primary election staff to traditional general election battleground states in preparation for a campaign against Republican Donald Trump, according to a senior campaign official.

The initial deployment is likely to hit states that have swung between Republicans and Democrats in recent cycles, according to the official, such as Ohio and Florida.

Additionally, with the billion-

aire businessman looking increasingly likely to be the GOP nominee, the Clinton campaign sees an opportunity to expand beyond this map, said the official, who wasn’t authorized to discuss internal plans and wouldn’t specify which new battleground states the campaign might target.

The redeployment comes as the campaign cuts back advertising in upcoming Democratic primary states, including Oregon and California. It follows a decision by her challenger, Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, to lay off hundreds of staff after losing four of five critical Eastern primary states to Clinton on Tuesday.

PETER FOLEY, EPA

Hillary Clinton is closing in on the Democratic nomination.

Even Sanders is admitting his path to the nomination is narrow, with few opportunities ahead to scoop up the delegates needed to win, and he has been toning down

rhetoric critical of Clinton.

Mo Elleithee, a campaign official during her 2008 White House bid, said Sanders has earned the right to stay in the race. “But Hillary Clinton has earned the right to start campaigning as the nominee,” he said.

“And it’s actually more than a right, it’s an obligation at this point.”

“There’s no point in playing coy anymore,” said Elleithee, now unaffiliated with the campaign and heads Georgetown’s Institute of Politics and Public Service.

“The general election is still going to be a challenge, and they need to be out there and organizing.”

Meantime, Sanders is still campaigning in states next up on the primary calendar, including Indiana and Oregon, as he seeks to

The Supreme Court on Friday refused to block Texas’ photo ID law, the strictest in the nation, from remaining in effect for now, but it left open the possibility of doing so this summer if a lower court challenge remains unresolved.

Civil rights groups who say the law discriminates against black and Hispanic voters had argued it should be blocked because it was struck down by a federal court in 2014 and a three-judge appeals court panel last year.

The Clinton campaign official wouldn’t give details on specifically where staff will be concentrated. However, those close to the campaign say the second wave is likely to hit states Barack Obama made competitive during his first White House run eight years ago, such as Indiana, North Carolina and Virginia. The campaign also already has a state director in Colorado.

“That is the starting point this time,” Elleithee said.

The opening, one of 15 that the company pledged last year to have in low-income or predominantly minority neighborhoods, might be the most high-profile step in CEO Howard Schultz’s campaign to address income and racial inequality in America.

Defense official: Russians buzzed U.S. plane in Baltic Sea Latest in series of encounters in region Jim Michaels @jimmichaels USA TODAY

A Russian SU-27 fighter jet intercepted a U.S. reconnaissance aircraft Friday morning in international waters in the Baltic Sea, according to a senior Defense official.

The aircraft flew along the American RC-135 and then did a barrel roll over the top of the aircraft, closing within 100 feet,

said the official, who was not authorized to speak publicly.

This is the latest in a series of close encounters with Russian aircraft operating in that area.

The United States has expressed concerns that these maneuvers can lead to mishaps or heightened escalations between the two forces.

Earlier this month, White House press secretary Josh Earnest said such incidents were a concern.

“This incident, as you won’t be surprised to hear, is entirely inconsistent with the professional norms of militaries operating in proximity to each other

in international waters and international airspace,” Earnest said. “Any peacetime military activity must be consistent with international law and norms and conducted with due regard for the rights of other nations and the safety of other aircraft and other vessels.

“There have been repeated incidents over the last year where the Russian military, including Russian military aircraft, have come close enough to each other, or have come close enough to other air and sea traffic, to raise serious safety concerns. And we continue to be concerned about this behavior.”

A Russian jet approached a U.S. RC-135, like this one, Friday.

Kosovo calling for international code Serbia blocks former region from getting dedicated phone number Valerie Plesch

Special for USA TODAY PRISTINA , KOSOVO As Europe’s newest nation, Kosovo has most of the symbols of other sovereign countries, such as a flag and a national anthem.

What it still doesn’t have is its own international calling code, a political — and economic — insult that infuriates people in this tiny nation of 1.8 million.

Callers who dial someone in Kosovo on a mobile phone must use the country code for either Monaco (377) or Slovenia (386).

Those international codes have forced Kosovo callers to pay more than $248 million in fees from 2000-2016 to telecom companies in those two countries, according to the Kosovo government.

Foreigners calling a land line in Kosovo must dial Serbia’s country code (381) — a frustrating holdover from when Kosovo was a Serbian province and the subject of mass killings and expulsions by the Serbs.

“It’s unfair,” said Fjollë Sha-

distinction. A total of 193 countries have their own code.

Kosovo declared its independence from Serbia in 2008, after a brutal war that ended in 1999. The young Balkan nation actually was assigned its own code (383) in 1981 — while part of what was then Yugoslavia — by the International Telecommunications Union, a United

“It’s just a number, but it represents us in the world. ... It’s like your own flag or anthem.”

Fjollë Shaqiri, 20, a psychology student at the University of Pristina

VALERIE PLESCH FOR USA TODAY

Prepaid phone cards for mobile operators are sold along with cigarettes in downtown Pristina, Kosovo. qiri, 20, a psychology student at the University of Pristina.

“We’re independent. We’re part of the international world.

We’re in Europe.”

The last country to receive its own telephone code was South Sudan in 2011, which became the world’s newest nation three years after Kosovo held that

Nations agency.

But Serbia still does not recognize Kosovo’s independence and so far has blocked Kosovo from using its own country code. The two nations did sign a telecommunications agreement in August, but Serbia has failed twice to submit a letter to the telecommunications union stating it would not pose any obstacles to Kosovo’s receiving

a dedicated international code.

Serbia doesn’t want to send that letter until it sets up a Serbian telecommunications company in Kosovo, another part of the deal — and sticking point — that requires approval from Kosovo’s government, according to the Serbia Office for Kosovo, which deals with its former province.

Djurdja Djukic, a researcher at Civic Initiatives, a democracy and civil rights group in the Serbian capital of Belgrade, calls her country’s resistance to Kosovo’s dialing code a “war with symbols.”

She said blocking the change is Serbia’s way to minimize “the picture of Kosovo as an independent state on this symbolic level.”

A country code is not just a number for people in Kosovo who shed blood for their country’s independence.

“It’s a big deal,” said Edita Tahiri, Kosovo’s chief negotiator with the European Union.

“It’s a symbol that means a lot,” said Shaqiri, the college student. “It’s just a number, but it represents us in the world. ...

It’s like your own flag or anthem.”

Supreme Court denies bid to block law for 2nd time v CONTINUED FROM 1B

prepare voters for the November elections.

“The court recognizes the time constraints the parties confront in light of the scheduled elections in November 2016,” the oneparagraph order stated.

The law’s challengers cheered the action, even though it didn’t give them everything they sought. “We’re very encouraged that the U.S. Supreme Court recognizes the time constraints involved in this case,” said Gerry Hebert, executive director of the Campaign Legal Center.

It was the second time the high court had refused to block the law. In October 2014, the justices allowed Texas to enforce it in its pending November elections.

That order was not signed, but Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg filed a blistering six-page dissent, joined by Justices Sonia Sotomayor and Elena Kagan.

“The greatest threat to public confidence in elections in this case is the prospect of enforcing a purposefully discriminatory law, one that likely imposes an unconstitutional poll tax and risks denying the right to vote to hundreds of thousands of eligible voters,” Ginsburg said at the time.

The law is the strictest in the nation, permitting only certain types of photo ID at the polls.

Gun licenses are included; college IDs are not. It was enacted to cut down on in-person voter fraud, but critics said only two people were convicted of impersonating

others at the polls during a recent 10-year period.

A federal district judge in Corpus Christi originally struck down the law in 2014 after a twoweek trial. Judge Nelva Gonzales Ramos ruled it was passed by the Texas state Legislature in 2011 with a “discriminatory purpose” and could disenfranchise about 600,000 voters, a disproportionate number of whom are black or Hispanic. Days later, a threejudge panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 5th Circuit blocked Ramos’ order from taking effect while the state appealed, and the Supreme Court upheld that ruling. As a result, the photo ID requirement has been used in state and local elections despite continuing challenges.

