e’s back. That guy who knocks on people’s doors is back in the neighborhood again. You can see him plain as day through the drapes.

What’s he doing? How many times has he been in the neighborhood in the last week? Is that a Yankees cap he’s wearing? Very suspicious.

At about that point,

When a fire last month left multiple animals dead at Lawrence’s Pet World store, that was the final straw for many Lawrence city commissioners who are now considering tougher fire codes that will require sprinklers, advanced smoke alarms and other such devices at petrelated businesses across the city.

Thus far, though, the Pet World fire has not caused a CITY City Hall discussion about COMMISSION strengthening the fire code for thousands of apartments or other human dwelling units in the city that have lesser fire protection methods in place than what is being considered for the petrelated businesses.

Republican Gov. Sam Brownback swept into office with 63 percent of the vote in the 2010 elections.

And with super majorities of Republicans in both chambers, he had little trouble enacting historic changes in state government.

Eudora — Two Basehor men are dead, and one Basehor man has been arrested, following a Saturday morning crash near Eudora.

About 5 a.m., a southbound 2002 Chevrolet S10 was nearing the Kansas River Bridge on County Road 1 when it left the roadway and struck a tree, said Maj. James Sherley of the Leavenworth County Sheriff's Office. Passengers Jesse Aldrich, 29, and Justin Wilson, 34, were pronounced dead at the scene, Sherley said. Both men were from Basehor.

The driver of the vehicle, William Wilson, 20, also of Basehor, suffered minor injuries in the crash and was arrested on traffic-related

neighborhood.

“Fortunately, it only takes a couple of minutes for the police to clear me anymore,” Bob says.

It is an occupational hazard for the top volunteer fundraiser for the Lawrence Relay for Life program. But don’t worry, Bob Silipigni is no danger to anyone.

Make no mistake, though.

There is something odd going on here.

Since the beginning of 2015, Bob has raised approximately $55,500 for the Relay for Life program in its effort to provide funding for the American Cancer Society. It is the first year he has topped the $50,000 mark, but he’s been close several times before. In the 15 years he’s been a part of the Relay for Life event, he individually has raised about $345,000 for the local chapter.

How’s he do it? One knock at a time. One day after another.

Bob estimates that he spends about six hours per day on fundraising activities for the organization. Some of it is picking his routes, some of it is correspondence with donors who have moved outside the city, some of it is organization of receipts. But a lot of it is walking, putting knuckles on doors and giving the simple spiel about being a member of the Lawrence Lions (the school, not the service club) Relay for Life Team. Bob says that until recently he had taken just three days off in 2015: Mother’s Day, Easter Sunday and Memorial Day. His donations have come from approximately 2,000 individuals, many of them people he sees year after year.

Thankfully, most of them don’t call the police on him anymore. Now, they are much more likely to invite him in for a cup of coffee or another beverage. Sometimes they’ll share a story too.

Bob says he’s unsure how many of his donors have had an up-close experience with cancer.

But he knows quite a few have.

“There are times that I have had to call a friend and just talk about what I had heard that day so I’m able to go to sleep,” Bob says of some of the stories donors have told about battles with cancer.

He said he has picked up on a common theme

among those afflicted by cancer.

“What works for one person may not work for the other,” Bob says.

“That’s the commonality.

It is different for everybody.”

Indeed, Bob says he has heard the disease described as a frustrating, unfair game of dice. So much that is out of your control. Why did I get this disease? Why doesn’t this treatment work? A thousand whys with the only answer seeming to be chance.

What little I know of Bob is this: He’s not a fan of sitting still (he stood during the course of an hour-plus interview), and he’s not a fan of chance.

“I am a believer,” Bob says. “I don’t know exactly what I believe in, but I don’t think we are here just by chance. That’s the root of why I do this.”

So, Bob clobbers chance one knock at a time. He tells stories along the way. He gets excited about new research that he hopes one day will lead to a cure, sometimes getting technical in the process.

(He started talking to me about immune systems and how research has suggested injecting a small amount of the polio virus in tumors can teach the immune system to fight cancer.) But he also talks of a different type of treatment that is easier to understand.

“There is a theory I like, and it is that we’re all healers,” Bob says.

“We all do it in different ways. Some as a father, some as a mother, some as a teacher, but we can all be healers for someone who is suffering.”

Some healers are walkers. Bob — who is retired from a job that helped adults with disabilities — said he’s always liked to walk. It is in his genes, he said. One of his grandfathers walked 5 miles a day into his 80s.

Bob says he started out just walking around the city without a cause. It made him feel good when people would honk and wave at him, and then one day, an idea hit him.

“I thought, wouldn’t it be great to combine walking with a charity,” Bob says. “The shoe fit, so I wear it.”

Now, he’s driven on so many fronts. He admits to having a deep desire to beat his fundraising total from the year before.

He’s not sure he’ll be able to do that following this year.

“It took a toll on me this year,” Bob says.

A couple of weeks

ago, he quit walking. But then he spent time with a few friends, and became rejuvenated and raised a few more thousand dollars. He’ll start walking again in the new year, but he has promised himself he’ll do it differently.

“I’m going to take off a day a week,” Bob says.

“I may take two days a week off. No, I don’t think I can do that.”

It is not just the dollar totals, though, that motivate Bob. He talks frequently about how many friends he’s made through the fundraising process.

“I have lots of friends,” Bob says. “Some of them I just don’t see but once a year or so.”

He’ll knock on a door, pick up a check, and get caught up on someone’s life. Sometimes the knock does go unanswered.

There are too many cancer stories that don’t have happy endings.

But that won’t stop Bob from walking. He likes to tell a story about when he stopped at a stranger’s driveway one day. A family out in the yard.

He gave his spiel, and the young mother of the family stood in the driveway, quiet and still.

Then she confided in him that she knew a thing or two about a “damn tumor.” There was one that had been hiding behind her breastbone.

“Her reaction was, ‘I’m going to die,’” Bob recalls.

“Two small kids, 29 years old and a husband, and I’m going to die.”

Bob collected a check, and said he would be back next year. He did return, and said hello to the young mother, who was pulling her two children in a wagon up a hill. That was eight years ago.

“I want people to understand there is hope,” Bob says.

Understand it — and be prepared to answer its knock.

KU law professor seeking council seat in Kansas City, Mo.

By Sara Shepherd Twitter: @saramarieshep

With the Kansas City, Mo., City Council election closing in, a Kansas University law professor appears likely to win a seat.

Quinton Lucas, KU associate professor of law, is running to be the third district atlarge representative on the council. Lucas Lucas is a fourth-generation Kansas City native who grew up poor in the city’s urban core, according to his campaign website. He earned academic scholarships to Kansas City’s prestigious Barstow School, then to college at Washington University and law school at Cornell University.

Speakers commemorate 150th Juneteenth, celebrate black history at South Park event

By Rochelle Valverde Twitter: @RochelleVerde

About 150 years ago, Crystal Bradshaw’s ancestor Eliza Bradshaw was freed from slavery. At South Park on Saturday, Bradshaw, a Kansas University student from Jetmore, read an excerpt from the manuscript of her historical fiction novel, “Eliza: A Generational Journey,” based on her family’s past.

Bradshaw’s reading was part of the Juneteenth Commemoration Celebration, which also included educational exhibits on national and local African-American history. Bradshaw said linking back to the past is important.

People, not cattle, flocked to the Flint Hills on Saturday, braving the threat of scattered thunderstorms to hear the Kansas City Symphony play.

The 10th annual Symphony in the Flint Hills went on uninterrupted

by Kansas weather at the Tallgrass Prairie National Preserve in Chase County.

— Tamara Cash, Juneteenth event committee member “It’s really just showing how far the country has come and how we’re all related and connected to each other,” she said.

Juneteenth is celebrated in communities nationwide and commemorates June 19, 1865, a day more than two years after President Abraham Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation. It was on that day that a general from the Union Army informed the last slaves in Galveston,

Texas, that they were free.

Saturday’s celebration started off with a reading of the Emancipation Proclamation by several Lawrence community members, including Lawrence NAACP president Ursula Barnes Minor, Mayor Jeremy Farmer, City Commissioner Leslie Soden and State Rep. Barbara Ballard.

Lucas handily won the April primary with 48 percent of the vote, followed by Stephan Gordon with 14 percent, according to The Kansas City Star.

He appeared on the June 4 cover of The Pitch, which called him “the most promising East Side candidate for City Council in two decades.”

He overhauled the state’s Medicaid system, putting it under the management of three private insurance companies who operate it as a “managed care” health plan.

And he reduced the size of the state workforce by cutting spending, abolishing a number of state agencies such as the Kansas Parole Board, and consolidating others, such as by putting the Kansas Health Policy Authority into the Department of Health and Environment.

But his signature accomplishment was passage in

LAWRENCE • STATE

.

2012 of historic income tax cuts that reduced tax rates across the board and eliminated income taxes entirely for more than 330,000 business owners.

Three years later, with the state facing a mounting budget crisis that was largely driven by the 2012 tax cuts, he ran into strong resistance from members of his own party who wanted to reverse course. And as the 2015 legislative session dragged on for a record-setting 113 days, it appeared his once-powerful influence had waned.

Critics said he was either unable or unwilling to get directly involved in leading lawmakers toward a solution to the state’s $400 million budget hole, and when Brownback finally did put forth his own tax proposal, it got just three votes in the Republican-controlled House.

A few GOP lawmakers say they were disappointed in the way Brownback handled the 2015 session, but they’re not yet ready to write him off as a lame duck.

“I don’t know, as (any) governor has a lot of influence over the past years, I’ve noticed,” said Sen. Ralph Ostmeyer, R-Grinnell, who described Brownback as a longtime friend.

“I think we were trying to get the governor involved this year because because we really felt maybe we went too far one way, and we need to back off,” Ostmeyer said. “I know when I had my meetings with the governor, I tried to relay that to him. I don’t want to say he didn’t listen to me, but I always got the feeling when I walked out, that wasn’t going to be an option, and that always kind of disappointed me.”

However, Rep. Jene Vickrey, of Louisburg, the House Republican leader, said it was the Legislature, not the governor, that was responsible for the difficulties of the session.

“I believe that he’s focused on helping us get the work done, but it’s really our work to do,” Vickrey said.

“A lot of people were hoping he would weigh in a little earlier because his direction is still important for a lot of folks to hear,” said Rep. Kasha Kelley, R-Arkansas City. “He has a vision for the state, and people need to know what that vision is.”

Fort Hays State University political science professor Chapman Rackaway said it’s still too early to call Brownback a “lame duck” governor.

“It’s more appropriate to wait until after the midterm

L awrence J ournal -W orld elections in 2016,” he said.

“Clearly he has no path to the presidency. He’ll be termlimited out in 2018. And what clout he had with the Legislature doesn’t appear to be very strong anymore.”

But Kansas University political science professor Burdett Loomis, who formerly worked in Democratic Gov. Kathleen Sebelius’ administration, said the 2015 session shows Brownback’s “lame duck” period has already begun.

“He is a lame duck by definition,” Loomis said.

“This is a guy who’s got a huge Republican majority in both chambers, and an ideological majority in both chambers. What’s strange to me is, why was this so hard?”

Next year, both the House and Senate will be up for re-election, and that’s when Brownback’s own

political stature, strong or receding, will be important to Republican candidates statewide.

In 2012, with help from the Kansas Chamber and other outside groups, Brownback and his allies successfully recruited conservative challengers to unseat sitting moderate Republicans, a feat that helped bolster his power for the next two years.

A key question in 2016, Loomis said, will be how many Republican candidates will even want Brownback to campaign with them.

“It probably varies from place to place,” he said.

“I don’t know how much Sam’s going to be directly, personally involved. It’d be interesting to see what his personal approval rating is right now. It can’t be very high.”

Fire CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A

“I can definitely see how that would open up a whole other ball of yarn if we start to talk about regulations for people,� said City Commissioner Leslie Soden, who also owns a business that provides pet-sitting services for people in their homes. “My No. 1 thing holding me back from that is I don’t want the conversation to get sidetracked from what we’re talking about with the animalrelated businesses. That would be a huge topic to talk about.�

Commissioners earlier this month received a proposal to require petrelated businesses to have sprinkler systems, smoke alarms that are both hardwired and monitored by an alarm company, carbon monoxide detectors and other such devices.

All those precautions currently are required for newly constructed apartment buildings in Lawrence as well. But here’s the difference: Commissioners are considering proposals that would require existing pet-related businesses to install sprinklers and monitored alarms too. That’s a new step for the city. When new fire codes have been adopted in the past, the city has not required existing apartment buildings or single-family homes, for example, to meet the new code requirements, said Jim King, the city’s fire marshal and division chief for fire prevention. Existing units are only required to upgrade to new codes if they undergo a significant remodeling.

That has created a situation where King estimates the majority of smoke alarms in use in the city are the old battery operated type. You know the kind: They go chirp, chirp, chirp in the middle of the night, until someone removes the battery. If a new battery never gets replaced, the smoke alarms are useless.

Smoke alarms that aren’t working properly are the No. 1 code violation city inspectors are finding as they inspect rental units across the city. “We find especially in the rental units that students have a lot of other uses for the nine-volt battery,� King said.

