Kansas school funding is still a ‘wild card’

Fast facts l Started in fall 2000 with 40 students at Sias International University, a private university in Henan Province (affiliated with public Zhengzhou University). l Added a program at Shenyang Normal University, a public university in Liaoning Province. l Last semester there were 3,200 students enrolled. By comparison, the main campus in Hays has about 4,400. l 1,185 students graduated this spring.

More than 8,000 have graduated since the program’s inception. l Five bachelor’s degrees are offered: business administration, organizational leadership, global business English, information networking and technology and political science.

Graduates get dual degrees from FHSU and the Chinese university FHSU has partnered with.

the university, then they shouldn’t be doing that.”

It does fit for Fort Hays State, Elliott said.

FHSU aims to be a “regional university with a global outlook” and output “forward thinking, world ready” graduates, according to its International Partnerships website.

At graduation, Newton was struck by how Chinese students seemed to operate under an assumption that they are “global citizens,” even introducing themselves by both their Chinese and American names.

“We need to compete globally,” Newton said.

“They are, in other countries, preparing their young people to perform in a global market, and that entails getting to know who you’re going to be working with.”

American dream For Chinese students, FHSU provides the prestige of an American degree, Elliott said.

“It’s hard for us to completely understand that,” Elliott said. “All around the world, an American education is revered.”

Stateside universities — including Kansas University — are ramping up efforts to recruit international students to their campuses, both for their tuition dollars and the diversity they bring.

But many foreign students could never afford to come here, Elliott said. That includes lower income and rural Chinese students in the FHSU program.

“Many of them have this dream of being able to study abroad,” Elliott said.

“Many of them would love to come to America, and ideally they want to come to an Ivy League school.

“That’s their dream.”

A FHSU degree does open doors for Chinese students, Elliott said.

The China program has been a feeder for FHSU’s own graduate program in

L awrence J ournal -W orld Hays, and it’s helped other students get into other American graduate schools — even a few Ivy League, she said.

The degree — and English skills and Western awareness that come with it — also helps graduates land jobs with corporations and non-governmental organizations or as entrepreneurs in China or elsewhere, she said.

Challenges, censorship A recently publicized study by the British Council concluded that research and monitoring of transnational education programs is not keeping pace with the worldwide boom in such programs.

FHSU’s China program is not without challenges, Elliott said.

Just like home, Elliott said, FHSU has occasionally had to fail students and fire faculty.

The biggest challenges, though, are logistical.

Managing the program is made harder by China’s erratic Internet service (including the government blocking sites such as Gmail and Facebook). Also, instead of complying with just one set of regulations, FHSU programs must meet the accreditation requirements of both China and the United States.

Elliott said FHSU faced a steep learning curve especially in its first years, which is why the program started small with just 40 students. However, she said the school is now seen as a model for other university partnerships.

Censorship has not been a problem, Elliott said.

Not unlike the United States, faculty are reminded not to discuss their personal religious beliefs in the classroom but can engage in discussion with students on their own time, Elliott said. Likewise, she said, they are reminded not to post offensive content on social media, obeying the rules as “guests” of China.

In 2001, the week of a spy plane incident between China and the United States, the Chinese government asked to review syllabi, textbooks and faculty credentials for FHSU courses, Elliott said. But all “passed,” no such reviews have been requested since and the Chinese government has never requested removal of any course content.

That includes “Citizen Kane” in a cinema class and content that could be considered sensitive in classes that FHSU requires for its political science degree, such as American Government, American Constitution and Political Philosophy.

“Never do we compromise the credentials that students need to complete a degree,” Elliott said.

at a Douglas County Democratic Party event at the Lawrence Arts Center, 940 New Hampshire St. Party officials had billed the event as a discussion about the “Kansas Legislature fiasco.�

The session, which lasted a record-breaking 113 days, ended June 12 after lawmakers approved a $384 million tax package that was needed to close the state’s projected $400 million budget gap.

That tax package included raising the state sales tax, including the tax on food, to 6.5 percent; raising cigarette taxes by 50 cents a pack; repealing or reducing most itemized deductions; and delaying for two years further income tax cuts that were scheduled to take effect Jan. 1.

Even with that, the budget and tax package still requires Brownback to make about $50 million in further spending cuts in order to leave the state with a positive balance in its bank account at the end of the next fiscal year.

However, mainly because of a Brownback veto threat, it did not reimpose income taxes on more than 330,000 business owners whose non-wage income was exempted from income taxes in 2012; nor did it reverse any of the massive cuts in tax rates that were enacted that same year.

Democrats have argued the sales tax increase will

That’s because most other states either exempt food from their sales tax or tax it at a much lower rate than other items.

Rep. Barbara Ballard said it was the fight over taxes that made the session drag on for so long. “We could easily solve this problem, easily solve it, if we would no longer give income tax breaks to 330,000 people,� Ballard said.

Republican split Republicans actually offered one tax plan that would have reimposed a minimal income tax of 2.7 percent on those business owners. It also would have lowered the sales tax on food to 5.7 percent.

of the community and its willingness to embrace things not of the norm. “I think the fact that Lawrence is a community where unusual sports can thrive says a lot about it,� she said.

The Kansas Quidditch players, making do without magic, played on the grass instead of in the air, but in homage to flying broomsticks clasped a length of plastic piping in one hand as they tried to throw a volleyball (quaffle) through one of three hoops without being pegged by a dodgeball (bludger). It’s like basketball, dodgeball and rugby combined, said Max Wallerstedt, a member of the KU Club Quidditch team. “It has a lot of techniques and skills you’d need in any sport,� he said.

In addition to Watkins, the Kansas Humanities Council and the City of Lawrence Parks and Recreation also partnered for the event, which was sponsored by Hometown

crats for not offering any kind of plan of their own.

But Sen. Tom Holland of Baldwin City said Democrats, along with a group of about 17 moderate Republicans, would not accept anything less than a full repeal of the tax cuts enacted in 2012. “There is a cadre of people in both the Senate and the House, myself included, who were like, if we can’t repeal the 2012 (tax cuts) where you get rid of that exemption on business income and basically reverse out those income tax rates, we’re not going to support any-

thing. Because that’s how we got here,� Holland said.

age are really about $100 million out of balance because the governor still has to cut $50 million out of the budget and because it’s doubtful that some of the minor tax provisions in the bill will actually produce the revenues that are expected.

Furthermore, he said, if one counts the roughly $400 million that was swept out of the highway fund and other state funds to shore up the budget, and the possibility that the Kansas Supreme Court will order a big increase in K-12 education funding, the amount needed to adequately fund the budget shortfall is closer to $1 billion.

Sen. Marci Francisco spoke briefly to the gathering before she had to leave for another event.

She said one of her major objections to the tax bill was cutting the itemized deduction for property taxes paid in half. “I don’t mind a lot of things,� she said. “I can even understand that we may want to have people pay taxes on their mortgage interest. But I cannot believe that you should have to add back half of your property tax payment and pay income tax on that. I don’t think there’s anyone who feels like the more property tax you pay in Kansas, the more income tax you pay.�

Many lawmakers will return to the Statehouse Friday, June 26, for the ceremonial “sine die� closing of the session. At that time, lawmakers will try to pass one more bill, fixing a technical error in the tax bill that imposes a property tax lid on cities and counties.

Our fathers: Journal-World guys share some dad experiences Tom Keegan If your goal as a father is to be considered “cool” by your children, chase a more realistic dream.

You know, like, buy a Powerball ticket, try to catch the wind, reverse time to redo mistakes.

Just don’t fool yourself into thinking you ever will be viewed as “cool” in the eyes of your children.

The reminders, dealt from all four of our children, came steadily, following the moving van from California to Illinois to Maryland to Connecticut to Kansas.

After playing one of his baseball games for Norwalk (Connecticut) High, John couldn’t wait to make it home to ask his mother, my wife, Angie: “Was Dad trying to embarrass me wearing those sunglasses?”

For the record, I was not. I actually thought they were cool. At some point decades ago they probably were.

Same house, different day. Jimmy couldn’t wait for John to walk through the front door so he could break the big news.

“John, you missed it,” Jimmy said, eyes flyingsaucer wide, “Dad got into a wicked argument with a telephone recording: ‘Give me a human being! I want to talk to a human being!’ It was hilarious.”

But not cool.

After our daughter Ellen and I had completed one of our drives from Lawrence to Skaneateles Lake in upstate New York, Angie asked Ellen how she enjoyed the trip.

“Dad listened to the same Cat Stevens CD the whole drive!” came the reply.

Translation: The trip was awful. Can’t I just fly with you next time?

Devoid of musical talent, I was fired in seventh grade by my guitar teacher, who said, “You know, I’ve seen you play basketball. You’re not too bad. You probably should stick to that.”

Jimmy, a drummer, and Andy, a bass player, play music better than basketball. So I thought I’d worm my way into their world by suggesting a band name. I was sure I nailed it: “Dipstick Dungeon.”

Andy: “What’s the back story?”

Me: “You guys all work in a garage, changing oil all day and the place is like a Dipstick Dungeon to you.”

Andy: “One problem: None of us work in a garage. None of us change oil.”

OK, I get it. If I were a soft drink I’d be the UnCoola.

Oh well, it’s not important to be cool. It is important to be there.

At John’s basketball and baseball games, Andy’s football games, Andy and Jimmy’s jam sessions with their instructors, at the dinner table eating meals cooked by Jimmy, at Ellen’s plays, concerts and swim meets.

Eventually, they’ll fig-

As I head into my first Father’s Day as a parent, I can proudly say not only does my devotion grow as quickly as Aviva, but also I have neither dropped her nor allowed her to pick up and eat anything that would bring her harm.

At this early stage in our relationship, I’m discovering my fondness for her fuels the mostly irrational fears that accompany caring for a child. The last thing you want is for your kid to experience any pain, and the older she gets the more I realize how impossible that soon will become.

Once she graduates from scooting to crawling, then on to the realm of walking and running, some bumps and bruises are inevitable.

And there’s nothing I can do about that — regardless of how many padded edges and gates we put in place around her.

As long as my wife, Sarah, and I help her navigate the world and continue adoring her more than she’ll ever know, I’m pretty

sure we’ll all enjoy every moment of the process.

A couple of weeks ago, the three of us went with my sister and a friend to Kauffman Stadium for a Royals game. My wife likes to joke about my disdain for arriving at sporting events late and/or leaving them early. But on that particular steamy Sunday afternoon, we missed the first inning because we wanted to let our infant finish her nap. And before we left in the sixth inning to whisk her away for more sleep at home, Aviva and I navigated the crowds on the shaded, breezy concourse, away from our baking-hot seats.

A daughter and a sports writer enjoying each other’s company. Both blissfully unaware of the baseball game going on within earshot.

Because only one of us can speak at this point, I talked, together we made sounds and laughed, and occasionally either of us looked down toward the field when cheers distracted us.

Both of us — as far as I could tell — loved the moment. And no one got hurt.

LAWRENCE JOURNAL-WORLD REPORTER CHAD LAWHORN, playing the role of a victim having trouble breathing because of exposure to a chemical spill, coughs as he approaches emergency room staff outside Lawrence Memorial Hospital during a large-scale disaster training exercise Thursday.

Some past ones have been a crop duster that accidentally dropped its load over a large group of people, a large-scale tornado, and one scenario that seems ready-made for the big screen. For some reason prisoners had to be transferred out of the Douglas County Jail. They were going to be temporally housed at the Douglas County Fairgrounds, but then a bus transporting the prisoners was involved in an accident.

Oh my, sometimes the twists and turns just keep coming in a disaster scenario.

There are a few in this one. Dinneen is briefing the group of volunteer victims, and asks if any of us know another language. One member of the group knows Swahili. She instructs the volunteer to speak Swahili when she enters the ER. She tells others of us not to overact our parts. I don’t know why you are looking at me. She actually is talking to 19-year old volunteer Amanda Sharp, a KU student who hopes to go into the medical field. She was one of the handful of volunteers who

hospital.

Whether it was luck or something else, chlorine gas was little match for me. LMH crews monitored my vitals, “gave” me some oxygen and some medicine for nausea and told me I would soon be feeling better. (I already knew I would soon be feeling better. Volunteers got free lunch in the LMH cafeteria.)

But I did my best to try to put the health professionals to the test. I decided that chlorine gas made Sunset Fifty a bit grumpy.

I asked when the @$#& are we going to get inside the emergency room? I asked why the @$#& was someone driving around with this chlorine gas in the first place? And then came the nice registration lady who sought my address and other such information. That’s when it really hit me what Sunset Fifty’s big concern was.

“You’re not going to bill me for this? ” I ask. “I didn’t do this.”

Sunset is a little slow to the concept of natural disasters, acts of God and other things out of his control. Nonetheless, every great actor has to have a

went through the moulage station to get some fake wounds. She was hoping for even more than she got.

“I would have been fine with an arm hanging off, but I don’t know that they can do that,” she says.

Some roles have drama built into their parts. Tate Bremenkamp, a 20-year old KU student, is assigned the role of being the first patient to arrive at the hospital. He’s instructed to collapse outside the ER entrance.

Tate says the role was a lot of fun, but also eyeopening.

“Believe me, I hammed it up,” Tate says. “But it was startling to see the guys come out of the hospital in the big hazmat suits. It made you remember that this could be real someday.”

As for me, I spent a little time standing outside the entrance to the LMH emergency room breathing into a barf bag.

Patients were triaged outside, and some who were exposed to the gas in significant quantities were required to go through a decontamination shower before they entered the

catch phrase, and I had found two: “I’m not paying for this,” and “I’m going to sue someone’s @$#&.” I may also have said something about never doing laundry again.

I’m happy to report that the staff handled it all very professionally. They checked on my well-being, and professionally ignored my ranting questions. It is almost like they had been to a training session hosted by my wife and kids.

Everybody I talked with was struck with the professionalism of those involved in the exercise. I was too, but that is not the thought that stuck with me the longest. I kept coming back to the idea that there are people — who for the good of this community — have to think about some awful things.

Let’s face it, it is difficult to even mention the possibility that a shooter will come to a Lawrence elementary school and do the unspeakable. But it can’t be unspoken if you are in the business of planning for disasters and tragedies. It has to be thought about, and in a lot of detail.

“I think most of us do this because we have a passion for it,” Smith says.

“My passion is to make sure our community is resilient. We want to make sure that we can respond, and most importantly, recover from anything that happens.”

