TOPEKA — Tax plans being considered by House and Senate Republican leaders would increase tax revenue coming to the state by $497 million to $821 million over a five-year period.

The proposals call for higher sales tax and lower income taxes but would produce a net gain of tax revenue over the next five years over current law, according to analyses by the Kansas Department of Legislative Research, which are being used by legislators.

Under current law, the 6.3 percent state sales tax is scheduled to decrease to 5.7 percent on July 1, less than State Rep. six weeks from now.

In tornado’s wake, city official wants review of shelter policies “

By Chad Lawhorn

clawhorn@ljworld.com

At least one Lawrence city commissioner wants an examination of what would happen if Lawrence was hit by a tornado similar in scale — almost 1.5 miles wide — to the one that ripped through Moore, Okla.

“There are all the schools and KU that come to mind,

but think about all the businesses that house thousands of people every day,” City Commissioner Jeremy Farmer said.

“If you were in a grocery store shopping that day, you are probably going to be shuffled to a back room and a walk-in cooler maybe held together by duct tape.”

Farmer is asking city staff members to take a look at the

thing more than we are right now.”

scheduled for today.

The various scenarios also reduce or eliminate itemized deductions, and significantly cut standard deductions while ratcheting down income tax rates.

Depending on the specific plan, the net effect is to bring in more revenue to the state, ranging from a cumulative $497 million to $821 million over a fiveyear period.

Democrats, including Sen. Tom Holland, DBaldwin City, call that a tax increase. “It’s a shifting of the tax burden from higher-income people to middle-class and lowerincome people,” Holland said.

Sales taxes take a larger portion of the budgets of low-income earners because they are paying the same rate for basic items, such as a gallon of milk, as high-wage earners.

State Rep. Arlen Siegfreid, R-Olathe, who is a member of the HouseSenate conference committee working on the tax plans, said the increased revenue was needed because of the deep tax cuts signed into law last year

by Gov. Sam Brownback.

“There have to be adjustments made to keep essentials going,” he said.

She was preceded in death by her parents and her husband, Charles S. Edwards. Effie is survived by her children, Carl Edwards and Mark Stotler, Lawrence, KS, Roy and Cindy Edwards, Spring Hill, KS and Glen and Denise Edwards, Overland Park, KS; three grandsons and three granddaughters; sisters, Lola and Jim Ellis, Wichita, KS and Anna Lee and William Ewert, Halstead, KS; four nephews and two nieces.

Last year, Brownback and the Legislature approved cuts in income tax rates, the elimination of income taxes for the owners of 191,000 businesses and the repeal of several tax credits aimed at helping low-income Kansans.

The House’s chief tax official, state Rep. Richard Carlson, R-St. Marys, noted that in fiscal year 2018, which starts July 1, 2017, the amount of revenue starts to decrease to the state as the income tax cuts are ratcheted down.

However, the five-year spread shows net gains to the state.

“It has always been a tax increase until you get to 2018,” said state Sen. Laura Kelly, D-Topeka.

And, she said, the state analyses of the various tax plans don’t show what will happen with local property taxes. Kelly argues that as the state fails to increase base state aid per pupil for schools, local property taxes will start to increase to fill in the gap.

And she noted that as the income tax cuts get larger, the budget gets tighter in future years.

“And that is without a nickel more for schools or state employee pay raises,” she said. “This is just flatline, and then we are still in the hole,” she said.

L AWRENCE J OURNAL -W ORLD

Parents and relatives of graduating seniors are giving mixed reviews to the Lawrence school district’s decision to hold commencement ceremonies on back-to-back weekdays instead of on a Saturday or Sunday as it has done in the past.

Staci Ahlvers, whose son Grant Taylor-Ahlvers graduated from Free State High School on Wednesday night, said it proved inconvenient for her family.

“A lot of family couldn’t come who would have liked to have been here from out of town because it was in the middle of the week,” she said.

But Tom McMahon, whose son Lee also graduated from Free State, said it worked out fine for him.

“I just took a day’s vacation,” he said. “It’s a special day, so it was not a problem.”

The change in schedule might have caught some families by surprise because the decision to hold this year’s ceremonies on

Shelters CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A

But area school districts have begun installing FEMA-designated safe rooms — specially designed concrete structures designed to provide “near absolute protection” — as part of new building projects or renovations projects.

Eudora Elementary was the first in 2008 when it received a $566,000 federal grant to build the cafeteria area of its elementary school to safe room standards. It is designed to accommodate all 800 students and staff members during a storm. The Baldwin school district has two safe rooms: one at its elementary school and an 1,800-person facility that also serves as the district’s performing arts center.

But the Baldwin project begins to illuminate the costs that could be involved in building large, multiple structures across the city. The project cost about $4.5 million, according to figures provided at the time the district received a $3.5 million grant for the facility in 2009.

Bishop Seabury Academy in Lawrence expects to begin construction next month on a safe room that will double as a locker room for the private school’s approximately 200 students and staff, said Betsy Alford, a secretary at the school.

The Lawrence public schools, however, have no facilities with FEMA safe

weekdays was actually made more than a year ago, at the Lawrence school board’s April 9, 2012, meeting.

At that meeting, which was reported in the Journal-World the following day, Free State Principal Ed West and Lawrence High Principal Matt Brungardt reported that it had long been a challenge to coordinate the two high school ceremonies around Kansas University’s graduation.

“The school administrators also feel strongly that graduation should closely follow the last day of classes for seniors,” the principals wrote in a memo to the board at the time.

In years past, the schools used to have back-to-back ceremonies at Memorial Stadium. But that changed a few years ago when the high schools got their own football stadiums. Since then, they’ve held separate graduations at their own stadiums.

This year, the last day for seniors was Thursday, May 16. KU had scheduled its graduation the following Sunday, May 19, and

rooms, although all facilities have severe weather response plans, said district spokeswoman Julie Boyle.

The district will undertake several school renovations in the coming years using a recently approved $92.5 million school bond issue. In a statement, Superintendent Rick Doll said the district’s bond planning committee has recommended architects take FEMA safe room guidelines into consideration when designing the projects. But decisions on the actual construction of those structures will still have to be made by the board as the design process progresses.

Doll indicated the district wasn’t counting on any FEMA grant funds to build such structures.

Farmer stopped short of saying the city ought to change its building code to require safe rooms in such public structures, but he also didn’t rule out advocating for such a change.

“I don’t know the answer right now,” Farmer said, but it will be a priority of mine to find an answer.

This is not leaving my radar screen anytime soon.”

Personally prepared Rodrigue, with Emergency Management, said her agency would welcome a discussion on how the community can bolster its defenses against severe weather. But she said any system of community storm shelters likely would come with complex questions.

She said FEMA stan-

reserved Monday the 20th as a backup date in case of rain on Sunday.

That meant the next available days were Tuesday and Wednesday, the 21st and 22nd.

It’s still not certain, however, whether the Lawrence district will follow the same pattern in future years.

“The committee operated under the presumption that the dates were being recommended for next year (2013) only and no (precedent) for future years was being set,” the memo from West and Brungardt said.

“If the events go well next year and weekday graduations continue, both principals feel a consistent and permanent plan would be best.”

Kim Johnson, whose son Jackson Lockwood graduated from Free State on Wednesday, said it worked out for their family because her husband teaches at Washburn University in Topeka, which held its graduation on May 11.

“It really allowed us to separate it up. I truly appreciated it,” Johnson said.

dards recommend shelters be within five minutes of a person’s home. She said that would require a large number of shelters to provide community-wide coverage in Lawrence, and finding sites that could accommodate parking, backup power supply and other infrastructure could be challenging. Plus, she said creating a system to staff and manage the shelters during storms would be significant.

“There are a lot of considerations that would have to be discussed,” Rodrigue said.

She said her department urges families and individuals to make their own basic plans for where they would go in the event of a tornado. She said that plan should include not only preparations for a storm striking when they are at home but also when they are out and about in the community. The department also suggests all people have an emergency kit prepared that includes, food, water, extra clothes, personal medications, a whistle and proof of residency. She said residents of Moore were finding it difficult to return to their neighborhoods unless they could show law enforcement officers proof of residency.

“We know there are a lot of uncomfortable issues to think about, but each person needs to take that step to be personally prepared,” Rodrigue said.