A federal appeals court panel agreed last August the law was discriminatory but urged the sides to come up with a compromise plan. Last month, the full appeals court decided to rehear the case, now scheduled for May. Civil rights groups had asked the Supreme Court to stop the law from being implemented in the meantime, out of concern preparations for the November elections might be too advanced to change the rules without sowing confusion among voters.

“Waiting those several months could be fatal,” opponents argued in their brief to the high court.

“Texas voters should not be forced to forfeit their right to vote in yet another election.”

Texas had urged the justices to let the law stand during the appeals process. Solicitor General Scott Keller noted the appeals court’s three-judge panel, while striking down the law as discriminatory, also ruled it was not passed with that intent and did not constitute a poll tax.

“Voter-ID laws are legitimate means to combat election fraud and safeguard voter confidence,” Keller argued.

The Texas law originally was blocked by federal officials shortly after taking effect in 2011, under a section of the Voting Rights Act requiring mostly Southern states to clear proposed voting changes with the federal government. The Supreme Court struck down that requirement in June 2013, freeing state officials to reinstate the law.

TIM A. PARKER FOR USA TODAY

Kenia Randolph said that before she landed a job with Starbucks, she found many potential employers reluctant to give her a chance.

Companies pledge to hire urban youth v CONTINUED FROM 1B

munity investments, told USA TODAY as workers put the final touches on the Ferguson store.

“This is about doing good business.”

Schultz in the past has spoken out on hot button issues, such as support for legalizing same-sex marriage and breaking gridlock in Washington politics. But in the aftermath of high-profile encounters between police and African-American men and women, including the incident in this St. Louis suburb, Schultz turned his attention to issues of race and economic inequity.

The CEO, who grew up in a New York City housing project and credits much of his success on winning a college football scholarship, took flak for an awkward attempt last year at having baristas spur conversations with customers about race.

While the company quickly scrapped that plan, Schultz turned his focus — and that of his family foundation — to the issue of youth unemployment that disproportionately affects minority commumillion nities.

Some 5.5 Americans ages 16 to 24 aren’t working or in school.

In addition to launching the plan to open 15 stores in minority communities, Schultz recruited more than 30 other major companies to join Starbucks in pledging to hire 100,000 such disconnected youth by 2018.

At the Ferguson store, all but a couple of members of the opening day staff come from within a 5mile radius of the shop. Starbucks used a local, minority-owned contractor to build the shop, and created a multi-use space within the store that they will lend to nonprofits, including the Urban League of Metropolitan St. Louis, to conduct job training programs.

Starbucks also entered into a partnership with an AfricanAmerican baker from Ferguson whose business was damaged in a second round of unrest in 2014 after the St. Louis County prosecutor announced that Darren Wilson, the police officer who shot

Brown, would not be indicted.

Natalie DuBose, the owner of Natalie’s Cakes and More, has grown her staff from six to 22 employees since she started supplying caramel cake for more than 30 Starbucks locations in the St. Louis region. Her 700-square-foot bakery in downtown Ferguson is buzzing around-the-clock most days as she and her employees keep up with their Starbucks orders while still making cakes for their regular customers.

“It shows that people still care,” DuBose said of Starbucks’ launch in Ferguson. “After all the media has gone back to their homes, there is still somebody that cares and that is still watching.”

her a chance.

When Randolph applied for her first entry-level job, she said some potential employers asked questions about her Afro.

“They said it was unprofessional,” she said. She now wears her hair in braids.

Randolph said she thinks young black men have it tougher. Data reinforce her observations.

In the St. Louis region, there are about 48,000 unemployed people in the 16-24 age range.

About half are black men.

“I think there is also some concern and skepticism of you (from prospective employers) if you come from some of the neighborhoods around here,” said Cook,

“This isn’t charity. This is about doing good business.”

Rodney Hines, Starbucks director of community investments

Starbucks recruited Cordell Lewis, a local man with deep ties to the area, to serve as the store manager.

Lewis, 37, said growing up in a household where there was drug abuse led to a shaky environment during his teen years. But when he was 15, a high school coach took a deep interest in him and helped get him on the right path.

He went to Missouri State University, where he walked on to the football team and later won a football scholarship. If not for that coach, Lewis said his life could have gone on a very different path.

Lewis said his hope is that he can make that same kind of impact on some of the young people he will manage.

“My No. 1 goal was to have a diverse team,” Lewis said. “We have all walks in this building — African-American, Asian, white, male, female, gay, straight. Religious affiliations that go all over the place.

That is Ferguson, that is these small communities, and I want us to really represent that.”

Randolph, who lives in neighboring Florissant and was recruited to be part of the Ferguson project, said she found many potential employers reluctant to give

who lived out of his car at one point this winter.

Lemons said her pay is more important than ever now that her father is incarcerated. But the work is also providing her with something else.

“It’s like a getaway for me,” said Lemons, who lives in Ferguson and is helping support some of her siblings. “Although, I still have to go home and deal with whatever else is going on. I don’t feel like there is anything negative going on when I’m at work.”

Michael McMillan, president and CEO of the Urban League of Metropolitan St. Louis, said Starbucks and a handful of other big corporations — including Anheuser-Busch InBev, Emerson Electric and Walgreens — deserve credit for investing in Ferguson and other predominantly African-American communities in the St. Louis region.

“But, as a whole, if you look across urban America, there has been disinvestment in urban communities and communities of color from our major corporations and retailers,” McMillan said. “I applaud Starbucks for being willing to do something. … But we need more.”

FACT CHECK TRUMP’S FOREIGN POLICY SPEECH D’Angelo Gore, Eugene Kiely and Lori Robertson

March, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

That’s certainly not empty, but the number is a drop of 27% from December 1993, the month before NAFTA took effect, when there were 16.8 million manufacturing jobs. The peak in that 22year span was in March and April 1998, with 17.6 million manufacturing jobs. Overall jobs, however, have gone up 28% since December 1993, from 112.3 million to 143.8 million. (The civilian labor force — those working or looking for work, over age 16 — during this time frame has gone up by 23%, or 29.3 million people.)

l FactCheck.org

In his foreign policy speech Wednesday in Washington, D.C., Donald Trump claimed that “now ISIS is making millions and millions of dollars a week selling Libya oil.” But an expert on Libya’s oil operations told us there’s no evidence the Islamic State is producing or selling oil out of that country.

Trump also repeated false and misleading claims we have vetted before on NAFTA, the Iraq War and the U.S. trade deficit: uTrump said NAFTA “literally emptied our states of our manufacturing and our jobs.” Actually, economic studies say NAFTA’s impact on U.S. jobs has been small. uTrump claimed he was “totally against” the Iraq War and warned “that it would destabilize the Middle East.” There is no public record of him being against the war before it started. uTrump said President Obama “crippled us” with “a huge trade deficit.” Actually, the trade deficit has gone down under Obama. uTrump also criticized Hillary Clinton’s response to the Benghazi attacks on Sept. 11, 2012. We address one of the Benghazi claims below, and in a separate article — “Trump on Clinton’s ‘3 a.m. Call’ ” — we write about Trump’s claim that Clinton failed to take charge during the Benghazi attacks, and instead “decided to go home and sleep.” The evidence shows Clinton was actively involved in responding to the attacks, and subsequent investigations concluded the government response was appropriate.

IRAQ WAR

CHIP SOMODEVILLA, GETTY IMAGES

Donald Trump criticized President Obama and Democratic presidential front-runner Hillary Clinton in his speech.

ISIS AND LIBYAN OIL

Trump identified what he called “five main weaknesses in our foreign policy.” In the last of his five points, Trump said, “America no longer has clear understanding of our foreign policy goals.” He cited Libya as an example.

Trump: “And now ISIS is making millions and millions of dollars a week selling Libya oil. And you know what? We don’t blockade, we don’t bomb, we don’t do anything about it. It’s almost as if our country doesn’t even know what’s happening, which could be a fact and could be true.”

Claudia Gazzini, a senior analyst for Libya with the International Crisis Group, told us the Islamic State’s strategy thus far has largely been to disrupt oil operations in Libya rather than to try and make a profit off of them.

(She referred to the Islamic State in her emails as IS, rather than ISIS, as Trump calls the terrorist group that is occupying Syria and parts of Iraq.)

“IS adopted a hit-and-run strategy aimed at putting oil facilities off line in order to deprive

the Libyan state from obtaining revenues,” Gazzini wrote in an email to FactCheck.org.

She previously told our colleagues at the Washington Post Fact Checker and PolitiFact.com that “there is no evidence that they are pumping out the crude oil and certainly no evidence that they are trading it.”

