District doesn’t monitor offender registry ——

Staff wasn’t aware LHS student had sex crime conviction By Rochelle Valverde Twitter: @RochelleVerde

Lawrence school district officials have a way to find out whether registered sex offenders are enrolled at schools, but the district isn’t sure whether it wants to know that information. Though most crimes committed by juveniles are not public record, juveniles convicted of sexually violent crimes are required to be publicly listed on the Kansas Bureau of Investigation offender registry. For those 18 and older, all serious sex, violent and drug offenses are posted. But because the district does not monitor the online database, a registered sex offender attended Lawrence High School for nearly 18 months. Had the district been aware of his past crimes, state law would have required that all teachers and staff involved with the student be notified. Following the student’s recent arrest for alleged sex crimes against a minor, district leaders aren’t sure how a similar situation would be dealt with in future. For the district to begin monitoring the offender registry would require a policy decision by the school board, said David Cunningham, director of human resources and legal services for the district. Cunningham said the possibility of regularly monitoring the offender registry is a broad issue that he thinks would require a lot of conversation. Please see OFFENDERS, page 6A

DURING A TRIP TO PICK UP THEIR MAIL AND OTHER ITEMS, Lynda Wilson and her husband, Jerry, who manage Haskell Avenue Cafe, rummage through belongings at the restaurant on April 19. The Wilsons had to shutter the cafe indefinitely after a broken water pipe and other mechanical failures forced them to close.

of Road to Recovery, two for-profit substance abuse clinics that along with the convenience store count themselves among the eight surviving tenants. “You’ve got the thrift store down on the end, some kind of multicultural braid thing. There’s a bar called Playerz where a guy got shot a while ago. Then there’s the massage parlor that we all just wink-winknod-nod about, a liquor store and us. “You might call this a den of iniquity,” a label that if publicized, he suggests with enthusiasm, could be good for Center for Change, which is prohibited by

law from advertising its methadone services. To be fair, Campbell isn’t the first to offer such a negative analysis. A 2008 Journal-World story about an art gallery opening here — it’s since gone out of business — had this to say: “To East Lawrence townies, Haskell Square is affectionately referred to as ‘The Vice Mall,’ a onestop shop for all of your porn, liquor, parole, Payday Loan and comfortfood needs.” Eight years later, those ventures have folded, replaced by new waves of mostly honest people with mostly honest dreams. Now, there’s reason to

ask whether this Stephen King of a shopping center can author a brighter chapter. A roadway extension could bring an influx of traffic. A national chain might put more customers on its doorstep. But a bad reputation, just like bad luck, can be hard to shake. Even Campbell, who minces no words in describing himself as an ex-addict who “got clean years ago,” admits of the 50-year-old strip mall on the southeast corner of 19th Street and Haskell Avenue: “Most of it’s perception rather than fact.” Please see HOPE, page 9A

Maryan Nguyen, student, Lawrence “I appreciate that she gave up her old life in Vietnam to come to America so she can provide me with a lot of opportunities to succeed.”

By Jason Kendall t this eastside strip mall on the fringe of a food desert, there are more places to find methadone than to find an apple. The convenience store that proclaims itself a food mart devotes as much shelf space to pantry staples as it does to dog treats, T-shirts, coin wrappers and rubber bands. A pair of storefronts outfitted with kitchen space have exhausted a lazy Susan of restaurants, most with expiration dates measured in months rather than years. Today, both are shuttered, the ghosts and the grease of their forefathers all that stuck. If their stories are to be believed, this is just about the unluckiest place in Lawrence to start a small business. The price of entry is set by the failed names over the doors — in some cases, when you open for business, they’re still hanging there. A comedy store.

Jerome “Jerry” Phillips, 70, of Overland Park, KS, passed away Saturday, April 30 surrounded by his loving family. He was born November 8, 1945 in Nederland, TX to Marguerite “Bee” and Kermit “Gee” Phillips. After graduating high school, he was recruited by a number of schools, including West Point, but ultimately chose to play football on scholarship at SMU in Dallas so he could be close to his mother and family. He enjoyed playing in the Cotton Bowl in 1966 and then wearing his Cotton Bowl ring and watch for many, many years. At SMU, he met the love of his life, Jean Kendrick, and together they had four children. He was also “father” to dozens of foster children, and a father figure to many of the kids he coached, and later taught. After a career in Dallas, working in accounting at U.S. Industries, he started a new career in 1980 in Ulysses, KS, managing Ulysses Irrigation Pipe Company. In Ulysses he enjoyed being a member of the local Rotary Club, on the board of the Grant County Recreation Commission, and a member of the United Methodist Church. Jerry and his wife went back to school at the University of Kansas where he earned his PhD in Education at the age of 50. As a Professor of Sports Management, he worked at US Sports Academy in Alabama and the University of Kansas, where he taught classes and also worked as the Facilities Director at Robinson Gymnasium. He retired as a professor from the

TWO-AND-A-HALF-YEAR-OLD AVERY MARCUM OPENS WIDE FOR A BITE OF BARBECUE offered by her mother, Megan Marcum, during the People’s Choice portion of the 18th annual Lawrence Sertoma 48 BBQ Cookoff at Broken Arrow Park. Lawrence residents and visitors alike dropped by the park to taste various meats prepared by BBQ competitors. Proceeds from the event will benefit the Sertoma-Schiefelbusch Communication Camp.

Barbecue contest season’s ‘opening day’ 48 teams face off at Sertoma Club’s 18th annual fundraiser By Elvyn Jones Twitter: @ElvynJ

here was no pre-event fanfare or ceremonial first pitch, but Saturday’s Lawrence Sertoma Club’s 18th annual 48 BBQ Cookoff served as the season opener for many of the competing teams. “It’s our opening day,” said Kevin Starkey, a Shawnee member of the Double Stack barbecue team. “We’ll go to six or seven more contests this year.” The team of members from various cities in the Kansas City metropolitan area has been together for 10 years and was entering plates in all four categories contested at the 48 BBQ of pork,

“

In 18 years, we’ve raised $250,000. One-hundred percent of that went back to the Lawrence community.” — Dee Bisel, public relations director for the Lawrence Sertoma Club’s 48 BBQ Cookoff pork ribs, brisket and chicken. Just as opening day represents the first step to a hopeful playoff run for baseball teams, Double Stack team members said Saturday’s event and the other Kansas City Barbecue Society sanctioned contests they would attend in coming months would help them get ready for their ultimate year-end goal of October’s season-ending American Royal BBQ contest in Arrowhead Stadium. “We’ve qualified for the

American Royal the past seven years,” Starkey said. “We won in ribs in 2007.” The cookoff Saturday at Broken Arrow Park was about shaking out the rust and getting back in competitive mode, Double Stack team members said as they prepared to turn in their brisket plate. It was a task they went about with a few cold beers to reduce the edge of the warm afternoon sun, they admitted. Please see BARBECUE, page 4A

One year after the Lawrence City Commission approved a tax rebate for the now under-construction HERE Kansas apartment development, of which Chicago-based CA Ventures is a partner, Iowa City entered into its own deal with CA Ventures. In Lawrence, development partners received city approval for an 85 percent, 10-year tax rebate on new taxes generated by the approximately $75 million project, through the National Revitalization Act. They entered into a

Housing

Bentley, like Fleming, said the lower rents would reduce cash flow and create more difficulty in paying debt. Because it would be more unaffordable for smaller residential developments, Bentley said he’d suggest creating an exemption for developments 10 or 20 units or smaller. If the amount of required affordable housing units was capped at 10 or 15 percent, Fleming said, “Maybe you could make that work.”

cost-share agreement for reconstruction of adjacent streets — one that could have the city paying about $250,000 of the $1.5 million total, pending City Commission approval Tuesday. Developers are also allowed to keep fees for more than 100 new metered spaces, but not fines for violations. Recently, during the discontentment caused by HERE’s evolving parking problems, Lawrence negotiated to receive $100,000 of the meter revenue annually for the city’s parking fund. In Iowa City, the situation was different. Contrary to Lawrence’s position, Iowa City owned a piece of land and sent a request for companies to develop it. The request drew six competitive bids, the Iowa City Press-Citizen reported, and the one from CA Ventures — for an apartment, office and retail development with a traditional parking garage — was the best. The company paid the assessed value for the land, $5.5 million; contributed $1 million to Iowa City’s affordable housing fund; and set aside 32 units, or 10 percent, as affordable housing, serving households earning 80 percent or below of the area’s median income. The development, a $102.5 million project, did not use public financing. City Manager Tom Markus came to Lawrence in March after serving as Iowa City’s city manager for five years. He took part in Iowa City’s agreement with CA Ventures, and he told Lawrence’s Affordable Housing Advisory Board about the deal at its latest meeting in April. He relayed to the group that in his last couple of years there, when Iowa City incentivized residential projects (all mixeduse), it would negotiate for affordable housing. And developers agreed — in the CA Ventures development and three others. Markus also told the affordable housing board he wanted to start down the same path in Lawrence with future developments. A few weeks later, that idea is now on paper.

Requiring affordable units In a larger package of proposed changes to the policies that govern economic development incentives, Lawrence included a new affordable housing requirement. Economic Development Director Britt Crum-Cano has said she wants to gather feedback on the changes and present them to the City Commission by the end of the month. Markus reiterated at several meetings in recent weeks — to the Affordable Housing Advisory Board, the Lawrence Association of Neigh-

THE 888 LOFTS BUILDING IS UNDER CONSTRUCTION at the corner of Ninth and New Hampshire streets. If a proposed affordable housing requirement for developments receiving city incentives had been in effect when development began, 35 percent of the building’s apartment units would have had to be set aside as affordable housing. borhoods and the Joint Economic Development Council — that affordable housing is a “public policy issue,” one that requires investment on behalf of the city and a bridge to be built between the public and private sectors. To the Lawrence Association of Neighborhoods, Markus said he had “a passion” for the issue. “I think everyone is kind of scrambling trying to figure out what programs exist and if other programs need to be created to expand the supply (of affordable housing),” Markus said. “I feel the same kind of anxiety here in Lawrence about it that I did in Iowa City.” “I think it affects everybody, but I think there are some communities that would just as soon leave it to others to fix,” he said. “Clearly, that’s not Iowa City or Lawrence.” Under the proposed policies, any project comprising four or more residential units — and that is seeking city incentives — would be required to set aside a percentage for households making 80 percent of the area median income. Developers would be required to charge income-based rent for those units as determined by the Lawrence-Douglas County Housing Authority. The units would have to remain affordable for the duration the project is incentivized, but no less than 15 years. The provision would apply to all developments receiving one of a host of incentive options: tax abatements, industrial revenue bonds, tax increment financing, transportation development districts, community improvement districts and national revitalization areas. For projects with four to 49 units, at least 10 percent would have to be set aside to meet the mandate. For projects with 50 or more units, the requirement jumps to 35 percent. Markus explained that in the case of HERE Kansas, which comprises 237 luxury apartments, “we would’ve been asking for a sizable number of units ified for the tournament. “The four kids who qualified are really excited and they’ve been working hard, of course, to get the school year finished out,” said LHS debate coach Jeff Plinsky. Plinksy said the students will spend at least a week preparing before the tournament. The LHS students who qualified are senior Stefan Petrovic in foreign extemporaneous speaking; junior Natalie Cote’ in informative speaking; freshman Vera Petrovic in original oratory; and junior Bridget Smith as the LHS representative on the East Kansas World Schools Debate Team.

to have been affordable.” The percentages were chosen as a baseline to introduce the concept, Markus said, noting “there could be some growth in that percentage.” Crum-Cano said those amounts would help the developments be mixedincome, to avoid concentrating low-income housing into a single area of Lawrence. Markus agreed, remarking the requirement applying to all subsidized residential developments would lead to “scattered sites” of affordable housing, or as Dan Partridge — LawrenceDouglas County Health Department director — explained the “scattered sites” concept: “invisible, and everywhere.”

The first in Kansas The implementation of affordable housing into subsidized properties isn’t unique in coastal cities, but it’s rare in the Midwest and unheard of in Kansas, said Fred Bentley, rental-housing director with the Kansas Housing Resources Corporation. The KHRC administers the federal low-income housing tax credit program in Kansas. “I haven’t seen this in Kansas anywhere. I’ve heard about it in other states, but not here,” Bentley said, adding that he didn’t know whether it would be well received. “I don’t know what the development community would think of this,” he said. “I would think developers would not be in favor of it, because it would increase difficulty and put more burden on them to make it all work.” The proposal was put before its first audience last Monday. The affordable housing provision, and some other changes to the policies, drew some concern from the Joint Economic Development Council. Like Bentley, Brady Pollington, vice president of the Economic Development Council of Lawrence and Douglas County, questioned if the percentages were so high the requirement would turn developers off a project. And later last week, one

of Lawrence’s most active development groups said it would.

‘Not a good solution’ When asked if the requirement would lead them to not pursue a project, Bill Fleming, an attorney for a group led by Lawrence businessmen Doug Compton and Mike Treanor, responded: “I think 35 percent would make it very, very difficult to make the numbers make sense.” Since 2011, Compton has undertaken three major downtown apartment projects, all of which have received some level of city incentive and, if they were developed with the proposed mandate in play, would have required 35 percent low-income units. Fleming said the proposed changes showed a “total lack of understanding” on how incentives work and would “kill the economics of these deals.” Compton’s under-construction “The Lofts at 888 New Hampshire” is part of a City Commission-approved tax increment financing district, meaning new property and sales taxes generated by the development will be rebated back to developers to pay for infrastructure improvements, including a below-ground parking garage. “Somebody needs to explain that having a TIF district is a good thing in sharing the cost of infrastructure and parking in downtown,” Fleming said. “If we as a community want a strong downtown and people to live down there and we want development, we need to support it. If we want our downtown to be sleepy, lazy, ultimately degrade and decay and become irrelevant like so many others across the country — that’s fine, too.” If the affordable housing requirement were imposed, Fleming said, the cost would be pushed onto those renting units at market rate. “I have to make it up someplace or drive those projects out of the realm of being feasible,” he said. “Either one is not a good solution.”

Creating understanding In Iowa City projects, the city asked developers in some subsidized projects, such as the CA Ventures development, to commit to providing 10 percent of units as affordable housing. And, while developers in Iowa City were supportive, Markus said, he also told the Affordable Housing Advisory Board that Lawrence used incentives less liberally than Iowa City, making it “a little less palatable” for Lawrence developers. “Our incentives packages tend to be pretty conservative (in Lawrence),” Markus said. “Some people may look at this and not be real comfortable with it,” he added later. But Markus also said this approach to creating affordable housing could act as an opportunity to build a relationship between developers and the city. “There’s this nexus that can be created between inducing development and the affordable housing issue,” he said. “Tie-barring it to incentives, at least I hope, creates an understanding in the development community that this is another of the public purposes the city is trying to achieve.” “In Iowa City, I was pleasantly surprised as to how supportive they were, and that’s a consciousness that you would find knowing developers understand the environment and culture they work in,” he said. “You would hope they would buy into that kind of approach. And I think they will here, too.” To Rebecca Buford, director of the Lawrence Community Housing Trust — which, among other services, offers a stock of affordable homes at subsidized sales prices — the proposal is “extremely exciting.” But she anticipated blowback from developers. “If you’re going to build luxury apartments that don’t address this huge demand for affordable apartments, there’s going to be a tradeoff for any kind of incentive package,” Buford said. “With something like this, they may learn, ‘Hey, I still made some money on this project.’” — City Hall reporter Nikki Wentling can be reached at 832-7144 or nwentling@ljworld.com.