Largest tanker base to be in Wichita

2 men charged in double shooting

By Roxana Hegeman

By Ian Cummings

Associated Press

WICHITA — McConnell Air Force Base was selected Wednesday as the main operating site for the Air Force’s new KC-46A air refueling tanker, making Wichita home to the U.S. military’s largest tanker base in the world.

Members of Kansas’ congressional delegation issued a joint statement announcing the Air Force decision. The aircraft will replace the Moran aging KC135 fleet flown by crews for nearly 60 years.

The Air Force will base 36 of the new aircraft at McConnell starting in 2016. It also will be investing $192 million in upgrades to the base, the delegation said.

McConnell was chosen over bases in North Dakota, Oklahoma and Washington.

“Wichita is the air tanker capital of the world now and it will be in the future,” Republican Sen. Jerry Moran said. “Today’s decision further establishes Kansas as the home of the nation’s soldiers and airmen.”

Outstanding kindergarten teacher wins annual Bobs’ Award, $10,000

By Peter Hancock phancock@ljworld.com

Ryan McAdoo, a kindergarten teacher at Hillcrest School, was honored Wednesday with the Lawrence Schools Foundation’s annual Bobs’ Award, recognizing outstanding teachers in the Lawrence school district.

The award, which comes with a $10,000 check, was presented at an all-school assembly at Hillcrest Wednesday morning, the next to last day of classes for elementary students.

McAdoo, a graduate of Kansas University, joined the Lawrence district in 2009. He was featured in an April 21 article in the Journal-World as one of the few male

teachers in Lawrence who work in early elementary education.

He currently is working on a master’s degree as a reading specialist. He also is a former gymnast and has competed in national yoga competitions.

Jennifer Wilk, a colleague who teaches first grade at Hillcrest, described McAdoo as “an absolutely, incredibly unique and amazingly devoted teacher.”

“His students are captivated by his animated lessons in all subject areas,” Wilk said. “He knows his students, knows their needs and knows what to do to meet them.”

The Bobs’ Award is given each year to a teacher who “exemplifies extraordinary instruction

skills; reflects commitment to quality education and dedication to teaching; focuses on individual student achievement; administers to the whole child, guiding each student to achieve his full potential; and is deemed to be proficient, caring, adaptable, and professional,” the foundation said.

It is named after two anonymous donors who share the first name Bob, the foundation said.

The Lawrence Schools Foundation is a nonprofit charitable organization that raises money to enhance educational programs in the district.

Two Topeka men are facing charges in connection with a shooting in Lawrence early Sunday morning that left two men in critical condition.

Douglas County prosecutors charged Erick Shakeel Smith, 20, Wednesday with two counts of aggravated battery. Steven Michael Gigger, 29, also arrested Smith in connection with the shooting, has been charged with one count of misdemeanor battery and one count of criminal possession of a Gigger firearm. Gigger spent time in Kansas prisons after being convicted of aggravated robbery in Shawnee County in 2002.

The two men were arrested Monday in Shawnee County after investigators with the Lawrence Police Department named them as

BRIEFLY Ex-officer charged with bribe scheme WICHITA (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; A former Wichita police officer has been charged with conspiring to bribe a car-theft victim to save her job.

The U.S. attorneyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s office says ex-officer Joletta Vallejo, 34, was indicted Wednesday on charges of wire fraud and conspiracy.

Also charged in the case are Patrick Melendrez, 40, and Courtney Foster, 30, both of Wichita.

The defendantsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; home phones were either disconnected or unanswered Wednesday. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not known whether they had lawyers.

Prosecutors say an

internal police investigation concluded that Vallejo violated department rules in handling reports of a domestic violence case and a related car theft.

The indictment accuses Vallejo of arranging last August for Melendrez to pay the theft victim $150 to recant his statement and another $150 if she kept her job.

An EF4 is the secondstrongest on the scale used to measure the strength of tornadoes.

astated McConnell and led to a complete makeover.

That reconstruction effort gave McConnell a solid platform and a â&#x20AC;&#x153;leg upâ&#x20AC;? on such competitions.

The decision also fulfills a promise made by an Air Force general when in a â&#x20AC;&#x153;highly politicalâ&#x20AC;? move, Roberts said, the bombers were pulled out of McConnell and relocated to South Dakota. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think it went the right way and I just feel very gratified that finally promises made to me â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the largest tanker base in the world â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and promises kept,â&#x20AC;? Roberts said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They pulled out the bomber and we got the tanker instead.â&#x20AC;?

Roberts said the tankers give the United States military access to anywhere in the world when tensions flare up. The new planes would replace the aging tanker fleet, about a third of which is on the ground getting repaired at any time. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This has been a long time coming, desperately needed, but this really makes McConnell,â&#x20AC;? Roberts said.

He also credited the support of the people of Wichita, who did not give up on the tanker.

McConnell supports more than 17,000 people, both military and civilian,

with an economic impact of $619 million to the city.

The number of people at the base is expected to stay about the same for now, but it could increase as the planes arrive, Roberts said.

Gov. Sam Brownback called the decision good for Kansas and a credit to the men and women of McConnell. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Although there is more work ahead, we are very grateful for this reaffirmation by the Air Force of the critical role which McConnell plays in meeting its world-wide requirements,â&#x20AC;? Brownback said in a new release.

In a separate competition to host 12 tankers, Forbes Field in Topeka lost out to Pease Air Force Base in New Hampshire, but the delegation said the Topeka base could be considered for future refueling assignments.

Altus Air Force Base in southwestern Oklahoma won the competition to host the tanker flight training school.

While McConnell was selected the â&#x20AC;&#x153;preferred alternateâ&#x20AC;? to operate the tanker fleet, the process still requires doing an environmental impact statement and subsequent public comment period before the decision is finalized.

On Wednesday, Smith remained in Douglas County Jail with bond set at $150,000. Before he was arrested Monday, he had been free on a $20,000 bond after a January arrest in Topeka on suspicion of aggravated battery, according to court records.

If convicted of aggravated battery, Smith could face a prison sentence of between 38 months and 14

years in prison for each count, depending on his criminal history.

Gigger remained in custody with bond set at $50,000. Both Smith and Gigger are scheduled to appear in court today.

No updates on the gunshot victimsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; conditions have been available since Monday, when Holford was reported to be in critical, but stable, condition.

SCENES FROM THE INAUGURAL PRODUCTION OF “NIGHTMARES: A DEMONSTRATION OF THE SUBLIME” are performed by the Buran Theater Company in Brooklyn, N.Y. The group, started by KU alumni Adam Burnett and Jud Knudsen, is a traveling theater with a twist: Each show is completely recast with each new location, so each show is unique. Kansas University theater students will be performing “Nightmares” this weekend at the Inge Theatre at Murphy Hall.

dam Burnett’s work is never finished.

“We develop shows over a process, and that process reveals itself as we go along,” the 2008 Kansas University graduate says. “The idea is that a show is a constant workin-progress.”

Burnett, along with fellow KU alumnus Jud Knudsen (2007 graduate), is the founder of the Buran Theatre Company. The group specializes in traveling theater with a twist. Where a regular touring company casts a show, rehearses, and then takes it on the road, Buran starts from scratch at each location.

“In each city, we recast the show completely,” Burnett says.

“Our main focus is taking the idea we are confronting and see what new things we find in it with each production,” Knudsen adds.

IF YOU GO

“Nightmares: A Demonstration of the Sublime” by the Buran Theater Company stages Friday and Saturday in the William Inge Theatre at Murphy Hall on the KU campus. Tickets are pay-what-you-will with a minimum price of $5. Curtain is at 7:30 p.m. The show is not recommended for anyone under the age of 18.

The two men met while studying theater at KU. They founded Buran while still in school. Knudsen hung around Lawrence a year after graduating while Burnett finished. Then, despite continuing to work together, they went separate ways — Burnett to New York City, and Knudsen to Minneapolis.

Now, they work from different locations but travel together to produce their work.

“We’ve sort of developed satellite offices in several cities around the country,” Knudsen says.

The pair develop a show, and then take it on the road. In addition to performing in New York and Minneapolis, they routinely appear in Kansas City and Albuquerque.