There is an obvious difference between the situation pets and humans find themselves in during a fire. The fire at Pet World — and an earlier fire at Christal K-9 — both involved pets in cages, some of whom were being boarded overnight. Animals have far less ability to help themselves escape a fire than humans do.

But King said the situation humans and pets may find themselves in during a fire may be more similar than you would think. “It makes perfect sense for humans too,� King said of increased fire protec-

a Lawrence landlord, said city policies that begin affecting the living units of residents are always tricky. “I think people get a little bit leery when we start telling people what to do in their own homes,� Herbert said.

Mayor Jeremy Farmer said he’ll be interested to see if the Pet World discussion does cause a larger discussion about fire codes. “If people are interested in having that type of conversation, we need to have it,� Farmer said.

He said retroactively requiring apartments to install sprinkler systems could be very expensive and disruptive. Requiring single-family units to install sprinkler systems isn’t allowed under state law.

The state has passed laws that block cities from requiring sprinkler systems in single-family homes, King said. But Farmer said a requirement that smoke alarms in the city be upgraded to hardwired devices that aren’t solely dependent on a battery likely would come at a much more reasonable cost. “We tend to have these conversations in reaction to a tragedy, and that is unfortunate,� Farmer said.

King said Lawrence has been fortunate in the low number of fire-related deaths in recent years.

An apartment fire at the Boardwalk Apartments killed three and left 17 injured in 2005. King said more recent fires have produced significant injuries as residents have had to jump from second-story windows and take other such actions to escape.

City officials currently are gathering more feedback from veterinarians and other owners of petrelated businesses in the city. The proposed fire code changes for those pet-related businesses are expected to come back to the City Commission for discussion in the next several weeks.

tion standards for human dwelling units.

King said residents who are disabled, ill, elderly, very young or just plain incapacitated for any of the number of reasons that people become incapacitated in a college community are at risk. Plus, King said if people are living in a unit with an inoperable smoke alarm, they may wake up surrounded by smoke and in a dangerous situation. City Hall officials last year produced a video with a fire survivor talking about how difficult escape can be.

City fire officials have not made any recommendations about whether fire codes should be changed for human dwelling units.

King said professional firefighters always like to see the use of sprinklers, advanced smoke alarms and other fire protection devices. But he said there’s also a recognition that requiring such retroactive installations can be difficult politically and sometimes economically.

Technically, fire officials aren’t recommending installation of sprinkler systems retroactively for pet businesses either. That recommendation has come from the owners of Pet World and other pet advocates. City commissioners have said they want to consider requiring the retroactive sprinkler installations for all pet businesses in the city. Fire department officials are recommending the retroactive installation of hardwired, monitored smoke alarms for pet-related businesses.

Several city commissioners said they understand the issue, but also recognize anything that would add to the costs of apartment owners or homeowners would be controversial. “I will be delighted to take part in whatever conversation the community wants to have, but I don’t see me driving this one,� said Commissioner Stuart Boley. “That would be a big issue in the apartment world and the business world.�

Opinion

EDITORIALS

Sad session Amid threats and arm-twisting, the Kansas Legislature has concluded its 2015 session, but there is no cause for celebration.

A

photo taken early Friday morning showed a couple of Kansas House members shaking hands in a seemingly congratulatory gesture.

No one in the Kansas Legislature or the Kansas governor’s office should be congratulating themselves on this year’s legislative session or the manner in which the final tax bills eventually were passed.

The deadlock on a tax plan was broken at about 4 a.m. Friday when the Kansas House finally mustered the bare minimum of votes to pass two measures that will impose large tax increases on many Kansas residents, while continuing to protect the income tax exemption for businesses in the state.

Friday morning’s action came only after a coercive meeting on Thursday afternoon — a joint House-Senate meeting for Republicans only — during which Gov. Sam Brownback and his budget director threw out an array of threats for what could happen if the Legislature failed to approve tax increases. Among those was the outlandish proposal that the governor might use his line-item veto to completely cancel allocations for the state’s six universities. At some point, enough legislators apparently decided it wasn’t in the state’s best interests to risk leaving the decisions in the governor’s hands.

At no time during this debate did Brownback express willingness to compromise on his “march to zero” income tax cuts. Instead, he was focused on “consumption” taxes like sales tax. In 2010, the Legislature increased the state sales tax from 5.3 percent to 6.3 percent to deal with the impact of the national recession. Because they assumed the situation would be temporary, legislators agreed to a sunset provision that would reduce the sales tax to 5.7 percent in 2013. Instead of sunsetting the tax, the Brownback administration continued a sales tax of 6.15 percent in order to balance the state budget.

Now the state will raise that tax to 6.5 percent, but there is no sunset provision.

That’s interesting, because if the governor truly believes that the state’s current revenue problems are only a short-term situation that will disappear when his income tax initiative provides that “shot of adrenaline” to the state economy, why wouldn’t he suggest setting a sunset date to eliminate the sales tax increase?

The House also decided to remove a provision to reduce the sales tax on groceries, which would have been a small bright spot for low-income Kansans.

During the debate, the chairman of the House tax committee actually said that he favored delaying approval of the lower food sales tax until next session because “we’d like to be able to vote on that next January or February and have a nice positive thing to vote on.”

He and many of his colleagues must think Kansans have very short memories.

What are the chances that legislators will decide next year that the state’s financial situation isn’t good enough to allow a reduction in the sales tax on groceries?

Even if the tax on food is lowered, do legislators think Kansans will believe that is an adequate trade-off for the increased taxes they are paying in other areas?

The financial crisis that hit Kansas this year had been developing for years, ever since the passage of large income tax reductions started to erode state revenues. Faced with that crisis, Kansans were hoping to see some rational thinking and real leadership in Topeka.

Unfortunately, they got little of either.

The long road to government limits Washington — Americans should light 800 candles for the birthday of the document that began paving the meandering path to limited government. Magna Carta laid down the law about “fish weirs” on English rivers, “assizes of darrein presentment,” people being “distrained to make bridges,” and other “liberties ... to hold in our realm of England in perpetuity.” But what King John accepted at Runnymede meadow on June 15, 1215, matters to Americans because of something that happened 588 years later in the living room of Stelle’s Hotel in Washington, where the Library of Congress now sits.

Although the “great charter” purported to establish certain rights in “perpetuity,” almost everything in it has been repealed or otherwise superseded. Magna Carta led to parliamentary supremacy (over the sovereign — the king or queen) but not to effective limits on government. The importance of the document was its assertion that the sovereign’s will could be constrained.

In America, where “we the people” are sovereign and majority rule is celebrated, constraining the sovereign is frequently, but incorrectly, considered morally ambiguous, even disreputable.

Hence the heated debate among conservatives about the role of courts in a democracy. The argument is about the supposed “countermajoritarian dilemma” when courts invalidate laws passed by elected representatives: Does the democratic

George Will

“

Although the Constitution does not mention judicial review, the Framers explicitly anticipated the exercise of this power.” ethic require vast judicial deference to legislative acts?

The first memorial at Runnymede was built in 1957 by, appropriately, the American Bar Association. It is what America did with what Magna Carta started that substantially advanced the cause of limited government.

The rule of law — as opposed to rule by the untrammeled will of the strong — requires effective checks on the strong. In a democracy, the strongest force is the majority, whose power will be unlimited unless an independent judiciary enforces written restraints, such as those stipulated in the Constitution. It is “the supreme law” because it is superior to what majorities produce in statutes.

Magna Carta acknowledged no new individual rights. Instead, it insisted, mistakenly, that it could guarantee that

certain existing rights would survive “in perpetuity.” British rights exist, however, at the sufferance of Parliament. In America, rights are protected by the government’s constitutional architecture — the separation of powers and by the judicial power to stymie legislative and executive power.

Early in 1801, as John Adams’ presidency was ending, a lameduck Congress controlled by his Federalists created many judicial positions to be filled by him before Thomas Jefferson took office. In the rush, the “midnight commission” for William Marbury did not get delivered before Jefferson’s inauguration. The new president refused to have it delivered, so Marbury sued, asking the Supreme Court to compel Jefferson’s secretary of state, James Madison, to deliver it.

Chief Justice John Marshall, writing for the court, held that the law authorizing the court to compel government officials to make such deliveries exceeded Congress’ enumerated powers and hence was unconstitutional. Jefferson, who detested his distant cousin Marshall, was surely less pleased by the result than he was dismayed by the much more important means by which Marshall produced it. Marshall had accomplished the new government’s first exercise of judicial review — the power to declare a congressional act null and void.

Although the Constitution does not mention judicial review, the Framers explicitly anticipated the exercise of this power. Some progressives

and populist conservatives dispute the legitimacy of judicial review. They say fidelity to the Framers requires vast deference to elected legislators because Marshall invented judicial review ex nihilo.

Randy Barnett of Georgetown University’s law school supplies refuting evidence: At the 1787 Constitutional Convention, Madison acknowledged that states would “accomplish their injurious objects” but they could be “set aside by the national tribunals.” A law violating any constitution “would be considered by the judges as null and void.” In Virginia’s ratification convention, Marshall said that if the government “were to make a law not warranted by any of the [congressional] powers enumerated, it would be considered by the judges as an infringement of the Constitution which they are to guard. ... They would declare it void.”

With the composition of the Supreme Court likely to change substantially during the next president’s tenure, conservatives must decide: Is majority rule or liberty — these are not synonyms, and the former can menace the latter — America’s fundamental purpose?

Because one ailing justice was confined to Stelle’s Hotel, it was there that Marshall read aloud Marbury v. Madison. This made Feb. 24, 1803, an even more important date in the history of limited government, and hence of liberty, than June 15, 1215.

Death penalty demands reconsideration To the Honorable Antonin G. Scalia, associate justice of the Supreme Court of the United States: Dear Sir: Twenty-one years ago, your then-colleague, the late Justice Harry Blackmun, wrote what became a famous dissent to a Supreme Court decision not to review a Texas death penalty conviction. In it, Blackmun declared that he had become convinced “the death penalty experiment has failed” and said he considered capital punishment irretrievably unconstitutional.

The death penalty, he wrote, “remains fraught with arbitrariness, discrimination ... and mistake. ...

From this day forward, I no longer shall tinker with the machinery of death.”

You mocked him for this stance in an opinion concurring with the majority, invoking as justification for capital punishment the horrific 1983 case of an 11-year-old girl who was raped then killed by having her panties stuffed down her throat. “How enviable a quiet death by lethal injection,” you wrote, “compared with that!”

A few months later, the very case you had refer-

enced came before the court. Henry Lee McCollum, a mentally disabled man who was on death row in North Carolina after having been convicted of that rape and murder, applied to the court for a review of his case. You were part of the majority that rejected the request without comment.

The demagoguery of your response to Justice Blackmun is pretty standard for proponents of state-sanctioned death. Rather than contend with the many logical and irrefutable arguments against capital punishment, they use a

brute-force appeal to emotion.

Certain crimes, they say, are so awful, heinous and vile that they cry out for the ultimate sanction. For you, Sabrina Buie’s rape and murder was one of those, a symbol of why we need the death penalty.

As you have doubtless heard, it now turns out McCollum was innocent of that crime. Last year, he and his also-mentally-disabled halfbrother Leon Brown (who had been serving a life sentence) were exonerated by DNA evidence and set free, A few days ago, McCollum was pardoned by North Carolina Gov. Pat McCrory.

The case against him was never what you’d call ironclad.

No physical evidence tied him to the crime. The centerpiece of the prosecution’s case was a confession McCollum, then a 19-year-old said to have the mentality of a child 10 years younger, gave with no lawyer present after five hours of questioning. “I had never been under this much pressure,” he told the News & Observer newspaper in a videotaped death row interview, “with a person hollering at me and threatening me ... I just made up a false story so they could let me go home.”

But he didn’t go home for

over 30 years. You and your colleagues had a chance to intervene in that injustice and chose not to. Not incidentally, the real culprit avoided accountability all that time.

The argument against the death penalty will never have the visceral, immediate emotionalism of the argument in favor. It does not satisfy that instinctive human need to make somebody pay — now!

— when something bad has been done. Rather, it turns on quieter concerns, issues of inherent racial, class, geographic and gender bias, issues of corner-cutting cops and ineffective counsel, and issues of irrevocability — the fact that, once imposed, death cannot be undone.

Those issues were easy for you to ignore in mocking Blackmun. They are always easy to ignore, right up until the moment they are not. This is one of those moments, sir, and it raises a simple and obvious question to which one would hope you feel honor bound to respond. In 1994, you used this case as a symbol of why we need the death penalty.

What do you think it symbolizes now?

Multivitamins Might Help Some Women Survive Breast Cancer

After an average of seven years follow up, women taking the supplements were 30 percent less likely to die from breast cancer.

Women who have been diagnosed with, and treated for, invasive breast cancer have better odds of surviving if they happen to take multivitamin/ multi-mineral supplements.

Reference: Wassertheil-Smoller S, McGinn AP, Budrys N, et al. Multivitamin and mineral use and breast cancer mortality in older women with invasive breast cancer in the women’s health initiative. Breast Cancer Research and Treatment, 2013: doi 10.1007/s10549-013-2712-x.

Reference: Ji Y, Tan S, Xu Y, et al. Vitamin supplementation, homocysteine levels, and the risk of cerebrovascular disease. Neurology, 2013;81:1-10.