After watching the men and women in action, I know I feel better about it.

There are a whole lot of us in Lawrence who are ready to be resilient.

Tuition march No matter how justified it may be, rising university tuition is in danger of making higher education inaccessible to many worthy students.

T

he upward march of tuition costs continues at state universities.

Under orders from state legislators and the Kansas Board of Regents, all six state universities held their combined increase in tuition and fees to 3.6 percent for the coming academic year.

That’s lower than increases approved in many recent years, but it continues a trend that is putting a university degree financially out of reach for many students.

University leaders and regents say the increases are needed to offset the decline in the percentage of university budgets covered by state funding, which certainly is reasonable, but the huge increases in the cost of higher education over the last several decades still are shocking. Tuition at Kansas University is more than five times what it was 40 years ago. An entering Kansas freshman at KU will pay tuition of more than $5,000 a semester this fall.

In a positive development, KU freshmen, for the first time this fall, will be able to opt out of the compact tuition program that guarantees they will pay the same tuition for four years. KU freshmen who enter the compact tuition program will pay $5,412 per semester. Freshmen who opt out of that program and other non-compact students will pay $5,028. The compact tuition is a good deal for students who earn a degree in four years, but it raises the cost for students who, for any reason, are unable to do that. It’s good to let families choose whether to enter the compact program.

The cost of a college education is forcing many families to make difficult financial choices. What used to be a manageable expense now is driving many families and students to assume debts that will take many years to pay off. A college education still has value, but many would-be students are having to think twice about making that investment. Taking basic courses at a community college before attending the university or simply choosing to pursue a two-year technical degree can become attractive options.

Having the Kansas Legislature dictate tuition limits, as it did this year, takes away a key responsibility of the Board of Regents and state universities. Nonetheless, the fact that the cost of higher education continues to rise so dramatically should concern public university officials in Kansas and across the nation. It certainly concerns the students and families who must pay tuition.

Key U.S. allies in Iraq not in Baghdad Washington — It’s time for a new strategy in Iraq and Syria. It begins by admitting that the old borders are gone, that a unified Syria or Iraq will never be reconstituted, that the Sykes-Picot map is defunct.

We may not want to enunciate that policy officially.

After all, it does contradict the principle that colonial borders be maintained no matter how insanely drawn, the alternative being almost universally worse. Nonetheless, in Mesopotamia, balkanization is the only way to go.

Because it has already happened and will not be reversed. In Iraq, for example, we are reaping one disaster after another by pretending that the Baghdad government — deeply sectarian, divisive and beholden to Iran — should be the center of our policy and the conduit for all military aid.

Look at Fallujah, Mosul, Ramadi. The Iraqi army is a farce. It sees the enemy and flees, leaving its weapons behind. “The ISF was not driven out of Ramadi. They drove out of Ramadi,” said the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. Our own secretary of defense admitted that “the Iraqi forces just showed no will to fight.”

We can train them forever. The problem is one of will. They don’t want to fight. And why should they?

They are led by commanders who are corrupt, sectarian and incompetent.

What to do? Redirect our efforts to friendly forces

Charles Krauthammer letters@charleskrauthammer.com

“

These successes suggest a new U.S. strategy. Abandon our anachronistic fealty to the central Iraqi government (now largely under Iran’s sway anyway) and begin supplying the Iraqi Kurds in a direct, 24-hour Berlin-style airlift.”

deeply committed to the fight, beginning with the Kurds, who have the will, the skill and have demonstrated considerable success. This year alone, they have taken back more than 500 Christian and Kurdish towns from the Islamic State. Unlike the Iraqi army, however, they are starved for weapons because, absurdly, we send them through Baghdad, which sends along only a trickle.

This week, more Kurdish success. With U.S. air support, Syrian Kurds captured the strategic town of Tal Abyad from the Islamic State.

Which is important for two reasons. Tal Abyad controls the road connecting the ter-

ror group’s capital of Raqqa to Turkey, from which it receives fighters, weapons and supplies. Tal Abyad is “a lung through which [the Islamic State] breathed and connected to the outside world,” said Kurdish commander Haqi Kobane.

Moreover, Tal Abyad helps link isolated Kurdish areas in the Syrian north into a contiguous territory, like Iraqi Kurdistan. Which suggests that this territory could function as precisely the kind of long-advocated Syrian “safe zone” from which to operate against both the Islamic State and the Bashar al-Assad regime.

More good news comes from another battle line.

Last week, the Free Syrian Army’s Southern Front, backed by and trained in Jordan, drove the Syrian government out of its last major base in eastern Daraa province, less than 60 miles from Damascus.

These successes suggest a new U.S. strategy. Abandon our anachronistic fealty to the central Iraqi government (now largely under Iran’s sway anyway) and begin supplying the Iraqi Kurds in a direct, 24-hour Berlin-style airlift. And in Syria, intensify our training, equipping and air support for the now-developing Kurdish safe zone.

Similarly, through Jordan, for the FSA Southern Front.

In theory, we should be giving similar direct aid to friendly Sunni tribesmen in Iraq whose Anbar Awakening, brilliantly joined by Gen. David Petraeus’ surge,

utterly defeated the Islamic State progenitor, al-Qaida in Iraq, in 2006-07. The problem is, having been abandoned by us once, when Obama liquidated our presence in 2011, why should the Sunnis ever trust us again?

As for the Iraqi army, we can go through the motions, but the best we can hope for is wobbly containment, ultimately guaranteed by Iranian proxies. Not a happy prospect, but the best that we can do having forfeited our dominant position in Iraq in 2011.

At the time, Iraq was a functioning state. That state is now gone. We should not expend treasure or risk blood trying to resurrect it.

Our objective right now is to defeat the Islamic State and to ensure the fall of the Assad regime. That does not require an American invasion. It does require recognizing reality and massively supporting our few genuine allies on the ground.

On Wednesday, Defense Secretary Ashton Carter testified that we won’t quite meet our objective of training 24,000 Iraqi troops by this fall. Why? A recruitment problem. Iraqis don’t seem to want to join. We are 17,000 short.

It’s a fool’s errand anyway. If we need to pretend to support the Baghdad government, fine. But our actual strategy should be to circumvent it and help our real allies carry the fight.

Pope makes compelling case on climate There is something I have never understood about the argument over global warming.

That argument was, of course, renewed last week with the leaking, and then the official release, of a new papal letter excoriating human mistreatment of “our common home.” In this latest encyclical, Pope Francis calls for a “bold, cultural revolution” to stem the harm done to the planet from warming that is occurring “mainly as a result of human activity.”

He condemns a fixation on technological advance at the cost of the planet’s health — and the “magical” idea that the free market can reverse this damage if corporations and individuals enjoy a sufficient increase in profits. The refusal to accept that Earth’s resources are finite has led, the letter says, to “the planet being squeezed dry at every limit.”

Nor does all humanity suffer the consequences equally. Pope Francis writes that while global warming is disproportionately caused by wealthier nations, its effects are disproportionately borne by poorer ones.

He calls upon the world to come together and reach a consensus for change.

“Doomsday predictions can

Leonard Pitts Jr. lpitts@miamiherald.com

“

He calls upon the world to come together and reach a consensus for change.

‘Doomsday predictions can no longer be met with irony or disdain,’ he writes.” no longer be met with irony or disdain,” he writes.

In one particularly anguished paragraph, the pope tells us the Earth is our sister and this sister “now cries out to us because of the harm we have inflicted on her by our irresponsible use and abuse of the goods with which God has endowed her. We have come to see ourselves as her lords and masters, entitled to plunder her at will. The violence present in our hearts, wounded by sin, is also reflected in the symptoms of sickness evident in the soil,

in the water, in the air and in all forms of human life.” He calls Earth “among the most abandoned and maltreated of our poor.”

It is a powerful and affecting passage — more so, perhaps, if one were to go read it aloud on some shrunken Alaskan ice floe, some cracked California lake bed, some Miami Beach street flooded on a sunny day, some denuded West Virginia deathscape where a mountaintop once lived.

Not that everyone has been moved. To the contrary, the predictable people responded to the papal appeal in the predictable ways.

Rush Limbaugh accused the pontiff of Marxism while Sen. James Inhofe advised that, “The pope ought to stay with his job, and we’ll stay with ours.” He was echoed by presidential wannabes Jeb Bush and Rick Santorum, the latter advising Pope Francis to “leave science to the scientists.”

So here’s what I don’t get.

It seems to me we are dealing with competing worstcase scenarios.

One, pushed by the political right, holds that the imposition of restrictions and regulations to arrest climate change would cripple businesses with need-

less expenses because climate change is the biggest bust since Geraldo Rivera opened Al Capone’s vault.

A blue ribbon panel actually said last year that we face “significant economic risks” from not dealing with the phenomenon, but concede the scenario for argument’s sake: Climate change turns out to be a costly hoax.

That’s not a great outcome, granted. But consider the other worst-case scenario: We do nothing. It turns out the overwhelming consensus of the scientific community was right and we are left scrambling for dwindling resources on a dying planet.

In other words, one “worstcase scenario,” we survive, albeit economically weakened.

The other, we do not survive at all. It’s a moral and intellectual travesty that some of us find the choice between the two so difficult — and a sign of moral and intellectual courage that the pope does not. It isn’t that complicated, after all. We are asked, in effect, to decide between future regrets: One: We could have saved some money and didn’t.

Two: We could have saved the planet — and failed.

How is that even a debate?

Keep animals’ anxiety issues at bay this Fourth of July S

ummer is a fun time for dogs and owners alike, but the Fourth of July has become notorious for causing anxiety in many of our canine friends.

Anxiety caused by loud noises is quite common and can result in animal behaviors such as desperately trying to hide, destroying property and escaping from yards, only to get lost. At the Lawrence Humane Society, we see an influx of lost dogs each year following the holiday that panicked and fled their yards when hearing the loud pops and cracks of fireworks.

If you know a loud event is coming, be it a thunderstorm or Fourth of July fireworks, the best way to spare your pet from the anxiety of the event is to remove him or her from the environment, if possible.

Putting your anxious pet into an interior room of the house with the television or radio on can be just the antidote for a loud fireworks display.

Your presence may also be reassuring and could provide additional distraction from all of the

Kansas State leader to give his raise to university Manhattan (ap) — The president of Kansas State University says he’s giving the money he would make in a raise to be used elsewhere at the university.

WIBW-TV reports that President Kirk Schulz announced on the university’s website he won’t keep the 2 percent raise

approved by the state’s Board of Regents on Thursday.

Schulz thanked the Regents for the raise and credits them with backing his K-State 2025 initiative. But he says he’s turning the raise over because the university couldn’t provide faculty and staff raises, too.

Schulz says he’ll put the amount of money of his raise toward supporting the University Support Staff Awards program.

Students at most state universities in the state will also see their tuition and fees increase by no more than 3.6 percent this fall.

Sixth mass extinction underway; study blames humans Katharine Lackey USA TODAY

The Earth’s sixth mass extinction is already underway — and humans are the driving force behind it, according to a new study.

“Recent extinction rates are unprecedented in human history and highly unusual in Earth’s history,” according to a study published this weekend in the journal Science Advances.

Researchers said they used used “extremely conservative assumptions” to determine extinction rates that prevailed in the

past five annihilation events.

Still, they found the average rate of vertebrate species lost over the past century was up to 114 times higher than normal.

For example, about 477 vertebrate species have gone extinct since 1900, according to the study. Based on previous extinctions, only nine species would have been expected to die off in the same time frame had it not been for mankind’s involvement.

“These estimates reveal an exceptionally rapid loss of biodiversity over the last few centuries, indicating that a sixth mass extinction is already underway,” the

study reported.

The previous five mass extinctions happened before mankind walked the Earth, and are believed to have been mainly caused by natural disasters, such as asteroid impacts and volcanic eruptions. The last mass extinction happened some 65 million years ago, killing off the dinosaurs.

Among the World Wildlife Fund’s critically endangered species — those at the most at risk of going extinct today — are the Amur leopard, black rhino, leatherback turtle, Sumatran tiger, and western lowland gorilla.

OPM checks on hires ongoing v CONTINUED FROM 1B

of at least 4.2 million federal employees.

The issue of contractor vulnerability is underscored by the fact that OPM’s current contractor — KeyPoint Government Solutions of Colorado — was hacked last year. That attack followed one against OPM’s previous contractor, Virginia-based USIS, which also occurred in 2014.

Cummings said those hacks show that OPM did not adequately monitor and audit the contractors. “I don’t think OPM should stop using contractors, but we do need to reassess our over-reliance on contractors, especially for conducting core government functions like granting security clearances,” the congressman said.

While the FBI and other government officials investigate the OPM hack, agency officials said they are continuing to process background checks on job applicants needing security clearance.

Agencies who employ workers with security clearances say those clearances are still in place.

“Background checks continue to be processed,” said OPM press secretary Samuel Schumach. “At this time, we have no indications that the actor (hacker) remains in the OPM networks.”

“We have no indications that the (hacker) remains in the OPM networks.”

Samuel Schumach, OPM press secretary

He said the enhanced security measures that helped OPM discover the hack in April “have allowed us to identify, isolate, and prevent even sophisticated actors who are using new techniques.”

KeyPoint, the contractor used

by OPM now, was hacked last year, OPM officials revealed in December. The agency said there was “no conclusive evidence” to confirm that sensitive information was stolen. However, OPM notified more than 48,000 federal workers that their personal data may have been exposed.

That breach came just a few months after OPM decided against renewing its contract with USIS. KeyPoint replaced USIS, which had problems beyond being hacked. The U.S. Justice Department, in a complaint filed last year, has accused USIS of submitting at least 665,000 incomplete background checks that the company claimed were complete in order to earn bonus pay for high performance numbers.

Neither USIS nor KeyPoint would comment for this story.

Ultimately, the responsibility to prevent hacks lies with the government, whether it employs contractors or not, said Robert Lentz, former deputy assistant secretary of defense for cyber issues in the Office of the Secretary of Defense.

A place where some ‘cling to old ideas’

Officials are investigating a possible sighting of men who may fit the description of the two convicted killers who escaped from a New York prison this month.

The Allegany County, N.Y., Sheriff’s Office said Saturday their deputies and other local police agencies are assisting New York State Police in a search for killers Richard Matt, 48, and David Sweat, 34.