“Everywhere we go, we immerse ourselves in the community,” Burnett explains. “We try to see as much theater as possible and get to know as many people as we can.”

That’s enabled them to build troupes of actors and technicians in each locale, each with its own quirks and personalities.

Pale Hearts’ first album runs gamut of emotions

By Mike Krings Special to the Journal-World

Sometimes, when a certain song comes on, you don’t know whether to dance or to cry. Pale Hearts aims to give people a little something for both urges.

The Lawrence rock quartet has finished its debut album, “Hollowtown,” a nine song collection that funnels joy, pain and a few other points on the map of the human experience into rock ’n’ roll.

“A friend of mine said it was darkly pretty, which I thought, ‘I don’t know what that means. I’m not normally associated with anything pretty unless it’s pretty upsetting,’” vocalist Rob Gillaspie said with a laugh when asked how he would describe the record. “Some of the songs you can dance to, some of ’em you can hang yourself to. And all the points in between.”

Whether dark, pretty or other adjectives chosen to describe the debut effort, it was a personal, homegrown affair. The band recorded all of the songs it had written in its year-plus of existence in a Lawrence bedroom with drummer Mike Young serving as producer and engineer. His bandmates are quick to give him credit for the quality of the final product.

“I think it worked out really well because I knew these songs going into it, they respected my input a little bit more than just

somebody else coming into the project, not knowing what was going on,” Young said. “It was like, knowing the songs beforehand really helped out, with having a voice and having another opinion as opposed to somebody else that was just working on it just work on it. To earn a buck.”

The band will officially release the record at a party Friday at Frank’s North Star Tavern in North Lawrence.

Gillaspie, who has played in numerous bands across town over the years, said “Hollowtown” was a painful yet fulfilling project personally.

While he’s been known for wild stage antics such as breaking bottles on his face, wearing ridiculously revealing stage attire and general chicanery, he calls the work with Pale Hearts the most mature, but still most fun work he’s done.

“Of all the stuff that I’ve ever recorded with any band, this is what I’m most proud of. I don’t want to make it sound like it’s the end of my musical career, but it’s kind of like the capper of the old portion of my career and the start of kind of more expansive

part of it,” Gillaspie said.

“I just think it’s a really solid rock-and-roll album.

It doesn’t sound like anything any other band in Lawrence is doing right now.”

Perhaps the album was satisfying for its creators because that old adage about all the best songs being about pain, heartbreak and misery proved true.

“2012 was a bad year for me,” Gillaspie said.

“There was homelessness, jail time, drug addiction, a divorce, a suicide, everything. This band and my current relationship were the only positive things that came out of it, and I funneled everything into the lyrics on this album.

It’s a dark piece of work, but it was very medicinal.

I’m glad to have it out of my system; it came from the place I think the best art comes from.”

But whether the listener chooses to focus on the danceable songs or the painful tracks, the band is happy with its debut effort and thinks people will enjoy it, whether they’ve never heard of Pale Hearts or whether they’ve been going to the band’s shows since the beginning.

“I think they’ll really like it,” bassist Melinda Robinson said. “Mike did a really good job of transferring some of the rawness of our live shows to an album that’s really well-put-together and just really true to the band that we are. Definitely worth it.”

A.B. Rials, who cooked more than a crepe or two during a previous job at Village Inn, says he decided to open a crepe shop back in 2005 “because there wasn’t one around.” He serves both savory- and sweetfilled crepes from his itsy-bitsy restaurant just off Massachusetts Street.

Okla. tornado damage cost: $2B, thousands of homes

By Ramit Plushnick-Masti and Sean Murphy Associated Press

MOORE, OKLA. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The tornado that struck an Oklahoma City suburb this week might have created $2 billion or more in damage as it tore through as many as 13,000 homes, multiple schools and a hospital, officials said Wednesday as they gave the first detailed account of the devastation.

At the same time, authorities released the identities of some of the 24 people, including 10 children, who perished. While anguish over the deaths was palpable as residents began picking up their shattered neighborhoods, many remained stunned that the twister didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t take a higher human toll during its 17 miles and 40 minutes on the ground.

The physical destruction was staggering.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;The tornado that weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re talking about is the 1 or 2 percent tornado,â&#x20AC;? Oklahoma Department of Emergency Management Director Albert Ashwood said of the twister, which measured a top-of-thescale EF5 with winds of at least 200 mph. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is the anomaly that flattens everything to the ground.â&#x20AC;?

As response teams transitioned into cleanup and recovery, Oklahoma City Mayor Mick Cornett, who sent police and fire crews from his city to assist the effort, said an early assessment estimated damage costs at between $1.5 billion and $2 billion.

The Oklahoma Insurance Department, meanwhile, said visual assessments of the extensive damage zone suggest the cost could be greater than the $2 billion from the 2011 tornado that struck Joplin, Mo., and killed nearly sev-

en times as many people.

Though there was little more than 10 minutes of warning that a tornado was on the ground Monday and headed for Moore, many in the area are accustomed to severe storms. The community of 56,000 people has been hit by four tornados since 1998, and residents already were on alert after weekend storms and days of warnings. Because the tornado hit in the afternoon, many others were away from the neighborhoods and out of harmâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s way at work.

Looking over the broken brick, smashed wood and scattered appliances that is all that remains of the home where Dawn DuffyRelfâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s aunt lived with her two daughters, Duffy-Relf and her husband marveled at the devastation â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and the survival rate.

Duffy-Relf credited central Oklahoma residentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;

Associated Press

WASHINGTON â&#x20AC;&#x201D; At the center of a political storm, an Internal Revenue Service supervisor whose agents targeted conservative groups swore Wednesday she did nothing wrong, broke no laws and never lied to Congress. Then she refused to answer lawmakersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; further questions, citing her Fifth Amendment right not to incriminate herself.

In one of the most electric moments since the IRS controversy erupted nearly two weeks ago, Lois Lerner unwaveringly â&#x20AC;&#x201D; but briefly â&#x20AC;&#x201D; defended herself before the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee. But she would say no more, citing legal advice in the face of a federal investigation.

Members of Congress have angrily complained that Lerner and other high-ranking IRS officials did not inform them that conservative groups were singled out, even though lawmakers repeatedly asked the IRS about it after hearing complaints from local tea party groups.

The Justice Department has launched a criminal probe of the murky events over the 2010 and 2012 election campaigns, saying it is looking into potential civil rights violations. Top IRS officials say Lerner didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t tell them for nearly a year after she learned that agents working under her had improperly singled out conservative groups for additional scrutiny when they applied for tax-exempt status.

Under unrelenting criticism â&#x20AC;&#x201D; most forcefully from Republicans but also from Democrats and people outside of politics â&#x20AC;&#x201D; administration officials from President Barack Obama on down have de-

nounced the targeting as inappropriate and inexcusable.

Lerner, who heads the IRS division that handles applications for tax-exempt status and first disclosed the targeting at a legal conference, has said the same. But she also spoke up for herself Wednesday, sitting sternfaced at the committee witness table. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I have not done anything wrong,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I have not broken any laws, I have not violated any IRS rules or regulations, and I have not provided false information to this or any other congressional committee.â&#x20AC;?

By one lawmakerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s count, Lerner was asked 14 times by members of Congress or their staffs without revealing that the groups had been targeted.

On Wednesday, lawmakers didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get a chance to ask Lerner again.

Nine minutes after she began speaking, Lerner was excused, though committee Chairman Darrell Issa, R-Calif., said he might recall her. He and other Republicans say they believe she forfeited her Fifth Amendment privilege not to testify by giving an opening statement in which she proclaimed her innocence, but several law professors were skeptical they could make that stick.

Issa later said he would consult with others â&#x20AC;&#x201D; including her lawyer and House attorneys â&#x20AC;&#x201D; before determining whether to summon her again, hopefully deciding by the time Congress returns from an upcoming recess early next month. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a fact witness with a tremendous amount that she could tell us,â&#x20AC;? Issa said.

By leaving early, Lerner missed out on a six-hour grilling that three other witnesses endured.

instincts and habits: They watch the weather reports, they look at the sky, they know what they can and canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t outrun. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We know where we live,â&#x20AC;? she said as she tried to salvage as much from the home as possible before her aunt returned from a vacation to Mexico.