Doctors have known for years that some of the B vitamins—particularly folic acid, B6, and B12—can lower blood levels of homocysteine, a substance that damages blood vessels. The effects of lowering homocysteine have been mixed in cardiovascular studies, but the benefits in stroke reduction have been more consistent.

Thirty-eight percent of the women were taking multivitamin/multi-mineral supplements, and the vast majority of them were taking the supplements before their diagnosis.

Choline needs increase in pregnancy Choline is an essential B vitamin. A study of pregnant and non-pregnant women conducted at Shepard University, West Virginia, found that choline requirements increase significantly during the third trimester of pregnancy.

When a fire last month left multiple animals dead at Lawrence’s Pet World store, that was the final straw for many Lawrence city commissioners who are now considering tougher fire codes that will require sprinklers, advanced smoke alarms and other such devices at petrelated businesses across the city.

Thus far, though, the Pet World fire has not caused a CITY City Hall discussion about COMMISSION strengthening the fire code for thousands of apartments or other human dwelling units in the city that have lesser fire protection methods in place than what is being considered for the petrelated businesses.

Sniper kills suspect in Dallas police headquarters attack Gunman upset over child custody case Doug Stanglin and Jessica Estepa

USA TODAY and WFAA-TV, Dallas-Fort Worth DALLAS A gunman who riddled Dallas police headquarters in a “helter-skelter” rampage Saturday with an assault rifle was fatally shot by a police sniper after fleeing in an armored van, police said.

Police waited several hours to declare the suspect dead until they could examine his getaway

van, which they feared had been rigged with explosives.

When bomb squads intentionally detonated suspected ordnance inside the van, the vehicle caught fire, setting off live rounds inside, police said. Police found two more pipe bombs in the van that required disposal.

No one was injured in the attack, even though the gunman — angry over a child custody battle — had raked the lobby and second floor of the headquarters from several angles, shattering glass and sending officers

An attack on the Dallas police headquarters left bullet holes in the front glass but didn’t injure anyone.

scrambling. He also planted pipe bombs packed with shrapnel at the headquarters, rammed a police car and opened fire again before speeding off.

“We are blessed that our officers survived this ordeal,” Police Chief David Brown told reporters. The chief said the scene was “very helter-skelter for a long while,” with the gunman changing magazines and moving to multiple firing positions.

After leading officers on a 10mile chase, he pulled the vehicle into a parking lot near a restaurant in the town of Hutchins, about 12 miles south of Dallas,

Brown said.

After negotiations by cellphone with the gunman broke down, a SWAT team sniper shot him through the windshield.

Brown said the suspect identified himself as James Boulware, but police could not confirm that until they obtain fingerprints and get identification from him. “He said we took his child and we accused him of being a terrorist and that he is going to blow us up,” Brown said.

“I may not be the youngest candidate in this race, but I will be the youngest woman president in the history of the United States,” she said.

Clinton cited the experience of her mother, Dorothy Rodham, who was abandoned by her own parents and suffered a difficult girlhood in the ’20s and ’30s.

“My mother taught me that everybody needs a chance and a champion,” Clinton said. “She knew what it was like not to have either one.”

Later, Clinton returned to that theme. Referring to a single mother she met recently who was struggling to raise three children and attend community college, she said, “I want to be her champion and your champion.” The crowd of several thousand supporters roared.

There were a few policy recommendations, but Clinton made it clear that she sees a connection between the people who helped her mother — a first grade teacher, a benevolent employer — and herself.

She has always said Americans (especially needy women and

children) could count on her to fight for them; on Saturday she tried to explain why she fights.

Otherwise, she begins the campaign with many of the same assets and liabilities as when she ran for president eight years ago.

As then, it’s hard to say which set is more striking.

Is it the assets — her fundrais-

ing ability, her vast network of friends and supporters, her extensive résumé, her peerless name recognition?

Or is it the liabilities — her aversion for the push and pull of retail politics, her entrenched cadre of critics, her reputation for calculation, her peerless name recognition?

Since 2008 she’s burnished that résumé with a stint as secretary of State. But now she’s also dogged by questions about the attack on American diplomats in Benghazi, her use of private email as secretary, and donations to the charitable foundation created by her husband, Bill, after he left the White House.

As in 2008, she leads all her rivals, Republican and Democratic, in the polls.

As in 2008, Iraq — which haunted her campaign (she voted for the invasion but came to oppose the war) — will be an issue.

But there are differences this year, too.

‘MIRACLE’ CURE OUT OF REACH New drugs’ cost burdens patients, taxpayers Liz Szabo

USA TODAY

Sophisticated drugs are opening the door, scientists say, to an era of “precision medicine.”

They’re also ushering in an age of astronomical prices.

New cancer drugs are routinely priced at more than $100,000 a year — nearly twice the average household income.

Experimental cholesterol drugs — widely predicted to be approved this summer — could cost $10,000 a year for life. That’s a huge increase from the price of statins, the dominant cholesterollowering drugs, whose generic versions cost just $250 a year.

A drug for a subset of people with cystic fibrosis — a lung disease that kills most patients by their early 40s — commands more than $300,000 a year.

Even with insurance, patients may pay thousands of dollars a month out of pocket.

For many people, care for cancer and other serious diseases is “a doorway to bankruptcy or poverty,” said Timothy Turnham, executive director of the Melanoma Research Foundation.

But patients aren’t the only ones paying. Taxpayers underwrite the cost of prescription drugs provided by Medicare, Medicaid and other public insurance programs.

Spending on prescription drugs last year reached a recordbreaking $374 billion, up 13% from 2013, with the largest percentage increase in more than a decade, said Clare Krusing, spokeswoman for America’s Health Insurance Plans. Almost half of that increase came from drugs launched in the past two years.

Some of the most expensive medications are “breakthrough” drugs, which fill an unmet need, she said. Over the next decade, just 10 of these breakthrough drugs will cost the government nearly $50 billion.

“We’re spending money we cannot afford,” said Leonard Saltz, chief of gastrointestinal oncology at New York’s Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center.

Yet Saltz said he can’t deny that some new drugs are game changers. “I want these drugs and drugs like them available for my patients,” Saltz said.

The cystic fibrosis drug, Kalydeco, has changed 33-year-old Emily Schaller’s life. Before Kalydeco, Schaller was hospitalized for lung infections two or three times a year. Since beginning the drug five years ago, through a clinical trial, she’s been hospitalized twice. Schaller, who lives in Detroit, receives Kalydeco through Michigan’s state-run health insurance program.

“It’s a miracle drug,” Schaller said. “I’m now planning a retirement fund, which is something I never thought I would need.”

Yet miracles remain out of reach for many.

Even patients with insurance can have trouble affording their medication, Saltz said. Many insurance plans require patients to pay 20% of their prescription drug costs.

“If we don’t get some sanity in these drug prices, more people will die from cancer because no one will be able to afford them,” Saltz said.

Leonard Saltz, chief of gastrointestinal oncology at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in New York City, says cancer drugs today cost too much.

RATIONING CARE

Each new drug approval seems to set a new floor for prices, as doctors, patients and insurance providers get used to paying more, said David Howard, an associate professor in the department of health policy and management at Emory University in Atlanta.

So even drugs outside the domain of precision medicine are getting pricier.

Prices for insulin have skyrocketed in recent years, said Jeff Myers, president and chief executive officer of Medicaid Health Plans of America, which represents Medicaid managed care plans.

But perhaps no single drug has caused as much sticker shock as Sovaldi, approved in 2013 to treat chronic hepatitis C infections. Sovaldi, from Gilead Sciences, cures 90% of patients in 12 weeks.

But many people with hepatitis C will never have a chance to try it. At $1,000 a pill, its price far exceeds that of many cancer therapies.

Unlike drugs for rare cancers, which may be used for a few thousand people a year, Sovaldi treats a condition that affects 3 million people, Krusing said. The size of that patient population could make Sovaldi a budget breaker.

Medicaid programs across the USA are sharply restricting access to Sovaldi, offering it only to the sickest patients, Myers said.

Treating hepatitis C — which is caused by a virus that can spread when injection drug users share needles — helps prevent new cases, Myers said. That’s because curing the illness leaves fewer infectious people to spread it.

“If the drug had been priced more rationally, my expectation is that states would try to treat everyone they could (get) a hold of,” Myers said. “Imagine if Jonas Salk, when he invented the polio vaccine, had priced it like Gilead.

We’d still have polio.”

recoup their investment costs.

Research from Tufts University estimates that bringing a new drug to market can take 10 years and $2.6 billion, said Robert Zirkelbach, a spokesman for the Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America. Some health policy analysts have questioned Tufts’ estimate.

But Zirklebach said that charging more for successful drugs helps to offset the losses from the many drugs that fail. And the pharmaceutical industry’s investments benefit patients, he said.

Drugs in development have “never been more promising,” Zirkelbach said. “That’s particularly true in cancer. New medicines coming out have the ability to completely transform cancer and provide hope where there has never been hope before.”

“WHAT THE MARKET WILL BEAR”

Yet the high cost of new medications has nothing to do with their effectiveness, said Vinay Prasad, chief fellow in oncology at the National Cancer Institute.

In a study of all drugs approved from 2009 to 2013, Prasad found no difference in cost between medications that improve survival the most and those with no effect on survival. There was also no difference in the price of the most innovative drugs — ones that worked in a totally new way — compared with similar drugs that came later.

“Our ultimate consensus was that there is no rational basis for drug prices,” said Prasad, whose study was published in JAMA Oncology in April.

Competition hasn’t helped to control prices, Saltz said.

Some cancer drugs will never become available as generics, Turnham said. That’s because they’re “biologics,” drugs grown in living cells. Lower cost versions of these drugs, called biosimilars, are projected to save patients only about 15%, Turnham said.

And some prices continue to rise, in spite of competition from comparable drugs.

The landmark drug Gleevec, which transformed chronic myeloid leukemia from a death sentence into a chronic disease, cost $31,488 when it was approved in 2001, according to its manufacturer, Novartis. Its cost has since tripled — to more than $110,000 — even though it now competes with two similar drugs.

Julie Masow, a spokeswoman for Novartis, said Gleevec is priced lower than its competitors.

Drug price increases show no

“Imagine if Jonas Salk, when he invented the polio vaccine, had priced it like Gilead (Sciences).

We’d still have polio.”

Jeff Myers, president and chief executive officer of Medicaid Health Plans of America

A spokeswoman for Gilead said Sovaldi’s price reflects its value to patients. Sovaldi cuts treatment time in half compared to older therapies, said Gilead spokeswoman Cara Miller. Sovaldi also could end up saving money by reducing the need for liver transplants.

Like many drug companies, Gilead offers a program to help low-income patients afford medications.

A spokesman for the pharmaceutical industry said that drug makers need to charge enough to

sign of slowing.

The cost of new cancer drugs has been increasing by 10% a year, according to a working paper published in the Journal of Economic Perspective.

Saltz and his colleagues at Memorial Sloan Kettering have taken a stand on rising drug prices.

In 2012, the hospital decided to stop stocking a drug because it cost more than twice the price of a drug that worked just as well.

Within three weeks, Saltz said, the company offered doctors and hospitals a 50% discount.

In 2008, Clinton faced a much more daunting lineup of rivals for the Democratic nomination.

One issue in 2008 — can Americans trust a woman as commander in chief? — seems less pressing in light of Clinton’s experience as secretary of State.

The Roosevelt Island event, which Clinton’s campaign billed as her “official launch speech,” comes amid signs of declines in her popularity.

Political suspense will be based on the same question as eight years ago: Can Hillary Clinton, for all her accomplishments and supporters, win a tough electoral contest? It’s an issue raised by her fall-from-ahead loss to Barack Obama in 2008.

When she announced eight years ago, her campaign posted on its website a memo by pollster Mark Penn that began with the frank admission that “People are always asking, ‘Can Hillary Clinton win the presidency?’ …”

Eight years later, they still are.

Dry spell gets worse for Calif. farmers Sammy Roth

The (Palm Springs) Desert Sun

State officials announced major water cutbacks for Northern California farmers Friday, a historic step that could challenge claims the agriculture industry is getting a free pass during the state’s epic drought.

The cutbacks will affect some of California’s oldest water rights holders — farmers who laid claim to surface water more than a century ago — for the first time in four decades. They will not be allowed to draw water from the San Joaquin River, the Sacramento River and the delta that forms where the two rivers meet. State officials said the rivers simply don’t have enough water to meet the demands of all rights holders.

This isn’t the first time during the current drought that the state has cut off supplies to surface water users, including farmers. The water board had curtailed nearly 9,000 water rights this year, all of them junior water rights that were established post-1914.

But for the first time since a severe drought in the late 1970s, California is starting to tell senior water rights holders, who laid claim to surface water before 1914, that there isn’t enough water for them. The cutbacks announced Friday impact rights holders who established their claims between 1903 and 1914.

More historic cuts could be coming this summer. The State Water Resources Control Board says it’s continuing to monitor conditions in watersheds across the state, and that cutbacks could be on the horizon for more senior rights holders. “Curtailment notices for other watersheds and for more senior water right holders in these watersheds may be imminent,” it said.

Can Obama trade deal be salvaged?

