AUDREY HAHN, OF LAWRENCE, cleans and decorate some family grave sites last week at Oak Hill Cemetery.

Hahn says she visits the sites seasonally and was decorating early for Memorial Day. The cemetery in East Lawrence is the resting place of many well-known people from the city’s past.

Cemetery walk reveals past both homey and historic Lawhorn’s I Lawrence ’m walking among the greats of Lawrence: men like Charles Robinson, Kansas’ first governor, abolitionist James Lane, and famed architect John G. Haskell, among others.

They all surely must have the same thought as they watch me confidently stride along: How lost is Lawrence these days?

No, not political commentary they’re offering. Just commentary on my map reading skills. I’ve got a map of the Oak Hill Cemetery as part of a brochure for a self-guided tour of Lawrence’s most historic resting place. I’m dutifully searching for No. 1 on the tour stop: Wilson B. Shannon, who, of course, was a territorial governor of Kansas. Of course.

THIS MONUMENT in Oak Hill Cemetery was erected in 1895 as a memorial to Lawrence residents who were massacred in William Quantrill’s raid of Aug, 21, 1863.

The remains of most of Quantrill’s victims have been moved to this area of Oak Hill Cemetery. The cemetery is 150 years old this year.

Two Douglas County commissioners say they have been asking County Administrator Craig Weinaug for some time to adopt a building codes policy that was more instructional and service-oriented and less punitive, and they are set to discuss that relatively new approach at a meeting June 3.

The calendar is creeping toward the date when, under Kansas law, people will be able to carry concealed guns into buildings on college campuses, even without a concealed carry permit.

It’s become increasingly clear that adding security measures to block guns from all entries into all buildings is not financially or logistically feasible. Kansas University’s Lawrence campus alone has 237 buildings, and statewide there are 864, according to

Hazel Wadean Colquitt GaCHes Following an extended period of declining health, Hazel Wadean Colquitt Gaches passed gently to heaven on Thursday, May 21, 2015.

In her final hours, she was surrounded by family and friends at the Good Shepherd Hospice House in Manhattan.

She passed to her lord immediately following the recitation of the Lord’s Prayer by her niece Lora Annette Bernstein Cooley and her oldest son Ron. Hazel Wadean Colquitt Gaches was born in a rural home outside of Comer, Georgia on January 28, 1931. She was the oldest daughter of Wade Hampton Colquitt and Luna Mae Steele Colquitt. As a youth she excelled at basketball and loved the outdoors.

She left Comer at the age of 16 for Columbus, Georgia where she lived with her Aunt Billie and worked in a department store. At age 18 she fell in love with a young Army officer completing his training at Fort Benning, Georgia and travelled cross-county by train to marry Robert A.L. Gaches in Washington State on December 28, 1949.

During her early years of marriage, she enjoyed the adventures of life as an officer’s wife, and later, beginning in 1963, enjoyed raising her family and building many lasting friendships while living in Manhattan, Kansas.

Although she always remained a Georgia peach, she loved the change of seasons and rolling hills of the Kansas Flinthills.

Dean deeply loved her family and her animals.

She was a great cook and homemaker, and partner for her husband. She lived a Christian life and was a moral compass for her two sons, Ronald and Michael, and taught them to respect themselves and others, and to love all animals. She helped to care for all of the family’s dogs, including her husband’s hunting dogs, showering them with love and affection.

But her biggest animal love was her big gray, tabby cat Fritz, who would lie on her shoulder and nuzzle her face with his whiskers. The neighborhood squirrels all knew they could find a free meal in Dean’s backyard, where her giant cottonwood tree provided them shelter.

Although she was short on formal education, Dean was smart about people and could spot a phony from across the room. A selfdescribed, yellow-dog

Democrat from the red clay hills of northeast Georgia, she was a populist through and through.

She stayed abreast of the latest political news and had strongly held opinions about who should be running the country and how.

Dean loved cooking and sharing a cup of coffee with her friends.

Her favorite foods were sweet potatoes, home grown tomatoes and peaches. The last food she ate was a baked sweet potato. She loved to garden and work in her yard, and was an environmentalist before she knew the word.

Dean was preceded in death by her beloved sister Lila Annette Colquitt Bernstein, of Athens, Georgia and her faithful husband Robert, originally from southeast Kansas. She also lost a half-brother, Billy Colquitt of Elberton, Georgia.

She is survived by her sons Ronald Neil Gaches, and his wife Colette and their two children, and Michael Dean Gaches, and his wife Sonya and their three children; her halfbrother Troy Colquitt of Elberton, Georgia and his family; and her nieces Lora Bernstein Colquitt and Robin Bernstein Dance, and her nephew Jason Bernstein and their families.

Funeral Services for Mrs. Gaches will be held at 1:30 p.m. Tuesday May 26, 2015 at the YorgensenMeloan-Londeen Funeral Chapel in Manhattan, with the Rev. Ben Duerfeldt officiating.

Private Interment will be held at the Fort Riley Post Cemetery.

Dean’s friends are encouraged to make a contribution to the Riley County Humane Shelter in her memory, help a deserving animal find a loving home.

Contributions may left in care of the YorgensenMeloan-Londeen Funeral Home, 1616 Poyntz Avenue, Manhattan, Kansas 66502.

Online condolences may be left for the family through the funeral home website at www. ymlfuneralhome.com Please sign this guestbook at Obituaries.

Library stats point to success

Memorial map

By Chad Lawhorn Twitter: @clawhorn_ljw

On one side are the Union Civil War soldiers buried at Maple Grove, just north of Highway 24, and on the other are those buried at Pioneer Cemetery on Kansas University’s West Campus.

“It makes it easier for people in the years that come to find the graves,” Archer said.

Archer made the user-friendly map as his Eagle Scout service project, the final requirement for becoming an Eagle Scout, the highest rank attainable in the Boy Scouts. Archer, who has been putting flags on veterans’ graves for several years with his troop, said he had the idea for the project when he and his fellow scouts weren’t able to find all the graves using

The latest numbers at the Lawrence Public Library continue to indicate the expanded facility is a hit with users.

Whether the new numbers attached to the library’s 2016 budget request will be a hit at City Hall remains to be seen.

City commissioners at their Tuesday evening meeting will receive the library’s 2014 annual report. Library Director Brad Allen said he thinks the report shows strong support from local residents but also shows a need for an increase in operational funds. He said he plans to seek a 5 percent budget increase — or about $200,000.

“We see the numbers in this report as an indication that we have support Allen in the community for what we are doing,” Allen said. “We want to be as lean and mean as we can be, but right now we are a little too lean.”

Among the findings in the library’s annual report was that the library has the highest per-capita circulation numbers of any library in the state that serves a community of more than 35,000 people.

But among that group of 10 large libraries, Lawrence ranks No. 7 in per-capita spending on library operations.

In 2014, Lawrence spent $40.36 per person on library operating expenses.

That trailed the Topeka & Shawnee County Public Library, which greatly outspent the others at $95.61 per person. The median spending for the group was just under $49 per capita.

Other numbers in the report: l Visitor totals were the fourth highest per capita in the state. The library had 503,892 visits in 2014. Allen expects that

IAN ARCHER, 15, OF LAWRENCE, PLACES FLAGS AT CIVIL WAR VETERANS’ GRAVESTONES Saturday at Maple Grove Cemetery. For an Eagle Scout project, Archer plotted new maps to locate Civil War veterans’ graves in both Maple Grove and Pioneer cemeteries.

Scout charts graves of Civil War veterans “

Their gravestones rise in odd angles from the ground, and the letters of the soldiers’ names, once cut sharply into the stone, have been smoothed by time and veiled under lichen. But 15-year-old Boy Scout Ian Archer wants to make sure these men are remembered.

With a map in one hand and a fistful of American flags in the other, Archer sought out the gravestones of Civil War soldiers at Maple Grove Cemetery on Saturday morning.

The clover has won out over the grass, and Archer placed the flags aside each grave amid tiny purple flowers. The placing of the flags culminates a year-long

It’s important to keep the history alive.”

project to map each grave’s location. Archer said that after the soldiers gave their lives fighting in the Civil War, they should be remembered. “It’s important to keep the history alive,” he said.

The map Archer created should make that task an easier one. The laminated 18-by-20-inch map includes photographs of each gravestone, labeled with the soldier’s name and a number corresponding to a location on an aerial photograph of the cemetery grounds.

County CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A

residence inside a steel barn last year.

Kobach had sworn in an affidavit in 2013 that the 2,520-square-foot steel building in north Douglas County would be used for agriculture purposes and not as a residence. The difference between residential and agricultural buildings, in terms of code requirements and expense, is substantial.

But last year, a county inspector found Kobach building a twobedroom residence in half of Flory the building without notifying the county or obtaining a building permit.

Gaughan and Flory Weinaug said last week that Kobach was not treated any differently from anyone else under the new unwritten policy that Weinaug implemented in March last year. Kobach was just one of the first people in the county to experience the new policy, they said.

“I feel OK with the overall direction we are heading in the county,” Gaughan said. “These cultural shifts we are trying to achieve in the office have to be partnered with clear policy changes that we obviously haven’t done yet.”

Reporting by the Journal-World last Sunday found that county officials gave Kobach several passes even though he violated the county’s building code by not obtaining a residential construction permit: l Kobach did not have to pay a fine for beginning to build without a permit, as the code requires. l Sherman did not make Kobach tear out the concrete floor so that the plumbing beneath could be inspected. l Sherman also issued Kobach an occupancy certificate in September even though Kobach has no approved water source.

County officials said others have been treated like Kobach, but they have not yet provided examples.

Code change coming County commissioners said they had not realized the building codes mandated that a violator pay a fine until the newspaper story was published.

As a result, they say they plan to discuss the issue and possible changes to the code at the June 3 County Commission meeting. They also said

the new unwritten policy requiring codes employees to be more consumer-friendly needs to be clearer.

“When we brought Jim Sherman on, we did so knowing his charge was to change the culture of the zoning and codes office,” said Gaughan, who was the executive director of the Kansas Democratic Party for four years. “Believe me, there is probably nobody in the state of Kansas who I would rather fine the heck out of than Kris Kobach, but we have been deliberately moving toward a more serviceoriented office and not a punitive approach.”

Kobach is a Republican.

Weinaug said the commission at the June 3 meeting would specifically address changing the code that requires a fine for people who begin construction without a permit. He said he would like the word “shall” pay a fine to be changed to “may” pay a fine.

The code had not been changed to agree with the new policy, he said.

“As a result of the story, I moved that to the front burner,” Weinaug said.

Questions remain Others in the area’s construction industry aren’t ruling out favoritism, especially because they were unaware of the county’s new unwritten policy to be more serviceoriented.

“I don’t buy that,” said Don Orlowski, a retired civil engineer and vice chairman of Douglas County’s board of construction codes appeals.

“Kobach obviously was treated with kid gloves.

I think (the new policy) was an excuse they dreamed up when they got caught. I don’t even understand what they mean when they say they have been over restrictive,” Orlowski said.

But Flory said he has been talking to Weinaug for six years — since he was elected — about his concerns that the codes department is too punitive.

“When I first campaigned I received a number of anecdotal pieces of evidence from people throughout the county who had concerns about the zoning and codes and the approach that was taken,” Flory said. “One of my first conversations with (Weinaug) is how do we become more cooperative in our approach to people. (Weinaug) was trying to be more customer friendly and approach issues with more cooperation than confrontation, and that certainly is consistent with what I have been telling him for the last six years.”

Flory said he did not realize that the code regarding fines was mandatory and said the commission needs to discuss

changing that.

“Permissive language I think typically is better,” he said.

Another member of the construction appeals board disagreed with Flory, saying that more permissive codes could result in more people believing they can avoid building their projects to code.

Stephen Lane, an architect and chairman of the construction appeals board, also questioned whether people had really been treated unfairly by code inspectors in the past.

“It’s hard to have a code, a legal requirement, and adjust it on a caseby-case basis,” Lane said.

“It’s like ‘maybe we have a speed limit, maybe we don’t.’”

Challenge pending Laura Green, a south Douglas County resident, filed an appeal with the construction appeals board two weeks ago, saying the building codes were not correctly applied to Kobach in two ways: The county gave his property a low valuation that resulted in a relatively low permit cost, and it failed to assess the required penalty fee for Kobach beginning construction without a permit.

The county has appraised the property at $145,000. Kobach’s building permit was based on a valuation of $70,000, making his fee $700.

Sherman denied her appeal and told her in an email that she had no standing because she was not the person seeking the permit, based on a finding by the county attorney. This week Green emailed the appeal to the individual construction appeals board members.

After reviewing the appeal, board member Orlowski sent an email Thursday to Lane, the chairman, and Green, who shared it with the Journal-World.

“This application clearly needs to be reviewed by the Board of Construction Appeals,” Orlowski wrote to Lane. “This whole thing is starting to smell like a cover-up to protect the Sec. Of State after he lied on his permit application.”

The right path Gaughan said Kobach’s project was an example of how the more consumer-friendly codes department should operate.

Once an inspector finds a builder like Kobach hasn’t obtained the proper permits, the inspector should explain to the builder that the project should not be done that way and explain the correct way, he said.

“The new approach is to get (the builder) on the right path and move forward from there,” Gaughan said. “Once he is on the right path ... we will help them achieve

their goals and do it safely.”

County Commissioner Nancy Thellman said commissioners have had several emails and phone calls regarding the Kobach case.

E l l e n LeCompte, a county resident, wrote in a letter to the commissioners that the Thellman chief building officer should still make Kobach do the work that he didn’t have to do.

“No one should be exempt from fines, inspections, or official appraisals in Douglas County,” LeCompte said. “Kobach, like everyone else, should have paid double the fine for starting construction without a permit, obtained a legitimate appraisal in line with the County appraisal, torn out the concrete so his plumbing could be inspected, and had proof of a water supply before getting a certificate of occupancy.”

Thellman apologized that the commission would not discuss the policy until June 3, but said she thought it would be an important meeting. She said she would delay discussing the merits of the new policy until that meeting, when she would have more information.

“There has been enough public discomfort with what is a hard conversation,” Thellman said. “Definitely folks are paying attention and hoping for a strong response from the County Commission. I hope the folks who have concerns will be attending the meeting.”

GIVE YOUR DOG a once-a-month heartworm preventative to prevent infection from the start.

Heartworm a sneaky danger to dogs during warmer months Critter Buzz W ith the warm spring weather comes our universal enemy the mosquito.

This pest is more than just an annoyance during outdoor activities — it can lead to a life-threatening illness in dogs that is entirely preventable. All dogs should be treated monthly with a heartworm preventative because infestation with this parasite can cause serious and life-threatening complications.

The heartworm is an actual worm that can grow up to 12 inches or longer. It lives primarily in the blood vessels that carry blood to the lungs to pick up oxygen to circulate throughout the body.

In severe cases, these worms can even infest the heart itself and can cause high blood pressure, difficulty breathing and eventually death caused by heart failure.

Luckily heartworms are not contagious to people and are not transmitted directly from dog to dog. Instead they are transmitted between animals by mosquitoes as a form of larva that enters the mosquito when it is feeding. The host mosquito is not capable of infecting other animals immediately, but instead incubates the larvae over several weeks.

