KU Jaybowl’s 62-year run coming to an end Saturday

By Sara Shepherd Twitter: @saramarieshep

Instead of the machines used to reset scattered pins between rolls today, Jaybowl once relied on semi-automatic technology.

It involved a lever-operated tray and small, spry people.

As a child in the 1950s, Thomas Wilcox, of Lawrence, was one of those Jaybowl pinboys, working Saturdays at

FARMER RICK ANDREWS STEPS INTO A STALL to gather one of his 65 alpacas for shearing April 25 at his farm south of Lawrence. The shearing, which yields many pounds of fiber from each animal, occurs once a year and requires considerable help from friends and family.

“They’re cool to look at,” says Rick Andrews.

That’s what Rick thought when he first saw one. Now, he has 65 of them. And that means that once a year he has days like this one. Sixtyfive alpacas gathered in the barn, with hair so poofed up that poodles everywhere whimper in envy.

It is shearing day.

Alpacas at a glance l Aficionados of alpacas also talk about how

much easier they are to raise than many other types of livestock. l Their mountain heritage makes them very resistant to cold winters. They do well enough in the heat with just a little shade. l Their water intake is pretty low. l They graze very gently on a pasture. l They eat relatively little. In addition to pasture grass or hay, they take just a “couple of handfuls” of grain per day. l Their fiber is very soft and is touted as being hypo-allergenic. l The animals are notoriously docile, although they will spit sometimes as a defense mechanism, and occasionally they will kick. l “Their manure is some of the very best.”

After two Lawrence residents with previous “promoting prostitution” convictions were charged Wednesday with multiple felonies in connection with alleged forced prostitution at a Lawrence massage parlor, some trade and government leaders say a state massage therapy licensing program might help prevent sex crimes in the industry.

Kansas is one of just five states in the nation that do not regulate the massage therapy industry. While most states require massage therapists to pass background checks, attend accredited massage schools or obtain certain Li certification, according to the American Massage Therapy Association, massage therapists in Kansas go completely unchecked.

Such was the case with Chen Li, 50, and Guihong Xiao, 45, who were arrested Tuesday after an investigation into allegations that sex crimes were oc- Xiao curring at their business, Spring Massage, 600 Lawrence Ave. Charging documents allege that two women were forced into sexual services at the Lawrence business and that Xiao also performed sexual services for pay at least once in January.

Li, charged with felony promoting the sale of sexual relations and aggravated human trafficking, and Xiao, charged with felony promotion, misdemeanor selling of sexual relations and two counts of aggravated human trafficking, have been down this road before. In 2013, they were convicted in Bonner Springs of misdemeanor promoting prostitution, but since the massage industry is unregulated in Kansas, Li and Xiao were free to start up another massage business just 25 miles away in Lawrence after their Bonner Springs legal troubles subsided.

AMTA Kansas lobbyist Stuart Little said if Kansas regulated its massage industry, and if a background check were required to own a massage business or perform massage therapy, Li and Xiao may have been prevented

John Lee Hamm John Lee Hamm died Saturday, 21 March, 2015, from cardiac arrest.

He was 70. Born 14 October, 1944 to John Dennis Noble and Grace Rhodes, he was adopted and raised by his paternal grandparents, Lee and Cecil Hamm.

He graduated from St. Joseph High School Shawnee, KS, attended Johnson County Community College, and earned a B.A. from the University of Kansas.

He served in the U.S. Air Force from 1961 until 1965. Mr. Hamm loved music and, most importantly, his family.

He owned more records than he knew what to do with, was arguably the best treasure hunter around, and although

he had no musical pitch, that didn’t stop him from whistling. Few things could stop him.

Mr. Hamm is survived by his mother Grace; three sons, John, Justin, and Thomas; siblings, Debi Robbins, Kim High, Dina Sprinkle, and Lloyd High; three grandchildren; and his ex-spouse, Lenette. He is predeceased by his sister, Lynn Gray, his father and grandparents.

Mr. Hamm’s ashes will be buried with a tree in a private ceremony.

Donations to the American Heart Association are encouraged.

licensing is people actually come here because they know they don’t have a license,” Little said. “(Regulation) serves a preventative purpose. They’re going to have to jump through some hoops.”

Currently, only a handful of Kansas municipalities have their own requirements for massage therapists. Overland Park, for example, has a licensing program in which a massage therapist must pay a registration fee, pass a background check, complete a national certification examination, have at least 500 hours of massage training and be certified in first aid and CPR to obtain a city license to practice, according to the Overland Park city clerk’s office.

Lawrence, however, has no such requirements. The city does not have a licensing program for the massage therapy industry, according to the city clerk’s office, meaning anyone can work as a massage therapist, regardless of whether they’ve received any training.

Douglas County District Attorney Charles Branson said Friday that some form of regulation of the industry could prove helpful in the fight against sex crimes.

“This is an industry that, without regulation, can and has been used for illegal activities, from prostitution to human trafficking,” Branson said.

“Although stringent regulations are probably not required, some minimal registration requirements could assist in preventing abuse in this industry and protect the legitimate operator.”

Since 2011, the Kansas AMTA chapter has been lobbying state legislators to create a regulatory standard for the massage industry. In 2015, two bills were introduced — one in the House and one in the Senate — but neither made it past committee.

The identical bills proposed requiring all massage professionals to obtain a license under the Kansas State Board of Nursing. Qualifying therapists would have to meet certain standards, includ-

Pearson Collision Repair 749-4455

— Marla Hieger, former president of the Kansas AMTA chapter ing successful completion of at least 500 hours of board-approved massage course instruction and passing a nationally recognized competency exam.

To keep their licenses, massage therapists would have to participate in continued education, pay a licensing fee and obtain liability insurance.

Lawrence Rep. John Wilson, who serves on the Health and Human Services committee that sponsored the House bill, said while the bill is “dormant until next session,” he is “supportive of the concept.”

“The bill is intended to address the issue we saw the other day in Lawrence,” Wilson said. “We have a rigorous exam for barbers, but we don’t have one for someone who touches all over a naked body?”

Little said opponents of the bill fear more government regulation of private business and believe the free market will sift out the unqualified.

“There is a sense in the Legislature that the free market should take care of itself,” Little said.

“There are a number of massage therapists who like not having to pay licensing fees or learn new techniques.”

But Little said each time a story like that of Li and Xiao makes headlines in Kansas, lawmakers come

closer to considering implementing regulations.

“Every few months, something like this happens,” Little said. “We’re at the point where the Legislature says something needs to happen, but they don’t know what.”

Former president of the Kansas AMTA chapter Marla Hieger said that while licensing could not eliminate sex crimes from the massage industry entirely, she does think it would help reduce its prevalence in the state.

“It’s going to be harder to get the girls licensed and harder to set up business,” Hieger said. “At least with a license, there is a state board that can look in, take complaints, investigate and take action.”

Kyle Rogers, who oversees the massage therapy program at Pinnacle Career Institute in Lawrence and Kansas City, said that while regulation could not entirely eradicate the back-room sex trade from businesses purporting to be massage spas, forcing the businesses to acquire licensing and be overseen by a regulatory board would make illicit activity more easily detectable.

“If you have it regulated, potential board members could drop in on the business,” Rogers said. “There would be more oversight over ill-reputed businesses (masquerading) as massage therapy and getting them shut down.”

Rogers said the lack of licensing should concern customers, too.

“The fact that you can literally just hang a shingle up and call yourself a massage therapist is horrifying to me,” Rogers said. “That’s scary — you could be in a place where somebody who was not trained can work on you.”

community and being able to involve the kids,” she said.

Employees of both companies and some of their children participated in the project, which also included educational presentations and activities. By locating the bee hotel on public trails, they hope to pass the knowledge on to others, said Kay Johnson, Prosoco sustainability and environment manager.

“We are trying to get Lawrence a little more familiar with bee hotels,”

Johnson said.

The bee hotel includes an information plaque on native bees, including the decline of bee populations and the role bees play in maintaining ecosystems and the food supply. It’s important to understand the link between native bee health and environmental health, Johnson said.

“If we don’t have bees, we don’t have certain vegetables, fruits and flowers,” Johnson said.

A study found that in the past 120 years, 50 percent of Midwestern native bee species have disappeared from their original habitats. These declines are due mainly to changes in the environment, such as loss of

habitat and pesticide use.

The bee hotel includes different sizes of tunnels — made of bamboo stalks, rolled paper tubes and blocks of wood with holes drilled through them — in order to accommodate different species of bees, Johnson said.

Habitats for native bees, which don’t normally sting, can also be installed in urban settings, Mayes said.

Another way to help native bees is to use native grasses and flowers, which can be found at most nurseries, to mimic the prairie in landscaping, Mayes said.

“If people want to know what they can do, use native plants,” she said.

Jaybowl

Last hurrah at the Jaybowl The Jaybowl’s last day is Saturday. Planned events include: l Private services: 1-4 p.m.

Jaybowl team and alumni gather for one last tournament. l Farewell Fling: 8-10 p.m.

Free hot dogs, popcorn and soda as well as free bowling for all guests — students, alumni and their families. l Cosmic Bowling and goodbye sendoff: 10 p.m.-12:55 a.m.

Black lights, mirror balls and the dark void usher in the final hours. Each half hour’s music selection will reflect the tunes of the decade from the 1950s to the present. l Ceremonial Last Strike: 12:55 a.m.

The pins will be set on all lanes one last time and brushed into eternity with a sequential sweep starting on lane 1 and ending on lane 12.

to whether we had finished clearing the pins before they threw another ball,” Wilcox said.

“So once in a while, one of the setters would take a flying leap out of the pit to behind a padded barrier for protection. It was close sometimes.”

When the 62-year-old Jaybowl closes Saturday, following a day of festivities, it will be for good.

As times have changed, so has Jaybowl — ultimately going away altogether. Union leaders say dwindling crowds and revenue led to the decision to close Jaybowl and repurpose it into some other type of gathering space.

When it opened in the sub-sub basement of the Union in 1953, Jaybowl featured six lanes along with two billiard tables and two snooker tables, according to a KU Alumni Association newsletter article for Jaybowl’s 50th anniversary. There were bowling classes in the mornings and open bowling afternoons and evenings.

Wilcox said back then Saturdays at the Jaybowl were busy, often with families and college students bowling before and after football games.

“They had a good time,” he said.

See the video at ljworld.com/jaybowlvideo Also according to the Alumni newsletter: When the Union was expanded in 1960, the Jaybowl reopened bigger and better, in its current location. It grew to 12 lanes, six billiard and snooker tables, and featured the “first generation” of automatic pinsetters.

Snooker to Space Invaders In 1977, after a fierce debate, the Union and Jaybowl started selling beer at the request of students. The same year, the Pladium bowling alley at Ninth and Mississippi streets closed, creating a boom for Jaybowl, at least until Royal Lanes opened at 33rd and Iowa two years later.

The 1980s saw the replacement of some of the pool tables with 15 video games — including PacMan and Space Invaders — and other upgrades to the facility.

Late-night technobowling, now billed as Cosmic Bowling, arrived in the 1990s.

Beer sales at the Union ended in 1998 and have not returned since, despite an organized student proposal in 2008, according to a JournalWorld article.

By 2000, the Union was considering a plan to

At the time, Union director David Mucci said Jaybowl had lost between $850 and $7,450 during the past five years. He said Jaybowl was logging 35,000 visits a year, and a study indicated that a computer lab could draw 170,000.

Ultimately that plan was scratched and the Jaybowl got a new lease on life, closing for a yearlong renovation and reopening in 2002.

Still struggles That lease has now run out.

The Union announced on April 14 that Jaybowl would close, and this time it wasn’t a proposal.

Jaybowl has experienced an average loss of $17,000 a year the past five years, and annual users average 21,000, said Claudia Larkin, Union marketing director.

In keeping with the Kansas Board of Regents noncompete policy, Larkin said marketing, events and promotions have targeted the student campus audience.

As part of a process to plan the next all-Union renovation, hoped to occur in the next three to four years, the Union has held focus groups with students, faculty and staff, programs director J.J. O’Toole-Curran said.

She said feedback indicated there could be “a better use” for the space occupied by Jaybowl.

“I think, for the KU campus, it was declining in popularity,” she said.

O’Toole-Curran said most of Jaybowl’s revenue came from daily walk-in traffic paying for bowling, food and shoes.

There was some revenue from birthday parties, and fees paid by students in KU bowling classes. A small engraving business once brought some revenue, but that has been

Entry and exit into the Kansas Union after 11 p.m. on May 9 will be through the Mississippi Street entrance on Level 1.

Over the summer, a commemorative tribute will be in display cases outside the Jaybowl entrance. The current interior “party room” will be renamed the “Spare Room” and repurposed as an event space containing bowling mementos.

Memorabilia will be sold at the Jaybowl counter starting Monday and will conclude on May 9, or until depleted.

Florida State recently renovated its facility, too, and it’s a popular alternative to leaving campus to hit the bars, Fine said.

At its best, that’s what Jaybowl was, too, Fine said.

“I’m a big believer in the co-curricular experience,” he said. “It was more than just lanes; it was a home away from home, a big part of the classic union model as the living room of campus.”

What’s next O’Toole-Curran said the Union wants to maintain that philosophy for whatever replaces the Jaybowl.

In the short term, the area will close for the summer for renovations that will make it functional as an event space.

She said they’re look-

ing at other more drastic changes as a possibility for a couple years out.

She said a pub and grill are possibilities.

Whatever it ends up, she said, the space will include some kind of tribute to Jaybowl’s long history there.

As for KU’s longstanding tradition of bowling classes?

KU Health Science and Exercise Science department chair Joe Weir said he thought at first it would die with Jaybowl.

But Gepford, the exKU bowling coach, approached him and offered to instruct the one-credit activity courses at Royal Crest instead. So as long as students still enroll, Weir said, that’s where bowling classes will be this fall.

and beauty purposes.

It is like a spa day. I must not be the only one with that thought, based on the conversation I overhear between a couple of ladies.

Lady No. 1: “I’ve arranged for him to do your legs,� she says while pointing to the fellow from Midwest Shearinging and his big, electric clippers.

Lady No. 2: “Mom!!!�

I feel your pain. My wife comes after my eyebrows with a set of clippers that I’m sure are powered by a gas engine.

Here, big clippers are a necessity. Two at a time, the herd at Coal Creek Farms — which is just south of Lawrence on County Route 458 — enter the clipping area, where they are put on their sides and have their hooves secured by a rope and pulley system. (Discount spa, apparently.) Then comes the clipping, and more clipping, and more. The first cut of fiber is called the blanket. It easily can produce four to five pounds of fiber by itself.

Hair from the neck and legs and underbelly is another five to six pounds of fiber on a typical animal.

Helpers gather the fiber off the floor and put it in laundry baskets, then it is weighed.