Measure is not dead despite suffering setback in House vote

@coopallen USA TODAY

Gregory Korte There will be a number of milestones during the 2016 presidential campaign — but the Iowa Straw Poll will no longer be one of them. The state’s Republican Party announced Friday it was ending the tradition that began in 1979. More news from the world of politics:

RICHARD J. CARSON FOR USA TODAY

Former first lady takes new tack.

BARBARA BUSH TO STAY MUM Former first lady Barbara Bush told the “Today” show last week that she’d “promised that during this next campaign season, I will not talk.” Her son Jeb Bush is likely to officially join the GOP presidential race Monday.

In 2013, she made news when she said she didn’t want her son to run for president in 2016 because “we’ve had enough Bushes.” She’s since changed her mind, though, and has helped with fundraising for his super PAC. Despite the vow of silence, she did say in her interview last week, “I’m gonna stop voicing my opinion and sticking up for things I think are right — except (for) my boy.”

NO PAID SPEECHES FOR BILL CLINTON IF HILLARY WINS Former president Bill Clinton in an interview last week said he would stop giving paid speeches if Hillary Clinton wins the White House next year. “No, I don’t think so,” he said when asked if he would continue doing so by Bloomberg Television’s Betty Liu. The 42nd president, speaking at a Clinton Global Initiative event, also addressed Clinton Foundation donations during the interview, which have been an ongoing source of controversy during the campaign.

“Has anybody proved that we did anything objectionable? No. Have we done a lot of good things with this money? Yes,” Clinton said. “I’m proud of the work we do.”

MARK WILSON, GETTY IMAGES

“He’s a bro with no ho,” Kirk said.

REPUBLICAN SENATOR CAUGHT ON OPEN MIKE Illinois Sen. Mark Kirk, R-Ill., was caught Thursday making a remark at a committee hearing about colleague Lindsey Graham that he would’ve preferred remain private. Commenting on Graham’s status as a bachelor, a rarity among presidential candidates, Kirk can be heard saying in audio posted by The Huffington Post: “Did you see that? He’s going to have a rotating first lady. He’s a bro with no ho.”

Graham has joked that if he won the election he would have a “rotating first lady.” Kirk later told Politico that he regretted making the comment.

BERNIE SANDERS STRIKES OPTIMISTIC NOTE Hillary Clinton may be the frontrunner, but Sen. Bernie Sanders isn’t downplaying his chances for the Democratic presidential nomination. The Vermont independent told a breakfast meeting of reporters Thursday that he was confident he’d have the funding to compete against Clinton.

“We have momentum,” Sanders said. “I’m in this election to win.” Sanders is typically polling ahead of Martin O’Malley and Lincoln Chafee among Democratic voters, though all are well behind Clinton.

USA TODAY

WASHINGTON House Democrats overwhelmingly rejected a key provision in President Obama’s trade deal Friday. And for a moment at least, a cornerstone of Obama’s second-term legacy appeared to be in ruins.

And then Obama’s agenda was dramatically salvaged — for the moment — by House Republicans.

The trade deal is not a done deal. But it’s not dead, either.

By a bipartisan vote of 126-302, the House rejected a provision expanding trade adjustment assistance for workers who will be

buffeted by the unforgiving winds of the global economy.

That vote came moments after House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., announced her opposition to the plan. Without her support, conservative House Republicans bailed, reasoning that they no longer had any reason to go along with a program that necessitated an increase in taxes to make a trade vote more palatable to Democrats.

Obama’s trade agenda appeared to be dead. Without trade adjustment assistance, there would be no vote on a “fast-track” trade promotion authority. And without fast-track, there would likely be no Trans-Pacific Partnership.

Game. Set ... What now?

Like Hulk Hogan in a headlock, House Speaker John Boehner, ROhio, quickly pulled off a highstakes legislative maneuver. His

“What I would concede is that our work is not done yet.”

Josh Earnest, White House press secretary

chief lieutenant, Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., called for an immediate vote on “fast track” even without the job training sweetener.

It passed, 219-211.

That vote kept the trade package alive, but it still needs some form of trade adjustment assistance to win Senate support. And when the congressional leadership and the president agree that something must pass, it usually does.

Pelosi suggested one path out of the tangle: Tying passage of the trade deal to a job-creating high-

way bill that Democrats would support.

Obama did not speak publicly after the votes.

But White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest put an optimistic face on the situation, dismissing the initial rebuke by House Democrats as another “procedural snafu.”

“We’re obviously gratified that we were able to advance that legislation with bipartisan support,” he said, noting the 28 House Democrats who voted for the bill “exceeded expectations.” The Democratic magic number was assumed to be closer to 20. He said, “That’s a strong endorsement of the president’s strategy.

But what I would concede is that our work is not done yet.”

Looking for his footing As Jeb Bush enters race, he faces several hurdles Ledyard King USA TODAY

Jeb Bush is expected to announce Monday what everyone already knows: He’s running for president.

What’s less clear is whether a splashy sendup in Miami will allow the onetime front-runner to move beyond sagging poll numbers, criticisms of his ability on the stump and questions about his fundraising.

Those who know the former Florida governor don’t seem worried.

“I’ll bet you there are at least a dozen candidates who would very happily trade places with Jeb Bush,” said Tom Rath, a New Hampshire strategist who advised Bush’s father and brother but has yet to get behind a 2016 candidate.

“All the advantage that he appeared to have early in this process, he still has. The underpinnings are pretty solid.”

Bush’s announcement comes on the heels of a troublesome few weeks: uDemocracy 21 and the Campaign Legal Center have asked the Justice Department and the Federal Election Commission to investigate whether Bush violated campaign finance laws prohibiting coordination between candidates and super PACs. The groups say that, even though Bush hasn’t officially announced his White House bid, he’s essentially been behaving like a candidate and shouldn’t have been discussing strategy with the Right to Rise super PAC backing his candidacy, or collecting big checks for the PAC. Federal candidates are barred from accepting donations larger than $2,700 for a primary election.

Bush’s supporters counter that his actions were legal because he wasn’t an official candidate. uPolls suggest Bush has not risen above the rest of the crowded Republican field, despite reportedWASHINGTON

ly record fundraising, his credentials as a successful governor of the nation’s largest swing state and a family pedigree that gives him an advantage with the GOP establishment in many states.

Bush is virtually tied with the other two main GOP front-runners, Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker and Florida Sen. Marco Rubio.

And recent polls show him trailing in several key states, including

Iowa, Ohio and New York.

He also retains high unfavorability ratings compared with other candidates, partly due to voter disaffection with the Bush family. A CNN/ORC International poll released June 2 found that 56% of Americans said Bush’s status as the son and brother of former presidents makes them less likely to vote for him. uQuestions about Bush’s abili-

ties as a campaigner emerged last month after his fumbled response to a question on Fox News about whether he would have ordered an invasion of Iraq if he’d had access to accurate intelligence. Over three days, Bush gave conflicting answers, including an excuse that he misunderstood the question.

He finally said he would not have gone to war.

Commentators skewered him for botching a question he should have known was coming.

“Everyone can see that Jeb Bush is doing poorly so far,” analysts at the University of Virginia’s Center for Politics wrote last week.

“This Bush intimidates no one.

His political skills are rusty, he’s a pedestrian speaker and some of his views (immigration reform, Common Core, etc.) have made him many enemies among party ideologues.”

Doubts about Bush’s campaign increased recently with news he had shaken up his political team.

Bush’s problems aren’t that different from those affecting former secretary of State Hillary Clinton on the Democratic side, said Susan MacManus, a political science professor at the University of South Florida.

Both face higher expectations and more intense scrutiny than other candidates. Both are linked to political dynasties, with all the disadvantages and advantages that brings. And both have shown some rust due to years away from the campaign trail.

“It’s not surprising that they weren’t perfect,” MacManus said.

“But here’s the deal. Every single other (candidate), once they get in the limelight, (will) go through the same scrutiny and make mistakes.”

Even if he stumbles in early states, Bush will have the money, the network and the patience to remain in the race until Florida’s March 15 primary, where the winner will capture all of the state’s 99 Republican delegates.

Rath said it’s no time for Bush backers to panic: “They’re not voting tomorrow. Whatever people seem to think has gone wrong, he’s got time to remedy.”

IN BRIEF TAMIR RICE REPORT REVEALS SHOOTING DETAILS

The police officer who shot and killed Tamir Rice told investigators that the 12-year-old reached for a gun just before the patrolman opened fire.

“He gave me no choice. He reached for the gun and there was nothing I could do,” Cleveland police officer Timothy Loehmann told a fellow officer in the moments after he shot Tamir at a gazebo outside a recreation center on Nov. 22.

The officer’s words — released Saturday in a 224-page report from Cuyahoga County Prosecutor Tim McGinty — mark the first time Loehmann’s account of the shooting was revealed.

The report also notes that Loehmann and his partner each refused to be interviewed by sheriff’s investigators.

Workers inside Cheyenne Mountain pass through the inner blast doors, which seal the caverns off from the access tunnel.

cally get arrested before they even get near the bunker’s front doors, reached by driving a mile through a tunnel carved out of solid rock.

The bunker was originally built to help military commanders survive a direct Soviet nuclear attack, and Cheyenne Mountain in central Colorado still plays a key role in American air and space supremacy because it’s virtually impervious to attacks on the electronics housed there. The mountain’s shielding means the military can remain in contact with satellites above even if workers are completely sealed inside.

In other words, this is a facility of last resort, designed to keep running no matter what is happening outside.

COLD WAR CREATION

To understand the bunker’s present and future, it’s helpful to start in the past.

“It’s a tribute to the fear and American and Canadian will that during the Cold War, they were literally willing to hollow out a mountain, move a mountain,” said U.S. Navy Capt. Jeff Davis, a spokesman for NORAD. NORAD, or the North American Aerospace Defense Command, was created as a joint American-Canadian effort to monitor the skies for ballistic missiles and other attacks. Its founders knew their headquarters would be among the first targeted during nuclear war.

That grim expectation is easier to understand after walking into the echoing caverns blasted out in the 1960s. Two thousand feet below the surface, buildings made of battleship steel sit on springs isolating them from earthquakes that could accompany a nuclear blast outside. The mountain itself is about 9,500 feet tall, and the tunnel entrance sits about 2,000 feet from the top.

Underground reservoirs carved from rock provide drinking and cooling water, while a lake of diesel fuel sits ready for the six locomotive-sized diesel generators capable of powering a small city. A bank of batteries provides more backup power.

That protection and redundancy help the bunker carry out its largely classified mission to help keep America safe. NORAD and the U.S. Air Force monitor the skies over North America for ballistic missiles, space debris and hostile aircraft. Though NORAD commissioned the bunker, it moved the bulk of its operations to nearby Peterson Air Force Base in 2006.

NORAD maintains a small continuous presence inside the underground complex and routinely practices operating from there. In a crisis, its leaders would retreat to the bunker for safety and security.

The remaining 70% of the complex is used by the Air Force for a variety of classified missions. These days, the blast doors remain open most of the time.

They were shut during 9/11 and are closed and opened daily to ensure they still work. The bunker

Matthew Broderick and NORAD feature in WarGames.

BUNKER IS A FILM FAVORITE The Cheyenne Mountain Complex, the alternate command center for the North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD), has captured the imagination of storytellers since it was constructed in the 1960s.

No wonder. A highly classified military installation carved into the heart of a mountain is the perfect foil for crazed generals, precocious young coders and otherworldly explorers.

HERE’S A LOOK AT SOME FAVORITES uIn the 1983 movie “WarGames,” a teenage Matthew Broderick almost starts World War III after connecting his home computer to a supercomputer inside Cheyenne Mountain to play a war simulation. That supercomputer controls NORAD’s computer defense system and all of the intercontinental ballistic missiles. uStanley Kubrick’s classic black comedy “Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb,” finds the bumbling leaders of the U.S. militaryindustrial complex huddled together beneath Cheyenne Mountain as they try to avert the inevitable apocalypse set in motion by a rogue Air Force brigadier general. uIn the Terminator franchise, the primary antagonist is Skynet, an artificial intelligence system that puts humanity on the brink of extinction and eventually builds the Terminators. Skynet was originally built to control the U.S. missile-defense system and installed at the Cheyenne Mountain Complex before it turned on its creators and caused global thermonuclear war. uIn the TV series “Stargate SG-1,” which aired on the Showtime and Syfy networks, Stargate Command and the Stargate itself are housed in the Cheyenne Mountain Complex, kept secret and safe from the public eye. uIn “The Hunger Games,” the resistance is headquartered in an old military facility built beneath a mountain in District 13. According to the story, the country Panem exists in North America on the remains of what was once the USA, and District 13 is capable of launching nuclear missiles — a nod, perhaps, to NORAD and Cheyenne Mountain.

Though the mountain still holds many secrets, one of its best features has taken on new importance. Thanks in large part to the granite under which it’s buried, Cheyenne Mountain is impervious to electromagnetic radiation.

An electromagnetic pulse, which invariably accompanies a nuclear explosion, can fry nearby electronics, from phones and laptops to cameras, radios, GPS units and even vehicles. The bunker is the country’s single-best EMP-protected complex, Rose said, and serves as the ultimate backup during a nuclear attack.