Once infectious, the mosquito spreads the disease to other dogs through its bite. The danger of infection for pets usually begins in the spring after a few weeks of warm weather.

In some parts of the country where there is no deep freeze in the winter, heartworm can be a threat all year long. Your veterinarian will test your dog annually for heartworm and may recommend that you keep your dog on preventative all year long.

Once infected, these immature worms can spend up to 5 months maturing in the dog’s body before migrating to the pulmonary arteries.

When the worms are ma-

Jennifer Stone turing, heartworm tests will be negative.

When the maturation process is complete, the larvae migrate to the pulmonary artery, where they grow into mature worms and release more immature worms into the blood stream, starting a brand new life cycle.

Signs of heartworm can include coughing, fainting and difficulty breathing. The animal may also be easily fatigued. Unfortunately, animals may have heartworm for several years before signs of the disease appear.

When signs finally do occur, the heart and pulmonary arteries are often so full of worms that treatment is very risky and can sometimes result in fatal side effects. Our shelter treats several dogs a year who have heartworms, and treatment for this disease is costly.

What can you do to prevent it? Without a doubt, the easiest way to ensure the health of your dog is to prevent infection from the start. Heartworm preventatives are a oncea-month tablet or chew that often also protects against intestinal parasites as well. Although these preventatives cannot treat heartworms once they are present, they can prevent your dog from getting them in the first place.

Be sure you test for heartworm every year and get your dog on a good preventative to keep his or her heart in great shape!

Earthquakes rattle south-central Kansas Wichita — Two earthquakes hit south-central Kansas on Saturday, and one could be felt almost 100 miles away.

The U.S. Geological Survey said an earthquake measuring 3.3 on the Richter Scale hit southwest of Pratt near Sun City in Barber County on Saturday morning. A second earthquake measuring 4.0 hit in nearly the same area about three hours later.

The second earthquake could be felt in Wichita.

The Wichita Eagle reports both earthquakes measured about three miles deep.

Introducing

More than 200 earthquakes have been recorded in Kansas since 2013 in an unprecedented spike in seismic activity.

In April, the U.S. Geological Survey released a report that said man-made quakes tied to oil industry operations have been on the rise.

Opinion

Lawrence Journal-World l LJWorld.com l Sunday, May 24, 2015

EDITORIALS

Voter hammer Secretary of State Kris Kobach says his office will begin almost immediately to enforce new, tougher voter fraud laws that are on their way to the governor’s desk.

A

bill that takes away local control of voter fraud prosecutions and allows people who violate state voting laws out of confusion or a simple misunderstanding to be convicted of a felony and sentenced to jail is now on its way to Gov. Sam Brownback’s desk.

The measure, which already had been approved by the Senate, passed the House on a narrow 67-55 vote on Thursday.

A key provision of the bill would give the Kansas secretary of state authority to prosecute voter fraud cases, something that has been advocated by Secretary of State Kris Kobach for several years. The power to prosecute those cases now lies with county and district attorneys. The new law would allow voter fraud cases to be prosecuted by local prosecutors, the secretary of state or the Kansas attorney general, meaning that a case that a local prosecutor decided shouldn’t be pursued still could be taken up by one of the state officials.

Giving that power to the state attorney general could make some sense, but giving it to the secretary of state is a highly questionable and unusual move. While it’s appropriate for the secretary of state’s office to identify alleged cases of voter fraud, the decision whether to pursue those cases should be up to the state and local prosecutors who have been elected specifically to make such decisions. Giving prosecutorial power to the secretary of state also suggests that office will have to maintain additional legal staff — at additional taxpayer expense — to pursue those prosecutions.

Other provisions of this bill lower the standard of proof and raise the penalties for various voting infractions. A prosecutor would have to show only that a person knew he or she was committing a certain action — such as voting at a polling place or returning a mail ballot — but wouldn’t have to show that person knew he or she was committing an illegal act — such as casting a ballot at the wrong polling place or returning a mail ballot after moving to another state. Opponents of the bill say an act as simple as attempting to vote at the wrong polling place or without being properly registered could be prosecuted.

The bill also makes voting infractions that currently are misdemeanor crimes into Class 7, 8 or 9 nonperson felonies.

People with no previous convictions who are convicted of those felonies likely would be eligible for parole, but they also could be subject to jail terms ranging from six months to a year. Having a felony conviction on their record also could affect their ability to get a job or qualify to participate in certain federal and state programs.

Opponents of this legislation have raised concerns that some Kansans will be deterred from attempting to vote out of fear that they might unknowingly commit and be prosecuted for some illegal action.

Intentional, malicious voter fraud is a serious matter that warrants prosecution, but this law could set the stage for overly zealous and harsh prosecution and penalties for what many Kansans think is a relatively small problem in the state.

Senator tackles war power issues Washington — The Revolutionary War and Civil War ended in Virginia, which was involved, by the 9/11 attack on the Pentagon, in the beginning of today’s war with radical Islam. Now a Virginia senator is determined that today’s war shall not continue indefinitely without the legitimacy conferred by congressional involvement congruent with the Constitution’s text and history.

Tim Kaine, former Richmond mayor, former governor and former national chairman of the Democratic Party, represents the distressingly small minority of legislators interested in crafting an authorization for use of military force (AUMF). This is easier vowed than accomplished.

Kaine’s interest in Congress’ role in the making of war quickened in October 2002, when President George W. Bush, on the eve of midterm elections, sought an AUMF regarding Iraq, even though the invasion was not imminent. The University of Virginia’s Miller Center released the report of the National War Powers Commission (NWPC), co-chaired by former Secretaries of State James Baker and Warren Christopher. It recommended a new codification of the allocation of war powers between the president and Congress.

On Sept. 7, President Obama said he was going “on the offensive” against the Islamic State. In August, he had gone beyond protection

George Will

“

As Obama’s war strategy collapses, he should welcome company during his stumble through the gathering darkness.” of threatened consular staff at Erbil, an emergency presidential responsibility requiring no congressional authorization. When, however, he unilaterally undertook, also in August, military action to protect a dam about 80 miles from Erbil, Congress, with the lassitude of an uninvolved spectator, did not express itself. Instead, it recessed unusually early, seven weeks before the 2014 elections.

Such dereliction of duty, Kaine says, is as unacceptable as pretending that the AUMF of Sept. 18, 2001, suffices to regulate presidential war-making discretion in the current context. Lacking both temporal and geographic limits, it authorized force “against those nations, organizations, or persons” who “planned, authorized, committed, or aided” the 9/11

attacks “or harbored such organizations or persons.” Even while the Twin Towers and Pentagon still smoldered, Congress rightly rejected language authorizing force “to deter and pre-empt any future” terrorism or aggression.

While now claiming to need no authorization beyond that of 2001, Obama suggests an AUMF that would permit military action against the Islamic State and “associated forces,” which would include any group, anywhere, seeking a charisma injection by claiming adherence to the Islamic State.

Because the definitions of today’s enemy and the nature of today’s war are blurry, perhaps any new AUMF must be extremely elastic. Sen. Marco Rubio suggests one authorizing “whatever steps are necessary to defeat ISIS. Period.”

To at least partially immunize the future from today’s paralyzing ambiguities about the executive’s and legislature’s respective war-making responsibilities, Kaine and fellow Sen. John McCain propose legislation essentially incorporating the National War Powers Commission recommendations, as follows: Unless Congress declares war or otherwise authorizes any “significant armed conflict” (“lasting more than a week”), it must, within 30 days of the beginning of such a conflict, vote on a joint resolution of approval. This protects presidential power by reversing the presumption of the 1973 War Powers

Resolution that inaction by Congress suffices to establish congressional disapproval.

The Kaine-McCain legislation would, however, constrain presidents by institutionalizing consultation: The joint resolution would be proposed by a permanent Joint Congressional Consultative Committee made up of the House speaker and Senate majority leader, the minority leaders of both bodies, and the chairs and ranking members of the four most germane committees of both (Armed Services, Foreign Relations, Intelligence and Appropriations).

As Obama’s war strategy collapses, he should welcome company during his stumble through the gathering darkness. As always, however, his arrogance precludes collaboration with Congress.

And Congress, knowing that governing involves choosing, which always involves making someone unhappy, is happy to leave governing to him.

When Kaine began running for the Senate, he says he was warned that he would join “the unhappiness caucus” composed of senators who previously had experienced the pleasure of exercising executive power. He is, however, finding satisfaction, of sorts, reminding the national legislature that the fault is not in the stars but in itself that, regarding the most solemn business, it is an underling.

Veteran forced to make shameful choice Before he tried marijuana, he thought of trying suicide.

Heavy drinking hadn’t helped. Nor had various pills prescribed by Veterans Affairs doctors. He was still angry, still depressed, still could not sleep.

But he found that marijuana helped. It took the anger and depression away.

It took the sleeplessness away. Most of all, it took the 11-year-old boy away.

PFC Jared Hunter never knew the boy’s name. He was just some Iraqi kid who liked to hang around the Army base outside Baghdad. “He didn’t really speak English or nothing. He would just kind of follow us around and would point things out or tell us if there was somebody there who shouldn’t have been.”

The soldiers adopted him as a mascot. Hunter bought him a soccer ball.

The boy was with the soldiers when they came under fire while patrolling an alley. When the shooting was over, he was dead.

If combat does nothing else, it hardens you to indiscriminate death. “You just learn to deal with it,” says Hunter. “Something like that happens, at that time you just walk on past it and forget about it. Of course, later on,” he adds softly, “it

may come up a little bit or something somewhere.”

It came up with a vengeance on Hunter. He’s a 30-year-old Arkansas native living near Daytona Beach who joined the Army in 2003 right out of high school and served two tours. He was discharged with a diagnosis of post-traumatic stress disorder, a neat, clinical term for night terrors, heart palpitations, rage and the seductive lure of suicide.

Hunter was almost seduced.

He says he was sitting there

with gun in hand when his father found him.

Finally, a friend suggested something he had never tried: marijuana. He says pot worked like magic. “It calmed the anxiety. I wasn’t having near as many anger problems. ... The suicide stuff went away. I didn’t really feel that desperate to do anything like that again. I’ve got a bad back and a bad neck; it relieved any kind of pain that I had. It just helped so tremendously that it was unbelievable. Nightmares ... I could actually go to sleep. I didn’t have insomnia.

I wasn’t scared to go to sleep.

I could actually lay down and ... get a halfway decent night’s rest.”

Marijuana had saved him.

Then, last year, police came to his door. He still has no idea who tipped them off.

They arrested him and confiscated marijuana plants he says he was growing for his own use. Hunter found himself facing five years in prison. Prosecutors offered a deal: Plead guilty and accept probation. He refused.

He didn’t want to be branded a criminal and stripped of his civil rights.

But last week, he accepted a new offer. It requires him to pay court costs and costs of prosecution, amounting to less than $1,000. His record

will show not a conviction, but a withhold of adjudication — essentially, a judicial get-out-of-jail-free card that leaves his civil rights intact.

One is glad Hunter’s legal travails have come to such a favorable end. But who’s to say the next person in his position will be as fortunate? More to the point, we should be appalled this sort of thing is even possible, that a veteran can be threatened with prison because he used the only effective treatment for a wound incurred in the service of his country.

That scenario is viscerally offensive — and well worth remembering as America continues the torturous process of reforming its drug laws and drug hypocrisies.

Hunter, meantime, is thinking seriously of moving to Colorado or some other marijuana-friendly state. The problem, he says, is that cold weather causes his physical wounds intense pain. In effect, then, he is required to decide between the well-being of his body and that of his mind.

That’s a shameful choice to impose on a man who damaged both body and mind fighting for his country And for, you know, freedom.

Guns CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A

the Board of Regents’ most recent facilities inventory.

What’s still very unclear is how KU and other schools will implement the change when it becomes effective July 1, 2017. And, at least at KU, that has some faculty and students worried.

“A significant concern is, of course, the effect an armed classroom will have on the open expression of ideas from all sides of a discussion,” said Michael Williams, incoming KU University Senate president and an associate professor of journalism. “Some faculty and students have expressed an unwillingness to be part of a class environment where there may be guns and have stated clearly this will challenge their decision to work or study at KU.” Williams said he personally is even more concerned about the possibility of accidental shootings in areas where multiple students live, or of increased potential for suicide among troubled students finding access to guns easier than before.

Laws allow guns A series of new laws and other developments are knocking down barriers to having concealed guns in Kansas college classrooms.

Gov. Sam Brownback signed a law in 2012 expanding where people with concealed carry permits can take their guns. The law allows guns in public buildings that don’t have certain security measures, such as metal detectors and trained guards, but universities and many other public entities got a fouryear exemption.

After July 1, 2017, campus buildings must allow concealed carry unless the building has adequate security.

A new twist: In April, Brownback signed a law, which will become effective July 1, that says Kansans no longer need concealed-carry permits, and thus the training required to get them, to carry concealed guns.

In October 2013, in reaction to the first law change, the Kansas Board of Regents ordered each college to prepare building-bybuilding assessments of the impact of allowing the concealed carry of guns on their campuses.

Those are now complete but not available to the public for safety reasons, said Breeze Richardson, director of communications for the Regents.

The Regents Governance Committee has received reports from all schools, with KU presenting its report in January, according to a Regents agenda. Commit-

. tee discussions were held in private, also for safety reasons, Richardson said.

“Safety on our campuses is always a top priority, and we will continue studying this issue throughout the period of exemption,” Richardson said.

‘No way’ One item that emerged from those conversations, Board of Regents chairman Kenny Wilk said, is that universities won’t be installing security at all of their 800-plus buildings.

“There is no way,” Wilk said. “It would be cost-prohibitive for us to try to put the security that’s required in place in each building. That’s not practical for us, so we’re not going to do it.”

Installing security at selective buildings is a possibility, Wilk said.

Some buildings, such as dorms where students live or stadiums that draw large crowds, already have some security in place at entrances, Wilk said, which could make them easier to more

GUNS ON CAMPUS NATIONWIDE 20 states ban carrying concealed weapons on college campuses.

23 states allow each college or university to decide whether to ban concealed carry.

7 states have laws allowing the carry, now or in the future, as is the case in Kansas, of concealed weapons on campus: Colorado, Idaho, Kansas, Mississippi, Oregon, Utah, and Wisconsin.

Source: National Conference of State Legislatures website ue to consider what steps need to be taken for implementation of the law,” university spokeswoman Erinn Barcomb-Peterson said in an email response.

University Senate initiative Meanwhile, university faculty, staff and students are starting some initiatives of their own.

This week, the University Senate Executive Committee plans to form an ad hoc committee to explore options and recommend actions, Williams said.

It would be nice if they could persuade legislators in the 2016 session to

“

Some faculty and students have expressed an unwillingness to be part of a class environment where there may be guns and have stated clearly this will challenge their decision to work or study at KU.” — Michael Williams, incoming KU University Senate president and an associate professor of journalism tightly secure.

However, he said, the Regents will not impose “cookie cutter” mandates on universities.

He said board members came away from committee meetings with a “comfort level” that universities were adequately working to develop plans, and noted that there are still two years until the exemption runs out.

However, Wilk said the new law enabling concealed carry with no permit is a concern and that governance committee members need to “reanalyze” in light of it.