(Incidentally, the State Department in December estimated that ISIS was making $500 million a year on oil from ISIS-controlled oil fields in Syria.)

NAFTA AND JOBS

Trump claimed the North American Free Trade Agreement “has been a total disaster for the United States” and has “literally emptied our states of our manufacturing and our jobs.” Actually, economic studies say the impact on U.S. jobs has been small.

Trump clearly engages in hyperbole in saying the trade agreement between the U.S., Canada and Mexico has “literally emptied our states” of manufacturing and jobs. There were 12.3 million manufacturing jobs in the U.S. in

Trump said he was “totally against the war in Iraq, very proudly, saying for many years that it would destabilize the Middle East.” There is no evidence that Trump opposed the Iraq War before it started, let alone him saying “it would destabilize the Middle East.” In fact, in a Sept. 11, 2002, interview — about six months before the war — Trump was asked by radio shock jock Howard Stern if he supported going to war with Iraq. Trump halfheartedly responded, “Yeah, I guess so,” as first reported by BuzzFeed.

The war started on March 19, 2003. In our timeline of Trump’s public statements on the Iraq War in 2002 and 2003, we found that Trump had a financial interest in opposing it in the days leading up to the war. But there is no instance in which he spoke against going to war. The first definitive instance we could find was on Sept. 11, 2003, about six months after the war started, in which Trump said in a TV interview: “I would have fought terrorism but not necessarily Iraq.”

Trump was an early critic of the war, but he expressed concerns about the cost — not that “it would destabilize the Middle East.” On July 1, 2003, less than four months after the war started, Trump said in a TV interview that he would “love to see” U.S. cities and states “get some of the money that’s going toward Iraq.”

Trump’s opposition to the war

was well-documented by 2004.

U.S. TRADE DEFICIT

Trump said Obama “crippled us” with “a huge trade deficit.” Actually, the trade deficit has gone down under Obama, as we wrote earlier this month. In 2015, the U.S. trade deficit for goods and services was $539.8 billion — down 24% from $708.7 billion in 2008, according to the Bureau of Economic Analysis. Obama took office in January 2009.

Trump also exaggerated when he claimed “our manufacturing trade deficit with the world is now approaching $1 trillion a year.” Trump is referring to the trade deficit for manufactured goods (excluding services), and that deficit was $759.3 billion, according to the BEA. That’s not quite “approaching $1 trillion.”

BENGHAZI ATTACKS

Trump said, “Clinton blames it all on a video, an excuse that was a total lie, proven to be absolutely a total lie.” Our timeline on Benghazi shows the Obama administration, including Clinton, initially cited the release of an anti-Muslim video by a Florida pastor as a possible reason for the attacks on the Benghazi diplomatic facility and CIA annex on Sept. 11, 2012. However, it also shows Clinton was quicker than other top administration officials — including Obama — to call it a terrorist attack.

In a statement issued at about 10 p.m. on the day of the attack, Clinton said “some have sought to justify this vicious behavior as a response to inflammatory material posted on the Internet.”

About an hour later, she sent an email to her daughter, Chelsea, that read: “Two of our officers were killed in Benghazi by an al Qaeda-like group.” On Sept. 21 — 10 days after the attack — Clinton said “(w)hat happened in Benghazi was a terrorist attack.”

On Oct. 15, Clinton, in an interview on CNN, blamed the “fog of war” when asked why the administration initially claimed the attack began as a spontaneous demonstration in response to the anti-Muslim video.

An attack on a mosque in a government-held part of Aleppo resulted in 15 deaths Friday as the Syrian government and its allies announced both a planned ceasefire in the country’s west and expansion of operations around the city.

Rebel forces shelled the Malla Khan mosque after Friday prayers in the government-controlled neighborhood of Bab al-Faraj district, The Associated Press reported, citing Syrian state TV. The death toll from Thursday’s airstrike on a hospital in the re-

bel-held area of the city rose to 50, according to Doctors Without Borders, which helped run the hospital with the International Committee of the Red Cross.

The dead included six medical staff and patients, the aid group said Friday.

U.S. officials said the strike appeared to have been carried out by the Syrian air force and fit a pattern of Syrian and Russian airstrikes on civilian infrastructure.

Airstrike on Afghan hospital not war crime, Pentagon says It was a mistake, but ‘they were attempting to do the right thing’ Jim Michaels @jimmichaels USA TODAY

The U.S. attack on a hospital in Afghanistan last year was not a war crime but was the result of a series of equipment failures and human errors that occurred during intense combat, a top commander said Friday.

“This I will highlight to you was an extreme situation,” Army Gen. Joseph Votel, the head of U.S. Central Command, said during a briefing to release a 3,000page investigation of the incident, which killed 42 people.

He said the crew did not know they were firing on a hospital and when they discovered the mistake, 30 minutes later, they immediately ceased the attack.

The military has disciplined 16 military personnel, including a general officer, for their role in last year’s mistaken airstrike, Votel said. The punishments are considered administrative and range from reassignments to letters of reprimand or formal counseling. The action does not include courts-martial, which are for more serious criminal charges. The military said it would not release the names of those punished, since they only WASHINGTON

took administrative action.

The airstrike occurred during intense fighting in Kunduz, after Taliban militants had seized the city last fall. A U.S. team of Special Forces soldiers rushed to the city to support Afghan forces in a desperate battle to eject the militants from the city in northern Afghanistan. By the time of the airstrike they had been engaged in heavy combat for five consecutive days, the investigation said.

“This I will highlight to you was an extreme situation.”

Army Gen. Joseph Votel, head of U.S. Central Command

An AC-130 gunship, which can be armed with 105mm howitzers and Gatling guns, was dispatched on Oct. 3 in response to a request for help from Afghan forces who planned to attack a building that Taliban militants had seized.

The U.S. commander in Kunduz authorized the support under his authority to approve strikes made in self defense, Votel said. Both the U.S. team and the Afghan forces they were supporting were under attack from militants.

The equipment problems started when the gunship was flying to Kunduz and experienced a failure with its communications system that prevented the flight crew from getting updates.

Once the plane arrived over Kunduz it was targeted by a sur-

face to air missile, requiring it to take evasive maneuvers and then fly to a safer location away from the city center.

The Afghan forces provided the correct grid coordinates for the intended target to the Special Forces team, who then relayed the position to the aircraft. But when the flight crew entered the coordinates they were directed to an empty field. The crew then attempted to locate the target visually. The hospital’s structure was similar to the target and about 400 yards from it.

The hospital, operated by Doctors Without Borders, an international aid organization, was on a “no-strike list” database, but the air crew did not have access to the information.

At 2:08 a.m. the aircraft began firing on the hospital. About 10 minutes later hospital personnel notified U.S. government representatives that the hospital was taking fire. It was another 20 minutes before the information got to the aircraft. They immediately stopped firing. The aircrew had thought they were firing on the intended target, Votel said.

“They were attempting to do the right thing,” Votel said.

Votel also said the U.S. had no involvement in an airstrike on a hospital in Aleppo operated by Doctors Without Borders and the International Committee of the Red Cross. Dozens were killed Thursday. The U.S. blamed the strike on the regime of Syrian President Bashar Assad.

L awrence J ournal -W orld - USA TODAY SATURDAY, APRIL 30, 2016

After initially moving higher, the Canadabased company’s stock resumed a monthslong plunge, closing down 5.4% at $33.36.

Kevin McCoy @kmccoynyc USA TODAY

Embattled drugmaker Valeant Pharmaceuticals moved to clean house Friday, reporting more investigations of its business practices, overhauling its board of directors and averting a potential technical default by filing its overdue 2015 annual report.

After initially moving higher after the news, the Canada-based company’s stock resumed a months-long plunge, closing down 5.4% at $33.36. Valeant shares have lost nearly 87% of their value since early August.

Morningstar financial analyst Michael Waterhouse said Valeant’s leadership changes were “likely a step in the right direction to restore investor credibility.” But he cautioned that the drugmaker’s first-quarter earnings “will likely be ugly.”

Valeant’s annual report said the North Carolina Department of Justice in March issued a legal demand for production, marketing, distribution, sale, pricing and patient assistance records for three decades-old medications whose prices spiked after the drugmaker acquired them.