Her husband, Paul Duffy-Relf, also noted the rise of social media and cellphone use since the last massive storm smashed the town more than a decade ago. He said people posted on Facebook and Twitter ahead of Mondayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s storm, telling others where the tornado was and when

to flee. And some never left their cellphones, staying on the line with loved ones as long as they could, and working to quickly reconnect with those who needed help afterward. â&#x20AC;&#x153;People are still looking for their wallets, but they have their cellphones,â&#x20AC;? he said.

Man questioned in Boston investigation shot to death

By Kyle Hightower Associated Press

ORLANDO, FLA. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; A Chechen immigrant was shot to death by authorities early Wednesday after he turned violent while being questioned about his ties to one of the Boston Marathon bombing suspects, officials said.

Ibragim Todashev, a 27-year-old mixed martial arts fighter, was gunned down at his Orlando townhouse during a meeting with an FBI agent and two Massachusetts state troopers, authorities said.

The agent was taken to a hospital with injuries that were not life-threatening.

Three law enforcement officials, speaking on condition of anonymity, said Todashev had lunged at the FBI agent with a knife.

However, two of those officials said later in the day it was no longer clear what happened. The third official had not received any new information.

The FBI gave no details on why it was interested in Todashev except to say that he was being questioned as part of the Bos-

ton investigation.

But some of his former roommates who were questioned as well said that Todashev knew one of the bombing suspects, Tamerlan Tsarnaev, from mixed martial arts fighting in Boston and that the FBI was asking about him.

Public records show Todashev lived in Watertown, Mass., just outside of Todashev Boston, last year.

Tamerlan Tsarnaev, an aspiring boxer, was killed in a shootout with police days after the April 15 bombings. His younger brother, Dzhokhar, survived and is charged with carrying out the attack that killed three people and wounded more than 260.

Investigators have been trying to establish the scope of the plot.

In addition, authorities in Massachusetts said they would investigate whether Tamerlan Tsarnaev had any connection

to an unsolved 2011 slaying in the Boston suburb of Waltham, where three men were found dead in an apartment, their throats slit and marijuana sprinkled over their bodies. One of the victims was a boxer and a friend of Tsarnaevâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s.

Todashev had lived on and off with other Chechens in the Orlando suburb of Kissimmee and had moved to Orlando more recently, friends said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a regular guy, nothing wrong,â&#x20AC;? Saeed Dunkaev said.

Police records, however, suggest he had a hot temper, with arrests in a road-rage incident and, more recently, in a fight over a parking space.

Muslin Chapkhanov, another former roommate, said Todashev knew the older Tsarnaev brother. Todashev â&#x20AC;&#x153;was living in Boston and I think he trained with him,â&#x20AC;? Chapkhanov said.

Former roommate Khusen Taramov said the FBI was asking questions about a conversation Todashev had with the elder bombing suspect a month before the Boston attack.

Human rights group protests drone killings, questions legality NEW YORK â&#x20AC;&#x201D; A top human rights organization on Wednesday criticized the Obama administrationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s increasing use of drone aircraft for the targeted killing of terrorism suspects overseas and questioned whether it was legal.

Amnesty International, in its global review of human rights issues, said the U.S. drone policy is shrouded in secrecy but the killings appear to amount to extrajudicial executions that violate international rights laws. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our view is that the

legal basis is quite unclear,â&#x20AC;?

Salil Shetty, the Londonbased groupâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s secretary general, said in a telephone interview with The Associated Press. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have issues with how the United States defines the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;theater of war,â&#x20AC;&#x2122; which is a very broad definition, which allows them a free rein to use drones and other weapons under a very wide set of circumstances.â&#x20AC;?

Shetty criticized the secrecy surrounding the drone strikes. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our researchers, when

talking to people in Pakistan, find that the people are living in constant fear in very remote areas. You really cannot figure out, at the end of the day, who has been injured or killed in a drone attack,â&#x20AC;? he said.

In its report, Amnesty said â&#x20AC;&#x153;available information, limited by secrecy, indicated that U.S. policy permitted extrajudicial executions in violation of international human rights law under the USAâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s theory of a â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;global warâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; against al-Qaida and associated groups.â&#x20AC;?

at Free State’s commencement ceremony.

For many of the students, the night truly marked a commencement, or beginning of something new. And at the same time, it marked the end of one meaningful phase in their lives.

Berkleigh Wright stood with two of her friends, who all plan to stay in Lawrence and go to Kansas University next year.

“I’ll miss my friends who aren’t going to KU with me, but these two are,” she said, pointing to classmates Kylie Dever and Chase Taylor.

Wright said she looked forward to studying journalism at KU. Dever planned to major in business with a minor in journalism, while Taylor said he hadn’t picked a major yet.

Delphinia Vaeono, who is originally from American Samoa, said she hoped eventually to become a pilot but will always miss the atmosphere at Free State.

“People are so friendly welcoming,” she said.

“My first year here was last year, and people were very welcoming, and I really love those moments.”

Meanwhile, Tom McMahon tried to absorb the moment as his only child, son Lee, was preparing to graduate.

“It’s amazing really,” he said. “I can’t believe we made it this far. Time really flies.”

Logan Hassig, one of the two senior speakers during the ceremony, joked that the whole class was lucky to be graduating at all, given that the Mayan

But she drew a lesson from that, admonishing her classmates to avoid the “guilt of taking precious moments for granted.”

After all the names were read, diplomas distributed and mortarboards tossed high in celebration, it was hard to walk across the stadium without walking into the background of somebody’s group photo shot.

Alia Buffalohead Zilliox, dressed in elaborate Native American headdress and regalia made by her father, had so many relatives with her she wasn’t quite sure where all of them had gone.

“It’s overwhelming, she said. “It hasn’t really set in yet that I just graduated, but it’s a great feeling.”

WATERING

DOWN Shutterstock Photo

TO PREVENT DRAINING WATER STORAGE AND HELP THE CITY OF LAWRENCE CONTINUE TO MEET CONSUMER DEMAND, the Utilities Department is asking residents to follow a schedule based on their house number when they water their yards. Those with even-numbered addresses are being asked to water on Monday, Wednesday and Friday, and those in odd-numbered houses are asked to water on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday.

City proposes alternating irrigation schedules Garden Calendar W ise watering saves time and money, grows healthier plants, and could help to reduce the need for future expensive infrastructure from your water provider.

Let me explain that last one: If everyone waters on the same day and time, the city will need more water towers and/or other storage to meet the demand. To prevent this and help the city of Lawrence continue to meet consumer demand, the Utilities Department is asking residents to follow a schedule based on their house number.

“On Monday, Wednesday, Friday, we see a huge spike in water usage,” explains Jeanette Klamm, management analyst with Lawrence Utilities. Much of that demand is likely due to irrigation of lawns and landscapes with programmable clocks set to run on those days of the week.

“We’re asking people with even-numbered houses to continue that schedule, but

for those with odd-numbered houses to switch to a Tuesday-Thursday-Saturday schedule. We’re not asking people to stop watering, just to spread it out over the week.”

To get the word out, the city is working to educate landscape and irrigation companies and has also put together a list of lawn irrigation tips for residents. The “tips” go back to the other benefits of wise watering — offering suggestions that will save time and money as well as providing the most benefit

to plants. Lawn irrigation tip cards are available at city offices, K-State Research and Extension- Douglas County, and on the city’s website, www.ci.lawrence.ks.us.

Darrell Huff, owner of the Lawrence company Turf Masters, says he is entirely in favor of the city’s recommendations, but he wishes more irrigation contractors would get involved. Huff has been in business for 38 years and has seen his share of poor irrigation management.

“We need to value and preserve water,” Huff says. “It is precious.”

He explains that his company makes it a point to ensure the systems they manage are in their best shape at the beginning of the season in addition to following the watering schedule suggested by the city. They set irrigation timers to water early in the morning, when both demand and evaporation loss are at their lowest.

Huff also follows the rule of deep and infrequent water-

ing that helps plants develop deeper, healthier root systems.

“Don’t water more than two or three times a week and soak it deep,” Huff says.

“Watering every day will just grow weeds.”

Although primarily marketed to residents with inground systems, the waterwise techniques will also benefit hose and sprinkler users.