“In my personal view, that’s much different,” Wilk said. “The change is substantial.”

Wilk said he understands campus communities are afraid.

He said the regents and universities must balance respect for legislation and the legislative process with campus safety.

“We understand the anxiety,” he said. “We understand the concerns of the people that are there on the campuses every day... It is something we take very seriously, and we’re going to keep working diligently at it. I’m glad that we’ve got time.”

KU would not answer specific questions from the Journal-World about what the university is doing to prepare for concealed carry coming to campus.

“KU and the other regents institutions contin-

change the law or extend exemptions, Williams said.

Nice, but unlikely.

“As there is little optimism such changes are likely, we will need to be creative in how will establish protocols for dealing with guns on our campus,” Williams said.

“I consider this a major issue for consideration by the senate during my term and hope to work with the provost and university administrators at KU and at the other regents schools to find solutions to this problem.”

Williams’ ideas include threat-abatement training for faculty and staff who could find themselves confronted by an armed person, protocols for determining true threats as opposed to assuming any gun is a threat and calling 911, and establishing “safe zones” around campus that could be monitored or maintained as gun-free zones “where diverse opinions and voices can be heard without the chilling effect of weapons being present.”

The rationale behind the law The concealed carry legislation that will ultimately allow guns on campus cleared the Legislature in 2013 with fourfifths majorities in both chambers.

Legislators approved the gun-rights bills in the wake of discussions among federal officials about new guncontrol measures follow-

ing a mass, fatal shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary in Newtown, Conn.

Lawmakers enacted a law allowing the carrying of concealed weapons in 2005 over then-Democratic Gov. Kathleen Sebelius’ veto, and the state began issuing permits in 2006. Afterward, some legislators such as Sen. Forrest Knox, an Altoona Republican and a leading advocate for gun-rights measures, were frustrated because they believed the Regents and local officials had been too quick to prohibit guns in their buildings, using the power granted to them to bar weapons simply by posting notices at entrances.

“When a gun is in a school and harm is meant, there is only one thing that is going to stop that, and that is another gun,” Knox said in 2013.

Referring to the shootings at Sandy Hook and the unarmed teachers who were killed while trying to protect students, Knox said, “We’ve got to get our heads out of the sand. There are guns and there are people with evil intent and law enforcement is not always the first responder. The first responders at Sandy Hook are all dead.”

Campus conversations Allan Hanson, professor of anthropology and the faculty sponsor of a small student club called Keep Guns Off Campus, said he’s been surprised

by how many KU community members he encounters who have not heard about concealed carry coming to campus.

“I think this is an unbelievably crazy situation that we’re facing,” Hanson said. “I think we’re going to end up with guns on campus two years from now, I do. But I hope there will be an uprising against it that will be strong enough that we can get that law repealed.”

Hanson said he is “hopeful” but not necessarily “optimistic” that lawmakers could be convinced to change the law.

“It would take quite a housecleaning at the next election,” he said.

Keep Guns Off Campus president Michael Hernandez, who just formed the currently sevenish-member group this spring, is going to give it a go.

“My primary goal is trying to raise awareness with students that when they don’t vote, this is the kind of stuff that happens,” Hernandez said.

Hernandez said club members have done a tabling event — setting up a table on campus and talking with passersby — and want to do more.

He said he’s heard some students say that allowing concealed carry is a good thing because a person with a gun could thwart a mass shooter.

Hernandez said he’s less worried about mass shootings than the more everyday type of gun violence, where arguments escalate out of control and instead of dissipating them sans weapons, someone ends up shot.

Hernandez said even he doesn’t think it’s feasible to secure every building.

His club’s count at Wescoe Hall alone turned up more than 20 entrances, he said. Nor would students want to go through

airport-like security just to get to class every day, he said.

“It’s going to really change the campus environment,” he said.

One day in November 2013, a handful of members from another small student club, the KU Chapter of Young Americans for Liberty, wore empty gun holsters on campus in support of allowing concealed carry.

At the time, the protest organizer was not an enrolled KU student. The Journal-World’s attempt to reach several current members last week was unsuccessful.

Art Hall, School of Business lecturer and executive director of the school’s Center for Applied Economics, has been the club’s faculty sponsor for several years, he said.

However, Hall said, the student group has been loosely organized, not highly active and views on campus concealed carry weren’t necessarily shared by all members.

Hall said he was unaware of plans for any events regarding the issue of concealed carry on campus.

Irish Sen. Katherine Zappone, left, kisses her partner, Ann Louise Gilligan, as supporters of same-sex marriage waited for the results of the referendum Saturday in Dublin.

Ireland legalizes same-sex marriage More than 62% of voters support change Kim Hjelmgaard USA TODAY

Ireland has become the first country to legalize same-sex marriage by national referendum, a result that highlights the dramatic pace at which this traditionally conservative Catholic nation has changed in recent times.

Just 22 years after decriminalizing homosexuality, 62.1% of voters approved the measure changing the nation’s constitution to allow gay marriage, according to official results by Ireland’s referendum commission. National turnout in Friday’s poll was 60.5% of 3.2 million eligible voters.

“With today’s vote we have disDUBLIN

closed who we are: a generous, compassionate, bold and joyful people,” Prime Minister Enda Kenny said, according to The Associated Press.

“We’re the first country in the world to enshrine marriage equality in our constitution and do so by popular mandate,” Leo Varadkar, Ireland’s health minister who revealed he was gay during the campaign, told state broadcaster RTE. “That makes us a beacon, a light to the rest of the world of liberty and equality. It’s a very proud day to be Irish.”

David Quinn, the director of the conservative Iona Institute, a leading figure behind the “No” campaign, tweeted: “Congratulations to the ‘Yes’ side. Well done. #MarRef.” Campaigners on both sides

said the high turnout, buoyed by strong engagement from younger members of the electorate as well as the many Irish expatriates who returned home to cast their votes, contributed to the “Yes” result.

The referendum was seen as an especially complex one for Ireland, where about 85% of the population still identify as Roman Catholic even though church attendance has been steadily declining for a few decades. The church’s moral authority has been questioned in the wake of a series of sexual abuse scandals and cover-ups involving children.

Around the world, 18 countries have approved gay marriage nationwide, the majority of them in Europe. Others, such as the United States and Mexico, have approved it in certain regions.

Drug overdoses soar Addiction treatment remains hard to find Liz Szabo

USA TODAY

With nearly 44,000 deaths a year, more Americans today die from drug overdoses than from car crashes or any type of injury.

Many of these deaths could be avoided if patients had better access to substance abuse therapy, experts say. Yet people battling addiction say treatment often is unavailable or unaffordable.

Only 11% of the 22.7 million

Americans who needed drug or alcohol treatment in 2013 actually got it, according to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration. Some of those who went without care did so by choice. But at least 316,000 tried and failed to get treatment.

“We know addiction treatment saves lives, reduces drug use, reduces criminal activity and improves employment,” says Paul Samuels, president and director of the Legal Action Center, which advocates on behalf of people

WACO Law-abiding weekend warriors with a penchant for fast bikes? Or violent, meth-fueled rabble-rousers with a taste for crime and guns?

Defining the Bandidos Outlaw Motorcycle Gang at the center of last weekend’s bloody brawl here that left nine dead and sent 18 to the hospital is a tricky endeavor and depends on who’s asked.

“There’s no reason for anyone to be in fear of them at all,” said Edward Winterhalder, a former high-ranking Bandidos member who now writes books and screenplays about motorcycle culture. “It was always about having a good time.”

Police are still processing the 170 suspects they’ve arrested and combing through the carnage and weapons left behind at the Twin Peaks restaurant, where police say a fight between rival gangs escalated into a shootout. The Bandidos, as organizers at the meeting that brought rival gangs together, were there in force.

It was one of the single deadliest clashes between motorcycle gangs known to area law enforcement and gang members.

“There’s blood evidence everywhere,”said Sgt. W. Patrick Swanton, a Waco police spokesman.

The Bandidos were founded in Texas in 1966 by Vietnam veteran Donald Chambers; the group has grown to about 900 members and 93 chapters, according to the FBI. The group itself claims it has 200 chapters with more than 2,500 members in 16 countries.

But unlike the Wild West days of the 1960s and ’70s, when outlaw motorcycle gangs like the Bandidos, Hell’s Angels and Outlaws flouted the law, today’s groups prefer to keep a much lower profile, said James Quinn, a University of North Texas profes-

Cleveland cop acquitted in deaths of two black motorists White officer fired shots after chase Doug Stanglin USA TODAY

A Cleveland police officer was acquitted Saturday of charges of voluntary manslaughter in the shooting deaths of two unarmed people in a 137-shot barrage following a high-speed car chase.

Cuyahoga County Common Pleas Judge John O’Donnell ruled that Michael Brelo, 31, a white officer, acted reasonably in the November 2012 deaths of

Timothy Russell, 43, and Malissa Williams, 30, two black occupants in the vehicle.

The judge said he found that “Brelo’s entire use of deadly force was a constitutionally reasonable response to an objectively reasonably perceived threat of great bodily harm from the occupants of the Malibu, Russell and Williams.”

Brelo, his lips quivering, appeared near tears as the judge delivered the verdict. He then embraced his attorneys and left the courtroom.

Before delivering his verdict, O’Donnell noted the recent unrest in Ferguson, Mo., and Balti-

more over the deaths of black suspects involving police officers, but said he would not “sacrifice” Brelo to an angry public if the evidence did not merit a conviction:

“Guilty or not guilty, the verdict should be no cause for a civilized society to celebrate or riot.”

The 2012 incident began with a chase after Russell’s beat-up Chevy Malibu backfired as it sped past police headquarters, which caused officers to think someone in the car had fired a gun.

Although 13 officers fired at the car after the chase, only Brelo faced criminal charges. Prosecutors said he waited until the car had stopped and the pair were no longer a threat before he leaped onto the hood and fired 15 rounds down into the windshield.

An angry cluster of around 30 protesters gathered outside the

courthouse, shouting “no justice — no peace” and holding signs in front of sheriff’s deputies bearing clear shields. The plaza in front of the building was cordoned off.

One man stood with his head bowed and hands folded, praying in silence.

The shooting spurred a U.S. Department of Justice investigation that found that the police department had engaged in a pattern of using excessive force and violating people’s civil rights.

The city and Justice Department are negotiating terms of a consent decree that a federal judge will approve and independent monitors will oversee.

Who really are the Bandidos? v CONTINUED FROM 1B

sor who has studied and written about outlaw motorcycle gangs.

Today, Bandidos — known as part of the “1%ers” of motorcycle gangs — have a fraternal element to them, such as organizing toy drives and staging motorcycle races, and a gang-like element, where members stick up for one another in the face of threats from rival gangs or police, Quinn said. But they also typically have an organized crime element, where members run drugs or guns for money, he said. Over the past five years, federal agents have indicted more than 20 Bandidos in North Texas on federal drug and weapons charges, he said.

Still, last Sunday’s outburst of violence is abnormal, Quinn said.

“I wouldn’t classify them as Boy Scouts,” he said. “But, generally, the public doesn’t have much reason to fear them.”

The Bandidos, like most other outlaw groups, had been suffering from a decline of membership in recent years, as members age and new ones are slow to join, Quinn said. But given the groups’ penchant for recruiting veterans, the recent wars in Iraq and Afghanistan may soon lead to a boost in membership.

“My guess is we’ll see them refilling their ranks,” he said.

Winterhalder, 59, began hanging out with the Bandidos in the late 1970s and ’80s and was a full member from 1997 to 2003, helping the club expand internationally.

In those days, fellow members of his Oklahoma chapter included a pediatrician and a few pensioners, he said. Winterhalder himself ran a successful construction management company. He’d work his job during the week, then take off on his motorcycle on weekends to visit Bandidos in other cities and party with them, at times logging 400 miles a weekend, he said.

Around 70% of his members held regular jobs during the week and partied on the weekends like him, Winterhalder said.

“Are there people in clubs who commit crimes? Yes. Are there people doing drugs? Yes,” he said.

“But it’s disorganized crime. It’s not like the Mafia.”

Law enforcement, however, paints a different picture. The FBI says the Bandidos are involved in transporting and distributing cocaine and marijuana and are involved in the production, transportation and distribution of methamphetamine.

In a gang threat assessment released last year, the Texas Department of Public Safety classified the Bandidos as a “Tier 2” gang, along with the Bloods,

Crips and Aryan Brotherhood of Texas.

Earlier this decade, the Waco chapter of the Bandidos was made up mostly of former members of the military, including at least two ex-Army Rangers and one ex-Delta Force operator, according to a former Bandidos member. He asked that his name be withheld to avoid retaliation from the gang. The members used their military training and tactics to intimidate rival gangs, he said.

“I wouldn’t classify them as Boy Scouts.

But, generally, the public doesn’t have much reason to fear them.”

James Quinn, a University of North Texas professor who has studied and written about outlaw motorcycle gangs

For cash, members moved marijuana and methamphetamine from Mexico through Texas and dealt in loan sharking and other illicit ventures, raising “hundreds of thousands of dollars” a year, the ex-member said.

Bandidos went everywhere heavily armed and violent clashes were common — against rival gangs, drug dealers and one another.

During his five-year tenure

with the gang, the ex-member said, he attended more than 40 funerals of fellow members.

Members are a mix of Anglo and Hispanic. The San Antonio chapter, for example, has been predominantly Hispanic, he said.

In Texas alone, the Bandidos have chapters in Corpus Christi, San Antonio, Houston, Austin, Waco, Dallas, Fort Worth, Lubbock, Amarillo and El Paso, covering nearly every corner of the state and blending in with society, he said.

“They’re everywhere,” the exmember said. “They’re like ghosts.”

Despite the illicit activity, Bandidos pride themselves on keeping a low profile and avoiding attention from law enforcement, not hesitating to rid their ranks of risky members, he said. A common refrain among members: “Three Bandidos could keep a secret if two are dead.”

Steve Cook, a police detective from Independence, Mo., got to know the Bandidos well during a yearlong undercover assignment in the Kansas City area. He and a group of other undercover agents created a fake motorcycle gang and posed as a potential “support group” for the Bandidos — a gang willing to ally itself with the larger outlaw group.

“They’re far more organized than you’d think,” he said.

“They’re very sophisticated.”

Spooked Iraqi forces flee Ramadi

WASHINGTON Iraqi security forces fled Ramadi without putting up a fight, despite holding as much as a 10-to-1 advantage over Islamic State militants, according to two senior U.S. defense officials.

The officials, who spoke on condition of anonymity because they weren’t authorized to discuss key details of the battle, said the primary blame in Ramadi rested with Iraqi security forces.

Insurance is major hurdle v CONTINUED FROM 1B

of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

In 2012, physicians wrote 259 million prescriptions for painkillers, enough to give a bottle of pills to every adult in the USA, Frieden said. Nearly 2 million Americans are now addicted to prescription pain pills and 517,000 are addicted to heroin, to which many people turn when they can no longer access painkillers.

Injection drug use has fueled an outbreak of HIV in rural Indiana, a nationwide surge in hepatitis C infections, as well as an increase in the number of babies born addicted to drugs.

And the death rate from drug overdoses more than doubled from 1999 to 2013, according to the CDC. The bulk of these deaths involve opiates, a class of drugs that includes both illegal drugs such as heroin, as well as prescription painkillers such as morphine and Vicodin.