The request focused on heart drugs Nitropress and Isuprel, along with Cuprimine, used to treat Wilson disease, a rare ailment that if left untreated can cause a fatal buildup of copper.

The company’s decision to hike prices on the three drugs drew sharp criticism — and statements of regret from departing Valeant CEO J. Michael Pearson — during a Wednesday hearing by the Senate Special Committee on Aging.

Additionally, Valeant said it received an April 12 request letter from the Autorité des marchés financiers, the regulator for Québec’s financial markets, for records of the company’s previous ties with Philidor Rx Services, a specialty pharmacy.

The New Jersey State Bureau of Securities similarly served Valeant with a subpoena for Phili-

PERRIGO

dor-related records on April 20, the drugmaker’s annual report disclosed.

Valeant’s stock plunge resulted in part from contentions in an October report by short-seller Andrew Left’s Citron Research that the drugmaker partnered with Philidor to create “a network of phantom pharmacies” that would steer pharmacy benefit managers to the company’s more expensive medications.

Valeant denied the allegations but dropped Philidor and appointed a special board committee to review the relationship.

The panel’s findings prompted restatement of $58 million in 2014 fiscal year revenue, reduced that year’s net income by $33 million and cut earnings per share by 9 cents a share, the company’s annual report confirmed.

The drugmaker also disclosed that Texas investigators in May 2014 served a civil investigative demand for records related to the amounts the state’s Medicaid program paid in reimbursements for Valeant’s Bausch & Lomb eye care division dating to 1995.

Valeant said it was cooperating

Joseph Papa is leaving as CEO of Perrigo to take over at Valeant.

with the investigations.

The company previously reported investigations by two congressional committees, including the Senate panel, as well as the Securities and Exchange Commission and federal prosecutors in Massachusetts and New York.

Friday’s annual report provided more details on those investigations, disclosing that they focus on Valeant’s drug pricing and distribution policies, the scrapped Philidor relationship, financial assistance the company offered to patients and data the drugmaker submitted to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services.

Separately, Valeant said the imminent arrival of new CEO Joseph Papa, the former chief executive of health care firm Perrigo, will be accompanied by a board shake up. Howard Schiller, the former chief financial offer who previously refused the firm’s request that he give up his board seat, won’t seek re-election.

Five current independent directors also will leave. Five other independent directors who were named to the board in the last year, including billionaire hedge fund manager William Ackman, have been nominated for election, Valeant said.

Three additional independent directors have been recommended for the board, Valeant said.

They are Argeris Karabelas, a pharmaceutical industry veteran who’s now a partner at life sciences venture firm Care Capital LLC; Russel Robertson, a vice president at financial services company BMO Financial Group; and Amy Wechsler, a dermatologist in New York City.

Valeant said Friday’s filing of its annual report, known as a 10-K, staved off the threat that it could face default on portions of about $30 billion in bonds.

“The default under our senior note indentures arising from the failure to timely file the form 10-K was cured in all respects,” Valeant said in a statement. “In addition, the company remains in full compliance with its credit agreement.”

In Battle of Seattle, Amazon pulling away from Microsoft Surging online retailer trails only Apple in revenue John Shinal

@johnshinal Special for USA TODAY

With Amazon raising its revenue forecast for the current quarter, the online retailing giant is leaving fellow Seattle-area tech giant Microsoft in the dust in terms of annual sales.

It’s also closing in on a certain Cupertino, Calif.-based seller of smartphones, the heavyweight in tech sales.

Amazon’s bullish prediction makes Wall Street’s full-year estimates more of a lock, and that view is a sweet one for growth investors.

Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos is expected to boost the company’s THE NEW TECH ECONOMY

For Microsoft, however, the contrast is stark and a good illustration of EPA how growth in the sector has Amazon CEO moved from Jeff Bezos hardware, software and chip companies to Internet firms selling goods or advertising online.

The maker of Office and Word is expected to post a 2% decline in revenue this fiscal year, which ends in June. In fiscal 2017, it’s seen growing just 4% off that lower base.

The upshot?

By next year Amazon is seen generating $156 billion in sales, or nearly two-thirds more than Microsoft’s $95.4 billion.

So while Bill Gates helped put the Seattle area on the map as a U.S. tech hub, Bezos now runs the largest tech company in the state of Washington, by far, in terms of sales.

Alphabet, meanwhile, added $3 billion in new sales and Facebook $1.84 billion.

That means that while Google and Facebook began today valued by stock investors more than Amazon, there’s only one tech firm still larger than Amazon by revenue.

That would be Apple, which in spite of its recent iPhone slowdown, is still expected to post revenue of more than $200 billion for this year and next.

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

It didn’t take long for Wall Street doomsayers to reappear and start warning of trouble ahead for the U.S. stock market.

Investor sentiment took a dark turn Thursday. Tech stocks got crushed after billionaire activist Carl Icahn said he had dumped all of his shares of iPhone maker Apple, and the broader market got spooked by the decision of the Bank of Japan not to inject more stimulus into its low-growth economy and U.S. economic growth in the first quarter coming in weak at 0.5%.

The selling continued Friday with the Dow Jones industrial average falling another 57 points following its 211-point plunge Thursday.

Facts about America’s investors who use SigFig tracking services:

Wall Street quickly took notice and began wondering aloud if the stock market, which has been in big-time rally mode since the Feb. 11 lows and climbed within a percentage point or two of alltime highs, is headed for another rough patch.

Incoming Wall Street research the past two days has warned of possible trouble ahead.

Icahn not only bailed out of Apple, but he also warned of a “day of reckoning” for stocks.”

Friday, money manager Gary Kaltbaum of Kaltbaum Capital Management told clients “there is a darn good chance that Thursday’s price action marks the high for now.”

Added David Rosenberg, chief strategist at Gluskin Sheff: “Another day of risk-off and one can legitimately wonder whether a renewed correction phase ... is in motion.”

Oil giant faring well, but drop in 2016 predicted

Q: Is Exxon Mobil a good investment?

Matt Krantz

mkrantz@usatoday.com USA TODAY

A: Exxon Mobil’s massive size has allowed it to handle the oil price implosion better than many of its peers. But that still doesn’t mean it’s a stock worth betting on.

Given how the price of oil has cratered 21% over the past year, the fact shares of the biggest U.S. oil company are essentially unchanged is somewhat impressive.

Exxon shares have actually outperformed the Standard & Poor’s 500 over the past year, which has fallen 1.5%. On top of the relative safety of the stock, Exxon Mobil is currently paying a dividend yield of 3.4%, which is higher than the roughly 2% yield of the market.

The company’s first-quarter results also offered some hope to investors. The company reported an adjusted profit of 43 cents a share in the first quarter, which topped expectations by 39%.

Shares rose 37 cents, or 0.4%, to $88.40 on the news.

But here’s the problem. Adjusted profit is expected to fall by more than a third this year before bouncing in 2017. Investors also know picking the bottom in oil prices — and oil stocks — is risky business.

Analysts still rate Exxon a “hold” and think the stock will be worth $84.21 a share, or 5% lower than it is now.

Exxon reports lowest quarterly profit in more than a decade Mike Snider @mikesnider USA TODAY

ExxonMobil, the world’s largest non-state-owned oil company, saw steep revenue and profit declines in the first quarter but still beat Wall Street expectations.

The Irving, Texas-based Exxon on Friday reported first-quarter earnings per share of 43 cents, compared with the 30 cents estimated by analysts polled by S&P Global Market Intelligence.

That’s down 63% from $1.17 per share last year.

SAUL LOEB, AFP/GETTY IMAGES

Exxon’s net income of $1.8 billion slightly missed the $1.9 billion that analysts expected — and is the energy company’s lowest quarterly profit in more than a decade, according to Bloomberg.

Declining profits have been the norm lately for energy companies as they bear the brunt of low oil prices worldwide. Chevron on Friday reported a first-quarter net loss of $725 million, with earnings of 39 cents per share, compared with net profit of $2.57 billion, or $1.37 per share, in the same period last year. Its first-quarter revenue of $23.6 billion, however, surpassed S&P Global Market Intelligence estimates of $22.7 billion.

Wall Street had low expectations for the oil giants after U.S.produced crude hit a 13-year low of less than $27 per barrel during

the quarter. Oil has since risen to more than $46, thanks to discussions about an OPEC production freeze and a weaker U.S. dollar.