Then it goes through a process called skirting, where it is picked clean of debris.

Eventually, the fiber from Coal Creek’s herd will go either to a fiber processing mill in Phillipsburg, or back to the East Coast, where it is used by the New England Alpaca Fiber Pool. The pool uses the fiber to make everything from socks to scarves to blankets to something called dryer balls, which are put in your dryer to help cut down on the amount of time it takes to do your laundry.

Since the holiday season, Coal Creek Farms has been operating a little country store where it sells things made from alpaca products. The

Husband can’t get over his porn addiction Dear Annie: I am 63, and my husband, “Jake,� is 67. Jake has been watching a lot of pornography. He lies over and over about how he is no longer doing it, and I slowly forgive him.

But years have gone by, and I keep catching him through the history on his computer. He’ll deny it until I show him the proof, and even then, he tries to squirm out of it.

I’m pretty sure Jake is ashamed of this, but why can’t he stop? He has tried counseling. I feel so much anger and disgust. Do I have to accept him as he is? — No One To Share This With Dear No One: A lot of men like to look at pornography. The problem with Internet porn is that it is interactive and addictive.

We will assume that Jake has a satisfying sex life with you, making the pornography more habit than substitute.

Gee, I wonder whose life story CBS is channeling?

Ben’s brief moment of relaxation is short-lived as “Secrets and Lies� (8 p.m., ABC) wraps up its 10-episode mystery. Whether this returns for another season or stands alone as an extended one-time miniseries has yet to be announced. “Last Man on Earth� (8:30 p.m., Fox) has been renewed for a sophomore season. “Last Man� exemplifies how this has been the year for shows that are based on fairly ancient jokes.

Dear Annie: Over the years, I’ve seen letters regarding women who are bullied by husbands or mothers-in-law for giving birth to a girl instead of a boy. In much of the world, women are still physically and mentally abused for having given birth to the “wrong� sex. They are ostracized, and some are even killed.

Shameful report A state audit report paints a deplorable picture of a Kansas program charged with rehabilitating sexual offenders.

I

n an effort to protect Kansas residents, the state passed legislation in 1994 designed to confine people who had committed violent sexual crimes until they no longer were a danger to the public.

Perhaps, because of mental illness or other issues, some of those offenders would never meet that standard, but with proper therapy or medical intervention, it seemed likely that a sizable number could be released without posing a danger.

Now comes a report from the Legislative Division of Post Audit indicating that in the 20 years of this program’s existence only three people have been released. Far more, 27, have died in custody.

A total of 258 offenders currently are in the program, which cost the state about $13.9 million last year. Unless changes are made, the audit said, both the size of the program and the cost to maintain it will more than double in the next decade to about 500 patients and between $26 million and $34 million by 2025.

The rising cost of the program gets legislators’ attention, but the human toll may be even larger.

The 1994 law provides for offenders to be involuntarily committed to a state facility after completing their prison sentences. Currently all of the offenders being treated are men. Most of those, 243, are at Larned State Hospital; facilities at Parsons and Osawatomie each have eight patients.

The audit compared the Kansas program with similar programs in Wisconsin, Washington and Iowa. The Wisconsin program, also established in 1994, has a current population of 312, but, since its inception, it has conditionally released 122 people and unconditionally discharged 118 people. Long-term data on those who are released committing new offenses isn’t available, the audit report said, but Wisconsin recently started to capture data that estimates its rate for re-offenses was between 3 percent and 5 percent.

In order to be released from the Kansas program, offenders must complete a seven-phase treatment plan. That’s a difficult goal when patients, according to the audit, receive fewer than three hours of therapy a week, much of it not tailored to their individual needs. Records of patients’ progress also are insufficient the audit says.

State statute requires an annual exam of each resident’s mental condition to determine whether that person still meets the requirement for a involuntary commitment, but those exams haven’t been completed at Larned. Unlike sexual predator programs in other states, the Kansas program offers no GED or adult basic education programs and no treatment for drug and alcohol addiction. According to the audit, “staff said the program was not designed to provide rehabilitation such as addiction recovery services.”

Without rehabilitation, therapy or even proper evaluation, what is this program other than a way to warehouse people indefinitely, not meeting the intent of the original law and perhaps violating their civil rights?

Kansas and its Menninger Clinic once prided itself on progressive treatment of mental illness. About a decade ago, it also was known as a leader in rehabilitating prison inmates and successfully returning them to society. The audit report on the state’s sexual predator program should make state officials ashamed. If there are people in this program who can never be rehabilitated, the state should admit that and find another way to properly confine them. But those who might be able, with proper therapy and education, to re-enter society deserve better. The state has a moral and legal obligation to provide a program that gives them that chance.

Lusitania sinking didn’t alter history Washington — Owning a fragment of history — a Gettysburg bullet, a Coolidge campaign button — is fun, so in 1968 Gregg Bemis became an owner of the Lusitania. This 787-feet-long passenger liner has been beneath 300 feet of water off Ireland’s south coast since a single German torpedo sank it 100 years ago Thursday. It contains the 4 million U.S.made rifle bullets and other munitions that the ship had been carrying from neutral America to wartime Britain.

It is commonly but wrongly said that the sinking altered history’s trajectory. Yet some people, including Britain’s first lord of the Admiralty, Winston Churchill, hoped an attack on a ship would pull America into the war. They may have facilitated Lusitania’s calamity by not taking available measures to prevent it. Of the 1,198 who perished, 128 were Americans.

In “Dead Wake: The Last Crossing of the Lusitania,” Erik Larson notes that early in 1915 warfare was evolving.

On Jan. 19, two zeppelins conducted Germany’s first air raid on Britain. On April 22, near Ypres, Germans sent a cloud of chlorine gas drifting toward French and Canadian lines.

Larson’s story concerns a technology central to Germany’s strategy: Submarines supposedly would interdict supplies heading to Britain,

“

Yet some people, including Britain’s first lord of the Admiralty, Winston Churchill, hoped an attack on a ship would pull America into the war.” which imported two-thirds of its food.

The morning the Lusitania left New York, Germany’s U.S. embassy placed on the shipping pages of the city’s newspapers its usual notice that vessels flying the British flag “are liable to destruction” in the war zone, including waters around the United Kingdom. Capt. William Turner soothed anxious passengers by noting that his ship could outrun a submarine. This was reassuring only assuming he would know where the submarines would be. Turner also said that upon entering the war zone, the ship would be enveloped by the British Navy’s protection. He was wrong.

Woodrow Wilson’s February 1915 protest about German submarines targeting neutral countries’ merchant shipping, Larson writes, “did not impress Germany’s submarine zealots,” who thought they could cripple Britain before America could mobilize to intervene in Europe. Germany’s policy put events in the hands of young, ambitious submarine captains, such as Walther Schwieger of U-20, whose movements were tracked by British intelligence capabilities unknown to Germany.

Because some passengers had to be transferred from another liner, Lusitania left America two hours late. To pare costs in the face of declining wartime travel, the ship conserved coal by using just three of its four boiler rooms, which prolonged the voyage. If neither delay had happened, Lusitania’s course probably would not have intersected U-20’s. British officials did not tell Turner to alter Lusitania’s route to Liverpool and did not send even a single one of the available navy vessels for protection.

Churchill had spoken of attracting shipping to Britain’s shores “in the hopes especially of embroiling the United States with Germany.” And: “We want the traffic — the more the better; and if some of it gets into trouble, better still.”

Churchill’s thinking about the Lusitania tragedy and the economizing of violence was similar. In his World War I memoir, he wrote that America’s entry into the war in April 1917 “could have been done in May 1915. And if done then what abridgement of the slaughter ... would have been prevented.”

Larson notes that the day Lusitania was sunk, Col. Edward House, Wilson’s adviser, was in London, where King George V asked him: “Suppose they should sink the Lusitania with American passengers aboard?” Hours earlier, House had met with Britain’s foreign secretary.

“We spoke,” House remembered, “of the probability of an ocean liner being sunk and I told him if this were done, a flame of indignation would sweep across America, which would in itself probably carry us into war.”

American anger was more muted and the nation’s neutrality survived until two months after Germany resumed unrestricted submarine warfare in February 1917. A “dead wake,” Larson explains, is maritime vernacular for a trail of “a fading disturbance,” as from a torpedo. What Gregg Bemis owns is a relic of a tragedy that was a consequence, not a cause, of many others.

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for May 3, 1915: “For eighty cents and an Elgin watch Harry Porter, Frank Palmer and Wiyears ley Hash, each nineteen years old, ago shot and robbed Oscar Wilson Sunday IN 1915 morning about twelve fifteen o’clock on the California road one mile west and three miles south of Lecompton. Wilson was taken to Simmons hospital where he is at the point of death. The boys were apprehended this morning by Sheriff Cummings and brought to Lawrence where they confessed to the holdup.... The bullet was found to have entered the right side and ranged upward through the lungs, lodging in the left shoulder. The condition of Wilson will not permit the necessary operation to remove the lead.”

Pastor urges education, involvement On the Thursday before Baltimore burned, Mr. Lee went to Washington.

He didn’t have far to go.

Rev. Tony Lee is the 46-yearold pastor of Community of Hope, an AME church housed in a shopping mall in Hillcrest Heights, Md., just minutes from the D.C. line. Under the auspices of the National Coalition on Black Civic Participation, a Washington-based advocacy group, he led a delegation of 200 AfricanAmerican men to Capitol Hill. They went to their capital to talk to their legislators about issues that impact their lives: racially stratified policing, education reform, voting rights and more.

It was not about protest. It was about policy.

“Protests,” Lee told me in a telephone interview, “are one way that pushes people’s feet to the fire. Whatever the issue is, it’s brought to the forefront. But ... there’s still a need for people to do legislative advocacy, dealing with policy, whether it’s from the national to the local, showing people how to be engaged and (affecting) the policies that have such direct impact.”

Too often, said Lee, African-Americans have focused solely on protest — an important element of social change, but not the only one. He used the analogy of weightlifters that focus solely on building upperbody mass while “their legs are toothpicks. ... In many ways, our policy legs are like toothpicks. Most people

“

Too often, said Lee, African-Americans have focused solely on protest — an important element of social change, but not the only one.”

don’t know how to engage that. What you find in the policy area is more the politicos, more the people who have been doing this stuff a while. But we want just everyday brothers — and sisters — to see how they can get engaged in policy and to make sure that their legislators, whether it’s federal, or ... local, city, state, know who they are, hear their voices...”

Full disclosure: I’ve known Rev. Tony Lee for about eight years. He christened my granddaughter. And I couldn’t think of a better person to respond to Tracy. As I said in my last column, she is a reader from Austin, Texas, a 55-yearold white woman, who wrote me that she is heartsick about police violence against unarmed African-American men. I decided to focus a series of columns — openended and running irregularly

— on finding answers to the question she asked me: What can I do?

“I have a framework for people like her and for others,” said Lee. “It’s educate, advocate and participate. Educate means to get educated on the issue. A lot of times, what will happen is ... you can end up having a lot of blind spots because you haven’t educated yourself on the issues. ... Some of those local and national organizations have a great wealth of information that you can be able to educate yourself on what’s happening around some of the issues.”

Nor, he said, should she keep what she learns to herself. “As she’s becoming more informed, start talking to the people in her life. She should never minimize what it means to talk to people who are around her, people that she daily deals with. It sounds like that would be white people. She can talk to her friends and her neighbors and ... educate them on what she’s learning.”

Having educated herself, he said, she should advocate, i.e., start “to deal with and talk about these issues and how she feels about them to people who are in decisionmaking authority in her region, whether it’s her local lawmakers or even her national representatives.”

Tracy, said Lee, should understand the advantage her skin color affords her. “It’s one thing for some of her lawmakers to hear from some of

the usual suspects. It’s another thing for them to hear from constituents that aren’t black, but are white ... to hear from some of their constituents who say, ‘Hey, this is wrong.’”

Even the civil rights movement, he points out, included white Americans of conscience, who realized it was not just a struggle for “black” rights, but for human rights.

Which brings us to the third leg of Lee’s model for civic engagement: participate.

“Just get connected,” he said. “All organizations can use volunteers, (even if) it’s just to come in and say, ‘I’d love to work the phones for you all for a couple of hours a week.’ But find a space to participate. The other piece of participation is to be able to give. Many of the organizations in her region and nationally, need resources to be able to do the work. ... Never think that any gift is too small.”

Nor, he said, does giving stop there. “You may be in a position of fund-raising. It may be that you are able, not just to give, but to shape sessions among personal networks to be able to raise funds for some of these organizations.

Educate, advocate, participate. It is, admittedly, not an agenda as immediately and viscerally gratifying as street protest, but it highlights a salient truth about American social transformation.

On the street is where the change is demanded. At the table is where it is made.

It’s a princess! And Britain got to see her, wrapped in a blanket, just about nine hours after her birth.

Duchess Kate of Cambridge safely delivered a baby girl at 8:34 a.m. London time Saturday.

The baby arrived after less than three hours of labor. At 5:30 p.m.

London time, Kensington Palace announced that mother and baby would be leaving the hospital Saturday evening local time.

Shortly after, Prince William and Duchess Kate emerged from the hospital, posed and waved to the crowd and got into cars to return to Kensington Palace.

Kate looked fresh and relaxed as she held her baby in her arms.

She was dressed in a yellow-andwhite shift dress by Jenny Packham, her hair was loose and flowing. She did not look as if she had just been through labor.

It was a rapid end to a long week of waiting.

“Her Royal Highness The Duchess of Cambridge was safely delivered of a daughter at 8.34am,” Kensington Palace announced by Twitter and email.

“The baby weighs 8lbs 3oz.”

Prince William, Duke of Cambridge, was present for the birth.

LONDON

CHRIS JACKSON, GETTY IMAGES

Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge, and Prince William, Duke of Cambridge show off their bundle of pink Saturday.

The queen, the duke of Edinburgh, the prince of Wales, the duchess of Cornwall, Prince Harry and members of both families have been informed and are delighted with the news.

“Her Royal Highness and her child are both doing well.”

Kensington Palace announced that the duchess checked into St. Mary’s Hospital maternity Lindo Wing at 6 p.m. local time. Her anticipated due date was around April 25, so she was about a week overdue.

The announcement was the

previously arranged signal to the world media to rush to the barricaded press pens outside the hospital, in London’s Paddington neighborhood not far from Kensington Palace.

They were there to capture pictures of Prince William leaving the hospital around 4 p.m. local time, to pick up Prince George, 21 months old. He told the waiting crowds the couple were “very happy,” according to British media on the scene.

Fifteen minutes later, he was back with George, carrying him up the steps of the hospital as the little prince stared with seeming amazement at the media mob and shyly waved his hand. It was the first time he had been seen in public in the U.K. since his own birth in 2013, when his parents emerged from St. Mary’s with him in their arms. He waved a tiny hand then, too.