Mike McCrorken says he began smoking marijuana at age 12 and graduated to heroin by 14. His mother and stepfather often injected drugs with him.

“I tried to get help so many times growing up,” said McCrorken, of New Haven, Conn. “Getting into detox was always difficult because there were never any beds available.”

The wait for a spot in a detoxification program ranged from days to weeks, McCrorken says.

He was never able to abstain from drugs that long. “If I had to wait, without a doubt, I was getting high,” he said.

McCrorken finally got into treatment when he was 19, after the death of his stepfather. He and his mother heard his stepfather collapse behind a locked bathroom door. McCrorken kicked the door down and found

his stepfather on the floor, bleeding and unconscious from a heroin overdose.

“Before we called the police,” McCrorken said, “we did the drugs left in his pocket.”

A GROWING CRISIS

People from across the political spectrum are calling for the country to step up its fight against opiate abuse.

The Obama administration in March announced a three-part plan to combat the opiate epidemic, calling for $133 million in new spending, including an expansion of treatment with medications approved by the Food and Drug Administration.

Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse, DR.I., and Sen. Robert Portman, ROhio, also have introduced a bill to expand addiction treatment, particularly therapies that use medications that reduce cravings and symptoms of withdrawal.

These treatments are currently used by only a fraction of patients with opiate addictions. Medicaid programs in at least 17 states don’t pay for long-term methadone treatment, according to the Legal Action Center.

Sen. Edward Markey, D-Mass., also has introduced legislation aimed at expanding treatment for patients and educating doctors about safely prescribing opiates.

Two landmark laws aimed to expand insurance coverage for substance abuse treatment.

The Affordable Care Act requires that insurance plans include substance abuse and mental health treatment. A 2008 law, which took full effect last year, mandates that insurers put substance abuse and mental health care on par with medical treatment. Those laws haven’t helped everyone, however.

A recent report from the National Alliance on Mental Illness

found that patients continue to be denied care more often for substance abuse than for other medical issues.

People who need addiction treatment face insurance obstacles, said Kelly Clark, presidentelect of the American Society of Addiction Medicine. Although there are a number of medications that can reduce cravings and ease withdrawal symptoms, many insurance plans limit the doses that patients can receive or the length of time that people can take them. Studies show that people with private insurance are three to six times less likely to receive addiction treatment than people with public insurance, such as Medicaid.

to have a high school diploma, she said.

SEARCHING FOR SOLUTIONS

States could make it easier for people to get treatment by requiring insurance plans to offer comprehensive coverage of addiction treatment, Feinstein said.

But the stigma against addiction leaves many Americans unwilling to fund it, advocates say.

While scientists describe addiction as a brain disease, onethird of Americans say addiction is caused by a lack of willpower or self-control, according to a 2008 survey by the Columbia center.

Addiction costs nearly $468 billion a year. Only 2 cents of every dollar spent on addiction

Only 2 cents of every dollar spent on addiction goes to prevention or treatment.

In the days leading up to its fall, a combination of spectacular car bomb attacks, the ambush of an Iraq army patrol and marginal weather spooked the Iraqi forces.

The trigger might have been a minor sandstorm that prompted Iraqi commanders to believe that U.S. warplanes would not be able to bomb Islamic State targets.

A phone call to U.S. officials could have cleared up the misunderstanding, said one official.

Iraqi commandos, soldiers and police officers panicked when they thought they wouldn’t be protected by U.S. warplanes, one official said, and abandoned their posts. They left behind U.S.-supplied vehicles and weapons now in the hands of the militants.

The fall of Ramadi last weekend, coming days after the Pentagon declared Iraqi forces in control and holding much of the western Iraqi city, came as a major blow to the U.S. strategy to train and assist local forces in the fight against extremists from the Islamic State, also known as ISIL. The capture of the capital of Anbar province, 70 miles west of Baghdad, has increased calls for greater U.S. participation in the fight against the Islamic State.

President Obama, in an interview with The Atlantic magazine, called Ramadi a setback but blamed its fall on Iraqi security forces who hadn’t been trained or backed by American troops and said it would not prompt a change in U.S. policy.

National Center on Addiction and Substance Abuse at Columbia University

There also aren’t enough doctors to provide substance abuse treatment, said Emily Feinstein, director of health law and policy at the National Center on Addiction and Substance Abuse at Columbia University.

Even when substance abuse treatment is available, the quality of care is often low, Feinstein said. Many addiction programs use unproven therapies. According to a 2012 report from the Columbia addiction center, “only a small fraction of individuals receive interventions or treatments consistent with scientific knowledge about what works.”

The bulk of addiction treatment is provided by counselors, Feinstein said. While many are extremely dedicated, they don’t have medical training. In some states, they aren’t even required

goes to prevention or treatment; the rest pays for expenses like hospital care, jails and courts, according to a 2009 report from the Columbia addiction center.

Yet studies clearly show that prevention and treatment pay off, said Keith Humphreys, a researcher at the Department of Veterans Affairs and a professor of psychiatry at Stanford University Medical Center.

Every dollar invested saves $4-$7 in less drug-related crime, criminal justice courts and thefts, according to the National Institute on Drug Abuse. While one year of methadone costs $4,700, a year in prison costs $18,400.

Substance abuse treatment “is a really good deal for the taxpayer,” Humphreys said. “But it shouldn’t have to be. We should do it out of humanity.”

NATION/WORLD ON POLITICS

Senate blocks Patriot Act extension At issue is feds’ mass collection of citizens’ phone records

Erin Kelly USA TODAY

More candidates are poised to join the 2016 presidential field in the coming week.

Former Pennsylvania senator Rick Santorum and former New York governor George Pataki have announcements planned on the GOP side, as does former Maryland governor Martin O’Malley for the Democrats.

More news from the world of politics: WASHINGTON

IOWA STRAW POLL NOT GETTING MUCH LOVE Mike Huckabee became the latest Republican presidential candidate to announce he was skipping the Iowa Straw Poll. “I have concluded this year’s Iowa Straw Poll will serve only to weaken conservative candidates and further empower the Washington ruling class and their handpicked candidates,” Huckabee wrote in an opinion piece in The Des Moines Register.

Former Florida governor Jeb Bush had already decided he would skip the event scheduled for Aug. 8. All eyes will now be on Florida Sen. Marco Rubio and Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, whose decisions on whether to participate will likely determine how much relevance the straw poll has.

WASHINGTON Three key sections of the Patriot Act are set to expire on June 1 unless the Senate resolves a stalemate with the House over the future of the sweeping anti-terrorism law.

The Senate early Saturday blocked a bill that would have extended the provisions for two months, leaving the leadership in a tough spot as the deadline loomed and Congress prepared to

take a week-long recess for the Memorial Day holiday.

The bill failed on a procedural vote, not garnering the required 60 votes to move forward.

Afterward, Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., repeatedly tried to push forward shorter extensions that would allow the bill to expire later in June, but Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., led the objections to that effort.

McConnell then said he would reconvene the Senate on May 31, just hours before the expiration, in hopes that lawmakers would come to an agreement.

McConnell ran down the clock this month, hoping to persuade senators to renew the Patriot Act as it is rather than risk the law’s

CLINTON SETS DATE FOR FIRST RALLY The Hillary Clinton 2016 campaign, which has had a low-key rollout so far, will enter a new phase next month. “Get excited: Hillary will be making her official campaign announcement speech at the first big event of her campaign on June 13th,” she tweeted on Thursday.

Since announcing her second White House bid on April 12, Clinton has focused on small events and roundtable discussions with voters in key earlyvoting states.

FOX NEWS TO CAP FIRST GOP DEBATE BASED ON POLLS With a continually growing Republican presidential field, one obvious question that’s been raised is how will debate organizers decide whom to invite.

Fox News Channel, which hosts the first Republican debate scheduled for Aug. 6 in Cleveland, announced its criteria last week. In a release, Fox said that in order to participate candidates will have to register in the top 10 of the average of the five most recent polls by “major, nationally recognized organizations that use standard methodological techniques” by Aug. 4 at 5 p.m. ET. More than 10 candidates could be invited based on ties, and the network says it will provide coverage on the day of the debate to candidates who do not qualify. CNN, which hosts a debate on Sept. 16, also announced its criteria last week.

The House vote came just a week after a federal appeals court ruled that the NSA’s bulk collection of phone data is illegal and is not what Congress intended when it passed the Patriot Act after the 9/11 terrorist attacks.

Lacking the support to advance a straight renewal of the Patriot Act, McConnell asked senators to approve a two-month extension of the law to give him more time to try to reach a compromise between security hawks and privacy rights advocates. He also agreed to allow a vote on the USA Freedom Act, a measure President Obama supports.

But Democrats and libertarian-leaning Republicans pushed back, arguing that the existing law violates Americans’ privacy rights and has not been effective at catching terrorists. They called for the Senate to pass a Houseapproved bill that would rewrite Section 215 of the Patriot Act to end the National Security Agency’s mass collection of phone records from millions of Americans not suspected of any terrorist activity. That bill, the USA Freedom Act, passed the House 338-88 on

A bruising Democratic primary could play in Kirk’s favor. The senator told the Chicago Sun Times he’d rather face off against Zopp in the general election.

“Zopp is an easier candidate for me to defeat. … Because she’s not as well known,” he said. “(Duckworth) has a great story to tell because she’s given a lot to this country.”

War veteran Tammy Duckworth, left, was the early favorite, but Andrea Zopp, right, also has joined the Senate race.

WORLD

The newest micro country is born No other nation has yet recognized Liberland, near Croatia and Serbia Eric J. Lyman

Special for USA TODAY BEZDAN,

SERBIA Turns out founding a new country isn’t easy.

Vít Jedlička, a Czech politician, commodities trader and activist, wants to establish the libertarian city-state of Liberland on what he says is a small, uninhabited patch of land left unclaimed after the breakup of Yugoslavia. The state would mostly inhabit the western shore of the Danube River between current-day Croatia and Serbia.

But the going has been tough.

So far, no country will officially recognize Liberland, and officials in Croatia have been actively hostile. Potential settlers have been warned they could be arrested if they set foot on the land, and multiple attempts to reach the territory have been foiled. Last weekend, Jedlička was detained with a group of supporters.

Most residents in nearby communities are unaware of the plans, and few take them seriously. “Is it a real thing?” said Ana Juric, 18, in Batina, Croatia, just upriver from the area claimed as Liberland. “Wow, I thought someone was making up a story about this.”

If it’s established, the 3-squaremile state would be the world’s third-smallest country, larger only than the Vatican City and the principality of Monaco.

“Can they really do that?” Ruža Lukic, 33, a store worker from across the Danube near Bezdan, Serbia, asked about the creation of Liberland.

Niklas Nikolassen, a Danish bitcoin trader living in Switzerland who backs the Liberland movement, said they can. Liberland is seeking to use the homestead principle, which states unclaimed and undeveloped land can be legally claimed by any group willing to develop it, he said.

Many colonies founded by European powers in the past, including the 13 colonies that became the United States, were established using a version of the homestead principle. Nikolassen said the land he envisions blossoming into a “Singapore of Europe” would win its neighbors over through trade.

“Up until now, nobody wanted to develop this land, so why should they care if we develop it now?” he said. “I think that once

Liberland President Vít Jedlička hands out first citizenships.

MICRONATIONS OF THE WORLD Liberland is among a long line of micronations, some serious attempts at establishing an alternative state and others less so. As many as 100 have been created since the middle of the last century. Here are a few interesting ones: Principality of Sealand:

Established in 1967 on a World War II-era anti-aircraft platform just beyond the U.K.’s territorial waters. It is home to a secure Web-hosting facility.

the locals start to understand the benefits of having a dynamic economy nearby, they will tell the politicians that this is to their advantage.”

But that could take a while.

The land has no connections for electricity, water or sewage. The lone structure is a single-family house abandoned in the 1980s, when the area was still part of Yugoslavia. The area is not connected to anything by road, meaning the best way to get there is by river, making it easy for officials to keep potential settlers at bay.

That hasn’t curbed interest in the project. Jedlička said more than 300,000 people have applied to become citizens of Liberland.

They’re attracted by the prospect of a haven of small government and low taxes in the heart of Europe. Enthused architects have already drawn up plans for the layout of Liberty City, the tentative name for the capital, along with designs for coinage.

The path to nationhood is not nearly as clear today as it was when large parts of the world were as-yet undiscovered, or when colonies in the Americas and in Africa rose up to declare themselves independent of their colonial masters.

Depending on how it is defined, the last country to have been created by declaration was Israel in 1948. Other countries founded since then — South Sudan in 2011, Serbia in 2006, East Timor in 2002 or Eritrea in 1993 — have largely been the result of civil wars or independence movements.

None of those examples is a good parallel for Liberland, which has no population and whose would-be citizens are bickering online over what steps Jedlička and other leaders should take.

When the initial plans to begin work on the territory were scuttled by Croatian officials earlier this month, Jedlička, three dozen supporters and a handful of journalists relocated to Serbia where they ate lunch at a local grilled meat restaurant, reworked their plans and handed out the first few honorary citizenships among those gathered.

A few days later, around half-adozen supporters managed to land on a small island in the Danube that is part of the would-be Liberland, where they set up tents and spent the night. Jedlička declared that an important step and said he remains confident of success, despite recent setbacks.

“The key for us is to get recognized,” the would-be founding father said. “We’re in contact with about 50 embassies, including the U.S., Serbia and Russia, to lobby for recognition.”

Closing of Aboriginal areas sparks protests Australia cites social problems, costs Lauren Williams

Special for USA TODAY SYDNEY Government moves to close remote indigenous communities because of alleged social problems and the cost of maintaining them is triggering a new wave of protests planned for this week across Australia.

Western Australia’s government said it can no longer afford to subsidize basic services to communities in the state’s rugged and sprawling Outback. The government also said the communities are plagued by problems such as alcohol and drug abuse, high levels of child sex abuse and low school attendance.

So far, the government has closed one community, Oombulgurri, home to roughly 100 people. Last November, it shuttered its single shop, hospital and school, cut off water and electricity, and bulldozed the settlement after evicting the last remaining residents.

Aboriginal groups point to their spiritual connection to the land that is legally recognized, and they say the government should pay to eradicate the social problems it claims exist rather than close communities.

The groups also contend that the real reason the government is preparing to evict indigenous populations is to make way for uranium and coal mining.

“This is white man’s greed,” said Jenny Monroe, an Aboriginal community leader, who accused the government of creating “victims of trauma.”

“Our law is the law of the land, not the laws of the illegitimate occupiers,” she said. “They have been doing this for 227 years, and calling it protection.”

Last November, Western Australia Premier Colin Barnett said, “We are probably going to see certainly over 100, maybe 150 remote communities close,” which would result in the resettlement of thousands of residents.

Prime Minster Tony Abbott backed the move, telling national radio it was not the taxpayers’ job to “subsidize lifestyle choices.”

The comments enraged Aboriginal leaders, prompting mass rallies in Sydney, Perth and Melbourne.

On May 1, more than 10,000 people marched in Melbourne’s central business district, temporarily shutting down the city. Rallies were also held in Los Angeles, London, Berlin and Christchurch, New Zealand. New protests are planned for Tuesday and again June 26.