On Saturday afternoon, a witness spotted two men along a railroad line that runs along Route 20 in the Town of Friendship, New York State Police said in a statement. While this is an unconfirmed sighting, police are asking residents who live in this area along the New York-Pennsylvania border to be on alert.

Police are also searching cars at the Friendship/Bolivar exit of the Interstate 86.

The sighting comes a week after Matt and Sweat cut their way out of a cell at Clinton Correctional Facility. They were discovered missing June 7.

Earlier this week, authorities

of all races live next door to each other and share similar ideals. Reminders of the Civil War and the failed slave rebellion of Denmark Vesey dot the city that today features trendy restaurants, a happening nightlife and gentrified neighborhoods.

“This hateful person came to this community with some crazy idea that he would be able to divide and all he did was make us more united and love each other even more,” Charleston Mayor Joseph Riley Jr. said.

“This community wants to come together in prayer and unity and help each other — that’s the way it is in Charleston and in the low country,” he added, referring to southern parts of the state.

Former North Carolina state senator Malcolm Graham, 52, grew up in Charleston with his sister, Cynthia Hurd, who was killed Wednesday. He remembers playing on somewhat dilapidated tennis courts with other blacks as white players served on better maintained spaces. His mother worked as a domestic for a white family, a sign of the times, he said.

But over the years, Charleston evolved into a different sort of city, one that his older sister loved and loyally lived in all her life, he said.

“What happened at the church has nothing to do with Charleston,” Graham said. “It has everything to do with hate. ... His action speaks to a larger issue of race nationwide.”

Still, lingering prejudices continue to cloud some minds in this Southern city, said John Winthrop, 79, a tree farmer and mutual funds trustee who has lived in Charleston since 1988. Winthrop, who is white, said he regrets not

making more black acquaintances and hopes last week’s shooting will inspire people to develop more interracial relationships.

“There is a hard core of people who haven’t had too many experiences outside the state who tend to cling to their old ideas,” he said.

“The Confederate flag problem has to be faced up to. That statement won’t make me many friends in Charleston among the white community, but that’s the way I feel.”

Last week’s tragic events reignited a national debate about whether South Carolina should stop flying the Confederate flag at its state Capitol. NAACP President Cornell William Brooks wants companies that do business in the state to push for its removal.

He, like Winthrop, also believes what happened in Charleston reflects a troublesome culture that plagues the state and the nation.

“South Carolina does have a

tradition dating back to Antebellum days of racism,” Brooks said.

“We don’t want to single out the state as being uniquely bad. But, we do want to single out the state for being a candidate for a major set of reforms in terms of addressing bias and bigotry.”

Fort Sumter, the site of the first shots fired in the Civil War, sits just half a mile from Emanuel AME Church. It’s a reminder to many that Charleston holds a special place in history and in the peculiar institution’s role.

On Saturday, Graham sat crying across from one of the libraries where his sister spent 31 years working. He reflected on how she would have embodied the characteristics of the city she loved had she survived the attack.

“She would have been comforting those families,” he said through tears. “She would have been a part of that leadership group trying to pull the community back together.”

16 inches thick,” Johnny Fotsch told CBS News.

Scientists believe patches of warm water are drawing the crabs north from their primary habitat near Baja, California.

“Typically such strandings of these species in large numbers are due to warm water intrusions,” Linsey Sala, collection manager for the Pelagic Invertebrates Collection at Scripps Institution of Oceanography, UC San Diego, said in a statement on the institution’s website.

The critters, which die once they’ve been beached unless the tide takes them back out, have been showing up along the San Diego coastline for the past several weeks.

Donna Kalez, general manager of Dana Wharf Sportfishing, told the Orange County Register her boat captains had been seeing the crabs in the ocean for a while and knew it was only a matter of time before they washed up.

“I think it’s kind of cool,” she told the paper. “It’s a phenomenon you won’t see for a long time. It’s sad they’re going to die, but there’s nothing you can do.”

NATION ON POLITICS Cooper Allen @coopallen USA TODAY

Jeb Bush made his long-expected announcement that he was running for president. And someone else you might have heard of also joined the race (more on that later). Other news from the world of politics:

CHARLESTON SHOOTING

CONFEDERATE FLAG PROTEST GAINS MOMENTUM

The historic Emanuel AME Church.

CANDIDATES MOURN CHARLESTON, S.C., VICTIMS Politics mostly took a pause early Thursday, as 2016 presidential aspirants addressed the previous night’s mass shooting at a historic black church in Charleston, S.C., that left nine people dead. A sampling of some responses: “There are bad people in this world who are motivated by hate,” said Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina.

Republican Jeb Bush canceled campaign events in the city, saying he and his wife, Columba, “mourn today with the Emanuel AME Church and the families of the victims of this terrible crime.”

The Democratic presidential front-runner, Hillary Clinton, tweeted: “Heartbreaking news from Charleston — my thoughts and prayers are with you all.”

JEB BUSH ‘SLOW JAMS’ WITH JIMMY FALLON Bush dropped by “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon” a day after making his announcement official in Miami on Monday. On top of an interview, the former Florida governor participated in a long-running bit of Fallon’s when he slowjammed the news.

“After months of being a total caucus tease / Jeb finally made up his mind and quit beating around the bush,” Fallon jams at one point.

During the interview itself, Bush was asked, naturally, about his father and GETTY IMAGES brother. He Jeb Bush said he couldn’t compare to his father, President George H.W. Bush, whom he called “the most perfect man I’ve ever met. ... He’s the greatest man alive.”

Of his brother, George W. Bush, he said: “I’m a whole lot younger and a lot better looking.”

TRUMP’S A HIT ON FACEBOOK Donald Trump, the billionaire real estate magnate and TV personality, jumped in the race for the 2016 Republican presidential nomination on Tuesday.

Perhaps not surprisingly, Trump’s rambling announcement speech sparked more chatter on Facebook than any other 2016 candidate except Hillary Clinton. Granted, Facebook does not assess the sentiment behind the 6.4 million interactions relating to Trump’s campaign kickoff, so there’s no way to know how many were negative. But give The Donald credit: He knows how to dominate a conversation.

FORMER ROMNEY AIDE JOINS GROUP TARGETING CLINTON Mitt Romney’s finance chairman for his White House bids, Spencer Zwick, is taking his fundraising talents to America Rising.

Zwick will chair the political action committee targeting Hillary Clinton in the 2016 race.

In his opening fundraising appeal, Zwick said: “Our mission at America Rising is to hold Secretary Clinton accountable and challenge her so that whoever emerges as our Republican nominee will be well-positioned in the general election.”

Clinton pleads for gun control Jon Swartz USA TODAY

SAN FRANCISCO Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton made a stirring plea for “common-sense” gun control Saturday.

“The passing of days has not dulled the pain or shock of this crime,” Clinton said, in her most extensive comments yet on the tragedy Wednesday that left nine dead in Charleston, S.C. “As a mother, grandmother and fellow human being, my heart is bursting for the victims,” she said in a passionate 30-minute address to American mayors gathered here.

“It makes no sense that bipartisan legislation fails in Congress despite overwhelming public support,” Clinton said.

“The politics on this position have been poisoned. I will not be afraid to fight for commonsense reforms … because of this senseless gun violence.”

“How is it possible that we as a nation allow guns to fall into the hands of people whose hearts are filled with hate?” she said. “We can have commonsense gun reforms that keep them out of the hands of criminals and the mentally unstable while not penalizing responsible gun owners,” Clinton said.

The shooting spree at the predominately black church in Charleston, the latest in a string of disturbing incidents in America over the past few years, underscores an intolerant nation deeply in need of healing and understanding, she said.

“Race remains a deep fault line in America,” Clinton said, pointing to ongoing discrimination, disparity in pay, illegal housing and other social chasms.

Clinton spoke to civic leaders gathered for the U.S. Conference of Mayors here this weekend.

D

emonstrators who gathered at the South Carolina Statehouse on Saturday evening to protest the flying of a Confederate flag on Statehouse grounds received some unexpected support from two prominent Republicans, Jeb Bush and Mitt Romney.

For some South Carolina residents, the Confederate flag hanging outside the Statehouse represents their heritage. For others, it is a sobering reminder of the state’s dark history — marred by white supremacy and slavery.

The debate over the flag has flared anew following the killing of nine people at Charleston’s Emanuel AME Church on Wednesday night. Dylann Roof, 21, was charged with nine counts of murder in the attack.

Bush, the former governor of Florida and a contender for the 2016 Republican presidential nomination, said his position on the flag is clear.

“In Florida, we acted, moving the flag from the state grounds to a museum where it belonged,” Bush said on Twitter Saturday. “Following a period of mourning, there will rightly be a discussion among leaders in the state about how South Carolina should move forward and I’m confident they will do the right thing.”

His tweet came a few hours after Romney, the 2012 GOP presidential nominee, also weighed in bluntly on the politically sensitive issue.

“Take down the #ConfederateFlag at the SC Capitol. To many, it is a symbol of racial hatred. Remove it now to honor #Charleston victims,” the former governor of Massachusetts said on Twitter.

Although he did not specifically mention the march in Columbia, his comments clearly supported the group’s goal.

Organizers of Saturday’s march stressed on Facebook the demonstration would be nonviolent. “We are a peaceful and concerned community group wanting to express and discuss legislative changes to take down that symbol. We are not endorsing any violent expression or disrespectful action whatsoever,” the post said.

The crowd chanted “take it down” as speakers called the flag a symbol of hatred, not heritage, the Associated Press said.

The demonstration, which lasted a little more than an hour, ended with the crowd singing “We Shall Overcome.”

A petition by the liberal public advocacy group MoveOn.org calling for the flag’s removal had gathered more than 300,000 signatures by Saturday morning.

The petition, addressed to South Carolina state representatives and the governor, said: “Symbols of hate and division have no place in our government.”

The flag first flew above the Statehouse in 1961 in response to campaigns for desegregation following the Brown v. Board of Education decision in which the Supreme Court ruled segregation in public schools was illegal. In 2000, the flag was moved to the front of the Statehouse after a compromise among state politicians.

State Rep. Carl Anderson, chair of the Legislative Black Caucus, told USA TODAY that members of the caucus will bring several bills to the next legislative session to address gun control, hate crimes and the removal of the Confederate flag.

The State’s General Assembly would have to pass a bill in order for the flag to be removed.

purported manifesto studied Doug Stanglin and Katharine Lackey USA TODAY

A white supremacist manifesto purportedly written by accused killer Dylann Roof, 21, says he had “no choice” but to target African Americans, whom he derides as “stupid and violent.”

The document is being reviewed by investigators, a federal law enforcement official told USA TODAY on Saturday.

The official, who was not authorized to comment publicly, said it appeared to be consistent with Roof’s views.

A photo from “The Last Rhodesian” website appears to show Dylann Roof with a gun.

The manifesto appeared on lastrhodesian.com. The website’s authenticity could not be independently verified. The domain site was registered under the name Dylann Roof, The New York Times reported.

The 2,000-word diatribe rails against “negroes,” with the occasional use of the Nword. “I have no choice. I am not in the position to, alone, go into the ghetto and fight. I chose Charleston because it is (the) most historic city in my state, and at one time had the highest ratio of blacks to whites in the country.”

The writer says he “was not raised in a racist home or environment” but was “truly awakened” after researching the 2012 Trayvon Martin case.

SUPREME COURT

JOHN BOAL, EUROPEAN PRESSPHOTO AGENCY

GAY-MARRIAGE CRUSADER HOPES TO BE OUT OF A JOB Richard Wolf USA TODAY

The Supreme Court is likely to put Evan Wolfson out of work in the next two weeks, and he couldn’t be happier.

In many ways the godfather of the same-sex marriage movement, Wolfson has spent the past 32 years waging what seemed a quixotic battle to win for gays and lesbians the same matrimonial rights that opposite-sex couples have had for millennia.

When he debuted in 1983 with a 140-page Harvard Law School thesis, he didn’t have much support. A decade later, when Hawaii nearly legalized and then banned same-sex marriage, he took on the role of Paul Revere, insisting gay marriage was coming — it was only a matter of time.

“I spent the ’90s trying to get people to talk about ‘gay’ and ‘marriage’ in the same sentence,” says the 58-year-old New Yorker who grew up in Pittsburgh, where his parents celebrated their 60th wedding anniversary this month and his kid sister married her partner of 11 years last month.

Only in the past few years has Wolfson’s pet issue taken off.

Thirty-seven states and 19 countries have legalized same-sex marriage, and the generally conservative Supreme Court might be on the verge of making it 50 and 20.

How Wolfson and other leaders of the same-sex marriage movement — such as Mary Bonauto, the nation’s top gay-marriage lawyer — brought a seemingly impossible dream to the brink of nationwide reality is a story of perseverance through legal, legislative and political setbacks.

The turning point, Wolfson says, wasn’t a single episode but a growing acceptance by Americans of what it means to be gay or lesbian.

Rather than buying the stereotype that “our relationships are all about sex and not about love,” says the American Civil Liberties Union’s James Esseks, another movement leader, Americans are learning that gays and lesbians want the opposite — marriages that are “lifelong, monogamous and celebrated in public.”

If the justices strike down the nation’s remaining bans against same-sex marriage, it will render Freedom to Marry, the advocacy and lobbying organization Wolfson founded in 2003, superfluous.

That’s OK with Wolfson, because it would go a long way toward eliminating stereotypes about gay NEW YORK

Founder of Freedom to Marry has spent decades dedicated to the cause, and legal triumph looks like it’s within reach

losses,” Wolfson says. Connecticut joined Massachusetts in 2008. Iowa, Vermont, New Hampshire and the District of Columbia signed up in 2009.

Then in 2011 came New York, and support for gay marriage finally topped 50% in national polls.

Around that time, Wolfson began growing Freedom to Marry and an affiliated lobbying group, placing operatives on the ground in key states. By 2013, the two groups reported nearly $12 million in annual revenue.

Since then, helped by the Supreme Court’s twin decisions in 2013 upholding same-sex marriage in California and striking down a key part of the federal Defense of Marriage Act, the number of states has soared to 37.

“In historical terms, you could say that it’s gone fast. The crescendo has gone fast,” Wolfson says. “But we didn’t just begin this fight five years ago or 10 years ago.”

ADVANTAGES OF WEDLOCK

MATTHEW H. COLBY FOR USA TODAY

Cheng He, left, married Evan Wolfson. Wolfson says he still feels the glow of their wedding day. and lesbian relationships.