Celebrations over the news of the birth began immediately, outside the hospital and in London.

Although the news was conveyed first via social media and email (the royals have become digitally savvy), the traditional announcement on fancy paper was posted on an easel just inside the gates of Buckingham Palace later in the morning.

Amy Thompson, who camped outside the hospital for 13 days, said that she always knew it was going to be a girl.

“It means a lot to the people in Britain who support the royal family,” she said.

How a party school got sober Md. university has become model of how to address college drinking Rick Hampson USA TODAY

Frostburg State University President Jonathan Gibralter helped tamp down dangerous drinking through education and enforcement.

FROSTBURG, MD.

When Jonathan Gibralter became its president, Frostburg State University was known as a school for those who’d rather party than study, a place of 24-hour beer pong tournaments and dime beer nights.

Weekends began at noon Thursdays and ended, more than once, in tragedy.

On campus, fliers for keg parties slid under dorm room doors.

The student paper had a “Drink of the Week” column featuring concoctions such as the Mind Eraser and Alien Urine (melon liqueur, peach schnapps, coconut rum and orange juice).

Off-campus, rogue fraternities threw parties attended by hundreds of students who spilled onto lawns and sidewalks. Drunken freshmen roamed the streets, cursing, fighting and stealing things, including the city administrator’s Nativity scene.

JACK GRUBER, USA TODAY

A MIX OF SOLUTIONS ON ALCOHOL ABUSE In lieu of one “perfect answer,” Jonathan Gibralter has found many for Frostburg State University. Among them: uCampus police patrol off-campus student neighborhoods, and the school gives the city money to hire and train its officers. uA student who’s arrested or cited by city police also faces university discipline, and the incident is reported to parents. uFriday classes are scheduled

to curtail Thursday night revelry. u“Dry” programs — crafts, magicians, sober karaoke — are offered on weekends. uFreshmen must pass an online alcohol education course, with in-person counseling for those seemingly at risk. uThe school pays to train local bar employees and student group leaders on how to deal with drunks and alcohol-fueled confrontations.

Baltimore TV station, the interviewer snickered.

Which is why, on a recent Thursday night, the calm here was striking. There was partying aplenty, but no urinating in bushes, vomiting on lawns or sleeping in gutters.

There even were a few students in the campus library.

In a nation increasingly concerned about college alcohol abuse and its attendant mayhem – sexual assault, hazing, vandalism – this school has become an unlikely model of how to address a problem that seemed to defy solution.

This was Jonathan Gibralter’s vision: rebrand Frostburg State by reforming it. Now, after nine years, he’s leaving for another job.

But he says even the rowdiest school can curb dangerous drinking, if only its president has the spine for it.

“A lot of people have thrown up their hands — ‘There’s nothing we can do!” ’ he says. “There’s no perfect answer, but if you really try, you can make the situation better.”

Thousands of protesters rallied at City Hall on Saturday amid heavily armed police and National Guard troops, but the mood was more celebratory than tense following the state prosecutor’s decision Friday to charge six police officers in the death of Freddie Gray.

BALTIMORE

Marching through the streets, demonstrators held signs that read, “Racism is a disease,” “It is right to rebel” and “Stop racist police terror.” Many shouted “We have voices” and “12 jurors for Freddie.”

Gray, a black male, died of spinal injuries suffered while in police custody April 12. His death led to 10 days of protests, which turned violent Monday after his funeral. Clashes between police and protesters prompted the arrests of more than 200 people and injuries to at least 20 police officers. There were a few arrests after the 10 p.m. curfew Saturday.

While largely celebratory, it also reflected a sense of frustra-

Charged were Officer Caesar Goodson Jr. (second-degree murder), Officer William Porter (manslaughter), Lt. Brian Rice (manslaughter), Officer Edward Nero (assault), Officer Garrett Miller (assault) and Sgt. Alicia White (manslaughter).

Earlier Saturday, authorities erected barricades to block traffic around City Hall. Armored military vehicles were parked at the checkpoints, and there were large numbers of police and troops donning body armor.

Wising up on binge drinking v CONTINUED FROM 1B

tense, a man proud that FSU’s spring break coincided with the city’s St. Patrick’s pub crawl.

“I challenge college presidents to take a stand,” he says. “I know it’s hard. It know it may cause problems with alumni or students. But if we won’t be leaders on this issue, who will?”

Over the past decade, FSU students who say they binge — consume five or more drinks (four for women) at a sitting at least once in the prior two weeks — has dropped by a quarter. The average number of drinks consumed per student has fallen in half, according to school surveys.

Frostburg’s approach reflects a gathering national consensus: Although it’s impossible to stop underage drinking, schools can tamp down dangerous drinking through education and enforcement.

Later this year, the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism’s university presidents’ group, which Gibralter chairs, will release a report on best practices that’s expected to include many tried here.

Frostburg’s experience also illustrates two surprising facts about college drinking nationwide:

Despite many well-publicized 1incidents, it’s actually going down.

Binge drinking among college students has dropped 13% over the past decade. Extreme drinking (10 or more drinks at a sitting) also appears to be easing, says Lloyd Johnston, who directs the University of Michigan’s Monitoring the Future survey.

College students still drink a lot — 2 usually illegally (about three-quarters of undergrads are under the 21 drinking age) and often dangerously.

More than a third say they binge-drink. About 13% are extreme bingers and 5% — including almost 10% of male students — have had 15 or more drinks in a row in the past two weeks.

Those numbers shock most parents and explain why about 1,800 college students a year die from alcohol-related causes (mostly drunken-driving accidents).

At FSU, which has about 5,000 undergraduates, an average of two students a month still are rushed to the hospital because of alcohol.

So Gibralter sleeps, often fitfully, with his phone by his bed and prays that when it rings “the call will be about ice or snow.”

IN BRIEF NIGERIA: 234 GIRLS, WOMEN RESCUED FROM BOKO HARAM

Nigeria's military has rescued 234 more women and children from a forested area of northeastern Nigeria controlled by Boko Haram extremists who have kidnapped hundreds of girls in recent years, the Nigerian defense ministry said Saturday.

The latest rescue, announced by the Nigeria Defense Headquarters on Twitter, brings the total for the week to more than 677 females whom the Nigerian military claims to have rescued.

The defense headquarters said at midweek that 200 girls and 93 women had been rescued from the Sambisa Forest, where Boko Haram is based in northeastern Nigeria, and that Nigerian troops captured and destroyed three terrorist camps.

Muhammad Gavi, a spokesman for a self-defense group that fights Boko Haram, said some of the hundreds of women and girls who were freed are pregnant, citing information he got from some group members who have seen the females.

such complaints. Personally, as a senior, she appreciates FSU’s rebranding — “My degree will be worth more than 15 years ago.”

But as one who likes to party, she feels the school “has lost a lot of its fun side” and with it the need for students to learn to drink without a college to coddle them.

“This is where you should have to learn to balance things yourself,” she says. “If you don’t learn now, when will you?”

Despite Gibralter’s threat of “zero tolerance” and students’ talk of prohibition, the campus is not dry — you can have a six-pack in your dorm fridge if you’re 21 — and it takes several alcohol infractions to get in serious trouble.

Also, Frostburg’s reduction in problem drinking may not stem entirely from its policies, but also from demographics. Its percentage of students most likely to drink heavily — white, nativeborn men — has declined, while African-American and foreign enrollment has increased.

Frostburg’s binge-drinking rate, while lower than it was, is about the same as the national one. And Jeff Graham, student affairs vice president, says he’s not optimistic it can be pushed much lower.

College students have always drunk (and behaved) immoderately or illegally. At Harvard in the 1850s, Henry Adams wrote, students “were apt to drink hard and to live low lives.” At Frostburg in the 1950s, when it was a teachers’ college, female students smuggled liquor into dances in corsage boxes.

Now Gibralter is leaving to become president of Wells College, a much smaller (and until 2005 all-female) school in Upstate New York where most students live on campus and there are only a few bars.

Gibralter seems likely to sleep easier.

Asked what he’s learned at Frostburg, Gibralter says: “You’re always just one party, one bad decision from a disaster.”

With a yearly influx of freshmen and a public appetite for lurid stories of booze-fueled campus misbehavior, “You can’t ever imagine you’ve fixed the problem.”

NATION ON POLITICS Catalina Camia @ccamia USA TODAY

Ronald Reagan’s unsuccessful presidential pursuits in 1968 and 1976 forged a conservative base that would get him elected twice and remain influential decades later.

The field for the GOP presidential nomination is set to expand with Ben Carson, Carly Fiorina and Mike Huckabee, all likely to jump formally into the 2016 race this week. On the Democratic side, Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont became the first person to challenge Hillary Clinton. More political news: WASHINGTON

SANDERS, BROTHER SHARE POPULIST PHILOSOPHY Bernie Sanders, an independent who calls himself a socialist, isn’t the only member of his family seeking political office. His older brother, Larry, is the Green Party candidate for Parliament in Thursday’s United Kingdom elections. Larry Sanders moved to Oxford, England, in 1969 and previously served on his county council. Just like his brother’s presidential campaign, income inequality is a campaign theme.

“There has been a large increase in the wealth and earnings of the very rich, a sharp growth in the number of people living in poverty and increasing pressure on the middle classes,” Sanders wrote, explaining why he’s running for Parliament.

GAY BUSINESSMEN SORRY FOR TED CRUZ DINNER Two prominent gay businessmen apologized for hosting a dinner for GOP presidential hopeful Ted Cruz, who opposes same-sex marriage. “I am shaken to my bones by the emails, texts, postings and phone calls of the past few days. I made a terrible mistake,” said Ian Reisner, a co-owner of The Out Hotel in New York City. Reisner and his business partner, Mati Weiderpass, faced a backlash and their businesses were targeted for a boycott because they hosted an April 20 dinner for Cruz that was primarily a vehicle for guests to hear the Texas senator’s views on foreign policy and national security. Cruz is sponsoring a bill that would bar federal courts from deciding marriage laws.

Here are 10 examples of influential underdogs:

1

WENDELL WILLKIE (1940)

The quintessential dark horse became a lead dog. A utilities executive who had never sought public office — and was once a Democrat — Willkie snatched away the Republican nomination from better-known rivals. One reason: the backing of the GOP’s “Eastern Establishment” who worried about the party’s drift toward isolationism as Europe descended into the Second World War. Willkie lost the 1940 election to President Franklin Roosevelt, who won an unprecedented third term. But he made the Republican Party more internationalist, little more than a year before Pearl Harbor.

2 Long before becoming a twoRONALD REAGAN (1968, 1976)

term president and Republican icon, Reagan unsuccessfully pursued the GOP nomination twice — and left his conservative mark on the party both times. Reagan’s bid in 1968 — in the middle of his first term as California governor — seemed tardy and haphazard. But it forced front-runner Richard Nixon to the right, which included an appeal to Southern states.

Nixon’s “Southern strategy” has influenced Republican politics for generations. Reagan had a similar impact in 1976, when he challenged sitting Republican President Gerald Ford and nearly wrested away the nomination. Reagan’s unsuccessful races helped forge the conservative party that elected him in 1980 and 1984.

UNDERDOGS

THAT MATTERED No one gives Carly Fiorina, Bernie Sanders or Ben

Carson much of a chance to be president — but they can take heart from the success of underdogs in previous races. When it comes to running for president, long shots don’t always stay long shots. Some candidates who started out as punchlines wound up putting their unique stamp on party politics. Some actually won their party’s nomination and influenced politics for years. A few eventually became president.

Backed by opponents of the Vietnam War, McCarthy actually lost to President Lyndon Johnson in that year’s New Hampshire primary — but his strong showing helped persuade LBJ to announce he wouldn’t run again after all (and encouraged Robert Kennedy to enter the race). Kennedy was assassinated, and McCarthy did not win the 1968 nomination against Johnson’s vice president, Hubert Humphrey. But McCarthy showed the power of primaries to upset the establishment.

Jindal welcome on road but unpopular at home Deborah Barfield Berry USA TODAY

Gov. Bobby Jindal drew enthusiastic applause from conservatives here Friday with comments recalling his efforts to push “school choice” for Louisiana residents seeking alternatives to public schools.

“We fought for that every single year since I’ve been governor,” Jindal said at the Ideas Summit hosted by the National Review Institute.

Friday’s speech was one of two appearances Jindal, a Republican mulling a presidential bid, made in Washington last week before supportive audiences that shared his views on school choice, repealing the Affordable Care Act, immigration reform and other issues.

Back home, though, the crowds are a lot less friendly.

In Louisiana, Jindal is widely disliked for refusing to expand Medicaid, proposing drastic WASHINGTON

cuts to higher education and other programs, and switching his stance on Common Core education standards. Jindal initially backed the standards and now opposes them, over his own state school superintendent’s objections.

He’s also blamed for helping turn Louisiana’s budget surplus into a $1.6 billion deficit.

In March, Mississippi-based Triumph Campaigns put Jindal’s approval rating in Louisiana at 27%. Meanwhile, a Public Policy Polling survey last month of voters in New Hampshire, which holds the country’s first presidential primary, found Jindal’s favorability rating at 43%. The pollsters called that “one of the best favorability ratings of anyone we tested in the state.”

Louisiana’s hostile view of Jindal could prove a liability if he decides to run for president, said Joshua Stockley, a political scientist at the University of Louisiana at Monroe.

But Carter took advantage of the proliferation of primaries to win the Democratic nomination. His first victory came in a then littleknown but now influential contest: the Iowa caucuses. Carter went on to defeat President Gerald Ford, little more than two years after Ford ascended when Nixon resigned.

6 It’s easy to forget now, but Bush was not that well-known GEORGE H.W. BUSH (1980)

nationally when he sought the Republican nomination in 1980.

He wound up as the main challenger to Ronald Reagan and became the Gipper’s running mate.

Bush’s credible run in 1980 preserved his political career, and he won the presidency himself in 1988 — as did son George W. in 2000 and 2004. Now another son, Jeb, is likely to seek the presidency. Would there be a “Bush dynasty” without 1980?

7 The Democratic senator from Colorado came out of noGARY HART (1984, 1988)

where to challenge heavy favorite (and eventual nominee) Walter Mondale in 1984 — and his aborted 1988 bid changed the rules of presidential campaigns.

Hart, the favorite himself in 1988, ran aground amid allegations of an extramarital affair — an issue once taboo for the political press.

“Character issues” and “scandal politics” have been a factor in presidential races ever since.

8 Few people thought the civil JESSE JACKSON (1984, 1988)

rights advocate had much of a chance at the Democratic nomination, but his two campaigns changed the party.

Jackson galvanized minority voters, forcing other Democratic candidates to address AfricanAmerican issues.

In some ways, Jackson paved the way for Barack Obama’s successful campaigns in 2008 and 2012.

cumbent President George H.W. Bush in 1992.