“I think expectations were definitely low due to oil prices, which directly affect these companies’ income statements,” said Luana Siegfried, equity research associate at Raymond James & Associates. She noted that Exxon and Chevron had significant tax benefits in the quarter, “helping to alleviate what would have been worse results otherwise.”

Exxon said it had focused on cutting costs to help make up for lower energy prices and refining

margins. Capital expenditures were down 33%, to $5.1 billion, while production increased 1.8%, to the equivalent of 4.3 million barrels of oil daily.

“The organization continues to respond effectively to challenging industry conditions, capturing enhancements to operational performance and creating margin uplift despite low prices,” Exxon Mobil Chairman and CEO Rex W. Tillerson said in a statement.

Exxon’s first-quarter financials came three days after Standard & Poor’s downgraded ExxonMobil’s corporate credit and long-term debt rating from AAA to AA+.

Bill Keveney @billkev USA TODAY

BEVERLY HILLS Royal adviser Davos Seaworth has a strategic problem: He has no king to advise.

In last week’s sixth-season premiere of HBO’s Game of Thrones (Sundays, 9 p.m. ET/PT), the smuggler-turned-counselor, who is played by Liam Cunningham, knew his king, Stannis Baratheon, was dead. So was the man he might have served, Night’s Watch Lord Commander Jon Snow (Kit Harington).

“It looks like he’s out of a job,” Cunningham tells USA TODAY. “Stannis is gone. (Davos’) reason for being in the show is gone. I think people would have liked seeing Jon Snow with someone on his side, and Davos seemed like the right man in the right place at the right time. And then, (Jon) is gone.”

Still, Davos finds a way to serve Jon, hunkering down at Castle Black with the commander’s remaining loyalists to protect his remains from murderous Night’s Watch traitors. He even sees the possibility of enlisting Red Priestess Melisandre (Carice van Houten), a competing Stannis adviser whose supernatural abilities — shadow baby, anyone? — he has witnessed firsthand.

“From the get-go this season, there’s an immediate threat to his life,” Cunningham says. “Melisandre is there as well, and the powers she has may prove to be very useful.”

The 54-year-old Irishman, who worked in rural electrification in Africa before starting an acting career 25 years ago, has appeared in films including Hunger and War Horse. He initially wasn’t attracted to Thrones’ fantasy world, which he entered in Season 2. “The idea of doing something with dragons and shadow babies is not something that immediately grabs me as an actor,” Cunningham says.

“When I read it, I (realized) this doesn’t have anything to do with dragons. This is an extraordinary tale of betrayal, power, legacy, paranoia, family.”

He has a particular soft spot for Davos, a good man — despite his smuggling background — who rose from poverty in Flea Bottom, a tough neighborhood in the

shadow of Lannister family wealth and power in King’s Landing. “Davos has more nobility in his middle finger than all of the Lannisters put together,” Cunningham says. “This guy has a loy-

alty and decency about him.

He’s a very good strategic thinker and will tell you what needs to be said whether you want to hear him or not. He’s not driven through ego. There’s a similarity between him and Robert Duvall’s character, Tom Hagen, in The Godfather.”

While working for Stannis, Davos formed a special bond with the king’s daughter, Shireen, shunned by some because of her disfiguring Greyscale skin condition. The death of the girl, burned at the stake on Stannis’s order and Melisandre’s advice, troubles Davos.

“That was a beautiful relationship. It was absolutely dreadful what happened to that character,

but dramatically brilliant,” Cunningham says.

This season, Davos also warns of the larger threat, the powerful White Walkers and their legion of zombies north of the wall.

“I compare it to climate change. These silly, little, horrible, disgusting wars are going on between these little territories and nobody sees the danger coming that will wipe us all out,” Cunningham says.

That is bad news for Westeros but, combined with the duty to protect Jon Snow’s lifeless body, it may provide a useful purpose for the former Stannis adviser: “While appearing to have no reason to be there, this is a very busy season for Davos.”

MUSIC

Jaleesa M. Jones

COOPER BY ROY ROCHLIN, FILMMAGIC

With his benefactors gone, ‘it looks like royal adviser is out of a job’

A: When I first came on, I sent them a bunch of songs that I had written inspired by what I knew about the characters, and they went on to write episodes around a lot of those songs. In other instances, they’d come with a scenario, like, “OK, so here’s the details of the episode and at this peak, we need a song that says that,” and I’d sit with the screenwriters or with Jussie.

Q: WHAT WAS IT LIKE RECORDING WITH JUSSIE?

A: He sacrifices himself for the

music. Jussie will be on some just-got-off-a-flight-from-theother-side-of-America-been-upfor-three-days-but-let’s-get-thissong-going stuff. I respect that.

There’s definitely been some battle-esque sessions. You know, I write from a passionate place, and sometimes when you’re writing from a place of passion, you don’t think, “OK, wait this note might be too high.” So, there were a few songs we recorded that proved to be a bit more difficult than others.

Q: WHAT ABOUT SERAYAH MCNEILL (TIANA)?

A: I’ve only gotten the opportunity to work with her one time in the studio thus far, but one thing that I dig about the both of them is the humility that they have. No one came in with an ego or an attitude like, “I’m on this TV show!

What the hell can you tell me?” I was pleasantly surprised when they were on the same page.

Q: HOW DO YOU FEEL EMPIRE HAS SHAPED THE INDUSTRY IN REAL LIFE?

A: Empire’s found a way to make people buy music again. We’re in a time right now where music’s being consumed more than ever before but people ... feel like they don’t need to pay for it. ... But with Empire, what they’ve done is they’ve found a way to freak the

Q: WHO WOULD YOU LIKE TO SEE TAKE OVER THE COMPANY?

A: I’d definitely give my vote to Jussie. I feel like, of the three

(sons), he’s the most level-headed and the one with the most room to move forward.

And I feel like the music he’s trying to do vs. the music Hakeem’s trying to do has a little bit more legs. It’ll ... stand the test of time. I feel like Hakeem is talented, but he hasn’t found his voice yet.

A guide to GROWING PEPPERS Garden Variety

P

eppers are one of the easiest vegetables to grow in Kansas gardens, and there is a variety for just about every taste.

Whether you are an experienced pepper grower or trying them in the garden for the first time this year, a few simple tips can help beat the challenges of Kansas weather and soil and help select the variety best suited to your needs.

There are basically two types of peppers: sweet and hot. Sweet peppers are typically bell-shaped and hot peppers are more elongated, but there is crossover in both directions. Both types of peppers come in a range of colors, starting out green and ripening to red, yellow, orange, purple, white and even brown.

All types of peppers like warm weather and warm soil, so for whatever type you choose, have a little patience in planting.

Use a soil thermometer and transplant pepper seedlings into the garden when soil temperatures have reached 60 to 65 degrees. This is typically Please see PEPPERS, page 3C

How to use a spirit level

A

spirit level is the most common type of leveling device. Sometimes called a bubble level, the spirit level’s name is derived from its mineral spirit-filled vials.

The air bubble within the horizontal vial rests precisely in the center of the vial when the level’s edge is directly parallel with the earth’s surface. Follow these steps to determine if a surface is level.

Step 1: Keep the level dry and clean at all times. Check the edges of the level for nicks, dents, rust or dirt that would cause a false reading.

Step 2: Confirm the level is working properly by setting it on a flat surface. The bubble in the horizontal vial should be perfectly centered between the two vertical lines printed on the vial. Turn the level around so the back is now facing forward.

The bubble should still be in the center of the vial. Flip the level from end to end, so the top of the level is now on the bottom. The bubble should still rest in the center of the vial. If the level fails any of these tests, it can no longer be used.

Step 3: To determine whether a horizontal surface is level, set the level atop the surface with the horizontal vial parallel to the center of the surface. Look directly at the level, with your eyes at the same height as the vial. If the spirit

bubble is to the right of the vial lines, the surface slopes downward, right-to-left. If the bubble is to the left of the vial lines, the surface slopes downward, left-to-right. Make the necessary adjustments until the spirit bubble is perfectly centered between the vial lines.

Step 4: To determine whether a vertical surface is plumb, stand the level on end and press its length against the vertical surface so that the vertical vial is now horizontal at the top of the level.

Look directly at the now horizontal vial. If the bubble is perfectly centered between the vial lines, the vertical surface is plumb.

Step 5: To determine whether a surface is angled at a 45 degree incline, hold the level on the surface with the center horizontal vial parallel with the center of the surface.