For residents with inground systems, Huff suggests that homeowners visually inspect their systems about once a month over the season. By inspect he means getting up early and watching it run. If a sprinkler head is broken or spraying the wrong direction, have it fixed instead of paying for wasted water.

Klamm says the Lawrence area has been fortunate compared with other cities in Kansas faced with water restrictions, but even if it keeps raining it will take the area reservoirs some time to replenish.

“We’re just asking people to spread out their usage over the week and to avoid wasting it,” Klamm says. “If the water is running down the gutter, it’s probably too much.

To use water wisely, the Lawrence Utilities Department recommends:

Adjusting sprinklers to avoid overspray onto sidewalks, driveways, etc.

Repairing broken sprinkler heads immediately

Watering early in the morning — between 3 a.m. to 10 a.m. is recommended

KOVEL’S ANTIQUES

‘Sevres-style’ French porcelain sells for high prices

By Terry Kovel

What sells at antique shops and shows is determined by customers who might like traditional, modern, eclectic, country, Art Deco, Arts and Crafts, Victorian, Western or many other styles.

Preferences are influenced by age, location and what a collector remembers from Mom’s and Grandma’s houses.

French porcelain has been popular since the 18th century, and large urns still sell quickly.

While Sevres porcelain is the best-known, there were many other designers and factories.

Large urns were made A COURTING COUPLE is picby the end of the 18th centured on this Sevres-style tury to be used in large porcelain urn. It has gilt rooms with high ceilings metal mounts and a lid. or in gardens.

ers. Most were placed on the floor.

Those that narrowed at the top and had a cover and elaborate decorations were strictly ornamental.

They were put on a low table or a fireplace mantel to be admired.

All of them are called “urns,” and the decorated ones often are called “Sevres-style.” Of course, the original old urns made by the Sevres factory are the most desirable and most expensive. But some of the Sevres-style urns by others sell for high prices, too.

The quality of the work, the amount of gold trim and the beauty of the decoration set the price.

Prices range from a few hundred dollars to more than $10,000.

Most popular are pictures of masses of flowers or landscapes that include well-dressed people.

Q:

I bought a piece of property that happened to have a mobile home parked on it.

Once I bought the property, I owned the mobile home, too. The threepiece bedroom set in the mobile home includes a bed, dresser and chest of drawers. The mark inside a drawer on the dresser and chest is “Henredon Fine Furniture.” What can you tell me about the company and the set’s value?

A:

Henredon Furniture Co. was founded in Morgantown, N.C., in 1945, so the bedroom set was not made before that year. The Henredon brand name has been owned

by Furniture Brands Inc., based in St. Louis, since 2001. Henredon furniture is known to be of high quality, but your set would sell as “used furniture,” not as “antique furniture.” Try to sell it locally — it is expensive

Guns, speech A bill banning the use of state funds for gun control lobbying efforts sends an unsettling message about free speech and Kansas government.

V

arious loopholes may limit the impact of a bill that bans the use of state funds to promote or oppose gun-control measures, but the measure reflects a disregard for free speech that should concern Kansas residents.

The bill, which is on its way to the governor after winning approval Tuesday in the Kansas House, would prevent local governments and school districts from using state tax dollars to hire lobbyists to influence gun-control issues. The measure had the strong backing of the National Rifle Association, which uses considerable private money to promote its position on guns.

The bill passed this week addresses only gun control issues, but some legislators already have said they would like to pursue broader restrictions on the use of state funds for lobbying efforts. Earlier this year, legislators considered trying to prohibit the use of state dollars to express an opinion on legislation dealing with “any legal product.” However, they apparently realized that such a broad mandate could affect such things as the state health department promoting less tobacco use or state highway officials working to decrease drunken driving.

Nonetheless, at least some legislators believe the legislation that passed could prevent a state entity like the Kansas Board of Regents from providing advocacy or testimony on gun issues on state university campuses.

The measure raises unsettling questions about support for free speech in the state. Why would state legislators want to limit the range of viewpoints and information they receive on any measure they are considering?

The effort to restrict lobbying apparently grew out of some legislators’ displeasure at school districts hiring lobbyists to seek additional state funding.

Why shouldn’t public school districts be allowed to take their case for increased funding to the Legislature? Why shouldn’t state universities be allowed to hire lobbyists to speak on their behalf?

It would be easy enough for either K-12 schools or state universities to show that any money they spent on lobbying came from non-state sources, but why would legislators want to send such a speechstifling message to Kansas residents?

Passage of this measure may be an indication that lawmakers didn’t have enough to keep them busy while they waited on the governor and legislative leaders to hammer out a compromise on taxes and the state budget. It’s another reason for the Legislature to wrap up its essential business and call it a day.

Appointments negate NLRB actions WASHINGTON — Early in an opinion issued recently by a unanimous three-judge panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit, Judge A. Raymond Randolph says: “Although the parties have not raised it, one issue needs to be resolved before we turn to the merits of the case.” The issue he raised but could not resolve — that is up to the Supreme Court — illuminates the Obama administration’s George Wallace-like lawlessness. It also demonstrates the judiciary’s duty to restrain presidents who forget the oath they swear to “preserve, protect and defend the Constitution.”

The appeals court was deciding whether the National Labor Relations Board has the power to issue the rule requiring nearly 6 million private-sector employers to post notices informing workers of their right to join a union. Failure to post the notice would be, the NLRB says, an “unfair labor practice,” equivalent to interfering with, restraining or coercing employees.

The regulation of speech about unionization has been tightly restricted for many decades. In 1947, Congress amended the National Labor Relations Act with this: “The expressing of any views, argument, or opinion, or the dissemination thereof, whether in written, printed, graphic, or visual form, shall not constitute or be evidence of an unfair labor practice un-

Courts defeated Wallace’s lawlessness.

Presumably the Supreme Court will defeat Obama’s by telling the NLRB that the D.C. court was right about recess appointments.” der any of the provisions of this (act), if such expression contains no threat of reprisal or force or promise of benefit.” The Supreme Court had already held that employers have First Amendment freespeech rights to engage in non-coercive speech about unionization.

In the recent case, the NLRB argued that the required posting is its own speech, not the speech of any employer. The appeals court disagreed, and cited some “firmly established principles” of free-speech law, including “the right to decide not to disseminate” the speech of others. The Supreme Court has hitherto held that it is unconstitutional to force students to salute the flag. And

the court has said “freedom of speech prohibits the government from telling people what they must say.” Otherwise the First Amendment, “which guards the individual’s right to speak his own mind, left it open to public authorities to compel him to utter what is not in his mind.” Just because the NLRB wrote the required posting does not make it merely “government speech” rather than the coerced speech of employers who are compelled to disseminate it on their premises.

So the NLRB’s rule requiring the posting was illegitimate. But, then, everything the NLRB, as currently constituted, does is illegitimate because two of its members were put in their seats by an unconstitutional act by President Obama.

What Randolph referred to early in the opinion is this: The NLRB has five seats and can act with a quorum of three members. But it does not have three. Seventeen months after the NLRB issued its rule requiring employers to post the notice, the appeals court held that the Senate was not in recess when Obama made three supposed recess appointments to the board.

The Constitution says: “The president shall have power to fill up all vacancies that may happen during the recess of the Senate.”

The Constitution also says the Senate has the power to reject presidential appoint-

ments and to “determine the rules of its proceedings.” The Senate, however, said it was not in recess when Obama said it was.

So the D.C. court said those three appointees were not rightfully in office. The NLRB said it “respectfully” disagreed with the court, and went its merry way, without a quorum. Absent the perfunctory expression of respect, this was pretty much what George Wallace did 50 years ago this year when he stood in the door of Foster Auditorium at the University of Alabama to prevent two young blacks from registering as students.

Wallace said the district judge who had ordered the admission of the students was entitled to his opinion but that he, Wallace, had a different opinion, so there.

Which is essentially what the NLRB said when the D.C. court said the board lacked a quorum to act. The NLRB went on issuing edicts, legitimacy be damned.

Courts defeated Wallace’s lawlessness. Presumably the Supreme Court will defeat Obama’s by telling the NLRB that the D.C. court was right about recess appointments.

By such judicial vigilance against the excesses of elected officials, democracy is disciplined and progressivism’s agenda — unchecked executive power — is understood to be unconstitutional.

