Kansas University alumna and School of Business Dean Neeli Bendapudi will be KU’s next provost and executive vice chancellor.

The university announced Bendapudi Friday that Bendapudi had been selected for the job.

“A true Jayhawk, her enthusiasm for KU, her creativity and her academic and leadership

experience will help us to elevate our stature as a national research university,” Chancellor Bernadette Gray-Little said in a statement.

Bendapudi is known for being high-energy and a passionate supporter of KU. As business dean, her most publicly visible accomplishment has been leading the initiative to plan and raise money to build Capitol Federal Hall — at $70.5 million, the newly completed facility is the university’s most expensive privately funded academic building to date.

Originally from India, Bendapudi followed in her father’s footsteps to attend KU, earning her doctorate here in 1994.

Affidavit: Caregiver beat, confined roommates with mental disabilities

By Conrad Swanson Twitter: @Conrad_Swanson

Two mentally challenged men living together in Lawrence were beaten, confined and forced to fight each other over two months by

a professional caregiver assigned to their home, according to recently released court documents.

Brooke Tiara Shinn, 20, of Topeka, was arrested April 26 in connection with the case. She faces two felony counts of

mistreatment of a dependent adult, one felony count of aggravated battery and one misdemeanor count of criminal restraint.

Throughout 2015, Shinn was one of two ResCare caregivers responsible

for looking after the two men living in a home in the 2700 block of Crestline Drive, according to an arrest affidavit filed in Douglas County District Court. Shinn would care

Besides serving as KU business dean since 2011, she is an H.D. Price Professor of Business at KU. “I am thrilled for the opportunity to serve my alma mater in a new capacity and look forward to working with people across campus to make it an even better place for our students, our faculty and our staff to learn and to work,” Bendapudi said in a statement from KU. “This is a truly wonderful place that means so much to me and my family, and this opportunity is a dream come true for me.”

Prior to becoming KU’s

business dean, Bendapudi was at The Ohio State University’s Fisher College of Business, where she started as assistant professor in 1996 and earned the rank of professor in 2008. Previously she was an assistant professor of marketing at Texas A&M University.

In the private sector, Bendapudi worked as executive vice president and chief customer officer of Huntington National Bank. According to KU, she also has consulted for dozens of the world’s largest companies, including Procter & Gamble, Deloitte & Touche and Cessna.

near those who approach.

Some tenants at the complex have been requesting the nests be removed; however, whether to remove the nests is not a matter of preference.

A resident at the complex notified wildlife officials after she said the complex’s maintenance staff recently removed about 20 nests that were either complete or nearly completed.

“They spent the first part of their reproductive season working really hard on building these nests and these people just came over, just knocked them down with sticks,” said Sarah Archer, who has been a resident at the complex for four years.

As migratory birds, state and federal laws protect the swallows’ nests, and Archer contacted wildlife officials with her concerns about the nest removals this week. Archer said the swallows have been building their nests in the covered breezeways between apartments for years, and she thinks the nests should be left to allow the birds to raise their young.

“They are migratory; they come and they go,” Archer said. “They’re only here for about eight weeks.”

Under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act, it is illegal to remove the active nests of certain migratory birds. An active nest is defined as one occupied by either eggs or baby birds. Following Archer’s complaint about nest removals, management with the apartment complex has been in contact with state and federal wildlife officials.

Management with the complex said they are working to follow the law and deal with other concerns the nests bring.

Though some residents have requested that nests near their apartments be removed, management’s main concern is that some nests are being built

on top of external sprinkler heads, said Bryan Cargill, assistant property manager for the complex.

Cargill said any nests built on the sprinklers create a safety hazard.

“We’ve been trying to find a solution,” Cargill said. “... That’s the only time that we’re taking them down, is if they’re on the sprinkler heads.”

Cargill said that they are looking into ways to prevent the nests from being built in the future.

Fire codes require that sprinkler heads be free of any obstruction, and the nests were checked for eggs or hatchlings before they were removed, according to a statement from an attorney representing the apartment complex.

Barn swallows aren’t alone in their protection under the law. A long list of migratory birds are protected, including dozens of species that move through the area, such as eagles, owls, blackbirds, crows and finches. Violation of the migratory bird act is a misdemeanor offense punishable by a fine of up to $15,000 and/or as much as six months in prison.

For those who don’t want nests on their home or building, there are some options besides knocking them down. However, wildlife officials said prevention methods aren’t always successful.

“If they are underneath an eave or something that you can’t prevent them from getting to, it can be difficult,” said Mike Miller, information section chief for the Kansas Department of Wildlife.

Miller said one course of action to prevent nests from being built is mounting wire mesh over locations that birds favor or using other visual deterrents such as owl decoys or flash tape. And for those who just want the nest farther from their building or home, there is another option, he said.

“You can provide a nesting box or platform near the home, which gives them an alternative,” Miller said.

for the men on the weekends while the second caregiver kept watch during the week.

ResCare is a national company and the largest private, in-home service provider for the disabled, said Kristen Trenamen, the company’s director of communications. The company has more than 900 employees in Kansas and 50,000 across the country.

Trenamen would not say how long Shinn worked for ResCare, but did say Shinn is no longer employed with the company.

On June 3, 2015, police responded to the Kansas De- Shinn partment for Children and Families, DCF, in Lawrence for a report of abuse, the affidavit says. A sister of one of the men and the weekday caregiver were both passing information to the organization alleging physical abuse and mismanagement of the mens’ money.

An arrest affidavit is a document filed by police justifying a specific arrest. Any allegations within affidavits must still be proven in court, and Shinn is awaiting a preliminary hearing where she will be able to respond to the charges.

The sister told DCF her brother’s behavior was changing and he was, at one point, afraid to return to his home, the affidavit says. The woman reported Shinn gave her brother two black eyes and shoved him to the ground.

According to the affidavit, some of the mens’ money — allotted for activities — was being used for food and supplies instead, noting that the two men were sharing basic toiletries such as a razor.

The alleged abuses took place between Jan. 1 and Feb. 28, 2015, according to a criminal complaint filed in Douglas County District Court.

At times, Shinn would lock both men in their rooms for the entire weekend, leaving them without food, medication or anything else, the affidavit says. The report also mentions mismanagement of the house on ResCare’s behalf, noting “the house is always running out of food” so the men “go without.”

Both men suffered cuts to the face and black eyes, the affidavit says.

After the DCF report was submitted, police went to the home to speak to the two men, the affidavit says.

The first man denied being abused by Shinn but said she would beat the other man and that “it was not nice for her to hit,” the affidavit says.

The second man — who was initially afraid to speak with police — said both he and the first man were abused, the affidavit says. He detailed one incident where he saw Shinn force the other man to put his nose on a hot stove coil and another where she beat him with a fly swatter, according to the documents. On other occasions she would beat the two men with her fists, he said.

Police then spoke with the second caregiver, who said she was aware of Shinn’s activities because the two would communicate about what happened during their shifts, the affidavit says.

The caregiver gave pictures, videos and messages to DCF and to the sister of one of the men, documenting instances of abuse.

The caregiver told police that Shinn said once during an argument she beat one of the men so badly she “got scared and freaked out when she noticed all the blood on the kitchen floor,” the affidavit says. Shinn then told the caregiver she would falsify an incident report, saying the man fell outside while he was smoking a cigarette, the caregiver alleged.

When asked about Shinn possibly filing false reports, Trenamen said she would not comment on the specific incident, citing pending litigation. is a lure; 2) Millennials want work-life balance and value things such as low commute times and green lifestyles; 3) Neighborhood diversity is important, including racial and ethnic diversity and communities that have a reputation for tolerance.

KANSAS UNIVERSITY MEN’S BASKETBALL COACH BILL SELF GETS HIS FIRST GLIMPSE of the newly installed rules of “Basket Ball” on Friday at the DeBruce Center.

Naismith’s rules of ‘Basket Ball’ installed

K

ansas University’s DeBruce Center is now truly complete: James Naismith’s original rules of “Basket Ball” — the high-profile acquisition for which the building was constructed — are installed and on display.

The building opened to the public a few weeks ago and the rules were put in place Friday morning, in a flurry of activity that involved removing and reinstalling a wall panel, security system verification and humidity and temperature checks in the display case, said Curtis Marsh, director of the DeBruce Center.

“We had a pretty intense morning,” he said.

Most of the modern, open-concept, glasswalled DeBruce Center is flooded with natural light. But the Rules Gallery — the passageway

Heard on the Hill

— is darkened by design to protect the historic document.

The two-page, handwritten rules of “Basket Ball” are displayed in a glass wall case along with a small portrait of Naismith. At the press of a button next to the case, the light inside comes up slightly and the voice of Naismith sshepherd@ljworld.com himself begins to play.

It’s the only known between the DeBruce audio recording of Center’s atrium and Naismith, a 1939 radio Allen Fieldhouse where interview that was the rules are installed recently discovered by

In addition to the tinyby-comparison rules, the gallery features oversize wall displays about Naismith — the inventor of basketball, one of KU’s early basketball coaches and the university’s first athletics director — and legendary KU basketball coach Forrest “Phog” Allen, a contemporary of Naismith’s. There’s also backlit quotes, laser-cut into the steel walls, by other former KU basketball coaches and players.

Current KU basketball coach Bill Self walked up to get his first glimpse of the newly installed rules while I was there Friday morning.

RG Fiber to install gigabit Internet ‘backbone’ in Eudora

E

udora residents can look for RG Fiber to start installing the backbone of a system that will provide that community with gigabit Internet service within a few weeks. RG Fiber CEO Mike Bosch said everything is ready for the installation of the backbone along 12th Street and the east side of Elm Street.

Eudora residents can expect to see a steppedup marketing campaign soon, which will include door hangers, Bosch said.

Preparations have gone further than that. Bosch said the company has an engineering design in place to serve 100 percent of the residents of the community and grow. But that advanced preparation won’t mean instant service. Just how long it takes to “light up” customers depends on where they live in relation to existing fiber lines and the customer base in the area.

That connection process is now ongoing in Baldwin City. RG Fiber first lit up Baker University in October and started connecting other customers in December.

The first customers to be connected were those living near RG Fiber’s main fiber line to the community along Sixth Street in Baldwin City or near the Baldwin school district cable it is leasing, Bosch said. Service

Tinder reminds users to be ‘vigilant’ amid kidnapping report Staff Reports

Tinder says “people with bad intentions exist everywhere” and the online dating app is reminding users to be vigilant about safety amid allegations that a Lawrence man held a woman he met on Tinder against her will Allen and beat her.

Earlier this week, the Journal-World reported on an arrest affidavit that alleged 30-year-old Shane Allen

picked up the woman at her sorority house last month after meeting on the app. The affidavit said Allen brought her back to the sorority after he held her for six days and beat her.

Kansas GOP to select delegates, debate judicial retention

By Peter Hancock Twitter: @LJWpqhancock

Topeka — The Kansas Republican Party’s state committee will meet today to select 25 delegates for the Republican National Convention to be held in Cleveland in July.

But before they get to those elections, there may be heated debate over positions some state committee members want the party to take.

One of those is a resolution that calls on the party to oppose retaining four of the five Kansas Supreme Court justices who are up for retention this year, accusing them of, among other things, “substituting their personal views to override the

clear dictates of the law.”

The most recent “egregious example” of that, the resolution states, was the court’s 2014 decision overturning the death sentences of Jonathan and Reginald Carr, two brothers convicted in a heinous quadruple homicide that occurred in Wichita in December 2000.

The resolution specifically targets Chief Justice Lawton Nuss and Associate Justices Marla Luckert, Carol Beier and Dan Biles, each of whom voted in favor of vacating the death sentences.

The other justice up for retention this year, Caleb Stegall, of Lawrence, was appointed to the court

by Gov. Sam Brownback after the Carr brothers

decisions were made.

The resolution also makes vague references to the court’s 2005 school finance decision in which the court ordered the Legislature to appropriate hundreds of millions of dollars in additional base state aid to public schools.

It says the court “has conducted an unprecedented power-grab by violating the constitutional limits to the Judicial Power and usurping onto itself Legislative Power.”

It also singles out Beier for particular criticism by noting that she allowed her home to be used to host a political fundraiser for Democrat Paul Davis during the 2014 gubernatorial race.

Beier’s husband is a

teacher at Topeka High School who supported Davis. Beier herself was not present at the fundraiser.