It wasn’t until 2011 that Wolfson finally experienced what he had sought for nearly three decades. Once New York legalized gay marriage, Wolfson married his longtime partner, Cheng He, in front of their families and friends. It proved to be a moving experience.

“I still feel the glow of that day,” Wolfson says, sitting beside He in their Greenwich Village apartment overlooking the site of the former World Trade Center.

“After years of preaching it, I actually experienced it, and wow — it turns out it was true. There is power in this.”

MARRIAGE AND MORALITY

It all began with a law school thesis titled “Samesex Marriage and Morality” that Wolfson says “has shaped my work ever since.” It was written amid the AIDS crisis of the 1980s, which “shattered the silence about gay people’s lives.”

It also was a shot in the dark.

Gays and lesbians were on the losing side of most court cases at the time — notably Bowers v.

Hardwick, a Georgia case in which the Supreme Court denied gays and lesbians the right to engage in consensual sodomy. Wolfson, then a lawyer for Lambda

Legal, wrote a friend-of-the-court brief for the losing side.

The initial victory for gay marriage came in Hawaii — first in 1993, when the state’s Supreme Court said Hawaii could not ban the practice, then in 1996, when three couples won a lower court trial. Wolfson helped as co-counsel in the case when other gay rights groups saw little hope.

Ultimately, Hawaiian voters passed a constitutional amendment in 1998 prohibiting samesex marriage, prompting the state Supreme Court to reverse itself the following year.

“The lesson in that is we won

in court, and we lost in the court of public opinion,” says Ninia Baehr, one of the original plaintiffs in the case.

Wolfson parlayed the Hawaii story “to help foster a national conversation, and that conversation has continued ever since,” says Bonauto, civil rights project director at Gay & Lesbian Advocates & Defenders. She won the case that made Massachusetts the first state in the nation to legalize same-sex marriage in 2004, and she argued the case pending at the Supreme Court.

“Evan took this issue and has run with it relentlessly,” says the ACLU’s Matt Coles, one of about a dozen gay rights leaders who worked with Wolfson in 2004-05 to map out a strategy for achieving marriage equality. “He pushed everyone, all of us, the litigation groups, the big organizations, to get on it.”

Even after Massachusetts, defeats kept piling up. In 2004 and 2006, 18 states passed constitutional amendments banning gay marriage. When California’s top court struck down a statutory ban in 2008, voters amended the state constitution instead. Voters in Maine did the same a year later.

Amid the setbacks came a few victories, and “wins trump

What Wolfson did begin more recently — 13 years ago — was a rea lationship with He, management consultant with a doctorate in molecular biology.

Until then, Baehr recalls, “he used to say, ‘Always the bridesmaid, never the bride.’ ” The couple wed in 2011 in a ceremony that combined Wolfson’s Jewish and He’s Chinese faiths and traditions. They moved their rings from their right to left hands. Afterward, He recalls, “I literally broke down in tears.”

For them as for all gay couples, marriage offers practical advantages. Without a green card despite student and work visas, He waited nervously in a different line whenever the pair returned from frequent vacations overseas.

Now they are treated as a married couple everywhere and can file taxes jointly — a privilege that has not led to financial gain.

Beyond that, marriage has meant far more than green cards and joint tax returns.

“There is that connection, there is that family, that unity,” He says. “That is not something you can easily express by saying, ‘This is my boyfriend.’ ” Within days of the high court’s imminent ruling, Wolfson plans to hold a party in Manhattan for up to 1,000 of the movement’s movers and shakers.

“We’re doing this win or lose,” Wolfson says. “We’re hoping it will be a celebration, but if not — a mobilization.”

If it’s a celebration, he says he will shut down Freedom to Marry and become happily unemployed.

SHARK TRIVIA How long do sharks live?

Some sharks, like the smooth dogfish, may live only 16 years, while porbeagle sharks live as long as 46 years.

Whale sharks, the world’s largest fish species, may live over 100 years. There is not data available for all shark species.

Blood in the water

A: True. Contrasts in skin color seem to engage sharks because they may be similar to color variations found on fish.

Q:

Sunburn and uneven tans entice sharks.

A: Close to shore. Most shark attacks occur less than 100 feet from shore in North America.

Q:

Where do most shark attacks occur?

A: In the past half-century there have been more unprovoked attacks in Florida between 2-3 p.m. than other times of the day.

Q:

What time of day are attacks most likely to occur?

A: Get aggressive. Don’t use your hands, but try to get in a position where you can defend the front and sides of your body. Strike at the shark in its most sensitive areas such as the eyes and gills.

Q:

What should you do if attacked by a shark?

Great white sharks have an acute sense of smell. They can smell a single drop of blood in 25 gallons of water and small amounts of blood up to 3 miles away.

Drone surveillance In Seal Beach, Calif., lifeguards are utilizing drone technology to monitor sharks that swim close to the beach.

A camera mounted on the drone alerts lifeguards to pending danger from the sharks.

Which shark is the fastest?

When it comes to speed in the water, the shortfin mako is the fastest species of shark, with recorded speeds of 25 mph and bursts of speed up to 46 mph.

Illegal shark fin trade Shark finning refers to the removal of shark fins while discarding the carcass at sea, most often still alive.

Specialists estimate that 100 million sharks are killed for their fins annually. One pound of dried shark fin can retail for $300 or more.

Ikea is getting intimate with its customers.

To send the company back on a growth track, Ikea has plans to make 1,000 house calls a year at customers’ homes, poking through their cabinets, observing how their kids play and determining the biggest headaches people encounter when running their households.

The goal: to learn what customers in different markets need and to make stores — largely filled with the same streamlined, modern furniture no matter where you are in the world — more local and personalized.

“It’s not so much about the product, it’s about understanding how life is spent,” Ikea U.S. President Lars Petersson told USA TODAY. “To create Ikea to become the leader in life at home.”

That means employees show up at customers’ homes for an up-close look at how they spend their time, asking questions like: what’s your favorite meal, how do you prepare it and where do you put your pots and pans?

While the home visits aren’t new — right now Ikea conducts 500 to 600 each year — the company is set on picking up their pace as more stores open in coming years. That’s because, as Ikea celebrated 30 years in the U.S. recently, its growth has started to falter.

Since opening the first U.S. store in Philadelphia on June 12, 1985, Ikea has grown to 40 stores and become the secondlargest furniture retailer in the country by market share behind Ashley Furniture, according to market research company IBISWorld.

But its U.S. expansion has been relatively slow, opening an average of less than one store a year — last year, it opened two stores; this year, it plans to open one in St. Louis in the fall and two more are planned for 2016.

The company doesn’t have a target for the number of stores it wants to open, but Petersson says that “plans are quite ambitious.”

Ikea revolutionized do-ityourself furniture. But the Swedish company, which built its name on getting scores of customers to buy the same inexpensive products like the “Lack”

Furniture company wants to get more personal with house calls “It’s not so much about the product, it’s about understanding how life is spent.”

coffee table and “Billy” bookshelf, doesn’t just want to peddle furniture. It wants to create solutions that make life easier, Petersson says.

To do that, the company will invest in more stores, enhanced online services and moving beyond its standard minimalist, mass-marketed furniture to localize products.

The company is trying to lift traffic and increase awareness of the brand as sales have cooled in recent years. U.S. same-store sales increased 4.2% in 2014, down from 6.7% the year before and 8% in 2012. Plus, Ikea has been slow to invest in e-commerce, where more and more shoppers are headed, even for big purchases like living room furniture. Ikea still doesn’t have all of its products available online — about 7,500 out of more than 9,000.

On the Web, brands like Wayfair, Williams-Sonoma and Overstock.com dominate with large selection and often free

shipping. Ikea’s shipping rates vary depending on how large the item is. Smaller, flash-sale home decor sites have changed the way people shop for furniture, says Marcie Merriman, retail brand strategist at EY Advisory.

To compete, the company wants to roll out such online services as “buy online, pickup in store.” Petersson says that’s a goal, but it will take time to implement.

One thing Ikea doesn’t plan to do is make stores smaller or closer to city centers. That doesn’t fit Ikea’s business model as its supply chain and low prices rely on warehouse-size stores to accommodate more than 9,000 items.

“We have 45% direct delivery from suppliers to stores,” Petersson says. “There’s no reloading point or middle man. If we had smaller stores, repackaging and redistribution of that would be a big cost, and we think it’s more important to deliver the lowest price to you.”

New truck emissions rules unloaded Eco-friendly approach a sticker-price shock?

“We’re delivering big time on President Obama’s call to cut carbon pollution,” said EPA Administrator Gina McCarthy. “With emission reductions weighing in at 1 billion tons, this proposal will save consumers, businesses and truck owners money; and ... spur technology innovation and job growth, while protecting Americans’ health and our environment over the long haul.”

Greg Gardner

Detroit Free Press

Federal regulators unveiled a proposal Friday that would require makers of medium and heavy-duty trucks to reduce carbon emissions by 1 billion metric tons and cut fuel costs by about $170 billion by next decade.

Some trucking industry officials worry the rules will dramatically add to the cost of new trucks.

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration are jointly proposing the emission reductions, which are nearly equal to the greenhouse gas emissions from all U.S. residences in one year. The proposed improvement in fuel efficiency would save more oil than what the U.S. imports annually from the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries.

LUKE SHARETT BLOOMBERG

The new rules will require manufacturers to use new technology that could add up to $14,000 to the cost of making a truck.

“Once upon a time, to be proenvironment you had to be antibig vehicles. This rule will change that,” said Transportation Secretary Anthony Foxx. “In fact, these efficiency standards are good for the environment — and the economy. When trucks use less fuel, shipping costs go down. It’s good news all around.”

The fuel economy and emission standards would cover more than 7 million tractor-trailers and other heavy-duty trucks that haul

most of the nation’s goods. These rules will require manufacturers to use new technology that could add up to $14,000 to the cost of making a truck, according to the Owner-Operator Independent Drivers Association.

But the Obama administration is intent on establishing policies that will accelerate the reduction in emissions of carbon dioxide, the most common greenhouse gas associated with contributing to climate change.

“Once upon a time, to be pro-environment you had to be anti-big vehicles. This rule will change that.”

Transportation Secretary Anthony Foxx

Medium- and heavy-duty vehicles account for about 20% of greenhouse gas emissions and oil use in the U.S. transportation sector, but represent only about 5% of vehicles on the road. Globally, oil consumption and greenhouse emissions from heavy-duty vehicles are forecast to surpass that of passenger vehicles by 2030.

RETIREMENT Invest first in knowledge of options Q

I took Social Security early, at age 62, but I have continued working part time. I will be 70 in June. Will I get a raise according to how much I have earned in the last eight years?

Elsie Blankenship, Kingston, Ill. The answer, for better or worse, is maybe.

Your benefit is calculated based on the highA est 35 years of earnings indexed for inflation, says

Q

I am on the verge of retiring from my full-time job. I have a 401(k) with the company and was wondering what I should do with the account when I retire.

I don’t want to “cash” out because of the high tax I may end up paying. Can this 401 (k) be rolled over to some type of retirement account?

You’ve got a couple of choices that are more taxA friendly than taking the money.

One option: You can roll the entire 401(k) into an IRA, says Betty Meredith, the director of education and research for the International Foundation for Retirement Education in Ann Arbor, Mich.

If you go this route, make sure the money goes directly

from the 401(k) plan to wherever you set up the IRA. This is called a trustee-to-trustee transfer. “It’s best to not take possession of the funds,” says Meredith.

The second and perhaps better option is to leave your 401(k) with your former employer. “A lot of people think they have to move the funds from the employer plan because they no longer work there,” Meredith says. “Many employer plans now allow retired employees to keep the funds with the employer, as more money in the plan helps keep overall costs down.”

There are benefits to keeping the funds with your employer.

One, your former employer has

a fiduciary responsibility to do due diligence and monitor the funds in the 401(k) plan, so you don’t have to. Two, employersponsored plans typically have institutional pricing/lower overall fees. And three, in general, you have better protection from creditors with a 401(k) than an IRA. So, unless you’re unhappy with the funds offered in your 401(k) plan, Meredith recommends leaving your 401(k) with your former employer until you get your “retirement” legs.

“You’re actually being prudent by not forcing a decision if you have the option to leave the funds with the employer,” says Meredith.

Mark Lumia, the founder and CEO of True Wealth Group in Lady Lake, Fla., and the author of Thinking Outside the Money Box: The Best Concepts for a Worry-Free Retirement Are Off the Beaten Path.

So, if any of the eight years that you worked part time are higher than any of the other 35 years indexed for inflation, any of the years that are higher will replace the lowest years, Lumia says.

The good news is that you don’t have to worry about crunching the numbers. That’s because the Social Security Administration (SSA) reviews each year the records for all working Social Security recipients to see if additional earnings may increase their monthly benefit amounts. And, if an increase is due, the SSA figures a new benefit amount and pays the increase retroactive to January following the year of earnings.

If you want to get a sense of whether you might get an increase, create a “my Social Security” account at www.ssa.gov/myaccount/. At that site, you can keep track of your earnings and verify them every year; get an estimate of your future benefits if you are still working; get a letter with proof of your benefits if you currently receive them; and manage your benefits.

Q

I turned 62 recently and applied for Social Security a couple of months prior. When can I expect my first payment?

Cheryl Mossing, Maricopa, Ariz.

You must be 62 for an entire month. That’s beA cause Social Security benefits are paid the month after they’re due.

You should receive your first payment on the third Wednesday of the month after your birthday.

There’s info about Social Security benefits being paid a month after they’re due at this website: socialsecurity.gov/planners/retire/applying1.html.

Tips to make the most of your 401(k) Talk to most full-time employees saving for retirement, and you’ll find that an employer-sponsored 401(k) is the way most are planning for their golden years. But while 401(k)s are common, they have some specific rules that can be Jeff Reeves confusing. And let’s face it — anything that has to do with long-term Special for USA TODAY financial planning can be intimidating. Thankfully, the basic premise of these accounts is easy to understand: Take pretax dollars out of your paycheck, invest them over many years and ultimately wind up with a decent nest egg come retirement. Of course, the size of that nest egg can vary greatly based on a host of factors. So how can you make the most of your employer-sponsored retirement plan? Here are some 401(k) investing dos and don’ts: DO START SAVING EARLY, EVEN IF YOU DON’T MAKE MUCH:

Compound interest is one of the most powerful forces in the universe, so saving a little cash and giving it a lot of time to grow is often more effective than saving a lot of cash over a short period. Consider two ways to get to $1 million in savings by 65: Sock away $4,700 a year starting at age 25 and invest with a 7% rate of return … or save and invest about $23,700 a year starting at age 45. While it’s hard to save even a few grand at 25, it’ll be just as painful to save a huge portion of your earnings later. At least in the former scenario, it eventually gets easier.