The commentator and Ronald Reagan aide pressed Bush hard in early Republican primaries, questioning “King George’s” commitment to conservatism.

U.N. moves to help Somalia’s refugees Kenya seeks to close camp used by terrorists Tonny Onyulo

Special for USA TODAY DADAAB, KENYA The world’s largest refugee camp is becoming a scene of not only chronic misery but a growing confrontation between a Kenyan government threatening to shut it down and occupants vowing to stay.

The government announced April 11 that it wanted the camp closed within three months because it was used as a staging ground by al-Shabab terrorists for the university attack in Garissa earlier this month that killed more than 140 students and staff.

But the 350,000 refugees — mostly Somalis who have fled civil war, terrorism and famine — say they won’t willingly leave the peace and security of Dadaab. On

their side: the United Nations, which has spoken out against the move.

“I will either live or die at this camp,” said Abdi Mohammed Adan, 37, who came to Dadaab recently with his wife and four children. “I can’t go back to Somalia.

It’s not safe. And there is hunger (there).”

Mohamed Kuno, believed to be the mastermind behind the university attack, was a headmaster at a madrassa, or Islamic school, in the Dadaab camp. The Kenyan government currently has a $215,000 bounty on his head.

Other terrorists involved in the attacks were either refugees or Kuno’s colleagues at the madrassa, said Adan Duale, the majority leader of Kenya’s National Assembly who represents Garissa Township.

TONY KARUMBA, AFP/GETTY IMAGES

A boy looks through a fence in July 2011 as newly arrived Somali refugees wait outside the Dadaab refugee camp in Kenya.

At least four of the terrorists were killed in a military operation to end a more than 15-hourlong siege April 2 that also left 79 people injured. Since then, seven suspects in the attack have been arrested.

Founded 25 years ago as Somalia’s government imploded and

the East African country descended into civil war, the Dadaab camp has become a city where generations have lived and died.

“Living in Somalia is like being in hell. My neighbors in Somalia were all killed by militants before I moved with my family,” said

Adan’s wife, Aisha, 27.

Duale said he believes al-Shabab — a terror group linked to alQaeda — has used the camp for other attacks that were in retaliation against Kenya for sending soldiers into Somalia in 2011 to root out Muslim extremism. He includes the Westgate Shopping Mall attack in Nairobi two years ago that left 67 dead and injured about 175 people.

“Those involved in terror activities have been trained at these camps,” Duale said, referring to three facilities that make up the larger Dadaab refugee zone.

Despite reports its stance has softened, the Kenya government insists the camp should be shuttered. However, donors will be needed to help repatriate refugees back to Somalia — a process that requires extra funds and time, said Foreign Affairs Cabinet Secretary Amina Mohamed.

Grandpa Charles got the girl he hoped for v CONTINUED FROM 1B

car crash in 1997, always wanted a little girl and for that reason the baby should be called Diana. But she said she would prefer the name Charlotte.

Terry Hutt, 80, who was wearing a tailor-made suit emblazoned with a British flag pattern, said that he was delighted the new baby was a girl. “There’s room for more children in their family,” he said. “The main thing is that she’s healthy.”

The British public had bet heavily the baby would be a princess, and no less than Grandpa, Prince Charles, declared he hoped the new fourth-in-line would be a girl.

“We’re hoping for a granddaughter!” he told a veteran he met at an event at Windsor Castle

on Thursday.

The baby is historic because, under changed succession rules, she will be the first royal heir in nearly 1,000 years to keep her place in the succession even if her parents later have another boy.

Last time, for the July 2013 birth of the couple’s first child, Prince George of Cambridge, the media spent weeks on stakeout outside the hospital, sweltering in unusual heat and getting in the way of hospital patients and staff.

This time, palace and hospital officials, seeking to avoid the craziness of the last time, decreed a new system: Media organizations reserved a spot in the press pen in advance, and only after the duchess checked in would they be allowed to gather to await the birth.

Still, some die-hard royal fans, draped in Union Jacks, started

gathering days ago.

Before the birth, the atmosphere inside the hospital was “buzzing” and the nurses and midwives were excited, said Davina Johnson, 34, a mother who gave birth a few days ago and is on the same floor of St. Mary’s as the duchess.

The name of the infant will likely not be announced until the day after she leaves the hospital, at the earliest.

Britain’s leading politicians have been among the first to send their good wishes.

The birth of the royal baby comes as Britain is gripped by one of the closest general election campaigns — taking place Thursday — in decades. During the campaign, the leaders of the main political parties have mostly avoided talking about the royal

family, a divisive issue here and not one that is a clear vote-winner.

However, early Saturday, the incumbent, Prime Minister David Cameron of the Conservative Party, was the first of the party leaders to wish the Duchess of Cambridge well.

“With the rest of the nation, I’ll be wishing them well today, hoping for a healthy and happy outcome,” he said. Cameron’s main rival to occupy No. 10 Downing Street next week, Ed Miliband of the Labor Party, also offered his support, about an hour after the prime minister.

The former Kate Middleton, 33, had been expected to spend at least one night in the hospital, possibly receiving visitors such as her parents, Carole and Michael Middleton, and her siblings, Pippa and James. Prince Charles and his

wife, Camilla Duchess of Cornwall, also visited her when Prince George was born.

But that won’t be possible since she left the hospital Saturday. At least the waiting crowds got to see big brother George brought to the hospital to see his mum and new sibling.

Another thing people waited to see if whether Prince William would drive the family back home to Kensington Palace after they emerged from the hospital with the new baby and pose for the cameras. He did.

Last time, Will proved to be adept with the royal car seat, suggesting he had practiced beforehand, but this time he was a pro.

IN THE HOT SEAT HINT, HINT ... ?

An eagle-eyed tipster told Mashable on Saturday that the artwork associated with the NBC Nightly News podcast on iTunes changed from a photo of Brian Williams, featuring the title “Nightly News with Brian Williams,” to a more generic thumbnail with simple Nightly News branding. Mashable is the first to wonder whether it means he’s not coming back after his six-month suspension for fabricating tales about his reporting stint in Iraq.

L awrence J ournal -W orld - USA TODAY SUNDAY, MAY 3, 2015

Billionaire Warren Buffett was right where he wanted to be Saturday, hosting the annual “Buffettathon” for about 40,000 people and fielding any and all questions — from sugar soft drinks to wind energy — at the Berkshire Hathaway shareholder meeting, As he has done for years, Buffett, chairman and CEO of Berkshire, and Vice Chairman Charlie Munger held forth to an overflow crowd at an Omaha arena.

Buffett, at 84, has earned his title of “The Sage of Omaha,” not only for stewardship of a company that just reported a 10% jump in profit ($5.16 billion) Friday, but also because the company, and its subsidiaries, touch on many aspects of the American economy.

Berkshire owns roughly 80 subsidiaries, including clothing, furniture and jewelry firms. Its insurance and utility businesses typically account for more than half of the company’s net income.

It also has major investments in

such companies as Coca-Cola Co. and Wells Fargo & Co. Although there are few signs that Buffett is slowing down, one thing is certain — he has no plans to retire. He says he loves his work and remains in good health.

Still, gatherers at this annual meeting listened for any clues as to which, if any, of the company’s current managers will get the nod as CEO when Buffett leaves the scene.

No clues so far, but Buffett has made it clear that Berkshire plans to split his job into several parts when he leaves.

One topic up for lively discussion Saturday was Coca-Cola, a Berkshire investment, and the negative impact sugar is having on Americans’ health. Buffett conceded that “no one does well ignoring consumers” and said the food and beverage companies will have to respond to consumers’ changing concerns.

But he also acknowledged he sucks downs a lot of Coke himself. “A fourth of all my calories come from Coca-Cola,” he said.

“I’m one-quarter Coca-Cola.”

“If I would have been eating broccoli and Brussels sprouts, I

wouldn’t have lived as long,” he said, taking a piece of See’s Candies from Munger. “I wouldn’t be happy.”

To which Munger, 91, observed: “Sugar prevents premature softening of the arteries.”

“The way I look at it, it means leaving a few months early from the nursing home,” he said.

On energy, Buffett summoned Berkshire Hathaway Energy CEO Greb Abel to discuss how much energy the Des Moines utility MidAmerican Energy will get from wind when its current $900 million project goes onstream. The answer: 58%.

MidAmerican said Friday it will have invested nearly $6 billion in wind energy since 2004, creating 4,000 megawatts of wind energy, enough to power about 1.2 million homes.

Munger acknowledged that all the new sources of non-fossil energy will be disruptive to energy markets, but said the country has little choice. “What the hell do you do when you run out of fossil fuels?” he asked.

But not all questions were softballs. One stockholder, who said he was “disgusted,” raised

charges leveled against Clayton Homes, which builds, sells finances, leases and insures its manufactured houses.

The Center for Public Integrity and The Seattle Times have alleged that the company engages in predatory collection and lending practices.

Buffett defended the company, saying it has “behaved very well” and that he “makes no apologies whatsoever for Claytons’ lending practices.”

He noted that only about 3% of Clayton’s $12 billion mortgages on 300,000 homes turn bad.

As for his own investment strategy, Buffett said he and Munger don’t seek to “talk their book” — or pump up companies they’ve invested in, such as CocaCola, Wells Fargo and IBM. “If we talked our book, we would say pessimistic things,” Buffett said.

“Why would we want the stock to go up if we’re going to be buying” in a year or next year, he said. “People don’t seem to get that point.”

Added Munger: “If people weren’t so often wrong, we wouldn’t be so rich.”

Female CEOs’ paychecks fattest OLIVIER MORIN, AFP/GETTY IMAGES

ON THE FRONT BURNER ROBOT UPRISING Many people fear a jobless future — and their anxiety is not unwarranted: Gartner, an information technology research and advisory firm, predicts that one-third of jobs will be replaced by software, robots and smart machines by 2025, according to a Business Insider post. Artificial intelligence and robots are not just challenging blue-collar jobs, they are starting to take over white-collar professions as well.

Financial and sports reporters, online marketers, surgeons, anesthesiologists and financial analysts are already in danger of being replaced by robots, the post said.

Women’s average pay outpaces male counterparts Matt Krantz USA TODAY

What glass ceiling? The gender gap appears to be closed — at least when it comes to CEO pay.

So far, 21 of the 22 current female CEOs in the Standard & Poor’s 500 have reported their latest compensation, including Yahoo’s Marissa Mayer, defense contractor Lockheed Martin’s Marillyn Hewson and retailer TJX’s Carol Meyrowitz, and they were paid an average of $18.8 million during their latest fiscal years, according to a USA TODAY analysis of data from S&P Capital IQ and Bespoke Investment Group. That far exceeds the average $12.7 million paid to the 455 current male CEOs of companies in the S&P 500 that have reported compensation data for the same time period.

The compensation awarded to female CEOs, on average, also outstrips the $14.3 million average paid to all the CEOs of the 100 largest publicly held companies that had reported through early April, according to pay tracker Equilar and compensation consultant Towers Watson.

Now’s the time investors pay particularly close attention to what they’re paying the CEO as corporate filings — called proxy statements — are in from nearly all S&P 500 companies. Women have a long way to go to match or even rival men in the CEO office in terms of numbers, but they’ve

Total pay for this analysis was calculated using the Securities and Exchange Commission’s guidelines, which include salary and the present value of options and stock grants.

The only current S&P 500 female CEO missing from the analysis is Heather Bresch, who

has been at the helm of drugmaker Mylan since October 2007; 2014 compensation data were not available. Safra Ada Catz’s pay as co-president of Oracle was included in this analysis because she was named co-CEO after the end of the technology company’s fiscal year.

Yahoo CEO Mayer’s $42 million paycheck ranks her seventh among the most highly paid current CEOs of the year, just behind Viacom’s Philippe Dauman, who had a total reported pay package worth $44.3 million. Until Mayer’s 69% raise in 2014, the highest-paid current female CEO was Catz and the highest-paid current female CEO who was also CEO in the latest fiscal year was Hewson.

It’s been a great year financially for CEOs. And that’s especially true for the women who have risen to the top of the corporate ladder.

RETIREMENT

54% skipped For some, Social Security Poll: financial adviser taxes can really pile up Rodney Brooks

Russ Wiles

The Arizona Republic

Now that income-tax season has come and gone, plenty of seniors could benefit from a refresher course in Social Security tax basics. So could people in their 50s and early 60s, who will start collecting retirement benefits in the not-too-distant future.

Yes, it’s true that Social Security retirement benefits often are entirely tax-free and that millions of seniors don’t need to file income-tax returns. But for many others, taxes definitely apply on Social Security income.

This shouldn’t come as a surprise considering how prosperous many older Americans are. As a group, today’s seniors are more likely to own homes and less likely to be impoverished than younger Americans. Many people continue to work well into traditional retirement age, and millions of seniors have significant investment earnings and pension benefits to collect. Any of these factors can trigger tax obligations.

Here are three key issues:

1. Benefits may be taxed If Social Security is your only source of income, you probably don’t face income taxes and probably don’t need to file a return.

But if you collect income from other sources, taxes could apply on a portion of your benefits, possibly up to 50% or even up to 85% of benefits. The IRS features an interactive tax-calculator tool at irs.gov that can help you find out if benefits are taxable — and what proportion.

Another way to determine this quickly is to take half your Social Security benefits and add this to your other income, including taxexempt interest from investments such as municipal bonds.

If the total exceeds $25,000 and you are single or head of household, some Social Security benefits likely are taxable. If the total exceeds $32,000 and you are married filing a joint return, some benefits might be taxable.

It’s easy for seniors to land in the 28% federal tax bracket (or higher), one retiree says

“I think the RMDs should not be considered in the calculation triggering taxes on Social Security.”

Stan Bormann

counts and contributions made to non-deductible IRAs, money pulled from retirement accounts generally is taxable at ordinary income rates. This can cause the unintended consequence of making Social Security benefits partly taxable.

Stan Bormann, a 74-year-old retiree in Surprise, Ariz., notes that it’s fairly easy for seniors to find themselves in the 28% federal tax bracket (or higher) when taking out substantial sums in the form of required minimum distributions or RMDs from retirement accounts.

“This is nothing to complain about,” he said. “What I think is something to complain about is that often this triggers tax on up to 85% of our Social Security.”

Most people who invest diligently in retirement accounts at a young age probably don’t think much about this — they’re too busy building their nest eggs. Investors in traditional IRAs probably do recognize that their withdrawals will come out as ordinary income rather than at lower capital-gains rates. But what they might overlook is the additional tax consequence exerted by retirement withdrawals on Social Security benefits.

“I think the RMDs should not be considered in the calculation triggering taxes on Social Security,” Bormann said.