Passage of the resolution would officially turn this year’s retention elections into partisan political battles, although the resolution accuses Democrats of already having done that.

During the 2014 gubernatorial race, Brownback personally called for not retaining the other two justices involved in the Carr brothers cases, Eric Rosen and Lee Johnson.

Both won their retention races anyway, but by unusually narrow margins of 53-47 percent.

Brownback has also called for a constitutional amendment to change the way Supreme Court

justices are chosen, but that measure failed to win a two-thirds majority in the Kansas House, and so was never considered in the Senate.

Clay Barker, executive director of the state party, said Friday that there may also be a debate over including opposition to the death penalty in the party’s platform. The platform is currently silent on that issue, but Barker acknowledged there is a rift among conservatives over the issue.

Last summer, the Kansas Federation of College Republicans, an official group within the state party, adopted its own resolution opposing the death penalty, arguing that capital punishment is inconsistent

with the party’s “pro-life” stance opposing abortion.

Meanwhile, the main business of the meeting will be the selection of 25 at-large delegates to the national convention.

Although Donald Trump is now the only candidate still in the race, and is now the presumptive nominee, the delegates are allocated based on the results of the state’s March 5 caucuses, in which Texas Sen. Ted Cruz beat Trump by more than a two-to-one margin.

Of the 25 delegates chosen, 13 will be committed to Cruz; six for Trump; and five for Ohio Gov. John Kasich.

New laws deal with pot penalties, abortion, tanning Rules Topeka (ap) — Kansas is lessening some of its penalties for marijuana possession, specifically prohibiting nurse midwives from performing abortions and strengthening its gun rights laws.

The new policies were included in bills that Republican Gov. Sam Brownback signed into law this week.

Brownback also signed a bill that will prohibit minors from using tanning salons and punishing their owners if kids do.

Significant bills signed

by Brownback this week:

will oversee the sale.

The measure also tightens up the rules for using bonds backed by sales tax revenues for major economic development projects.

The new law was part of efforts to keep the budget balanced because Brownback believes selling the Bioscience Authority’s assets will raise $25 million.

Lawmakers in 2004 viewed the authority’s creation as a major economic development initiative.

But Brownback and others thought the agency ultimately had only a mixed record. They also Bioscience Authority argued its activities could Kansas will be selling be better handled by prioff the assets of its Bio- vate companies. science Authority a dozen years after creating it Marijuana penalties The state’s lesser marito nurture emerging biojuana penalties will take technology companies.

Brownback signed a effect in July.

The new law, signed bill authorizing the sale into law Thursday dur- Friday by Brownback, ing a ceremony in Salina. reduces the penalty for marijuana He and legislative leaders first-time

possession, which can now result in up to a year in jail, to no more than six months.

The penalty for a second offense would be reduced from a low-level felony to a sentence of up to a year in jail. Subsequent offenses could result in 10 to 42 months in prison, which is the current punishment for a second possession offense.

The measure also increases prison time for burglarizing an occupied dwelling to a minimum of 38 months. Currently, the offense could result in at least 31 months in prison, or probation.

Anti-abortion measure Starting next year, nurse midwives will be specifically prohibited from performing abortions or administering abortion-inducing drugs.

The prohibition was part of legislation Brownback signed Friday that

rewrites laws regulating multiple health care professions.

The changes will allow nurse midwives to practice independently within a limited scope of care starting next year instead of requiring an agreement with a licensed physician. The changes also establish new rules for acupuncture.

The anti-abortion group Kansans for Life pushed for the language prohibiting midwives from terminating pregnancies.

Some legislators noted the scope of care that independent midwives would be allowed to provide was limited to services associated with normal, uncomplicated pregnancies and deliveries.

But Kansans for Life said the language still was broad enough that abortion providers could argue that it covered ending pregnancies.

No kids in tanning salons Teenagers in Kansas who want a tan will have to get it outdoors starting in July because of a bill signed Friday by Brownback.

Under the new law, salon owners can be fined up to $250 and face disciplinary action from the state Board of Cosmetology for allowing people younger than 18 to use tanning salons.

Supporters of the measure said it would protect young people from ultraviolet lights that can cause the deadliest form of skin cancer.

Critics argued the bill prevents doctors from prescribing tanning devices to treat seasonal affective disorder or eczema.

The National Conference of State Legislatures says more than a dozen other states also prohibit minors from using tanning devices.

“What makes it so cool is how simplistic it is,” Self said. “For those two pieces of paper to have such an impact in our sport is what makes it so special.”

KU alumnus David Booth and Suzanne Booth purchased the rules at auction in 2010 for $4.3 million, a sports memorabilia record according to Sotheby’s in New York City. The $21.7 million donor-funded DeBruce Center opened to the public April 25 and also features a cafeteria, gift shop and lounge space.

The DeBruce Center, 1647 Naismith Drive, has extended hours for commencement weekend. The building will be open from 6 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday and from noon to 5 p.m.

Dear Annie: I read the letter from ‘’The Family Mistake,’’ the 12-year-old boy whose nearest sibling is 29.

He hates his life, saying people assume he’s the grandchild, and his parents call him a ‘’mistake.’’ He said his parents are in their 50s.

My husband and I are in our 50s. We have three kids between the ages of 9 and 13.

No one has mistaken our children for our grandchildren. Also, a lot of our friends are in their mid or late 50s and they have kids the same age as ours.

There is nothing unusual about having children later in life.

I have five siblings and we have been loving and supportive throughout our lives.

We never bully or tease one another. It’s cruel to make fun of

On Lifetime, title doesn’t say it all Sometimes movie titles, like tabloid headlines, are basically the whole show. That’s hardly the case with the 2016 shocker “I Didn’t Kill My Sister” (7 p.m., Lifetime). Here a woman is accused of slaying a popular news anchor in the middle of a very nasty divorce. Is this a woman-in-peril thriller? A dark tale of media intrigue? Or a murder whodunit with suspects galore? Nicholle Tom and Sharon Taylor star.

Here, a busy urban professional (Fiona Gubelmann) returns to her ailing father and rural splendor only to discover that she hasn’t been smelling the roses, or other blooms. Basically the plot to every Hallmark romance ever made.

World can’t accept chemical weapons Washington — The Obama administration has another chance to enforce its botched “red line” against the use of chemical weapons in Syria, given new reports that President Bashar Assad’s regime has used nerve gas against extremist fighters and may be planning more such attacks.

Obama’s decision not to retaliate against Assad’s use of chemical weapons in 2013 has become an emblem for his larger foreign policy, which critics argue hasn’t been forceful enough in Syria and other places. Obama justified his restraint by citing the diplomatic agreement that was brokered by the U.S. and Russia to destroy Syria’s chemical arsenal. But new Israeli reports question whether Assad has complied.

The Israeli newspaper Haaretz, apparently relying on a government source, reported on May 2 that Assad’s forces used sarin gas in late April against Islamic State fighters after they attacked two Syrian air force bases east of Damascus.

Stockpiles of this deadly gas were supposed to have been removed from Syria in 2014.

Given the international silence, Israeli officials are said to fear that Assad will keep striking with the banned weapons.

“With the continuation of fighting in Syria, it is reasonable to assume that the regime won’t hesitate to use these weapons again, especially after already having done so ... without any reaction,” an Israeli source told me.

David Ignatius

“

Chemical weapons have become part of ‘the new normal’ in Syria, according to a report in February by the Syrian American Medical Society.”

The alleged use of sarin is another sign that Assad appears ready to breach any diplomatic efforts to de-escalate the war. In recent weeks, his forces, backed by Russia, have struck a hospital in Aleppo run

by Doctors Without Borders, a pediatric hospital there, and a U.S.-backed humanitarian group in Idlib called Syria Civil Defense.

Chemical weapons have become part of “the new normal” in Syria, according to a report in February by the Syrian American Medical Society.

The group said that in 2015, there were 69 chemical weapons attacks in Syria, mostly chlorine bombs dropped by Assad’s air force.

The Assad regime often justifies such attacks by saying it is bombing the Islamic State or

Jabhat al-Nusra, the al-Qaida affiliate in Syria. But these jihadists are intermingled with civilians and moderate opposition groups in ways that make the non-extremist groups targets, too. As Assad has pressed his campaign in Aleppo and elsewhere, the “cessation of hostilities” negotiated by the U.S. and Russia in February has frayed badly.

The possibility that Syria retains chemical weapons was noted recently by Ahmet Uzumcu, director-general of the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons.

“There are still questions. I am not able to say whether Syria has declared everything or whether Syria continues to possess some chemical weapons or some munitions,” he cautioned.

Uzumcu also noted “extremely worrying” signs that the Islamic State has used mustard gas in Syria and Iraq.

Obama administration officials are concerned about continued Syrian use of chemical weapons, but they see significant differences between the recent reported incidents and the size and scope of the 2013 attacks using sarin and VX, which are believed to have killed more than 1,400 Syrian civilians.

Diplomacy remains the administration’s focus in Syria — and the partnership with Russia seems to be expanding, rather than shrinking, despite its setbacks. To bolster the cease-fire, U.S. and Russian officials have been discussing the location of “protected” Syrian opposition

groups. Officials from the two countries are said to talk daily in Geneva and by telephone to Syria, arguing over which areas are legitimate extremist targets and which should be avoided.

This shared “domain awareness,” as one official describes it, illustrates the extent of quiet Russian-American cooperation.

But Syria shows the limits of this great-power diplomacy.

Russia can’t seem to control Assad, even when it attempts to do so. And the U.S. has been unable to force opposition fighters to disentangle themselves from Jabhat al-Nusra and the Islamic State. Assad, once seen as a mild-mannered ophthalmologist, has proved a headstrong, brutal leader who has spawned the equivalently vicious Islamic State.

Finally, there remains a gaping hole in the U.S. strategy for capturing the Islamic State’s strongholds in Raqqa and Manbij in eastern Syria. Washington wants this fight to be led by Sunni Arabs, but the only reliable fighters America has found are Syrian Kurds from the YPG militia — which, to complicate matters further, is viewed by Turkey (a NATO ally) as a terrorist group.

Who will bell this cat? Are Presidents Obama and Putin really ready to tolerate a situation where the use of chemical weapons is seen as “normal,” despite a Russian-American agreement that they should be banned?

Humans also part of nature YOUR TURN

By John Solbach

I never fail to read columns by Leonard Krishtalka, as they appear in the Journal-World. They are always insightful, intellectually honest and they tell us what we need to hear, not necessarily what we want to hear.

However, I do take exception to one of his statements, listed as fact in the May 5, 2016, “Your Turn” i.e., “That for the first time in the Earth’s 4.5-billion-year history, humans not nature (emphasis added) are the most powerful force transforming … life of the planet.” As the late economist, Kenneth Boulding pointed out in 1981, humans are not separate from but part of nature.

Airplanes and automobiles are no less natural than termite mounds or bird nests. Life on earth has always influenced climate, beginning Solbach with stromatolites more than 3 billion years ago. They happily lived in shallow seas taking in carbon dioxide and excreting a waste product that ultimately filled the oceans and the atmosphere and as that waste product was poisonous to them brought about their virtual extinction (a few exist today in Australasia). It is that waste product that made possible the Cambrian explosion, forest fires in California, megafauna.

Global warming is not new. If you drive down I-70 in road cuts, where you see limestone, you are driving through a period of global warming where you find sandstone and shale of global cooling.

We as the current dominant species are redepositing carbon sequestered for 300 million years back into the atmosphere. We know with scientific certainty, its warming effect on the planet. Stromatolites, the dominant life form for more than a billion years, certainly transformed the planet dramatically, as many intervening species did also. Most are

now extinct. A life form cannot exist in an environment that changes more rapidly than its ability to adapt.

The difference between warming periods in the past and currently is we are the first species to understand our impact on the thin envelope of life where we live and have the capacity to do something about it. Implying that humans are separate from nature might be an oversight, unless it is a bone thrown to what “creationists” believe (which we assume it was not).

In our democracy it is crucial that we make objective decisions. We should not choose leaders because of their beliefs. Belief requires no evidence. Belief is protected under our constitution, and there are no religious tests for public office, but it is important we understand the difference between what we believe and what we have evidence for. History is replete with examples of disastrous consequences when leaders who did not know that difference were put into positions of power.