Low-Income Housing Tax Credits Low-Income Housing Tax Credits, federally created and state administered, is an existing method encouraging developers to offer affordable housing. The biggest local user of low-income housing tax credits is Tony Krsnich, who developed Poehler Lofts and 9Del Lofts — among other buildings — in the Warehouse Arts District. Through the program, developers receive credits they sell to investors, reducing the amount of debt financing. In exchange, property owners agree to keep rents affordable over a certain time period. At Poehler Lofts, 90 percent of its 49 units are rentrestricted. Some units are set aside for households earning 60 percent of the area median income, and others for those earning 50 percent of the area median income. One unit is designated for someone seeking transitional housing and is “in desperate need of affordable housing,” Krsnich said. 9Del Lofts has a similar mix of units, but with 80 percent of the 43 units set aside as affordable. The deal obligates Krsnich to maintain the affordable units for at least 30 years, he said. The affordable units help fill Lawrence’s gap in “workforce” housing, Krsnich said. They’re occupied by recent graduates, families with young kids, single parents and seniors. Markus said lowincome housing tax credits are a good option, but property owners’ use of them is “just not moving fast enough.” Krsnich said Thursday his properties had a wait list 200 people, most of whom were those seeking the affordable units. “Cities are looking for something else,” Markus continued. “If we’re going to arrange incentives, and it’s going to include housing, how do we provide some affordable housing into that mix? And that’s where we’re heading here in Lawrence.” — Nikki Wentling

Offenders CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A

“I don’t know what the board would want us to do or whether that would be something from a policy or legal perspective that would be appropriate,” said Cunningham, who is also a member of the board’s policy advisory committee. “It kind of depends on what is the goal? What do you want to accomplish once you have the information? What are you going to do with it? So, I would say that’s something that we have not discussed at this point.” The student in question transferred from another school district three years after his conviction in another Kansas county. In 2011, when he was 13, he was convicted of two sex crimes against an 8-year-old girl: aggravated indecent liberties with a child and lewd and lascivious behavior. He began attending LHS in 2014, and earlier this year the now 18-year-old student was charged with similar crimes. In February, the student was charged with one felony count of aggravated indecent liberties with a child under the age of 16. The two did not attend the same school, and the victim told officers that she and the student were dating but had only met a few times, according to the arrest affidavit. The victim said she was 14 and the student stated he “knew (the victim) from following her on Instagram and mutual friends,” according to the affidavit. The case is pending in Douglas County District Court. Even serious sex, violent and drug offenders are entitled by law to an education. In Kansas, registered offenders can enroll in public school without schools receiving direct notification from state or local law enforcement. The responsibility of checking the offender registry is left up to schools, but there are no requirements that schools check the registry or policies regarding how registered offenders should be educated if schools are aware of their past crimes. School districts can make policies requiring the appropriate staff to monitor the registry, but the Lawrence school district does not have such a policy.

How student offenders are handled Despite the right to an education, districts can take precautions if they realize a registered offender has enrolled. But without any laws or policies outlining how schools track or accommodate registered offenders, how the district would handle a similar situation in the future isn’t clear. School board member Shannon Kimball, a former attorney and member of the board’s policy advisory committee, said the implications of creating a policy to monitor the offender registry would have to be carefully considered. “It’s a matter of balancing a student’s right to an education versus another student’s right to be safe in receiving their education,” Kimball said. “… What would we do with the information? Does that mean that every student that’s a registered sex offender we somehow have to isolate them from the rest of the population? I don’t know that that’s the right answer or an appropriate answer, but those are issues we’d have to think very carefully about.” Potential policy changes are first considered by the board’s policy advisory committee, which

. is made up of Cunningham, Kimball and school board President Vanessa Sanburn. If after study the committee decides to recommend a change to district policy, the committee then submits the recommendation to the school board for final approval. There are alternatives to educating registered offenders alongside other students. For instance, the district could decide to place the student in the district’s virtual school. Cunningham said he thinks such decisions should be made case by case. Though he said he couldn’t discuss the specific situation from this year, generally speaking, Cunningham said that making a decision to educate students separately has to be balanced against their statutory and constitutional right to attend school.

cific procedures in place, according to Jim Luebbe, director of policy services for the Nebraska Association of School Boards. Luebbe said that he is not aware of any specific instances of known juvenile sex offenders moving from one district to another, or how the local enforcement officials would handle such a situation. “I don’t know how well the sex offender notification process is working in Nebraska or whether there is any special procedure in place if the offender is a juvenile still attending school,” Luebbe said via email. In Kansas, while state law — the School Safety and Security Act — does not require districts to monitor the offender registry, it does mandate certain actions when a school employee finds out a student has been convicted of a felony other than felony theft.

“

You’ve got to balance everybody’s rights to some extent here. So, I don’t know that you can say that there’s an absolute rule or policy that ought to be in place related to this.” — David Cunningham, director of human resources and legal services for the Lawrence school district

“I don’t know that one should make generalized decisions based on (registered offender) status alone,” Cunningham said. “…You’ve got to balance everybody’s rights to some extent here. So, I don’t know that you can say that there’s an absolute rule or policy that ought to be in place related to this.” Cunningham said the student in question began attending LHS in August 2014 and was a student at the school until February — the month he was charged with his most recent alleged crimes. As a registered sex offender, the details of his past convictions are listed on the offender registry, along with his home address and the address of LHS. Both adult and juvenile offenders are required to register the address of any school they attend; however, state law does not require state or local law enforcement agencies to notify a school district when a registered offender provides a school address.

State laws and board policies Other states and school districts have more directly addressed how registered offenders who enroll in public schools are handled. While no school can bar students because of their criminal history, some have firmer policies or practices in place regarding how they are educated. In Missouri, districts typically choose to educate students who are registered sex offenders separately, said Kelli Hopkins of the Missouri School Boards’ Association. The MSBA has a policy based on state law that states those convicted of a sex offense involving a minor are banned from school campuses, though the rule doesn’t apply to “a student entitled by law to be on district property for educational services if the student’s presence is necessary to obtain those services.” Hopkins said that what ends up happening is that most students who have committed such crimes are not educated alongside others. “In practice, what really happens is if you’ve got a child who is on the sex offender list, they’re going to find a way to educate that child at an alternative setting,” Hopkins said. “Some districts have alternative schools, some will do it via home school, some will have a private tutor meet them at the public library, other locations.” On the other hand, Nebraska does not have spe-

The employee is required to inform the school superintendent, who must then provide the reported information and identify the student to all school employees who are directly involved in teaching or providing other schoolrelated services to the student. But in order for the act to apply, a school employee must first be aware of a student’s crimes. In contrast to the Lawrence school district, the administrators with the Baldwin City district do “periodically check” the offender registry, according to Superintendent Paul Dorathy. Dorathy said via email that Baldwin doesn’t currently have any registered offenders enrolled in its schools, but that the district does have a policy based on the School Safety and Security Act that would require the appropriate administrators and teaching staff to be informed if a student were a registered offender. The Eudora school district does not have a policy or procedure that involves having a district employee check the offender registry, according to Kristin Magette, director of communications. Magette said that information could be provided by a school resource officer, and that a student who is a sex offender would not be excluded because of that status. “In the case of a sex offender in our schools, we would focus on training for staff and ensuring adequate enforcement of a restraining order,” Magette said via email.

Checking the offender registry State law requires the department of education to notify schools of the online offender registry “for the purpose of locating offenders who reside near such school.” The department sends an email twice per year that informs all schools that the online database provides information about registered offenders, according to Denise Kahler, director of communications for the Kansas State Department of Education. Kahler said there are no laws or policies requiring districts or schools to check the offender registry. “Schools may inquire and may have policies to inquire about students’ placement on an offender registry but there are no laws or requirements for

L awrence J ournal -W orld

such a policy,” Kahler said in an email. Even though the Lawrence district does not have a policy requiring that the offender registry be checked, someone at LHS eventually became aware that the student was a registered offender. Cunningham said he was told someone who worked at LHS notified administration after he or she saw a news article and “drew a connection.” Cunningham said he did not know whether that notification occurred before of after the student’s most recent arrest in February. “I don’t know at what point in time they became aware of it and then at what point in time they made administration aware of the situation,” Cunningham said. “So, a number of things occurred there with various people, but I don’t have specific knowledge of who or when.” The student was arrested in February, which Cunningham said was the same month he stopped attending LHS. Once district and school administration were made aware that the student was a registered sex offender — whenever that may have been — Cunningham said he could not say whether a decision was made about whether the student would continue to be enrolled in regular classes at LHS. “To the extent that we might have had conversations around his status as a student, that would all be confidential because it would be a student matter,” he said.

Potential policy changes The Lawrence district has about 5,700 students who attend its six secondary schools; however, that does not mean that district staff would have

to check the names of all those students against the online database in order to identify registered offenders. On the KBI website, it is possible to create a “community notification” for certain addresses. If such a notification were created using the addresses of the district’s six secondary schools, an email notification would be sent when anyone was registered within a certain radius of the school. Such a notification would certainly include an offender who was required to register a school address — such as the student in question — and would narrow the list from hundreds to dozens. KBI spokesman Mark Malick confirmed that creating a community notification would cause a notification to be sent within five days of the receipt of an addition or update to an offender’s registry information. A Journal-World search of the registry for the six secondary school addresses did not indicate additional registered offenders who are students in the district at this time. If the Lawrence school district were to create a policy regarding checking the registry or how to handle registered offenders who enroll, it would first be discussed in the school board’s policy advisory committee. The committee then makes a recommendation to the board, which makes the ultimate decision. Kimball said she thinks the board policy committee needs to have “a deeper policy discussion” about the topic. Though she said she didn’t think there were necessarily negatives to checking the registry, Kimball said the district

would have to determine logistical details, such as how often it was checked and how it would interact with the notification requirements of the School Safety and Security Act. “Given that there’s that vehicle (the offender registry) available, then I think we have to discuss how do those two things work together, and I think there does need to be some discussion about that from a board policy perspective,” Kimball said. “…(The act) does not place an affirmative duty on the school district to go out and try to investigate these things, so that’s an interesting question: how all of these things are meant to — or maybe unintentionally — affect each other.” Kimball said that once the policy committee completes its recommendation regarding the discrimination and harassment policy in mid-May, she thinks considering the issue of student offenders will be the next priority. “I do think we need to have some detailed discussions in the policy committee and have a better understanding of what’s going on before we can really make a good, solid policy recommendation,” Kimball said. “But I would anticipate that we would be doing that.” District spokeswoman Julie Boyle echoed Kimball’s sentiment Friday afternoon. “We will take a look at whether revisions to policy and/or adjustments in current practice are needed to glean more information about any prior criminal history of students entering our schools,” Boyle said via email. — K-12 education reporter Rochelle Valverde can be reached at rvalverde@ljworld.com or 832-6314.

Streetcars returning to KC By Bill Draper Associated Press

Kansas City, Mo. — Six decades after Kansas City shuttered one of the nation’s largest streetcar networks, a modern but much smaller version has opened in its central business district — a project supporters say already has spurred hundreds of millions of dollars’ worth of downtown development. A 2.2-mile starter line from Union Station near Crown Center to the River Market, a few blocks from the Missouri River, opened to the public on Friday. A two-day celebration along the route included speeches, music, fireworks and carnival rides. It’s expected to be the base of a network that could eventually extend to the city’s south and east sides, encompassing the Country Club Plaza — an upscale shopping district — and University of Missouri-Kansas City campus. That is, if city leaders can figure out how to pay for the expansions. “Kansas City has tried with fits and starts over many decades to build a rail transit spine through the heart of the city, but failed many times,” said David Johnson, a member of the Kansas City Streetcar Authority Board. “This line represents the first baby steps in bringing that back.” President Barack Obama’s American Recovery and Reinvestment Act provided the springboard for what has become a national streetcar renaissance. Since 2009, the U.S. Department of Transportation has awarded $547.7 million to 15 streetcar projects across the coun-

The city is preparing to launch a modern streetcar system that supporters say will shape the community’s development for decades to come. try, including starter lines in Kansas City, Dallas, Atlanta and Tucson, and extensions to existing streetcar systems in Portland and New Orleans, the DOT said. The Kansas City line cost $102 million, including $37.3 million in federal funding along with proceeds from a 1-cent sales tax and increased property taxes within the development district. According to the Kansas City Streetcar Authority, $1.6 billion in new investments have been announced along the corridor since 2012. Of that, the city estimates $381 million in projects within a few blocks of the streetcar line have been directly attributed to the project. Streetcars have come full circle in Kansas City since the days when there were more than 700 registered to travel roughly 300 miles of privatelybuilt tracks, said Monroe Dodd, a retired Kansas City Star editor who published a book in 2002 on the city’s streetcar history. The earlier streetcars peaked in the early 1920s, before cars became wide-

ly affordable, Dodd said. In their heyday, streetcar lines were built by private investors as a way to carry people to the city’s fringes, where they could buy property and build things. However, rather than draw people away from downtown, the new starter line seeks to lure them to it. City officials are hyping the project as a sleek amenity that will attract a younger, techsavvy crowd. But residents haven’t always fully embraced restarting the streetcar network. Two years ago, voters handily rejected creation of a second transportation development district that would have paid for three extensions. Among the critics is Crosby Kemper III, director of the Kansas City Public Library. He is skeptical of claims by city leaders that no general fund money will be needed to operate the streetcar once the “new” wears off. He noted that while it’s free for people to ride Kansas City’s streetcars now, other cities such as Portland and Atlanta that initially offered free rides eventually had to charge.

Visitors to Evel Knievel Museum will experience virtual stunts Topeka (ap) — A new museum honoring daredevil Evel Knievel will allow visitors to take virtual reality jumps and to understand the physics behind some of his stunts. Mike Patterson owns a Topeka Harley-Davidson dealership that is being expanded to include a 16,000-square-foot area to house the Evel Knievel Museum, which he expects to open this year. Patterson estimates it’ll draw 100,000 people a year, The Topeka Capital-Journal reported. Knievel became famous for defying death with several jumps and stunts on his motorcycle, including jumping over 10 trucks

at the Kansas State Fair in Hutchinson in 1971. He died in November 2007. Patterson said he talked with museum leaders across the country and decided to create a separate museum after hearing enthusiasm for the project. He said a two-month Knievel exhibit in Milwaukee drew 50,000 people from around the world. “It started out as a display,” Patterson said while showing off construction this week to the Shawnee County Commission. “Then we saw the excitement people have around Evel Knievel and the reach.” Several planned exhibits will incorporate lessons in

science, technology, engineering and math, he said. One exhibit will detail the physics of planning a jump, such as determining the angle and speed. Museum visitors will input data into an interactive exhibit to see if their jump would be successful. Visitors also will be able to sit on a bike and experience a virtual reality jump. Visitors also will see the results of some of Knievel’s failed jumps, which caused more than 433 broken bones. When he announced the museum last year, Patterson said it would house the largest collection of Knievel memorabilia in the world.