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for May 23, 1913: YEARS “The Kansas AGO River claimed the IN 1913 life of ‘Billie Bob’ Atkinson.

The little body was found this morning a mile and a half east of Eudora, and about twelve miles from Lawrence. The body was discovered about 9 o’clock this morning floating down stream. ... ‘Billie Bob’ must have lost his life close to the boat landing at the foot of Ohio street. The establishment of the fact that the child was drowned adds to the belief that he was playing in a boat; he must have lost his balance and fallen in.”

Why gay role models matter Mark Carson was shot in the face because he’s gay.

His alleged killer, 33-year old Elliot Morales, is said to have confronted Carson, 32, and a companion, in New York’s Greenwich Village last Friday night, yelling antigay slurs. When Carson walked away, Morales reportedly followed and shot him. Morales was arrested by police after a foot chase.

In pondering this tragedy, it is worthwhile to consider a couple things: where it happened, and when.

The “where” is just a few blocks from the Stonewall Inn, a gay bar where a 1969 police raid (“act of ongoing police harassment,” would probably be the more accurate description) led to a violent uprising. It is regarded as the birthplace of the modern gay rights movement.

The “when” is now, in the post-Jason Collins era.

He is, you will recall, the 34-year-old NBA journeyman who made history a few weeks ago when he became the first active player in one of the big four professional sports to come out as gay.

While most of us were applauding, a few of us affected to treat the event with a collective shrug, sought to minimize it by pretending it was unimportant.

“Who cares?” wrote conservative blogger Crystal

Leonard Pitts Jr.

“

lpitts@miamiherald.com

Sometimes, when you step out on the ice, it helps to know someone else has already tested it. If you are going to demand the right to be, if you are going to accept the risk that doing so entails, it’s good to know that at least you’re not alone.”

Wright.

“It means less than nothing to me,” said Mike Francesca, a New York radio host.

“I do not care about Mr. Collins’ sexuality,” wrote columnist Armstrong Williams.

Methinks they doth protest too much.

Why does this matter?

Yours truly attempted to answer that question in this space when Collins came out.

Sadly, Mark Carson provides a more viscerally convincing

answer in the fact and manner of his dying.

Here’s the thing: As gay rights have become more approved and inevitable, it becomes less socially acceptable to oppose them as loudly and brazenly as some of us once did. As recently as 2001, for example, Williams was arguing that gay couples were unfit to adopt.

Such arguments largely lost, he and others like him turn now to this new pose of ostentatious indifference that says in effect, “Fine.”

Be gay if you must, but why do you feel you have to announce your sexuality to the world?

It is an argument with the unfortunate advantage of seeming to make sense, even as it paints gay people as overly provocative and needlessly demonstrative.

Don’t put your sexual orientation in my face, it says, and I won’t put mine in yours.

Keep your sex life private.

Don’t ask, don’t tell.

But the flaw in the argument is obvious: straight people announce their sexuality all day everyday. It happens when they canoodle in the park, walk hand in hand through the mall, place loved ones’ pictures on the desk.

These are small joys and we don’t think of them as announcements of sexuality, but they are.

If you are gay, you don’t do such things. Or, you do them strategically, thoughtfully, picking and choosing where and when it is safe to canoodle, hold hands, set out the pictures … be. Because you realize the reaction may not just be derision, but violence.

Even death.

So the decision to seize these small joys demands courage. This is what is provided when a Jason Collins announces himself. Or when an Ellen DeGeneres, a Zachary Quinto, a Neil Patrick Harris, a Jenna Wolf, an Anderson Cooper, a Ricky Martin or a Wanda Sykes does the same.

Sometimes, when you step out on the ice, it helps to know someone else has already tested it. If you are going to demand the right to be, if you are going to accept the risk that doing so entails, it’s good to know that at least you’re not alone.

Why does this matter?, they ask.

Well, in 2013, in America’s biggest city, within steps of a gay rights landmark, it seems you can still be shot in the face for no other reason than that you are gay.

That’s why.

A team that couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t buy a touchdown reception from a wide receiver last season just picked up a guy who has caught a whole bunch off them.

KU officials announced Wednesday night that Miami (Ohio) senior Nick Harwell will transfer to KU for the 2013-14 school year.

KU coach Charlie Weis learned that the news was official just before speaking to a group of KU fans at Harwell the Ramada Inn Downtown Convention Center in Topeka.

A native of Missouri City, Texas, Harwell, 6-foot-1, 193 pounds, missed three games in 2012 with a knee injury, but still managed to rank 13th in the NCAA in receptions per game (7.6) and 14th in the NCAA in receiving yards per game (96.7). He finished his junior season leading the Mid-American Conference with 68 receptions for 870 yards and eight touchdowns.

In 2011, as a sophomore, Harwell was the NCAAâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s second-leading receiver with a 129.6 receiving-yardsper-game average. In all, he hauled in 97 receptions for 1,425 yards and nine touchdowns that season and earned first-team All-MAC honors, honorable mention All-America honors from Sports Illustrated and was named to the Biletnikofff Award Watch List.

Harwell was recruited to Miami by Mike Haywood, who was a member of Weisâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; staff at Notre Dame. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is the same offense and terminology we used my freshman year,â&#x20AC;? Harwell told JayhawkSlant.comâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Jon Kirby of KUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s system. â&#x20AC;&#x153;That will help.â&#x20AC;?

Harwell, who is ranked as the 18th-best wide receiver prospect for the NFL Draft class of 2014 by NFLDraftScout.com, comes to KU on the heels of a recent off-thefield issue, but sources have indicated that he is facing no legal trouble. In early April, Harwell was arrested and charged with criminal damaging, theft and unauthorized use of a vehicle/vehicle trespass after an early-morning incident at an off-campus apartment. Harwell was suspended from all footballrelated activities by Miami coach Don Treadwell.

Those close to the KU program believe Harwell may be the missing piece for a Jayhawk passing game that struggled in 2012.

It is unclear whether Harwell, who is close to graduating thanks to a year of prep school in 2009, will be eligible for the upcoming

Durant makes $1 million tornado pledge MINNEAPOLIS (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Oklahoma City isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t just a place where Thunder star Kevin Durant lives these days. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s home.

So as he watched the horrifying images Monday as a tornado ripped through suburban Moore, the emotions came bubbling to the surface and so did the need to help. Durant pledged $1 million for tornado relief through his foundation,

eager to help a devastated area begin to rebuild. â&#x20AC;&#x153;As the day went on and I saw the footage and the casualties and the houses being blown away, it was tough to see,â&#x20AC;? said Durant, who was in Minneapolis to watch longtime friend Monica Wright play a preseason game for the Minnesota Lynx. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I call Oklahoma City my home. I go through Moore all the time. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s unfortu-

Durant has been in Oklahoma City for five years now, ever since the Seattle SuperSonics moved there in 2008. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s become a fixture in the community, in addition to establishing himself as one of the very best players in the NBA. He said he was hoping to return home

Wednesday to try and lift the spirits of an area reeling from the deaths of some two dozen people, including children. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Just to get to the hospital, see some kids,â&#x20AC;? Durant said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Something. Just something to give some hope. Playing for the Thunder, we mean so much to the state. So many people support us and I just want to go back and support those people.â&#x20AC;?

Mike Krzyzewski has decided to remain coach of the U.S. menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Olympic basketball team.

Krzyzewski will try to lead the Americans to a third straight gold medal, a person with knowledge of the decision said Wednesday. Originally expected to step down, Krzyzewski will hold a news conference to confirm his return today Krzyzewski at Duke, the person told The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because no official announcement has been made.

The Hall of Fame coach has led the Americans since 2005, winning gold at the 2008 and 2012 Olympics, and the 2010 world basketball championship.

His return was first reported by Sports Illustrated. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s great,â&#x20AC;? said twotime gold medalist LeBron James, when told of the news Wednesday night before the Miami Heat faced Indiana. â&#x20AC;&#x153;What he means to USA Basketball is beyond just what we do on the court. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what we stand for as Americans and being proud of the red, white and blue every time we step off the bus or practice or talk to the media or whatever the case may be. I think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s great.â&#x20AC;?