Our country was founded upon the principle that we would make objective decisions. George Washington in his farewell address in March of 1797 admonished Congress to “promote as an object of primary importance institutions for the general diffusion of knowledge, for as government gives force to public opinion, it is essential that public opinion be enlightened.” As someone who has devoted his life to one of George Washington’s institutions for the general diffusion of knowledge for the purposes of enlightening, Krishtalka should not imply a separate “human” and “nature.” They are one in the same. Oh, and the stromatolite’s waste product? Oxygen.

I look forward to future columns

by Krishtalka. They are always important and they are always enlightening.

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for May 14, 1916: “Despite all that was done in banding the elm trees in Lawrence this spring, the elm pests are worse than they have been years for several years, and property owners all ago over town are alarmed about the fine elm IN 1916 trees on their lots. The ravages of the pests already indicate that the trees will be stripped bare of leaves before the summer is far advanced. Prof. J. M. Van der Vries appeared before the city commission this morning and asked that body to consider some action calculated to assist property owners in saving their trees. “ — Compiled by Sarah St. John

New rule would mean more OT for workers 5 million salaried employees could now be eligible Paul Davidson @Pdavidsonusat USA TODAY

Millions of additional Americans are expected to become eligible for overtime pay under a new rule to be released by the Labor Department as early as next week.

The Obama administration and worker advocates have portrayed the change as a linchpin of its efforts to raise U.S. wages that

have stagnated for years. Businesses, however, say the measure will saddle them with red tape and force many to effectively demote managers or find ways around the regulation.

Currently, management, administrative and professional employees earning more than $26,660 a year are exempt from receiving overtime pay when they put in more than 40 hours a week. The rule proposed by Labor last summer would raise that threshold to $50,440. However, law firms and worker advocacy groups say the final version lowers the proposed threshold slightly to $47,000.

Still, about 5 million salaried

workers are expected to be newly eligible for overtime. The rule also is expected to include a mechanism to raise the threshold annually.

“It represents a significant step forward in the effort to boost wages for working people,” says Ross Eisenbrey, vice president of the liberal Economic Policy Institute.

Many businesses will convert salaried workers to hourly employees and ask them to punch a clock and track their hours, according to the National Federation of Independent Business. Yet even those who remain on salaries will have to monitor their hours and get paid time and a half

Restaurant managers are expected to be among those affected by a new overtime rule for U.S. workers.

for logging more than 40.

“Entry-level management positions are going to disappear and those employees will fall back into hourly jobs,” NFIB president Juanita Duggan said.

A large number of small businesses are expected to instruct their employees to work no more than 40 hours a week because they can’t absorb the added costs, says Dan Bosch, NFIB’s senior manager of regulatory policy. To make up the productivity gap, some firms will likely hire parttime workers, he says. Others are expected to cut the base pay of affected employees to account for the extra money they’ll make in overtime.

“What we’re hearing from out of state is that the best dope around is Colorado dope.”

Tom Gorman, pot task force

Trevor Hughes @trevorhughes USA TODAY

DENVER If you can dream up a way to smuggle marijuana out of Colorado, chances are someone else has already tried it: Cars and trucks. Potato chip bags and jars of peanut butter. The U.S. mail.

Not even the sky is the limit: A pilot last year confessed he used his skydiving planes to deliver nearly a ton of pot to buyers in Texas and Minnesota, court records show.

Authorities say growers are using loopholes in Colorado’s legal cannabis system to produce marijuana destined for illegal export, tempted by the high prices that Colorado’s highgrade marijuana commands on the black market, including convenient and discreet marijuanainfused candy.

And with margins of as much as 300%, smugglers are willing to take big risks.

“What we’re hearing from out of state is that the best dope around is Colorado dope,” says

Tom Gorman, director of the Rocky Mountain High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area task force, which operates in Colorado, Utah and Wyoming. “It’s high quality, and then you have the edibles and the hash oil.”

The flow of high-quality marijuana out of Colorado has already prompted a lawsuit from the attorneys general in Nebraska and Oklahoma, who say their locals jails are being overwhelmed by smugglers getting caught with Colorado pot. The U.S. Supreme Court in March declined to hear that lawsuit, and officials in Nebraska and Oklahoma are considering their options.

That’s put Colorado authorities in the position of defending the state on the very issue its neighbors had griped about before it legalized marijuana: that it would foster more criminal activity. Legalization advocates argue that smuggling would stop if other states would simply change their laws to reflect the reality that marijuana is a widely used drug. v STORY CONTINUES ON 2B

Since Scalia’s death, court deadlocking Richard Wolf @richardjwolf USA TODAY

The death of Justice Antonin Scalia has left the Supreme Court divided down the middle on the death penalty at a time when its constitutionality is coming under increased scrutiny.

The justices deadlocked 4-4 late Thursday night over the scheduled execution of an Alabama prisoner who killed a police officer three decades ago. Without Scalia’s vote, they could not overrule a state court that had blocked the execution based on the inmate’s mental state.

The issue of intellectual disability may return to the court as early as Monday when the justices could decide whether to hear a case next fall challenging Texas courts’ standard for determining mental competency. The state leads the nation in executions with 537 since 1976, including six this year.

The Texas case also raises a more far-reaching issue: whether decades in solitary confinement awaiting execution violates the Constitution’s ban on cruel and unusual punishment.

Since Scalia’s death in February, the court has deadlocked four times, with more almost certainly to come. The most notable tie vote denied an anticipated victory to WASHINGTON

Italy’s super senior is the last person born in 1800s Matthew Diebel USA TODAY

The death of 116-year-old Susannah Mushatt Jones in New York City on Thursday leaves just one person on Earth who was alive in the 1800s.

Born about a month before 1900 began and when England’s Queen Victoria was still on the throne, Emma Morano is now the oldest living person. Incredibly, she still lives on her own in northern Italy.

On Friday, she was happy to hear the title had passed to her, one of her relatives told London’s

Daily Telegraph newspaper. “She was told this morning and she said ‘My word, I’m as old as the hills,’ but she was very pleased,” Rosi Santoni said.

Morano eats a raw egg each day, ever since a doctor’s recommendation when she was diagnosed with anemia at 20.

Morano was the first of eight children, all of whom have since died. One sister lived to be 102. In 1926, she married, and in 1937 her only child was born but died a few months later. In 1938, she separated from her husband, Giovanni Martinuzzi, but never divorced. Until 1954, she was a worker at a jute factory before

working in the kitchen of a boarding school. She retired at 75.

When asked about the secret of her longevity by the La Stampa newspaper in 2015, she first mentioned her daily glass of homemade brandy.

Italy is known for its centenarians, and gerontologists at the University of Milan are studying Morano.

“Emma seems to go against everything that could be considered the guidelines for correct nutrition,” her physician Carlo Bava says. “For years, she has eaten the same thing every day, not much vegetables or fruit. But she’s gotten this far.”

Emma Morano sits in her apartment in Verbania, Italy, on Friday next to a picture of her when she was young. The 116-year-old woman is the world's oldest person. Her secret: A brandy a day.

Omara Portuondo performs with the Buena Vista Social Club at the White House on Oct. 15.

“We’ll still be around for a little while, too,” says Portuondo, 85, the band’s female lead singer.

It’s adiós time: Buena Vista Social Club ends But the iconic Cuban band will live on in memories of its fans Alan Gomez @alangomez USA TODAY

Two decades after the debut of the Buena Vista Social Club, it’s still difficult to explain how a Cuban band of mostly elderly musicians playing songs from the 1920s and ’30s became an international sensation.

“On the first tour, my wife was the road manager, but she was also their nurse,” said Juan de Marcos González, a composer and singer in the group. “This one had to take his diabetes medication at 7, that one had to take his blood pressure medication at 8.”

Yet their album won a Grammy, racked up more than 12 million in sales and inspired an Academy Award-nominated documentary. It led to performances at Carnegie Hall, the White House and venues around the world.

“They were like Madonna,” González said. “Women would scream when those old guys came on stage. It was incredible.”

Now, after a historic run that reignited a fascination with Cuban music, dance and culture, the Buena Vista Social Club is preparing for its final act. Four of the original members will get together one more time this weekend, playing back-to-back shows in Havana’s Karl Marx Theatre to officially bid farewell.

“Buena Vista isn’t going to end,” Eliades Ochoa, 69, a guitarist and vocalist in the band, said Thursday. “The film remains.

The discs remain. And the memHAVANA

ories remain that Buena Vista has left in the hearts of people around the world.”

“And we’ll still be around for a little while, too,” chimed in Omara Portuondo, 85, the band’s female lead singer.

The band was conceived, oddly enough, by a couple of foreigners – American guitarist Ry Cooder and British music producer Nick Gold. The pair had collaborated on an album featuring African music but had long wanted to highlight traditional Cuban music that had been cast aside in communist Cuba.

“It’s that rhythm that draws people in. It makes you get up and dance and feel good.”

Mike Davison, music professor at the University of Richmond

In Havana, González quickly joined up and recruited the musicians who were the experts on a Cuban music style called son.

The slower feel of the music had largely faded into the history books in Cuba, with younger generations embracing salsa, rock and roll, rap and pop.

Miriam Escudero, director of the Esteban Salas Musical Heritage Cabinet of the Havana City Historian Office, said son was most popular in the eastern, rural provinces of Cuba in the early part of the 20th century. The sound developed from a blend of Spanish guitar music, African percussion rhythms and lyrical, romantic ballads.

Although the music wasn’t popular outside of Cuba, that sound and those songs endured on the island, passed down from one generation to the next. And that’s why, when the band got together in a dilapidated studio in Havana to cut the record, the songs came out easily.

“You go to Santiago de Cuba and you’ll hear 25 people who sing like Compay Segundo,” Escudero said, referring to a late singer in the band. “The problem is, nobody hears them.”

That changed in 1997 when the album debuted, striking a nerve that most Americans didn’t even know they had.

Mike Davison, a trumpeter from Wisconsin, said he was first introduced to Cuban music when he was studying at the Eastman School of Music in New York in 1976 and was invited to sit in on a salsa gig nearby.

Then 19, he easily accepted, confident he could hold his own even though he’d never heard of that music style. Then he looked over the sheet music. “I felt like I was on a boat and I was about ready to get seasick,” he said.

But he got through the set and came away fascinated by the sound, one that has a simple harmony but a painfully difficult rhythm to keep up with. He started visiting the island every year, throwing his trumpet in his backpack and sitting in with local bands. Davison said Buena Vista’s success was to introduce the rest of the U.S. to what he knew.

“It’s that rhythm that draws people in,” said Davison, now a music professor at the University of Richmond who uses the Buena Vista documentary in his classes. “People don’t even know what’s happening, but it makes you get up and dance and feel good.”

“These guys are on the wrong side of history,” said Mason Tvert of the national Marijuana Policy Project.

But marijuana remains illegal in every state surrounding Colorado, and law enforcement is looking for it. The sheriff in Deuel County, Neb., has an evidence room piled high with Colorado marijuana his deputies have confiscated from drivers crossing the border.

“A big decision a jurisdiction has to make is how much money they want to put into going after those who participate in the black market or the grey market,” said Beau Kilmer, the codirector of the RAND Drug Policy Research Center in Santa Monica, Calif. “It’s not a surprise this is an issue.”

Gorman’s task force says investigators in 2014 made 360 seizures of Colorado pot destined for other states, a nearly 600% increase in individual stops in a decade, seizing about 3,671 pounds in 2014. But those seizure reports are only from statewide agencies, not smaller police departments that also make seizures during traffic stops. Of the 360 seizures reported in 2014, 36 different states were identified as destinations, the most common being Kansas, Missouri, Illinois, Oklahoma and Florida.

While Colorado law makes growing and possessing small amounts of marijuana legal, it’s still illegal to grow massive quantities without specific state approval, and all sales are supposed to stay within the regulated marketplace. Last year, investigators arrested 32 people and seized more than two tons of marijuana and $10 million in cash — from a single marijuanasmuggling operation.

“Illegal drug dealers are simply hiding in plain sight, attempting to use the legalized market as a cover,” Colorado Attorney General Cynthia Coffman said.

There is confusion over the law as well. Cops in neighboring states say some people they catch with Colorado marijuana show a receipt to prove they bought it legally — apparently forgetting that Colorado law makes it illegal to take that pot across state borders.

In one unusual twist, a skydiving pilot admitted to flying at least 1,000 pounds of marijuana from Colorado to Minnesota.