Seen from above, Haskell Square makes a backward L, the convenience store and gas station an apostrophe at its upper left. On weekdays, dozens of cars shine like tiles at the edge of the parking lot, where Lawrence residents have left their vehicles to catch the K-10 Connector bus to Johnson County Community College in Overland Park. Across Haskell to the west is Chief Jim McSwain Park and its wide expanse of freshly mowed grass. To the north and south is a mix of condominiums and single-family homes that come as close as anything in Lawrence to what can be called affordable housing; most of them are rentals. To the east, beyond a fence that has seen better days, a 5-acre, 19th century farmstead whiles away in pastoral beauty. Since 1983, Dennis Dailey has owned that property on the other side of the fence, making him one of Haskell Square’s oldest neighbors. The Kansas University professor emeritus of social welfare and his wife, Judy, acquired the Robert H. Miller Home and Farm from another family, who bought it from the Millers after 100 years of ownership. The original two-story home was built in 1858, with other elements of the farm — a milk house, a barn and a brick privy — added in the decades that followed, according to documents filed with the National Register of Historic Places. Like its small-business neighbors, the Miller house is a kind of survivor, too, having been passed over by bushwhackers in Quantrill’s Raid — William Quantrill was friends with the family. But it is also a landmark of abolition. The strangeness of this dichotomy is not lost on the property’s modern owner. “We’re on the Quantrill tour, so people drop by,” Dailey explains. “And then we have black families who stop in and knock on our door and want to know about the Underground Railroad,” which the Miller home was part of. “That’s a very different and emotional experience than just telling people about Quantrill.” Dailey, who calls the neighborhood “a delightful place to live” that’s not without its issues, bristles at its reputation among some members of the Lawrence community. “I think it’s racism and the issues of poverty,” he says bluntly. “We don’t have a lot of houses out here that sell for half a million dollars.” In the shadows of straw bales, burnished grasses nod in the breeze on his side of the fence, whose slats offer glimpses of what lies beyond: haphazard islands of shelving, easy chairs and futons dumped on the backside of the strip mall as businesses one by one moved out, the chaff of dreams that all went belly up. In the 33 years he’s owned the property, Dailey estimates, at least two dozen of them have cycled through Haskell Square’s storefronts and, eventually, out its back doors. Given a moment to reflect, “that might be on the conservative side,” he jokes. “I don’t think you’d ever describe it as a bustling place. It’s always had half or three-quarters occupancy. “It’s been true for many years.” l l l

A shrewd businessperson with a keen eye for history could draw a clever conclusion from the parable of Haskell Square: With so many specialties imagined and extinguished — coins, baseball cards, arcade games, pig-ear sandwiches — why not instead open a store that offers Something for Everyone?

Next door to Chez Sira, a sign still advertises Haskell Avenue Cafe, a diner once briefly famous for its hash-brown omelet. In its prime, it opened at 5 a.m. weekdays with an eye on the cluster of commuters who regularly congregate at Haskell Square to catch the Johnson County bus that runs between Lawrence and Overland Park. Mechanical issues with a kitchen vent fan and water damage have since closed the cafe indefinitely. Other restaurants that washed out of the strip mall have suffered from similar setbacks with the aging building’s condition, according to Kansas Department of Agriculture restaurant inspection records.

If you’re looking for “a knife-and-gun club,” this isn’t it. That’s what Michelle Seidner calls the notorious Crosstown Tavern, which once occupied the space now known as Playerz Sports Bar and which Seidner used to frequent. In 1997, an 18-year-old Lawrence man, Trampas Hutchinson, was nearly beaten to death outside of Crosstown, which was also the site of several stabbings. “When we came in here we knew there was a reputation that came along with this facility,” Seidner, a special education teacher for the Lawrence school district, admits of Playerz, which she has co-owned since 2012 with April Oakes, a paralegal. “Our No. 1 goal was to try to change that, to get people in all of Lawrence to understand we’re something different.” That hasn’t exactly been easy. A January shooting outside the bar left Lee Simmons Jr., 32, whom Seidner calls a friend, in serious condition after he tried to break up a fight in the parking lot. Geoffrey Eugene Morrison, 28, of Lawrence, faces a felony charge of aggravated battery in the attack. For Seidner, the shooting was “frightening, heartbreaking and totally unnecessary.” “The person who was shot was trying to protect this place,” she says, noting most of the Playerz bartenders are women who work what can be a tough job late at night. “We encourage our bartenders to call 911 whenever they need to, whenever they’re uncomfortable. I think at this establishment in the past that hasn’t always been part of the deal.” A review of raw emergency calls provided by Lawrence police shows 503 for the strip mall as a whole since 2005. “These raw statistics will include any traffic accident or citation,” explained police Sgt. Amy Rhoads, who provided the Journal-World with the numbers. “Calls for service do not necessarily mean that a police report was taken or that an officer found any criminal activity.” They’re also tallied when someone proactively dials 911 to report suspicious behavior. Lawrence police are working on but do not currently have publicly available crime-mapping software, noted Capt. Anthony Brixius, making an apples-to-apples account of crime in different parts of the city difficult to illustrate. Some downtown Lawrence locations have received more than 300 calls in the same period. “We try not to dwell on the negative,” Seidner says of the increased media scrutiny that followed the shooting. “We’re into giving back to the community; we want this to be a people’s place, a place where the love is shown.” Since opening, Playerz has quickly become a neighborhood hangout for birthday parties, Indian taco sales, domino games, Thursday night karaoke and even line-dancing lessons. In February, the bar hosted a Stop the Violence music bash for charity that brought in tables full of donations to the Willow Domestic Violence Center and Penn House. Oakes still calls East Lawrence home. Seidner now lives in North Lawrence but spent a good deal of time on the east side. “My perspective is it’s kind of the forgotten part of Lawrence,” she says. “I see a lot of growth in west Lawrence but not in the east, for families or anyone.” She points out the bus stop at the edge of the parking lot, a makeshift cluster of chairs some Good Samaritans spray-painted and delivered. Before they appeared, there wasn’t even a place for commuters to sit. “I think the people in this community don’t feel like they have a voice in what happens.”

his shop is not a sequel to. Kumar opened last May, making him the strip mall’s newest remaining tenant. Two months later, his brother Red Dumpa moved from southern India, where his family owns a construction company, to help man the store at night. Kumar’s venture hasn’t exactly taken off, but he’s not planning to bail anytime soon. “It’s all right,” he says reticently of his store’s sales. “Not too bad, not too slow.” Both cited the potential arrival of Dollar General as a reason to stay optimistic, and they weren’t the only Haskell Square tenants interviewed for this story who take that view.

EDITORIALS

Prudent action Creating two student governments may not be the best way to promote respect and inclusion on the Kansas University campus.

hancellor Bernadette Gray-Little’s veto of a proposed $2 student fee to fund a new Multicultural Student Government at Kansas University was a tough but correct decision. Given the current environment on the nation’s university campuses, Gray-Little’s action was bound to draw criticism but it was a thoughtful and responsible decision that is in the best interests of her university and the state. As Gray-Little noted in a letter explaining her decision, it would be irresponsible to recommend to the Kansas Board of Regents that a new fee be collected for a separate multicultural government that does not currently exist and would not be developed during the 2016-17 school year for which the fee would be collected. She also noted that the university code prohibits having two independent groups representing KU students. Perhaps more important than those practical considerations, however, is the possibility that having separate student governments actually would create new divisions among the university community. Having a separate multicultural government, Gray-Little said “is not the optimal way to achieve the goals we have for diversity and inclusion at the university and, indeed, may lead to greater divisiveness.” All students at KU or any other university have a right to feel they are respected and treated fairly. There obviously is a significant group of KU students who don’t believe their interests are being adequately represented by the existing student government. The answer to that, however, is not to form a separate, competing government, but to work toward establishing one inclusive student group that represents all the interests of a diverse student body. The students pushing for a Multicultural Student Government have some broad ideas of the purpose it would serve, but funding the group next year would be premature. Far better to take the time necessary to come up with a strategy that merits broad campus support rather than rushing into a questionable plan that could end up increasing divisions, tensions and frustrations. Gray-Little and other university officials have taken seriously the concerns of students who feel marginalized or alienated from the university community. However, it’s been only about a week since KU’s Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Advisory Group issued a report containing more than 30 proposals for making KU more democratic and inclusive. Some patience may be required, but, in the long run, it makes sense to take the time to work toward thoughtful solutions that will provide long-term benefits from KU.

How’s that possible?” Trump: “No, I didn’t say 10 years.” — April 19 Washington — Speaking on “Fox & Friends,” of course, Trump revealed something he learned from the National Enquirer, of course. Although the Kennedy assassination is one of history’s most minutely studied events, all previous scrutiny missed something the supermarket tabloid discovered for people like Trump — a connection between Ted Cruz’s father and the murder of the 35th president. Trump said: “You know, (Cruz’s) father was with Lee Harvey Oswald prior to Oswald’s being, you know, shot. I mean the whole thing is ridiculous. What is this, right prior to his being shot, and nobody even brings it up. I mean they don’t even talk about that. That was reported, and nobody talks about it. But I think it’s horrible. I think it’s absolutely horrible that a man can go and do that, what he’s saying there.” Fox host: “Right. There was a picture out there that reportedly shows Rafael Cruz standing with Lee Har-

When silence descends, there lingers in the air only gauzy innuendo.” vey Oswald ... “ Trump: “I mean what was he doing with Lee Harvey Oswald shortly before the death, before the shooting? It’s horrible.” Fox host: “Crazy.” Parsing Trump sentences is a challenge, but is rewarding because it frequently reveals that he actually has said nothing at all. When silence descends, there lingers in the air only gauzy innuendo. What did Trump really say about “the whole thing” of Oswald? Looking on the bright side — speaking of challenges — Trump’s nomination might have two salutary effects: It might counteract “The Cult of the Presidency,” as explored in Gene Healy’s 2008

book with that title. And it might reacquaint Republicans with the reality principle — the need to assess and adapt to facts. Healy analyzes the delusion of “redemption through presidential politics.” The infantilization of America is apparent in the presidency becoming a semi-sacerdotal office, one that conflates spiritual yearnings and magical thinking about wonders performed by executive power. Trump, with his coarse character and fanciful promises, is an antidote to such superstitions. Now, regarding realities: In 2012, 93 percent of selfdescribed Republicans who voted did so for Mitt Romney. Trump probably cannot receive 80 percent of what probably will be, because of discouragement and revulsion, a smaller Republican turnout. Romney lost 73 percent of the Hispanic vote; Trump is viewed unfavorably by 82 percent of Hispanics and very unfavorably by 62 percent. Trump probably will receive significantly less than Romney’s ruinous 27 percent of this vote. And because of demographic trends and Trump’s motivating policies and insults, Hispanic turnout probably will be significantly larger than in 2012, as the white percentage of the electorate continues to shrink. Romney won just 37 percent of young voters (18-29); Trump is unlikely even to match this. Although Romney won 53 percent of married women,

he received just 44 percent of the total female vote. Today, Trump trails Hillary Clinton among women by 19 points (35 percent to 54 percent), and most women probably do not yet know that he testifies to the excellence of his penis. (“My fingers are long and beautiful, as, has been welldocumented, are various other parts of my body.”) Or that his idea of masculinity is to boast about conquests of women “often seemingly very happily married” and that “I have been able to date (screw).” Or that he says “it doesn’t really matter what (the media) write as long as you’ve got a young and beautiful piece of ass.” In receiving, so far, the support of 4.7 percent of America’s eligible voters, Trump has won a mere plurality of votes in a party approved by only 33 percent of the electorate. This electorate had about 5 percent more Democrats than Republicans even before Trump further tarnished the GOP brand. So, Republicans need to carry independents by more than Romney’s five points. Even in states that have voted Republican since 2000, Trump is viewed unfavorably by 62 percent and strongly unfavorably by 52 percent. His metabolic urge to be scabrous guarantees that Republican candidates everywhere will be badgered by questions about what they think about what he says. What they say will determine how many of them lose with him, and how many deserve to. — George Will is a columnist for Washington Post Writers Group.

Trump spurs day of reckoning for U.S. So it has come to this: Trump 2016. What first seemed a joke, then an unsettling possibility and then a troubling likelihood, became a grim certainty last week as Donald Trump, real estate developer turned reality show ringmaster turned would-be president, won an emphatic victory in Indiana’s Republican primary. His last remaining rivals, Ted Cruz and John Kasich, both dropped out within 24 hours, leaving Trump the de facto nominee of what used to be called, with some pride, the Party of Lincoln. In response, a remarkable constellation of Republican officials and enablers have pronounced themselves unalterably opposed to the duly selected leader of their party. “Never, ever, ever Trump” tweeted Tim Miller, a former spokesperson for Jeb Bush. “With God as my witness,” wrote GOP strategist Rick Wilson, “I will never vote for Donald Trump.” A Washington, D.C., blogger tweeted an image of his voter registration card burning. The governor of Massachusetts and the former head of the state GOP both said they will not vote for Trump. “I have no plans of

supporting either of the presumptive nominees,” said Miami Rep. Carlos Curbelo. And, the unkindest cut of all: A number of Republicans say Trump’s candidacy will drive them into the arms of someone the party has long regarded as the very embodiment of evil. “I’m with her,” tweeted GOP speechwriter Mark Salter, invoking the campaign slogan of the dreaded Hillary Clinton. One is tempted to draw an analogy to rats deserting the Titanic, but that would un-

fairly malign the rats. After all, they didn’t drive the ship into that iceberg. The Republicans, though, are very much the architects of their present misfortune. When you spend decades stoking people’s insecurities, resentment and outrage, when you devote thousands of radio and television hours to scapegoating the marginalized and demonizing the vulnerable, when you campaign on coded appeals to xenophobia, racism and misogyny, when you make facts optional and lies routine, when you prioritize expedience above integrity and embrace ignorance as somehow more authentically American, you may not credibly profess surprise when you produce a candidate who embodies all those traits. The damage the party has done itself is manifest and may be irreversible. But the bigger concern, by far, is how much damage the party has done to this country. It’s a question that has loomed for a very long time. In pondering Election Day, then, one is reminded of the person who finally makes a doctor’s appointment six months after discovering a mysterious lump. Sometimes, people behave as if avoiding

knowing about the bad thing avoids the bad thing itself. But of course, it does not. You either have cancer or you don’t. Visiting the doctor does not affect that one way or another. It simply tells you what you’re dealing with. Similarly, this country has either lost itself down a rabbit hole of ignorance and lies, fear and fury, or it has not. Certainly, the symptoms have long been obvious. From faith-based foreign policy to cynical obstructionism to economic hostage-taking to birther nonsense, right up to Donald Trump’s neo-fascism, it has long been clear that something was wrong with the GOP, that it had become a fundamentally unserious haven of cranks and kooks. Now, the party offers us its kookiest crank as president. Make no mistake: Any country that would elect Donald Trump as president deserves Donald Trump as president. But the question is: Are we that country? Are we that far gone? Whether we are or are not, it’s past time we knew. So fine, let’s do this. What’s coming in November is not an election. No, it’s a reckoning, long overdue. — Leonard Pitts Jr. is a columnist for the Miami Herald.

Omega-3sProtect the Brain, Reduce Risk of Alzheimer’s Disease and ALS

in the healthy subjects and those with MCI, except for people who had the APOE e4 gene, which increases the risk of Alzheimer’s disease. The fish oils had no apparent benefit in patients with established Alzheimer’s disease. The specific benefits associated with fish oils included less atrophy of the cerebral cortex gray matter and hippocampus, as well as better scores on the Alzheimer’s Disease Assessment Scale and the Mini-Mental State Examination. In the other study, Kathryn C. Fitzgerald, MSc, of the Harvard University School of Public Health, and her colleagues analyzed data from 1,002,082 men and women who had been participants in five different studies. Of these, 995 people developed ALS during the studies. People with the highest consumption of omega-3 fish oils had a 34 percent lower risk of developing ALS, compared with those who consumed the fewest fish oils. Fitzgerald and her colleagues noted that other studies have found that the omega-3s have “neuro-protective effects.”