The bunker’s security measures have helped give it a largerthan-life presence in Hollywood, thanks to the Terminator, WarGames and Independence Day movies, along with last fall’s Interstellar, and the long-running scifi show Stargate SG-1.

Once inside the buildings, it’s hard to see the protections that make it a bunker of last resort.

That’s by design. There’s a convenience store and cafeteria, along with a gym, chapel and spin class room. Most spaces pull double duty: The spin room can be converted into a medical triage bay.

Still, the carpet and lighting make portions of the facility look much like any other cubicle farm, even if the only “window” views come from televisions showing a live feed of the outside parking lots.

“We try to eliminate the feeling that you’re working in a cave,” Rose said.

But a cave it is. The water reservoirs used as a backup facility

remains a hedged bet against a nuclear attack, ensuring critical command and surveillance systems keep running during a worst-case scenario.

After a series of news articles this year wrongly said NORAD was moving back into the mountain, officials with the Air Force’s 721st Mission Support Group granted a USA TODAY journalist an unusually extensive behindthe-scenes tour. Photography was tightly restricted, and most buildings inside the complex remained off-limits.

But the tour, given by the facility’s deputy director, Steven Rose, offered a glimpse into a world most Americans will never see.

Cheyenne Mountain sits just south of Colorado Springs.

One reason for the prevalence of reluctant part-timers is that workers under 25, who often want to work part time, have comprised a progressively smaller share of the labor force. since 2006 is due to long-term changes in the labor market that may be less responsive to low interest rates.

In May, 4.2% of the labor force was made up of involuntary parttimers, the San Francisco Fed says. In May 1996 and late 2004, when unemployment was at the current level of 5.5%, the share of involuntary part-timers was just 3.2%.

One reason for the prevalence of reluctant part-timers is that workers under 25, who often want to work part time, have comprised a progressively smaller share of the labor force.

That forces employers to draw part-timers from the pool of older Americans who want full-time jobs, the study says.

Another factor is that hotels and restaurants, which employ many part-time workers, make up a bigger share of the labor market than they did before the recession and have been slow to replace part-timers with full-timers, according to the San Francis-

co Fed and Royal Bank of Scotland (RBS).

Employer preferences also have changed.

Many businesses likely have limited their hiring of full-time workers to avoid health coverage requirements under the Affordable Care Act, says RBS Chief Economist Michelle Girard.

And employers in sectors such as retail, warehousing and call centers are increasingly using software to slot in part-timers to handle peak customer demand, says Susan Lambert, a labor economist at the University of Chicago.

“That trend is not going to reverse just because the economy is getting better,” she says.

Other firms are bringing on part-time workers for projects that may not require 40 hours a week. Wilson Holding Co., of Key Biscayne, Fla., which coordinates employee training and conferences, has 11 full-time employees and seven part-timers. CEO Richard Wilson says the part-timers perform tasks such as book editing and graphic design. If he replaced them with full-time workers, each would have to handle multiple roles.

“I’m getting somebody who is specialized,” he says. Plus, he says, he saves on health care costs.

Most part-time workers don’t get benefits such as health insurance or paid vacation.

Lambert, though, says evershifting part-time schedules can make it hard for workers to meet household expenses and often generate higher employee turnover.

Says Lyndsay Lujano, 31, a Kerman, Calif., cashier and bookkeeper who averages 30 hours a week: “I can’t go on vacation.”

Net neutrality rules are now in effect Court of appeals denies a stay request Mike Snider @MikeSnider USA TODAY

The Federal Communications Commission’s net neutrality rules went into effect Friday after a court decided not to block them.

The U.S. Court of Appeals in Washington, D.C. on Thursday denied a request by several broadband providers and opponents to the FCC’s Open Internet order or net neutrality rules.

The rules, passed by a partisan 3-2 vote in February, require Internet service providers to give consumers access to all legal content and applications on an equal basis, without favoring some

sources or blocking others.

After the rules’ passage, several companies and groups including AT&T, USTelecom, CTIA The Wireless Association and National Cable & Telecommunications Association challenged the rules in court asking for a stay.

“This is a huge victory for Internet consumers and innovators,” FCC Chairman Tom Wheeler said in a statement released before the rules went into effect. “Starting Friday, there will be a referee on the field to keep the Internet fast, fair and open.

Blocking, throttling, pay-for-priority fast lanes and other efforts to come between consumers and the Internet are now things of the past. The rules also give broadband providers the certainty and economic incentive to build fast and competitive broadband

Opponents welcomed the court’s decision to expedite the case. “The U.S. is the world’s leader in the deployment and adoption of wireless broadband, due in large measure to decades of lighttouch regulation,” said CTIA President and CEO Meredith Attwell Baker in a statement. “The wireless industry seeks to restore that approach ... rather than suffer the harmful consequences of the FCC’s overreach.”

Also on Thursday, a U.S. House subcommittee passed a budget provision that would cut FCC funding by $25 million and prevent it from enforcing the net neutrality rules until court cases were decided. It’s not yet known if the provision will make it out of committee and be included in ongoing budget negotiations.

I

f you’re not saving for retirement because you’re trying to meet day-to-day, rather than far-off, needs — don’t fret. But don’t opt out of saving for retirement in your employer-sponsored retirement plan either. Consider: A new study suggests that Americans of all ages and income levels are more like the grasshopper rather than the ant from Aesop’s Fables. They’re more focused on day-to-day financial problems rather than saving for retirement, college and the like.

And that’s true even for Americans who have their dayto-day finances under control, according to the report just published by the Center for Retirement Research at Boston College.

What’s more, Americans aren’t likely to devote much effort to addressing distant financial needs, wrote the authors of the Boston College report, Steven Sass and Jorge Ramos-Mercado.

To be fair, the study notes that lower-income households are more likely than high-income households to worry more about day-to-day fi- nances.

Sass, the program director of the Financial Security Project at the Boston College center, says that’s because their finances are in worse shape.

However, just because better-heeled people worry less doesn’t mean they have a better focus on the future.

“We did not find that higher-income households are more focused on distant issues,” Sass says.

“Their attention, I imagine, has shifted to non-financial concerns, such as sports, movies or the kids.”

THE COST OF CONVENIENCE Those checks your credit card company sends you may be tempting. But if you use them, it’ll probCharisse ably cost you. The so-called Jones USA TODAY convenience checks are one form of a cash advance, and a new survey from CreditCards.com finds that such advances often come with high fees and interest rates.

Of the 100 cards reviewed, 98 charged for a cash advance.

Most often the fee was 5% of the amount, or $10, whichever is more. And unlike a regular credit card purchase, interest on cash advances usually starts accruing right after the transaction.

Given that the average interest rate on an advance is 24%, a steeper rate than what’s usually attached to a standard purchase, consumers can wind up owing far more than they bargained for. “I think that people generally understand that the cash advance is kind of a different animal than your standard credit card purchase, I just don’t know that they know fully all

HIGH COSTS Based on CreditCards.com’s review of 100 credit cards, those cards with the highest APRs for a cash advance were:

the details,” says Matt Schulz, senior industry analyst for CreditCards.com.

Interest kicking in immediately, for instance, “can make those super-high interest rates an even dicier proposition.”

A typical $1,000 cash advance would cost an extra $69 even if it’s paid off in 30 days because of the fee and interest beginning to accrue immediately. On the other hand, a standard credit card purchase of $1,000 would not accrue any interest if paid off within that same month-long period.

Other credit card transactions that might be considered cash advances are money orders, wire transfers and even the uFirst Premier Bank credit card (36.00%) uBP Visa and the Texaco Visa (both 29.99%) uExxonMobil SmartCard (29.95%)

Others, meanwhile, suggest not making too much of the research. “Some households might be rational in not being especially concerned about the longterm concerns,” says Sherman Hanna, a professor at Ohio State University. “If I have limited resources, perhaps Medicaid will cover me,” Hanna says. “If I have no dependents, perhaps not having life insurance and not saving for college is fine.”

Still, Sass and Ramos-Mercado say the study reinforces the need to nudge people into saving with 401(k) auto-enrollment programs and the like. “It is important to make saving easy and automatic for households at all ages and income levels, so that they can set aside enough to secure a basic level of financial well-being in retirement,” the authors wrote.

Defaulting all workers into a retirement plan with an adequate contribution, as is currently underway in the United Kingdom, would help, Sass says.

So, what else can people do to save and invest for long-term needs? Here’s what experts say: FRAME IT: “Individuals often lack self-control and have a preference for spending money today rather than investing for the future, such as savings for retirement with an annuity,” says Victor Ricciardi, a professor at Goucher College in Baltimore and co-editor of Investor Behavior: The Psychology of Financial Planning and Investing.

His advice: “People should frame the annuity decision as a source of funds they can spend in retirement years such as $2,500 per month for purchasing a new car or taking a vacation. When the investment decision is connected to a future spending activity, this substantially increases the chance the person will decide to invest in the annuity.”

THINK AHEAD: Lewis Altfest, the CEO at Altfest Personal Wealth Management in New York City, recommends creating what he calls “distant-need scenarios and a realistic method of getting there.”

Then he suggests imagining what might happen if you don’t follow the plan.

“I have found that once people are engaged with what happens in a weak retirement affordability scenario, such as eating out at McDonald’s, it really shakes them up and motivates them to save or cut their retirement expectations,” Altfest says.

Also, think about what decision you would make if it was going to be the same decision every day, says Dan Ariely, a professor at Duke University in Durham, N.C., and author of The Upside of Irrationality.

Also, put a picture of yourself as you would look in 30 years if you kept making this same decision every day.

DO FOR YOURSELF WHAT YOU WOULD TELL OTHERS: “Ask yourself: ‘What advice would I give someone else about retirement saving?’ Then take that advice yourself,” says David Laibson, a professor at Harvard University in Cambridge, Mass.

“And don’t delay.”

Institutions can play a role, too. Sameer Deshpande, an associate professor at the University of Lethbridge in Alberta, Canada, says financial institutions and the government can help Americans focus more on longterm needs.

Financial firms could organize events featuring celebrities and musicians but with the focus on helping people save for distant needs, Deshpande says.

Firms could also use fearbased ads. Similar to the way the American Cancer Society shows the ill effects of smoking, financial institutions could show what happens when someone doesn’t save for retirement. In the extreme, this might mean showing pictures of older Americans eating cat food for dinner.

That sounds an awful lot like something Aesop would write.

Schulz adds that a consumer who pays only the minimum due may not make a dent in what they owe for a cash advance. That’s because the federal Credit CARD Act allows card issuers to direct a minimum payment to the balance that carries the lowest interest rate. And that’s unlikely to be the higher interest cash advance.

“The longer you let those high-interest rate balances continue to grow, the harder and harder it will be to eventually get rid of that debt,” he says.

Despite the costs, a cash advance may sometimes be necessary, Schulz says, and it can be less onerous than a payday loan, or even an overdraft.

“When you boil it all down, what people need to know is

that cash advances can be the best of a bunch of really bad options when times get tough,” he says. “If you do (take) one, it’s incredibly important to pay it off as soon as you possibly can because the math can work against you really quickly.”

“But,” he emphasizes, “under normal circumstances, they’re something you should avoid.”

KANSAS FOOTBALL

Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

Football appearances sometimes deceiving at first glance

A special role

The impression a football player makes when he walks through the locker room door for the first time can be misleading. It only reveals what the athlete looks like on the outside.

Je’Ney Jackson, director of the Kansas University football team’s strength and conditioning staff, remembers a couple of misleading appearances from his days working under Chris Dawson, now at Kansas State.

“James McClinton,” Jackson said. “J-Mac, if you were to look at J-Mac, you would say, ‘This guy’s not a Big 12 defensive lineman.’

But he worked his tail off, got big, got strong, and by his senior year (2007), he was Big 12 Defensive Lineman of the Year.”

Not to mention secondteam All-American.

“We used to say he looked like a pile of chewed Nick Krug/Journal-World Photo bubblegum,” Jackson said.

Busch wins in return to Xfinity Brooklyn, Mich. (ap) — After a scary crash at Daytona left him with a broken leg and foot, Kyle Busch had to focus on some pretty simple milestones.

“Obviously, the first step was just being able to stand up,” he said. “Next step was being able to walk.”

Now Busch can check off some more advanced accomplishments in his recovery.

Busch returned to NASCAR’s Xfinity Series on Saturday for the first time since his accident — and he did so with a flourish — winning at Michigan International Speedway.

He resumed his Sprint Cup schedule last month, but the race at MIS was his first in NASCAR’s second-tier series since breaking his right leg and left foot in February.

“It’s an emotional day and any win is,” he said. “You never know when it’s your last, obviously that’s for sure after Daytona and what happened.”

It was Busch’s record 71st career victory on this circuit. He won the 250-mile, 125-lap race in his No. 54 Toyota by 0.477 seconds over Chase Elliott.

He completed the 1.755-mile, 11-turn Exhibition Place street circuit in 59.4280 seconds and will start from the pole position Sunday.

It was his 41st career pole position and fifth this year. Penske teammate Simon Pagenaud will join him in the front row after finishing second in 59.6095.

Juan Pablo Montoya (59.6242) and Scott Dixon (59.8879) will start in the second row ahead of Sebastien Bourdais (59.9012) and Luca Filippi (1 minute, 0.2312 seconds).