The angled vial should now be horizontal. If the bubble is perfectly centered between the vial lines, the surface is angled at a 45 degree incline.

Associated Press

A winter trip to the “Isle of Enchantment,” Puerto Rico, left me feeling sorry for many of my houseplants back home.

The effects of steambath conditions there were dramatic. Crownof-thorn plants billowed out into full-bodied shrubs, lush with leaves throughout. Philodendrons clambered high into trees, embracing and completely hiding the trunks.

What a contrast dracaenas in the tropics make with "houseplant" dracaenas. Up north (I’m in New York State), dracaenas are reduced to little more than a few bare stems capped by tufts of leaves. The dracaenas that greeted me from planter boxes bordering an outdoor cafe in San Juan were heavily branched specimens clothed with leaves all along their stems.

In Puerto Rico, weeping figs soared to majestic proportions, humidity coaxing threadlike, aerial roots to drip from the branches and take root in the ground.

Except for where these roots were cut away to allow passage beneath

probe you push down into the potting soil is another way to know whether or not watering is needed.

You might also want to add some fertilizer to the water, because plants become hungrier this time of year.

Tropical plants are more at home and happier in springtime because there's more moisture in the air than during the winter. Turning down the thermostat increases the relative humidity, as does putting pebbles — and keeping them wet — in the saucers beneath the flowerpots.

Water should not come up above the bottom of the pot, but just cover the pebbles, replenished as needed.

Clustering plants together creates an oasis that looks tropical and envelops leaves in a cloud of humidity of their own making.

What tropical houseplants love best, though, is a summer vacation.

Once warm weather settles in reliably, move them outdoors.

Although it's hard to appreciate on cool, gray days of early spring, summers throughout most of the country vie with the tropics for heat and humidity.

Peppers CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1C

mid-May in the Lawrence area. Gardeners often think they will get produce more quickly if plants are in the ground earlier, but in reality cold soil temperatures can shock plants and stunt growth. Plants may also abort flowers in cool temperatures, leading to later production times.

Transplanting small plants is easier than starting plants from seed and is the most common way peppers are planted.

If you really want to start plants yourself, use heat mats and grow lights and be sure to start the seeds indoors about eight weeks before you plan to transplant them into the garden. (Maybe next year if you are running late on this one.)

Besides warmth, peppers prefer well-drained soil in full sun. Abundant organic matter helps with drainage and nutrient availability. A soil pH that is slightly acidic to neutral also allows for better nutrient availability to grow healthier plants. Containers are a great alternative to planting in the ground and good-quality potting mix is perfect to support plant growth.

Once the soil is warm enough and pepper plants are in place in the garden, water plants as needed until they establish. Mulch the surrounding soil with prairie hay, straw, compost or other organic matter to lessen temperature and moisture fluctuations over the roots. After the first few weeks, irrigate plants deeply and infrequently only.

For large plants, use a tomato cage or a stake to support the plant and keep peppers up out of the soil. Apply fertilizer

or incorporate additional organic matter every few weeks for best production.

Once peppers appear, they can be harvested at any point. Most gardeners wait until peppers reach a desired size, which varies with variety and personal taste. You may also wish to harvest some while they are green but full-grown, and leave some on the plant to ripen to their mature color.

The most common problem with peppers besides the effects of early planting is blossom end rot. Mulching around the plants and only watering deeply and infrequently will eliminate most blossom end rot issues.

Another concern is that plants may abort flower when temperatures get above 90 degrees. Although they will temporarily stop producing, plants typically recover and bloom again once temperatures drop.

Here are some varieties to grow, as recommended by Kansas State University: Green to red bell: Ace, Bell Boy, Jupiter, Lady Bell, Keystone Resistant

Giant, improved California Wonder varieties.

Green to yellow bell: Honeybell, Marengo, Golden Bell.

Yellow to red bell: Gypsy, Canary.

Green to orange bell: Valencia, Oriole.

Green to purple bell: Purple Bell, Purple Beauty.

Elongated sweet peppers: Sweet cherry, Pimento, Sweet Banana, many Italian types.

Jalapeno: El Paso, Coronado, Tam Jal. Other hot: Anaheim, Serrano, Red Chili, Super Chili, Habanero.

My personal favorites: Yummy — bite-sized sweet yellow bell, perfect for salads; Hungarian

Hot Wax — a hot banana pepper that is spicy and sweet; Big Red — 10-12 inch cayenne, easy to dry or roast.

Super hot varieties: Chiltepin or wild bird peppers — beadlike heirloom variety; Scotch bonnet — super hot habanero cousin; Bhut Jolokia — the ghost chile, hottest pepper in the world (difficult to grow).

KANSAS BASEBALL

Back on track?

Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

Lions quickly get back to work Nobody disputes that Shawnee Mission East is the team to beat in next month’s Class 6A state baseball playoffs, a feat that requires winning five games in a row and usually means knocking off one or both of Lawrence’s public high schools, never an easy challenge.

The Lancers played both Free State and Lawrence High this past week and split, defeating the Firebirds, 2-0, with ace lefty Joey Wentz on the mound and losing to LHS, 5-4, with Arkansas-bound righthander Zebulon Vermillion making the start. Luke Anderson, SME’s shortstop and third pitcher, is bound for Missouri.

Lions coach Brad Stoll knows all about baseball’s unwritten rules, such as never make the first or third out of an inning at third base. He has rewritten them and boiled his rules into two that are written in the dugout: 1. Play with risk; 2. So what? Next pitch.

“When you’re seeing an arm like that, your chances are probably fewer to truly barrel-up a ball because he’s pretty legit,” Stoll said of Vermillion. “You just have to find a way to manufacture some runs, and our 7, 8 and 9 holes yesterday were as big a part as anything.”

Ivan Hollins, Joe Harms and Alexander Guy made up the bottom third of a batting order that from the top reads Reese Carmona, Andrew Stewart, Brad Kincaid, Devin Lauts, Parker Kirkpatrick and Jacob Unruh, a nice blend of sophomores, juniors and seniors.

The Lions were back to work Friday, forced to take batting practice indoors because of the rain.

“All my message today was, if this defines our season, then I’m going to be disappointed,” Stoll said.

“We play Rockhurst on Monday. They don’t care that we beat them. We play Shawnee Mission Northwest on Tuesday. They don’t care that we beat them. It was fun. I’m proud as heck of ’em for the way they fought their way to a win, but if this is the best moment of our season, it’s been a disappointment.”

For Free State and Lawrence, state titles are always the goal in baseball. Three of the past 10 6A titles have

KANSAS SOPHOMORE MATT MCLAUGHLIN RUNS THE BASES during the Jayhawks’ 3-1 loss to Nebraska on Wednesday at Kauffman Stadium.

McLaughlin finds stroke just in time

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

A year ago as a freshman, Matt McLaughlin was one of the bright spots on a Kansas University baseball team that struggled to a last-place finish in the Big 12.

His .293 average ranked fourth on the team, he was fourth in doubles (eight), second in walks (26) and finished third with a .398 onbase percentage, all while handling the stress of adjusting to college baseball as a third baseman.

To say that more was expected from McLaughlin this season would be an understatement. And for the first 15 games of the season, more was what the Jayhawks got.

McLaughlin, now a short-

stop, opened the season on fire, hitting nearly .400 over the first few weeks and going 15 games before striking out.

That first strikeout came on March 15, during a 14-9 home loss to Murray State, and it started one of the worst slides of McLaughlin’s career.

It wasn’t necessarily the strikeout that brought on his struggles, but the 25game stretch that followed dropped McLaughlin’s average from .327 to .240. During that time, he hit just .163.

That was until Wednesday night at Kauffman Stadium, in Kansas City, Mo., where the Jayhawks rekindled their rivalry with former Big 12 foe Nebraska for one night. KU lost, 3-1, but McLaughlin finished 2-for-4 at the plate, his

first two-hit game since April 1. In a big-league park. Just in time for the stretch run of the Big 12 season.

“To do it here was big for me,” McLaughlin said. “I had some success last year, and I kind of see myself as one of the leaders of these guys.”

The San Jose, Calif., native kept that last part in mind throughout the nightmare month of April, particularly on defense.

“It’s been a go-to,” said McLaughlin of his solid defense at his natural position, where he has played every inning this season. “I’ve made some good plays this year when I’ve been struggling at the plate, and I’ve turned my attitude around because of it.