Krzyzewski repeatedly said he planned to end his international coaching career following the Americansâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; victory last summer in London.

Yet USA Basketball chairman Jerry Colangelo preferred to hold off any discussion until after Coach K finished his season with the Blue Devils, and he got the answer he wanted.

The 66-year-old Krzyzewski will lead the Americans next summer at the renamed World Cup of Basketball in Spain, where a victory would qualify them for the 2016 Summer Games in Brazil. They are 62-1 over the last seven years.

Krzyzewskiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s return could help land commitments from some of the top NBA stars who have enjoyed playing in the program he and Colangelo revamped in 2005. James, Kobe Bryant, Chris Paul and Carmelo Anthony are among the AllStars who have won multiple gold medals under Krzyzewski. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got the utmost respect and trust in Coach K,â&#x20AC;? James said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;And whatever he decision was going to be, I think we all would support that.â&#x20AC;?

James has said he would like to be there in 2016 as well. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It would be great,â&#x20AC;? James said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;First, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got to make sure I stay healthy. If Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m fortunate enough to be healthy I would love to represent my country again, but thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a long time from now. So weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll see.â&#x20AC;?

The U.S. team had been led by an NBA coach from the time NBA players were first used in the 1992 Olympics through the 2004 Games, when the Americans lost three times and finished third.

They managed only another bronze in their first tournament under Krzyzewski, the 2006 world championship, but havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t lost a game since while restoring the U.S. as the top team in the world.

Krzyzewski had said he expected the Americans to name a successor this summer.

SAN FRANCISCOâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S MICHAEL CRABTREE, LEFT, reaches for a pass as heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s grabbed by Houstonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Brice McCain during an August 2012 preseason game in Houston. Crabtree underwent surgery Wednesday for a torn Achilles tendon.

Niners receiver Crabtree tears Achilles tendon SANTA CLARA, CALIF. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The San Francisco 49ers suddenly have a huge void in their receiving corps as they chase another Super Bowl berth: Michael Crabtree is sidelined after surgery on his right Achilles tendon.

San Franciscoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s leading wide receiver underwent surgery Wednesday, though the team is optimistic he will return at some point in 2013.

Crabtree was operated on at Stanford by Dr. Tim McAdams one day after suffering the injury during 7-on-7 drills in an organized team activity. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Michael Crabtree underwent surgery to repair his Achilles tendon that he tore yesterday,â&#x20AC;? coach Jim Harbaugh said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Surgery was successful and we do not anticipate it will be season-ending for Michael. It was completely torn, and completely repaired.â&#x20AC;?

Harbaugh would not speculate when Crabtree might return to play.

The 25-year-old Crabtree, the teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 10th overall pick in the 2009 draft out of Texas Tech, had career highs last season with 85 receptions for 1,105 yards and nine touchdowns for the NFC champion Niners, who lost, 34-31, to the Baltimore Ravens in the Super Bowl.

Harbaugh said Crabtree went in motion, planted to begin a route and â&#x20AC;&#x153;felt like somebody kicked him in the Achilles, which sometimes people say that feels like.â&#x20AC;? Having the operation right away was considered the best option so Crabtree has the chance to return this year â&#x20AC;&#x201D; unlike with running back Kendall Hunter last season, who had the same injury but the decision was made to wait some time before surgery.

PRO FOOTBALL

Linebacker Urlacher retiring CHICAGO â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Linebacker Brian Urlacher is calling it a career after 13 seasons with the Chicago Bears.

The eight-time Pro Bowl player announced his retirement on his Twitter account Wednesday.

In a statement, he said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;After spending a lot of time this spring thinking about my NFL future, I have made a decision to retire.â&#x20AC;?

Urlacher was the face of the Bearsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; franchise and leaves as one of the gameâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s great linebackers. In March, he and the Bears were unable to reach a contract agreement and he became a free agent.

He started 180 games from 2000 through 2012, and recorded a team-record 1,779 tackles.

He has 41 1/2 sacks, 22 interceptions, 16 fumble recoveries and 11 forced fumbles.

Chiefs sign two safeties KANSAS CITY, MO. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The Kansas City Chiefs have signed free-agent safeties Quintin Demps and Malcolm Bronson and released safety Justin Glenn and cornerback James Rogers.

The Chiefs announced the moves before the start of Wednesdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s voluntary workout.

Demps played for new Chiefs coach Andy Reid while both were in Philadelphia from 200809, and spent the past three seasons with the Texans. The former fourth-round draft pick has 61 tackles, three interceptions and one fumble recovery in 48 career games.

Bronson went undrafted out of McNeese State, where he made 230 tackles in 40 career games.

Glenn was trying to make the Chiefs after playing in 40 games over four seasons for the University of Washington. Rogers played in 46 games over four seasons at Michigan.

GOLF

Garcia apologizes to Woods VIRGINIA WATER, ENGLAND â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Sergio Garcia apologized to Tiger Woods on Wednesday for saying he would have â&#x20AC;&#x153;fried chickenâ&#x20AC;? at dinner with his rival, a comment that Woods described as hurtful and inappropriate. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I want to send an unreserved apology. I did not want to offend anyone,â&#x20AC;? Garcia said Wednesday. â&#x20AC;&#x153;My answer was totally stupid and out of place.â&#x20AC;?

Garcia was at a European Tour awards dinner Tuesday night when he was jokingly asked if he would have Woods over for dinner during the U.S. Open. The two players had been verbally sparring since The Players Championship nearly two weeks ago. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll have him round every night,â&#x20AC;? Garcia replied. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We will serve fried chicken.â&#x20AC;?

The remark took the golfersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; differences into ugly territory, reminiscent of when Fuzzy Zoeller made a similar comment about Woods after he won the 1997 Masters, becoming the first player of black heritage to win a major. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The comment that was made wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t silly. It was wrong, hurtful and clearly inappropriate,â&#x20AC;?

Woods said in a series of tweets. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m confident that there is real regret the remark was made.

The Players ended nearly two weeks ago and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s long past time to move and talk about golf.â&#x20AC;?

Fowler plans donation FORT WORTH, TEXAS â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Rickie Fowler is encouraging fans attending the Colonial to contribute to relief efforts after the deadly tornado this week in Oklahoma.

And Fowler is going to do his part for the state where he spent two years playing college golf at Oklahoma State. Fowler said Wednesday he will match the first $100,000 given by Colonial fans with a donation of his own.

While he doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know anybody personally in Moore, Okla., Fowler says he has friends who know people around there, and that it was hard to watch and â&#x20AC;&#x153;pretty tragic to see.â&#x20AC;?

NBA PLAYOFFS

James powers Heat past Pacers in OT MIAMI (AP) — LeBron James made a layup as time expired in overtime, and the Miami Heat found a way to beat the Indiana Pacers, 103-102, in a wild Game 1 of the Eastern Conference finals Wednesday night.

James finished with 30 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists for the Heat — his ninth postseason tripledouble, and barely anyone noticed. All that mattered was the last shot, which simply saved the Heat.

Paul George made three free throws with 2.2 seconds left in the overtime, which he forced with a miracle three-pointer, to give the Pacers the lead.

But James — with Indiana shot-blocking center Roy Hibbert curiously on the bench — just drove down the left side of the lane,

How former Jayhawk fared Mario Chalmers, Miami Min: 21. Pts: 10. Reb: 1. Ast: 2.

scored with ease and the Heat escaped.

Game 2 is Friday night in Miami.

Officials reviewed James’ play at the end, though it was clear he beat the clock, and the Pacers walked slowly toward their locker room, lamenting one that got away — by no fault of George’s.

George was fouled by Dwyane Wade on the play where the Pacers had to think they had stolen the series opener.

George saved the Pacers in regulation with a 32-footer with 0.7 seconds

left in regulation that tied the game, and tried a shot from a similar distance as time was expiring in the extra session.

Referee Jason Phillips said Wade hit George, and the Pacers’ star made all three free throws for the 16th lead change of the night. The final lead change came moments later, and Miami survived a game that had 18 ties and neither team ever leading by more than seven points.

Wade scored 19 points, Chris Bosh had 17 and Chris Andersen had 16 on 7 for 7 shooting for Miami.

George scored 27 for the Pacers, who got 26 from David West, 19 from Hibbert. The Pacers have won only two series in franchise history after dropping a Game 1.