DO TAKE FULL ADVANTAGE OF YOUR MATCH: An extra

DO THIS

incentive to save: employer matches, which essentially amount to free money. Your company puts a little bit extra in your 401(k), simply as a reward for saving — something you should be doing anyway. Don’t leave this on the table.

DO CONTRIBUTE FROM BONUSES: Windfalls are nice if

you have your eye on a special set of shoes or a beach vacation. But while there’s nothing wrong with enjoying the fruits of your labors in a bonus, take the occasion to feed your long-term savings goals.

DO INCREASE CONTRIBUTIONS WITH RAISES: Countless studies

show that making savings automatic means consumers notice

the “lost” money less, so make arrangements with payroll to adjust up your 401(k) contributions each year with your increased salary. You’ll never miss the money, but you’ll be quite thankful come retirement.

DO CLOSELY CHECK VESTING OF YOUR MATCH: Though a

match is nice on paper, it’s worth noting that some companies put strings attached to these funds via “vesting” schedules. The money you contribute will always be yours, but some employers reserve the right to claw back matching funds if you quit in short order. Terms can be ugly — such as requiring an employee to work at least three years or else forfeit every penny of the match.

Now, don’t panic … many companies offer more generous vesting schedules, perhaps with only a year required on the job. Be informed, and use those terms to guide decisions on contributions — or when to take that new job.

It’s tempting to think that a 401(k) is retirement savings and that preserving your capital is priority No. 1. The sad reality of American retirement planning is that Americans don’t save nearly as much as they should and are woefully unprepared for expenses when they stop working.

So keep that 401(k) in growth mode, and don’t be afraid of U.S. and international stocks. These investments may carry higher risk in the short term, but over many years, they are a much more effective wealth-creation tool. Even if you’re in your 40s or 50s, consider growth an important part of your portfolio. You could easily live to 80, 90 or even 100 … and you’ll need to plan for that, or else risk running out of money.

DON’T TREAT YOUR 401(K) LIKE A CHECKING ACCOUNT: You can indeed

borrow against a 401(k), and sometimes when you’re shopping for a loan such as a mortgage, you will be told that your retirement funds are an asset. But it can be very costly to tap your 401(k).

Not only will you pay penalties for withdrawals before age 59½, including loans that are not repaid, but you also will be out the muchneeded cash come time for retirement. Obviously, there are cases when an emergency makes such a situation unpreventable.

But every other option should be exhausted before you dip into your retirement funds.

NOT THAT

DO DIVERSIFY AND THINK LONG-TERM: A great finding

from retirement giant Fidelity was that its best-performing accounts were from those who didn’t even know they had an account! That just goes to show the power of sticking with it and not being swayed by day-to-day fluctuations. It’s important to diversify across asset classes, including both stocks and bonds as well as thinking both internationally and domestically. But perhaps most important of all is keeping perspective, and remembering that you have decades to save. Time is on your side.

DON’T BE AFRAID OF GROWTH:

DON’T FORGET CATCH-UP CONTRIBUTIONS: If you’re behind on

Reeves is the editor of Investor Place.com and the author of The Frugal Investor’s Guide to Finding Great Stocks

saving and getting close to retirement, remember that the IRS allows workers age 50 or older to make an additional $6,000 in contributions for tax year 2015 above the $18,000 limit — so $24,000 in total. This isn’t just a powerful catch-up tool — it may be helpful for higher-earning empty-nesters looking to reduce their taxable income on the year via extra 401(k) savings.

DON’T IGNORE YOUR (EVENTU-

AL) TAXES: As a tax-deferred

account, you actually don’t have all the money you think you do in a 401(k). That’s because when you withdraw funds, you will see that money taxed as ordinary income. In other words, if you are lucky enough to have a $1 million 401(k) account and take all that cash out at once? Well, it will be like you earned $1 million in wages that year — and you will pay the top tax amount as a result. Keep this in mind, and adjust your expectations of both what your total spendable amount is as well as your schedule for withdrawals in retirement.

DON’T FORGET RMDS: As a

tax-deferred account, the government is happy to let you grow your money for a time … but it wants you to eventually take out that cash, so the IRS can get its share. Once you reach age 70½, if you’re no longer working, then the tax man will prescribe “required minimum distributions” to ensure that happens. It involves a bunch of math based on your age, account balances and marriage status, so consult with a tax professional or review RMD worksheets on IRS.gov for guidance. If you don’t take out the amount you should, expect the government to impose penalties anyway and get their fair share regardless.

DON’T BE AFRAID TO ASK FOR HELP: You’ve worked hard, paid

off a mortgage and sent the kids to college. You have a bunch of money saved in a 401(k) and are about to enjoy your golden years.

What kind of retirement do you want, and what kind of legacy do you want to leave your heirs?

Most important, when and how do you start moving around your money to get there? These are important questions every family needs to ask, so there is nothing wrong with including an accredited financial professional in this process. Navigating the various tax laws and figuring out a longterm plan to enjoy your wealth is not a one-size-fits-all affair, and sometimes it’s cheaper to pay a smart person to guide you instead of making an expensive mistake late in life.

KANSAS BASKETBALL

All in the family

FGCU loaner familiar with KU

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Kansas University’s World University Games basketball team roster now consists of 10 Jayhawks, one SMU Mustang and a Florida Gulf Coast Eagle.

Julian DeBose, a 6-foot4 senior combo guard who averaged 11.6 points and grabbed 3.9 rebounds a game last season while playing for former KU assistant Joe Dooley’s FGCU squad (22-11), was added to KU’s Team USA roster Saturday as a replacement for the injured Devonté Graham.

DeBose, who arrived in Lawrence on Saturday and will begin workouts today, will play in Tuesday’s and Friday’s KU-Canada exhibitions in Sprint Center and also in the actual Games, July 3-14 in Gwangju, South Korea.

“He’s a 6-foot-4, 200-pound guard who has been playing for Joe, so he understands in theory what we are trying to do both offensively and defensively,” KU coach Bill Self told the Journal-World. “Joe wanted us to take him all along. We decided to take our guys plus Nic (Moore, SMU).

Then when Devonté got hurt (quad injury Wednesday), we obviously needed to add somebody.

“Joe (Dooley) said he will remind us a lot of (former KU guard) Travis Releford,” Self added. “He’s got good size. He’s a jack of all trades and a great energy guy.”

A transfer from Rice who is originally from Washington, D.C., DeBose hit 43.2 percent of his shots last David Kohl/AP File Photo season, including 31.7 percent from three (33 of 104).

DeBose has joined the Kansas University/ Please see HOOPS, page 3C Team USA roster as a replacement for the injured Devonté Graham.

It’s not exactly boot camp, but Kansas University’s football team has been put to the test during the past couple of days with the arrival of the training regimen known as The Program.

The training challenge, a two-day event that several other KU athletic teams have taken on in the past, tests mental toughness, physical strength and perseverance in a similar but much less intense way than several military specialforces units are put through.

Included in KU’s week of training were a surprise 4 a.m. wake-up call for an exercise in the swimming pool, tests that involve carrying bodies and objects in adverse conditions and mental challenges that might have proven to be the most draining.

The idea behind The Program was not to exhaust the athletes mentally and physically — though that happened — but to foster a new sense of team and togetherness that the KU coaching staff hopes will benefit the Jayhawks on the field this fall.

Players and coaches alike tweeted their thoughts about the training throughout the week, including head coach David Beaty, who wrote, “Trust is the foundation of building relationships. Tremendous experience having #TheProgram work with our guys.”

KU lands ’16 commitment Three-star, Class of 2016 athlete Marquis Smith orally committed to KU on Saturday, according to JayhawkSlant.com.

Smith, 5-foot-10, 170 pounds, played quarterback at Ypsilanti (Michigan) High, but could be headed toward the secondary at Kansas. Known for his toughness, Smith also could factor in as a kick returner.

KU running-backs coach Reggie Mitchell — a Michigan native — and Beaty teamed up to land Smith, who becomes the sixth player in the 2016 class to commit to the Jayhawks.

Day reeling, but tied for Open lead Ted S. Warren/AP Photo

JASON DAY WATCHES HIS TEE SHOT on the 17th hole during the third round of the U.S. Open on Saturday in University Place, Washington.

University Place, Wash. (ap) — The toughest test in golf met one tough player Saturday at the U.S. Open.

Jason Day had every reason to withdraw when he collapsed on the final hole of his second round with a nasty bout of vertigo. He gave it his best shot under the stiffest conditions yet at

Chambers Bay. The vertigo returned on the back nine, along with nausea. When he turned his head toward the target, he had to wait for his eyes to stop dancing before he could swing. He thought about quitting three times.

And it was worth it.

With three birdies on the last four holes, Day stag-

gered off the course with a 2-under 68 and his name atop the leaderboard. He was part of a four-way tie with Masters champion Jordan Spieth, Dustin Johnson and Branden Grace of South Africa.

One day after his collapse, Day was standing taller than ever.

“That was the greatest round I’ve ever watched,” said Colin Swatton, his caddie and longtime coach who whispered words of encouragement along the hilly terrain of Chambers Bay. “I said, ‘You’ve got the heart of a lion. You get to show the Please see OPEN, page 5C

Morales’ birthday homer sparks Royals, 7-4 “ Kansas City, Mo. (ap) — It was another successful birthday for Kendrys Morales.

The slugger hit his third career homer on his birthday, and the Kansas City Royals rallied to beat the Boston Red Sox 7-4 on Saturday night.

Morales connected for a

tiebreaking two-run shot in Kansas City’s five-run fifth against Rick Porcello (4-8).

It was the eighth homer of the season for the designated hitter, who turned 32 on Saturday.

“We’re bringing him a cake and candles tomorrow, make like it didn’t happen, and let him do it again,” said

Mike Moustakas, who had two hits and two RBIs for Kansas City.

Morales powered a 1-0 sinker over the wall in right, driving in Lorenzo Cain.

“Jeremy Guthrie began to yell in the dugout, ‘Birthday home run, birthday home run,’” Royals manager Ned Yost said. “For him to do it

three times on his birthday is special.”

The Red Sox lost third baseman Pablo Sandoval (sprained left ankle) and catcher Blake Swihart (sprained left foot) to injuries. Sandoval was in a walking boot after the game.

“Both are day to day,” manager John Farrell said.

“We’ll check them when they come in in the morning. It’s undetermined right now if we’re going to need to make a (roster) move.

They both had X-rays here at the ballpark. Blake’s is at the base of the fifth toe.

There were no fractures Please see ROYALS, page 3C

KANSAS CITY PITCHER YOHAN PINO THROWS in the first inning of a game against the Boston Red Sox at Kauffman Stadium on Friday in Kansas City, Missouri. On Saturday, Pino was sent down to Triple-A Omaha.

Royals send Pino to Omaha; Brooks called up Kansas City, Mo. — Aaron Brooks is joining the Kansas City Royals pitching staff, and Yohan Pino is going back to the minors.

Pino was optioned to Triple-A Omaha after going 51⁄3 innings Friday in a loss to Boston in his first big-league start this season. He gave up six runs on 11 hits, four for extra bases, and a walk.

Brooks, a 25-year-old right-hander, is in his third stint with the Royals. He pitched a scoreless inning of relief May 15 against the New York Yankees in his only outing. He went 4-3 with a 3.42 ERA with 71 strikeouts in 71 innings with Omaha.

Brooks will be used in relief. Left-hander Danny Duffy will come off the disabled list and is to start Wednesday at Seattle.

BASEBALL

Mariners hire Edgar Martinez Seattle — The Seattle Mariners have hired Edgar Martinez as their hitting coach and reassigned Howard Johnson to the minorleague system.

Seattle made the announcement on Saturday before the second game of a weekend series against first-place Houston.

Martinez spent his entire 18-year major-league career with the Mariners and is regarded as one of the best right-handed hitters of his generation.

Popular with his teammates and fans, he joins a team that has the worst batting average in the majors at .233 and ranks 28th in runs scored.

The 52-year-old Martinez played 2,055 career games with Seattle and hit .312 with a .418 on-base percentage for his career, and won two AL batting titles. He has spent the past several seasons working as a guest hitting instructor during spring training.

Seattle general manager Jack Zduriencik says, “We had reached the point that a change was necessary.”

Randolph, Stottlemyre honors New York — Willie Randolph was overjoyed. Mel Stottlemyre was simply stunned.

The former New York Yankees stars were honored Saturday with plaques in Monument Park — one expected and the other a well-kept secret.

The 69th annual Old-Timers’ Day at Yankee Stadium featured appearances by the regular roster of fan favorites, including Hall of Famers Whitey Ford, Rickey Henderson, Reggie Jackson, Wade Boggs, Goose Gossage and Joe Torre.

Yogi Berra, who turned 90 last month, was unable to make it this time.

Leading off the festivities was Randolph, presented with his plaque near home plate in a ceremony the team announced months ago.

Then, after all the ex-Yankees were introduced to cheers, Stottlemyre’s family was called onto the field, and the former pitcher and longtime coach — battling bone marrow cancer for 15 years now — was surprised with a plaque of his own.

NBA

Towns works out for T’wolves Minneapolis — Kentucky big man KarlAnthony Towns worked out for the Minnesota Timberwolves on Saturday, less than a week before the Wolves pick first in the NBA Draft.

Towns arrived in the Twin Cities on Friday night. He took a tour of the Wolves’ new $25 million practice facility and dined with owner Glen Taylor, President Flip Saunders and several other team officials.

Towns is considered the heavy favorite to be chosen No. 1 overall on Thursday night, and the Wolves are the only team he has worked out for during the pre-draft process.

The visit wrapped up a busy week for the Wolves, who also hosted Duke center Jahlil Okafor, Ohio State guard D’Angelo Russell and point guard Emmanuel Mudiay, who played in China last season, as they mull their options.