In short, if you take an IRA withdrawal such as a required distribution, that money could push you into the situation where some or most of your Social Security benefits become taxable. This is another reason

to plan your withdrawals. In particular, it could justify delaying the receipt of benefits while in your 60s and, instead, withdrawing more heavily from retirement accounts during those years.

3. Other penalties People owning 401(k)-style plans, traditional Individual Retirement Accounts and other retirement plans typically need to start pulling out money after reaching age 701⁄2. Failure to do so triggers a stiff penalty or tax equal to 50% of the required minimum distribution that was supposed to be taken but wasn’t.

The RMD is based on life expectancy and changes annually, so that each subsequent distribution eats up a slightly larger slice of the remaining funds. “You cannot keep retirement funds in your account indefinitely,” the IRS warns, and the RMD rule is designed to ensure that investors comply.

2. Withdrawals can trigger taxes Except for Roth Individual Retirement Ac-

Finances weigh heavily on many people’s minds, but more than half have never talked to a financial adviser, according to a new national poll conducted for the Indexed Annuity Leadership Council. Among the highlights of the survey of 3,017 adults, including 605 retirees and 1,664 people who are employed: u45% of employed adults plan to retire before age 67; 18% plan to retire at 67; 21% plan to work until 70. u56% of employed adults say they will have to keep working for financial reasons; 45% want to stay active; 34% enjoy working; 32% want to get more benefits. u54% of all those polled say they have never spoken to a financial adviser.

“This tells me ... we might have a retirement crisis on our hands from the standpoint of people not preparing,” says Jim Poolman, executive director of the Indexed Annuity Leadership Council.

“One of the things this project does is highlight the need for people to do long-term financial planning, especially retirement planning.”

Certified financial planner Jeff Rose of Carbondale, Ill., says he’s amazed at the number of people he meets who are five years from retirement and have never met with a financial adviser.

“It surprises me because I realize that there are so many little things that could have been improved on their financial situation if they’d seen an adviser,” he says. “If they’d made tweaks to their 401(k) or had someone review their IRAs, theoretically it could add up to tens of thousands of dollars,” says Rose, founder of GoodFinancialCents.com.

“I’ve talked to people who had the same investment for two decades and not realized that it was a really bad mutual fund,” he says.

“It’s really frustrating and disappointing because their 401(k) will probably be their largest incomeproducing asset in retirement.”

“You have an annual health checkup, so why wouldn’t you have an annual financial checkup?” Rose says.

Certified financial planner Mike Patton, president of Integrity Wealth Management in Baton Rouge, says people “should carefully project how much they need to accumulate and create a working budget to test the amount they can safely withdraw to meet their expenses in retirement.”

A bigger nest egg would allow retirees to travel more, which many want to do. The survey found 59% of retirees say traveling is the thing they most wish they could afford to do more.

Traveling is big among retirees who can afford it, says Nancy Schlossberg, 85, of Sarasota, Fla., author of Revitalizing Retirement and Retire Smart, Retire Happy.

Retirees often want to do something new and interesting that they can talk about, she says.

Tweaking a 401(k) could add ‘tens of thousands of dollars’ more for retirement

Q

I will be 66 in May 2015 and my wife will be 62 in June 2015.

I am four years older. My wife will start her Social Security at age 62. I will draw a spousal benefit after she files. Then, I’ll wait until age 70 to take my Social Security. Thoughts?

MICHAEL RUMP, SAGINAW, MICH.

Robert Powell

Special for USA TODAY

This is a good strategy. But if A your spouse and you each have long life expectancies, it will

not give your household the most lifetime benefits because your wife is taking a reduction by filing at 62, says Elaine Floyd, a certified financial planner and director of retirement and life planning at Horsesmouth, a New York City-based firm that provides education and news to financial advisers.

“In the long run, the four years of spousal benefits for you may not make up for that reduction,” Floyd says. “To maximize benefits when both spouses might be expected to live a long time, the wife

should file at 66.”

According to Floyd, if your wife’s maximum benefit with delayed credits (that is, her primary insurance amount times 1.32) would be higher than her spousal benefit (your primary insurance amount times .50), she should file a restricted application for the spousal benefit at 66 and switch to her own maximum benefit at 70. And then you should file at 70 as planned, Floyd says.

My employer froze my Q: defined benefit plan in 2006. I am 56 and the plan

will pay as a single life annuity $2,950 per month when I turn 65. The current value is $298,000. What would that amount need to grow to in order to pay the $2,950 per month? — James Stefka, China Spring, Texas A: So, the amount you receive from a defined benefit plan de-

pends on both financial and insurance assumptions that the plan’s administrator will make, says Gary Baker, president of Cannex USA in Doylestown, Pa. “In other words, how much of a return can they make on plan assets over time and how long do they think you will live,” he says.

“These assumptions can vary depending upon investment policy as well as demographics of the people in the group.”

Now, if you were to use $298,000 to purchase an annuity today at age 56 and defer the start of your income until 65, you would receive about $2,275 per month. “Given that your frozen plan is promising $2,950 per month for the same amount, your plan sponsor is either assuming a return much higher than the 10year pension annuity yield, as calculated by Cannex, of about 2.5%, or that the general health of participants in the plan is average,

rather than everyone being in excellent health, or both,” says Baker.

By contrast, if a 65-year-old were to purchase a pension annuity today with a payout of $2,275 per month starting immediately, Baker says, they would need a premium of about $415,000.

“Without knowing the specific assumptions of the plan or what the market would look like in nine years, this amount may be a good approximation of what to possibly expect when you turn 65,” he says.

For another point of view, we asked Drew Hueler, a business development manager of Hueler Companies in Eden Prairie, Minn., to run some numbers, too.

Here’s what Hueler had to say about current annuity rates.

Based on current rates, a monthly benefit of $2,950 per month starting at age 65 would cost an individual male $396,908.70 as a single premium if purchased at age 56. If you wanted to buy that same monthly income ($2,950) at age 65, it would cost you a single premium of $528,299.

Bottom line: You wouldn’t be able to purchase the monthly benefit your plan guarantees with the current account value.

MANNY PACQUIAO, LEFT, and Floyd Mayweather Jr. battle Saturday night in Las Vegas.

‘Money’ nudges Manny Las Vegas (ap) — Floyd Mayweather Jr. was money once again in the richest fight ever.

Mayweather used his reach and his jab Saturday night to frustrate Manny Pacquiao, piling up enough points to win a unanimous decision in their welterweight title bout. Mayweather remained unbeaten in 48 fights with a win that cemented his legacy as the best of his generation.

Pacquiao did what he wanted to do, chasing Mayweather around the ring most of the fight. But he never was able to land a sustained volume of punches, often looking frustrated as Mayweather worked his defensive wizardry once again.

Two ringside judges scored the fight 116-112, while the third had it 118-110.

The Associated Press had Mayweather ahead 115-113.

“I’m a calculated fighter, he is a tough competitor,” Mayweather said. “My dad wanted me to do more but Pacquiao is an awkward fighter.”

The richest fight in boxing history — a bout that made Mayweather at least $180 million — wasn’t the best. Far from it, with long periods where both fighters fought cautiously, looking for an edge.

There were no knockdowns, and neither fighter seemed terribly hurt at any time. Pacquiao landed probably the biggest punch in the fight in the fourth round — a left hand that sent Mayweather into the ropes — but he wasn’t able to consistently land against the elusive champion.

The fight was a chess match, with Mayweather using his jab to keep Pacquiao away most of the fight. Pacquiao tried to force the action, but Mayweather was often out of his reach by the time he found his way inside.

“I thought I won the fight, he didn’t do anything,” Pacquiao said. “I got him many times with a lot of punches.”

A sellout crowd at the MGM Grand arena roared every time Pacquaio threw a punch, but a good percentage of what he threw never landed.

The more Ben Heeney watched the NFL Draft at his parents’ Overland Park home Saturday, the more his irritation grew.

bine, Heeney knew his fellow draft classmates well.

With his competitive juices pumping on the biggest day of his football life, he kept Heeney seeing familiar names come off the board.

“I was starting to get (ticked) off,” the fiery Jayhawk related, “and I was just sitting there waiting.”

Even though four linebackers got picked ahead of him on Day 3 of the draft, Please see HEENEY, page 5C McDonald

JaCorey Shepherd knew if he watched the NFL Draft, the anticipation alone would give him fits.

So when the Kansas University cornerback arrived back in his hometown of Mesquite, Texas, he decided the family would kick back, instead of focusing on his big moment. Dominoes, spoons, Yahtzee — you name it, the Shepherd clan played it, all in the name of distraction.

It almost worked, too.

“I tried not to watch it, but I peeped a little bit,” Shepherd told the Journal-World. “I Shepherd mean, most people kept texting me about it anyway, so I really didn’t have to.”

Baylor turns back Kansas on Senior Day

By Bobby Nightengale bnightengale@ljworld.com

Kansas University softball players were hoping to give their seniors a few extra reasons to celebrate on their Senior Day, but a couple of bad innings cost them in a 6-1 loss against No. 14 Baylor on Saturday at Arrocha Ballpark at Rock Chalk Park.

The Jayhawks have lost four straight games and six of their last eight.

They honored their four seniors — Alicia Pille, Chanin

Naudin, Maddie Stein and Beth Wilson — in a ceremony after the game.

“I said that I was pretty much cried out by the end of the ceremony, because I cried so much yesterday and then prior to this,” Stein said with a laugh.

For the second straight day, the Bears (36-13 overall, 10-4 Big 12) hit the ball well in the early innings. They scored two runs in the first inning against KU starter Monique Wesley when Baylor’s Jordan Strickland

drilled a two-run double into the left-center gap, past diving KU center fielder Briana Evans.

In the second inning, Baylor opened the frame with four straight hits, including an RBI double from Kaitlyn Thumann and a RBI single from Lindsey Cargill.

“I was certainly hoping for a better outcome and a better start,” KU coach Megan Smith said. “I think we were flat. I think Monique started off extremely well, then our defense let her down. One of

those hits should have been caught and we have to do a better job defensively to get our pitcher some backup. I thought we let her down that first inning.”

The Jayhawks (35-12, 5-9) managed only one hit in the first three innings against Baylor right-hander Kendall Potts before they pieced together three straight hits from Daniella Chavez, Naudin and Jessie Roane in the fourth inning. Roane hit an Please see SOFTBALL, page 3C

American Pharoah dandy at Derby

VICTOR ESPINOZA RIDES AMERICAN PHAROAH to victory in the 141st running of the Kentucky Derby on Saturday at Churchill Downs in Louisville, Kentucky.

Louisville, Ky. (ap) — Brilliant but untested, American Pharoah was put to a fight in the Kentucky Derby and won.

Sent off as the 5-2 favorite by the record crowd of 170,513, the brown colt rallied in the stretch to beat Firing Line by a length Saturday and deliver trainer Bob Baffert’s fourth Derby win and first since 2002.

“It’s a fantasy moment for us,” said a joyous Baffert, surrounded by his three older sons and his young-

est, 10-year-old Bode, who jumped up and down and waved his arms in celebration.

Baffert also saddled thirdplace Dortmund, the other part of his lethal 1-2 punch in the 141st Derby. Firing Line finished second.

“We were ready to rumble,” Baffert said.

Dortmund set a leisurely pace with Firing Line tracking him closely in second.

American Pharoah sat comfortably in third down the backstretch.

That trio made it a threehorse race in the stretch, with none of the closers able to make up ground. American Pharoah angled outside and fought off a persistent Firing Line as Dortmund tired along the rail.

Victor Espinoza won his second consecutive Derby a year after being aboard California Chrome, and third overall.

“He’s been a special horse since I first rode him,” Espinoza said. “I feel like the luckiest Mexican on Earth.”

Woodland reaches Match Play semifinals San Francisco (ap) — Rory McIlroy had his own fight to worry about Saturday in the Match Play Championship. It was such a tense battle with Paul Casey that both had chances to win, and they had to return today to see who gets to keep playing.

Former Kansas University golfer and Lawrence resident Gary Woodland got up big early against John Senden and coasted to a 5-and-3 victory, fueled by memories of a bad loss last year that the powerful Kansan is determined to not let happen again. He will face Danny Willett of England, who beat his third straight countryman with a 4-and-3 win over Tommy Fleetwood.

McIlroy has gone 17 holes without the lead, though he’s had his chances.

With the match all square when Casey took three putts from the fringe on the 17th, McIlroy missed a 12-foot birdie putt for the win on the 18th.

Casey left his winning birdie putt one turn short on the second extra hole.

Given another chance, McIlroy hit the lip on a 6-foot birdie putt on the third extra hole.

Even by then, it was too dark.

They will resume at 6:45 a.m. today on the par-5 opening hole for the right to play Jim Furyk, who reached his first semifinal with a 4-and-2 victory over Louis Oosthuizen.

The quarterfinals began late so that it could end in prime time on the East Coast, a move that backfired when McIlroy and Casey went overtime.

“I had a couple of opportunities to close it out and couldn’t quite convert,” McIlroy said.

“Come back in the morning and try again.”

Casey said they weren’t sure they could even play the final hole, but they gave it a try.

Casey blew his tee shot well to the right on the reachable 16th, leaving a flop shot to a tight pin that was impossible to get close.

He was saved by McIlroy’s miss.

McIlroy never had a chance to get to the big fight in Las Vegas. It would have been close even if he had won his match quickly, as he did Saturday morning in a 6-and-5 victory over Hideki Matsuyama. It was going to be a race just to get in front of a TV in San Francisco to watch Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather Jr. McIlroy must have felt the fatigue from his own bout.

Casey moved ahead with a birdie on the par-5 fifth hole, went 2 up with a birdie on the par-5 seventh and never trailed.

McIlroy cut into the lead with a 20-foot birdie putt on the 10th and hole and they pulled even when Casey bogeyed the 13th.

Woodland has had the easiest time.

He was 1 down to Jimmy Walker through 15 holes in his opening match Wednesday, and that was the last time Woodland has trailed this week. He got off to his best start yet against Senden by starting with five birdies in seven holes to go 5 up and the Australian couldn’t catch up.

“It’s nice to be up early. It’s nice have some par 5s early,” Woodland said. “There are a lot of long holes early, and that’s to my advantage when I’m driving it well.”

Woodland also is fueled by memories of last year when he was 3 up on Graeme McDowell with three holes to play and wound up losing in the opening round. Woodland brought a different attitude this year.

“I’m pedal to the metal every round up here, every hole,” he said. “Never giving anybody any hope is the key. And fortunately, I’ve done that.”

Next up is Willett, the 27-year-old from England who had to get through three of his countrymen to reach the semifinals in his Match Play debut.

victory and the Staples Center crowd went crazy after the Clippers advanced to the Western Conference semifinals for just the fourth time in franchise history.

The Clippers, who faltered at home in Games 2 and 5, move on to face the Rockets starting Monday night in Houston.

“It’s only round one, but that team over there, I mean, it’s crazy that this was the first round of the playoffs,” Paul said.