Truex puts his team in Chase Charlotte (ap) — Its headquarters are located 1,500 miles from the hub of NASCAR country.

It’s a single-car team — supposedly a relic of bygone days past.

Many of the parts and pieces it uses it purchases from others.

Furniture Row Racing could be the classic NASCAR example of “The Little Engine That Could.”

It could, but actually it’s more like “The Little Engine That Has Spent the Last Month Running Circles Around All the Big Engines.”

Big-dollar, multicar teams are supposed to be the lifeblood of NASCAR these days but thanks to Martin Truex Jr.’s victory Sunday at Pocono (Pa.), at least one single-car team will compete for the Sprint Cup Series championship for the second consecutive season.

AJ Allmendinger’s victory at Watkins Glen, N.Y., last season sent the JTG Daugherty Racing organization into the Chase for the first time.

Thanks to Truex, Furniture Row Racing this year will make its second appearance in the Chase.

CAMERON PERCY, OF AUSTRALIA, HITS ONTO THE NINTH GREEN during the St. Jude Classic golf tournament Saturday in Memphis, Tennessee.

Owen, Gomez share lead at St. Jude Classic Memphis, Tenn. — Englishman Greg Owen and Fabian Gomez of Argentina each shot a 3-under 67 Saturday to share a one-stroke lead after 54 holes at the St. Jude Classic.

The wind kept everyone guessing from shot to shot on a hectic day at TPC Southwind where as many as six players had a piece of the lead at some point during the third round.

But Owen, looking for his first PGA Tour title in his 214th event, had four birdies and one bogey. Gomez opened with the first of his three bogeys and finished with six birdies.

Brooks Koepka had at least a piece of the lead through the first two rounds and got to 10 under. He finished with a 71 and is tied with Scott Brown (68) for second at 202.

Park takes third-round lead Harrison, N.Y. — Two-time defending champion Inbee Park shot a 7-under 66 on Saturday to overtake fellow South Korean Sei Young Kim for the lead after three rounds of the KPMG Women’s PGA championship.

Kim, a rookie who came into the round with a one-stroke lead, shot a 69. The two had battled all afternoon and went into the final hole tied at 13-under par. But Park made her seventh birdie of the day on 18, and Kim missed a 4-foot putt for par.

Suzann Pettersen and 17-year-old Canadian sensation Brooke Henderson each shot a 71. They ended tied with Hall of Famer Karrie Webb for third place, six strokes back.

Webb was in second place to start the day, and overcame bogeys on her first two holes to shoot a 72.

Coach won’t lead prayers Toledo, Ohio — Toledo’s football coach says he’ll no longer lead pregame prayers with his team after the university received a complaint from an anti-religion group.

Coach Matt Campbell said in a statement Friday that it now will be up to players to determine what they do before games.

The Freedom From Religion Foundation in Wisconsin told the university in May that the prayers were a violation of the U.S. Constitution. The organization cited a video showing Campbell leading the team in the Lord’s Prayer in their locker room before a game in 2012.

Campbell is entering his fifth season leading the Rockets. He says he won’t change his values and that he appreciated the support of the university’s administration.

The school’s interim president released a statement Friday calling Campbell a role model.

year last year. He may have gotten a little tired late. We rode him pretty hard during the season, especially when Devonté (Graham) got hurt (and missed six straight games),” Self said. “Frank has really improved.

Frank is better now than he was. He has fresh legs now. You think he’s an athlete during the season. You see some of the things he’s doing now and you realize what a fabulous athlete he really is.”

Mason, who is a basketball workaholic, has played a lot of basketball since KU’s season-ending loss to Wichita State on March 22 in Omaha, Nebraska.

However, the bumps and bruises he sustained during an ultra-competitive 2014-15 season have long disappeared.

“I went back home two weeks, got to see family and friends, got to see my son (Amari),” Mason said of the only time he’s spent away from Lawrence following final exams. “I got in the gym a lot. Now I’m back here ready to get started.”

Mason, who was KU’s second-leading scorer at 12.6 ppg last season (off 44.1 percent shooting; 42.9 from three), had a team-leading 142 assists against 74 turnovers with a team-leading 50 steals.

Nonetheless he feels he can do more.

“Everything,” Mason said, asked what he’s been working on. “Every part of my game, on the court, off the court being more of a vocal leader, being a better leader period, better teammate. You can always work on everything to get better,” he added.

He believes the Jayhawks will gain a lot from playing in the World University Games, July 3-14 in Gwangju, South Korea.

“We’re going to enjoy practice and try to win the tournament, that’s the goal,” Mason said.

“Every game we play we want to win, no matter if it doesn’t count against our record or anything.

Every game we play we want to get better moving forward. It will give us a great opportunity to be successful moving into the next season.”

Mason is somebody the Jayhawk players and coaches definitely respect.

“He’s our leader. He’s starting point guard for Kansas. You have to be a leader,” soph guard Devonté Graham said. “He leads by example. Guys feed off his energy. He does a great job of leading.” l One camp ends, another begins: KU’s twoday Parent/Child camp concluded on Saturday.

Self then held his Basketball Boogie on Saturday night at Abe and Jake’s in downtown Lawrence.

Today, the second session of his camp begins through Thursday.

“We do four camps that kind of follow against each other,” Self said of his two camps for youths, Parent/Child camp and Team camp. “Parents come in and hang out with their kids, have fivestar accommodations staying in the dormitory,” he joked of the Parent/ Child overnight camp.

“It’s really kind of bonding. It’s fun,” Self added. l Learning about Korea: KU’s players are taking a course for credit this semester on South Korea.

“Basically they are spending four weeks in class learning about their culture and helping us prepare going over there,” Self said. “We’ll do some things in the class once we get to Gwangju.

Then we’ll come back and have another week to finish class up. It will be educational and our players will get something out of it. They’re going to have to work for it.”

Cardinals slip past Royals St. Louis (ap) — Jason Heyward closed his eyes in the bright glare of the sun, dropped slowly to the turf on his backside, and hoped for the best.

The St. Louis Cardinals right fielder made the key defensive play against the cross-state rival Kansas City Royals strictly by feel, preserving an eighth-inning lead by snaring a sinking liner

by Kendrys Morales.

“I saw it off the bat and that was the last time I saw it until I went to throw it in,” Heyward said after the 3-2 victory on Saturday. “I felt it hit my glove and I was surprised when it hit my glove.”

The catch for the second out of the eighth with a man on was certainly deflating for the visitors.

“That was a lucky catch,” Royals manager Ned Yost said. “I mean, there’s some skill involved with that, but if you watch the replay he wasn’t even looking.

“That’s when you start thinking, ‘Whoa, we may be in trouble here.’”

“I figured it was either out or it was going to be a can of corn,” Reynolds said. “So I just jogged anyway.”

Alex Gordon and Salvador Perez homered for the Royals, who took two of three from the Cardinals at home last month and will be trying to avoid a sweep in the finale. The series matches teams

with the best records in each league, and the Royals have been held to two runs and 10 hits.

“Sometimes you go through slumps like this,” Gordon said. “But we’ll get out of it.”

Matt Carpenter and Jason Heyward added an RBI each for St. Louis, which is a major leaguebest 41-21 overall and 24-7 at home. The Cardinals used five relievers over the last four innings to hold a one-run lead with Trevor Rosenthal getting

Hyman

a highlight film’s a highlight film. No different for a kicker. We’re going to look at a kicker on film, but before we get fired up about a punter or a kicker, we’re going to go see him in person.”

Hyman explained the value of that.

“Seeing the ball pop off a punter or a kicker’s foot live is what you want as a specialist coach,” he said. “You can also see leg speed a lot better in person, a lot better. And you’ll say, ‘All right, give me 10 kicks.’ Then you’re going to see it. You’re not going to see a highlight reel. ‘Give me 10 kickoffs, your best.’ Then you’re going to get a great average of height, hang, distance. And get a range.

What’s his best? What are his mis-hits?”

Not surprisingly, speed is the first priority when Hyman assembles coverage units.

“Those gunners make your cover team,” Hyman said. “If you can win with speed, and have those guys who are fast, let them win with speed. We’ve got some team speed. I’m still trying to figure out who that is. If we can be smart and let those guys with speed play fast and not force them to be thinking too much, we’ve got a chance.”

Lacking so much depth in so many areas, Kansas projects to have difficulty scoring and especially preventing the other team from scoring, so strong special teams play is a must. If Hyman can’t figure out a way to make that happen, it won’t be for lack of effort.

Then invest in you. What are you going to get better at today?’ It’s no different for a coach. I can look at film and say, ‘Hey, this drill was set up to a tee. I like the organization here. The players knew what they were doing here.’ Or, ‘They didn’t know what they were doing here. Why didn’t they know? Hey, it ain’t their fault. Where did I miss the communication?’ If I’m going to hold them accountable, then I better hold myself accountable as well.”

Football is all about getting 11 parts to work together as one. Hyman pointed out an interesting challenge unique to special teams.

“Take a wide receiver,” Hyman said, “he might be working with the defensive guy that he goes up against every day in practice, tries to beat one on one and then they’re working for a common goal. How do you get

McClinton’s final game for KU came in the Orange Bowl victory vs.

“I lost my ring,” he said. “I left it at a gas station in Milwaukee. That ring’s gone.”

But his name lives on in Kansas football weight-room sessions and practices, invoked by coaches as an example of how to make yourself a little better every day.

Another Orange Bowl standout cited by Jackson for transforming his body has had better fortune in the professional ranks.

Cornerback Chris Harris signed a five-year,

$42.5 million contract last December. The Pro Bowl cornerback was not selected in the 2011 draft and signed with the Broncos for a $2,000 bonus.

“Chris Harris is 5-81/2 or something like that,” Jackson said of the cornerback listed at 5-10 on the Broncos roster.

“You would have never thought he would be starting in the NFL. From Day 1, he was just tough, just a tough dude.”

If there is a Harris or McClinton in this class of recently arrived recruits, Jackson, head coach David Beaty and his entire staff will recognize the signs early.

“J-Mac, Chris, unbelievable minds,” Jackson said. “Just no quit. I don’t care what we did, zero quit in those guys.”

KANSAS UNIVERSITY SPECIAL TEAMS coordinator/tight ends coach Gary Hyman visits with the media during a January introductory session.

Cardinals 3, Royals 2

the last four outs for his league-leading 21st save in 22 chances.

The Royals’ eighth did not lack for dramatics.

Rosenthal rallied from a 3-0 count to get Gordon on an infield popup with two on for the third out.

The first two games were sellouts, giving the Cardinals 13 on the year.

Most of announced attendance of 45, 981 stuck around after a 24-minute rain delay before the top of the sixth.

Lyons (1-0) allowed two runs and three hits.

He failed to make an impression in three starts earlier in the year in place of injured Adam Wainwright, entering with a 5.54 ERA, but fared much better replacing injured Lance Lynn.

Gordon’s eighth homer gave the Royals the lead in the second, and Perez tied it at 2 with his 10th homer in the fourth.

The Cardinals scored two runs on five hits in the third, a rally that began with Kolten Wong’s leadoff triple. Reynolds’ fourth homer, in the fifth off Jeremy Guthrie (4-4), snapped a 2-all tie.

Then he reunited with Banks as quality control coach for special teams at Texas A&M for a year before Beaty hired him. If looking at where and how often Hyman has moved to coach football isn’t enough to prove he loves his job, watching him at practice seals the deal. If he wore a Fitbit bracelet it might explode midway through practice. He’s always moving forward or sideways or backpedaling, his long arms sometimes looking as if they haven’t quite caught up with his feet. He tends to deliver his message at eyeball-to-eyeball range.

By the end of practice, he’s exhausted.

“If I wasn’t, then I’d go check the man in the mirror and see why he wasn’t putting in any money,” Hyman said. “You’ve got to invest. You’ve got to invest, baby. You’ve got to invest in who you are. I tell the players that, ‘You want to be a professional?

Very often special teams is the least coveted position on a coaching staff. It’s the job a coach takes when he can’t land anything else. You tend to get noticed only when something goes awry.

Many of your players prefer their primary positions. And there is so much ground to cover in such little time.

And then there are coaches who get hooked on special teams and stay there forever. Hyman puts himself in the latter category.

“I sought it out because of the special teams coordinator I got to work with,” Hyman said, meaning current Texas A&M special teams coach Jeff Banks. “He runs around and is fired up and that’s how he gets those kids to buy in. You can make it fun and still get in quality work. He taught me that. Because of that, that’s what we do. Getting better doesn’t have to be a grind. We have a lot of fun doing what we do and we’re getting a lot better doing what we do.

That was a great lesson he taught me. Shoot, that was back in the UTEP days and I’m wet behind the ears and he’s teaching me the ins and outs of special teams.”

After two years working under Banks as a graduate assistant, Hyman moved to Div. II South Dakota School of Mines, where he coached special teams and wide receivers for two years.

those guys to work together, to come together for a common goal? If you have that answer, that magic, then you and I would have lots of money in our pocket because that’s the trick. That’s a hard task to accomplish.

But they are seeing that I believe as we’re working through the spring, some of the players are understanding that.”