The pilot told investigators the illegal grow operations he worked for were producing 100400 pounds of marijuana monthly and generated at least $12 million over three years, po-

lice said. A pound of high-grade Colorado marijuana selling legally in state for $2,000 can fetch $6,000 on the black market, investigators said.

“If you look at all the odds, if you’re going to grow marijuana, where are you going to grow it?

Colorado,” Gorman says.

Out-of-state growers assume that even if Colorado officials discover their illegal grows, they won’t face the same penalties they would in Florida, for example. That cuts down on the risk, which they further minimize by either mailing packages with fake return addresses, or hiring someone to drive it out in a rental car, Gorman says.

TREVOR HUGHES, USA TODAY

Marijuana seized from suspected smugglers sits in buckets and totes inside an evidence room at the Deuel County Sheriff's Office in Nebraska. Deputies there say they've seen a surge in Colorado marijuana flowing through their state.

The U.S. Mail, it turns out, is a particularly tempting vehicle for some drug traffickers. They grow or buy marijuana legally in Colorado, wrap it up in a variety of packages, slap some postage on it and hope no one looks or smells too carefully. Unfortunately for them, mailing marijuana is a federal crime, and often draws heavy penalties from federal prosecutors.

And postal inspectors are on the lookout.

“You’re not the brightest if you ship things through the mail,” said John Minor, the sheriff of Summit County, home to the tourist-drawing ski areas of Arapaho Basin, Keystone, Breckenridge and Copper Mountain. “It’s not uncommon for people to come up here and leave their common sense at home.”

Court reluctant to take on controversial cases v CONTINUED FROM 1B

opponents of public employee unions who had sought to end mandatory fees from non-members, now required in about half the states.

Although Thursday night’s tie vote spared just one man — Vernon Madison, convicted of the 1985 murder of Mobile, Ala., police officer Julius Schulte — it highlighted the justices’ deep divide over the death penalty.

That divide prompted an angry exchange from the bench on the last day of the court’s term in June when the justices ruled 5-4 that states could continue to use a controversial sedative as part of their lethal injection protocols. Four justices spoke up — two in favor, two against — and Justice Stephen Breyer said the court should consider the overall constitutionality of the death penalty.

Breyer raised four issues — the potential for mistakes, racial and other disparities, decades-long delays, and increasing numbers of states and counties abandoning capital punishment. Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg signed on to his dissent.

“Rather than try to patch up the death penalty’s legal wounds one at a time, I would ask for full briefing on a more basic question: whether the death penalty violates the Constitution,” Breyer wrote.

Though it was not his opinion or dissent, Scalia spoke from the bench that day to complain about the growing trend. “Maybe we should celebrate that two justices are willing to kill the death penalty outright instead of pecking it to death,” he said sarcastically.

Since then, the court has refused to take on a case testing

Demonstrators gathered outside the Supreme Court in June when it considered a case about lethal injection. whether capital punishment remains constitutional. But viewing Breyer’s dissent as an invitation, lawyers for death-row inmates continue to try.

The Texas case of Bobby James Moore, who shot and killed a grocery store clerk during a botched robbery in 1980, is the latest such effort. His attorneys say Moore’s mental competency was gauged

Since Scalia’s death in February, the court has deadlocked four times, with more almost certainly to come.

using a 23-year-old definition of intellectual disability, rather than current medical standards. They also say his execution after 35 years on death row, largely alone in his cell, would violate the Constitution.

“Prolonged confinement for many decades under sentence of death represents a sword of Damocles perpetually hanging just above the condemned individual’s head,” Moore’s attorney, Clifford Sloan, argued in court papers.

In response, Texas defended the standard used by its Court of Criminal Appeals and noted that lengthy periods of confinement have much to do with defendants’ appeals.

“Because any such delay is largely of the defendant’s own making, no court — state or federal — has held that a lengthy stay on death row renders his sentence unconstitutional under the Eighth Amendment,” the attorney general’s office said.

While Scalia’s death gives the court’s liberals equal footing on some death penalty questions, the court has been reluctant with only eight members to take on controversial cases. Testing the overall constitutionality of capital punishment would fit that category.

But Justice Anthony Kennedy has switched sides on major cases involving intellectual disability. He voted with the majority in a 2002 Virginia case that ended capital punishment for people with intellectual disabilities, and he wrote a 2014 opinion that barred states from using only a strict IQ standard to determine a prisoner’s competency.

Kennedy also has been the court’s most outspoken justice on the issue of solitary confinement.

Last year, he told a congressional panel that “solitary confinement literally drives men mad.”

Q&A

The Department of Education on transgender bathrooms

Gregory Korte l @gregorykorte l USA TODAY

The federal government issued guidance to school districts on transgender students Friday amid a national debate on the use of public restrooms by transgender people. The U.S. Department of Education, in a letter to school districts, said it hoped to provide clarity on what the law requires.

WASHINGTON

Q A: “When a school provides sexWHAT DOES THE DIRECTIVE SAY?

segregated activities and facilities, transgender students must be allowed to participate in such activities and access such facilities consistent with their gender identity.”

The guidance applies primarily to restrooms and locker rooms but also addresses a wide range of school-related activities.

Q

WHAT KIND OF A DECREE IS THIS? WHAT FORCE OF LAW DOES IT HAVE?

A: It’s not a congressional statute, an executive order or even a regulation. Instead, it constitutes what the federal government calls “significant guidance.” It puts school districts on notice about how the federal government interprets existing law — in this case Title IX, the 1972 law that prohibits sex discrimination in education. The guidance does carry the implied threat that failure to follow the federal government’s interpretation could result in the denial of federal education funding.

Q A: With limited exceptions, every WHO DOES THE GUIDANCE APPLY TO?

school receiving money from the federal government must follow the guidance. That includes

16,500 public school districts, post-secondary colleges, 7,000 universities and trade schools, charter and for-profit schools, and even many libraries and museums. Under existing regulations, religious schools are exempt “to the extent that compliance would not be consistent with the religious tenets of such organization.” Fraternities and sororities are also exempt.

Q A: In a blog post Friday, Assistant Secretary of Education for WHY NOW?

Civil Rights Catherine Lhamon said the guidance was in response to “a growing chorus of educators, parents, and students around the country” looking for clarity on what the law requires.

But it also comes the same week as the Department of Justice is duking it out with the state of North Carolina over that state’s restrictive transgender bathroom law.

Q

WHAT IF A STATE OR SCHOOL DISTRICT DISAGREES WITH THE DIRECTIVE?

A: The court battle over the North Carolina bathroom law provides a roadmap: Either the state could seek a declaratory from a federal judge, or the Department of Justice could file suit to enforce the law — or, in the

gender.

Q

Q

HOW ARE TRANSGENDER STUDENTS DEFINED, AND HOW ARE THEY IDENTIFIED?

A: A transgender person is someone whose own sense of gender identity is different from the sex observed at birth. The Department of Education says schools cannot require a medical diagnosis or other documentation to prove transgender status. The guidance assumes that the parents of students under 18 will inform the school. But it also suggests that in some cases, the student may not want to involve their parents in their gender transition.

Q

HOW MANY TRANSGENDER STUDENTS ARE THERE?

A: Exact statistics are hard to come by, in part because transgender people often keep their biological sex a secret. In 2006, the Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network conducted a survey of 6,209 gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender students involved in school groups and online forums. Of those, 295 — about 5% of the LGBT students surveyed — identified as trans-

CAN A SCHOOL SET UP INDIVIDUAL BATHROOMS SPECIFICALLY FOR THE USE OF TRANSGENDER STUDENTS?

A: A school cannot require transgender students to use their own private bathrooms unless it does the same for all students. But the guidance also suggests that schools are free to come up with alternate facilities — including faculty restrooms or single-user restrooms — and offer them to transgender students if they’re more comfortable using them.

Schools are also encouraged to put up curtains for additional privacy in locker rooms, and to allow — but not require — alternative schedules for transgender students to use facilities.

Q

WHAT OTHER FEDERAL RULES GOVERN THE TREATMENT OF TRANSGENDER STUDENTS?

A: The guidance released Friday also addressed other issues and wrapped up a number of less formal interpretations that the Department of Education has made about transgender students. For example: u Teachers and staff cannot

use a transgender student’s birth name, and school records must reflect the student’s chosen name and gender identity. The Federal Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1972 gives parents the right to challenge inaccurate records. u Schools with sex-segregated accommodations on overnight field trips must allow transgender students to sleep with students of their chosen gender. Like bathrooms, schools can offer singleoccupancy sleeping rooms, but they may not require transgender students to use them unless all students have access to them. uAthletic teams are allowed to segregate by sex — especially for contact sports — as long as they provide equal opportunities for both sexes. The guidance allows for discrimination based on standards of fair play, but those standards cannot “rely on overly broad generalizations or stereotypes” about transgender students, or be based solely on teammates being uncomfortable with their participation. uSchool-sponsored extracurricular activities and social events — school dances, graduation ceremonies — must let transgender students dress and participate according to their gender identity.

BIDS IN ZIMMERMAN GUN AUCTION UP TO $65M

HEZBOLLAH MILITARY LEADER IS KILLED IN SYRIA

Bidding in an online auction for the gun George Zimmerman used to kill Trayvon Martin was up to $65 million Friday morning as Internet trolls appeared to drive the offers to astronomic levels.

Bidding on the 9 mm Kel-Tec PF-9 pistol began at $5,000 and reached more than $65 million early Friday. The top bidder at one point used the screen name “Racist McShootface.” That account was later deleted. Another bidder used the name Tamir Rice, which is the name of a 12-yearold boy shot by police in Cleveland while carrying a toy gun.

The most recent bid topping $65 million is by someone identified as Craig Bryant.

The United Gun Group website began hosting the auction after another website, GunBroker.com, halted bidding.

But United Gun Group briefly pulled the listing Thursday night, saying the auction was not in the organization's best interest.

However, the auction was back up and running on the company’s website early Friday and the bid clock says it will be open for four more days.

Mustafa Badreddine, a top military commander for Hezbollah, died in an explosion in the Syrian capital of Damascus, Lebanon's Iran-backed militant group said Friday.

Hezbollah is fighting alongside Syrian President Bashar Assad against various militant groups seeking to remove him from power. Badreddine, 55, was directing Hezbollah’s operations in Syria.

“A strong explosion targeted one of our centers near the Damascus International Airport leading to the martyrdom of brother commander Mustafa Badreddine and wounded several others,” Hezbollah said in a statement.

Puerto Rico has reported its first case of Zika-related microcephaly, a severe birth defect in which babies are born with abnormally small heads and, in most cases, incomplete brain development.

The case was diagnosed in a fetus, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, which confirmed the results.

WASHINGTON The pharmaceutical giant Pfizer tightened its policies Friday regarding the use of drugs in lethal injections, a move experts said would make it harder for states to carry out executions.

Pfizer spokeswoman Rachel Hooper said the drugmaker already did not allow its medicines to be used in lethal injections, but out of “due diligence” updated its global policy over compliance and controls.

“We strongly object to the use of any of our products in the lethal injection process for capital punishment,” the company said in a statement. “We have implemented a comprehensive strategy and enhanced restricted distribution protocols for a select group of products to help combat their unauthorized use for capital punishment.”

States with active death rows continue to execute prisoners using drugs obtained from stateregulated compounding pharmacies. States use pentobarbital or a three-drug cocktail that includes the controversial sedative midazolam, approved by the Supreme Court in a 5-4 ruling last June for continued use.

All states favor lethal injection as the most humane method, but the supply of drugs that can do the job has been drying up because of opposition to capital punishment in Europe, where many of the drugs are produced; federal regulations preventing the importation of drugs that don’t meet U.S. standards; and recalcitrance by doctors and pharmacists who work to save lives, not end them.

Some drugs, such as sodium thiopental and pentobarbital, no longer can be obtained from European drug makers. That has

“What Pfizer has done is made clear that they don’t want their medicine to be used in killing prisoners.”

Robert Dunham, executive director of the Death Penalty Information Center

sent states scurrying to compounding pharmacists, where the drugs they get are not subject to federal regulation.

The trade group for compounding pharmacies last year discouraged its members from “participating in the preparation, dispensing or distribution of compounded medications for use in legally authorized executions.”

A week later, the American Pharmacists Association called executions “fundamentally contrary to the role of pharmacists as providers of health care.”

Pfizer’s move adds to the opposition from U.S. manufacturers and puts renewed pressure on about a half dozen states that carry out executions on a regular basis.