Paul scored 18 of his 27 points in the second half, including four big 3-pointers.

Clippers 111, Spurs 109 Los Angeles — It figured that the most entertaining firstround series in the NBA playoffs would come down to a play involving Chris Paul and Tim Duncan.

Paul, who willed himself back from an early hamstring injury, banked in a shot over Duncan with a second left to lift Los Angeles to a wild victory in Game 7 on Saturday night that eliminated the defending NBA champion San Antonio Spurs from the playoffs.

After Duncan made two free throws to tie it with 8.8 seconds left, Paul drove the right side. He originally was covered

by Danny Green before Duncan came over to help. Paul put up a one-handed shot over the 39-year Spurs star that went in as he was falling away.

Paul said coach Doc Rivers called him and Blake Griffin over at the end of the morning walk-through to talk about lastshot scenarios.

“We’ve been in that situation a lot of times already this year, and most of the time I hadn’t made it,” Paul said. “We talked about it, and finally it worked when we needed it.”

Rivers said Paul is “just a tough kid. He’s a street fighter.

I mean, he really is. I love him to death because of his will.”

Duncan said Paul’s shot was “just unbelievable. I know he was playing a little hurt, and he played through all that, found ways to get it done. I mean, just an unbelievable last shot over two of us. He’s just a great leader, and it was amazing to watch. I wish I wasn’t on the other end.”

Duncan had 27 points and 11 rebounds, his sixth doubledouble of the series.

Paul missed the final 2 minutes of the first quarter and the first 51⁄2 minutes of the second quarter. He appeared to get hurt as he dribbled up court before making a 3-pointer. He sat on the bench with his head in his hands.

“I thought about the team and all the things we’d been through,” Paul said. “I know that if it was any other guy on our team in a situation like this, they wouldn’t lay down, so I just tried to find a way.”

Blake Griffin had 24 points, 13 rebounds and 10 assists for Los Angeles.

The Clippers trailed by five points with 5:42 left before Griffin made two free throws and J.J. Redick a 3-pointer to tie it at 97 with 3:58 to go.

The teams traded leads during the final minutes, with Duncan, Kawhi Leonard and Manu Ginobili scoring for the Spurs and Barnes hitting a 3-pointer for the Clippers.

KANSAS BASEBALL

Baylor hangs on against Jayhawks

By Benton Smith basmith@ljworld.com

A seventh-inning home run from Kansas University freshman Owen Taylor gave the Jayhawks just a momentary boost Saturday afternoon at Hoglund Ballpark, where KU’s bullpen faltered in the final two frames of a 6-3 loss to Baylor.

Kansas trimmed the Bears’ lead to 2-1 when Taylor smashed a Nick Lewis pitch out to rightcenter field. BU (18-28) snuffed out the home team’s momentum, though, once starter Drew Morovick ran out of gas.

The senior righty from Hemet, California, exited the one-run game having thrown 105 pitches and allowed six hits.

“Our pitching came out today and Drew gave us a good seven innings. We competed offensively all day. We hit the ball hard,” Taylor said.

Morovick (4-4) left in the top of the eighth with a runner on, and the Bears eventually turned that

“We weren’t gonna use (Stephen) Villines on back-

to-back nights,” KU coach Ritch Price said of turning to the Jayhawks’ sophomore closer in the situation. “Unfortunately, we couldn’t stop the bleeding.”

BU starter Lewis didn’t dominate (no strikeouts, four hits in 6 2/3 innings) but he kept Kansas hitters off balance, Price said issues in the batter’s box

Big names to host camps gbedore@ljworld.com

Some heavy-hitters in the basketball world will be holding camps in Lawrence in coming months.

Here’s one-stop for information on some of the upcoming events.

Kansas University coach Bill Self will hold his annual camp for boys grades 3 to 12 on June 7-11 and again June 14-18 in KU’s basketball facilities. Self’s Parent/ Child camp is June 12-13 and Team Camp is June 19-21. Details are available at billselfbasketballcamp.com n Former KU guard Ben McLemore of the Sacramento Kings will hold a camp (boys and girls 5-14, all skill levels) June 22-24 at Sports Pavilion Lawrence at Rock Chalk Park. Details at isgcamps.com n Former KU forward Wayne Simien’s Called to Greatness camp for girls second to 12th grade will be July 1-2 and boys third through sixth grade and seventh through 12th grade July 7-8 at Sports Pavilion Lawrence. Details at http://calledtogreatness.com/2230/ Basketball-Camps n Former KU guard Mario Chalmers of the Miami Heat is bringing his Miracle Shot Basketball Camp to Lawrence after holding it in Olathe the past several years.

The camp, for boys and girls sixth through 12th grade, will be held July 18-22 at Sports Pavilion

RBI single, scoring Chavez, but Potts induced two pop flies to end any further damage.

KU nearly added on in the fifth inning when Chaley Brickey hit a twoout double to left and Stein drew a walk, but Chavez flied out to the warning track in right field. The Jayhawks went 2-for-11 at the plate with runners on base.

“I think we just weren’t attacking them like we know we can,” Naudin said. “If we just play like we’re capable of, we’re going to hit those pitchers very well. We just

Meanwhile, the Sunflower Showcase AAU Tournament moves from Shawnee to Lawrence this year. It will be held July 23-26 at Sports Pavilion Lawrence at Rock Chalk Park. No word yet on which top prospects will be coming to town.

Last year’s tourney in Shawnee featured eventual Arizona signee Allonzo Trier and many other standouts. Information at sunflowershowcase.com.

There’s been no word yet whether Cole Aldrich of the New York Knicks will be bringing his camp to Lawrence again this summer.

Self, by the way, will also hold his ProCamp for boys and girls grades 1-12 on Aug. 8-9 at SM West High School in Overland Park. Details at http://www.procamps. com/BillSelf.

Also, KU’s basketball team will play Team Canada at 7 p.m., both June 23 and 26 in Kansas City’s Sprint Center. l Williams, Mack update: Former VCU commit Kenny Williams, a 6-3 senior combo guard from Bird High in Chesterfield, Virginia, committed to North Carolina on Saturday. Another former VCU commit, Tevin Mack, is reportedly considering KU, Texas and Georgia, perhaps others.

Mack, who is ranked No.

61 nationally by Rivals. com, is a 6-6 small forward from Dreher High in Columbia, South Carolina. Many believe he will simply follow former VCU coach Shaka Smart to Texas. l Gibbs denies rumors: Former Seton Hall guard Sterling Gibbs denied rumors that he has committed to be a graduate transfer at UConn.

“I have not made a decision on where I will be going next year. I have not committed to another school,” the 6-foot-2 standout wrote on Twitter.

Jon Rothstein of CBSsports.com says Gibbs “could have a DeAndre Kane like impact next season.” He will not have to sit out a year since he’s graduated.

“Two years ago Iowa State was a borderline NCAA team before adding Kane as an immediately eligible transfer.

His addition propelled the Cyclones to the 2014 Big 12 tournament title and a berth in the NCAA Tournament’s Sweet 16. Sterling Gibbs could have a similar type of impact depending on where he lands next season. The 6-foot-2 guard is arguably the sexiest name on college basketball’s free agent market because he can transfer without sitting out a season and is coming off a year where he averaged 16.3 points and 3.8 assists at Seton Hall,” Rothstein wrote.

weren’t being ourselves, trying to do too much.”

Baylor scored two more runs in the fourth inning against KU reliever Sophia Templin, who gave up five hits and zero earned runs in six innings while striking out three.

“We weren’t as focused and Baylor jumped on it,” Smith said. “You can’t give a team like Baylor opportunities like we did and expect to win the game.”

Though the seniors didn’t have their day go as planned, it didn’t take away from their excitement and emotions when they were honored afterward. They were proud of the way they’ve lifted the program to new heights, including an appearance in the NCAA Tourna-

ment last year and a new ballpark.

“There’s a lot of emotions of course,” Naudin said. “For me, this has just been such a special place for me for the past four years. I just love it so much to where it just like makes you reflect on all that you’ve done and how much this program has grown in the four years.”

The Jayhawks will conclude their series against Baylor in their final home game at noon today.

have troubled KU (20-27) of late.

“If you’re gonna be a good offensive club, you’ve gotta be good one through nine,” the coach

said. “If you’ve got four guys struggling at the plate, obviously you’re reducing the number of quality at bats and opportunities for scoring.

You’re seeing the ramifications of that. We had opportunities, and we couldn’t get a clutch hit.”

Shortstop Matt McLaughlin went 0-for4 and finds himself in a freshman funk.

“He was hitting .320 two weeks ago,” Price said. “I’m gonna stick with him. He’s a really good player.”

Once Baylor added two more runs in the ninth, an RBI-double from Connor McKay in the final inning meant little for Kansas.

The late-inning letdown left the series tied at 1 headed into today’s 1 p.m. game.

Jayhawks land NFL deals Although only three Kansas University football products heard their names called during the NFL Draft on Saturday, a number of their fellow Jayhawks signed free-agent deals in the hours that followed.

Wide receiver Nigel King, who left KU early after his junior season to turn pro, reached an agreement with Miami.

Edge rusher and linebacker Michael Reynolds signed with Tampa Bay, home of former KU standout Bradley McDougald.

Wide receiver Nick Harwell, who played one season as a Jayhawk after transferring from Miami (Ohio), got a deal with Dallas.

Speed demon Tony Pierson, who played both running back and receiver at Kansas, joined Chicago.

Safety Cassius Sendish took an offer from Cleveland.

In the draft, Oakland selected linebacker Ben Heeney (fifth round) and cornerback Dexter McDonald (seventh round).

In the sixth round, Philadelphia picked JaCorey Shepherd.

Stigler powers Kansas track Senior Michael Stigler was victorious again in the 400 hurdles to lead Kansas University’s track and field team Saturday in the Rock Chalk Classic at Rock Chalk Park.

Stigler nearly duplicated his world-leading time of 48.44 seconds from the Texas Relays, as he clocked in at 48.86.

Sydney Conley highlighted the meet for the KU women by winning the 100 and long jump.

NFL DRAFT

L awrence J ournal -W orld

Heeney CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1C

Heeney finally calmed down when the Oakland Raiders chose him with the fourth pick in Round 5.

“Everything works out, everything happens for a reason,” the 2014 first-team All-Big 12 linebacker told the JournalWorld. “I’m headed to the Raiders, so I’m excited.”

Huddled around the living room TV with family and friends, Heeney said the party hushed when his phone rang and an Oakland area code popped up on the screen.

He answered the call and began talking with a Raiders scout as nearby his mother, Mitzi, began crying and his dad, Joe, got teary-eyed.

When Heeney hung up the call, all he could do was whisper the news: Oakland was about to draft him.

The room erupted in response. Amid the frenzy, the new member of the Raiders couldn’t even recall what the scout or Oakland general manager Reggie McKenzie had told him minutes after becoming the 140th overall player selected and, as it turned out, an NFL teammate of fellow Jayhawk Dexter McDonald, whom Oakland chose with the 25th pick of Round 7.

After growing up in Hutchinson as a Kansas City fan, Heeney will head to California for the first time in his life later this week.

“I never thought I’d be an Oakland Raider,” he admitted.

Heeney had zero interest in discussing the Chiefs or any perceived slights, because this day was about his future, not any past allegiances.

“Man, it’s what I’ve been working for since I was in third grade,” Heeney said. “I finally made it. A team’s taking a chance on me, and they won’t be disappointed.”

One of the first orders of business became sending family members out

would take Shepherd with the 15th pick of Round 6.

He aspired to go in an earlier round, and as he heard via friends and family Friday night, ESPN draft guru Mel Kiper Jr. had the 5-foot11, 199-pound corner in his top 10 available players during Round 3, long before the Eagles grabbed him.

Every time someone questioned teams passing on the ball-hawk defensive back who intercepted three passes and broke up 16 during his senior year, Shepherd reminded them: “That 40 time is big.”

A torn left hamstring compromised the corner’s ability to impress NFL scouts in drills leading up to the draft.

When he completed the 40-yard-dash with times of 4.65 and 4.68 seconds at KU’s pro day, they came three days after the injury.

“Now it’s time to prove that my 40 time is not an issue,” Shepherd said, adding he has run in the 4.4 to 4.3 range since he moved from receiver to corner his sophomore year.

The way the competitive corner sees it, he covered receivers in the pass-happy Big 12 without becoming a secondary turnstile. And the decision-makers in Philadelphia’s war room agreed. Shepherd spoke with head coach Chip Kelly, defensive coordinator Bill Davis and defensive backs

to buy Raiders hats and T-shirts, but Heeney’s focus quickly shifted to his professional future. Considered undersized for an inside linebacker at 6 feet, 231 pounds, his goal is to play for Oakland’s defense in 2015. If playing on every special teams unit first gets him there, that’s fine by him.

“I’m the kind of guy who’s just gonna go in there and work my (butt) off,” Heeney said, “and we’ll see what happens when the season comes.”

ESPN’s Todd McShay said Heeney might fit better in Oakland as a weakside linebacker in coordinator Ken Norton Jr.’s defense. The KU product racked up 127 total tackles in his senior season and enters his first spring as a professional with confidence.

“I think I can play anywhere,” he said, “so anywhere they want me to play, I’m comfortable.”

Once things settled down, Heeney planned to research Oakland’s roster to get a better sense of how he’ll fit in.

The whirlwind of the draft and the uncertainty that precedes it left him figuring things out on the fly. For example, he doesn’t know yet whether he’ll be back from the West Coast in time to participate in graduation at KU. But Heeney can rest easy now, and heed the words he heard from some other Kansas pros last weekend at the spring game.

“Don’t worry about where you go, how late you go, how early you go,” Heeney said of the advice he picked up from Denver linebacker Steven Johnson and others. “Just wherever you’re going, get in there ready to make an impact like you always have. Just keep playing the way you play, and you’ll be fine.”

Now that the nerves of draft day have subsided, Heeney said he can toss aside that anger he felt toward teams that passed on him.

“I’m more happy to be a Raider,” he said.

coach Cory Undlin on the phone. He said they told him they loved how he played at Kansas, and they understood he slipped in the draft because of his injury.

Philadelphia had Shepherd in for a predraft visit, and the new Eagle hit it off with the DB coach.

“He was hoping that I stayed low-key, because he really liked me. He’d seen that I had game,” Shepherd said.

“He knew that teams would be worried about my hamstring, but that wasn’t something he was worried about.”

Undlin, Shepherd figured, could make a simple case for the KU product: “This guy can ball. He can help.”

As for the hamstring, Shepherd estimates it’s at 99.5 percent now.

That’s what Philadelphia was betting on, and now the cornerback feels confident he’ll arrive as a rookie who will compete for playing time.