The omega-3s are essential for prenatal, infant, and childhood brain development—and for maintaining healthy moods throughout life. Two new studies show that the omega-3s also help protect the brain against Alzheimer’s disease and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), also known as Lou Gehrig disease. In the first study, Lori A. Daiello, PharmD, of the Warren Alpert Medical School at Brown University, Rhode Island, and her colleagues studied three groups of people: 229 who were cognitively normal, 397 with mild cognitive impairment (MCI), and 193 with Alzheimer’s disease. Of these subjects, 117 were regularly taking fish oil supplements when the study began and throughout the five-year study. All of the subjects underwent brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and took two cognitive tests every six months. The fish oil supplements were associated with benefits

‘Beast’ of a blaze could double in size

Winds push massive Canadian wildfire away from ravaged town toward trees Greg Toppo @gtoppo USA TODAY

A wildfire in western Canada was expected to double in size by late Saturday as shifting winds pushed it northeast — away from the fire-ravaged Alberta community of Fort McMurray but straight into heavily forested areas offering fresh fuel. Public Safety Minister Ralph Goodale called the Fort McMurray blaze “an absolute beast of a fire,” and one of the worst he’s ever seen, the Edmonton Journal reported. Rachel Notley, Alberta’s pre-

mier, said the blaze could reach the province’s border with Saskatchewan by the end of the day. “In no way is this fire under control,” she told reporters. Nearly 90,000 people had been evacuated from the area in the heart of Canada’s oil sands region, with some forced to relocate twice as the flames shifted. The fire so far had destroyed about 1,600 buildings and homes. The mass evacuations forced as much as a quarter of Canada’s oil output offline. The region contains the third-largest reserves of oil in the world, behind Saudi Arabia and Venezuela. Extremely dry, hot conditions and high winds were fanning the

The fire grew to about 1,000 square kilometers or 386 square

Livestrong officially changed its name more USA TODAY SPORTS than three years ago, dumping Greg Lee its original name — the Lance Armstrong Foundation — in favor of Livestrong, its popular nickname. But the foundation still owns that original name and won’t give it back, even though it wants almost nothing to do with its disgraced former namesake. “There are no plans right now to turn that over or do anything with that,” Livestrong President Greg Lee told USA TODAY Sports. And that makes for a strange situation these days at Livestrong, which is dealing with an even bigger identity crisis that has tested the organization with rapidly declining revenues and its third chief executive since 2014. Armstrong, a cancer survivor, built it from scratch in 1997, helping the foundation grow into an

Filipino ‘Trump’ enlivens presidential campaign Blunt boasts similar to GOP candidate’s Thomas Maresca

Special for USA TODAY

Philippine voters head to the polls Monday to elect their next president following a volatile campaign on issues that carry a deep significance for the United States as well as one of its closest allies in Southeast Asia. According to the latest polls, Rodrigo Duterte, the colorful mayor of Davao, has risen to the top with tough talk on crime and

cleaning up corruption. His boastful manner and appeal as a political maverick have earned him comparisons to GOP presumptive presidential nominee Donald Trump. “I will solve drugs, criminality and corruption in three to six months,” Duterte said in a recent interview with Al Jazeera. “I am the only remaining card left for the Filipinos to deal with the situation.” Duterte is the most divisive candidate in an election that has been a four-way race for most of the campaign. A poll by Pulse Asia conducted from April 26 to 29 showed Duterte getting 33% of

the vote to 22% for former government minister Mar Roxas, and 21% for Sen. Grace Poe, daughter of a Philippine movie star.

“This is the most polarizing election the Philippines has had since the fall of the Marcos dictatorship in 1986,” said Richard Javad Heydarian, a professor of political science at De La Salle University in the Philippines. “And that in itself doesn’t bode very well for the country in terms of post-election national unity.” The outspoken Duterte also has been called “The Punisher” and “Duterte Harry,” a play on Clint Eastwood’s Dirty Harry. As mayor of Davao, which is on restive Mindanao Island, Duterte wins praise from supporters for cleaning up the city’s drug and crime problems.

However, his tactics included more than 1,000 extrajudicial killings using death squads, according to Human Rights Watch. Duterte acknowledged the death squads on Philippine television and vowed that if he became president, he would execute 100,000 more criminals. He has also repeatedly gotten himself into hot water with offcolor remarks, from bragging about his womanizing to cursing Pope Francis. And yet, he has managed to emerge unscathed, carried along by a core group of supporters who appear to be fed up with a political system that is notoriously corrupt.

Livestrong plans to continue fighting cancer v CONTINUED FROM 1B

inspirational global brand that distributed 2.2 million of its iconic yellow wristbands in 2010 alone. That year, the charity served more than 608,000 people with help and information in the fight against cancer, according to the foundation. In 2011, it had $47 million in revenue, according to its tax records, and about 90 fulltime employees. It was flying high until 2012, when its fortunes started to freefall — along with Armstrong’s — after the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency exposed his history of doping and deceit in professional cycling. Since then, Livestrong has endured three consecutive years of annual revenue declines, down to $16.6 million in 2014 and with even less expected this year. With about half as many full-time employees as five years ago, the charity served 471,000 people in 2015. Wristband distribution also dipped to about 673,000 last year. Livestrong officials have had to “redesign their revenue generation based on what their programs are rather than Lance’s celebrity,” said Daniel Borochoff, president of CharityWatch, a watchdog group. “They go back to being more of a traditional charity in how they generate their revenue. Hopefully, they’ll be able to do that, but it’s a different challenge.” To shelter itself from the fallout

Lance Armstrong launched Livestrong in 1997 and still has supporters within the organization. surrounding its founder, the foundation tried to make a clean break — removing his Tour de France jerseys from an office wall and returning the artwork he had provided for decoration. Yet many Livestrong constituents still hail him as a hero, separating his sins in cycling from the lives that are touched by charity. “I’d give the man a kidney if he needed it,” said Genny Dalton, a cancer survivor. ‘WE DON’T NEED A CELEBRITY’

Cancer ranks as the second-leading cause of death in the USA, creating as much of a demand as ever

for Livestrong’s services — a portfolio of programs that helps people survive after the life-changing trauma of cancer diagnosis. The list includes navigating the health insurance maze, financial aid, preserving fertility and getting counseling for children. Armstrong’s controversies won’t lessen the need for the foundation’s programs, said Travis Kinney, 41, who was diagnosed with colorectal cancer last year and was scheduled for major surgery in early May. Kinney went to Livestrong to help him get counseling for his 11-year-old son and 8-year-old daughter.

“What Lance did had no bearing on the situation,” Kinney told USA TODAY Sports. “He started a great thing. … It continues to be a great resource. I don’t think he’s diminished the quality or the compassion. It’s not Lance here. It’s a bunch of awesome people trying to help survivors. I see it as two distinct things.” The people in charge of the foundation see it the same way but often are asked about their strategy: Should a new celebrity take Armstrong’s place as the face of the foundation? Wouldn’t that help boost donations? “We’re an organization that made a decision to stand on our own two feet, and it’s not about one person and it’s not about that person’s celebrity,” Livestrong Chairwoman Candice Aaron said. “It’s about all the people we serve. … We feel like we don’t need a celebrity, because the heroes of Livestrong are those people you encounter every day who are fighting cancer.” Armstrong declined to comment for this story. He resigned from the board in 2012. Aaron and Lee said they admired what Armstrong did for the foundation but said there had been no discussions or plans to bring him back. They also said the foundation wasn’t interested in giving the Lance Armstrong Foundation name to Armstrong because it’s a valued asset that would

be costly to transfer. If he got it, Armstrong could use it to start a charity that might compete with his old one. MORE WITH LESS

That leaves the foundation where it is now, highly protective of its assets, including about $70 million in reserves. It also is seeking stability at the top after two chief executives left in the past two years. Lee, Livestrong’s former chief financial officer, became Livestrong president in January, replacing Chandini Portteus, the CEO who resigned for personal reasons 10 months after being hired. Before her, Armstrong’s friend Doug Ulman stepped down as CEO in 2014. The foundation has scored several wins in the post-Armstrong era. uApril 14, the foundation announced a $1 million gift from Jeff and Jeri Mulder through their Shine Foundation in Michigan. uIn 2014, the foundation announced it would invest $50 million over 10 years to launch the Livestrong Cancer Institutes, partnering with the Dell Medical School at the University of Texas. uIt has expanded its partnership with YMCAs, where survivors can take a program to regain strength and health. Livestrong offers a grant to help fund it and now has it in 460 communities.

I have an old car and I live with my mom.” A variety of factors impact the cost of college and a student’s ability to pay back debt, said Mark Kantrowitz, a national student loan debt expert who has published several books, papers and editorials on the topic. The amount of debt an average college student has is affordable — but then there are the outliers, he said. Nationally, about a quarter of students graduate with excessive debt, but those who hurt the most are low-income students and students who take out loans but don’t graduate. As a general rule, if a student’s annual income is more than their student debt total, they shouldn’t have trouble paying the loans back in 10 years or less, he said. Those who do take on heavy debt struggle, even with a “good” job, he said. Christyn Gionfriddo, a Neptune, N.J., native and 2009 Centenary College graduate, is saddled with about $92,000 in student loan debt.

Jamie Bradley of Brick, N.J., owes $145,734 in college loans so she is living with her father to help speed up her repayment.

“(College is) a pretty expensive business model. The biggest thing is personnel costs.” Will Doyle, a professor of higher education at Vanderbilt University

tion, experts say. There’s less money going to the colleges to offset tuition hikes and provide financial aid for low-income students. But state funding isn’t the only factor. Colleges and universities have a different set of costs to consider when it comes to charging tuition — health care, facility costs, energy costs — which makes the price go up faster than consumer inflation, Kantrowitz said. “It’s a pretty expensive business model,” said Will Doyle, a professor of higher education at Vanderbilt University in Nashville, Tennessee. “The biggest thing is personnel costs. Every year, (colleges) are part of an economy

where it’s really difficult to become more efficient. It’s labor-intensive and it’s assumed that it takes a certain number of people and a certain amount of time to run a college.” Public colleges make up that shortfall by increasing tuition, shifting enrollment by admitting more out-of-state and international students, switching from full-time faculty to adjuncts because they’re cheaper, increasing class sizes and offering certain classes less often. Those changes can also affect the quality of education, he said. “During an economic downturn, states have to balance budgets,” Kantrowitz said. “Sales tax and income tax revenue are down — and higher education is not a priority.” The national average cost for tuition and fees is $9,142. A study by Vanderbilt University and the Pennsylvania State University Graduate School of Education found that New Jersey, Pennsylvania and New Hampshire’s public, four-year tuition costs are the highest when compared as a percent of the state’s average family income: 36%. The lowest was Rhode Island at 19%. California, Oklahoma, West Virginia and Florida followed closely behind at 20%.

The trend over the past few decades has been to shift the cost from the government to families, Kantrowitz said. But that’s a problem when family incomes have been flat for over 10 years. The median family income rose by 0.8% from 1995 to 2005, but declined by 0.2% (adjusted for inflation) from 2005 to 2014, according to U.S. Census data. Data show that the average income for college graduates is significantly higher than non-grads. Doyle said each year of education yields a 10% bump in income. Both Democratic presidential candidates have included proposals for some kind of subsidized tuition for public colleges and lower student loan interest rates. But is it feasible? u Bernie Sanders’ $75 billion a year plan includes: eliminating tuition at public schools, cutting student loan interest rates to 2.37%, requiring higher-income students to pay for fees, room and board. The plan would be funded by taxing all Wall Street transactions a fraction of a percent. u Hillary Clinton’s $350 billion, 10-year plan includes: free tuition by funneling money to states based on enrollment, requiring families to make a “realistic” contribution, requiring students to contribute wages from a 10-hourper-week job, cutting interest loan rates in half, allowing graduates to refinance their debt at the lowest rates. The plan would be funded by “closing tax loopholes and expenditures for the most fortunate.” u Likely Republican nominee Donald Trump has offered few ideas for easing student debt aside from stating that the federal government shouldn’t profit from such loans. But Doyle said it’s unclear to him how either of the Democrats’ proposals would work in practice. Setting aside politics and taxes, states have widely different subsidy patterns, and there would be “immediate” concerns about how it would work from state to state.

The doc will see you all now — at once Sharing time lets caregivers ‘get off the treadmill’ — and patients bond Anna Gorman

Kaiser Health News

The women sat in a circle and bemoaned their sleepless nights. It seemed unfair: Their babies weren’t born yet. Mayra Del Real’s daughter turned somersaults in her belly every few hours. Alexandria Smith lay awake with heartburn. When she wasn’t propped up with every pillow in the house, she was making bleary-eyed trips to the bathroom. Sofia Mejia, pregnant with her third baby, laughed knowingly. “It’s really priceless — those moments in the middle of the night,” she said. “You get used to it.” These moms-to-be were commiserating not over coffee but at a routine prenatal visit — all five at once. The women are participating in a unique type of health care: shared medical appointments. As a group, they see nurse midwife Mercedes Taha for 10 two-hour visits throughout their pregnancies. They take turns being examined, learn more about childbirth and parenting and, as their due dates approach, celebrate with a joint baby shower. Group visits like this one at Eisner Pediatric and Family Medical Center in downtown Los Angeles are becoming increasingly common as a way to cut health care costs and improve efficiency. The appointments, for such conditions as diabetes, obesity and liver disease, also ease the shortage of health care providers, especially in low-income communities, and help them avoid repeating the same information throughout the day. “Group visits have so much to offer busy, backlogged and harried physicians,” said Edward Noffsinger, a Bay Area psychologist and consultant on group visits. “They can get off the treadmill and sit down for 1½ hours with a group of patients.” LOS ANGELES

HEIDI DE MARCO, KAISER HEALTH NEWS

Mayra Del Real, right, sits with nurse midwife Mercedes Taha at the Eisner care facility in L.A. The approach has its skeptics, however. Jamie Court, president of the non-profit Consumer Watchdog based in Santa Monica, Calif., said educating multiple patients at once may have value, but providing treatment in a group is simply a way to “squeeze the patient and wring costs out of the health care system.” Patients can’t develop a meaningful relationship with providers in a group setting, he said. “It is totally cost-driven,” Court said. “When you are sharing your doctor, that’s not better for your health. It is better for the bottom line.” Smith, a first-time mom, doesn’t see a downside. She has coped better with the roller coaster of hormones since being part of the group, she said. “I feel like I’m not the only one, and I’m not crazy,” she said. Research on group visits has been mixed but several studies have shown they can improve clinical outcomes, reduce costs

and leave patients more satisfied. A Health Affairs review published in 2012, based on numerous studies of diabetic group care, found that the visits resulted in fewer hospitalizations and increased productivity among doctors. Studies of Centering Pregnancy — the same program used in Los Angeles — have found that participants are more likely to breastfeed and less likely to have preterm births than women in individual prenatal care. Group visits aren’t uniformly covered by insurers, but some plans pay for the care. Smith, 23, had just learned she was pregnant when she heard about the group visits from a nurse midwife at the Eisner clinic. At first, she worried about discussing her life or exposing her belly in a group of strangers. But she said her boyfriend wasn’t thrilled about becoming a dad and she feared going through the experience on her own. Mejia, 31, had a different rea-

son for taking part. She’d had one-on-one appointments with her older two children but often felt rushed.