HIGH SCHOOLS HUB:

TAMPA BAY RAYS

AL CENTRAL

By Mike Gavin

In his Twitter photo, Zack Hample is sitting in a bathtub filled with major-league baseballs. He has his own website.

He has a Wikipedia page. He has written a book titled “How to Snag Major League Baseballs.”

And now he has the ball from Alex Rodriguez’s 3,000th hit.

“My intention all along imagining this scenario, one in a million, was not to give it back just because the guy who got Jeter’s 3,000th hit, a lot of people called him an idiot,” Hample said as he received a police escort to the Yankees’ executive offices. “A lot of people said that he was a wonderful person and extremely generous. I really think that whatever you want to do with it is your choice.

“I think that someone like Derek Jeter and Alex Rodriguez who’s made half a billion dollars in their career doesn’t really need a favor from a normal civilian and a fan like me.”

Asked if he had a price in mind that he would accept in exchange for the ball, Hample said whatever amount Rodriguez offered likely wouldn’t be enough to make it worthwhile.

“He’s not going to offer me a million dollars,” Hample said.

“If he did, I would consider it.

It’s kind of like, well, I don’t like you and I have something you want and you can’t have it.

I wanted you to not take steroids and be the greatest of all time and you disappointed me.

So I still respect A-Rod, he’s an amazing player and I think he is pretty fan-friendly, but I have to hang on to this ball right now.

“If I want to sell it, he’s welcome to come bid on it at auction,” he added. “And if I choose to keep it, well, he has the bat that he used, he has the helmet he was wearing, he has the jockstrap that he was wearing.”

Comparing Hample to Christian Lopez, who caught the homer that gave Jeter his 3,000th hit in 2011 and gave it back after the game, A-Rod said, “The thing I was thinking about is, where’s Jeet’s guy? The guy that caught the ball. That’s the guy that I needed here. Where’s that guy? I wasn’t so lucky.”

Hample, 37, a Yankees season-ticket holder from New York City, said he has caught more than 8,000 major-league baseballs, including batting practice. He said some of his more prized catches were Barry Bonds’ 724th career homer, the Mets’ final homer at Shea Stadium and Mike Trout’s first career homer.

Hample said he gave that ball to Trout and asked for nothing in return, wanting nothing more than to be the guy who handed it to him personally.

He added, “With A-Rod, I don’t think he deserves charity or sympathy.”

Hample, who was seated in section 103, said the ball was hit right to him. Just as he was about to jump to catch it, he was shoved from behind. He assumed he had lost his chance until he noticed it at his feet.

Hample, who said he is a baseball writer and also works in his family’s bookstore, said he has never sold a single ball that he has caught and often gives them to kids or donates them to raise money for a children’s baseball charity.

“I’ve always said if I get a ball that would be life-changing money, I would have to keep it and think about it,” he said.

The Yankees met with Hample, who said they offered him memorabilia, the chance to meet A-Rod and publicity on YES Network and other TV stations. He turned them down.

NEW YORK YANKEES

Knicks might trade No. 4 pick New York — The Knicks should start reaping the “rewards” this week for having the worst record in franchise history, but they have to hope they get luckier in Thursday’s NBA draft than they did in the lottery for the top positions.

As the only team to slip in the lottery, the Knicks, who finished with the league’s second-worst record, will pick fourth in a topheavy draft. But unless one of the projected top three players — Karl-Anthony Towns, Jahlil Okafor or D’Angelo Russell — falls, it wouldn’t be surprising if the Knicks traded the pick.

“If you’re the Knicks, you’re probably looking to deal the pick,” a league source said. “If I’m them, I’m actively looking to see what we can get for the pick. Actively.”

All indications are that the Knicks are doing just that.

They’ve worked out roughly 30 players, including Russell, Emmanuel Mudiay, Latvian big man Kristaps Porzingas, Willie CauleyStein, Justise Winslow, Frank Kaminsky, Trey Lyles, Kevon Looney and Cameron Payne.

TENNIS

Murray match halted by rain London — Top-seeded Andy Murray’s bid to reach the final at Queen’s Club ended in frustration on Saturday when his semifinal against Serbia’s Viktor Troicki was suspended in the first set due to rain.

Troicki fought off five break points at 3-3, and Murray earned a sixth when his opponent fell and injured his left shoulder on the grass court as he netted the ball. The 25th-ranked Troicki received treatment but rain prevented further points being played.

The match will resume this morning.

Third-ranked Murray is attempting to reach his 50th ATP Tour level final and the fifth of the season, as he chases his third title of the year after victories in Munich and Madrid. Murray is also bidding for a record-equaling fourth Queen’s Club title, matching the number won

by John McEnroe, Boris Becker, Andy Roddick and Lleyton Hewitt.

Virginia, Vandy in CWS finals Omaha, Neb. — Kenny Towns drove in three runs, including the winner in the seventh, and Josh Sborz pitched four innings of shutout relief as Virginia defeated Florida 5-4 on Saturday night to set up a College World Series finals rematch against Vanderbilt.

Virginia (42-23), which lost 10-5 to Florida on Friday, took two of three CWS games against the Gators (52-18) and now has won eight of its nine NCAA Tournament games. The Cavaliers open the best-of-three finals against a Vanderbilt team that beat them in three games for the championship last year.

It will be the first CWS finals rematch since Oregon State beat North Carolina in 2006-07.

Danny Lewis (6-2) took the loss.

NFL

Panthers donate to Charleston Charlotte, N.C. — Jerry Richardson, the owner of the NFL’s Carolina Panthers, has donated $100,000 to the families of the Charleston shooting to help cover burial costs of the victims.

Richardson sent a letter to the Mother Emanuel Hope Fund dated Friday along with a check for $100,000.

Richardson asks in the letter that $10,000 go to each of the nine families of the victims and $10,000 for a memorial at the Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church honoring the memory of those killed in the shooting on Wednesday.

Architects shape ballpark experience Kansas City, Mo. (ap) — They sit across a wide table from each other in a glass-walled conference room, the two men with graying hair trading barbs just as breezily as they trade praise.

“We’re sort of an ‘Odd Couple’ kind of thing,” Joe Spear muses during a break in the banter, scratching at his goatee.

“But we do think surprisingly alike.”

“Scary thought,” replies Earl Santee, leaning back in his chair.

Over nearly three decades, the two men have built Kansas City-based Populous from an offshoot of design firm HOK into the pre-eminent sports architecture company in the country. They’ve designed everything from Olympic buildings to minor league ballparks, in the process doing as much to shape the fan experience as any athlete or owner.

Now the best friends are working together on what

could be their most ambitious undertaking yet: SunTrust Park in Atlanta, the centerpiece of a mixed-use development that will include upscale residences, hotels and retail space.

In many ways, it could be the future of ballpark development.

Sure, other stadiums have served as the impetus for urban renewal.

Some have even had hotels and other amenities built alongside them. But the project for the Braves is the first time that a major sports venue and surrounding community have been designed in concert.

“We examined others — other companies, other architects. But we just had a comfort level with Joe and Earl,” said Braves president John Schuerholz, who first worked with the men when he was with the Kansas City Royals in the 1970s. “They spoke the same language, they understood what we were asking for and they

understood the challenges they would face.”

No challenge could be too daunting for this odd couple.

Their forte is stadiums for Major League Baseball, a sport that lends itself to creativity more than perhaps any other.

With the exception of the base paths (90 feet apart) and pitcher’s mound (60 feet, 6 inches from home), the only limiting factor is the imagination.

Want to add an outfield berm? Go ahead. Build a wall that zigs when it ought to zag? Sure. Position the entire stadium on the edge of the ocean? Go for it.

Spear and Santee have combined to design 13 of the last 14 parks to open, including PNC Park in Pittsburgh and AT&T Park in San Francisco, widely considered two of the game’s best. They have had their hand in the design or major renovations of 20 current ballparks.

FLORIDA GULF COAST GUARD JULIAN DEBOSE DRIVES against Xavier during a game Dec. 28, 2014, in Cincinnati. Xavier won, 71-57.

Hoops CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1C

He had 41 assists against 41 turnovers. He scored in double figures in 20 of 30 games played.

“It’s a terrific opportunity for Julian to not only represent the USA but also to play against some of the best competition at this level in the world,” Dooley said. “For him to be selected is a testament to all the hard work he’s put in, and we’re looking forward to watching him in action.”

In his second and final season at Rice, DeBose started all 30 games and averaged 10.4 points and 4.3 rebounds.

“I want to thank coach Dooley and coach Self for this opportunity,” DeBose said. “I’m extremely thankful, excited and honored to represent my country.”

Self said he is not familiar with DeBose’s game.

“I knew of him a little bit in high school,” Self said. “I watched him play AAU ball. I knew he scored quite a few points with Rice. I never really studied him.”

He said DeBose will play a big role on the team.

“We’re all going to play about the same (minutes), so, yes, he’ll play a lot,” Self said.

Self said he hopes he won’t have to add any more players to the 12-player roster.

“That will be it for our team, unless of course there’s another injury or something. We hope there’s not,” Self said.

Of the two extra slots on the team that have been filled, Self said: “If we could have taken Elijah (Johnson), or Trav (Releford) or Tyshawn (Taylor) ... they’re too old,” Self said of tourney age restrictions. “Xavier (Henry, currently not signed with NBA team) wanted to go but can’t because of his injury. That would have been great.

“We’re good. We’re gonna take these young cats. I actually like our team. It would have been great if we had BG (injured Brannen Greene), Svi and Cheick (foreign born Mykhailiuk and Diallo) able to go, too, but I do like our team.”

About DeBose: Former FGCU point guard Brett Comer said this about DeBose to the Naples (Florida) Daily News: “Very good athlete. Finishes around the rim really well. Can shoot the ball. He’s a really big-time scorer.”

Former FGCU guard Bernard Thompson nicknamed DeBose “Half a Bucket,” the Daily News reported. “When he gets the ball, he gets a bucket or someone else gets a bucket,” Thompson said. “He’s very athletic for his size.”

Dooley told the paper: “Obviously in transition he’s very good. He stretches the floor. We need to keep him on the floor at the end of the game.”

DeBose chose FGCU as a transfer destination over George Washington (Dooley’s alma mater), Siena and Towson State. l

Red Sox designated hitter David Ortiz was ejected in the seventh inning by plate umpire Bruce Dreckman.

“All I have to say is this situation between players and umpires is getting to the ridiculous point,” Ortiz said. “It seems to me that it’s more of a feeling than reality. I’m an 18-year veteran in this league. When I was coming up, it seems like you would get respect for that. It doesn’t work that way anymore. In my house, I was (taught) that if you don’t respect me I don’t have to respect you.

That’s how I am.”

The Red Sox scored two runs in the fifth to take a 4-1 lead, but Porcello fell apart in the bottom half with a hit batter, a balk, a walk and four hits.

Porcello was charged with six runs and eight hits in five innings. The

Sandoval committed a throwing error in the inning when he hurt his ankle. Swihart was hit for in the sixth after injuring his left foot on a slide into third base the previous inning.

Salvador Perez hit his fifth home run in 12 games for the Royals.

Boston’s Mookie Betts led off the game with a home run, extending his hitting streak to eight games.

Right-hander Edinson Volquez (7-4) allowed four runs, eight hits and two walks in 51⁄3 innings, but won his third straight start.

“I made mistakes when I was ahead in the count,” Volquez said.

Greg Holland worked the ninth for his 13th save in 14 opportunities.

MAJOR LEAGUE ROUNDUP

Scherzer settles for no-no National League Nationals 5, Pirates 3 Washington — Max Scherzer lost his bid for a perfect game in startling fashion, plunking a batter with two outs in the ninth inning before finishing off a no-hitter Saturday in Washington’s win over Pittsburgh.

Scherzer came within one strike of throwing the 22nd perfect game in major-league history since 1900. Pinch-hitter Jose Tabata fouled off three 2-2 deliveries, then seemed to slightly drop his elbow to get clipped

by Scherzer’s slider.

Scherzer immediately grimaced as the ball ricocheted to the ground. The crowd at Nationals Park seemed stunned, too, and surely many wondered whether Tabata had leaned into the pitch to get hit.

NOTEBOOK

McIlroy can’t make any progress University Place, Wash. (ap) — Rory McIlroy went out in 33 on Saturday and was 2 over for the tournament after his first nine holes, poised for a possible charge up the leaderboard at the U.S. Open.

His inability to make putts on the back nine at Chambers Bay left McIlroy back where he started.

“Whenever you start to miss a couple you start to get a little tentative,” McIlroy said after his even-par round of 70.

“You start to doubt yourself. You start to doubt the greens a little bit. And then it just sort of — it snowballs from there. I holed a few nice ones early on, but once I missed a couple it got into my head and couldn’t really get out of it.”

McIlroy’s third round was filled with crisp, clean ball-striking, following by frustration on the greens. He missed a number of putts inside 10 feet on the back nine and fell behind the field playing Nos. 11 and 12.

McIlroy made a bogey on the par-4 11th, and then could not take advantage of the drivable par-4 12th, putting his tee shot in the rough and missing his birdie attempt.

McIlroy joined the chorus of players noting the putting surfaces are not perfect, but it’s something everyone has to deal with.

“I don’t think they’re as green as broccoli. I think they’re more like cauliflower,” McIlroy joked. “They are what they are, everyone has to putt on them. It’s all men-

tal. Some guys embrace it more than others, and that’s really the way it is.

It is disappointing that they’re not in a bit better shape.”

Quite the rebound Louis Oosthuizen played his first 18 holes at Chambers Bay in 7 over.

He has played the last 36 in 8 under.

Oosthuizen posted his second straight round of 66 on Saturday, the lowest score of the third round by two shots. He is one of eight players under par going to the final day.

Oosthuizen played his first two rounds with Tiger Woods and Rickie Fowler. The trio was a combined 28-over par on Thursday.

But while Fowler and Woods continued to tum-

ble, Oosthuizen turned his game around.

“Being 9 over through 20 holes, it looked like I would have been back in Florida today,” Oosthuizen said. “But, just I made a few putts yesterday and started hitting the ball really well. And a few little things this morning on the range, found a bit of a swing with my driver and seemed to sort of go from there on the rest of my game. And today I hit it really close on a lot of holes, could have been probably a lot lower.”

Oosthuizen shot 32 on the front nine for the second straight day on Saturday and added a pair of birdies on the back nine.