“I’m ready for it,” Shepherd said. “I’m ready to prove to all those teams that passed on me that they missed out on something that could’ve been good, just because of my hamstring.”

First, though, he’ll have to get back to Lawrence. The senior management and leadership major has a Monday morning test and presentations the following two days.

“I’ve definitely gotta finish strong in the classroom, man,” Shepherd said. “I’ve worked too hard. I can’t let that slip right now.”

Raiders make McDonald’s day

By Benton Smith basmith@ljworld.com

Dexter McDonald sat in his family’s Kansas City, Missouri, home Saturday watching the NFL Draft for the third day in a row.

The cornerback from Kansas University didn’t start second-guessing himself necessarily as round Nos. 4 through 6 went by, but he ceded during Round 7 to the notion he might have to take the free agent route to achieve his dream.

Only 14 picks remained in the final round when Oakland made McDonald the 25th pick of the seventh round (242nd overall).

“It’s definitely an intense feeling,” the happy new Raider told the Journal-World. “You’re just sitting there, and you think

you’re gonna get drafted. But you never know.

It’s one of those feelings where you’re just wondering what you could’ve done differently.”

Once McDonald and his family saw his name pop up on the TV screen, relief and joy overcame him, all at once. He almost forgot getting picked by Oakland meant he would remain teammates with Kansas linebacker Ben Heeney, selected earlier by the Raiders, in the fifth round.

“I was just happy my name got called,” McDonald said. “After I sat there for about 30 seconds, it hit me.”

A physical, 6-foot-1 corner who picked off two passes, broke up 13 others and made 28 solo tackles his senior season at KU, his pro day put him in position to get chosen. Mc-

Donald stood out as NFL scouts watched in late March, with a 4.42-second 40-yard dash, a vertical jump of 40 feet and 1/2 inch and a broad jump of 11 feet, 2 inches. Those numbers, he said, kept him from going undrafted.

“I was able to show teams I was not only a tall corner, but athletic, as well,” the 200-pound defensive back said. “I still think I was under the radar. I think I had great film, and once that was able to be looked at because of what I did at my pro day, that definitely helped me a lot.”

A product of Rockhurst High in Kansas City, McDonald won’t have to get rid of any Chiefs gear or sever any ties now that he is aligned with his hometown’s rival Raiders. He didn’t grow up as a fan.

“I probably went to one game at the Chiefs’ stadium my whole life,” he shared, noting Dante Hall and Priest Holmes were the main attractions at the time.

“It’s definitely crazy being from Kansas City, and I know a lot of people are Chiefs fans that I grew up with,” McDonald added, “and now they’re gonna be rooting for the Raiders, because I play for the Raiders.”

Had it not been for his stellar pro day, McDonald’s path to playing in the NFL could’ve been even more difficult than it will as a seventh-round pick. But he said he’ll approach things now with the same hunger.

“Even if I didn’t get drafted, I was gonna prepare myself to make a team,” he said. “I was determined.”

Chiefs welcome cornerback Peters Kansas City, Mo. (ap) — John Dorsey knew people would have questions if the Kansas City Chiefs chose Marcus Peters in the first round of the draft, so the general manager kept team owner Clark Hunt in the loop.

Dorsey didn’t need his approval, Hunt said, but he got it anyway.

So despite a background that included getting dismissed from Washington’s program last season, Dorsey chose Peters with the No. 18 overall pick. And two days later, Hunt and Dorsey both said they believe Peters has put all those transgressions behind him.

“In the preparation for the draft, the weeks lead-

ing up to it, John mentioned to me that Marcus might be a player who’s available who we would have interest in,” Hunt said, shortly after presenting Peters with a No. 22 jersey during an introductory news conference Saturday.

“When we got around to the draft Thursday night,” Hunt said, “we talked about it again, and he said, ‘Look, we’re good. We feel our support structure here is great.’”

Peters said that his problems at Washington stemmed primarily from a coaching change that he acknowledged not handling well. But he also said that he’s matured since getting kicked off

the team — he also has a 6-month old son, Carson, that has helped with that. And he pointed to the fact that he’s reconciled with Huskies coach Chris Petersen as evidence of it.

“Having the experience I did at U-dub caused me to learn from it,” Peters said. “I’m going to attach to some veterans just to learn how to be a pro, to learn how to conduct myself as a man.”

The Chiefs filled a major need by choosing Peters with the No. 18 overall pick, then added depth by taking Oregon State cornerback Steven Nelson with a third-round pick Friday night.

Kansas City also addressed its offensive

line by taking Missouri’s Mitch Morse in the second round, a gaping hole at wide receiver by trading up for Georgia’s Chris Conley in the third round, and then added depth across the board on Saturday in the final rounds of the draft.

The Chiefs started by choosing Georgia linebacker Ramik Wilson in the fourth round. They added another linebacker, D.J. Alexander of Oregon State, and Illinois State tight end James O’Shaughnessy in the fifth. Defensive tackle Rakeem Nunez-Roches from Southern Miss went in the sixth round, and Northern Illinois wide receiver Da’Ron Brown in the seventh.

WHEN ONE BAND ISN’T ENOUGH

By Fally Afani

Special to the Journal-World

n the Lawrence music scene, sometimes you might think you’re seeing double, triple or even quadruple. That’s because in a town like this, with a strong contingent of musicians, some artists flex their muscles across several projects. Here are just some of the musicians you can see moonlighting throughout Lawrence.

Chris Luxem Bands: CS Luxem (songwriter, vocals, guitar); Your Friend (guitar, vocals); Karma Vision (guitar,

keyboards, vocals); OILS (guitar, keyboards, bass, vocals) Chris Luxem is one of the busiest music-makers in Lawrence. In addition to his own project, CS Luxem, he plays guitar and provides vocals for Your Friend, Karma Vision and OILS. Playing in so many bands can create a hectic schedule with endless practices, but Luxem says it helps keep him on his toes. “I have to bring my own aesthetics and instincts to the practices and

performances, and figure out ways to utilize them in a manner that still highlights and accentuates the main songwriter of whichever project we are working on during that time,” he says. “I am constantly learning and working towards bettering myself musically… If I hear a song or see a show that blows my mind, it only makes me want to work that much harder; it’s all built on collaboration.”

Avengers’ ‘Ultron’ sports creative teamwork

T

he weight of responsibility hangs over every character in Marvel’s “The Avengers: Age of Ultron.” It is a weight no doubt felt by writer/director Joss Whedon, who not only shepherded 2012’s “The Avengers” to its place as the third-biggest movie ever, but who also looked over and touched up scripts from every movie of Phase Two of the Marvel shared-universe films.

His last film for the Marvel-Disney empire opens this weekend, and “The Avengers: Age of Ultron” now finds Whedon in the ironic position of having to accommodate future installments by introducing characters and plot points. An overstuffed plot and a heavy concentration on action contribute to a breakneck pace and general lack of surprise in the movie, which mirrors the structure of the first film.

That isn’t to say that the movie isn’t at times wildly entertaining, maintaining that touch of sparkling wit Whedon is known for, even in the darkest hour. Another overriding theme is man vs. himself, as Whedon forces his heroes to reckon with their own hubris, fueling some very poor choices that result in something a whole lot more threatening than the neo-Nazi terrorist organization Hydra.

Ever since going through a wormhole in space to sacrifice himself in the last “Avengers,” Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.) has been tormented by nightmares. He wants to eliminate the need for a superhero supergroup by creating a shield for the planet that would defend against alien invaders and create “peace in our time” — a sort of advanced version of Reagan’s “Star Wars” defense umbrella perhaps (which always seemed better suited to a comic book anyway).

Through Stark’s meddling, and with the reluctant help of Bruce Banner (Mark Ruffalo), a sentient being named Ultron is created, and first visualized in floating, color-coded CGI blobs that look like the final showdown between Eric Bana and his father Nick Nolte in Ang Lee’s 2003 “Hulk.”

Ultron takes the form of a robot and immediately downloads all of the information in the world from the Internet, quickly determining that world peace can only be achieved through — yikes! — the extinction of the human race.

The prospect of a sentient entity roaming the Internet at lightspeed to gather information might seem more crazy and subversive if Scarlett Johansson (who plays Avenger Natasha Romanoff) hadn’t already done it twice since “The Avengers” — in Spike Jonze’s sublime love story “Her” and Luc Besson’s silly actioner “Lucy.”

On the other hand, James Spader’s very recognizable voice gives Ultron more than sheer menace. He suffers from a kind of existential ennui, something each of the individual Avengers is dealing with as well.

Constantly frustrated by the way humans think, he also has a really short temper. Even if Ultron’s logic is hard to follow, Spader gives the baddie an estimable soul, as

“The Avengers: Age of Ultron” has some new blood for the Marvel universe: Aaron Taylor-Johnson as Quicksilver and Elizabeth Olsen as the Scarlet Witch. he jumps from robot to robot.

On a lighter note, “The Avengers: Age of Ultron” contains more blatantly cinematic fight scenes than the first film and all kinds of creative examples of superhero teamwork. In “The Avengers,” Whedon explored what it would be like for these tremendous egos to meet for the first time. Now that they are working together, he pairs up weapons like Thor’s hammer and Captain America’s shield to create one dangerous, speed-of-light projectile. A moment like this does more than merely advance the action. It reinforces the characters of these boy scouts (Chris Hemsworth and Chris Evans, respectively) from different universes, and Whedon expands this during the film, incorporating little moments of character into most of the action scenes.

Speaking of character: For all of the hype you’ll doubtless hear about how action-packed “The Avengers: Age of Ultron” is, let it be known that almost nobody in the superhero world can juggle an ensemble this big and still give each character a defining moment like Whedon.

Bryan Singer figured this out in “X2,” but his latest X-Men movie “Days of Future Past” has at least five or six mutants whose names I can’t even remember.

Clint Barton (Jeremy Renner) has gotten short shrift in every Marvel movie until now, which perhaps explains why in “The Avengers: Age of Ultron,” he becomes the first Avenger to have a family. His homestead is pure oldschool Americana, out in the country and cut off from all things modern and scary. Besides providing a sharply contrasting backdrop for these larger-thanlife costumed heroes, it serves as a symbolic nod to the western, which is the genre the film fits into the most.

Whedon is drawing from and reinforcing other classic themes throughout “The Avengers: Age of Ultron.”

New superpowered characters like Scarlet Witch (Elizabeth Olsen) and Quicksilver (Aaron Taylor-Johnson) are out for pure revenge. A subplot between Hulk and Black Widow has echoes of “King Kong.” Because Whedon understands how these conflicts work, it’s kind of a disappointment that he isn’t given

the complete freedom from a plot standpoint to really dig into them. Another new creation, the Vision (Paul Bettany), is barely given any explanation at all.

There are responsibilities, after all, in long-term episodic storytelling. The origi-

nal cut of “The Avengers: Age of Ultron” was around three hours long, but it’s been pared down to two hours and 10 minutes, which seems more like a commercial decision than anything else. (It allows for more show times in a single day, and there-

fore bigger grosses.)

This is completely understandable — and maybe three hours is too long to maintain a consistent pace — but with the new characters, all of their story arcs and multiple overarching themes, I’d be very curious to see a film that

gives those elements time to breathe.

Still, for an overstuffed spectacle, “The Avengers: Age of Ultron” looks inward more often than most.

“The Avengers: Age of Ultron” is showing everywhere in the universe and is rated PG-13 for intense sequences of sci-fi action, violence and destruction, suggestive comments, and semi-obscure pop culture references.

Band

In addition to the companionship, Thomblison also enjoys spending time with musicians he looks up to.

“Writing and playing with some of my favorite local songwriters has enhanced my own abilities, and I hear my own sensibilities rub off on them,” he says. “We are but aural flowers spreading idea pollen.”

Taryn Blake Miller Bands: Your Friend (guitar, vocals); CS Luxem (guitar, bass, vocals); OILS (guitar); Hush Machine (drums) Taryn Blake Miller is the force behind Your Friend but also moonlights with CS Luxem and has even hinted at working in another project. But in the past she’s popped up in OILS and Hush Machine. It’s not uncommon to see bands call upon her expertise every now and then.

“I like to be a ‘sixth man’ when the opportunity is there. I played keys at a couple of Psychic Heat shows and had the absolute best time,” says Miller, who notes that seeing bands borrow musicians from the Whatever Forever music label is fairly common.

“It’s not uncommon for each member to be in several other projects.

With Whatever Forever, it’s really incestuous in that band members are really shared, so scheduling is generally built in, in that way.”

Jones says he finds the process satisfying.

“Some bands are rewarding because I’m surrounded by people I enjoy spending time with. Other bands are Jason Jones rewarding because of Bands: Black Luck the challenge they pose (guitar); 40 Watt Dreams to me musically or (drums) ; Wells the Trav- instrumentally,” he says. eler (drums as a band, “Some satisfy a particular multiple instruments as a musical itch I have at the duo with Danny McGaw) moment, but more often Another multi-instruthan not it is a conflumentalist, Jason Jones ence of all these rewards currently plays guitar and more.” for Black Luck (and has Because the bands played drums for them Jones plays with come in the past), drums for from different genres in 40 Watt Dreams, and the scene, scheduling is a several instruments with bit of a challenge.

Danny McGaw in Wells “You have to be the Traveler. Like Miller, straightforward with he also occasionally pops your schedule between up on various instrubands and always follow

what I kind of consider to be the ‘golden rule’ of multibandedness: Honor what is booked first,” he says, although he longs for a lifestyle where he plays music every night of the week. “Though I am always busy, it turns out that with the ebb and flow of multiple band dynamics, it sometimes takes being in two to three bands to play two to three times a week on the average.”

James Thomblison Bands: Arc Flash (guitar, vocals); No Cave (bass, vocals); CS Luxem (bass); Mau Bones (solo, loops) Although he plays in a lot of newer bands, James Thomblison has found a way to spread

himself across several projects. You’ll most often see him playing guitar behind the mic in Arc Flash, as well as lending a musical hand to No Cave and CS Luxem. He occasionally makes loops by himself as Mau Bones.

Since so many of these acts are fresh, Thomblison is working on fine-tuning his skill.

“I enjoy being in multiple projects because it helps me develop a better ear and I can try out different tricks in varying scenarios,” he says. “Being in a band is also a great way to hang out with your friends, so it rules to get to do it all the time. I feel lucky so many people want to make music with me.”

Mark Osman Bands: CS Luxem, Arc Flash, Karma Vision, OILS and The Wandering Lake (drums in all) Speaking of busy drummers, Mark Osman takes the cake. His impressive style is unlike any other in Lawrence, and he finds a way to tailor it carefully to each band he’s in.

But playing in so many projects is what helps him spread out all the drumming styles and techniques bouncing around in his head.

“It’s great having multiple projects to put creative energy into because I’m not trying to force all of my creative output into one band or a particular style,” he says.