“It is totally cost-driven. When you are sharing your doctor, that’s not better for your health. It is better for the bottom line.” Jamie Court, president of the non-profit Consumer Watchdog

SANDERS SAYS HE ISN’T GOING ANYWHERE In the Democratic race, Sanders scored a win in Indiana, but his victory did little to change the overall trajectory of the primary battle, where Hillary Clinton holds an almost insumountable delegate lead. Nevertheless, the Vermont senator vowed this week that he’ll stay in until “the last vote is counted.” “I don't know, maybe I'm oldfashioned, but I think that the people of every state in this country — including the largest state in America, California — should have a right to cast their votes as to who they want to see as president of the United States, and what kind of agenda they want the Democratic Party to have,” Sanders told NPR.

And with that, we have a presumptive Republican presidential nominee. Donald Trump’s decisive victory over Ted Cruz and John Kasich in the Indiana primary on Tuesday led to both dropping out of the race, leaving only one Republican standing.

Convicted drug lord Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman, who twice pulled off brazen jailbreaks, was transferred to a prison in northern Mexico near the Texas border early Saturday, according to the Associated Press. The Sinaloa cartel boss was moved from the maximum-security Altiplano lockup near Mexico City to a prison in Ciudad Juárez, across the border from El Paso, a security official told the AP, without giving a reason for the transfer. The official was not authorized to discuss the matter publicly and spoke on condition of anonymity. Jose Refugio Rodriguez, an attorney for Guzman, confirmed that he was sent to the Cefereso No. 9 prison. He said Guzman’s defense team was not notified beforehand, and one of his lawyers was traveling to Juárez to try to meet with their client. “I don’t know what the strategy is,” Refugio told the AP. “I can’t say what the government is thinking.” SAUDI ARABIA OUSTS LONGTIME OIL MINISTER

fants shouldn’t sleep with stuffed animals, that there’s a difference between “baby blues” and postpartum depression. Education is a critical part of the group visits, said Colleen Senterfitt, COO of Centering Healthcare Institute. “One woman’s question is another woman’s question,” she said. After taking her own blood pressure and checking her weight one day, Smith leaned back on a makeshift bed in the corner of the room and lifted her shirt. As the other women chatted in the circle, the nurse midwife stretched a tape measure over her stomach. She was on track — 35 weeks. “Is the baby moving?” she asked. “Yeah, she’s kicking the air out of me,” Smith said. The midwife ran an ultrasound wand over her stomach and zeroed in on the baby’s heartbeat. Smith smiled. “Sounds great,” Taha said, patting her patient’s hand. But you’ve gained a little more weight than expected, the midwife said. “I used to be so careful about what I ate,” Smith said. “But the cravings are really bad.” “OK, we’ll talk about that,” Taha said. “Maybe others are having the same issue.” Taha said that the group visits give her more time to both teach and connect with her patients — a contrast to the traditional, rushed appointments that lasts just 15 minutes. (The groups typically include eight to 12 patients, though this group had fewer.) “I really get to know the patients in great depth,” she said. “I feel a little more invested.” Early Thanksgiving morning, Smith’s contractions came five minutes apart. Soon after she stood up, her water broke. Though her due date was three weeks away, she became the first in the group to give birth. She had a girl, just under six pounds. She named her Christianna Nohime Hernandez. “One of the first things that popped into mind is I need to let all the girls in the group know,” she said.

TRUMP’S EFFORTS TO UNITE GOP ARE ... COMPLICATED Almost always after a primary campaign, the leading figures in the party quickly close ranks and back their new presumptive nominee. Not so with Donald Trump. Former presidents George H.W. Bush and George W. Bush? They have no plans to endorse, their offices said, which likely doesn’t come as a shock given the very personal attacks lobbed at Jeb Bush by Trump during the campaign. Likewise for Mitt Romney, the 2012 Republican nominee. Jeb Bush and Lindsey Graham both said Friday they wouldn’t vote for Trump. Then there’s House Speaker Paul Ryan, the party’s highestranking current officeholder. Ryan told CNN on Thursday that, regarding a Trump endorsement, he’s “just not there right now,” saying the real estate mogul needs “to do more to unify this party.” He added, though, that he hoped to eventually support Trump. Trump fired back that he wasn’t “ready to support Speaker Ryan’s agenda.” The two are scheduled to

Sanders will have clout at convention He has earned enough votes on committees to shape the Democratic platform Nicole Gaudiano USA TODAY

If Bernie Sanders wants to upend the Democratic National Convention, he’ll likely have all the tools he needs. The Democratic nomination increasingly seems Hillary Clinton’s for the taking. But the number of pledged delegates Sanders will have collected by the time the convention begins July 25 should give him a sizable presence on convention committees and a strong voice in shaping the Democratic Party’s rules and platform to include some of his top priorities. Tad Devine, one of Sanders’ top advisers and a veteran of contentious convention battles, said he expects “good will” at the convention between Sanders and Clinton, and agreement on a number of issues. But he raised the possibility that Sanders will play hardball if negotiations fail. Devine said Sanders should have enough committee votes to file “minority reports” — dissents from positions held by the majority of delegates at the convention. Using that tool could mire the proceedings in debate and votes if Clinton won’t agree on issues important to Sanders. Democratic Party rules allow for minority reports at the request of members representing 25% of total votes on the convention’s Platform, Credentials and Rules committees. Sanders has won about 45% of the pledged delegates awarded in state primaries and caucuses so far. Most committee members are awarded to candidates based on the results. Sanders wants to leverage the support he’s earned from “millions of people voting for him” to influence the Democratic Party platform and the convention’s rules, Devine said. Devine expressed concerns about two convention officials — Connecticut Gov. Dannel Malloy, co-chairman of the Platform Committee, and former Massachusetts congressman Barney Frank, co-chairman of the Rules Committee. WASHINGTON

WILLIAM GLASHEEN, THE POST-CRESCENT, VIA USA TODAY

Democratic presidential hopeful Bernie Sanders, speaking at the Fox Cities Performing Arts Center in Appleton, Wis., will have an influence on the party’s convention platform. Frank and Malloy have endorsed Clinton, and both, Devine said, have been “hostile” toward Sanders. Frank, for example, has sharply criticized Sanders’ positions on breaking up big banks. The two are among the committee officials appointed by Democratic National Committee Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz. Devine said Wednesday the campaign hasn’t formally objected to their appointments and hasn’t decided how to proceed. Frank has said he would step aside from his co-chairmanship if the Democratic nomination is still uncertain in June and if a Rules Committee decision could be the deciding factor. With Clinton’s decisive lead in delegates, that appears unlikely. A Connecticut Democratic Party spokesman said Thursday that Malloy, who has criticized Sanders on guns, agrees with Sanders on many issues. “We are confident that the

Platform Committee will come together behind a core set of values that unite us as Democrats and stand in stark contrast to the agenda of the Republican Party,” Leigh Appleby said. “I don’t want to suggest that we have some big grand plan here,” Devine said of the convention. “We will do that in the weeks ahead.” Devine said Sanders hasn’t seriously thought through a convention strategy and is focused instead on winning upcoming primaries. Sanders also hopes to persuade unpledged superdelegates — who can vote for the candidate of their choice at the convention — to switch their allegiance to him if they’ve already stated their support for Clinton. Sanders already has listed the issues that he wants to make part of the party platform, including a Medicare-for-all health care system, breaking up Wall Street financial institutions, a ban on fracking, and a tuition-free edu-

cation at public colleges and universities. Devine said he expects Sanders will try to reform the superdelegate system and to open all Democratic primaries to independent voters.

have the same goals. “We really are going to be unified and have a tremendous progressive agenda to run on in the fall,” she said. The last major Democratic convention fight was in 1980, when Sen. Ted Kennedy — after winning state nominating contests late in the primary season — used rules and platform fights as part of an unsuccessful effort to deny the nomination to thenpresident Jimmy Carter. Kennedy filed a blizzard of minority reports, which would have taken days to debate, as leverage to force a vote on rules changes and a decision to give him a prime-time speaking slot at the convention, said Elaine Kamarck, author of Primary Politics. Sanders will have a lot of power to propose changes and probably to bring minority reports, though it’s doubtful he’ll have the votes to win on the convention floor, Kamarck said. But she said many issues are resolved before or at the convention. “It’s in the interest of the nominee to have as peaceful a convention as possible and not to show the differences within the party,” she said. Devine, who has represented winning Democratic nomination candidates at past conventions, said he was forced to make concessions at conventions in the 1980s or face “a really tough fight.” He said he hopes there will be agreement on Sanders’ proposals, and the campaign has no

plans to pursue a Kennedy-like strategy. “Can that change?” Devine said. “Well, sure. Anything can change. ... But I don’t anticipate that. I think everyone is operating in good faith and that we all want to achieve the same goal, which is to make sure the next president is a Democrat.”

Trump in line to receive classified briefings Some fret about information given to likely GOP nominee Gregory Korte @gregorykorte USA TODAY

WASHINGTON Donald Trump’s all-but-certain nomination as the Republican candidate for president has prompted questions about what kinds of intelligence briefings presidential candidates should have access to. Under a long-standing bipartisan tradition, presidents allow their would-be successors to receive classified intelligence briefings to bring them up to speed on emerging threats around the world. The briefings usually begin immediately after the party conventions and do not include topsecret sources and methods. Shortly after his two remaining GOP opponents dropped out of the race Wednesday, Trump told The Washington Post that he was eager to begin receiving routine classified briefings. But not everyone is comfortable with Trump gaining access to classified information. Sen. Chris Murphy, D-Conn., told the website BuzzFeed on Thursday that Trump “has no moral or ethical grounding” and shouldn’t be privy to state secrets. “He wouldn’t think twice of taking classified information and putting it out in the public realm if he thought it served his political purposes,” Murphy said. White House press secretary Josh Earnest expressed full confidence Thursday in Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton’s ability to keep classified material secret, despite an FBI investigation into her use of an unsanctioned private email server where she received now-classified emails. But he stopped short of giving Trump that same benefit of the doubt. “We’ll have to see what decision the Director of National Intelligence makes,” he said. “The decisions about how and whether and when and what to brief to the presidential nomi-

Presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump, speaking Friday in Eugene, Ore., is eager to receive briefings. nees is a decision that will be made by our intelligence professionals,” Earnest said. “The White House will not be interfering in the decisions made by our intelligence community.” Trump has the least experience in intelligence matters of any of the remaining candidates for either party’s nomination. Clinton was a former secretary of State, and senators including Bernie Sanders get regular intelligence briefings. Trump has had difficulty articulating facts about world hot spots, sometimes misidentifying and mispronouncing names of militant groups and countries. Director of National Intelligence James Clapper told reporters last week that the transition planning is well underway. “We have already established a

plan for briefing both candidates when they are named, and certainly after November when the president-elect is known and it gets more intensive. We already have a team set up to do that, and a designated lead, who is not a po-

litical appointee,” Clapper said. He said the briefings will happen as the candidates’ schedules allow and will take place in local secured facilities. The bipartisan tradition of briefing presidential candidates dates to World War II. “Traditionally, it all started with Harry Truman, because he became president when FDR died and he had no idea that the Manhattan Project even existed, and he vowed that would never happen to another president,” said David Priess, a former CIA intelligence briefer and the author of the book The President’s Book of Secrets: The Untold Story of Intelligence Briefings from Kennedy to Obama. “It’s continued as a pattern ever since.” The timing of those briefings has traditionally begun after the

nominating conventions — with one exception. The week before Jimmy Carter was nominated at the Democratic convention, President Ford personally dispatched CIA Director George H.W. Bush to Plains, Ga., to meet with his opponent and make arrangements for future briefings. But as Priess recounts, “Bush exceeded his mandate” and ended up briefing Carter on “virtually the entire field of intelligence.” When neither candidate is an incumbent, the tradition is to give each candidate an identical briefing — to the extent that if one candidate asks a question, the answer goes to both candidates. Priess said that’s because of a “scrupulous ethic of the intelligence community not to get involved in politics, even as they serve the politicians.”

AROUND THE WORLD WITHOUT FUEL Solar Impulse 2, a solar-powered airplane that uses no fuel, is making a nearly 22,000-mile, around-the-world voyage. The journey began March 9, 2015, in Abu Dhabi and is scheduled to end there later this summer. The plane has endured many challenges, including being grounded in Hawaii for the entire winter due to a fried battery, ruined during a historic five-day flight from Japan to Hawaii last summer. Still, that flight set world records of distance and duration for solar aviation, as well as the world record for the longest solo flight ever. A look at the plane, the pilots and some comparisons to two other solo flights that made aviation history: Fuselage Made of carbon fiber, three times lighter than paper

Antenna Wing Cockpit Engines 10 horsepower each

Insulation

Resin layer Solar cells 17,248 solar cells, the thickness of a human hair, cover the top of the horizontal stabilizer, fuselage and wings. The cells are protected by a thin layer of UV-resistant, waterproof resin, allowing them to be molded into curvatures of the surface. Energy from these cells gets directed into four high-voltage batteries.

Batteries Four high-voltage rechargeable lithium polymer batteries store energy produced by the solar cells. The stored energy allows the aircraft to fly at night. High-density lightweight insulation foam protects the batteries from cold temperatures, which could reduce their capacity. If one of the four motors should fail, battery power can be dispersed among the remaining functional motors.

FUNDING GETS BOOST

@jswartz USA TODAY

SAN FRANCISCO When Luxe Valet and Hertz executives sat down to discuss a potential partnership earlier this year, they had no inkling it would lead to a $50 million funding round led by Hertz Global Holdings in April. “Serendipitous,” Luxe CEO Curtis Lee said, recounting the blur-fast talks. (The company had previously raised $25 million.) “There were so many nuances, intricacies that can benefit both companies, it seemed obvious. Two worlds are colliding.” The convergence of tech startups reshaping brick-and-mortar industries and the Fortune 500 companies delving into digital services is making for new couplings in venture funding.

Corporate venture groups poured more than $2.5 billion into 228 deals to start-ups in the first quarter of 2016, accounting for 23.5% of all venture deals — its highest level since the third quarter of 2008, according to a report from PricewaterhouseCoopers and the National Venture Capital Association.

Pabst, MillerCoors locked in brewing legal battle Contract dispute turns bitter, threatens Pabst plans Bruce Vielmetti

The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel

Early last year, Pabst Brewing Co. was flirting with a return to its roots, exploring the launch this year of a microbrewery at the historic Pabst plant here. Instead, Pabst has returned to Milwaukee to wage a high-stakes legal battle against hometown heavy hitter MillerCoors LLC. Pabst and its owner, Los Angeles-based Blue Ribbon Intermediate Holdings LLC, claim in a lawsuit filed in circuit court that MillerCoors breached without warning a long-term agreement to brew Pabst products, after repeated assurances that MillerCoors had sufficient capacity to honor the deal into the next decade. The lawsuit characterized MilMILWAUKEE

lerCoors’ moves as “an improper attempt to frustrate Pabst’s contract rights, sabotage Pabst’s ability to compete and consolidate MillerCoors’ already large market share.” Losing the chance to extend the agreement, Pabst says, will cost the company about $400 million in damages. “We expect this issue to be resolved in our favor, and that it will not affect Pabst’s long-term ability to brew,” Pabst spokeswoman Alya Wilhelm said. “The innovation brewery is still slated to open as planned and is unaffected by this suit,” she said, referring to Pabst’s plans to open the microbrewery and tasting room. MillerCoors spokesman Jonathan Stern said, “We are aware of the lawsuit but can’t comment at this time.” According to the lawsuit, current Pabst CEO Eugene Kashper relied on MillerCoors’ assurances about the viability of its deal to brew and package Pabst products when he and another company

Two companies steeped in Milwaukee history: Pabst Brewing (historic plant, left) and MillerCoors. Pabst plans to open a microbrewery and tasting room at the old plant site.