You have a bad punch-out, but then you go make a nice

Self: DeBruce Center ‘great’

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

One of the first things Bill Self did after returning to town from the last live period in recruiting was to check out the new 32,000-squarefoot DeBruce Center, which opened Monday.

“I think it’s great. Obviously, it’s not complete.

Three weeks from now, it’ll look different when all the exhibits and everything are done, but I think it’s a fabulous building for us and one Please see KEEGAN, page 3D that will attract many to

breakfast and lunch on this side of campus (in Courtside Cafe, which is open),” Self, Kansas University’s 13th-year basketball coach, said Friday.

He was speaking in Allen Fieldhouse from the Bill Self Basketball Fantasy Experience powered by ProCamps Worldwide.

The DeBruce Center actually is connected to the fieldhouse, though the passageway is not quite complete.

back-handed play in the hole, you’re still fired up going into your next at-bat.”

It’s not as if McLaughlin — who earned All-Big 12 honorable-mention honors while being named to the AllFreshman team last season — suddenly forgot how to hit. In fact, it was his desire to become an even better hitter that might have led to the slump.

“I kind of got away from my approach,” he said. “I’d always been a singles guy, get on base, draw a lot of walks, see a lot of pitches, and the next step in my development was turning into a guy that has a little more power. I got serious in the weight room and was hoping it would

COMMENTARY

Ole Miss biggest loser in draft

EAST

AMERICAN FOOTBALL CONFERENCE EAST

AMERICAN FOOTBALL CONFERENCE EAST SOUTH

By Jim Litke

NORTH FREE STATE HIGH TODAY WEST

AP Sports Columnist

Chicago — We won’t know who won Round 1 of the 2016 NFL Draft for a season or two.

But we already know the biggest loser.

That would be Ole Miss and coach Hugh Freeze, who began Thursday ready to celebrate three players being selected in that first round, then ended it by practically inviting NCAA investigators already snooping around campus to open a satellite office there.

At the center of that topsyturvy evening was Laremy Tunsil, a 6-foot-5, 310-pound left tackle with a checkered past and an uncertain future as the 13th pick of the Miami Dolphins. As he was waiting in the green room with other top prospects just ahead of the start of the draft, a video of Tunsil wearing a gas mask with a bong attached and smoking something, presumably marijuana, was released on his own Twitter account, which he subsequently claimed had been hacked.

Strange as that seemed — and it likely caused Tunsil to drop a half-dozen spots or more — it was only his warmup act. Not quite two hours later, his Instagram account — which he also said was hacked — served up screen shots of text messages purportedly between Tunsil and an assistant athletic director at Ole Miss in which the player asked for help paying rent and his mother’s utility bills.

If you guessed those might be a violation of NCAA rules, you’re right. Tunsil, who sat out the first seven games of his junior season after the NCAA ruled he received improper benefits — including the use of three loaner cars over a six-month period — probably knew that, too. And keep in mind that Ole Miss has already self-reported a handful of violations and been under scrutiny by NCAA gumshoes long enough for Freeze to liken the process to “a four-year colonoscopy.”

So when Tunsil was asked in his post-draft news conference about whether he took money at Ole Miss, his first response was “Nah, I wouldn’t say that.”

But less than a minute later, when the question was asked a second time — “Was it an exchange between you and your coach, for money?” — Tunsil replied, “I’d have to say yeah.”

Then came a follow-up question about the NCAA, but before Tunsil could answer, a woman from the NFL’s PR department slid between Tunsil and the microphone, curtly announced, “He has no more comments,” and shuttled the player out of the room and into another behind closed doors.

There, Tunsil was apparently given a different set of marching orders from representatives of his agent, Jimmy Sexton, who also happens to be the agent for Freeze, as well as newly minted Miami Dolphins coach Adam Gase. Talk about coincidence.

Ole Miss teammate Robert Nkemdiche called Tunsil’s drop “heartbreaking,” and he should know. A top-flight defensive tackle, Nkemdiche, like Tunsil, slipped a few rungs down the draft ladder and likely cost himself millions as well.

He, too, had a slip-up in his recent past — according to a police report, he fell 15 feet out of a hotel window while admittedly drunk last December, and a small amount of marijuana was found in his room.

1993 — Monica Seles, the top-ranked women’s player, is stabbed in the back during a changeover at the Citizen Cup in Hamburg, Germany. Guenter Parche, 38, reaches over a courtside railing and sticks a knife into the back of Seles.

1999 — About 3,000 fans wearing T-shirts that said, “$hare the wealth” to protest baseball economics at the Yankees-Royals game. The protesters turn their backs when the Yankees bat, then walk out of Kansas City’s Kauffman Stadium during the fourth inning. The Yankees had baseball’s top payroll at $85.05 million, and the Royals were 25th at $23.8 million.

been won by Lawrence schools: Free State won it in 2006, LHS in 2009, Free State last spring.

“There’s certainly enough pitching to get to the state tournament and do some damage, and there’s certainly enough offense to do it,” Stoll said. “We just need to get them both synced up.”

The Lions started the season 1-4 and improved to 8-7 with Thursday’s comeback victory.

Free State (12-3) has had consistently strong pitching led by the trio of Hunter Gudde, Trevor Munsch and Aaron Funk.

All three of the Firebirds’ losses have come by the same score, 2-0.

If Shawnee Mission East is the No. 1 team in 6A, then Free State has to be considered 1A. Lawrence just beat No. 1 and will have two cracks at 1A, at 5:30 p.m. May 9 at FSHS and at 7 p.m. May 12 at Hoglund Ballpark.

“Our whole message, no matter who we play is, you’re not playing who’s in the other dugout,” Stoll said. “Our whole thing is, you’re just playing the baseball.

Now, sometimes the baseball’s coming in at 88, 89, or 72, 73 (mph), but still you’re reacting to the ball and controlling what you can control, whether it’s Shawnee Mission East or Free State or whoever you’re playing.”

Sometimes the baseball has a mind of its own and bounces in funny ways. Some of those bounces will end seasons prematurely, even if luck has something to do with it. Nearly every year, at least one of Lawrence’s two high school baseball teams remains standing when the field shrinks to four teams. That’s not luck. That’s consistent excellence from a strong baseball town.

KANSAS UNIVERSITY SHORTSTOP MATT MCLAUGHLIN MAKES A LEAPING THROW to first for an out during the Jayhawks’ game against TCU in this photo from April 8 at Hoglund Ballpark. McLaughlin says his solid defense has allowed him not to be too discouraged by a recent offensive slump.

Kansas-OU baseball series altered Rainy conditions forced Kansas University to alter the schedule for its Big 12 baseball series with Oklahoma.

translate. It hadn’t in the first 15 games, but I was still finding ways to get on, my average was up there, and I was two hits a night. From there, I think I just got greedy having that success and wanted to do more and more, wanted to see a few more balls go over the fence and into the gaps.”

That shift in mindset created a monster. All of a sudden, the sleek, smooth, 6-foot-2 sophomore started swinging too hard, playing too big and trying to be something he wasn’t.

“This game, it’ll beat you up, and it really has the last month,” McLaughlin said. “But I’m trying to get back to that old approach, and staying within myself has been the biggest thing.”

Throughout his star sophomore’s slump, KU coach Ritch Price did his

best to stay positive. But even that was difficult for the Jayhawks’ alwayssunny skipper.

“It’s hard,” said Price.

“It’s been in his head.

You can watch the quality of his at-bats and tell how frustrated he’s been. ... Hopefully he got himself going (at The K), and he’ll have a great month and finish strong.”

Even if that’s what happens, the way Price sees it, McLaughlin’s bounceback goes well beyond the next few weeks. There’s a junior season still ahead and, after that, a stab at a pro career. Believe it or not, Price said McLaughlin’s recent slump should help both.

“I told him the other day, it’s going to prepare him for professional baseball,” said Price, whose team again sits in last place in the Big 12 at 3-8, 17-23-1 overall, and is in need of a winning streak of some kind during the final three weeks to keep its season alive.

“He’s gotta learn how to limit those swoons, because that’s what gets you released in the minor leagues, and he’s hoping to play for a long time.

“He’s a really good baseball player, and I’m sure he’s gonna finish on a high note. But this is a great lesson for him. It’s part of that learning process.”

Seattle (ap) — Felix Hernandez tied Jamie Moyer’s franchise record for career victories at 145 in the Seattle Mariners’ 1-0 triumph over Kansas City on Friday night, the Royals’ fourth straight loss.