“What Pfizer has done is made

clear that they don’t want their medicine to be used in killing prisoners,” said Robert Dunham, executive director of the Death Penalty Information Center.

“Their corporate mission is to save lives and not to take lives.”

While this will make it far more difficult for states to carry out lethal injections, Dunham said they still may be able to obtain drugs through compounding pharmacies. Many states have passed laws imposing secrecy on the source of their lethal injection drugs.

During last year’s Supreme Court case, five justices said states could continue to use midazolam. Justice Sonia Sotomayor compared the drug cocktail to being burned at the stake. The dispute led two justices — Stephen Breyer and Ruth Bader Ginsburg — to suggest it was time to decide whether capital punishment no longer should be constitutional.

Midazolam was used in three 2014 executions in which prisoners struggled, groaned or writhed in apparent pain during the administration of drugs used to paralyze them and stop their hearts.

In 12 other executions, the drug cocktail did not cause obvious mishaps.

19 corporate leaders receive $1M or more in ‘other’ benefits Matt Krantz @mattkrantz USA TODAY

Big paychecks and options grants are two ways that CEOs score. But there also are perks — worth millions in some cases — that continue to be paid despite greater scrutiny over such windfalls.

There are 19 current CEOs, including Omar Ishrak of medical device company Medtronic, Dion Weisler of HP and Mark Zuckerberg of Facebook, who were awarded “other compensation” — or perks as they’re commonly called — valued at $1 million or more in the most recent fiscal year, according to a USA TODAY analysis of data from S&P Global Market Intelligence.

“We rarely see perks over $1 million,” says Dan Marcec, director of content at executive pay tracker Equilar. “When you do, you can venture to say they are unusual.”

Perks such as the personal use of the corporate jet or membership dues to country clubs continue to be a controversial way to pay CEOs. Perks have been flat for several years as investors pay closer attention to them. Big perk packages largely fell out of favor around 2011 when new regulation shined a bright light on everything companies were paying executives, says Robert Newbury, director on executive compensation at Willis Towers Watson.

Suddenly, additional disclosures prompted many companies to cut these payments, Marcec says.

From 2011 through 2012, the number of Fortune 100 CEOs that got aircraft perks, for instance, fell 3.9 percentage points

to 38.9%, Marcec says.

Pricey perks are still around, but are mostly ones companies think are defensible, Marcec says.

The biggest total perk award, valued at nearly $26 million, went to Medtronic’s Ishrak. The value of his perks amounts to 65% of the total $39.5 million he was paid in fiscal 2015.

Nearly all those perks were associated with the company repaying a tax Ishrak was hit with following the company’s corporate inversion, which moved its headquarters to Ireland. When Medtronic bought Ireland’s Covidien, that triggered a capital gains tax that all investors including Ishrak had to pay. It also triggered an excise tax from the federal government, which serves as a sort of penalty for such moves.

The company repaid that excise tax back to Ishrak as well as others.

Payments to help CEOs pay big tax liabilities continue to be sources of big perks. HP’s Dion Weisler pulled in perks of $12.1 million — coming from several

key benefits. Weisler got $9.1 million to cover additional taxes resulting from the fact Weisler moved to the U.S. But there were other perks connected to his move. Weisler, who used to live in Singapore, was paid $2.4 million to pay for his permanent relocation to Palo Alto, Calif., where the company is based.

Facebook’s Zuckerberg is paid $1 in salary and has been given no stock grants for years as CEO. But he received $5 million in perks — of which $4.3 million is connected with costs of personal security at his home and during personal travel. Keeping Zuckerberg protected costs nearly three times more than the $1.6 million Amazon has paid to secure CEO Jeff Bezos.

While companies are cutting back in perks overall, there are still big ones companies think are worth the price — and scrutiny.

“Companies’ evaluation determines if (perks) satisfy a business need,” Newbury says. “If companies can justify them, they leave them in.”

Buffett backing Gilbert in Yahoo battle Verizon thought to be leading bidders for Internet icon’s assets Jon Swartz @jswartz USA TODAY

Billionaire investor Warren Buffett is throwing his considerable clout behind a consortium bidding for Yahoo’s Internet assets that includes Dan Gilbert, Quicken Loans’ founder and owner of the NBA’s Cleveland Cavaliers, a news report said late Friday.

Warren Buffett backs Dan Gilbert’s group in Yahoo’s auction. way’s B class shares fell 1% to $141.50.

The group is one of several vying for properties of Yahoo, the struggling Internet icon led by

CEO Marissa Mayer, Reuters reported, citing unnamed people.

Verizon is considered the frontrunner in the auction process.

Buffett, chairman of Berkshire

Hathaway, had no comment. A representative for Yahoo was not immediately available for comment. Representatives for Berkshire Hathaway and Rock Ventures LLC, the Detroit-based investment and real estate firm chaired by Gilbert, did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

Yahoo’s fading fortunes, and growing unrest over the turnaround plan of Mayer, led to the auction after mounting pressure from activist shareholders.

The involvement of Buffett was considered unusual. Josh Brown, CEO of Ritholtz Wealth Management, tweeted that it was “rare to see Buffett pursue a company with management he can’t leave in place.”

SAN FRANCISCO Apple’s $1 billion investment in Didi, an Uber rival in China, is all about timing.

It not only firmly plants Apple in the lucrative ride-sharing market in the world’s most-populous country, it underscores the company’s commitment to China weeks ahead of CEO Tim Cook’s trip there.

“We are making the investment for a number of strategic reasons, including a chance to learn more about certain segments of the China market,” Cook told Reuters late Thursday when Apple announced the deal.

“We admire them on many, many levels in terms of innovation, in terms of cutting-edge technology,” Didi President Jean Liu said in a news conference.

“There are always a lot of things we can learn from Apple.”

China, Apple’s second-largest market after the U.S., holds vast potential but with significant hurdles. It accounts for roughly $59 billion in annual sales for Apple.

But the company’s most recent quarterly sales there fell 11% from the year-ago period because of a saturated smartphone market and a slowing economy. Apple must also navigate a market ruled by a Communist government while assuring consumers that its products are secure. Privacy especially resonates in China, where consumers are spooked by government surveillance, hacking and cybercrime.

Activist investor Carl Icahn last month sold all of his 45.8 million shares of Apple stock out of concern over its business in China.

Yet Cook envisions a sprawling middle-class eager to snap up Apple devices.

“The middle class (in China) is booming,” Cook said on CNBC’s Mad Money. “I could not be more optimistic about its future.”

Didi, whose investors include Alibaba and Tencent, is the largest service of its kind in China, with operations in 400 cities. Its market leadership prompted Uber to raise $1.2 billion last year for Uber China, according to a note today from Piper Jaffray analyst Gene Munster.

Retailer making progress, but it’s best now to wait Q: Can JCPenney remain relevant?

Matt Krantz

mkrantz@usatoday.com USA TODAY

A: JCPenney is undergoing a difficult turnaround. Not only does it need to fix itself after years of missteps, it has to do so during a challenging time for most physical retailers and department stores.

Investors are likely best served waiting until the recovery is further along.

JCPenney’s first-quarter results show how the department store chain continues to struggle, but that it is still ahead of plan. The company reported an adjusted quarterly loss of 32 cents a share, which was less than the 57 cents it lost in the year-ago period. That also was better than the 37 cents a share analysts thought the company would lose in the first quarter, S&P Global Market Intelligence says.

Given that the company is losing money and expected to stay in the red, it’s hard to make a case it’s an investment for most to take a flier on. Analysts rate the stock a hold on average, indicating the sort of wait-and-see attitude toward the company’s strategy. The company is pushing its appliance business and also aims to expand its window coverings business.

Analysts think the company will pull itself back into the black in the current fiscal year. But it’s a difficult environment given that revenue is only seen rising 2.6%.

Retail sales get a spring boost, see largest rise in 13 months Paul Davidson @Pdavidsonusat USA TODAY

Retail sales bounced back strongly in April as shoppers finally opened their wallets in a sign the economy may pick up after a weak first quarter.

Overall sales jumped 1.3%, their biggest rise since March 2015, because of higher gasoline prices and a surge in auto sales, the Commerce Department said Friday. Economists expected a 0.8% rise.

Auto sales jumped 3.2%, re-

versing March’s decline. And gasoline station sales rose 2.2% amid rising prices.

Excluding those two volatile categories, shopper purchases still increased 0.6%, more than the 0.3% economists expected.

The increase was broad-based, with sales rising 0.9% at food and beverage stores; 0.7% at furniture stores; 1% at clothing stores; 0.9% at health and personal care stores; 0.3% at bars and restaurants; and 2.1% online.

Sales were sluggish in the first quarter despite solid job and income growth, low gasoline prices and reduced household debt.

Many Americans socked away their extra cash, pushing the savings rate to a 12-month high.

Some economists blamed market volatility early in the year. But consumers were finally expected to splurge as the weather warmed in April.

With weak exports and sluggish business investment hampering the economy, analysts are looking to consumers to propel growth the rest of the year. Consumer spending makes up about 70% of economic activity.

Economist Steven Murphy of Capital Economics says he expects strong consumption to

push economic growth to near 3% at an annual rate in the second quarter up from the first quarter’s meager 0.6% rise.

“Recent claims of the demise of the U.S. consumer have been greatly exaggerated,” he wrote in a note to clients.

A new Spider-Man is swinging across cinema screens, this time without origin stories and radioactive bug bites.

Big-time superhero Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.), aka Iron Man, doesn’t even want to hear how the teenage wall-crawler (Tom Holland) pulled together his low-rent first costume in Captain America: Civil War. All Stark — and the audience meeting this fresh-faced Spidey — needs to know is that the kid’s got skills.

“Let’s just go and fight with Captain America and Iron Man and Black Widow and Vision,” says Erik Davis, managing editor for Fandango.com and Movies .com. “That’s what we want to see: Spider-Man thrown into the middle of (the action).”

Holland’s web-shooting youngster is one of the breakouts in Civil War, which raked in $179.1 million its first weekend and ranks as the fifth-biggest opening ever. The character’s introduction leads into SpiderMan: Homecoming, set to hit theaters July 7, 2017.

It marks the third take on Spidey in 14 years, following Tobey Maguire’s three movies and Andrew Garfield’s two. While Ma-

Unlike the other two, who “did not make the most believable high school students,” the 19-year-old new guy is an actual teenager, says Uproxx entertainment writer Mike Ryan. “Holland brings a genuine youthful exuberance.”

really rushed” doing Civil War, he told USA TODAY in November, but he’s “honored” to have the Spider-Man mantle. “The most frustrating thing is that I feel like I’m ready to start filming (Homecoming), but we’ve got ages yet.”

Spidey’s appearance in Civil War also solved a storytelling problem.

The conflict of Cap vs. Iron Man was becoming complicated and overly serious, says Anthony Russo, who directed Civil War with his brother, Joe. Inserting Spider-Man, his attractive Aunt May (Marisa Tomei) — whom Stark immediately flirts with — and lots of banter allowed the directors to modulate the tone and have a featured player without “all the emotional baggage these other characters have while their family’s getting torn apart.”

“Tony’s character is a narcissist, and even though he’s trying to keep the Avengers together, he doesn’t want to lose this fight,” Joe Russo says. “So it’s very interesting that he targets a 15-yearold kid who’s incredibly powerful to help him out.”

Spidey takes his licks and gets a few great lines in — from being wowed by taking on Cap (Chris Evans) to making everybody feel their age by calling The Empire Strikes Back an “old movie” — but those brief moments are almost “his own solo movie,” Davis says.

“There are no leftovers. Everything he does and says drives that version of the character forward.”

Networks get ready to unwrap their fall lineups Gary Levin @garymlevin USA TODAY

The annual rite of spring is here.

The major networks are gearing up for next week’s unfurling of the fall season’s lineups, filled with promise and — like their movie-studio counterparts — supposedly can’t-miss remakes of old movie and TV franchises.

They’re also populating schedules with familiar TV faces, with Ted Danson, Kiefer Sutherland, John Lithgow and Kevin James in lead roles. And look for still more comic-book-inspired series.

NBC and Fox kick things off Monday, with star-filled presentations to advertisers, followed

by ABC on Tuesday, CBS on Wednesday and CW on Thursday. Amid the clip reels and sharp-tongued standup bits by the likes of Jimmy Kimmel, execs will champion the growth of online viewing.