“We expect this issue to be resolved in our favor, and that it will not affect Pabst’s long-term ability to brew.” Alya Wilhelm, Pabst

formed Blue Ribbon Intermediate Holdings and bought Pabst in November 2014. It says talks on extending the 2007 agreement five years beyond 2020 began normally last year. But during negotiations, MillerCoors announced it would be closing its Eden, N.C., brewery,

which Pabst says is the main MillerCoors facility for brewing Pabst products, and told Pabst it would no longer have sufficient beer production capacity to meet the agreement. The only way to continue the deal, Pabst claims it was told, was if the fee paid to MillerCoors after 2020 nearly tripled. Pabst’s suit calls the offer a poison pill meant to “effect the premature termination of the agreement.” MillerCoors experienced a change of leadership last summer, when Gavin Hattersley replaced Tom Long as CEO. In September, Pabst claims, Hattersley began backtracking on claims about capacity and his company’s willingness to extend the agreemen. MillerCoors, which has been brewing Pabst products since 1999, suddenly claimed it makes no profit on the endeavor, which Pabst calls “facially false and made in bad faith.” Contributing: Tom Daykin, The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel

COMMISSION VS. FEE

How to pick financial adviser right for you

GETTY IMAGES/ISTOCKPHOTO

hould you switch from a commission to a fee-based retirement account? If you work with a brokerage account, your adviser may soon ask you that very question. That’s because under the Labor Department’s new conflict-of-interest rule, which goes into effect next April, brokers are required to discuss with their clients what meets their best interests: keeping assets in a commission-based account or switching to a fee-based account, where the typical fee is 1% of assets under management, or AUM. So, what advice do experts have for investors who have to decide what’s in their own best interest?

Robert Powell

Special for USA TODAY

COMMISSION-BASED ACCOUNTS

If your assets are in a commission-based retirement account and you don’t need advice, stay with your current broker. “If you’re generally a buy-andhold investor, aren’t doing regular transactions, don’t need ongoing management, because the portfolio isn’t changing and don’t want any of the other advice … you shouldn’t be in a feebased account,” says Michael Kitces, publisher of the Nerd’s Eye View blog. “Just pay your $10-per-trade commission each time you need to make a change to the portfolio — which should

be almost never — and move on.” Others go one step further. “Does this consumer need and want professional financial advice?” asks John Olsen, president of OlsenAnnuityEducation .com. “If ‘no,’ then the question is easily resolved. Don’t pay for it. Choose only those investment and insurance products that impose no, or the lowest, fees and be your own adviser.” Drawbacks to DIY and commission-based accounts

“An adviser who was compensated by an initial sales commission for selling an investment or insurance product and who receives no further compensation over time may be reluctant to perform the monitoring required,” Olsen says. Likewise, there are drawbacks to becoming a do-it-yourselfer. One, you may not have the knowledge or time to serve as your own counsel. “And two,

many — perhaps most — investments and insurance products require ongoing monitoring to ensure that they’re operating to best meet the investor’s needs,” Olsen says.

FEE-BASED ACCOUNTS

Meanwhile, “if the consumer requires ongoing advice and monitoring of her investment portfolio, a fee arrangement makes the most sense,” Olsen says. That could be an hourly fee, annual retainer or a fee that is a percentage of AUM. If, however, you don’t need ongoing advice, consider switching to a commission-based account. “If your adviser isn’t providing some kind of genuine ongoing value — in the form of portfolio management, financial planning advice or some other value-add — you shouldn’t be paying an ongoing fee.” Others agree that the decision to switch turns on value. “The

value provided in an advisory relationship often extends beyond investment advice to include areas such as tax planning, family governance, risk management, retirement planning and the like,” says John Nersesian, a managing director with Nuveen Investments. “It’s important to consider the value of these services in the context of the cost.” Doing nothing can be in your best interest

To be fair, advisers who do “nothing” can be acting in their client’s best interest. “Notably, sometimes the best trade to do really is ‘nothing,’ so the fact that an adviser is paid an ongoing AUM fee to not trade isn’t necessarily fatal,” Kitces says. Beware reverse churning

Experts warn against switching from a commission-based to fee-based account without getting a cost-benefit analysis from the adviser. “You should only pay your adviser for ongoing management or ongoing advice,” Kitces says. “But if you aren’t going to use an adviser for ongoing management nor ongoing advice, the adviser shouldn’t be recommending an ongoing fee relationship to do nothing.”

This, Kitces says, is the essence of “reverse churning,” a practice that regulators have been scrutinizing recently. Personal preference

Cost-benefit analysis aside, what matters most could be the adviser, not how they’re paid. “It may well be that the preference a consumer has, as to mode of compensation, is less important than being able to work with a particular adviser,” Olsen says.

BOTTOM LINE

“The key issue, regardless of fee structure, is what am I receiving for what I am paying, what is the value of professional advice,” Nersesian says. So, when deciding what’s best for you — feebased or commission-based — consider your account size, your account activity and the types of investments you have. And regardless of fee structure, Nersesian says, investors should demand the following: transparency and objectivity, which are the key objectives of the Labor Department’s new conflict-of-interest/fiduciary rule.

College costs call for tough talks early on

Your kids can chase their dreams without trampling your wallet Sue Grossardt

Special for USA TODAY

College planning is a big deal. In fact, for many families, paying for college is one of their biggest investments. With college expenses and student debt on the rise, wise parents engage in candid conversations on this hot topic earlier, rather than later, with their college-bound kids. How early? As soon as middle school. Some tips to get the conversation started:

TIPS FOR TALKING POINTS Explore career interests early with shadowing in the workplace and on-campus university workshops geared for high school students. Make a list of desired colleges and tuition costs and fees. Put a pencil to the equation: “Sticker price” of a college minus scholarships, financial aid and family savings equals how will the balance be paid?

FOCUS ON COST

The cost of a four-year degree — including tuition, fees and living expenses — has exploded. Public school cost 129% more in the 2013-14 enrollment year adjusted for inflation compared with 30 years before, according to the College Board. Meanwhile, the U.S. median household income rose just 15% in that same 30year time frame, Census figures show. Parents shouldn’t shy away from sharing those financial realities with their teens. And their heart-to-heart chat may include divulging the balances in the 529 plan and other investment buckets set aside for college. “You should talk candidly,” says Amy Podzius, financial planning director at TIAA (Teachers Insurance and Annuity Association of America). “Given the cost of college these days, it’s highly possible that you haven’t saved enough to cover it.”

GET SOME SKIN IN THE GAME

“Deep down, your teen wants skin in the game. And that includes college planning, selection and financing,” says Al Hicks, certified financial planner at Summit Planning Group. “Whether the student pays for tuition or room and board, or even books, it is a great motivator.” Another way students can have skin in the game is by taking an active role in researching the cost of each school they are interested in. Picking a college needs to be a rational choice, but teens with big dreams might not see it that way. “Your kids need to understand what they have to work with before they start looking,” Podzius says. “It’s not fair to let them apply to the Ivy Leagues and wait until they get an acceptance letter to tell them you can’t afford it.” NO GUILT ALLOWED

GETTY IMAGES/ ISTOCKPHOTO

Parents shouldn’t feel guilty about giving kids a reality check when it comes to choosing the college of their dreams. Big decisions in life have limits. “A reality check is a gift to our kids,” says Brett Graff, economist and author of Not Buying It: Stop Overspending and Start Raising Happier, Healthier, More Successful Kids. “A person’s college major is more likely to determine her future earnings, not the name of the college, so the highest ranking isn’t always the best choice, particularly if the kid will take out loans.” Hicks agrees that avoiding debt is smart. “College debt has become a stranglehold on college graduates,” Hicks says. “It’s not because of the cost of college, but because of the college choice that is made. A wrong investment is

always more costly than a right one.” WHAT’S YOUR MAJOR?

Employable degrees have become the buzzword that can be difficult — but necessary — to talk about. Help your teen discern the difference between a hobby and a career. For example, say your student is naturally artistic. Talk about whether this talent will serve them well as a career path or a creative outlet. What are the most employable degrees? According to the National Association of Colleges and Employers, students who choose business, engineering and information technology generally will be in greater demand. “History, political science and music degrees are examples in which it is even harder to get any job without a master’s degree or a Ph.D.,” Hicks says. Putting a dollar value to the extra years of tuition is a healthy conversation to have early in this process. DEFINE GOALS EARLY

Encourage your student to explore interests, majors and career options early in high school to put them on the path to graduate in four years. That saves both time and money. Keep in mind that about 80% of students in the United States change their major at least once, according to the National Center for Education Statistics. How many of us, at age 18, knew exactly what we wanted to be when we grew up? The reality is that the process of uncovering that is part of growing up. Having some tough talks ahead of time could help limit the cost of that lesson.

Huskies’ prospects for Porter improve By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

It seems the University of Washington wasn’t the only school to offer Michael Porter Sr., dad of high school junior phenom Michael Porter Jr., a coaching job in recent weeks. The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports that Missouri coach Kim Anderson offered Porter Sr., “a lucrative multiyear contract offer” to leave his job as Mizzou assistant women’s coach to join the men’s staff. The P-D said Texas A&M also tried to hire Porter Sr., who Friday accepted an offer to work on Lorenzo Romar’s Husky staff. Washington, of course, now becomes the overwhelming favorite to land Porter, a 6-8 small forward from Tolton Catholic in Columbia, Mo., who is ranked No. 2 in the recruiting Class of 2017 by Rivals.com. Porter’s brother Jontay, a sophomore guard, has already orally committed to play at Washington. Romar, by the way, is godfather of Michael Porter Jr., who has a list of 10: Washington, Kansas University, Duke, Kentucky, Missouri, Stanford, Indiana, UCLA, Syracuse and Virginia. “I have no idea where (Michael) is headed, but I know we’re going to be recruiting him hard,” Porter Sr. told Scout.com. “Ultimately it’s his decision and we were up front when we were talking about (joining the staff) that this was not about Michael coming too. They were separate things and we’ve kept them that way.” Porter Sr., has spent the last three seasons as assistant women’s coach at Missouri. His daughters, Bri and Cerra, play for the Tigers. Porter Sr, and Romar are longtime buddies, each standing up in the other’s wedding. “Washington now has Michel Porter’s father as an assistant, brother as a 2018 commit, and godfather as its head coach. Strong pitch,” assessed CBSsports.com’s Jeff Borzello. It is not known whether Porter’s buddy, Trae Young (6-1 junior, Norman, Okla. North), will add Washington to his list of schools. The 13-ranked Young has a list of KU, Duke, Kentucky, Oklahoma, Stanford, Virginia, Texas and others. Porter and Young have talked about being a package deal. l Green offered: Quade Green, a 5-11 junior point guard from Philadelphia’s Neumann-Goretti High, who is ranked No. 50 by Rivals.com, last week received a scholarship offer from KU, according to Zagsblog.com. “Coach (Bill) Self gave me an offer. I’ve heard they let their guards go (and) they

Nyquist remains unbeaten Louisville, Ky. (ap) — The racing world wondered if there was a worthy successor to last year’s Triple Crown champion American Pharoah. Enter Nyquist. The bay colt who lacks any distinctive markings won the Kentucky Derby by 11⁄4 lengths on Saturday, improving to 8-0 in his career as the fourth consecutive favorite to win the race. Ridden by Mario Gutierrez, Nyquist ran 11⁄4 miles in 2:01.31. The 3-year-old colt became the eighth unbeaten winner in the race’s 142-year

history, and the first since Big Brown in 2008. He paid $6.60, $4.80 and $3.60 as the 2-1 favorite in the full field of 20 horses. “We got a beautiful trip from the start to the end,” Gutierrez said. Nyquist delivered a second Derby win for Gutierrez, trainer Doug O’Neill and owner J. Paul Reddam. The Southern Californiabased team was behind 2012 Derby and Preakness winner I’ll Have Another. “This is such a special horse,” O’Neill said. “You can see it in his eye on a

daily basis and he’s such a professional. Any human sport, he’d be the top-notch athlete. He’s just first class.” Nyquist enjoyed a perfect trip over the Churchill Downs dirt in front of 167,227, the second-largest crowd in Derby history. The colt broke well out of the 13th post and showed some early speed getting away from the gate. Gutierrez eased Nyquist back to let speedster Danzing Candy David J.

KANSAS UNIVERSITY SHORTSTOP MATT MCLAUGHLIN attempts to tag Texas Tech runner Tanner Gardner. Tech defeated KU, 9-2, on Saturday at Hoglund Ballpark.

In the grand scheme of things, Kansas University junior Michael Tinsley’s triple in the bottom of the ninth inning of Saturday’s 9-2 loss to No. 8 Texas Tech at Hoglund Ballpark meant very little. But for Tinsley himself, one of the handful of bright spots in an otherwise rough and frustrating season for the Jayhawks, the hit was very meaningful. Not only was the one-out line drive to center field the Menlo Park, Calif., native’s second triple of the season,

but it also raised his batting average to an even .400. Seventy-four hits in 185 at-bats, which puts him at the top of the Big 12 Conference, more than 10 points ahead of the next closest hitter. “Nice,” Tinsley exclaimed after the game when asked about reaching .400. “I knew I was close, but I didn’t know if I had reached it or not.” The hit was the second of the day for Tinsley, who has been on an absolute terror for the past six weeks.

Fowler takes lead at Wells Fargo Charlotte, N.C. — Rickie Fowler shot a 4-under 68 on Saturday to take the third-round lead in the Wells Fargo Championship. Fowler, the 2012 winner for his first PGA Tour victory, birdied Nos. 14-17 and closed with two pars to reach 9-under 207. Roberto Castro was a stroke back, and Justin Rose and James Hahn were 7 under. Castro had a 71, Hahn shot 68, and Rose 69. Fowler won The Players Championship and Deutsche Bank Championship last year and took the European Tour event in Abu Dhabi early this year. Though he blew a late lead and lost the Phoenix Open in a playoff this season, he has the confidence to handle pressure situations in the final round. Phil Mickelson and defending champion Rory McIlroy struggled, dropping eight shots behind Fowler. Mickelson, looking for his first win at the Quail Hollow Club in 13 starts, was in contention until a quadruple- bogey 8 on his old nemesis, the 18th hole. He finished with a 76. McIlroy, the tournament’s only two-time winner, had two bogeys in the first four holes and shot 73. Scott Langley (71) and Andrew Loupe (74) were 6 under. Former Kansas University golfer Gary Woodland shot a one-under-par 71 and remained eight strokes off the lead.

Barnes scored from distance in the 30th minute. He ran past the defense to win Erick Torres’ through ball and Barnes angled it past goalkeeper Tim Melia. Wenger doubled Houston’s lead in the first minute of firsthalf stoppage time when he powered a shot past Melia. Former Houston captain Brad Davis started for Sporting KC in his first game against his former club. He spent the past 10 seasons with Houston.

KYLE BUSCH (18) CELEBRATES AFTER WINNING A NASCAR SPRINT CUP RACE on Saturday at Kansas Speedway in Kansas City, Kan.

Kyle Busch finally wins Kansas Sprint Cup race Kansas City, Kan. — Kyle Busch sailed away from Kevin Harvick after a late wreck collected several of the leaders Saturday night, and finally won a NASCAR Sprint Cup race at Kansas Speedway after years of misfortunes. Busch won for the third time this season, and now only needs to win at Charlotte and Pocono to knock off every track in the series. Twice he had crashed out of the Chase race at Kansas, and he had failed to finish four times on the vexing 11⁄2-mile tri-oval. All of which made his bow along the front straightaway feel so much better. “There’s been a lot of rough days at Kansas,” he said, “that’s for sure.”