Since the protests, the government has backed away from the number of communities it will shut, saying they will be closed through a process of “consultation” with Aboriginal leaders to improve livelihoods.

“This is no longer a story about

Demonstrators march May 1 in Melbourne, Australia, to protest government plans to close some remote Aboriginal communities. More rallies against the plans will be held this week.

a potential hit list of 150 communities to close,” said Michael Tetlow, a spokesman for Aboriginal Affairs Minister Peter Collier.

“It’s a long-term project that will take years and has no end point.”

That change in policy has not mollified critics. “These people are on traditional lands. They

don’t want to be relocated all over again,” said Ken Canning, one of the protest organizers. He called the closures “attempted genocide.”

Western Australia Police Commissioner Karl O’Callaghan said the communities are dysfunctional and dangerous.

“The way these communities are set up at the moment, I cannot guarantee the safety of children,” he said.

Anthony Watson, chairman of the Kimberley Land Council, an Aboriginal land management and culture group, complained that there has been inadequate sup-

port for those displaced.

“There was no plan to look after those people; they were just dumped on the fringes of town.

Where is the housing, where are the jobs?” Watson asked.

While admitting that problems exist in the communities, Watson questioned the motivation behind the government plan, noting that mining companies frequently survey the land occupied by communities.

“A lot of our families are buried on these lands,” he added. “These places have special meaning. You have to wonder about their motivations.”

SUMMER STARTS WITH MOSQUITO INVASION Weather conditions can affect mosquito behavior, with the warmth and dampness of summer typically marking the pests’ peak season. For mosquitoes, wetter is better, so heavy rains after drought conditions and very high tides can also trigger mosquito blooms.

Since they’re susceptible to drying out, most mosquitoes spend sunny days in shady, humid locations.

MOSQUITOES BOOMING IN THE MIDWEST-EASTERN STATES The top 20 rankings are based on the number of customers who bought mosquito-control services from Orkin Pest Control in 2014.

THE LIFE OF A MOSQUITO

MOSQUITOES CAN BE DEADLY

There are four stages in a mosquito’s brief life.

Most mosquitoes don’t carry disease. Those that do are called vectors. Among vector-borne diseases: West Nile virus, encephalitis, malaria, dengue fever and chikungunya in humans, or heartworm parasites in dogs.

As of Jan. 13, 2015, 47 states and the District of Columbia have reported West Nile virus infections in people, birds or mosquitoes in 2014.

Females can lay eggs one at a time, or attach them together to form “rafts.”

When inundated with water, the eggs will hatch into larvae within 48 hours.

THE WEST NILE VIRUS: HOW IT SPREADS TO HUMANS

1

Larvae gather food to develop into pupae. How well they develop depends on nutrition and temperature.

70% to 80% of people who become infected do not develop symptoms.

PUPA

Larvae transform into adults. This is a non-feeding period (like a butterfly cocoon).

ADULT

Females and males mate.

The females go to feed on plant nectars for energy, then obtain a blood meal to build up egg production.

Then the cycle starts all over again. Males usually live a week; females generally live two to three weeks.

Asian Tiger mosquitoes — so called for their distinctive black-andwhite-striped coloration — are an exotic species that first appeared in the continental U.S. in 1985. It is an aggressive biter and is active during the day.

IN THE HOT SEAT SILK ROAD REGRETS After not testifying at his trial, convicted Silk Road “darknet” mastermind Ross Ulbricht late Friday broke his public silence about the sprawling electronic drug-trafficking site he founded and ran, writing that it “turned out to be a very naive and costly idea that I deeply regret.”

In a pre-sentencing letter submitted to U.S. District Judge Katherine Forrest, Ulbricht wrote that “Silk Road was supposed to be about giving people the freedom to make their own choices, to pursue their own happiness, however they individually saw fit.”

“What it turned into was, in part, a convenient way for people to satisfy their drug addictions,” added Ulbricht.

“While I still don’t think people should be denied the right to make this decision for themselves, I never sought to create a site that would provide another avenue for people to feed their addictions.”

Facing at least 20 years in prison and potentially far longer at his scheduled May 29 sentencing, Ulbricht, 30, asked Forrest for mercy, writes USA TODAY’s Kevin McCoy. USA SNAPSHOTS©

Mandakini Gahlot Special for USA TODAY NEW DELHI , INDIA

When Narendra Modi became prime minister a year ago on a promise to revive India’s once-sparkling economy, inflation was running at 9% and economic growth had slowed to less than 5% — half the pace of two years earlier.

Today, inflation is down to 5%, and the International Monetary Fund forecasts India’s economy will grow 7.5% this year, outpacing China’s growth for the first time since 1999.

That turnaround is winning praise from an increasingly influential business community, which helped Modi and his Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) win the first outright governing majority in three decades.

“The five years before Prime Minister Modi took over were really bad,” said Vineet Mittal, vice chairman of Mumbai-based Welspun Renewables, a wind and solar energy company.

“When we traveled abroad on investor roadshows, we wasted a lot of time allaying doubts,” he added.

Mittal was among a delegation of Indian business leaders who joined Modi on recent trips to Germany and China to spread the word that India is open for business.

India’s $2 trillion economy will remain much smaller than China’s $10 trillion powerhouse for years to come. But, boosted by low oil prices — the country imports 80% of its oil — the world’s largest democracy and its young, skilled population have plenty of room to grow.

During his first year in office, the Indian prime minister visited 19 countries on trade missions, including an appearance before an American-Indian audience at Madison Square Garden in New York. He also has visited China, Germany and France. Everywhere, he paints India as welcoming investors.

“I am here to assure the German companies that India is now a changed country,” Modi said at the Hannover Trade Fair in April.

His remarks were aimed at puncturing long-held views of India as a country with a byzantine, bloated bureaucracy and rigid regulations that make it exceedingly difficult to do business in the country.

On Tuesday, Modi pledged to change India’s tax system. On a trip to South Korea, he told business leaders the government has already addressed tax issues affecting foreign investors and would focus now on making the tax system “more stable, predictable and transparent.”

Modi has specifically pushed to

This year, under his “Make in India” policy, he helped persuade Korean giant Samsung and Europe’s Airbus to open new factories in his nation.

With around 1 million young Indians entering the workforce every month, creating jobs is a constant priority.

Some analysts remain skeptical of Modi’s goal to turn India into a manufacturing hub for for-

eign companies. “I am not entirely sure whether ‘Make in India’ will lead to the right kind of growth or whether it will be sustainable in the long run,” said N.R. Bhanumurthy of the National Institute of Public Finance and Policy in New Delhi. “It makes us too dependent on external demands. India has a huge market and the prime minister should capitalize on that and address the country’s demands.”

Still, businessmen such as Mittal like to focus on the bottom line. For him, good times have arrived.

Pouring quarters into Pac-Man 35 years ago cost you a whole lot more than 25 cents.

The revolutionary and iconic video game first stormed arcades exactly 35 years ago Friday. But you chewed up more than just quarters and ghosts when directing the yellow pie-shaped character through mazes. You were actually devouring a part of your future wealth.

Had you dropped 25 cents into a brokerage account on May 22, 1980 — rather than into that ohso-alluring Pac-Mac coin slot — that quarter would have been worth $1,818.27 (in 2015 dollars) had you bought and held the best stock in the Standard & Poor’s

500 instead.

Shares of staffing firm Robert Half are up 727,208% since May 22, 1980, according to data from S&P Capital IQ. Not buying this single stock — and playing a single game of Pac-Man instead — cost you $633.25 in lost opportunity in 1980 dollars.

But how many people actually stopped with just one game of Pac-Man? After all, you had to beat the high score, right? Had you invested $100 in the top stock — rather than paying Pac-Man — you’d have $727,307.70 today.

That’s the equivalent of $253,298 in 1980s dollars.

What if you’re not a great stock picker? You didn’t have to be. Had you dropped 25 cents into a brokerage account on May 22, 1980, and simply bought the S&P 500, that quarter would have been

worth $4.88 today (in 2015 dollars). In other words, plopping that quarter in the game didn’t cost you 25 cents at the time — it cost you $1.70 in lost opportunity in 1980 dollars (adjusted for inflation).

Granted, $4.88 might not seem like much — but you didn’t play just one game of Pac-Man either. Let’s say you dropped $100 on PacMan. Trust me — it wasn’t that hard to do — that’s just 400 spins through the maze. Had you invested that bucket of coins in the S&P 500, you’d be sitting on $1,952 today. That “investment” in Pac-Man actually cost you $679.82 in 1980 dollars.

If you want a “high score” with your money — the stock market is just about the only game in town.

RETIREMENT RETIREMENT MAY BE YOUR BEST OPPORTUNITY to maximize time spent doing what you really like to do, says psychologist Mary Languirand, 57, co-author of How to Age in Place, written with her husband, Robert Bornstein. “Some people know exactly what they want to do, and where, and with whom. Others — often those who had to devote a lot of time and effort to responsibilities and duties that didn’t necessarily make them happy — need time and ‘permission’ to break old habits and create new patterns.”

How to make a smooth transition to a new life

THINKSTOCK

Many people have the time of their lives in retirement, while others feel adrift, especially when they are in transition to their new life. About two-thirds of retired Baby Boomers say they had challenges adapting to this change, one survey showed. Among the toughest parts: missing the day-to-day social connections with colleagues, Nanci Hellmich getting used to a new and different routine, and finding ways to give meaning and purpose to their @nancihellmich USA TODAY days. USA TODAY asked several retirement experts for their best advice for making the transition to retirement and making the most of it. to retirement takes time, says Nancy Schlossberg, 85, author of Revitalizing Retirement and Retire Smart, Retire Happy. She was a professor of counseling at the University of Maryland.

Any transition that changes your roles, routines, relationships and assumptions about yourself and the world takes awhile, she says. “You are leaving a life you know and moving into a new world. It will take time to get a new life. If you don’t understand that, you can get very frustrated.”

You’re going to have a roller coaster of emotions, she says. “Be patient with yourself and realize that the way you feel on the ‘R’ day, your retirement day, is not going to be the way you feel a year from now, two years from now or five years from now.”

DOING YOUR HOMEWORK may help safeguard the resources that SOCIAL SECURITY NEEDS FIXING

“The first pillar of old-age support, namely our national Social Security system, is running into the red,” says Olivia Mitchell, a professor at The Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania and executive director of the Pension Research Council. “This represents big trouble.”

Mitchell says “serious reform must be implemented ASAP to ensure that those workers in the bottom half of the wage distribution will receive Social Security benefits that will be critical to them in retirement.”

Her solution: Reduce the growth rate of benefits by pegging it to price inflation, not wages. When you’re working, the Social Security Administration calculates your future benefit based how fast wages rise. But your actual benefit, when you claim it, is based on inflation (CPI). Wages tend to grow faster than inflation, so switching from wages to inflation would reduce the overall benefits to be paid out.

“This in and of itself will return the system to balance, albeit with some transition financing,” says Mitchell.

FEW THINK THOUGHTFULLY ABOUT WHEN TO CLAIM SOCIAL SECURITY

“The biggest problem is that (Americans) don’t consider the importance of choosing the age at which they retire,” says Alicia Munnell, director of the Center for Retirement Research at Boston College. “If they can postpone retirement from 62 to 70, their monthly Social Security benefit goes up by 76%, their 401(k) assets nearly double, and they reduce by eight years the length of the period over which they need to stretch their retirement nest egg.”

will let you age in place, Languirand says. “Money isn’t everything, but money surely matters.

Get your finances in order, your living space ready and your emergency plans firmly set. Then you can think about other things.”

PLAN TO GET OUT and be with others. Research consistently shows that people who spend time with others are healthier and happier than those who are isolated, Languirand says. “Don’t be a hermit. Connecting with others can take many different forms, and it works best if you do it in a way that fits your style.”

FIND YOUR PASSION, says Marie Langworthy, 69, a retired school administrator and co-author of Shifting Gears to Your Life and Work After Retirement. She recommends asking yourself: “What is my temperament?

What are my skills? What are my

values? What are my interests?”

Ask yourself: “If I could do anything in the world, what would it be?” she suggests.

Those questions will help you use your time in a meaningful way in retirement, whether it’s through employment, volunteer work, travel, an entrepreneurial endeavor or other activities, she says.

It may take you in a totally different direction or in the same direction. “From a practical point of view, get on LinkedIn and be active on LinkedIn,” Langworthy says.

“Often people who retire rush into the next thing and end up doing the same thing they’ve always done, sometimes out of fear and sometimes out of necessity to earn money,” she says. “But if you have the time and can afford it, take the time to uncover your passions and build a meaningful life for yourself.”

PROBLEMS AMERICANS HAVE WITH RETIREMENT

When it comes to retirement in the U.S., there’s no shortage of problems. People haven’t saved enough money for their golden years.

Robert Powell They’re going to Special for outlive their USA TODAY assets. They won’t be able to afford health care in retirement. And the list goes on and on and on.

But these problems are not without solutions. Here’s a look at what experts say are the biggest problems facing those saving for and/or living in retirement — and how to solve those problems.

STAY AS HEALTHY AS YOU CAN.

There are factors you cannot control that can have a huge impact on your life, Languirand says.

“You get the genetic cards you’re dealt, and some ailments cannot yet be fixed or cured. That said, you do have some control over your lifestyle choices. Be the healthiest person you can be, in spite of any medical issues you have. It’ll enhance your quality of life, no matter what you opt to do.”

BE PREPARED FOR THE SHOCK

when you realize you have a new identity, Schlossberg says. There can be emotional ups and downs between the time you leave your work identity and find your new identity. You can think of it as what you put on your business card or your tagline under your email signature, she says.

Schlossberg says the first time she had to tell someone she was a

ACCESS TO EMPLOYER-SPONSORED RETIREMENT PLANS

Experts say that only one-half of American workers have retirement plans, such as a 401(k), at work. And that lack of access is a problem, particularly for parttime workers and those at small employers, says Jeffrey Brown, a professor at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.

No retirement plan equals no retirement savings, according to research from the Employee Benefit Research Institute.

To address this problem, Brown wants the Labor Department to 1) make it simple and low-cost for small employers to offer plans, 2) make sure that

TAKE AN HONEST LOOK at your situation and find ways to make the best of it, says Art Koff, 80, founder of RetiredBrains.com and author of the new e-book Lifetime Planning Guide.

Most Americans need some kind of additional income over and above Social Security benefits and income from retirement savings and pensions, he says.

“If that’s the case for you, then consider looking for ways to work part time or take a temporary or seasonal job; perhaps work from home or even start a small business on your own.”

If you are someone who is having difficulty with the transition because you’ve been active and challenged during your working years, then also consider one of the many volunteer opportunities available to retirees, or even go back to college to take the courses you always wanted to take but never had the time for, Koff suggests.

non-discrimination testing is not accidentally leading employers to leave part-timers out of the plan 3) promote multiple-employer plans and 4) establish auto-IRAs at the federal level.

LONGEVITY RISK IS REAL

Most Americans face the real possibility of longevity risk, the risk of living longer than they can afford given their assets, Mitchell says. Her solution: New insurance products are needed to help convert retirement savings into lifetime income, ideally with deferred participating annuity products, which pool longevity risk. At the moment, investors can purchase such products as deferred-income annuities, single-premium immediate annuities as well as qualified longevity annuity contracts (QLACs) to manage longevity risk.