Seth Smith provided the only run — and the only hit — for the Mariners, leading off the sixth inning with a home run to right off Royals starter Kris Medlen (1-2).

Hernandez (2-2), in his 11th season with the Mariners, was appearing in his 339th game, all starts.

Moyer appeared in 324 games for Seattle from 1996 to 2006.

Hernandez worked 72⁄3 innings, allowing five hits, walking three and striking out four. He threw a season-high 118 pitches.

Steve Cishek pitched the ninth inning to pick up his sixth save in as many opportunities. Center fielder Leonys Martin made a game-ending catch off Salvador Perez, crashing into the wall to preserve the victory.

Hernandez has put himself among the best first-month pitchers ever.

Dating to 1913 when ERA became an official stat in both leagues, Hernandez has the third-best April ERA (minimum 200 innings pitched) at 2.41.

He trails only Bob Feller (2.04) and Walter Johnson (2.21).

On April 23, Hernandez broke Randy Johnson’s club record for strikeouts. He has 2,170.

Despite playing down a player due to illness, Kansas picked up singles wins on four of five courts to finish off the Bears without having to compete in doubles.

MAJOR-LEAGUE ROUNDUP

Miami’s Conley flirts with no-hitter The Associated Press

National League Marlins 6, Brewers 3 Milwaukee — Marlins lefty Adam Conley threw no-hit ball for 72⁄3 innings before being pulled by manager Don Mattingly after 116 pitches, and Miami’s bullpen wound up holding off Milwaukee Brewers on Friday night.

Jonathan Lucroy blooped a single with one out in the ninth off reliever Jose Urena to break up the combo no-hit bid. The ball landed in right field just beyond the reach of diving second baseman Derek Dietrich.

The 25-year-old Conley (1-1) struck out seven and walked four.

Mets 13, Giants 1 New York — Yoenis Cespedes and New York broke loose for a teamrecord 12 runs in the third inning, rolling past San Francisco for a seventh straight victory.

Cespedes set a club mark with six RBIs in the inning, connecting for a two-run single off starter Jake Peavy (1-2) and a grand slam off reliever Mike Broadway that capped the outburst.

The spree made it an easy night for Steven Matz (3-1) in the opener of a three-game series between the last two NL champions.

SCOREBOARD 2016 NFL Draft

Charles Rex Arbogast/AP Photo

FORMER CHIEF TONY RICHARDSON ANNOUNCES KANSAS CITY’S SELECTION of Mississippi State’s Chris Jones as the 37th pick in the 2016 NFL Draft on Friday in Chicago.

Chiefs take DT Jones with their first pick Kansas City, Mo. (ap) — The Kansas City Chiefs spent most of the first two days of the NFL Draft stockpiling picks, but still found time to fill two of their biggest needs by grabbing a defensive tackle and cornerback.

The Chiefs took Mississippi State run-stuffer Chris Jones with the sixth pick of the second round on Friday night, then traded their other second-round pick to Tampa Bay. They received a third-round choice and two more picks and used the third-rounder on Notre Dame cornerback KeiVarae Russell.

Chiefs general manager John Dorsey began the draft Thursday night by sending a first-round selection to San Francisco for the No. 37 overall pick, plus selections in the fourth and sixth rounds. Now, they have three fourth-round picks and two choices each in the fifth and sixth rounds Saturday.

“Every draft is a little different that way,” Chiefs coach Andy Reid said. “(Dorsey) is working to gain picks here. He wanted to get a couple picks out of this thing.

I think he maneuvered

pretty well and kind of parked it in the third round, and I look forward to tomorrow. We have a whole load of them.”

As for Jones, the Chiefs did not invite him for a visit, making his selection a surprise.

“I didn’t think there was a chance I’d ever go to the Chiefs,” he said. “It was one of the last teams on my mind. But right now I’m very excited. A lot of mixed emotions going through my mind.”

The 6-foot-6, 308-pound Jones made his mark as a run-stuffing tackle for the Bulldogs, but he’s also athletic enough to help at defensive end. He started all 13 games last season, making 44 tackles and 21⁄2 sacks, which led him to declare for the draft with a year of eligibility remaining.

Kansas City had been eyeing help along the defensive line, but chose to move out of the first round — and miss on tackles Robert Nkemdiche and Vernon Butler — with the hope Jones would be around. Now, he should provide depth after the retirement of veteran Mike DeVito and with Allen Bailey’s injury history.

Jones also gives Kansas City some bargaining leverage — twotime Pro Bowl defensive tackle Dontari Poe, a former first-round pick, has a contract that expires after the upcoming season.

“He’s going to be a nice mix into our defensive line,” Reid said. “We felt like he was the best on our board at that time, felt very comfortable with him.”

After the Chiefs sent the No. 59 overall choice to Tampa Bay, they used their new third-round pick on Russell, who should compete for a starting spot alongside defensive rookie of the year Marcus Peters.

The Chiefs lost veteran Sean Smith in free agency. Phillip Gaines is the presumptive starter, but he is coming off an ACL injury. Steven Nelson played nickel last year and could factor into the race.

“I didn’t know what team I was going to go to, then when (my family saw the team was Kansas City, they went crazy,” Russell said. “They showed a lot of interest at my pro day but not after that.”

Talented, injured linebackers go early in second round Chicago (ap) — It was a long wait and a soft landing for Myles Jack and Jaylon Smith.

Now about those knees.

The pair of athletic linebackers with health questions went early in the second round of the NFL Draft on Friday, with Jacksonville trading up to grab Jack two spots after Dallas selected Smith with the No. 34 overall pick.

Jack and Smith were two of the biggest names still on the board at the beginning of the day, and Alabama running back Derrick Henry went to Tennessee at No. 45. Henry powered the Crimson Tide to the national championship last season and won the Heisman Trophy.

Jack was considered a potential top-five pick at one point, but concerns about his right knee sent him tumbling down the board. He played both ways as a freshman at UCLA and was the Pac-12 offensive and defensive newcomer of the year.

But a knee injury limited him to three games last season.

“Bottom line is, man, I’m ready to go,” Jack said. “I’ll be there rookie minicamp. I’m a 100 percent healthy. I’m cleared.

The knee shouldn’t be a concern anymore. I defi-

nitely proved that with my play. There’s nothing else to talk about. I’m ready to play ball.”

General manager Dave Caldwell said Jack had a great workout for the team.

“You’d never know there was anything wrong with him,” Jaguars general manager Dave Caldwell said. “As far as we’re concerned, there’s not right now. There’s no plan for surgeries.

There’s no plan for any additional treatment. I think we’re good to go.”

Smith also was expected to be a first-round pick before he tore two ligaments in his left knee during Notre Dame’s loss to Ohio State in the Fiesta Bowl. Following the advice of doctors at Notre Dame and agent Eugene Parker, who passed away from cancer on March 31, Smith had Cowboys team doctor Dan Cooper perform the surgery.

“I’m going to be fine.

I’ll be able to play again,” Smith said. “It’s just timing. Timing is everything and for Dallas to draft me, they’re going to get a great player. I’m looking forward to playing for a great team.”

Wade, Heat force Game 7 with Hornets The Associated Press

Heat 97, Hornets 90 Charlotte, N.C. — Dwyane Wade proved he still has some magic in his 34-year-old body.

Wade scored 10 of his 23 points in the fourth quarter, making his first three-pointer of 2016, and Miami forced its firstround series to a seventh game with a victory over Charlotte on Friday night.

Luol Deng was 9-of14 from the field and finished with 21 points, while Goran Dragic added 14 points and seven rebounds for the Heat, who will host Game 7 on Sunday.

The Heat overcame a playoff-career-high 37 points from Kemba Walker to hand the Hornets only their 11th loss of the season at home. Al Jefferson had 18 points and nine rebounds, and Cody Zeller had 12 points off the bench for Charlotte.

With Miami leading by two, Wade hit his first three-pointer since December with 46 seconds left and added an 18-foot turnaround jump shot over Courtney Lee to help seal the win.

The Hornets missed a golden opportunity to advance to the second round of the playoffs for the first time in 14 years.

They trailed the entire second half, never quite able to get over the hump and the Heat made timely shots and grabbed crucial rebounds.

Miami outrebounded Charlotte 46-31.

Walker gave it all he had.