LJWorld.com/highschool • Facebook.com/LJWorldpreps • Twitter.com/LJWpreps

Harvick was second after making major changes to his car following a poor qualifying effort. Kurt Busch was third, Matt Kenseth finished fourth and Ryan Blaney wound up fifth. “You know, it’s our best finish of the year. That’s the bright side,” said Kenseth, who was alongside Busch on the final restart with 19 laps to go. “I thought we were as good as the 18 if we could have had position, but it was tough restarting on that bottom.” Martin Truex Jr. looked like he’d finally get a Kansas victory before a loose wheel forced him to pit.

SUNFLOWER LEAGUE SWIMMING

Firebirds charge late, take second By Benton Smith basmith@ljworld.com

Olathe — Free State High’s girls swimmers knew entering the Sunflower League Championship the odds were against them keeping pace with perennial power Shawnee Mission East. The Lancers, who had won five consecutive Class 6A state titles before the Firebirds broke their run in 2015, once again had the numbers to cruise past the competition in team points. But defending 6A champion FSHS didn’t have second place sealed up by any means. Following the 100 fly Saturday at Prairie Trail Middle School, Olathe Northwest and Free State were tied in the battle to become East’s runner-up. Consequently, Firebirds coach Annette McDonald had a simple message for the final half of the meet: “OK, girls, if you want this, you’re gonna have to race for it.” In the events that followed, senior Sydney Sirimongkhon-Dyck (100 free), senior Cierra Campbell (500 free) and Free State’s 200 free relay

FSHS finished the league championship 108 points behind SME, but a comfortable 35 ahead of ONW. Lawrence finished fourth in the team standings. “They were ready,” McDonald said, adding the team’s leaders facilitated a pressure-free, yet competitive, approach for the response to the Ravens’ challenge. “They were stepping up and swimming their best.” Sirimongkhon-Dyck, whose first-place time of 23.78 seconds in the 50

free final beat out a pair of ONW swimmers, gave Free State its only individual league title. “It’s really exhausting, of course, just because you have to put everything you have into that short amount of time — because you know it’s gonna be over in less than 30 seconds,” the senior said of the sprint. “I’m just as tired after the 50 as I am in the 100 or any other race.” Campbell, who also finished second in the 200 free, said all the Firebirds showed improvement. “It’s really exciting to see everyone getting closer and closer to their

goals,” Campbell said. “And I think by state the energy’s gonna be high and everybody’s gonna go above and beyond.” The Lions experienced similar individual progress at the league meet, where freshman Emily Guo won a league title in the 200 IM, finishing in 2:11.48 — more than a second and a half ahead of runner-up Emma Linscott, of SME. “I looked at the times,” Guo said of her individual expectations entering the weekend, “but I try not to let it affect how I’m gonna swim. I just go out and try my hardest.” Once the 200 IM start-

peting again the morning following league prelims. “But they ended up dropping time again (in other events) and holding their places or improving in almost everything.” Lions freshman Morgan Jones set personal records while earning third place in both the 200 free (1:58.58) and 500 free (5:12.15). “I think it was just a rough first race of the day,” Jones said, looking back at a disappointing opening relay. “We were all warmed up for other races, so it went good.” Added Guo: “I tried to use it as motivation to get me fired up for the next races. But I think if you put it behind you you’ll be fine.”

Lions’ Abromeit, Firebirds’ Nickel, FSHS doubles reach state tennis By Bobby Nightengale bnightengale@ljworld.com

Teaming back up for the second straight postseason, Free State High junior Ian Pultz-Earle and sophomore Erik Czapinski raised their expectations for regionals and state. The doubles duo accomplished their first goal at the Class 6A regional, finishing runnerup on Saturday at Rock Chalk Park. They were two of the six city players who qualified for the state tournament, including Free State juniors Seamus Ryan and Jonah Pester, freshman Sawyer Nickel and Lawrence High senior Elliott Abromeit. Pultz-Earle and Czapinski, seeded No. 2 entering the tournament, won their first three matches with relative ease, cruising to straight-set victories. In the championship against top-seeded Shawnee Mission Northwest’s Tyler Garland and Reagan Walsh, the Firebirds gave them a much tougher look than their previous meeting during the season, losing 7-5, 6-3. “I haven’t had those good of returns in ages,” Czapinski said. “Some of those plays, I pulled out of I don’t know where.” Czapinski usually provides the vocal presence and Pultz-Earle is more reserved until he belts out, “Let’s go!” after big points. Their secondplace finish helped the Firebirds take second in the team standings with 12 points. LHS tied for sixth with five. It’s the second straight season Ryan and Pester have qualified for state as a doubles pairings, but Saturday was their first

FREE STATE DOUBLES PLAYERS SEAMUS RYAN, left, and Jonah Pester slap hands after a point against Lawrence High on Saturday at Rock Chalk Park. time playing together this year. In their match to qualify for state, Ryan and Pester lost the first set and dropped the first two games of the second set. With elimination nearing, they fought back and won six of the next eight games before winning in the third set. “I feel like once we clicked today, it went all uphill,” Ryan said after they took fifth place. “I think we just really get along well on and off the court, so that really helps.” Abromeit, on his 18th birthday, qualified for state when he completed a 21⁄2-hour marathon against Nickel, winning 5-7, 7-6 (5), [10-5] in the quarterfinals. In the second set, Abromeit led, 5-2, before Nickel won four straight games. One game away from losing the match, Abromeit regained his focus to force a third set, then jumped to a quick lead in the third set super tiebreaker, winning on match point with an ace. “It was who could last the longest,” Abromeit said. The friendly rivals were competitive with a spot for state on the line. Abromeit asked for a line judge at the end of the second set. But then there

were light-hearted moments, including Nickel apologizing to Abromeit for a backhanded winner that landed on the line. “It’s just brotherhood and we know each other and we know how to play,” Nickel said. “It’s always fun playing him.” Abromeit, in front of his prom group who watched before their dinner reservations, fought back from a one-set deficit for the second time in the third-place match. In visible pain from a long day on the courts, he went to some experienced tricks — and a few gulps of Pedialyte — to dispatch Olathe North’s Noah Crist 1-6, 6-2, 6-2. “I haven’t really reverted back to my old style of play of just hitting high and heavies but it really worked wonders since I couldn’t move very well,” Abromeit said. After the loss to Abromeit, Nickel won his next two matches to earn fifth place. In Nickel’s last match, it was another three-set thriller and they were the last players on the court for the last hour. Fighting through a blister on his right middle finger, which he used to hold his racket, and a pulled quad, Nickel outlasted Olathe East’s Carson Fitzgerald for a 4-6, 7-6 (7), 6-1 victory.

Tinsley has left the park hitless just twice in 26 games. He has recorded 16 multi-hit games during that stretch and has had two or more hits in exactly half of Kansas’ 48 games this season. “We’ve had some really good players here,” said KU coach Ritch Price. “And he’s swinging the bat, right now, as well as anybody I’ve coached in my 37 years in the game.” It wasn’t always that way for KU’s 2014 rookie of the year. In fact, after hitting .338 as a sophomore, Tinsley struggled to open the season and went back to the cages looking for answers. “It was really just getting down to the basics,” Tinsley said. “Just bringing my approach back to what it should be and it’s made it a lot easier. Ever since then it’s just been pedal to the metal.” Two weeks ago, senior second baseman Colby Wright matter-of-factly mentioned after one KU game that “Michael Tinsley is going to do what Michael Tinsley does,” and other teammates have regularly marveled at the KU catcher’s consistent production. Price is right there with them.

KU vaulter Meyer claims crown Manhattan — Kansas University junior Nick Meyer became the 10th Jayhawk in school history to break the 18-foot barrier in the pole vault while winning the event Saturday at the Ward Haylett Invitational. “The reason he’s such a good hitter and the reason he’s hitting .400 is he uses the whole field,” Price said of his 2015 second-team all-conference hitter. Price continued by sharing a story about KU’s series at Texas this season, when the Longhorns trotted out starting pitchers who hit 9497 mph on the radar gun both Friday night and again on Saturday. “He had three hits Friday, three hits Saturday and two hits Sunday,” Price recalled. “He’s as good a fastball hitter as I’ve ever coached.” That skill, along with his continued growth and development, has made Tinsley an intriguing prospect during his first season of draft eligibility since high school. The weight of knowing that scouts were watching a little closer this season initially wore on him and was something Price noticed when the Jayhawks played Stanford in Palo Alto, Calif., back in midMarch. Tinsley was pressing, his family was buzzing and the combination of the two led to a stressful series. “I actually talked to Michael after that series and he said that everybody who was calling him was asking him about the draft and things like that,”

Meyer went 18-01⁄2, and was one of six KU athletes to claim victories. Other KU winners: Jaime Wilson in the men’s 200 (21.58), Tre Daniels in the men’s 400 (46.70), Ezekiel Welch in the men’s triple jump (47-11), Nicolai Ceban in the men’s discus (184-8) and Taryn Tempel in the women’s triple jump. Next for the Jayhawks is the Big 12 Outdoor on May 13-15 in Fort Worth, Texas.

Baker takes title Des Moines, Iowa — Baker University’s men’s track team won its sixth straight Heart of America Athletic Conference title Saturday. Baker coach Ryan Pitts was named league coach of the year, Dayshawn Berndt was men’s athlete of the year, and Gloria Mares was women’s athlete of the year. Price said. “I just talked to him about playing. If you play, the draft takes care of itself. One other thing I did was I called up his dad, Randy, who’s as cool of a dude as you’ll ever meet and I asked him to send an email or a text to Michael’s family that basically said, ‘If you want to call Michael and pump him up and support him, go ahead. But there can be no more discussion about the draft.’ And Randy did that. Randy and his family handled it right and that’s allowed Michael to handle it right.” With just eight guaranteed games remaining in his junior season and the Jayhawks fighting for their life to earn that eighth and final spot in the Big 12 Championship in Oklahoma City, Tinsley and Price both know they need their leading hitter to stay hot. If he does that, Tinsley will finish as the first Jayhawk since Joe DeMarco in 1997 to hit .400 in a season and just the seventh since 1971. The Jayhawks (19-281 overall, 5-11 Big 12) and Red Raiders (36-13, 16-4) will play the series finale at 10 a.m. today.

MAJOR-LEAGUE ROUNDUP

Oakland, Baltimore split doubleheader The Associated Press

American League Athletics 8, Orioles 4 Baltimore — Chris Davis homered, Ubaldo Jimenez pitched eight effective innings and Baltimore beat Oakland on Saturday night for a doubleheader split. Marcus Semien homered and drove in three runs in the opener, and the Athletics broke a four-game skid. The day-night doubleheader was scheduled after rain washed out the first game of the series Friday night. In the nightcap, Davis’ eighth homer capped a four-run third inning against Jesse Hahn (1-1). It also snapped an 0-for16 skid.

Kennedy, Morales lead Royals, 7-0 Cleveland (ap) — Ian Kennedy and Kendrys Morales returned the Kansas City Royals to their winning formula Saturday. Kennedy pitched fourhit ball for seven innings, Morales hit a three-run homer and drove in four runs, and Kansas City blanked the Cleveland Indians 7-0. “That’s just what the doctor ordered,” Royals manager Ned Yost said. “A really good pitching performance by Ian. Kendrys took some pressure off him and he took it from there.” Kennedy (4-2) worked out of a bases-loaded jam in the sixth and retired 14 in a row at one point. He struck out six while helping end Cleveland’s fourgame winning streak. “That’s a good lineup,” Kennedy said. “I had to constantly throw everything for strikes and mix it up.” Morales’ homer in the first provided an early boost for Kansas City’s struggling offense. He added an RBI single in the eighth. Kansas City’s win came at an opportune time. The Royals had lost eight of 10 and announced before the game that third baseman Mike Moustakas was put on the 15-day disabled list with a fractured left thumb. The World Series champions had scored 21 runs and been shut out three times in 10 games going into Saturday, but that problem was quickly resolved. Lorenzo Cain and Eric Hosmer singled with one out before Morales’ drive off Cody Anderson landed deep in the right field seats. Morales’ home run was his third of the season and first since April 11.

Derby CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1C

“His run was awesome,” Reddam said. “Obviously, we were going to take it to ’em. I love the way that we fired out of there and he sat behind Danzing Candy. This horse, he’s really something. We’re just really lucky to be a part of that.” Nyquist stayed just off the lead and Gutierrez kept him in the clear, steering him to the outside on the final turn. Nyquist and Gun Runner overtook tiring leader Danzing Candy at the top of the stretch. “I thought I had it for a minute,” said Florent Geroux, aboard Gun Runner. “He started pricking his ears back and forth at the top of the stretch.” But Gun Runner was only in front briefly before Nyquist showed a strong finishing kick. He put away his closest rival and sped to the finish line, with Exaggerator closing but never threatening after coming from well back. Exaggerator fell to 0-4 against Nyquist, including two runner-up fin-

ishes under the brother team of trainer Keith and jockey Kent Desormeaux. “What a horse,” marveled Keith Desormeaux. “I can’t respect that horse enough.” All week long, optimism had filled the air in O’Neill’s barn. The humans took their cues from the horse. Nyquist settled right in, showing an obvious liking for his surroundings. “You just felt there was no way you could be nervous because you just felt like you were going in the gym with Kobe Bryant,” O’Neill said. “You just knew he was going to figure out a way to pull it out at the end and he did. Mario gets a lot of credit, too. What a ride, what a ride.” Nyquist began Derby day with a visit from the Stanley Cup, which he playfully took a nibble at. Fitting, since he’s named for Detroit Red Wings player Gustav Nyquist. Reddam is a fan of the NHL team and O’Neill was born in Michigan. The bay colt is from the first crop of sire Uncle Mo, who never got the chance to run in the Derby after being the early favorite for the 2011 race.

WEST SIDE FOLK FOUNDER AND ARTISTIC DIRECTOR BOB MCWILLIAMS IS PICTURED in his office at the Kansas Public Radio studios. The concert series is ending its 20-plus year run this month.

THAT’S ALL, FOLKS West Side Folk concert series ending decades-long run

By Joanna Hlavacek

nstitutions like West Side Folk, the popular Lawrence concert series set to end its run after 20-plus years later this month, don’t become institutions overnight.

Twitter: @HlavacekJoanna Since its unofficial launch in 1994, West Side Folk has hosted hundreds of concerts, bringing nationally recognized folk, bluegrass and old-time musicians such as Greg Brown, Tim O’Brien, Dougie MacLean,

Martin Sexton and Lucy Kaplansky to Lawrence stages. Still, Bob McWilliams, the radio personality who founded West Side Folk with his wife — and with little experience in the world of concert bookings and promotions — more than two decades ago, maintains that it all “just happened.” “Well, there’s a whole series

of totally random events that kind of seemed to move toward this,” begins McWilliams, admittedly a little frazzled after another hectic day at Kansas Public Radio. There, the sixtysomething hosts “Jazz in the Night” and “Trail Mix,” a show much in the same vein as his beloved concert

series (folk, bluegrass, Americana, alternative country and the like). When he’s not in the studio, McWilliams — a Harvard-educated attorney who left law for radio years ago — teaches American history at Johnson County Community College. Please see FOLK, page 3D

LEFT: DAR WILLIAMS WAS THE HEADLINER of the inaugural West Side Folk concert on Sept. 19, 1995. Before the actual concert at West Side Presbyterian Church, Williams played a show for an audience of about 40 people at the home of West Side Folk’s founder, Bob McWilliams.