Over his last 27 holes, Oosthuizen has seven birdies, one eagle and only one bogey.

“If I hit it the way I

did today I think I’ve got a pretty good chance of putting a good number out there again,” Oosthuizen said.

Gate keeper Nick Hardy arrived at Chambers Bay on Saturday morning after little sleep and instantly started to hear thanks from the 15 players he helped make the cut late Friday night.

“They came up to me this morning, kind of laughed about it, but that’s golf. I just happened to be the last ones on the course,” Hardy said. “We joked about it this morning with some of the guys, it was funny.”

Hardy was about 12 inches away from sending the likes of Sergio Garcia, Webb Simpson and Colin Montgomerie home before the week-

end arrived at the U.S. Open. Hardy was the last player on the golf course on Friday night when the cut hovered at 4 over par.

If he parred his final hole — the ninth — the cut would stay at 4 over. A bogey and the cut would move to 5 over.

Hardy hit a poor tee shot, splashed out of the bunker and had a 25-footer for par. Hardy said the putt was headed for the heart of the cup, but came up about a foot short.

Hardy said he was aware of the cut situation as he was playing Nos. 8 and 9 on Friday.

“Coming down on 8 and 9, I kind of knew that 5 over was actually going to make it,” said Hardy, who shot 77 on Saturday.

“Made a really bad swing at 9 and happened to make bogey.”

world today you get to be the greatest you can be and look, let’s do it.’ And he just put his head down and kept walking, one foot in front of the other.

It was pretty impressive.”

And now he gets to play in the final group of a major for the first time.

All it took was a performance that brought to mind Ken Venturi winning the U.S. Open at Congressional in 1964 with a 36-hole final while suffering from heat exhaustion and severe dehydration, and Tiger Woods winning the U.S. Open at Torrey Pines in 2008 with a shattered left leg.

Day still has one day to go and a course that is getting faster and scarier by the day. And he has plenty of company.

Spieth had four threeputts, missed birdie chances inside 12 feet on the last three holes and still wound up in a tie for the lead with a 71 as he tries to become only the fourth player since 1960 to win the first two legs of the Grand Slam. The others were Woods (2002), Jack Nicklaus (1972) and Arnold Palmer (1960).

“I didn’t have my best stuff today but still tied for the lead, and I’ve had my best stuff at times this week, and I’m pretty sure I know where it is and how to get it tomorrow and get ready to go,” Spieth said.

Johnson gets a fourth shot at his first major. He also wasted good birdie

He hit 3-iron into a bunker and made par for a 70.

Johnson also was in position to win the 2010 U.S. Open at Pebble Beach, the 2010 PGA Championship at Whistling Straits and the 2011 British Open.

“I’ve been in the situation a few times, so I know how to handle myself,” he said. “I know what it takes to get it

done. And tomorrow I just need to go out there and focus one shot at a time. And we’ll see what happens.”

Grace overcame a rough patch in the middle of his round — three bogeys in five holes — and shot a 70. The leaders were at 4-under 206.

Day chose not to speak to the media out of sheer exhaustion. He offered a few comments to a USGA official and then headed to his motor home to lie down.

“I didn’t feel that great

coming out early,” said Day, who dropped two shots in his opening four holes to fall as many as seven shots behind at one point. “I felt pretty groggy on the front nine just from the drugs that I had in my system, then kind of flushed that out on the back nine. The vertigo came back a little bit on the 13th tee box, and then felt nauseous all day. I started shaking on 16 tee box and then just tried to get it in, really. Just wanted to get it in.”

He said it was worse than the vertigo he suffered last year at Firestone that caused him to withdraw. This time, he kept playing.

“I think the goal was just to go through today and see how it goes,” he said.

For everyone else, it was a matter of hanging on.

Spieth holed a pair of 35-foot birdie putts early and stretched his lead to three shots until he gave them back with a pair of three-putts, slapping his knee at the miscues.

“Just need to limit the mistakes tomorrow,” he said.

Johnson built a twoshot lead early on the back nine, only to give it back with a double bogey on the 13th hole with a 7-iron into the bunker and three putts. It was his only bad swing of the day. Johnson hit all 14 fairways.

Louis Oosthuizen, meanwhile, set himself up for a shot at U.S. Open history. No one since World War II has ever shot 77 in the first round of the U.S. Open and gone on to win.

University Place, Wash. — After a few days of hearing varying — and increasingly critical — descriptions of the greens at Chambers Bay, Larry Gilhuly responded with one of his own.

“Smooth as a billiard table,” said Gilhuly, the Agronomist for the West Region of the USGA, which means he helped head up the team that prepared the course for the U.S. Open. “These are superb putting conditions.”

That was news to many players, most of whom finished their rounds and then reached for their thesaurus to find ever more creative ways to express their disgust.

Henrik Stenson on Friday said navigating the greens at Chambers Bay was like “putting on broccoli.”

Asked about that comment Saturday, fellow golfer Rory McIlroy shook his head.

“I don’t think they are as green as broccoli,” he said. “I think they’re more like cauliflower.”

Sergio Garcia, who on Thursday took to Twitter to rip the conditions of the greens, reiterated his criticism during an interview on the FOX telecast Saturday, saying it was like playing the NBA Finals on a basketball court that didn’t have a backboard and instead had slopes and holes on the court and that the greens are “not up to the standard” necessary for a U.S. Open.

Gilhuly, though, said he was “over-the-top excited” about the job done by the crew preparing the course each day.

“All I can tell you is that (USGA president) Mike Davis is very pleased with the putting surfaces,” he said. “And if he’s pleased then we are pleased.”

Gilhuly said he thinks the criticism is due solely to four greens that he acknowledged have presented some challenges along the way — 1, 4, 12 and 15.

Gilhuly said those greens suffered some damage from being played on during the winter of 2013-14 and have required some extra attention to get ready for the Open.

“It’s just these four outliers,” he said. “And it gets painted like they are all bad when it couldn’t be further from the truth.”

Kim’s artwork will be on display in her “Inner Sifting” exhibit, which opens Friday along with fellow artist in residence Tonja Torgerson’s exhibit, “Momento Mori.” Below, one of Kim’s sculptures is pictured.

Artist-in-residence exhibitions to be held concurrently for first time

awrence Arts Center artists-in-residence Gunyoung Kim and Tonja Torgerson have spent the last year teaching classes, participating in community outreach programs and creating bodies of work that will be shown exhibitions at the Lawrence Arts Center throughout this month and the next.

In a departure from previous years, their exhibitions will be held concurrently, with Kim’s shown in the Arts Center’s front gallery and Torgerson’s on display in the middle gallery.

Both shows will open with a reception Friday from 5 to 9 p.m. at the Lawrence Arts Center, 940 New Hampshire St. The artists will also give an Insight Art Talk at 7 p.m. July 9, also at the Arts Center.

“We’re experimenting a little bit,” says Ben Ahlvers, the Arts Center’s exhibitions director, adding that staffers are making changes to each gallery space to complement the artists’ work.

“I think they’re excited to have their reception the same night.”

‘Inner Sifting’ “All that glitters is not gold.”

It’s a well-known saying that, in its most popular form, can be traced back to Shakespeare’s “The Merchant of Venice,” and may even have roots in Aesop’s fables.

It’s also a major theme in “Inner Sifting,” Gunyoung Kim’s upcoming exhibition at the Arts Center. By her count, all 14 of the human figures Kim created for the show feature hints of gold leafing.

“We think of gold as valu-

Where: Lawrence Arts Center, 940 New Hampshire St. Cost: Free able because we’ve learned that it’s valuable and we’re told that it’s valuable, and it looks valuable, because it’s shiny and glittery. But at the same time, that doesn’t mean it’s valuable,” Kim says. “I’ve started using gold with that idea in mind — What’s really important?

What’s valuable?”

‘Inside Out’ has That Pixar Feeling Y ou know that song “Don’t Know What You Got (Till It’s Gone)” by Cinderella? Man, it’s so true.

Yeah, I know that phrase was already a well-worn cliche before Tom Kiefer and company turned it into a power ballad monster, but just because they didn’t invent it doesn’t mean that it doesn’t hold some kind of strange potency.

Animation studio Pixar didn’t invent poignancy either, but as far as movies with mainstream appeal go, they seem to have perfected a very specific version of it.

Let’s call it “That Pixar Feeling.”

That Pix’ar Feel’ing n. 1. an emotional state achieved when the movie you are watching realizes a universal truth that connects with your own personal experience, causing both joy and sadness simultaneously.

This studio of talented storytellers hit a stride in 2007 with a four-year run of classics: “Ratatouille,” “Wall-E,” “Up,” and “Toy Story 3.” Besides dissecting our various fears and hopes and serving them back to us through clever premises, empathetic characters, and even more clever plot developments, Pixar always innovated in the presentation department as well.

While other animation studios were content to serve up the usual stream of talking-animal adventures with stereotypical characters and standard design choices, Pixar employed people like cinematographer Roger Deakins to help them understand how to reproduce the effect of light refracting through a lens. This would help them achieve a photorealistic look on “Wall-E” that is still unparalleled in the world of computer animation.

Immediately following that run, it was looking as if Pixar had contracted a severe case of sequelitis, with tepid franchise extensions like “Cars 2” and “Monsters University.” The original story “Brave” was released between these films, and it was admirable for its girl-empowering theme, but lacked the emotional gut-punch of its predecessors.

After this three-film streak of weaker material, I was definitely singing Cinderella and pining for the days of old.

Looking forward to Pixar’s upcoming slate of films, there are more sequels on the way (“The Incredibles 2,” “Toy Story 4,” “Cars 3,” “Finding Dory”), so we can only hope that these efforts are more successful than the last two.

If the new Pixar movie “Inside Out” is any indication, this should be no problem.

I am overjoyed to report that That Pixar Feeling is back. In a big way.

“Inside Out” hits you in all the feels and is full of perceptive moments that will leave you both howling with laughter and fighting back tears.

The miraculous thing about this feat is that the film’s premise — that

SCENE STEALERS

ERIC MELIN

eric@scene-stealers.com there’s a team of anthropomorphic emotions (Joy, Sadness, Fear, Disgust, Anger) working around the clock inside our heads — is fraught with hazard from a storytelling standpoint.

The screenplay (from director Pete Docter, with co-screenwriters Meg LeFauve and Josh Cooley) walks a dangerous tightrope: If the emotions have too much control over the human characters, it will make the humans feel like puppets, and we’ll be alienated from any kind of shared experience.

Think about it: How creepy is it to imagine that you have no free will; that every decision you make is based on the actions of five cute little pixies on the bridge of the Enterprise inside your head?

On the other hand, if the humans are reacting solely to outside stimuli, then the actions that the emotions take inside the humans’ heads don’t matter at all, and the movie loses its urgency.

Docter and company find a solution to have it both ways, achieving an extraordinary balance, and “Inside Out” becomes a poignant rumination on the nature of personality and the innocence of childhood — all without pandering to the obvious.

“Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind” made a case in 2004 for the importance of memories both good and bad and how essential they are to one’s character. “Inside Out” visualizes those memories as glowing marbles, color-coded to their corresponding emotion.

As little Riley Anderson (voiced by Kaitlyn Dias) grows up and her life circumstances change, her personality changes as well. The older marbles begin to fade and turn gray, until they vanish in a poof of dust, never to return to her head.

It’s a powerful metaphor for growing up, and this brilliantly visualized concept anchors “Inside Out” in a way that ensures it will resonate for years to come. Kudos to Pixar for again reminding us that animated entertainment can appeal to all ages and speak to universal truths.

All of this sounds heavy and portentous, and I admire Docter for not being afraid to get a little scary and a little sad, too. That’s one of the things people remember the most about “Bambi,” after all. “Inside Out” also glides effortlessly

Disney-Pixar/AP Photo

Joy, voiced by Amy Poehler, in “Inside Out” back and forth from light and fluffy territory.

Did I mention that it’s also a thrilling adventure picture and that there’s a ton of incisive, funny jokes sprinkled throughout?

Alert viewers will spot thematic similarities with the “Toy Story” series and Docter’s “Up,” but “Inside Out” is still a startlingly fresh concoction that reimagines our emotions

in a behind-the-scenes kind of way that will probably be referenced in popular culture from here on out.

I’ve already had several “Inside Out” moments and I only saw the movie

Arts Center announces 2015-16 artists in residence

Artists CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1D

Kim, who grew up in South Korea and studied ceramics at Kookmin University in Seoul before eventually earning her master’s degree in the same discipline from Ohio State University, has explored a similar concept throughout her career.

Much of her work examines the struggle between our true natures and what we project to the rest of the world, often through facial expressions, disfigurement, staging and gestures.

For “Inner Sifting,�

Kim would often snap portraits of folks around the Arts Center (students, visitors, staffers) and her church in North Lawrence, asking each participant a question like, “What do you think of the word ‘believe’?�

Later, she’d “capture� those expressions of contemplation in her pieces. “They’re thinking, ‘What’s valuable?’ They’re not happy or sad,� she says of the figures. “They’re in the process of thinking, ‘Is that right?’�

Kim’s first year in the United States was marked with internal turmoil, as the college student experienced the homesickness and cultural differences that come with living in a foreign country. “On the outside, I’d tell people, ‘I’m fine,’ but when I was alone, I was struggling with my emotions,� she says, relating that emotional disconnect to her art. “It’s like my ideas fit perfectly with ceramics, because when you build it, it looks solid, but it should be hollow. So there’s always this inner space or emptiness inside.�

These days, she’s feeling more attached to her adopted home, perhaps thanks in part to Lawrence and its “friendly people� — Kim says it’s her favorite city she’s visited in the U.S. so far.

Kim’s parents are visiting Lawrence next week (it’s their first time in the states) to see her show, after which they’ll accompany their daughter on a trip through the Great American West. Among the highlights: Seattle and the Grand Canyon.

After that, Kim will undergo a fall residency at the Archie Bray Foundation for the Ceramic Arts in Helena, Mont. But she’ll return to Lawrence in time for the Arts Center’s Ceramics Symposium in the fall, she promises. “I’m sad to leave, but at the same time, I’m excited for the new adventure,� Kim says.

‘Memento Mori’ Growing up on a farm in northern Minnesota, Tonja Torgerson was constantly surrounded by wildlife.

She ended up leaving her country home at age 16 to attend the Perpich Center for Arts Education in the Minneapolis suburbs, and has since lived and worked in urban areas — studying studio art at the University of Minnesota and later getting a master’s degree in printmaking at Syracuse University.