JUSTIN LUBIN, NBC

Kristen Bell and Ted Danson star as Eleanor and Michael in the new NBC comedy The Good Place.

But that won’t make up for the sorry state of traditional TV ratings: Four of the five networks are down this season. (Fox, now in fourth place, is flat) Programmers are battling incursions by streaming services such as Netflix, which are draining viewers; delayed viewing they can’t always profit from; and a current season widely deemed uninspiring for new shows.

Among the replacements:

BOB D'AMICO, ABC

ABC’s Designated Survivor stars Kiefer Sutherland as an unlikely president.

uNBC long ago ordered A Good Place, starring Kristen Bell as a woman bent on self-improvement, with Danson playing her guide; Emerald City, a limited Wizard of Oz update; and Taken, starring Jennifer Beals in a prequel to the 2008 film. Late Wednesday, it added two new comedies: Powerless stars Vanessa Hudgens as an insurance adjuster for damages caused by DC superheroes; and Trial and Error,

about a lawyer defending a poetry professor (Lithgow) accused of murdering his wife. uABC this week gave the official go-ahead to Designated Survivor, starring Sutherland as a low-level Cabinet officer who becomes president after an attack on Washington. uCBS has committed to Kevin Can Wait, a family comedy starring The King of Queens star James as a newly retired cop. uAnd Fox already has ordered the bulk of next season’s programming, including 24: Legacy, with a new cast; Star, a girl-group musical drama from Empire’s Lee Daniels; Son of Zorn, a hybrid live-action/animated comedy; a sequel to Prison Break and remakes of The Exorcist and Lethal Weapon.

Renewal and cancellation news also is trickling in: CBS this week gave the green light to a second season of comedy Life in Pieces but canceled CSI: Cyber, ending a 16-year run of the franchise that produced two other spinoff series.

For stubborn gardeners who really must grow bamboo, stick to clumping types and use some sort of containment system or plan to continually monitor the plant.

inheritors of out-of-control bamboo patches may argue against all bamboos, and with good reason.

Running bamboo types send out long roots that can travel through and under walls and sidewalks and will bust its way out

of just about any type of container.

Getting rid of it once established is almost impossible and requires removing the plants’ roots.

This is best achieved with a backhoe and several years commitment to

monitoring for regrowth on root pieces that were missed.

Back to clumping bamboos: They can be planted with care. The best case scenario would be to grow clumping bamboo in a very large container above ground. Shave new shoots out each year to keep the bamboo from busting out of its pot. For clumping bamboo planted in the ground, plan to monitor and remove new Please see BAMBOO, page 3C

Raise a ceiling for a dramatic room

By Melissa Rayworth Associated Press

Architects tend to look skyward. The ancient Greeks built coffered ceilings in their temples. Romans introduced the barrel vault. Medieval builders constructed Gothic arches and Renaissance domes to inspire the masses.

Centuries later, the impact is the same, says architect Kevin Lichten: “The ceiling of any room has the potential to be the most dramatic and moodaltering part.”

American builders in the early and mid-20th century did embrace flat ceilings. Frank Lloyd Wright would manipulate the impact of a flat ceiling by designing it lower near a room’s entrance.

“So when you came in the room and he popped it up, you felt that you’d arrived somewhere,” says Lichten, founder of the architecture and design firm Lichten Craig.

Trouble is, many other midcentury home-builders didn’t get Wright’s message. America’s suburbs are dotted with high ranches and split-level houses with flat and noticeably low 8- or 9-foot ceilings.

Some homeowners are opting to change that, removing a low, flat ceiling and extending it all the way up to the roof. It’s a big project, but it can powerfully change the look and feel of a home.

Piggyback on other construction If you’re already doing heavy remodeling — perhaps removing walls to open up a kitchen and dining room — consider raising the ceiling in those rooms, suggests Chip Wade, contractor and host of HGTV’s “Elbow Room”

AP Photo

THIS UNDATED PHOTO PROVIDED BY BRIAN PATRICK FLYNN shows a home designed by Flynn for HGTV’s “Urban Oasis 2015.” The house originally had ceilings barely 8 feet high, but they were raised as shown to create a dramatic open space. and “Curb Appeal: The Block.” The expense and challenge of redistributing the roof’s load can be shared by both projects.

If you’re not making any other changes, then raising a ceiling is an expensive choice, similar to putting an addition on your house, says Scott McGillivray of the DIY Network series “Income Property.”

Yet it can be worth the investment.

“It changes the feel of the whole space,” McGillivray says, so there’s no harm in getting estimates and considering the project.

Last year, McGillivray was part of the team that

renovated a small bungalow in North Carolina, turning it into HGTV’s “Urban Oasis” for 2015.

The cramped little home with ceilings “barely 8 feet high” became an open, airy retreat because of a new cathedral ceiling.

Once the ceiling was lifted, “Bam! The place felt monstrous,” McGillivray says. “And you get a tremendous amount of light if you do some skylights, which is what we did.”

Every home is different Get estimates from engineers or architects who can think creatively about your particular

home, says Wade.

“It needs to be someone who can see the engineering side first” and will consider more than one approach, Wade says.

Raising the ceiling of an older, pre-1950s home can be simpler than doing so on a newer home, says McGillivray, because older houses were often built with rafters rather than prefab trusses. Exposing rafters doesn’t change the structure of the roof, so it’s a smaller job.

Removing modern trusses and rebuilding the roof’s support is a larger project, usually involving the addition of a huge center beam running the length of the room.

Older, Victorian-style houses are likely to have a very pitched roof, adding considerable height to a room. So you can raise the ceiling to a game-changing height by exposing those vintage rafters.

Other ceiling options If raising your ceiling is too expensive, consider easy, decorative fixes like metallic ceiling tiles and coffered panels.

You can make the most of a decorative ceiling through “vertical tricks,” says Lichten. Try installing paneling vertically up to the ceiling, or adding tall, vertical windows to create the illusion of height.

Or try making the ceiling artificially lower at the entrance by adding a few inches of soffit above the doorway.

“There’s a basic human need to feel this vertical force in a room,” Lichten says. “So anything you can do to bring the eye upward, to bring it skyward helps.”

f there’s one decor trend that hits summer’s sweet spot, it’s tropical style.

Furnishings and accessories made of tropical plant and tree fibers started to appear in the fall, in modern vintage and midcentury pieces. And that trend has expanded for spring and summer to wall coverings, textiles and rugs printed with imagery drawn from the jungle, beach and rainforest.

“I think it really took off when design bloggers collectively rediscovered the iconic banana-palm wallpaper in the Polo Lounge at the Beverly Hills Hotel,” says Joss & Main’s style director Donna Garlough.

“It’s called Martinique, and it’s this huge, oversize print that makes a gigantic statement and has a cool Old Hollywood vibe,” she says. “It makes me think of a ’40s starlet on vacation at glam resorts in Beverly Hills or Miami.

When designers and shelter magazines started featuring it in midcentury-style rooms, often with white furnishings and brass accents, readers loved it.”

One fun aspect of tropical décor is that you can interpret it many ways — glamorous is one style, but there’s also island, preppy or boho.

You may even have a little deja vu moment, says Garlough.

“There can be an element of late ’70s/early ’80s kitsch to it,” she says. “I recently watched a rerun of ‘Golden Girls’ and laughed my head off over all the tropical elements on that set that have come back into vogue, from the rattan furniture to the macrame plant hangers.

Blanche even had that famous palm wallpaper in her bedroom.”

For her Nashville, Tenn.-

— Jennifer Smith is a former horticulture extension agent for K-State Research and Extension and horticulturist for Lawrence Parks and Recreation. She is the host of “The Garden Show.”

A CERAMIC PINEAPPLE LAMP, ABOVE, and bedding with a flamingo print, right, both from Overstock.com., are easy ways to give your home a tropical touch.

“

I recently watched a rerun of ‘Golden Girls’ and laughed my head off over all the tropical elements on that set that have come back into vogue, from the rattan furniture to the macrame plant hangers.

— Donna Garlough, style director for decor company Joss & Main

based studio, Peacoquette Designs, Sarah Walden has created a striking palm-leaf print. With the leaves printed on a teal blue background, the design has a historical vibe.

On a coral/pink background, it looks more midcentury modern. It’s available on several different fabrics, or as wallpaper.

A palm-printed pillow can freshen a sofa or chair. You’ll find a collection of throw pillows and shower curtains with big, bold palm-leaf prints at

Add a few inexpensive rattan pieces; the textures contrast nicely with contemporary furniture’s trim lines, and bring homey charm to more bohemian spaces. Rattan also works as a foil for both bright and neutral hues.

Pottery Barn’s Beachcomber collection includes sea grass, rattan and abaca fibers woven into chunky baskets. And a little rattan bar cart is part of Target’s summer Threshold collection.

For color beyond foliage green, consider sultry hues like orchid, banana and passion fruit. Go beachy with a palette of tans, creams and grays.

Overstock.com has Tommy Bahama’s Tropical Hibiscus throw pillow and a chic white pineapple table lamp. Flamingo-printed sheets bring the theme into the bedroom, and the pink bird struts across a preppy-striped rug.

Kate D. Spain, based in Bridgeport, Conn., has designed a woodblock print incorporating exotic blooms, leaves and vines. The limited edition artwork comes in ocean-y hues of turquoise, blue and violet.

Antique scarf prints of tropical flowers and birds have been reproduced as canvas wall art at Pottery Barn. And Grandin Road has a set of four vintagestyle parrot illustrations for wall art.

HOME REMODELING

| 3C

Tropical decor takes off again

Bamboo shoots each spring to contain the size. Plants can also be contained by placing a physical barrier in the soil, such as metal, concrete or plastic. Physical barriers should go down at least 30 inches and be checked periodically for signs of compromise.

When selecting a clumping bamboo, pay special attention to cold hardiness and mature size. Many cold-hardy clumping bamboos will reach 10 to 15 feet in height at maturity, so they still need quite a bit of room to grow.

The other option to planting a clumping coldhardy bamboo is to use native bamboo. There are three bamboo species native to North America.

They are switch cane, river cane, and hill cane (Arundinaria tecta, A. gigantea, and A. appalachiana respectively).

Switch cane and river cane grow throughout most of the eastern U.S., while hill cane is limited to the Appalachian Mountains in the Southeast. They lack the exotic look of many of the imported bamboos, but they also lack the invasive potential and serve as a food source for some butterfly larvae.

Gardeners seeking to remove bamboo where digging is impossible can try mowing repeatedly.

Removing top growth will eventually starve the roots. This method may take three years or more of regular attention.

Herbicides are reported to take just as long as mowing, and are most effective when plants are mowed and the herbicide is applied to new growth that appears soon after mowing.

Lucky bamboo, the houseplant often sold as a single stem rooted in gravel, is not a bamboo at all. The scientific name is Dracaena sanderiana — it is cousins with a number of other popular houseplants.

KANSAS BASKETBALL

Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

Boren reins in growth banter Leave it to Oklahoma president David Boren, to date the loudest and most adamant opinion-sharer in the Big 12 expansion saga, to flip this thing on its head.

Talking with reporters Thursday in Norman, Okla., Boren gave a feet-on-theground, rooted-in-reality indication of exactly where the Big 12 Conference stands — at least through his eyes — concerning the idea of expansion.

His message, in short: “I think we kind of got out ahead of ourselves,” Boren told reporters. “Somehow, the speculation got out ahead of the reality.”

CBSsports.com’s Dennis Dodd wrote a terrific recap of Boren’s meeting with the media, and, although the OU president’s comments don’t by any means put an end to the idea of expansion, they certainly bring things back a level or two and promote the idea that nothing, perhaps other than more discussion, is imminent.

During the past week or so, you’ve read a lot about the universities who have done the most “campaigning” for a spot in an expanded Big 12. ESPN.com revealed that representatives from Memphis, Colorado State, Houston and Central Florida all recently contacted leaders in the Big 12 about the idea of joining the conference and went out of their way to explain what they could offer the Big 12 if selected.

However, one of the most interesting aspects of Boren’s Thursday briefing was his claim that as many as 25 universities have contacted the Big 12 in some way to make known their interest in joining the conference in the future.

For a conference that so many claim is so vulnerable, that’s an awful lot of interest. Sure, all of those schools currently reside outside of the Power 5 — at least I presume that’s the case — but it’s clear that all of them see great value in the Big 12. Even if many of them also are reaching out to the Big Ten, Pac-12, SEC and ACC, it at least has to be considered a good sign that the Big 12 is still seen from the outside to be on the same level as those other conferences. And why wouldn’t it be? Uncertain future or not, the Big 12 still includes some serious power players in college athletics and has growing television deals worth big bucks with the nation’s biggest networks.