“It makes it easier to really listen and engage with each of the different groups and add what a particular project is actually needing, instead of feeling like I have this one mode of expression and I have to cram all of the creative energy I have into a box that doesn’t always fit.”

In the end, Osman echoes the sentiments of so many of his peers.

“Being in several projects means I play a lot of shows, which for me is a deeply rewarding part of being a musician,” he says. “I get to play out more nights than I don’t when I’m at home, and frequently tour across the country. I’m still waiting tables when I’m home to pay the bills, and rarely get enough sleep. But otherwise, I’m surrounded by people I love and basically living my dream most days. I’m probably more genuinely content than I’ve ever been, and every year it gets better and I get closer to finding a better balance.

John Benda Bands: Black Luck (drums); Spencer Mackenzie Brown (drums); solo (guitar) You don’t normally associate aggressive punk rock with smooth folk-pop, but John Benda has found a balance between the two.

He divides his time drumming with punk rockers Black Luck and indie folk-rocker Spencer Mackenzie Brown.

He also plays guitar as a solo artist, and is the interim music director at Lawrence Wesleyan Church.

Spreading himself across two completely different genres is necessary for a busybody like Benda.

“I find that having more than one musical outlet keeps me from feeling like I have to shoehorn all of my musical ideas and ambitions into one band,” he says. “As a drummer, one band just isn’t enough space for all the stuff I want to try. I want to blow off steam and get sweaty, I want to play interesting pop music, I want to do something that’s rooted in my faith, and I want to write my own songs.

If I was trying to do all of that in one project, it would be chaotic and stupid.”

Journal-World drone could offer a different perspective

R

ecently, editors at the Lawrence Journal-World approached the photo department about incorporating video and still photographs shot from a drone into our reportage. Initially, the idea was met with some hesitation, in part because of the potential costs. But speaking at least for myself, I also was a bit nervous about crashing the thing and getting blamed for trashing a piece of expensive equipment.

To calm our fears, Photo Chief Mike Yoder suggested buying a cheap model, in this case the Syma X5C-1 quadcopter, which costs about $90 dollars and weighs only about 3.7 ounces, with the idea that we could practice flying and, well, crashing it with much less to lose before buying a more expensive and versatile model.

We got the drone a couple of weeks ago, and here’s how it’s going.

Day 1: Eager to fly it, I took the drone into an empty conference room at the JournalWorld with the idea that I would just work on getting it up into the air and hovering a few feet off the ground. It didn’t take more than a couple of attempts before it had me backed into a corner.

The plastic blades chopping at my arm felt like the cord from a lowpower, electric weed whacker.

Day 2: Getting a little more skilled and with my 3-year-old well entertained and watching, I was able to keep the drone in the air for 30 seconds before letting it drift into a low-lying branch on my neighbor’s tree. No a big deal, I thought, as I fished it out with a garden rake.

Day 3: Feeling as though I needed much more space to practice,

this point is attached to the drone as if it were a family pet, hanging out behind me, I lifted it off the ground and started for the tree. Getting it there was no problem, but the circling part proved tricky, and the next thing I knew the quadcopter was 50 feet in the air, drifting over a tall line of trees and Mike Yoder/Journal-World Photo heading out of sight. At this point, for all I knew Journal-World Staff Photographer Nick Krug operates a Syma X5C quadcopter in the alley behind the Journal-World on Friday. the drone was gone and I took it to the home challenge that I try to of a friend living in fly the drone 20 yards the county who has a ahead, circle a maple relatively large and open tree and bring it back. backyard. Getting a little With him watching and cocky, I accepted his my daughter, who at

my daughter, with tears in her eyes and sensing that I was a little panicked, said, “Daddy, where did the drone go?”

After searching the area and in every conceivable open spot we could access within what we thought was a likely area where it could have fallen, we decided to cut our losses.

I sent Yoder a text letting him know that the drone was MIA and that we had called off the search. My daughter and I headed for home and I explained to her that dad lost the drone on accident, but that it was OK and we would likely end up getting another one.

Within three minutes of reaching home, I received a picture on my phone of my friend smiling with the drone in hand after spotting it in the middle of a dirt field considerably far-

ther than where we had expected it to land.

Day 4: Today, after deciding that flying the drone in the completely enclosed and vacant space where the Journal-World presses used to be might be a smart decision for the time being, I successfully circled a ladder 20 yards away and landed the drone at my feet.

It’s our hope that eventually, after we all have mastered flying the device, we will be able to use them for reporting in places where our line of sight is obstructed. At the very least, an aerial view even 10 feet off the ground can often give an interesting view of an ordinary scene.

We won’t, of course, fly this over anyone’s head or over traffic.

Even though it’s super light weight, safety is going to be our first priority.

Another ‘Sniper’ story

Here are the bestsellers for the week that ended Sunday, April 26, compiled from nationwide data.

Chris Kyle’s widow shares thoughts on her husband’s killing in upcoming book

By Jamie Stengle Associated Press

Dallas — The widow of famed “American Sniper� author Chris Kyle says in her upcoming book that she struggled with the idea of whether her husband’s killer should be executed.

Taya Kyle writes in “American Wife,� which will be published next week by William Morrow, that she concluded she would be fine with either the death penalty or life in prison. “That was as far as I could go toward forgiveness,� she wrote.

Kyle describes her life with the famed former Navy SEAL sniper and coping after his 2013 death at a Texas gun range.

The Associated Press purchased an early copy of the book, written with Jim DeFelice, who also coauthored her husband’s memoir of his Iraq tours

that was turned into an Oscar-nominated movie.

Kyle and his friend, Chad Littlefield, were shot to death by former Marine Eddie Ray Routh, whose mother had asked Kyle to help him. The prosecutor decided not to seek the death penalty, so Routh was automatically sentenced to life in prison after his capital murder conviction in February.

Trial testimony revealed Routh had been hospitalized for psychiatric treatment and prescribed medication to treat schizophrenia. But jurors found the insanity defense m o u n t e d by his lawyers failed to meet the legal threshold: a mental illness so severe he didn’t know right from wrong.

Erath County D i s - trict Attorney Alan Nash told the AP Thursday that he decided not to seek the death pen-

alty after weighing several factors, including that the jury and higher courts could consider Routh’s military service and mental health records. He said it also led to a faster conclusion as opposed to years and years of appeals.

Chris Kyle met Routh for the first time the day he was killed, Taya Kyle wrote, adding: “Chris didn’t know the young man, nor was he told the vast depths of his problems.�

She writes about deciding to have her husband laid to rest at Texas State Cemetery in Austin instead of Arlington National Cemetery. They had talked about it after a friend’s funeral and she wrote that her husband told her: “I just want to be wherever is best for ya’ll.�

He also told her: “I want a big funeral. I’m gone, right? Blow it out.�

Thousands attended his memorial service held at AT&T Stadium, where his coffin was placed at the Dallas Cowboys’ star at midfield.

Willie Nelson autobiography detailed, but lacks spirit Associated Press

With dozens of books already authored about the life and music of one Willie Hugh Nelson, is another tome truly necessary?

Nelson himself has already had a hand in one autobiography — 1988’s “Willie,� co-written with the late, great Bud Shrake — alongside a handful of philosophical writings (2006’s “The Tao of Willie� or 2012’s “Roll Me Up and Smoke Me When I Die�), all of which have furthered refined the immense mythology that has grown up around Abbott’s favorite son.

Now comes the briskly paced “It’s a Long Story: My Life,� co-written with A-list music biographer David Ritz, and which retraces the familiar contours of Nelson’s colorful existence.

If “Long Story� aspired to give some insight to the keen songwriting mind behind such classic country staples as “Crazy� or “Hello Walls� (the banal genesis of which is detailed in the book), it would be a rewarding, illuminating read.

Instead, too much of

this 360-page endeavor skims the surface, shying away from any genuine revelations, despite assertions to the contrary: “This book is the history of my heart,� Nelson writes early on, “and especially the ways in which my heart has been shaped by music.�

Such sentiment is touching but doesn’t give the reader a sense of what animates Nelson as an artist, which is Long Story’s largest weakness.

Nelson may live for years to come, but time grows short for him to speak definitively about his life’s work.

His laundry list of influences — everyone from Lefty Frizzell to Django Reinhardt is lovingly singled out — is very familiar to any fan of his, just as his tales of transience (selling encyclopedias door to door; working as a disc jockey in various Texas cities) are likewise well-known, and without any especially revelatory details

added here.

That said, if you’re hungering to know Nelson’s stance on, say, gay rights or the changes technology has wrought in the music business, you’re in luck.

So if “Long Story� purports to be the “history of his heart,� what did Nelson most cherish?

Writing songs, stirring up trouble, chasing women and living life as a touring musician — the seeming futility of trying to make it as a songwriter in 1960s Nashville is contrasted with the merry, hell-raising hedonism he enjoyed in Texas and elsewhere (the 1969 outof-wedlock birth of his daughter, Paula, is greeted with a shrug: “I could understand why [Shirley Collie, his second wife] was disgusted with me,�

Nelson writes).

The prose is simple and direct, as is to be expected from a songwriter of Nelson’s caliber.

And much like the lyrics he sings, the lines don’t appear to say much but pro-

vide a surprising cumulative impact. His closing vignette inside the church on his Luck property is particularly moving.

Still, you may be left

feeling that listening to Willie Nelson’s songs will give you a better sense of the man who made them than any autobiography ever could.

DATEBOOK

KANSAS CITY CONNECTION

By Lucas Wetzel

Market offers various and Sundry goodies

W

hen you first walk into The Sundry, a market and grocery that opened last year in the Crossroads neighborhood, you’ll see a large chalkboard with a drawing of Kansas and Missouri. Pointing to the states are several arrows indicating the origins of The Sundry’s suppliers for meat, vegetables, dry goods, teas and a whole variety of products ranging from kombucha, a fermented tea drink, and komatsuna, a green leafy vegetable, to succulents and soap. The Sundry doesn’t just stock local foods — it serves them in a variety of tasty breakfast, brunch and lunch dishes, as well as pre-made dinners to take home.

Breakfast is served each day starting at 8 a.m. (10 a.m. to 6 p.m. brunch on weekends), with a $5 biscuits-and-gravy plate, a $6 breakfast pie made with scrambled eggs, potatoes, house-made bacon and cheddar, and a $6 red-flannel hash made with pastrami, roasted beets and potatoes for brunch ($1 for a poached egg on top).

For a lighter snack, try the homemade dunkin’ stick or one of the polenta cookies with a lemon rosemary glaze, washed down with a cup of tea from Hugo Tea Company or a cup of coffee from local roasters Thou Mayest or The Roasterie.

The lunch menu includes a green curry sandwich with chicken from Barham Family Farms and a baguette from Le Monde Bakery, a pulled pork sandwich with Windhaven Farms Pork (both $8.50), along with several salads, vegetable dishes and weekly specials. The Sundry also offers occasional classes and demonstra-

tions, and the outdoor patio just opened last week.

Visit the Sundry at 1706 Baltimore from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. during the week, with a special happy hour menu of small plates and beverages from 3 p.m. until close, or on weekends from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Check out a menu online at thesundry. com.

Mary Chapin Carpenter At 8 p.m. Friday at the Kauffman Center, singer Mary Chapin Carpenter will join the Kansas City Symphony to present special symphonic arrangements of her songs, conducted by Vince Mendoza, who has previously worked with artists including Elvis Costello, Diana Krall and Sting.

Tickets for this one-night event start at $40 and are available at kcsymphony. org.

Student art One of the best ways to spot up-and-coming artists in the Kansas City area is to check out the annual exhibits of student art hosted by the Kansas City Art Institute and the University of MissouriKansas City.

From now through May 16, KCAI’s annual B.F.A. Exhibition is on display at the H&R Block Artspace on 43rd and Walnut streets, featuring work from 116 Bachelor’s in Fine Arts candidates. The Artspace is open from noon to 5 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday.

At the UMKC Art Gallery, student work is on display through July 30. The gallery is on the UMKC campus at 5100 Rockhill Road, and is open varying hours from Monday through Friday.

Visit umkc.edu for more information.

Sculpture al fresco You don’t have to set foot in a gallery to see the city’s newest and most interesting sculptural installations. On the south lawn of the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art, sculptor Philip Haas has created four 15-foot-tall portrait busts called “The Four Seasons,” which bring to life Renaissance painter Giuseppe Arcimboldo’s portrait series of the same name. In the sculptures, Haas arranged different kinds of fruit, flowers and sticks to form four large faces that correspond to each season’s botanical offerings.

The Four Seasons is well worth a visit for viewers of all ages. Haas will be in attendance on May 28 for a presentation at the museum, and the sculptures will be the backdrop for Kansas City’s Big Picnic, a public event on Sunday, July 19 from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. Visit nelson-atkins.org for more information.

‘Fiddler on the Roof’ The Spinning Tree Theatre is currently presenting the classic musical “Fiddler on the Roof” at the Just Off Broadway Theater on 3051 Penn Valley Drive.

The production, directed

by Andy Parkhurst with artistic direction by Michael Grayman, features an ensemble cast and live musical accompaniment.

Showtimes are Thursday, May 7 at 7:39 p.m., Friday, May 8 and Saturday, May 9 at 8 p.m. and Sunday, May 10 at 2 p.m. Tickets are for sale at spinningtreetheatre.com for $27.50 and up for adults or $15 for students.

— Lucas Wetzel is a writer and editor from Kansas City, Mo.

Symphonic Band to perform Tuesday The Kansas University Symphonic Band will wrap up the 2014-2015 KU School of Music Lied Center Series with a performance at 7:30 p.m.

Tuesday at the Lied Center, 1600 Stewart Drive.

The night’s program will include “Toccata Marziale”

by Ralph Vaughan Williams, featuring graduate conductor Allison Cock-

shaw; “One Life Beautiful”

by Julie Giroux directed by graduate conductor Steven Smyth; and “Porgy and Bess” arranged and conducted by James Barnes, professor of music theory and music composition.

Free State Digital offers a free social media review to get a grasp on your current situation. After reviewing your current online presence and building a preliminary online strategy, you will have solid information to start growing your online customer base and increasing revenues.

You’ve built a website for your business, but are you sure people will find it when they use Google and other search engines? Free State Digital’s search optimization service will evaluate your site to make sure you’ve included content and code to attract higher search rankings.

There are few marketing tools more valuable than a good list of email addresses. If you already have your list, Free State Digital’s email services can design and write emails that will create interest in your business and generate more sales. If you don’t have a list, we can help get you started.

Our team of experienced writers can help by creating posts for your blog and composing press releases.

A blog tells your business story and establishes you as an expert in your industry or field. Research shows that posting new blog content just once a month can increase your site traffic.

Our online reputation tools help you monitor all of the online, publicly available information about your business and then help you gain some control. We can help you track mentions of your business, build on positive mentions and resolve negative reviews.