RIGHT: PETE AND MAURA KENNEDY played a West Side Folk concert on March 24, 1996. The series has welcomed hundreds of folk, bluegrass and Americana musicians over its 20-plus years. Contributed Photos

Reboots, sequels pad summer movie lineup By Jake Coyle

Summer films

Associated Press

New York — Hollywood’s summer, which kicked off with the fittingly combative “Captain America: Civil War,” will be a season of struggle: for box office, for originality and for opportunity. More than ever, the big tent of summer moviegoing is held up by a forest of tentpoles stretching from May to August. The swelling size of the summer movie has turned the season into a game of survival. The possibility of bombing lurks as an ever-present threat, testosterone often dominates in front of and behind the camera, and few non-sequel, nonreboot films dare to compete. Box office and stress levels run high in equal measure. “It’s a different landscape than 2002 when the first ‘Bourne’ movie came out,” says Matt Damon, who returns to the franchise in Paul Greengrass’ “Jason Bourne” (July 29). “It’s like a high-stakes poker game that I don’t want to be in. The swings are just so brutal. Ben (Affleck) just opened ‘Batman v Superman’ a few weeks ago. Everyone around him and in his life was nervous about it. You feel less a sense of exultation when they do well and more a sense of relief because the bets are so big now.” This season is particularly risk-averse. Out of the 33 films coming from the major studios, only 12 aren’t a sequel, reboot or based on an already popular property, such as a video game or best-seller. One of these is Jodie Foster’s “Money Monster” (May 13), a thriller about a brash financial news pundit taken hostage on the air, starring George Clooney and Julia Roberts. Foster’s film is doubly rare. She’s one of only two female filmmakers helming major studio releases this summer. Though equality remains a yearround issue for the movie business, the constricted summer months can reveal Hollywood at its most retrograde. “It’s interesting to me that the studio system still sees women

Hollywood’s 2015 summer was its second biggest ever, with nearly $4.8 billion spent at the box office. Here are some of the films hoping to match that total:

FROM LEFT, ANTHONY MACKIE, PAUL RUDD, JEREMY RENNER, CHRIS EVANS, ELIZABETH OLSEN AND SEBASTIAN STAN appear in a scene from “Captain America: Civil War,” now in theaters. as a risk,” says Foster, who wonders if women ultimately even want to inherit some of the kinds of films that dominate the summer. “I think that more women in the film business will look slightly different than it’s looked in the past for men.” Paul Feig’s “Ghostbusters” reboot (July 15) was met by a backlash from some corners of the Internet that took offense to a new, female-led version starring four of the funniest comedic performers around: Melissa McCarthy, Kristin Wiig, Kate McKinnon and Leslie Jones. With that lineup, Feig relishes heading into “the big guns of summer.” “To put out a movie like this in the heart of tentpole season when it’s all these big movies out there, I find it very exciting because a lot of these movies are very male driven, even though they have some great female characters in them,” Feig says. This summer includes a number of anticipated sequels (“Finding Dory,” “Star Trek Beyond,” “Alice Through the Looking Glass”), the expected superhero films (“Civil War,” “Suicide Squad,” “X-Men: Apocalypse”) and some less likely resurrections (“The Legend of Tarzan,” “Ben-Hur,” “Independence Day: Resurgence”). Recent history is clear: These will be among the summer’s biggest hits. Last summer (the second biggest ever with nearly $4.5 billion in box office), seven of the top 10 movies were re-

makes, sequels or came from a comic book. Ditto for four of the top five movies so far in 2016. Andy Samberg and his Lonely Island trio will be among the few to brave the sequel-strewn seas with something fresh: their celebrity flame-out parody “Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping” (June 3). Does he take any pride in being one of the few to push an original movie into summer? “Um, yeah, we’ll find out,” says Samberg, laughing. “It’s heavy duty. We were looking at the schedule and we were like: Holy crap. There’s stuff that’s coming out the week before and the week during us and the week after us, and they’re all really big movies.” Family audiences will be especially sought after by the likes of “Ice Age: Collision Course” and “Pete’s Dragon.” One much smaller film, “Life, Animated” (July 8), will hope to sway moviegoers from the blockbusters while simultaneously reminding them of the power of movies. The documentary, directed by Roger Ross Williams, is about an autistic young man, Owen Suskind, who found language through his love of Disney animated classics. “In the summer this is an alternative where families can go together and see it and hopefully be inspired and uplifted,” Williams said. To be uplifted rather than pummeled at summer movie theaters would indeed be almost radical change of pace.

Folk

There was a time, maybe 15 years ago, that West Side Folk might have staged 25 shows a year instead of the “8 or 9” that has become the norm recently. McWilliams, board members and West Side Folk’s many, many volunteers “did fine,” but ended up tapering back a bit. “Of course, we’re completely tapering back now,” McWilliams says, his words accented by a self-aware chuckle.

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1D

Lately, it’s all become a bit much, which is why he’s decided to end West Side Folk after all these years. “It just seemed like the right time,” McWilliams told the Journal-World last month. He’d been advised to cut down on stress because of a few “minor health issues,” but reassures fans that he’s OK. As founder and artistic director, McWilliams has handled the artist bookings — and all that comes with that responsibility, which is a lot — since 1994, when he and his wife, Trish, hosted their first house concert for an obscure Australian singersongwriter who was passing through town and needed a venue. Their split-level home was “tiny,” the kind of place a graduate student might rent, but the basement was roomy enough for the eight people who showed up. McWilliams was hooked. A few months later, a thenunknown (at least outside of the East Coast folk circuit) singer-songwriter named Dar Williams played to an audience of 40 at the McWilliams home and later raved about the experience to her musician friends. West Side Folk, as it would soon be known, took off. Williams’ encore concert, which happened to coincide with her ascent into the national folk consciousness, would be the series’ first. Kelley Hunt has performed for crowds of thousands at festival stages across the world. She’s also appeared on NPR’s “A Prairie Home Companion” six times, which is, presumably, a pretty big deal to the type of folks who frequent West Side Folk concerts. But the Lawrence-based blues musician always made time for her friend McWilliams over the years, performing in a handful of his concerts and enjoying quite a few as an

IRISH SINGER AOIFE CLANCY, LEFT, plays a West Side Folk concert at Ecumenical Campus Ministries, 1204 Oread Ave., on March 13, 2001. The concert series, which unofficially began in 1994, will conclude May 20 with a performance from singer-songwriter Cheryl Wheeler. audience member. “The numbers don’t matter. I think it has to do with the receptivity of the crowd and the focus on the music,” she says of West Side Folk’s intimate shows. “If people are there to listen, really listen, to what’s going on, it’s almost immaterial.” “You’re feel like you’re in on something very, very special,” Hunt adds. “And it’s been that way for years with West Side Folk.”

The series has mostly stuck to small or nontraditional venues throughout its run, starting out at West Side Presbyterian Church (hence the name) before moving on to other houses of worship (Unity Church of Lawrence had become sort of a de facto home base in recent years) in addition to places like the Cider Gallery and the Lied Center Pavilion, which seats about 200 and hosts West Side Folk’s “somewhat larger shows,” McWilliams says. “What I’m happy about is the fact that we started doing this with smaller singer-songwriters and bands — artists that were not going to fill big rooms had a place to play, and we could build them up,” he explains, referring to musicians like Dar Williams, who would later go on to play Lib-

erty Hall (“I had no sense of ownership — if Dar Williams is playing in Lawrence, I’m happy,” McWilliams says) and eventually develop a greater fan base in the Midwest. “But there was nothing as far as the kind of music we’ve presented happening really anywhere in the area.” Since West Side Folk’s arrival on the scene, similar projects have begun to crop up across northeast Kansas. Manhattan residents who attended the McWilliams’ house concerts launched a concert series at the Manhattan Arts Center. Topeka’s Last Minute Folk and Lenexa’s Green Guitar Folk are more recent additions. Even Paola has “stuff going on” these days, McWilliams says.

Trish McWilliams, who helped Bob launch the concert series in 1994, relocated to Madison, Wis., for a pharmaceutical research job soon after the couple received a Phoenix Award, the annual honor that recognizes contributions to the Lawrence arts community, in 2006. They’re separated now, says McWilliams, but still maintain a good relationship, though Trish isn’t involved with West Side Folk anymore. Emily Stangl, the McWilliamses’ daughter, moved away about a year later. It was the end, too, of her work with the concert series, which had really ended after West Side Folk moved out of her parents’ basement and started picking up more volunteers. But in the early years, Stangl, who now lives in Virginia with her husband and 2-year-old daughter, played a central role. At 32, she looks back wistfully on childhood memories of cutting tickets at Kinko’s with her father and selling snacks during concert intermissions. “I’m sure I took a lot of it for granted,” she says of the experience “For me, the Lawrence music scene was West Side Folk, because that was the kind of music I was interested in. It’s the music I grew up with and the music I still love.” Stangl didn’t really grasp the significance of her parents’ pet project — the one that she would enjoy, disinterestedly, as a preteen sitting atop the basement stairs during early concerts — until years later. In college, she’d hear friends gush about Dar Williams’ mu-

| 3D

sic, for example, and realize, “I totally know her — she’s been in my house and we went out to Teller’s after the concert.” Years after hosting up-andcoming musicians at her parents’ house (most stayed with the McWilliams instead of hotels), Stangl would hear the same artists on the radio at a coffee shop or during a shift at Trader Joe’s. Greg Greenway, whom she’d met through West Side Folk, later sung at her wedding. lll

Many of these people are still friends of the family. The relationships forged over the last two decades have meant a lot to McWilliams, who attributes the concert series’ longevity at least partially to the trust and mutual respect he’s worked to develop with artists and the agents who represent them. At last month’s penultimate West Side Folk concert, Ellis Paul, one of the series’ frequent returning artists, ended his performance with an impromptu song dedicated to McWilliams lovingly titled “Radio Bob.” “He’s singing this and I’m just trying to not have the tears. It kind of hit, and I did have the tears,” recalls McWilliams, who hopes to keep it together for the Cheryl Wheeler concert on May 20, West Side Folk’s last. “It was tough on the Ellis Paul show, but I don’t think Cheryl will ambush me like that.” McWilliams says he’d love to help stage house concerts in the future, if anyone’s interested, and he’s already in talks with other people — McWilliams isn’t about to spearhead another series of West Side Folk’s scale all by himself — regarding new projects. “We planted the seeds in the area for this kind of stuff to happen, and I think that’s good,” he says. “And I’m confident that these kinds of artists will keep coming back to Lawrence.” — Features reporter Joanna Hlavacek can be reached at jhlavacek@ljworld.com and 832-6388.

Highbrow ‘Good Wife’ wraps up “The Good Wife” (8 p.m., CBS, TV-14) wraps up tonight. This serious, well-acted, wellcast and even better guest-cast series was CBS’ one link to prestige television. With the exception of “The Big Bang Theory,” what other CBS series earned Emmy consideration outside of technical categories? CBS president Leslie Moonves has long said he’d prefer strong ratings to awards. But recognition is nice. Without “The Good Wife,” CBS consists of aging sitcoms (“Big Bang”), bad sitcoms (“Life in Pieces”), ancient reality shows (“Survivor,” “The Amazing Race”), formulaic procedurals (three “NCIS” shows, two “Criminal Minds,” the ludicrous “Scorpion” and “Person of Interest”), movie remakes (“Rush Hour” and “Limitless”), rehashes of well-known characters (“Elementary” and “Supergirl”) and “48 Hours.” With “The Good Wife” gone, “Madam Secretary” is about as grown-up and “classy” as CBS gets. CBS is not alone. Without ratings pressures, it’s much easier for Netflix or HBO to stand behind “prestige” projects. But FX still runs advertising and it has had three of the best, smartest and most critically acclaimed series this year: “The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story,” “Fargo” and “The Americans.” The disconnect between critical acclaim and network programming has never been more acute. On a list of the best-reviewed series of 2016 by the critical aggregator Metacritic.com, only two network series (ABC’s “American Crime” and NBC’s “The Carmichael Show”) crack the top 20 at no. 9 and no. 16, respectively. There are only five network projects in the top 50. It’s easy to dismiss effete, cliquey critics, but one can’t escape the feeling that the networks, particularly CBS, have doubled down on mediocrity. There’s no other explanation for the mind-numbing banality of the dialogue on “NCIS: New Orleans.” Want to know Metacritic’s worst-reviewed series of 2016? No surprise, it’s “Criminal Minds: Beyond Borders.” You don’t have to be a snob to find that show repulsive. Tonight’s other highlights

Elizabeth learns she may be the victim of political hardball on “Madam Secretary” (7 p.m., CBS, TV-14).

A glance back at the top 10 moments on “Little Big Shots” (7 p.m., NBC, TV-G).

Holmes and Watson uncover an international plot against Morland on “Elementary” (9 p.m., CBS, TV-14).

If you knew someone was thirsting for a drop of water sweet Would you be so slow to bring it? Would you step with laggard feet? There are tender hearts all round us who are thirsting for our love; Why withhold from them what nature makes them crave all else above? I won’t need your kind caresses when the grass grows o’er my face; I won’t crave your love or kisses in my last low resting place. So, then, if you love me any, if it’s but a little bit, Let me know it now while living; I can own and treasure it. Dear Readers: Here is one more that appeared in our column several years back, but we know it will be appreciated by many: Dear God: How does a

daughter begin to thank her mother for life itself? For the love, patience and just plain hard work that go into raising a child? For waiting for the day when a daughter realizes how wise her mother really is? How does a grown woman thank a mother for continuing to mother? For not saying, ‘’I told you so,’’ when she could have uttered those words dozens of times? For being herself — loving, thoughtful, patient and forgiving? I don’t know how, dear God, except to ask you to bless her as richly as she deserves — and to help me live up to the example she has set.

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS

For Sunday, May 8: This year your imagination often gets triggered when hanging out with a specific friend or set of friends. You can go off on some wild quests, some of which will be delightful, while others could be less than successful. If you are single, you seem more accepting of a relationship with a potential sweetie. If you are attached, you could find an innate possessiveness emerging from you about your significant other. The stars show the kind of day you’ll have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult Aries (March 21-April 19) Others find you to be inspirational in the morning. Take a nap if need be. Tonight: Don’t let what you can’t do become an issue. Taurus (April 20-May 20) At some point in the day, you probably will need to decline someone’s request. Tonight: Stay on a conservative path. Gemini (May 21-June 20) You could be in a position where you don’t feel comfortable with a loved one’s negativity. Tonight: Whatever makes you smile. Cancer (June 21-July 22) You could be exhausted by a situation that surrounds your personal life. Tonight: As late as need be. Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) A carefree environment

only adds to the celebratory tone of the moment. Tonight: Don’t rush. Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You will prefer having a carefree day without interruptions. Tonight: Turn the night into something special. Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Step back and take this opportunity to make the most of an offer. Tonight: Try something exotic. Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Someone you view as being quite close to you might push some buttons. Tonight: At home. Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You might be slightly more provocative than you realize. You can push others only so much. Tonight: Defer to someone else. Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) By doing this, you will recharge your batteries through rest and a refreshed mental focus. Tonight: Ready for tomorrow! Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Your attention and happiness seems to revolve around a child or loved one. Tonight: Be carefree. Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) Tension builds around a partner or a new special person. You want this bond to work out. Tonight: Make it early.