KU’s special teams have lacked consistency in recent years, most notably at kicker. Coaches aren’t allowed to discuss players who have not signed letters of intent, but Texas all-state kicker Tre Honshtein from East View High in the Austin area announced Feb. 16 on Twitter that he would continue his football career at Kansas as a preferred walk-on.

The Austin American Statesman reported that in the past two seasons, Honshtein has kicked 100 touchbacks, made 113 of 113 extra points, and made 17 field goals, including a pair of 51-yard threepointers. Most programs don’t use scholarships on kickers. The only scholarship offer Honshtein received was from Army.

Oklahoma State was among the schools offering him preferred-walkon status.

Asked how he evaluates kickers, Hyman said that he has to see them in person before believing in them.

“It’s like a quarterback, in my opinion,” Hyman said. “Like you hear coach (Rob) Likens talk all the time, if he’s going to go offer a quarterback, he’s going to see him throw in person because

Is Oakland ready for rioting?

Oakland, Calif. (ap) ­ It happens far too of— ten. A city’s team plays for a sports championship and win or lose, fans riot shortly after the final game ends. Look no further than San Francisco, Los Angeles, Boston, Detroit or Vancouver for examples. But few of those cities have as much protest fatigue as Oakland.

This city has endured a seemingly endless run of street unrest that has left leaders, merchants and residents weary, struggling to find ways to balance the right to assemble with the need to control those who don’t do it peacefully. Now, win or lose, will the championship run of the Golden State Warriors result in yet another night of bedlam? City officials are preparing as if it will.

So much so, that on Friday, the city announced it would delay a Tuesday meeting with a packed and controversial agenda over concerns that the NBA Finals could conclude in Cleveland that night, leading to unrest and big crowds in Oakland.

Oakland police have asked the Highway Patrol and other agencies to be on “heightened alert” to help respond to disturbances when the series against the Cleveland Cavaliers ends, said spokesman Officer Frank Bonifacio. Police are also expecting hundreds to attend a Friday-night vigil for a man an officer shot and killed last week.

They are also asking fans to be aware of their alcohol consumption and to not trash the city,

which is still bearing the scars of boarded up windows along Broadway’s Auto Row, where May Day protesters shattered glass, burned cars and looted at least one business.

“If people are just gathering and celebrating we know we can be there to monitor,” Bonifacio said. “If (they commit) property destruction and violence we know we need to get in there and act.”

In an email to city officials, Interim Business Administrator John Flores warned that Oakland, “based on the experiences of other large cities following sports championship games,” must “plan for any scenario,” including “celebrations that turn negative.”

Raiders split tournament games J-W Staff Reports

The Lawrence Raiders split their two games Saturday in the MB Tournament at Lawrence High, defeating the St. Joe Mustangs 11-3, and falling to the KC Barnstormers — White, 8-3, in a six-inning rain-shortened contest.

Tripp Wright went the distance against the Mustangs to earn his first victory of the summer, and gave the Raiders’ bullpen some much-needed rest according to coach Brad Romme.

“Tripp pitched a heck of a game,” Romme said.

The Raiders had multihit games from Colton Lovelace, Brad Kincaid, Hunter Gudde and Parker Tietjen to help account for 13 total base knocks.

The Raiders fell into a 4-0 hole after two innings against the Barnstormers, and could not fully recover. Kincaid and Zak McAlister recorded two hits apiece.

Two more games are on the slate today for the Raiders to round out the MB tournament. They will play Next Level Baseball at 11:15 a.m., and come back to face KC

Dear Hollywood: Stop getting our hopes up

H

ope is a dangerous thing, and with its neverending stream of sequels and franchise reboots, Hollywood preys on its audience’s hope in the most cynical of ways.

Hope is what drew me to see “Jurassic World,” even though I knew in the back of my mind not to get too hopeful.

First there was the hiring of hot indie writer/ director Colin Trevorrow (“Safety Not Guaranteed”) to make me believe this would not be the same old rehashed story.

Then came the casting of Chris Pratt, recently elevated to leading man status thanks to an unexpectedly warm, funny and charming performance in “Guardians of the Galaxy.”

Plus, the studio pulled a Disneyland/Disney World name upgrade. It’s “Jurassic World” now.

That must mean there are some great new ideas to revive this dinosaur of a franchise!

Sadly, the only real upgrade is exactly the one you’d expect: The CGI is better and there’s more dinosaurs. If that’s all you need to be convinced to see “Jurassic World,” you can stop reading now.

If you are a Hollywood producer, however, please read on. This next idea is for you. I’m not looking for a cut of the royalties or anything — I’m just a concerned citizen who wants to improve your business and my entertainment.

I’m not sure this can be called a flow chart if there’s really only one path, but here goes: How to Decide Whether to Reboot a Franchise: A Flow Chart (in Column Form, so Not Really A Flow Chart at All) Does your reboot add or alter the story in a significant way while retaining the spirit of the first movie? If no, then stop. Don’t prey on our hope. Forget about all the money you’ll make. Just stop.

If yes, then move forward.

Really? It does? I know that’s what you’re telling yourself so you can sleep at night, but come on: A dinosaur genetically engineered to bring more people to a theme park isn’t a significant alteration, it’s exactly the same idea as the first “Jurassic Park.” The only difference is that the park is open already. Do you have a better idea? If not, you must stop now.

Oh no. You’re still here? Why? You think your film retains the spirit of the original? Not even close.

In 1993, the wonder of seeing dinosaurs rendered with convincing CGI was analogous to the wonder of bringing an extinct race of animals back to life. Over 20 years later, nobody cares about that. And don’t think that “nobody cares about dinosaurs anymore” line from Bryce Dallas Howard lets you off the hook. It’s not enough to be self-aware about the pitfalls of making a crappy movie, and then just continue to

OK, you’re stubborn.

I understand. You think the commentary on how audiences always want “bigger” over “better” is new enough. It’s not. It’s window dressing. You still have little kids in danger of being eaten by dinosaurs run amok and a guy who thinks he’s the Dinosaur Whisperer.

If the core of the film is dinosaurs getting out of their pens and terrorizing people, then you do not get to move forward.

Because if this is true, the only place to go is “bigger,” and you’ll think that means more destruction and more violent kills.

And we’ll be so bored, that we’ll appreciate those kills for the briefest of moments — and then feel dirty about it afterward. Because we let hope get the best of us. Again.

Please, I beg of you: stop now.

What, “Terminator: Genisys” opens July 1, and you brought Arnold back? Well, with the right idea…

From left Bryce Dallas Howard, Chris Pratt, Nick Robinson and Ty Simpkins in “Jurassic World” the first 20 minutes and it’s obvious who took the dog, so the film pivots into full-on farce, which is a great decision.

The plot doesn’t make any sense, even though it tries in vain to justify its characters’ silly actions.

There’s no way Abby and Eliott (Brown and Walter) are as dumb as they act, but that becomes increasingly OK as the story continues to spiral out of control.

The couple’s friend Kat (Kate Connor), who refuses to grow up and still dates much younger men, provides a funny and surprisingly dark stream of middle-aged angst. What’s weirder, in the midst of all the madness, a subplot with lonely dog-sitter Jill (Shaina Vorspan) and a schlubby private investigator (Jeff Sloniker) actually develops some surprising tenderness

and sympathy. Tonally, it’s an awkward, sometimes hilarious mix.

“Gone Doggy Gone” is a funny, low-budget indie that’s at its best when it diverts from what is purported to be the main plot. It proves that Brown and Walter are talented comedic writers who aren’t afraid to get more than a little absurd for a laugh.

The writing is less successful when it gets

sappy, but even in those moments, there always seems to be a smart-aleck joke right around the corner, like the very last shot of the film.

‘Love & Mercy’ Now playing at Liberty Hall, “Love & Mercy” is an absolute must-see.

Chronicling two important time periods (the late ’60s and mid-’80s) in the life of Beach Boys leader Brian Wilson, it’s a rarity among music biopics in that it actually spends time on the creation of the music that made the artist famous.

It also sports a structure that’s unique to the genre, which serves to deepen Wilson’s creative challenges and personal problems.

Elizabeth Banks turns in the best performance of her career as Melinda Ledbetter, the woman who pulled Wilson out of a life-threatening situation.

‘Gone Doggy Gone’ Back in 2013, I profiled KU graduate Kasi Brown, who was cowriting, co-starring in and co-directing a comedy called “Gone Doggy Gone” with her creative partner Brandon Walter.

While making its festival run, “Gone Doggy Gone” played at a Free State Festival pre-event earlier this year, and now the movie has a VOD/DVD release date of July 10.

Ostensibly, “Gone Doggy Gone” is about a childless couple who treats their precious dog like a baby to avoid dealing with their own relationship issues. Then the dog is kidnapped.

Weirdly, however, that premise is doled out in

FREE STATE FESTIVAL PREVIEW

Tig Notaro kicks off event-packed week

By Joanna Hlavacek Twitter: @HlavacekJoanna

Lawrence fans geeking out over Tig Notaro, the Grammy-nominated comedian who also happens to be one of the headliners at this year’s Free State Festival, have the event’s artistic director — and fellow Notaro fan — Marlo Angell to thank for her appearance June 22 at the Lawrence Arts Center.

From 7:30 to 10 p.m., the Arts Center will host “An Evening With Tig Notaro,” starting with a standup performance by Notaro followed by a screening of her short film “Clown Service” and a Q&A. “She picked out Tig Notaro as an up-andcoming star,” says Sarah Bishop, Free State Festival director. “Marlo and [curator] Ben Ahlvers have such a good sense of the pulse and what’s going to be hip and exciting for audiences to see.”

Since securing Notaro for the festival (based on a recommendation from comedian Marc Maron, a 2014 Free State headliner), the 44-year-old comic, writer and radio personality has enjoyed a rise in visibility and critical acclaim, Bishop proudly points out.

After a string of successes, 2015 was a particularly big year for Notaro.

In addition to her 2014 Grammy nomination for “Live” — the recording of a 2012 Los Angeles performance in which Notaro discussed her battle with her now-in-remission breast cancer and subsequent personal struggles — Notaro was the subject and executive producer of a documentary about her life, “Tig,” which debuted at this year’s Sundance Film Festival.

Her comedy special “Knock Knock, It’s Tig Notaro” premiered in April on Showtime, with an HBO comedy special — Notaro’s first — on its way. Notaro’s also keeping herself busy working on a memoir, due in 2016.

The following are just a few of the fun and funky events scheduled for this year’s festival. Check out freestatefestival.org for a complete listing and to purchase tickets.

FREE STATE FESTIVAL PREVIEW

Concerts bring week-long party to downtown

By Fally Afani Special to the Journal-World

The arts may be struggling in Kansas, but that’s not the case in Lawrence.

Over the course of just six days, nearly every block of downtown will erupt in colorful celebrations as artists and musicians hit up stages across the area for the Free State Festival.

Although it’s only in its second year, the festival is going big.

“I think that Lawrence is really in a position where we’re just starting to see the real value of the arts in a public space for economic development,” says festival organizer Sarah Bishop. “These big public events bring people from all walks of life together to experience something that’s really fun and inspiring.”

The intense, week-long event organized by the Lawrence Arts Center is more than just an arts festival — it’s a community celebration.

George Clinton and Parliament Funkadelic are set to lead Lawrencians in one epic block party when they play a free show in front of the

“I think we are really interested in names that we think people will recognize, but also trying to bring in diverse artists is important to us so we can give our community access to a wide array of artists” Bishop says.

“Across the board, we’re striving for more diversity in terms of the artists we present. I think that there’s not enough diverse artists that are

practicing, but one of the ways to generate move diverse artists and get their voices heard is to provide access to the diverse artists out there.”

Amidst all the fun and fanfare, organizers hope the festival inspires anyone interested in the arts.

“I think a lot of times, people don’t feel like they can be artists or a famous singer, but that’s something we work really hard on at the Arts

Center,” Bishop says.

“Everyone has creative potential in them. The way to create a more equitable society is to make sure that people from all walks of life have the ability to be creative.”

Buzz-worthy indie films among Free State Festival offerings

By Eric Melin Special to the Journal-World

The last time Lawrence-based producer Jennifer Dreiling and Wamego-based director Steve Balderson worked on a project from conception through postproduction together was in 2004. The movie was “Firecracker,” and it got quite a boost when Roger Ebert gave it a Special Jury Award on his list of best movies of 2005.

“We definitely wanted to work together again, but it wasn’t until we started talking about the idea of ‘El Ganzo’ that it really came into focus for me that I could step away from my other life to help Steve create this story,” Dreiling says.

Her “other life” is her job as a photography and video producer for Hallmark Cards, and the pair’s first project in 10 years is premiering at the Free State Festival at 1 p.m. June 28 at the Lawrence Arts Center.

Balderson, meanwhile, has been making films steadily since then. In addition to appearing at the post-screening Q&A, Balderson is hosting a festival workshop the day before titled “Maverick Filmmaking.”

Balderson took inspiration from his friend, the late Karen Black (who appeared in “Firecracker”) who once told him that being truly alive means living in the present; the unknown.

“For instance, if we know about the road and where it’s going, and that there’s a tree up ahead around the bend, and a town past that, we already know it,” says Balderson. “But if we don’t know what’s on the road, and we don’t know where it’s going, then we have to be really present, because we don’t know.

And in that state, it’s the most wonderful place to be — to not know.”