Just as Boren’s comments about the need to expand did not make it happen overnight, his most recent words of caution about putting the cart before the horse do not mean that expansion talk is going away.

What those words do mean, however, is that, before this thing is all said and done, the Big 12 may actually wind up stronger than ever.

LIBERTY’S EVAN MAXWELL (15) GETS FOULED GOING UP FOR A SHOT in the first half against William & Mary on Tuesday, Nov. 17, 2015, in Lynchburg, Va. Maxwell, a 6-foot-10 sophomore big man, is transferring from Liberty to Kansas University.

Soph leaving Liberty for Kansas

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Former Liberty University center Evan Maxwell, a 6-foot-10, 245-pound sophomore out of Clarks Summit, Pa., is headed to Kansas University on a basketball scholarship, Maxwell told the Journal-World on Friday night.

Maxwell, who visited KU earlier this week, chose KU over Baylor, Cincinnati and Virginia Tech and perhaps others.

KU coaches cannot comment on transfers until paperwork is received and processed.

Maxwell, who averaged 10.0 points and 4.8 rebounds

a game his sophomore season for the Flames (13-19), is a graduate of Abington Heights High School.

Maxwell hit 63.7 percent of his shots (128 of 201) and 63 of 99 free throws (63.6) his sophomore season at Liberty.

He totaled six blocks, 10 steals, 17 assists, 68 turnovers on the season, logging 21.5 minutes per game.

He started 30 of 32 games as a sophomore.

Coming out of high school, Maxwell chose Liberty over Monmouth, his only other Div. I offer.

Sources say Maxwell will be a scholarship player at KU, thus the Jayhawks still have two scholarships to

award for the coming 2016-17 season.

Maxwell showed improvement his sophomore season, as he went for 2.1 points, 1.1 rebounds and 6.0 minutes a game his initial year at Liberty.

“He has good hands, great spirit and teachability, humility, unselfishness and a knack to score the ball,” first-year Liberty coach Ritchie McKay told the Scranton Times last season.

“I thought, ‘Man, we’ve got a really good player here.’ I think he’s gotten to the point where he’s not just settling for being above average,” McKay added. “He’s trying to touch greatness.”

He had 22 points and eight

boards last season in a loss to Princeton.

“The guys listen to him,” McKay told the Times. “And when you work as hard as he works, I think the other players take the onus and say, ‘I have to step up my effort because, look at Maxwell. He’s giving his very best.’”

Maxwell told the Scranton Times his improvement was helped by his losing 25 pounds the offseason between his first two seasons.

“I’ve gotten a lot stronger, too,” said Maxwell, quicker and more agile his sophomore campaign. “I used to be able to push people around Please see HOOPS, page 4D

Woods sparks LHS at league track

By Bobby Nightengale bnightengale@ljworld.com

Olathe — There’s something about nasty weather that brings out the best in Lawrence High senior JD Woods.

After a 80-minute weather delay Friday, Woods took first place in the 100-meter dash,

third in the 200 meters and helped the Lions finish second in the 4X100 relay at the Sunflower League track and field championships at Olathe District Activity Center.

Woods won the 100 in 10.68 seconds, running with the wind at his back, edging Shawnee Mission Northwest’s Ian McCabe by 0.01

seconds. Earlier in the season, Woods ran the fastest time in the state (10.66) when it was raining at the Topeka Seaman Relays.

“I think just playing in the cold weather during football season,” Woods said, “being able to be out in the cold and getting hit and stuff, just helps me.”

Woods took second at the Class 6A state meet last season, finishing runner-up to former Free State High runner Avin Lane, who moved out of state.

The schedule was crowded to begin with, but here’s another event for anyone traveling to Rio this summer for the Olympics: Russian roulette with the Zika virus.

Win, and you get a stress free trip home and some nice memories of the games.

Lose, and you don’t even want to think about what might happen to you or your unborn child.

The Olympics in Brazil always seemed like a sketchy idea, even before anyone knew what the Zika virus was or the terrible health problems it can cause. Grandiose plans to clean up Rio and its waters never came to fruition, and an investigation by The Associated Press showed some athletes will be competing for gold medals in sewage-infested waters.

Now, less than three months before opening ceremonies, the Brazilian economy is in shambles, with inflation rampant and unemployment on the rise. The country is also mired in a deep political crisis that culminated Thursday in a vote to impeach President Dilma Rousseff.

Meanwhile, a handful of golfers say they won’t be going to Rio, and a group of other athletes is demanding that Russians be banned from competing unless there is absolute proof that they are not doping.

There have been deep cuts in the security budget, adding to the fears that always exist that terrorists will target the world’s biggest sporting event.

Add to that new allegations of shenanigans in the bidding for the 2020 Olympics in Tokyo, the resignation last week of the head of the 2018 Winter Olympics in South Korea, and a report that Russian athletes and doctors switched urine samples in Sochi to escape detection, and the Olympic movement is besieged on a number of fronts.

Not that you would know it by the official — and incredibly tone deaf — pronouncements coming out of IOC headquarters in Switzerland.

“We have seen the great progress being made in Rio de Janeiro and we remain confident about the success of the Olympic Games in August,” IOC President Thomas Bach said in a statement Thursday.

No, the official party line hasn’t changed, and there are no expectations that it will. There’s too much money at stake in the lucrative business of operating the Olympics, including the $1.22 billion that NBC paid to televise the games in the United States.

Besides, doping scandals and bribery are nothing new to the Olympic movement. The games have not only survived but thrived through a succession of various scandals, boycotts and even the 1972 Munich terrorist attack.

What they haven’t had is a health risk as frightening as the Zika virus. Scientists are still learning about Zika, but it has already been proven to cause a range of debilitating defects in babies born with abnormally small heads and neurological problems, and there are indications it can cause a rare paralyzing — and potentially fatal — condition called Guillain-Barre syndrome in adults.

BRIEFLY Kansas tennis falls in NCAAs Berkeley, Calif.

— Kansas University’s women’s tennis season ended with a 4-3 loss to UC Santa Barbara on Friday in the opening round of the NCAA Championships at Hellman Tennis Center.

The match was tied 3-all as KU senior Maria Jose Cardona battled UCSB’s Amanda Atanasson.

Cardona saved nine match points in the second set to force a third, but ultimately fell 7-6 (5), 6-7 (0), 7-6 (8) in a three-hour match.

“Today was a tough day,” Kansas coach Todd Chapman said. “In these types of matches you never tend to feel good at the end. Maria fought off 10 match points, nine in the second set to get to a third. The fight she showed there is what this team is about, it’s what this program is about. We never give up. We are never going to give in on ourselves or our teammates.

“Obviously it is tough to lose because she fought off 10 match points and had four match points herself. The whole team fought hard. The effort we gave was something to be proud of.”

Playing down a player due to illness for much of the last month of the season, Kansas faced the Gauchos with just five players.

A loss at No. 2 doubles and forfeit at No. 3 cost KU the doubles point, and the Jayhawks forfeited at No. 6 singles to put themselves in a 2-0 hole.

Anastasiya Rychagova (No. 1), Janet Koch (No. 3) and Nina Khmelnitckaia (No. 4) posted singles victories for Kansas.

Friday’s match marked Kansas return to the NCAA Championship after a 17-year absence. The Jayhawks concluded their 2016 season with a 17-8 record.

KU men’s golfers relish NCAAs

By Tom Keegan Twitter:@TomKeeganLJW

Sometimes, things really are as enjoyable as they would appear from a distance.

For example, taking a college golf road trip after finishing final exams sounds like emerging from a blizzard and landing on a sun-kissed beach that has a seat with your name on it.

“It’s fun,” Kansas University junior Chase Hanna said. “You get to go on somebody else’s dollar

and see the country. It’s not a bad thing.”

Maintaining that attitude could serve Kansas well as it opens NCAA play in the Alabama Regional, Monday through Wednesday in Tuscaloosa, Ala., at Ol’ Colony Golf Complex. The Jayhawks left Friday for Birmingham, where the team is scheduled to play a practice round on a course with Bermuda grass today. The official practice round takes place Sunday at Ol’ Colony.

“It’s probably a little

bit stickier,” Hanna said of Bermuda grass.

KU coach Jamie Bermel said, “Being down there an extra day is going to help. We haven’t played on Bermuda in a couple of months. It’s different. The greens are a little different. The fairways are a little different.

It’s nothing major, but it’s good to get some reps.”

Hanna said he studied the regional course online: “It looks good. It looks like it’s really challenging, looks like it’s long. I’m looking forward to it.”

LHS soccer falls to Topeka In its regular-season finale, Lawrence High’s girls soccer team lost, 4-0, against Topeka High on Friday at LHS. The Lions (7-9) will begin regionals next week.

Veritas baseball falls in tourney Shawnee — The Midland Monarchs scored four runs in the first inning and went on to defeat Veritas Christian, 9-5, on Friday night in the KCICI baseball tournament.

Weston Flory collected two hits, and Tucker Flory and Matt Fred had a hit apiece for the Eagles.

Veritas (21-4) will continue tournament play Monday in Shawnee.

schools at the Alabama regional. The top five teams from each of the six regionals advance to the NCAA finals in Eugene, Ore. “I was thinking about this the other day,” Bermel said. “When I was at Colorado State, we were a five seed two years in a row and missed by four (strokes). The next year we were an 11 and got in. Sometimes when there are not a lot of expectations, you go out, play golf and see where it falls.”

LHS senior Tayvien Robinson, who was running late for a family reunion, won the 110-meter hurdles in 15.17 seconds.

“We’ve worked hard, and we know that we have a shot to maybe win a state title if we just put the pieces together,” Woods said.

Free State senior Callie Hicks won her second straight league title in the pole vault, clearing 12 feet. She took three attempts at 12-9, looking to break the school record, and narrowly missed on her final attempt.

“Definitely very encouraging for me, given the weather conditions,” Hicks said. “Since it was pretty windy and just kind of nasty out, it gives

me some confidence for next time when, hopefully, the weather is nice. I was looking at some tape, and I was a good foot, at least, over my 12-9 attempt.”

Before Hicks won her pole vault title, she was presented with the league’s $1,000 Merlin Gish scholarship alongside her parents. One boy and one girl are selected throughout the league’s 12 schools.

“That was such a neat thing that they did,” Hicks said. “I’m really honored to receive it, and it was cool having my parents out, too. I think that was awesome.”

first match against Junction City senior Angeleau Scott. He wasn’t hitting his usual shots and couldn’t find consistency with his serve against the ultra-athletic Scott.

Instead of letting the set get away from him, Abromeit won the tiebreaker and the match, 6-1, 7-6 (5).

Abromeit won his second match in straight sets, beating Dodge City junior Brett Groth, 6-2, 6-2.

“He was probably one of the more athletic players that I’ve ever seen,” Abromeit said. “I got a little afraid during the wait and stuff, and I tightened up during the second set.

But I had enough to pull it out. He was a really good player.”

Abromeit’s prize for advancing into the quarterfinals is a matchup against top-seeded Max Kurzban, who won a 5A state title last season. The Blue Valley West junior

“I’ll tell you, the nerves are all gone now,” Abromeit said. “I play Kurzban next, so you really can’t be nervous. I’ve got nothing to lose now. The hard part is over. Now it’s just having fun and appreciating what I have.”

LHS coach Chris Marshall added: “We played a similar player in Thompson Tong at regionals, and it was a fun match.

It was some of the best tennis Elliott has played.

Now, those great players are very difficult to beat, but it’s a fun match

to play. It should be a lot of big hits, and Elliott is going to go for it, so we’ll see what happens.”

Pultz-Earle and Czapinski had to sit around about two hours before stepping on the court because of a first-round bye.

Free State coach Keith Pipkin said he was a little worried about how they would respond to the long break, but they were sharp, cruising to a 6-1, 6-3 victory against Washburn Rural’s Devin Wright and Jordan Lind.

“You could tell that the other team was warmed up, but we tried to be

pretty ready,” Pultz-Earle said. “We’ve been kind of moving around and tried to be mentally ready to get after it as soon as we got out on the court.”