Others share that point of view. “Couples beginning retirement have a problem previous generations would have envied,” said John Laitner, a professor at the University of Michigan and director of the Michigan Retirement Research Center. “Individuals of retirement age can now expect to live many years.”

And to cope with such longevity, Laitner says individuals should think about annuitizing at least part of their pension equity, which would provide protection against outliving their resources.

retired college professor, she couldn’t say the word “retired” to describe herself and instead said she was a consultant. Now she has bright-red business cards that say “Transitions Through Life ... tips, videos, speeches and more.” And she’s happy to say she’s retired.

Figuring out your new identity and how you are going to present yourself to the world takes time, she says.

NOT ENOUGH ANNUITY OPTIONS IN 401(K) PLANS

“Couples beginning retirement have a problem previous generations would have envied.

Individuals of retirement age can now expect to live many years.”

John Laitner, director of the Michigan Retirement Research Center

Workers who have access to an employer-sponsored retirement plan have plenty of investment options, but hardly any annuity options, Brown says. Having annuity options could help workers convert some of their retirement assets into guaranteed lifetime income.

To address this, Brown says, the Labor Department must go “much further in providing fiduciary comfort to plan sponsors so that they feel comfortable offering lifetime income products inside 401(k) plans.”

What’s more, Brown says he would like to see the lifetime income-disclosure rules become finalized “so that we can start to change the conversation from a focus on wealth accumulation and toward a focus on income.”

DON’T FORGET YOUR HOME EQUITY

Home equity can help solve retirement problems as well.

“Maintaining equity in one’s primary residence provides a place to live and a degree of hedging against inflation,” Laitner says.

“Equity in one’s residence tends to be protected against some government means-tested assistance. And, the equity can provide cash in the event of a surviving spouse’s illness.”

Kansas commit Vick gets positive reviews

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Basketball notes. ...

LaGerald Vick, who has committed to play basketball at Kansas University — likely starting in the 2015-16 season — continues to compete on this spring and summer’s Under Armour Association Circuit.

Vick, a 6-foot-5 senior combo guard from Douglass High in Memphis and Team Thad AAU, scored 28 points against the Indiana Hoosiers and 23 versus the Juice All-Stars in victories Saturday in West Chester, New York.

His 28-point outing came off 10-of-23 shooting, including 4-of-10 from three and 4-of-4 from the line. He also had four rebounds and two assists. Versus Juice All-Stars, he hit nine of 11 shots, including 4-of-6 shooting from three and 1-of-2 from the line.

“Vick firing on all cylinders. Pretty jump shot, active defender, can really create off dribble, pure scorer,” Rivals.com’s Eric Bossi wrote Saturday on Twitter.

On Friday, Vick scored 25 points and grabbed 10 rebounds in a tourney-opening victory over Supreme Court.

“LaGerald Vick was very, very good for Team Thad.

The recent commitment to Kansas far outplayed his current ranking of No. 137 in the class of 2016 while going for 25 points and 10 rebounds (Friday),” Bossi wrote at Rivals.com. “A thin and lanky shooting guard, Vick can really create for himself off the dribble, has quickness and he can shoot it from deep. He had his jumper working, got to the rim a bit and scored whenever he wanted. Most likely, he will skip heading to prep school and end up at Kansas as a class of 2015 prospect but a final decision on that hasn’t been made.” l

Maker update: Thon Maker’s guardian, Ed Smith, tells Zagsblog.com he hasn’t heard from KU “for a while.”

Maker is the 7-footer from Orangeville Prep in Mono, Ontario, who is talking about attending college second semester of the 201516 school year before entering the 2016 NBA Draft.

Smith said Indiana and Arizona State are talking about a year-and-a-half stay for Maker if he arrives in December.

“I don’t want to put a oneand-done on it. You finish high school, step one. When you’re ready and your body is ready for the pro game, step two,” mentor Smith told Zagsblog.com.

“There is no one-and-ahalf year plan in place. It is when he is ready. If it takes 31⁄2 years then so be it. The

FREE STATE HIGH’S SWIMMING AND DIVING TEAM CELEBRATES IN THE POOL after winning the 6A state championship Saturday in Topeka.

Free State girls claim 6A crown

By Bobby Nightengale bnightengale@ljworld.com

Topeka — After the final race of the Class 6A girls state swimming and diving championships on Saturday, Free State High junior Cierra Campbell looked at the time on the clock and immediately went over to the edge of the pool to hug senior Courtney Caldwell, who started crying.

The joys of a sweet, sweet victory.

The Firebirds completed an undefeated season by winning a state championship and broke a state record in their last race at the Capitol Federal Natatorium. It was the second state title in school history, also winning in 2009. They edged runnerup Shawnee Mission East, 424-399, to snap SM East’s five-year reign as champion.

The Firebirds took second at state for the past two years and had laser-like focus all season to make sure they reached their ultimate goal. They celebrated on the medal podium before holding hands and jumping into the pool.

“It was a perfect season, honestly,” Campbell said.

“Undefeated. It was like a perfect ending with my best friends who are seniors.

They were so proud.”

Caldwell added: “I touched (the wall), and it kind of all

hit me at once that it was my last race as a Firebird. It went so well. It was just perfect. It couldn’t have been better.”

Free State won seven of the 12 events, including all three relays. Caldwell won the 100 freestyle and backstroke, Campbell was first in the 200 freestyle, and junior Sydney Sirimongkhon-Dyck won a title in the 50 freestyle.

In the final race, the 400 freestyle relay — Caldwell, Cierra Campbell, Claire Campbell and Eliza Anderson — shattered the state record with a time of 3:30.00,

more than one second better than the previous record set in 2010 by Washburn Rural.

Before that last relay, team scores were announced, and the Firebirds knew they clinched a state title, as long as they didn’t get disqualified in the race.

“Courtney gave me a hug before the relay, and I almost started crying,” said Anderson, the Rhode Island signee who also took fourth in the 200 freestyle and fifth in the 100 backstroke. “But I was like, ‘No, you can’t do this to me! I have to swim first.’

“The fact that I won’t get to swim with these girls again.

I won’t get to swim for Free State or at this meet. There’s nothing like it.”

Caldwell, who won 13 state titles in her four-year career, broke her own state record in the 100 freestyle, which she set in prelims Friday. After finishing in a blistering 49.62 seconds, the North Carolina State signee received a long standing ovation from the crowd.

Texas high school safety chooses Jayhawks “

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

Kansas University football coach David Beaty was back on Twitter on Saturday, using his #neatdeal approach to tip his hand that the Jayhawks might have landed another commitment in the Class of 2016.

Turns out they did.

According to JayhawkSlant.com, Michael Clark, a two-star safety from Cedar Hill (Texas) High, orally pledged his services to Kansas on Saturday.

Clark, a 6-foot-2, 180-pound athlete known for his physical play and coverage skills, had long been on the radar of co-defensive coordinator Kenny

Perry, who spearheaded the movement to land Clark, most recently by making two visits to Cedar Hill this spring.

Clark told JayhawkSlant’s Jon Kirby that his connection with Perry and the history of Cedar Hill players (specifically Greg Brown, Dezmon Briscoe and Marcus Herford) enjoying their

time at KU helped him make up his mind.

“I talked to some of them,” Clark told Kirby.

“They loved their time at Kansas, and I wanted to join the family.”

Clark, who had received heavy interest of late from Kansas State, Houston, Utah State and Nevada, becomes the fifth player to commit to

KU in the 2016 class, joining offensive linemen Antione Frazier and Joe Malanga, linebacker Jayd Kirby and wide receiver Braylon Royal.

Nearly all of KU’s coaching staff has spent most of May on the road recruiting and continuing to hand out scholarship offers to athletes in both the 2016 and 2017 classes.

They loved their time at Kansas, and I wanted to join the family.”

scored 40 points, and Golden State made it look easy against Houston, routing the Rockets on Saturday night to take a 3-0 lead in the Western Conference finals.

The Warriors won the first two games by just five points combined. There would be no such drama in this one, with Curry leading them to a 26-point advantage in the second quarter.

Now the baby-faced MVP has Golden State just one victory away from its first trip to the NBA Finals since 1975. Game 4 is Monday night in Houston.

Curry was unstoppable, making seven three-pointers to break the NBA record for most threes in the playoffs in a season with 64.

MVP runner-up James Harden finished with 17 points behind 10-of-11 free-throw shooting, but made just three of 16 shots as the Rockets dropped three straight for the first time all season. Dwight Howard, who played despite a knee injury suffered in Game 1, had 14 points and 14 rebounds.

Draymond Green and Klay Thompson added 17 points apiece for the Warriors.

Curry had 37 points after three quarters and went to the bench for good with about 51⁄2 minutes remaining after his seventh three-pointer made it 103-73. He also had seven rebounds and five assists.

After coach Steve Kerr complained about turnovers in the last game, the Warriors had just one before halftime to help them run away with this one early.

The Rockets have rebounded from double-digit deficits in three of their eight wins this postseason, but this time they fell into a hole way too big to overcome. Especially when Harden’s shots weren’t falling.

The Warriors were in control of this one from the start and were up by 12 at the end of the first. But things got out of hand quickly when Curry heated up.

A pair of free throws by Harden cut the lead to nine points with about 6 minutes left in the quarter when Curry took over. He scored the next six points as part of a 16-5 run where he scored all but two of the Warriors points to push the lead to 54-34.

Concord, N.C. (ap) — Austin Dillon’s driving was good.

His celebration might have been even better.

Dillon reveled in his first win at his home track Saturday with head-first slide into the infield grass at Charlotte Motor Speedway. The 25-year-old Dillon passed Denny Hamlin with 15 laps remaining and went on to his second Xfinity Series victory of the season.

“I stuck (the slide) pretty good,” joked Austin, a former baseball player who played in the Little League World Series.

Dillon started on the pole and had the fastest car all day, leading the first 98 laps and 163 of 200 overall.

Hamlin finished second, nearly 3 seconds behind Dillon.

Kasey Kahne was third, followed by Regan Smith and Xfinity Series regular Darrell Wallace Jr. “I didn’t want to get out of this car (because) it drove so good,” Dillon said.

Points leader Chris Buescher was 11th, but was never in contention for the lead. He maintained a 4-point lead over Ty Dillon, who finished seventh.

It was Dillon’s fourth career series victory. He has seven top-five finishes in nine Xfinity starts this season.

Dillon also won this year at Las Vegas after leading 183 of 200 laps.

Dillon simply couldn’t be caught when his No. 33 Chevrolet had clean air.

He would regularly stretch his lead to more than four seconds during long stretches of green flag racing in the first half of the race.

“I thought it was pretty much a battle for second place all day,” Hamlin said. “He had an exceptionally strong car.”

Even Clint Bowyer, who was working as a Fox Sports analyst, seemed a little bored with Dillon extending his lead late in the race, remarking, “I don’t know about you guys, but I would like to see a caution right now.”

With 34 laps to go, Bowyer got his wish.

On a restart, things got interesting as Hamlin took the outside line and passed Dillon to take the lead for the first time, and Kahne boxed out Dillon to take over second place.

“I was just messing with my grandpa, I knew it would make his heart skip a beat,” Dillon joked as he looked over at car owner Richard Childress.

Sporting Kansas City scratched second-leading scorer Dom Dwyer just moments before the game because of a neck injury. Dwyer had four goals while starting and playing in all but 19 minutes of Kansas City’s first 11 games.

BOSTON RED SOX

TWO-DAY

right ankle sprain suffered in a Game 2 loss to the Cavaliers in the Eastern Conference finals Friday night. The Hawks already trail the best-of-seven series after losing the first two games at home. They now face an uphill climb without their starting shooting guard.

Korver was injured with a minute remaining in the third quarter when he caught his ankle under the Cavaliers’ Matthew Dellavedova while scrambling for a loose ball. He immediately left the game with what the team ruled a sprain.

X-rays done Friday night were negative.

Korver had a follow-up MRI and examination Saturday morning at Peachtree Orthopaedic Clinic that revealed the severity of the injury. Korver will see a foot and ankle specialist to determine the best course of action, which could include surgery. A date for that examination has yet to be determined.

“He is such a good teammate and he is such a competitor to not be there in the middle of this opportunity, in the middle of this series, you can just imagine it’s very, very difficult for him personally but more so for how much this team has done together, how much he’s been a part of that,” Hawks coach Mike Budenholzer said on a conference call Saturday.

Bulls leave coach Thibodeau hanging

In many ways, Tom Thibodeau and Bulls’ management are operating in a businessas-usual mode this offseason.

Thibodeau made clear his stance in the direct aftermath of the season-ending loss to the Cavaliers by saying, “until they tell me I’m not, I expect to be here.” And management has begun draft workouts and meetings at the Advocate Center while continuing player exit meetings.

Of course, this offseason is anything but business as usual.

The frayed relationship between Thibodeau and management is public knowledge throughout the NBA. And management’s annual evaluation process of Thibodeau is believed widely to be leading to a divorce despite the Bulls’ regular-season success and two years remaining on Thibodeau’s contract.

So what’s taking so long?

This is where the business-asusual model applies. Bulls’ management historically has been a deliberate, process-oriented decision-maker, dating to the days of Jerry Krause. There’s no deadline here, and management would be wise to see if the Pelicans or Magic show interest in Thibodeau, who sources said has an offset in his contract.

— not at first,” said Caldwell, who was selected as the Athlete of the Meet. “I got out (of the pool), and I was like, ‘I need to sit down.’ Then I was like, ‘Oh, wow, this is cool.’”

“She deserved that standing ovation,” said FSHS coach Annette McDonald, who earned Coach of the Year honors.

The Firebirds won their first two relays in dramatic fashion.

Caldwell, SirimongkhonDyck and freshmen Ava Cormaney and Alvena Walpole teamed to win the 200 medley relay, outreaching SM East by 0.04 seconds to open the meet. Then they broke their own state record in the 200 freestyle relay, which the school set in 2013, with Anderson, Claire Campbell, Cierra Campbell and Sirimongkhon-Dyck in 1:36.80, winning by 0.17 seconds.

Walpole added runnerup finishes in the 200 individual medley and 100 butterfly. Cierra Campbell finished second in the 500 freestyle, while Cormaney was fifth, and Anna McCurdy took seventh. Senior Alexa Malik also had a sixth-place finish in the 100 freestyle, and senior Haley Johnson took second place in the one-meter dive.

“We’ve had it as our goal for the past three years,” Anderson said of the state title. “The fact that we all stuck together.

Haley stepped up. Amazing. Her diving was incredible. We couldn’t do it without her. Every single day, that was like our goal in mind. We’d talk about it. After every meet, it would be like, ‘We’re one step closer.’ So the fact that it happened, that was awesome.”

“Everyone stepped up,” Caldwell added. “We crushed it. We didn’t just

“I was happy,” LHS coach Kent McDonald said. “We weren’t as sharp today as we were yesterday, but the girls still swam some of their best times. So I can’t complain at all.”