“El Ganzo” follows two American travelers (Susan Traylor and Anslem Richardson) to the southern tip of Mexico’s Baja California Peninsula and the Hotel El Ganzo. He is an artist struggling with a new breakthrough and she is a damaged woman with a mysterious past.

Balderson and crew

would set out each day seeking that moment, and much of the dialogue and specific interaction between characters would be made up on the spot.

The film has a haunting feel, partially due to regional actor/composer Mark Booker’s haunting piano score, but also due to the knowledge that the hotel and surroundings were wiped out by Hurricane Odile just weeks after shooting wrapped in Los Cabos last August.

“On one hand it’s incredibly sad and devastating, but on the other, we captured that specific moment in time, and the magic of that place and its people — which won’t ever be the same,” Balderson says. “It was really moving to finish the movie. I was in the middle of editing when the news came, and it felt like I was editing a ghost every day — wondering if that person was safe, or if their home was destroyed, or if that image I was looking at would ever be rebuilt or was it gone forever.”

Balderson, Dreiling, Traylor, Richardson, Booker, and cinematographer Daniel Stephens will be present for a Q&A following the June 28 screening.

Buzz-worthy screenings “El Ganzo” is a premiere, but the Free State Festival has an impressive lineup of independent films that have screened elsewhere before making their way to Lawrence.

The Grand Jury and Audience Award winner at this year’s SXSW is firsttime director Trey Shults’ “Krishna,” which screens at 7 p.m. Sunday June 28, at the Arts Center.

“Krishna” is a family affair, as Shults plays himself, and he cast his mother Robyn Fairchild and his aunt Krishna Fairchild, in the title role.

The buzz on this odd, low-budget, dysfunctional family movie, which was shot at Shults’ mother’s house just outside Houston, is deafening.

It played during Critics Week at Cannes, and was just picked up for distribution by A24. A Q&A with the director will follow the screening.

Another buzzy film is the documentary “Call Me Lucky,” directed

by Bobcat Goldthwait,

MORE FILM EVENTS Outreach Film Showcase 6 p.m. June 26, Lawrence Arts Center (free) A showcase of short films produced in conjunction with students from the Boys and Girls Club of Lawrence and Van Go Inc. Youth Film Showcase 11 a.m. June 27, Lawrence Public Library (free) Showcase of short films by and for youths, featuring selections made by students at Lawrence High School and Free State High School, as well as national filmmakers.

“Songs My Brothers Taught Me” 6 p.m. June 24, Liberty Hall Q&A with director Chloe Zhao and actors Jashaun St. John and John Reddy will follow “Funny Bunny” 1 p.m. June 27, Lawrence Arts Center Q&A with director Alison Bagnall will follow “Preggoland” 9 p.m. June 27, Lawrence Arts Center Q&A with screenwriter/actress Sonja Bennett will follow “Four Way Stop” 3:30 p.m. June 28, Lawrence Arts Center Q&A with director Efi Da Silva will follow

which is coming off of a successful run at Sundance this past January.

What starts out as a loving portrait of prickly stand-up comedian Barry Crimmins takes a emotional turn when certain revelations about his past are revealed. Goldthwait has been directing indie features on his own for a while now, and with each picture, he gains new confidence and prowess.

“Call Me Lucky,” which screens at 8 p.m. June 26 at the Arts Center and will be followed by a Q&A with director and subject, is clearly a personal movie for both.

Music films Lawrence is a live music town, and the Free State Festival has done an outstanding job of programming first-rate movies about musicians.

This year is no exception. In addition to a showing of the new documentary “The Damned: Don’t You Wish That We Were Dead,” (6:30 p.m.

June 25, Lawrence Arts Center) which showcases the crazy lives of the U.K. punk cult act, there will be legitimate rock legends in the house.

Following the screening of “The Damned,” director Wes Orshoski (“Lemmy”) and Damned drummer Rat Scabies will

participate in a Q&A. After that, the price of admission includes a free concert by indie-rock godfather Mike Watt and his band The Missingmen.

Both the Jon Ronsonpenned “Frank” and the Elliott Smith doc “Heaven Adores You” have played in Lawrence recently, but not with the Ronson added context and value that the Free State Festival is offering this year.

British author/screenwriter/journalist Ronson will be interviewed on stage at 7 p.m. June 23 Liberty Hall, preceding a 9 p.m. showing of “Frank,” an affecting tale of musical highs and lows that is partially based on his own tenure as a musician, and starring Michael Fassbender as the title character — an enigmatic singer who wears a papier-mache head every day.

The downside of having this much talent at one festival is the conflict of two amazing events happening at the same time.

“Heaven Adores You,” an earnest examination of late songwriter Elliott

Smith’s music, also shows at 7 p.m. June 23, the same time as the Ronson event, at the Arts Center.

That screening will be followed by a concert of his music featuring Lawrence mainstay and Get Up Kids singer Matt Pryor and friends. Technically, if you’ve already seen the films, you could see Ronson speak first at Liberty and then hightail it to LAC and see Pryor play.

Short-film showcases Lastly, there are two short film showcases on June 28 that are full of great potential.

Program one starts at 1:30 p.m. at Liberty Hall and features the short documentary “Queen of Code” by Gillian Jacobs (Britta from“Community”) about a Navy woman who pioneered work on the first programmable computer in the U.S. Also in the program, local filmmakers Misti Boland and Jeremy Osbern have a 3-minute short called “Courtesan” that premiered at Slamdance and has played at film festivals across the country.

There’s also “Calls to Okies,” a short documentary that tells the story behind the funniest, most subversive prank-call tape ever.

If you are of a certain

age and were involved on the indie rock touring band scene in the 1990s, you probably have a third-generation dubbed cassette of this pre-Jerky Boys classic. Both bands I used to tour in wore our tapes out.

In my life and among those in the know, “Calls to Okies” exists on such a vaunted plane that I’m hesitant to finally see the madman behind the genius. But the truth is out there. ​Short Film Showcase 2 follows at 4 p.m., also at Liberty Hall, and features the award-winning short doc “The Gnomist,” about a series of miniature fairy houses that popped up on a walking path in Overland Park. Sharon Liese’s film was a hit at Tribeca, and has been picked up

by CNN Films to show this fall.

Ben and Jacob Burghart’s winning short “Neon Veins: HemmohRAGE” from the most recent Wild West Film Festival is also screening as part of showcase No. 2.

oulevard Brewing Company may have been purchased in 2013 by the Flemish brewery Duvel, but it is still very much a Kansas City institution. For evidence, look no further than next weekend’s Boulevardia festival, a celebration of local music, food, crafts, community organizations, and (of course) beer.

Held in the West Bottoms neighborhood on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, Boulevardia is a family event, with several carnival rides available and kids 12 and under admitted free.

But the chief attraction for most guests will be the beer from Boulevard, Duvel and several other craft brewers, as well as live music on three different stages.

National acts include Mayer Hawthorne, Big Head Todd & The Monsters and The Mowgli’s, with local talent including The Barclay Martin Ensemble, Hearts of Darkness, The Grisly Hand and The Architects.

Most weekend and VIP packages are sold out, but individual day admission is available for $15 at Boulevardia.com.

The festival runs from 5 p.m. to 11 p.m. Friday, 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. Saturday, and 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Sunday.

Brother slacks off when heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s home from college Dear Annie: When my brother â&#x20AC;&#x153;Steveâ&#x20AC;? comes home from college, he stays up until 3 a.m., sleeps until 2 in the afternoon, and leaves his chores and homework until the very last minute.

I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t understand why he doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t keep a regular sleep schedule or take care of his homework and other chores early in the week. Instead, he dumps his laundry on the floor and â&#x20AC;&#x153;forgetsâ&#x20AC;? about it until he has no clothes left, something that stresses him out and makes him lash out at me. He also complains to me about incidents that occurred years ago and still make him angry now.

Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve tried to talk to my mother about it, but I end up sounding like a broken record. Steve manages to be respon-

Annieâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Mailbox

sible for himself at his school, so why doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t that responsibility follow him home? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Pulling My Hair Out Dear Pulling: Because he reverts to his lessresponsible childhood when he is home. Part of moving out of your parentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; house, whether for college or work, is to develop the skills necessary to be independent. This doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t happen overnight.

Steve is trying to grow up, albeit slowly and in

Southern food tour is superfluous You know a show is in trouble when its very premise seems shaky. Hosted by travel writers, food bloggers and brothers Matt and Ted Lee, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Southern Uncovered With the Lee Bros.â&#x20AC;? (7 p.m., Ovation) hopes to revive and rescue the reputation of Southern cooking. From what?

From the unstinting praise and attention it has received for the past generation? I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get it.

Nor do I entirely understand the Lee brothers. Dressed nearly identically in retro-hipster garb, they drive around the South in a perfectly restored mid-20th-century car.

Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s something a tad precious and predictable about that. But maybe Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m just getting old and cranky, what with my occasional urge to smother every hipster with his own beard and drown every food blogger in a vat of hollandaise sauce.

But I digress.

The Lees do travel to some great places. First up, they drop in on an old-school soul food joint outside of their home city of Charleston, South Carolina.

In the kitchen you can see that three generations of women are preparing the dayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fare -- not with the expensive kitchen gadgetry extolled on â&#x20AC;&#x153;MasterChef,â&#x20AC;? but in well-used slow cookers, the kind you might find at WalMart or at a yard sale. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cool, authentic and worth celebrating.

Then the Lees return to form, visiting with a wine expert who stores cases of his Napa Valley good stuff submerged in the waters of Charleston Harbor. Is that a great new idea that challenges stereotypes about Southern culture and cuisine? Or just another expensive indulgence in the name of perfection that makes some of us recoil at the ever-shifting gospels of â&#x20AC;&#x153;foodieâ&#x20AC;? culture?

Perhaps the whole point of the Lees and their show is to demonstrate that the South, beloved for its genuinely good food, can be just as fussy, trendy and insufferable as Williamsburg, Brooklyn, or Portland, Oregon.

Whereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s that vat of hollandaise when you need it?

Tonightâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s other highlights

A showdown between Caiaphas and James on â&#x20AC;&#x153;A.D. The Bible Continuesâ&#x20AC;? (8 p.m., NBC).

Stannis goes on the march on the season finale of â&#x20AC;&#x153;Game of Thronesâ&#x20AC;? (8 p.m., HBO).

A sudden interruption on â&#x20AC;&#x153;Nurse Jackieâ&#x20AC;? (8 p.m., Showtime).

ID serves up vintage paranoia with â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Search for Ted Bundyâ&#x20AC;? (8 p.m.).

spurts, and needs to do it on his own.

So hereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a life lesson for you: You are not responsible for Steveâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s bad habits, whether or not he succeeds, or how stressed he becomes. Do your best to ignore those things, absent yourself or express sympathy while remaining neutral. If he brings up things from the past, respond the same way. But please, do not engage in an argument. It serves no purpose and will only make you miserable.

Dear Annie: My wife recently passed away after nearly 60 years together. I miss her more than words can say.

While selecting a vase at the funeral parlor to hold my wifeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ashes, I noticed matching miniature vases. I ordered six, three for our grown children and three for

JACQUELINE BIGARâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S STARS

my wifeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sisters. My children were delighted to receive them.

The problem is, my wifeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sisters consider my gift to be in extremely poor taste and I fear it may have caused irreparable damage to our relationship. What I thought would be a visible and lasting remembrance of their loving sister has turned ugly.

Did my grief affect my judgment? Was I out of line? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Heartbroken Brother-in-Law Dear Heartbroken: Your gift was thoughtful and kind, but perhaps too difficult for your wifeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sisters to process right now. Let them know you value the relationship, and ask how to make things better. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Send questions to anniesmailbox@comcast.net, or Annieâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Mailbox, P.O.

For Sunday, June 14: This year you display unusual creativity and mental astuteness.

Others admire your strengths and often come to you for advice. If you are single, your charisma attracts admirers like honey attracts a bear. If you are attached, make more time for your sweetie, as he or she easily could feel left out.

The stars show the kind of day youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult Aries (March 21-April 19) You might be too energized for others this morning.

Tonight: Cut loose with friends.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) You suddenly might feel a lack of support from someone you normally count on. Tonight: Listen to someone elseâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s opinion.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) A loved one or key associate who has been difficult might be more prone to lightening up. Tonight: Where the action is.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) You see a situation differently from a partner. A new love interests suddenly could become challenging. Tonight: Take a night off.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) You have a vision of a perfect Sunday. Do what you can to create this type of day. Tonight: Live it up now.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be in a position where youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d feel much better if

you could just kick back. Tonight: Know that you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t need to explain yourself.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) How you deal with a loved one could change dramatically once you gain a new perspective. Tonight: You have reason to celebrate!

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Follow through on a responsibility. You might start to feel slightly overwhelmed, but donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t worry so much. Tonight: Out till the wee hours.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Stay upbeat. You can trust a dear friend or loved one to make the right choices. Tonight: Get with the program.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Defer to a loved one, especially if he or she frequently expresses a desire to indulge you.

Tonight: Whatever you do, have fun.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Your playfulness will come across as seductive. Recognize that you might be stirring the pot. Tonight: Let yourself be a wild thing.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) You have a way of pacing yourself so that you can do everything you want. Tonight: Get some extra zzzâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s.