Pultz-Earle fought through back pain throughout the week leading to state, but it didn’t show on the court. His serve was dominant, smashing a few aces, including one ace on his second serve.

After watching Washburn Rural break a serve, Czapinski flipped the momentum with a few slams at the net. The duo will face the top-seeded team in the quarterfinals, Blue Valley North seniors Brady Flanagan and Connor Garrett, who own a 22-4 record.

Free State juniors Seamus Ryan and Jonah Pester lost their first match in doubles, falling 6-1, 6-0 against Blue Valley’s Min Moon and Tyler Elmendorf.

Ryan and Pester were leading 3-2 against Derby’s Gabe Smith and Ryan Palmer before rain stopped the match.

FSHS freshman Sawyer Nickel lost to Washburn Rural’s Max Cassidy in the first round, 6-2, 6-2.

real and talk of bringing back a Big 12 title game in football doesn’t figure to go away quietly — but if a guy like Boren can come around like this in a relatively short period of time, there’s no reason to think the Big 12 Conference’s other most pressing issues can’t be taken care of as well.

“This is the kind of decision that has to be

reached by consensus,” Boren said of expansion.

“It’s not the kind of thing you say, ‘OK, by a vote of 8-2, we’re going to do this.’”

I know the 80 percent vote, though a lot, is all it would take to get certain items crossed off of the Big 12’s potential to-do or want-to-do list. But, if you ask me, it would be a wonderful show of

solidarity if the conference demanded — either in writing or otherwise — that all issues up for a vote require unanimous support to pass.

That not only would ensure that any changes would be of an all-forone-and-one-for-all mentality, but also would put the conference on more stable footing than ever.

LAWRENCE HIGH SENIOR ELLIOTT ABROMEIT COMPETES at the Class 6A state tournament Friday at the Harmon Park Tennis Complex in Prairie Village.

Manhattan — Senior left-hander Ben Krauth allowed just one run over 81⁄3 innings, and Kansas University collected 11 hits off four Kansas State pitchers in a 4-1 Big 12 baseball victory over the Wildcats on Friday at Tointon Stadium.

Krauth (5-5) allowed five of the first seven batters he faced to reach base, including four in the first inning, when Kansas State plated its lone run.

But Krauth settled down, ultimately allowing just the one run off six hits, with nine strikeouts and three walks.

“Krauth was really special tonight,” KU coach Ritch Price said. “There was not one person in our dugout that didn’t want to win tonight. I wanted to take him out after the eighth — he was at 119 pitches — but he persuaded me otherwise, so I sent him back out in the ninth.”

He couldn’t quite finish. Closer Stephen Villines picked up his fifth save by allowing a hit over the final two-thirds of an inning.

Kansas (20-29-1 overall, 6-12 Big 12) and KSU (24-26, 6-13) will continue their series with a single game at 6:30 tonight at Tointon.

KU’s Daina Levy won the hammer throw, Jake Albright won the men’s pole vault, and Sharon Lokedi won the 10,000 meters, breaking a 20-year KU winless streak in the event.

Levy won with a toss of 218 feet, 3 inches. Albright’s winning height was 18-01⁄2. And Lokedi won in 34:59.58.

because I was heavy.

Now I’m not as heavy, but just as effective.” l

Diallo update: Kansas University freshman Cheick Diallo scored nine points and grabbed 10 rebounds in Friday’s NBA Combine scrimmage in Chicago.

After that effort, he told ESPN’s Jeff Goodman he will definitely hire an agent and stay in the draft.

Zagsblog.com says Diallo will sign with an agent Monday.

“This is the time for me to go to the next level,” the 6-9 Diallo told Goodman of ESPN.com.

“And I’m trying to show the NBA the things I do well — block shots, rebound and run the floor.

I can guard multiple positions.”

Diallo interviewed with 12 NBA teams at the combine and according to ESPN’s Chad Ford also told the NBA execs he planned to stay in the draft. He said he will likely work out personally for eight to 10 teams starting next week.

“I am so appreciative of the opportunities I have. I never could have imagined all this five years ago,” said Mali native Diallo, who has been playing ball five years.

He told Zagsblog.com: “The NCAA suspended me for 3-4 months so I came in late, nothing I can do. I was behind everybody. I could not help the team. Sometimes I played three, four minutes in the game but I’m a team player, I don’t get mad, I’m happy for my team every time.”

Of his time at KU, he told Zagsblog that get-

ting a late start while the NCAA examined his high school academic materials, didn’t help any.

“If it’s not NCAA stuff, if the NCAA didn’t suspend me, definitely I play more....I was behind everybody. I just come in late, nothing I can do. I was not mad at the coach.

Not mad at anybody, Just keep working hard every day,” he told Zagsblog. com.

Diallo has encouraged other players, including Udoka Azubuike, to sign with KU, Zagsblog reports.

“Basically, I’m not selfish, I do things for Kansas,” Diallo said. “I’m not going to say, ‘Bro, don’t come here.’ I’m not going to say that. He’s asking me. I say, “Kansas is nice.’

If he (Azubuike) committed, fans love you, coach loves you. My time here is totally different. It’s NCAA stuff. It’s totally different.”

Kansas City, Mo. (ap) — Edinson Volquez is known for getting his pitch counts high early.

He was efficient and effective Friday night.

Volquez pitched seven solid innings, Alcides Escobar had two hits, scored a run and drove in a run, and the Kansas City Royals beat the Atlanta Braves 5-1 to open a sixgame homestand.

The World Series champion Royals had dropped 12 of their previous 16 games, while the Braves, who have the worst record in the National League, lost for the 17th time in 25 games.

“It was good, man, especially to play at home, coming back from New York where we had lost three games over there and to win the first game at home was a great feeling for us,” Volquez said.

“It was a big win.”

Volquez (4-3) picked up his first victory since April 21, snapping a threegame winless streak. Erick Aybar’s sacrifice fly in the seventh scored Jeff Francoeur, who led off the inning with a single, for the only run Volquez allowed.

Volquez, who threw 55 strikes in 83 pitches, allowed one run on six hits, walked none and struck out two.

“He really managed his pitch count,” Royals manager Ned Yost said.

In his previous start, he threw 105 pitches in 41⁄3 innings in a loss to the Indians, allowing five runs on seven hits and four walks.

“Last time at Cleveland, I was all over the place,”

I used my fastball a lot and they made contact. It was easy for me to get a lot of groundballs.”

Julio Teheran (0-4) is winless in eight starts this season, the longest winless streak of his career, despite a 1.48 ERA in his past five starts. Teheran held the Royals to two runs, one unearned, and four hits over seven innings.

“How much better can you ask for than his performance?” Braves man-

ager Fredi Gonzalez said.

“He got himself in a little jam and he got himself out of it with some bigtime punch-outs at some big times in the sixth inning. He did great. He gave us every opportunity to win the ballgame.

Shoot, seven innings of two-run baseball, just one earned run, that’s a helluva outing.”

Escobar led off the Royals’ first with a single to right and advanced to third on Francoeur’s two-base fielding error. Escobar scored on Lorenzo Cain’s groundout to Aybar.

Escobar’s two-out single in the second inning scored Cheslor Cuthbert, who has hit in all seven games he has played since being called up from Triple-A Omaha.

Braves rookie left-hander Hunter Cervenka, who had retired the past 30 hitters he had faced and not allowed a run in his first 15 major league appearances, gave up three runs on two hits and a walk in the eighth. Salvador Perez’s two-run single off Alexi Ogando was the key hit of the inning, while Kendrys Morales drove in the other run.

“If there’s anybody out there who thought he was going to go the rest of the year without giving up a run or giving up a base hit, they’re crazy,” Gonzalez said. “Now we know that he’s human.”

Royals left fielder Alex Gordon’s 188-game (187 of them starts) errorless streak ended in the fourth inning when he dropped Freddie Freeman’s fly.

Gordon’s last error was Aug. 2, 2014, at Oakland.

Sunflower League

NBA PLAYOFFS

Miami forces a 7th game Miami (ap) — The Miami Heat went small, and came up big.

With that, another Game 7 awaits.

Goran Dragic scored a postseason careerhigh 30 points, Dwyane Wade added 22, and the Heat rode a small lineup to a 103-91 victory over the Toronto Raptors on Friday night, tying their Eastern Conference semifinal series 3-3.

“Last year at this time we were all on vacation,” Miami coach Erik Spoelstra said. “So often in this business people tend to want to search for the easy route. There’s usually not an easy way in a seven-game series, certainly not with a second and third seed going against each other. This is the path ... and now we’ve pushed it to a Game 7.”

It comes Sunday in Toronto. The winner will head to Cleveland for Game 1 of the Eastern Conference finals on Tuesday night. Both the Heat and the Raptors won a Game 7 in the first round.

Kyle Lowry scored 36 points for Toronto, on 12for-27 shooting. DeMar DeRozan added 23 for the Raptors, but their teammates combined to shoot 14 of 34 from the floor and manage 32 points.

“We came here to try to win the game,” Raptors coach Dwane Casey said.

“We didn’t come here with a seven-game series in mind. It’s been a great series, they’re a championship-caliber team, well-coached team, but we came in here to try to win the game. We didn’t come in here wanting a Game 7.”

Joe Johnson had 13 points, Justise Winslow added 12, and Josh McRoberts scored 10 for the Heat.

But now they need a win on the road, or else the season ends Sunday.

“We played all year to get 56 wins and be the No. 2 seed in the East and get home court in this type of situation,” Lowry said. “It’s going to be fun.

Game 7, two versus three, get an opportunity to play on one of the biggest stages there is.”

Dragic shot 12 of 21, Wade blocked a gamehigh three shots and the Heat — despite some serious size deficiencies with injured starting center Hassan Whiteside still out — only lost the rebounding battle 43-41.

“I knew this guy to my left was going to have an amazing performance tonight,” Wade said, sitting

alongside Dragic postgame. “You could tell he was on the brink of one.”

Neither team divulged its starting lineup until warmups were underway. The Heat had reason for subterfuge, after choosing a super-small starting five of Dragic, Wade, Johnson, Luol Deng and Winslow.

Desperation? Maybe.

The results? Splendid.

The Heat used eight players — the tallest being McRoberts, at 6-foot10. The average height of the others was just under 6-6.

“They made a great adjustment,” DeRozan said.

“Give them credit.”

Deng jumped center and Winslow got his first playoff start, three games after sitting out Game 3 entirely. The Heat like using the term “positionless basketball” and Winslow epitomized it early — in a 60-second span, the rookie guarded Raptors center Bismack Biyombo (“that’s what we lift weights for,” Winslow quipped afterward), brought the ball up like a point guard and made a corner three.

“Justise did an amazing job,” Dragic said.

Whiteside, watching from the locker room, was thrilled.

“The guys played really well,” said Whiteside, who will fly with the Heat to Toronto but said he will not play Sunday.

“Goran got in the paint a lot and made it tough on their guys and D-Wade did D-Wade stuff.”

Dragic scored 14 in the second quarter, helping Miami take a 53-44 lead at the half. The lead got to 13 in the third, Dragic again coming up big with a three-point play followed by a jumper. And when Toronto got within six early in the fourth, Dragic and Wade scored the next six points to keep Miami in control.

MAJOR-LEAGUE ROUNDUP

Sale defeats Yankees for eighth win The Associated Press

American League White Sox 7, Yankees 1 New York — Chris Sale became the major leagues’ first eight-game winner, working quickly and efficiently in a sixhitter that led the White Sox over the Yankees on Friday night.

Jimmy Rollins hit a two-run homer in the third inning off Luis Severino (0-6), who left one pitch later because of soreness on the back of his right elbow and was sent to a hospital for an MRI. Sale (8-0), the first White Sox pitcher to win his opening eight starts since Jon Garland in 2005, retired 15 consecutive batters from the fourth through the eighth innings. He struck out six and walked none.

Sale did not throw more than 15 pitches in an inning and tossed a season-low 99 pitches in all.

Athletics 6, Rays 3 St. Petersburg, Fla. — Danny Valencia hit his first two home runs of the season in his first game back from a hamstring injury, and Oakland beat Tampa Bay. Valencia sat for two games this week after reinjuring the left hamstring that had landed him on the disabled list.

He had two of Oakland’s four homers in this one.

Rich Hill (5-3) pitched six innings to win for the fourth time in his last five starts. A diving catch by Valencia at third base helped Ryan Madson work out of a basesloaded jam in the ninth to earn his ninth save.