But nature — its inher-

LAWRENCE ARTS CENTER ARTIST-IN-RESIDENCE AND PRINTMAKER TONJA TORGERSON will have her work on display during her “Momento Mori� exhibit starting Friday at the Lawrence Arts Center. Below, some of Torgerson’s prints are pictured.

ent beauty as well as its more unpleasant realities — seemed to stick with her over the years.

Much of her work — including the prints, drawings, and books and photography documenting her public art projects on display in her Arts Center exhibition — is inspired by what Torgerson calls “the temporary quality of our bodies.� “This work in the show is going to be much more directly about death,� says Torgerson, who will remain at the Arts Center as a printmaking fellow once her residency ends next month. “I think previously, my figures have been all about coping with illness and trying to

put on a good face about it, but these figures are much more accepting of that fate.�

Meaning “remember (that you have) to die� in Latin, “Memento Mori� is a reflection of Torgerson’s fascination with art history, which she minored in during her undergrad years.

For the exhibition, she’s created a series of pen-and-ink drawings that she’s calling “Vanitas,� a form of symbolic art popular in the Dutch Golden Age that used stilllife paintings to communicate the futility of earthly goods and desires.

Rachel Ruysch, a prominent Dutch painter who was one of the few

dining + entertainment + services + retail + more

working female artists of the era, inspired Torgerson’s “Vanitas.� “There’d be all these beautiful still-lifes of flowers, but they’d be slightly tarnished or slightly broken, and it was supposed to remind you that all of the beautiful things in life are temporal,� she says of the art form, which is echoed in her own “Vanitas� through decaying human bodies covered in blooming flowers and corpseeating insects. — Features reporter Joanna Hlavacek can be reached at jhlavacek@ljworld.com and 832-6388.

Printmaker Amanda Maciuba and ceramicist Christy Wittmer are the Lawrence Arts Center’s 2015-2016 artists-in-residence.

Starting Aug. 1, the artists will teach classes, assist in running studios, take part in communitydriven projects and create a new body of work during their one-year residency at the Lawrence Arts Center, 940 New Hampshire St. Aside from quality of work and innovation, artists are chosen based on their effectiveness as teachers and communicators, says Kyla Strid, director of residencies and adult education at the Arts Center. She says that out of the 40 applicants, Maciuba and Wittmer had the strongest “balance of all these attributes.� “Ours is not a residency where you can hide in your studio and not interact with the community,� says Strid, who participated in the Arts Center’s 2013-2014 residency program before taking on her current position. “We want them to be a part of Lawrence and engage with students and everyone who walks through the doors.�

Maciuba graduated from the University of Buffalo in 2009 with a bachelor’s degree in visual studies and a concentration in print media before earning a master’s degree in printmaking from the University of Iowa this year.

She is also the recipient of a Certificate of the Book from the University of Iowa’s Center for the Book.

Maciuba, who has shown her work nationally, completed an artist residency

at the Iowa Lakeside Laboratory last summer. “We’re really interested in Amanda’s work because she’s doing a lot with place, and we’re really interested in placemaking and arts in the community,� Strid says. “We thought her work was really relevant to what we’re working on and what we want to engage in down the road.�

Wittmer received a bachelor’s degree in painting and sculpture from Miami University in Ohio, has studied ceramics at San Diego City College and Ohio State University and earned a master’s degree in ceramics from the University of Cincinnati last year.

Since then, she has been working as a glaze chemist at Cincinnati’s Rockwood Pottery. Wittmer has participated in artist-in-residence programs in Berlin, Jingdezhen, China and most recently at the Banff Centre in Banff, Alberta. “Christy’s work was really strong, material-wise.

The way she handles materials and how she uses them in space in relation to the body, we thought would add something interesting to the conversation here,� Strid says. “Christy is really and truly invested in her work.� — Features reporter Joanna Hlavacek can be reached at jhlavacek@ljworld.com.

MARLO ANGELL, LAWRENCE ARTS CENTER DIGITAL MEDIA DIRECTOR, CENTER, helps Van Go student filmmakers Darius Vann and Annastasia Payne, back right, compose a shot as they shoot portions of a short film on March 12 along the south bank of the Kansas River. Their film will be among those made by Van Go and Boys and Girls Club students shown at the Outreach Film Showcase event Friday at the Lawrence Arts Center as part of the Free State Festival.

Young directors get opportunity to showcase films during festival

By Joanna Hlavacek Twitter: @HlavacekJoanna

Cristy Sheppard has a longheld fascination with YouTube and how its so-called “YouTubers” have managed to build careers out of creating and posting videos to the contentsharing website.

So, when the 21-year-old heard about the Free State Festival’s Education Outreach program, she jumped at the chance to participate — if only to gain basic video-editing skills.

“I didn’t really have an interest in filmmaking,” says Sheppard, who was one of about 20 young people from Van Go, Inc. and the Boys and Girls Club of Lawrence to participate in the second-annual project, which guided students in a five-month crash course in film production. “I did enjoy learning the ins and outs of what it takes to be a director and the person behind the camera” by the end.

Along with partner Kyra Copeland, Sheppard juggled all aspects of filmmaking — from screenwriting to cinematography to sound recording, editing and sound design — to create her first short film, “Casual Encounter.”

Now, Sheppard will show the results of her hard work Friday evening at the Lawrence Arts Center, where all seven films created during the project will be screened at the Free State Festival’s Outreach Film Showcase.

I think short films are little slices of life. They’re such an important contribution to the cinematic landscape.”

— Marlo Angell, Free State Festival artistic director of film and performance

IF YOU GO What: Outreach Film Showcase When: Friday from 6 to 7 p.m.

Where: Lawrence Arts Center, 940 New Hampshire St. Cost: Free Funded by a grant from the National Endowment for the Arts, the program is led by Marlo Angell, who studied film at the University of Southern California and serves as the Free State Festival’s artistic director of film and performance.

From January to May, Angell — with support from Van Go staffers — guided students, ranging from sixth-graders all the way up to young adults, through twice-a-week classes in digital filmmaking.

The idea, she says, was to let each pair of fledgling filmmakers tell their own stories through five-minute silent films — a good jumping-off point for those just starting out in movies, she says.

“I think short films are little slices of life. They’re such an important contribution to the

cinematic landscape,” Angell says. “You can really hone in on what it means to tell a story visually.”

Angell, who also supervised last year’s Education Outreach project, says she’s continually “surprised and impressed” by the quality of the films, most of which were produced by teenagers with little to no prior experience.

For her, much of the fun comes from witnessing her students gradually become more confident with the technical aspects of filmmaking, which she says can be intimidating at first.

It’s like watching your child finally remove the training wheels and ride off on a bicycle, Angell says of the young filmmakers, who are now “completely comfortable shooting their own B-roll and going off on their own with their camera.”

Even if her students don’t end up working in movies, Angell says she knows they’ve learned lessons that will serve them well in the real world.

“Film is such a collaborative art form,” Angell says. “It enables you to be able to receive constructive criticism and give

it, which is a real skill in filmmaking and out in the job market.”

Additionally, she worked with Van Go’s Arts Train Apprentice Artists (young people aged 18 to 21) to produce a documentary about the nonprofit’s alumni, which will also be screened during the showcase.

Ethan Ward, whose supernatural time-traveling flick “Justin Tyme” will debut Friday, is helping to finish that documentary now.

After wrapping “Justin Tyme,” which he produced with fellow Van Go apprentice Luke Pierce, the 19-year-old started working as an intern (he says Angell calls him her ‘production assistant’) for the Free State Festival.

He’s a little nervous about showing his film at the festival — which also features work from more established industry professionals like Tig Notaro and Jon Ronson — but Ward says seeing the final cut of “Justin Tyme” last month among his peers has given him confidence.

“We watched it as a huge group with a lot of the staff at Van Go, and seeing their reactions made me realize we did a lot of things pretty well,” says Ward, who also wrote and produced the film’s score with Pierce. “It made it seem not just like a little amateur film, but something better than that.”

Kansas Notable Books List includes works by local writers, artists

By Staff Reports

Three Lawrence residents are among the honorees on this year’s Kansas Notable Book List.

The list — which honors 15 “quality titles with wide public appeal” published in the past year, either written by Kansans or about a Kansasrelated topic — was announced last week by the State Library of Kansas.

Lawrencians Lindsey Yankey, Caryn Mirriam-Goldberg and John Charlton, along with the other honorees, will be celebrated in September at the Kansas Book Festival in Topeka.

Yankey is the author and illustrator of the children’s book “Bluebird,” which tells the story of a little bird who goes off an adventure to find her missing friend, the wind.

Poems by Mirriam-

Goldberg, the 2009-2013 Kansas Poet Laureate, are combined with Stephen Locke’s photography in “Chasing Weather: Tornadoes, Tempests, and Thunderous Skies in Word and Image.”

And John Charlton, a now-retired Kansas Geological Survey photographer, revisits locations shot by Alexander Gardner in 1867 of construction of the Union Pacific Railway across Kansas in James E. Sherow’s “Railroad Empire Across the Heartland: Rephotographing Alexander Gardner’s Westward Journey.”

Here’s the rest of the list: l “999 Kansas Characters: Ad Astra, a Biographical Series,” by Dave Webb, Terry Rombeck and Beccy Tanner l “A Carol Dickens Christmas: A Novel,” by Thomas Fox Averill

A collection of blackand-white portraits offering a rare and intimate glimpse of Beat Generation writer and former Lawrencian William S. Burroughs is now available to the public.

Patrick Clement, a recent Kansas University graduate, is the editor behind “7786 - Burroughs, Wm.” that he says sheds new light on Burroughs.

Clement was a senior in film and media studies when he assembled “7786 - Burroughs, Wm.” from more than 20,000 previously unseen photo negatives of the counter-culture icon taken at the former Hixon Studios in Lawrence in 1983. The book explores concepts of iconography and identity performance, Clement said in a news release The book was published in part through Undergraduate Research and Interdisciplinary Research Grant Funding from KU, as well as with the help of a successful Kickstarter crowdfunding campaign last winter.

“7786 - Burroughs, Wm.”, which is now available for $10 at The Raven Book Store at 6 E. Seventh St., also received an Outstanding Research Award at KU’s 2015 Undergraduate Research Symposium last month.

All questions related to the project shall be directed to Mike Hutto, City of Eudora Director of Public Works, at (785) 542-3100 or mhutto@cityofeudoeraks.gov.

Take time for menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s health this Fatherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Day Dear Readers: Happy Fatherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Day to all of the men in our reading audience who have had the pleasures and responsibilities of raising children. This includes fathers, stepfathers, grandfathers and those who have stepped in as father figures for children who need them.

Bless you all. Having a caring father is not only one of lifeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s great joys, but fathers also are tremendously important to a childâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s development.

Studies have shown that children who maintain close relationships with loving fathers do better in school and are more likely to stay off drugs.

Please take the time today to let yours know you are thinking of them.

Dear Annie: Please urge your readers, both male and female, to pay more attention to menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s health. Womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s

Annieâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Mailbox

health gets a great deal of attention all year, but menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s health is rarely promoted.

Menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s life expectancy still lags almost six years behind womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s. Many women are negatively affected by menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s poor health and early deaths.

Women should urge the men in their lives to get annual physical checkups at the doctorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s office and get more exercise.

And men should listen to that good advice. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; A Menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Health Advocate

â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Detectiveâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; returns, but disappoints The second incarnation of â&#x20AC;&#x153;True Detectiveâ&#x20AC;? (8 p.m., HBO) arrives, landing somewhere between a minor disappointment and a major dud.

In addition to the stellar performances by its stars, the first season was noteworthy for writer Nic Pizzolattoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s novelistic approach. But Woody Harrelson and Matthew McConaughey are gone this season, and Pizzolattoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s magic touch seems to have vanished with them.

L o o k for Colin Farrell as troubled, nearly psychopathic police detective Ray Velcoro, who is joined by Ani Bezzerides (Rachel McAdams), a seemingly rational cop from a family with overlapping levels of weirdness. They join forces on a murder case apparently linked to a property development hatched by minor mobster Frank Semyon (Vince Vaughn).

Like too many mysteries set in the shadows of Southern Californiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s film noir tradition, the script for â&#x20AC;&#x153;Trueâ&#x20AC;? appears to have been hard-boiled beyond comprehensibility.

Semyonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s dialogue and random utterances have been distilled to cryptic meaninglessness. Vaughn is all but paralyzed by pretentious dialogue.

A series as ambitious as â&#x20AC;&#x153;Trueâ&#x20AC;? contains many mysteries. But the answers to basic questions remain key to the success of any drama. After the first episode, do we have a vague idea of whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going on?

Do we care? Do we like any of these characters? Do we wish to spend any more time with them? By the end of the first hour, my answer to these questions was an emphatic, if disappointed, â&#x20AC;&#x153;no, no, no and noâ&#x20AC;?

And I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m alone.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Masterpieceâ&#x20AC;? (8 p.m., PBS, check local listings) returns to its roots with â&#x20AC;&#x153;Poldark,â&#x20AC;? based on Winston Grahamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s books.

Aidan Turner (â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Hobbitâ&#x20AC;?) stars as Capt. Ross Poldark, a veteran of Britainâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s failed efforts to quash Americaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s independence. Long thought dead, he returns to find his fatherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fortune squandered and his beloved fiancee betrothed to a far less dashing man.

The original BBC adaptation of â&#x20AC;&#x153;Poldarkâ&#x20AC;? was a hit on PBS in the 1970s and can still be streamed on the Acorn TV service. This revival reminds us of how much miniseries and TV dramas have improved and advanced since then.

Dear Annie: I am responding to â&#x20AC;&#x153;Evil Stepmother,â&#x20AC;? whose husband didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to attend his daughterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s wedding because he wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t going to walk her down the aisle. We had the same situation.

My stepdaughter called her father to tell him that her maternal grandfather was going to give her away. For three weeks, my hus-

band struggled with whether or not to attend and finally decided to not go because it would have been too painful for him. I would have supported either decision. But three years later, his daughter humbly came to visit and explain that her mother had pushed her to do this and begged her fatherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s forgiveness.

When my daughter married, she faced this same choice. What she decided, all on her own, brought tears to our eyes. Both her father and her stepfather walked her down the aisle, one on each arm. It was beautiful and respectful.