MAJOR-LEAGUE ROUNDUP

Triple play sparks Astros The Associated Press

American League Astros 3, Tigers 2 Detroit — Lance McCullers got Ian Kinsler to ground into a triple play in the fifth inning, and the Houston right-hander went on to earn his first career victory Saturday, leading the Astros over the Tigers.

Detroit led 2-1 in the fifth and had runners on first and second when Kinsler hit a grounder to third. Jonathan Villar stepped on the bag and threw to second, where Jose Altuve relayed the ball to first.

Concord, N.C. (ap) — Sentimentality can wait.

Jeff Gordon is not ready to focus on life after racing as his farewell tour arrives at the longest event on the NASCAR schedule.

Gordon, in what’s become a weekly line of questioning, was asked for his emotions running his last Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte Motor Speedway tonight.

“I think if this were my final race ever, it’d be different,” the four-time Sprint Cup champion said. “But I have a whole season ahead of me and that’s not where my mindset is at right now.”

For Gordon, the task is finding enough speed to compete at one of his favorite tracks. He will start 18th, well back in the pack behind pole sitter Matt Kenseth.

Gordon has won five times here, including three Coca-Cola 600s in a five-year span with victories in 1994, 1997 and 1998. He last win came in Charlotte’s fall race eight years ago and he’d love to wind up with one more checkered flag.

“A part of me wishes it was” Gordon’s final race, he said, “because this is a very special race and moment for me and I’m looking forward to that.”

Gordon, who turns 44 in August, removed some of the mystery about his future with Thursday’s announcement that he’d join the Fox Sports broadcast booth next season calling races for NASCAR’s Xfinity Series.

TV has long been in the back of his postracing plans and he has grown more comfortable, he says, with the three Xfinity events he called this season. Still, Gordon expects some very sharp tugs at his heart next Feb-

NOTE: No entry starting at the 18th, 23rd, 24th, 26th, 29th, 30th, 31st, 32nd and 33rd positions has won the race to date.

Lackey was not happy with the game ending early.

“It stinks really bad,” Lackey said. “There’s a lot of game left. In baseball they do things the same way for a long time.”

Jhonny Peralta doubled to lead off the Cardinals’ second and Volquez walked Randal Grichuk and Matt Adams to load the bases with none out.

Peralta scored on Yadier Molina’s grounder. Eric Hosmer doubled to begin the Kansas City fourth and scored on Salvador Perez’s single after Lackey walked Gordon intentionally to give the Royals a 3-1 lead.

“I realized it could be a five-inning game,” Cardinals manager Mike Matheny said. “That’s why we walked Gordon there.

Unfortunately it didn’t work out.

Volquez (4-3) gave up four hits and walked three. He gave up a run in the second, snapping a streak of 27 consecutive shutout innings by the Royals’ rotation.

Gordon homered in the second inning off John Lackey (2-3). Gordon is 7-for-14 with two home runs in his career against the right-hander.

“We’ll take it,” Gordon said of the rain-shortened victory. “We knew the weather was coming and it was going to be bad, so we wanted to make sure we had that lead after the fifth inning just to be sure. It wasn’t looking good on the radar. It was definitely in our minds.

“So it was good to get an early lead and keep it like that. Edinson did a good job of getting out

ST. LOUIS’ MATT HOLLIDAY IS HIT BY A PITCH thrown by Kansas City starter Edinson Volquez during the fifth inning of the Royals’ 3-2, rain-shortened victory Saturday in Kansas City, Missouri.

Kansas City, Mo. (ap) — Expecting some rain, the Kansas City Royals tried to rush their way through five innings to make it an official game and came away with a shortened win.

Alex Gordon hit a two-run homer, Edinson Volquez pitched six solid innings, and the Royals beat the St. Louis Cardinals 3-2 Saturday night in a game called in the sixth inning due to rain.

Volquez acknowledged he was rushing his throws with rain looming.

“I was kind of hurrying my throws a little bit,” Volquez said. “I knew the rain was coming. I was trying to get past the fifth inning. I did it, too.”

The Royals improved to 28-14, the best record in the majors. The game was stopped as Kansas City came to bat in the

JEFF GORDON WALKS TO HIS CAR DURING PRACTICE Saturday for today’s NASCAR Coca-Cola 600 Sprint Cup series race at Charlotte Motor Speedway in Concord, North Carolina. ruary when it’s time to go racing at the Daytona 500 and he is not lined up.

Gordon said he spoke this week with Fox broadcaster and NASCAR Hall of Famer Darrell Waltrip.

Waltrip explained how odd it felt the first time there was a driver’s meeting that he didn’t attend as a competitor.

“I won’t really know how that feels until I go through it,” he said. “But it’s going to be different.”

Other things to watch in today’s race:

JGR Weekend Joe Gibbs Racing got Charlotte’s two weeks of racing off to a strong start when Denny Hamlin won the All-Star Race last Saturday. On Thursday night, Matt Kenseth won the pole for the Coca-Cola 600 and led three JGR racers in the top five. Carl Edwards starts third and Hamlin is fifth.

Kenseth liked the way things are trending for his organization.

“It’s nice to have the speed and know that it’s there if you do the rest of the things right that you have a chance at winning,” he said.

Kyle Busch, the fourth JGR driver, will start 17th in his first points race since breaking his right leg and left foot at Daytona three months ago.

Harvick’s chances Kevin Harvick’s season combined with how well he races at Charlotte could lead to his third Coca-Cola 600 victory since 2011. Harvick has finished first or second in eight races this year. He has also ended in the top 10 in eight of his past nine races here.

“This is an important race as far as ones that you circle on the calendar,” he said. “The Coke 600 is definitely one of those that you want to win.”

Roush Fenway hope Greg Biffle qualified fourth to give struggling Roush Fenway Racing its best starting position of the season.

Biffle had the previous best of seventh at Kansas two weeks back and sees his latest run as progress.

But there’s a big difference between a fast lap and competing for a win after 600 miles.

Indianapolis (ap) — They call the Indianapolis 500 “The Greatest Spectacle in Racing” for its high speeds, rich history, enormous crowd and the take-your-breathaway competition.

This year, IndyCar hopes the 99th running of the event won’t be a spectacle because of a serious on-track incident.

Concern hangs over Indianapolis Motor Speedway after the cars of Helio Castroneves, Josef Newgarden and Ed Carpenter all went airborne during practice sessions in the 10 days leading up to today’s race. All three drivers walked away unscathed, but IndyCar officials scrambled on qualifying day for a solution.

All three drivers were driving Chevrolets, and the manufacturer worked with the series on adjustments to the bodywork of the cars, plus a reduction in horsepower before qualifying.

One day later, James Hinchcliffe suffered a lifethreatening injury when he slammed into the turn three wall at more than 220 mph and a broken piece of his suspension pierced his left thigh. Hinchcliffe’s accident was unrelated to the three cars that had gone

airborne, but one of IndyCar’s most popular drivers was rushed into surgery in critical condition and will miss today’s race.

The four wrecks have many wondering if today will see a safe race.

“This will never be a safe race — it’s an open wheel car going 230 mph over three and a half hours trying to win,” said Rahal Lanigan Letterman Racing driver Oriol Servia. “Safe is not really what defines it. It will never be. But I think it could be safer than what we’ll do Sunday.”

IndyCar officials aren’t certain what caused the three cars to lift off the track following mild crashes. Although some wanted to point to the new body kits Chevy and Honda are allowed to use this season, most drivers doubted the manufacturers were to blame.

And some have even grumbled that the wrecks cast an unfair pall over the race and created an unnecessary hysteria.

“I just think we need to be careful not to lose our heritage and the roots of what we do,” said KV Racing driver Sebastien Bourdais, who praised the safety efforts as long as it didn’t destroy “the

purpose and the reason of why we do things we do and how we do it.”

“People make mistakes, whether it is human mistakes, mechanical mistakes, it is part of what we do,” he said. “That needs to be respected because when you travel at the speeds we travel, things can go bad. When it goes bad, it shouldn’t be, ‘Oh my God, what just happened?’ What happened is what we do is dangerous.”

That sentiment is shared by most in today’s field. Race car drivers have always accepted that danger, death and disability are part of the profession, and most are able to overlook it when they pull on their helmet and climb into the car.

Asked if he’s expecting a “safe race” today, polesitter Scott Dixon was candid.

“I hope so, that’s all you can do,” said the driver from New Zealand. “We’ve always been at these speeds, or close to them, and accidents are going to happen. You just hope everyone will be safe.”

The only thing Dixon was certain of for today is that the race should be a thriller for drivers and fans.

LAWRENCE ARTISTS JOHN SEBELIUS, LEFT, AND JEROMY MORRIS HAVE COLLABORATED ON A SHOW, “MORE THAN MEETS THE EYE,” in which the two artists have combined their visions on various mixed-media pieces to be shown at Cider Gallery on May 29 through June 26.

“M

ore Than Meets the Eye.” Those who grew up in the 1980s might remember the phrase from “The Transformers” cartoons, in which giant robots waged battle by converting into vehicles and other machinery.

It’s also the name of an upcoming collaborative exhibition at the Cider Gallery, 810 Pennsylvania St., featuring the work of Lawrence artists John Sebelius and Jeromy Morris.

That the show shares its title with the “Transformers” tagline is no coincidence, says Morris, who together with Sebelius created about 45 mixed-media pieces over the past six months for the exhibition.

“Some of the pieces that I’d put into the collaboration between us had been sitting around for three years. I’d toss it to him and all of a sudden, it’s finished,” Morris says. “It’s a transformation process.”

‘Tomorrowland’ an optimism overload

“I

t’s hard to have ideas, and it’s easy to give up.”

Casey Newton (Britt Robertson), a NASA-loving, teenaged girl says this to her little brother when he asks why they are taking down the launch platform at Cape Canaveral.

Casey’s father (Tim McGraw) used to work for NASA, but his last paid gig there is to remove the rigging, a sad ending for a once-proud engineer.

The Disney live-action fantasy “Tomorrowland” announces its message of hope and optimism in this scene, and it still feels fairly natural to the story at this point.

But writers Brad Bird (who also directed) and Damon Lindelof telegraph their intentions ad nauseam, and “Tomorrowland,” a film otherwise filled with plenty of movie magic, starts to lose a bit of its luster.

It should be noted that the unabashed positivity of “Tomorrowland” is a refreshing change of pace for a science-fiction film. Or at least it was noted by me silently before a trench-coated bad guy played by Hugh Laurie comes right out and actually says it.

Mentioning the postapocalyptic nightmare trend in everything from movies to video games, he goes on to explain how these entertainments rob us of our hope to change the future.

He’s got a point — and I know this is a Disney film aimed at kids — but jeez Louise: Ever heard of “show, don’t tell”?

And now I’m going to give that point a rest, because there is plenty of amazing imagery, action, suspense and mystery baked into “Tomorrowland” that is worth celebrating. Bird has long been a fan of ’50s- and ’60s-era sci-fi design.

His 1999 fantasy “The Iron Giant,” which happens to be screening May 31 at Liberty Hall, featured a giant robot that fell from the sky but looked as if it had just walked off the set of “The Day The Earth Stood Still.”

This aesthetic is alive in “Tomorrowland,” especially in a wild “Mars Attacks!”-type scene that takes place at a vintage collectible toy and comic shop (where “The Iron Giant” is specifically referenced).

Combining design elements from EPCOT Center and the Tomorrowland section of Disneyland theme parks, Bird and crew have created a serene utopia filled with monorails and flying spaceships.

Casey’s first visit is one of the highlights of the movie, done in one long sweeping take that feels like a ride itself. In fact, for a while, “Tomorrowland” plays like a bevy of childhood fantasies come to life.

A young boy named Frank (Thomas Robinson) invents a jet pack, there are laser-shooting ray guns and flash-forwards in time. Tomorrowland itself is a hidden world built right on top of our existing one. A sense of wonderment and discovery is defi-

SCENE STEALERS

ERIC MELIN

eric@scene-stealers.com nitely alive in “Tomorrowland,” even if Bird struggles to restage and duplicate that sense throughout the movie.

The structure of the film is interesting, if a little jarring. It starts with a direct address to the audience by Casey and an adult Frank (George Clooney). They argue briefly over how to tell the story and then begin with a flashback to the 1964 World’s Fair.

The backstory of each character seem like minimovies unto themselves and give “Tomorrowland” a charming, scrappy vibe. Once the two characters finally meet, there’s an invigorating home-invasion set piece that’s full of surprises and certainly the high point of the movie.

Twelve-year-old Raffey Cassidy steals the film from Clooney and Robertson as Athena, a girl tasked with finding special people and bringing them to Tomorrowland. This is partially because she holds the answers to all the audience’s burning questions and spends most of the movie withholding them, but her outward poise and confidence also masks a lifetime of hurt that extends beyond her age.

With technology moving forward at an everincreasing rate and the Maker Movement gaining more prominence, there are more opportunities than ever for young people to use their curiosity and creativity to make the world a better place.

“Tomorrowland” unfolds with that same optimism, daring to punch cynicism square in the nose. It’s a wonderful sentiment for kids.

When Bird’s movie clicks, it’s easy to believe that human intelligence and ingenuity can overcome impending global disaster. That’s why he should have given his audience more credit and not spelled everything out for them.

“Tomorrowland” is rated PG for Spielbergian flights of fancy, sequences of sci-fi action violence and peril, thematic elements, and language.

Art helps heal woman with mental disorder

By Joanna Hlavacek Twitter: @HlavacekJoanna

It all started with a doodle.

Lesa Weller had always struggled with mental health. Diagnoses for depression and bipolar disorder came early in life, and several suicide attempts marked her teenage years.

But by 2004, Weller was doing better. Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d graduated five years earlier with degrees in creative writing and American studies from Kansas University and had been working as an administrative specialist at the schoolâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Undergraduate Advising Center.

Weller, it seemed, had carved a â&#x20AC;&#x153;very happyâ&#x20AC;? life for herself and her thenteenage son here in Lawrence.

It all came crashing down in spring of that year, however, when her fatherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sudden death resulted in a breakdown so severe that it landed her in the hospital.

He was diagnosed with lung cancer in January. He was gone by late March, Weller recalls. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I thought Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d gotten past it,â&#x20AC;? Weller, 51, says of her depression. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But when my dad passed, it just hit me.â&#x20AC;?

During her stay at Topekaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Stormont Vail West â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and subsequent stints at Osawatomie State Hospital and various Kansas City-area facilities â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Weller started doodling, a habit she employed frequently as a student in lectures at KU. This time, the doodles were different. Doctors had diagnosed Weller with dissociative amnesia, a condition in which the patient suppresses painful memories. In Wellerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s case, a traumat-

â&#x20AC;&#x153;New Beginnings,â&#x20AC;? by Lesa Weller

Nick Krug/Journal-World Photos

LAWRENCE ARTIST LESA WELLER began creating art while hospitalized in 2004 after the sudden death of her father.

Weller uses her art as a means of therapy while living with various issues of mental health stemming from traumatic life events. ic incident from childhood led her to â&#x20AC;&#x153;leave her bodyâ&#x20AC;? and develop at least a dozen personalities that have different coping methods.

Drawing, she now says, allowed her to better understand her amnesia and dissociative identity disorder â&#x20AC;&#x201D; conditions she had lived with but never recognized as abnormal for most of her life â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and find peace.

Wellerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first â&#x20AC;&#x153;seriousâ&#x20AC;? piece of art, â&#x20AC;&#x153;New Beginnings,â&#x20AC;? has now become her signature. Created during her hospitalization with a ruler and

some gel pens, â&#x20AC;&#x153;New Beginningsâ&#x20AC;? depicts dozens (perhaps hundreds) of straight lines intersecting into colorful checkerboard-like patterns.

The image represents â&#x20AC;&#x153;how all these disparate parts of myself are coming together,â&#x20AC;? Weller says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It helps me heal, it helps me cope, it gives me meaning in so many ways,â&#x20AC;? she says of her art. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just lines and color, but if I can just put that down on paper and share it with others, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s like life itself. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s like breathing.â&#x20AC;?

Now, more than 10 years after that first draw-

ing, Weller says sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s in a â&#x20AC;&#x153;better placeâ&#x20AC;? mentally than ever before.

Part of that comes with accepting that life is not always predictable. And living with mental health issues â&#x20AC;&#x201D; like any difficult set of circumstances, Weller points out â&#x20AC;&#x201D; is often a bumpy ride, with potholes and smooth patches.

Just a few weeks ago, Weller found herself in the hospital again. It was there that she began work on a new piece, â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Road Back to You,â&#x20AC;? that she says is part of her newest series.

In the drawing, curved lines intertwine into a colorful, psychedelic mass. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I started thinking about my husband and how I wanted to get back home to him and have a happy life with him,â&#x20AC;?

Weller says of the pieceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s inspiration. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s almost like a road not just back to my husband, but to myself and whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s really important in my life.â&#x20AC;?

She shares a home with Jack, her husband of six years, and her dog, Freckles, and cat, Kiwi.

Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s converted the living room into a studio, where the animals frequently join her, and teaches

stained-glass classes at Lawrence Creates Makerspace, where she formerly served as gallery coordinator. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I mean, we all have our ups and downs, but Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m at a better place now than Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve ever been,â&#x20AC;?

Weller says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This has been a long process. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m 51 now, and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been at this a long time.â&#x20AC;?

Weller hopes to encourage others with mental health conditions to try their hand at art, too.

Being that May is Mental Health Month, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an especially timely goal. â&#x20AC;&#x153;My art is all about surviving and healing and evolving into the person you want to become. In my art, I want people to find a reassurance that they, too, can heal, that they, too, can evolve into what they want to be, and that itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s possible,â&#x20AC;? she says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve heard so many people with mental health issues say thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no hope, that theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll never be happy. And I want them to hear so much that recovery is possible, that they can come away from that a better person that they will respect and love.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Features reporter Joanna Hlavacek can be reached at jhlavacek@ljworld.com and 832-6388.

Library project archives local music

By Joanna Hlavacek Twitter: @HlavacekJoanna

During his days in the Lawrence music scene of the mid-’90s, Brad Allen heard and saw some pretty interesting stuff.

“I love the stories behind music,” says Allen, whom readers of a certain age may remember from Vitreous Humor and The Regrets.

Now, as Lawrence Public Library director, Allen is helping to archive local bands past and present in a new library initiative called the Lawrence Music Project.

The website, which launched in May after a year of development, allows anyone with a library card to instantly stream or download tracks (and in some cases, entire albums) of local artists from 2015 all the way back to the 1960s.

“Knowing the people I know in the music community around here, we thought it’d be a great opportunity to showcase the music that’s going on in Lawrence,” says Allen, who was inspired by a similar project at the Iowa City, Iowa, public library. “We wanted to provide some music that might be unfindable anywhere else — music that’s unique to the town that may have been lost to history.”

Screenshot of Lawrence Music Project home page, lawrencemusicproject.org Working closely with Fally Afani, editor-inchief of the local music website I Heart Local Music and a freelance writer for the Lawrence JournalWorld, and library technology assistant Sean Wilson, Allen and his vol-

unteers — with funding from Mass. Street Music — originally focused on current bands.

The “last big push” came from Ed Rose, who joined the library staff in January to manage its Sound + Vision recording

studio. The audio engineer helped digitize analog copies of music from the 1960s and 1980s, Allen says.

There’s been a “really good buzz” building around the website lately, which Allen hopes will

result in an expansion of the Lawrence Music Project.

“I really love the idea of people logging in here and seeing what kind of music was created over the last 50 years,” says Allen, whose bands are among those archived.

The goal, ultimately, is to include oral-history interviews (conducted in the library’s Sound + Vision studio, tentatively) with as many groups as possible. Staffers are also looking for photographs and videos to round out the repository.

As of now, library patrons have unlimited access to around 800 songs.

Allen wants that number to grow, and he’s asking for the public’s help to make it happen.

“I really see it succeeding as more of a community project than a library project,” he says. “We wanted to just get this off the ground and see if we could get people excited about hearing music that’s truly local — past and present.”

Anyone interested in contributing to the Lawrence Music Project is asked to email musicproject@lawrencepubliclibrary.org.

BOOK REVIEW

‘Target Tokyo’ brings a well-known WWII story back to life

By Tony Perry Los Angeles Times

After Pearl Harbor and before D-Day and the Bomb, there was the Doolittle raid on Tokyo.

President Franklin D. Roosevelt, hoping to rally the American public for what he knew would be a long war, had ordered a swift retaliation for the attack of Dec. 7, 1941.

And so, on April 18, 1942, 16 B-25s launched from the carrier Hornet for a long-distance bombing raid on Tokyo and other Japanese cities. B-25s had never launched from a carrier; they would make the raid without fighter escort.

The raid quickly became one of the most storied military missions of World War II, with enormous press coverage and, in 1944, a movie based on the true events starring Spencer Tracy as Jimmy Doolittle. Since the war, the raid and the men who flew it have been chronicled in books, documentaries and newspaper feature stories.

Now comes James M.

Scott’s marvelous new book, “Target Tokyo: Jimmy Doolittle and the Raid That Avenged Pearl Harbor,” deeply reported and with a strong narrative style.

It is undoubtedly the most comprehensive account yet of the training of the crew, the modification of the planes, the air attack itself and the complex aftermath in Japan, the U.S. and China.

In Scott’s hands, the story, even at 480 pages (not including footnotes), remains a page-turner. To gather material, Scott visited three dozen archives on four continents.

The raid led by Lt. Col. Jimmy Doolittle was a boost to sagging American morale. If the Americans were buoyed, the Japanese were stunned:

The raid punctured the Japanese militarists’ claim that no invader could reach their island.

Both sides made exaggerated claims: The Americans said the damage was much greater than it was and that none of the planes had been lost (not true).

T h e Japanese said the Americans had targeted civilians (not true, but there were civilian casualties) and that several planes had been shot down (not true).

In both countries, the raid rallied the public to the government: “Just as Roosevelt had capitalized on the mission’s success to help bolster American morale, the Japanese used the attack to outrage and unite the rattled public.”

were captured by the Japanese in China. Three were executed and one starved to death in a Japanese prison. The Americans were tortured by waterboarding. Japanese claimed that aviators had confessed to deliberately targeting civilians, according to Scott.

The raid pushed the Japanese military into the foolhardy decision to attempt an invasion of Midway to increase the protective zone for the home islands. The Japanese defeat at Midway proved to be a turning point.

In China, Japanese troops launched a barbarous campaign to find the Americans whose planes, out of gas, had crashed there; an estimated 250,000 Chinese were slaughtered, villages and cities were razed, women were raped.

The bravery and sacrifice of the Chinese and a group of Western missionaries who rescued the airmen and helped guide them to safe areas where U.S. and Chinese forces were located is one of the unknown — or

at least lesser known — parts of the Doolittle raid.

Scott covers it in riveting detail.

Any story as complex as the Doolittle raid will have facts that do not seem to fit the narrative.

It is to Scott’s credit that “Target” does not shy from those facts. While he is unstinting in his description of Japanese savagery, he provides a touching account of the day that Lt. Dean Hallmark, Lt. William Farrow and Cpl. Harold Spatz were executed by a Japanese firing squad.

The prison warden, Sotojiro Tatusta, was one of the witnesses, Scott reports. The three airmen were tied to crosses.

Tatusta reminded the three that Christ died on a cross. Your names will live forever, he said.

“When you are executed — when you die on the cross, you will be honored as Gods,” he said.

As gods perhaps not, but, as Scott reports, as brave young Americans at a time when their country desperately needed bravery.

POET’S SHOWCASE Say A Prayer Say a prayer To my soul I need A good cry!

Say a prayer Up toward Heaven to send Me a wish For my soul!

Say a prayer To my mind I need love that Won’t leave My heart in pieces!

Say a prayer For my heart To forget My life For being Hard on myself!

Say a prayer To my soul For mean people Who do Wrong upon the Lord!

KANSAS CITY CONNECTION

And he’s still got the hard drives — with “thousands” of images — from his travels.

“Whenever I’m needing inspiration, I just sit there for hours and click through photographs,” says Morris, 36. “One will hit me all of a sudden that I’ve had for 10 years. I’ll print it out and then the whole process starts.”

While some of “More Than Meets the Eye” features images from Morris’ more exotic travels — San Miguel, Mexico and Barcelona, to name a few — other works capture places and experiences closer to home.

Chuck Palahniuk The phrase “book reading” or “author tour” doesn’t generally create an expectation of lively crowd interaction or dynamic storytelling. But it’s a different story when “Fight Club” author Chuck Palahniuk comes to town.

The author will visit the Uptown Theater at 7:30 p.m. Friday for a multimedia event in promotion of his new book, “Make Something Up,” which includes 22 different stories and a novella.

Palahniuk’s appearance is hosted by Rainy Day Books, which is selling the $35 admission package on its website, rainydaybooks.com. The package includes one author autographed hardcover book, one autographed comic book edition of “Fight Club 2,” and a stamped admission ticket.

following bikers around Sturgis, S.D. “That’s how they came out in my mind, postSturgis,” the 31-year-old explains.

“He uses photography for these moments and memories and feelings, and it’s the same way with me, but I do it with paintings or drawings,” Sebelius says of his friend. “Both of them relate to similar themes, but they’re just done in a different material and a different application.

So, I think we’re both touching on feelings of nostalgia and moments of importance.”

Post Coffee Company Speaking of good coffee, I don’t like to think of myself as a snob, but when I’ve visited other cities lately, I’ve found myself seeking out the same quality coffee shops that are all over the KC metro area.

One recent find, in the suburban hamlet of Lee’s Summit, is Post Coffee Company, which opened recently at 200 NE Chipman Road.

Post Coffee Company serves a variety of high-quality hot and iced coffee drinks, as well as a few pastry offerings like the peanut butter bacon scone.

The decor is minimalist but modern, and the atmosphere is reserved but friendly. If you’ve also found yourself in the reluctant coffee snob category and happen to be in southeast Kansas City, this is the place for you.

Visit postcoffeecompany.com for more information.

Morris shot the photograph featured in “Painted Crowd” during a recent Color Run, a race in which participants are sprayed with colored powders.

He originally — and perhaps ironically — took the picture in black and white. Later, Sebelius lent color to the piece by handpainting each of the runners’ faces.

I finally paid a visit last week and immediately realized why I’d been putting it off for so long: My goal to reduce my sugar intake has now gone from unlikely to a complete impossibility.

The gateway drug for me happened to be McLain’s “Cup Cookie,” a pecan sandy thumbprint cookie with special chocolate icing. But the bakery also offers a wide range of Danishes, butter rolls, sweet and savory croissants, coffee cakes, cupcakes and artisanal breads.

I was recently told by a friend of mine that the main reason he started attending a friend’s church is because they serve McLain’s muffins after the Sunday service.

I don’t think he’s kidding.

McLain’s is located at 201 E. Gregory Blvd. (on the corner of 71st and Grand) and is open Tuesday through Friday from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m., Saturday from 7 a.m. to 1 p.m. and Sunday from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. The familyowned bakery also serves coffee and espresso drinks from Thou Mayest.

Woman upset by co-workerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s harassment Dear Annie: I work in an office with 35 women, and it seems as though someone is always hating someone else. Right now, I am the target of two women.

One of these women used to be my friend, and I have no idea why she isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t any longer. I once asked her about it, but her reply surprised me.

She said I took advantage of her by switching shifts so I could leave early while she worked late. I double-checked and discovered that, of the many times we switched, I ended up working late shifts more often than she did. She also said I spoke poorly about her ex-husband, who cheated on her for years while she cried on my shoulder. She claims she never once spoke against my ex, but the truth is, her constant negative comments

were instrumental in my final decision to leave him.

I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t understand why she is angry enough to end a decades-long friendship, although she has done this with other people in her life. She now works with a woman who used to be friendly but no longer speaks to me except to insult me.

Is there any way to make this better, or do I simply have to live with it? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Upset at Work

Stars, salutes at Capitolâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s concert As they have for the past decade, Joe Mantegna and Gary Sinise co-host the National Memorial Day Concert (7 p.m., PBS, check local listings), broadcast live from the U.S. Capitol. Look for appearances

by Colin Powell, Gloria Estefan, Laurence Fishburne (â&#x20AC;&#x153;blackishâ&#x20AC;?) and Tessanne Chin (â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Voiceâ&#x20AC;?). Classical artists Katherine Jenkins and Russell Watson accompany the National Symphony Orchestra, which is under the direction of conductor Jack Everly.

T h e concert will pay special attention to those left disabled by their war experiences as well as the Gold Star children who have lost a parent to war. It will also commemorate the 70th anniversary of the end of World War II.

If salutes to service arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t your cup of entertainment, thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s always â&#x20AC;&#x153;Rich Kids of Beverly Hillsâ&#x20AC;? (9 p.m., E!). This series promises to document the shenanigans of second-generation semi-celebrities, including the spoiled spawn of David Hasselhoff and Magic Johnson.

An investigation into a violent attack explains much about Miltâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s origins and the reasons for his curious transfer on the series finale of â&#x20AC;&#x153;Battle Creekâ&#x20AC;?

(9 p.m., CBS). This is a resolution of sorts for the few fans that stuck around for this quirky but canceled show.

Dear Upset: Your exfriend and her co-worker enjoy the negative vibes because it makes them feel powerful and in control. Because they feed off of each other, it prevents either one from listening to othersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; opinions or working out their issues.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not uncommon for co-workers to behave as though they never left high school.

Stop trying to befriend either of these women, and ignore their negativity. Do your job, act professionally and neutrally toward them, and try to make friends with others.

Dear Annie: I am a communication skills consultant. I disagree with your response to â&#x20AC;&#x153;Beaucoup Baffled,â&#x20AC;? who received an invitation to an overseas wedding and wanted to know whether she

could bring a friend.

You suggested a rather cryptic response (â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not sure Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m up to making such a long journey by myselfâ&#x20AC;?) in the hope that the future bride would understand the hidden meaning. Why not just ask a simple question, such as â&#x20AC;&#x153;Would it be OK if I brought my boyfriend?â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Blainville, Quebec Dear Quebec: We understand your objection, but it is wrong to put the bride in a position where she could feel obligated to invite an extra person.

By saying that one is not up to making the trip alone, it gives the bride the option of including the extra person without backing her into a corner. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Send questions to anniesmailbox@comcast.net, or Annieâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Mailbox, P.O. Box 118190 Chicago, IL 60611.