The final few seconds

Astros knock down Royals again, 3-1

Pat Sullivan/AP Photo

KANSAS CITY ROYALSâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; CHRIS GETZ, BOTTOM, TRIES TO SIT UP as Houston Astrosâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Jose Altuve (27) signals the out in the eighth inning, Wednesday in Houston. Getz was tagged out by shortstop Marwin Gonzalez after getting caught between the bases.

The Astros won, 3-1.

HOUSTON (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; J.D. Martinez hit a two-run homer off James Shields, Jordan Lyles pitched six effective innings and the Houston Astros beat the Kansas City Royals 3-1 on Wednesday night.

Lyles (2-1) allowed one run and six hits in his 50th career game. Travis Blackley and Hector Ambriz each got three outs before Jose Veras pitched a perfect ninth for his eighth save one night after the bullpen struggled in a 7-3 loss.

Houston took two of three from Kansas City for its fourth series win this season.

Shields (2-5) struck out seven in seven innings while yielding two runs and seven hits. He has gone seven or more innings in each of his last six starts, but hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t won since April 30 due in part to his offense providing him with just five runs combined in his last four starts.

The right-hander, who was acquired in an offseason trade with Tampa Bay, retired his first two

batters before running into trouble. Jason Castro singled before Martinez drove a 2-2 pitch into the seats in right for his fourth homer.

Castro tacked on an RBI single in the eighth inning against Kelvin Herrera.

Houstonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Jimmy Paredes got his first start of the season at third base in place of Matt Dominguez, who sat out with tightness in his left quadriceps.

Paredes has struggled in the outfield in the last few games, causing two collisions, but was solid at third.

Alcides Escobar smoked a grounder to Paredes with one out in the eighth, and he made a perfect throw to first to get him out.

Kansas City got its only run in the third when Jeff Francoeur hit a leadoff triple to the hill in center and George Kottaras followed with an RBI double. Alex Gordon walked with two down, but Lyles struck out Billy Butler to end the inning.

Lyles also got Gordon to bounce out with two runners on to end the fifth.

After their two-run first inning, the Astros had trouble stringing together hits against Shields. Martinez singled to start the fourth, but was thrown out trying to stretch it into a double. Chris Carter followed with a single but Shields retired the next two batters to end the inning.

Gordon singled in the first inning to extend his hitting streak to 10 games.

Notes: Houston is off today. ... The Royals return home to open a four-game series with the Angels. ... Kansas City C Salvador Perez was out of the lineup for the second straight game after bruising his right hip after crashing into the railing chasing a foul ball on Monday. He said he has a gigantic bruise on his hip, but is OK and that he could have played on Tuesday. He is day to day. ... Dominguez is expected to be back in the lineup on Friday.

KANSAS BASKETBALL NOTEBOOK

McLemoreâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s draft predictions vary

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a strong possibility Kansas Universityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Ben McLemore will be coached by a Jayhawk in the NBA next season.

DraftExpress.comâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s latest 2013 Mock Draft has Jacque Vaughnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Orlando Magic selecting the 6-foot-5 McLemore with the No. 2 overall pick in June 27 draft, following Clevelandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s projected selection of Kentuckyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Nerlens Noel at No. 1. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I just think McLemore has real superstar quality,â&#x20AC;?

Sports Illustratedâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Chris Mannix told the Orlando Sentinel. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a more athletic version of Ray Allen. He certainly finishes better than Ray. After a couple of years, he could really blossom into one of those franchise 2-guards.â&#x20AC;?

Mannix believes McLemore is just too talented to pass up, even though Orlando needs a point guard and Michi-

â&#x20AC;&#x153;

I just think McLemore has real superstar quality. I think heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a more athletic version of Ray Allen.

He certainly finishes better than Ray. After a couple of years, he could really blossom into one of those franchise 2-guards.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Sports Illustrated writer Chris Mannix to the Orlando Sentinel ganâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Trey Burke is available. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Magic have needs everywhere. They have a lot of good, young talent, no question about it, but thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not anybody on that roster where you say, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not going to take this specific position.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; I think you have to take the best player on the board,â&#x20AC;? Mannix told the Sentinel.

Orlandoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s starting shooting guard currently

is capable veteran Arron Afflalo. Cleveland, which is not expected to take McLemore after selecting 6-4 shooting guard Dion Waiters a year ago, could trade the top pick considering Noel is not expected to be back from a torn ACL until Christmastime. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Noel is just the sort of defensive presence they (Cavaliers) need to upgrade the worst defensive team â&#x20AC;&#x201D; in terms of field goal percentage â&#x20AC;&#x201D; in the league,â&#x20AC;? Mannix told the Sentinel.

NBAdraft.net, by the way, still has McLemore listed as the top pick in the draft, followed by Noel to Orlando, Otto Porter to Washington and Victor Oladipo to Charlotte.

ESPN.comâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Chad Ford has Noel No. 1, followed

by Burke, Porter and McLemore all the way to No. 4 to Charlotte. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Bobcats are the big losers, again, in the draft lottery. But if they land McLemore, they might get the player with the best upside in the draft,â&#x20AC;? Ford

wrote at ESPN.com. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The team desperately needs outside shooting, and McLemore might have the best stroke of anyone in the draft.â&#x20AC;?

McLemore on Wednesday spoke with ESPN. comâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Henry Abbott about the draft: â&#x20AC;&#x153;A lot of people have different opinions.

A lot of people say he (Burke) should be No. 1 and I should be No. 1 and Nerlens and so on. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got to work to get that position. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be disappointed,â&#x20AC;? McLemore added of a scenario in which he would not be No. 1. â&#x20AC;&#x153;As long as I get drafted and have the opportunity to take care of my family ... thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the main thing to me, taking care of my family.â&#x20AC;?

Both ESPNâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Ford and DraftExpress.com say KUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Jeff Withey will be taken No. 22 overall by Brooklyn. NBAdraft.net currently has Withey as a second-round pick, No. 35 overall to Philadelphia.

Add another date Although Wednesdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Topeka appearance was scheduled to be the end of his preview party tour, Weis said he was in the process of trying to add an appearance in late June in Kansas City, Mo. Nothing has been finalized yet, but Weis is targeting June 27 at The Dubliner in the Power and Light District as his ideal date and location.

FORMER MIAMI (OHIO) RECEIVER NICK HARWELL (8) CATCHES an 11-yard touchdown pass against Western Michigan cornerback Lewis Toler (24) in this file photo from Nov. 16, 2011, in Oxford, Ohio.

Weis said of Self. â&#x20AC;&#x153;And he wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t feeling real good about his chances. Then I told him about when Manti (Teo) committed to me at Notre Dame. Everybody thought he was going to USC and then he announced and

the place went berserk. I said, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;You donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know with a kid like this. We have no idea where heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s really going.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; â&#x20AC;&#x153;Right after he committed, I called (Self) and, of course, he didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t answer.

But I think you heard a â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Yeah, baby!â&#x20AC;&#x2122; (on Selfâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s voicemail) but it was about 20 octaves up from right there.â&#x20AC;?

FREE STATE

the program that last advanced to state in 2007, hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t necessarily tried to copy the blueprint of past state champs, but getting to this level has been a process. As Rothwell alluded to, the Firebirds seem to have ingredients that could help them win three games in two days â&#x20AC;&#x201D; which would give FSHS its first state softball title â&#x20AC;&#x201D; even if that means going through Olathe East (21-1) and Topeka Washburn Rural (22-0) in the semifinals and finals Friday. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not always the best team that wins,â&#x20AC;? Ice said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;but the team that plays the best.â&#x20AC;?

Free Stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s veteran senior leaders, catcher Courtney Parker and shortstop Aâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Liyah Rogers, said those outside of the FSHS program might hold No. 1 seed Rural and No. 2 O-East in higher regard, but teams have learned to respect No. 3 Free State this season. And even though state will be an unfamiliar experience for the Firebirds, Rogers said they remain a loose, confident group. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Everybody just gets pumped about it,â&#x20AC;? the leadoff hitter said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;because weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve never been here before.â&#x20AC;?

Added Parker: â&#x20AC;&#x153;We donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have anything to lose in this tournament at all. We get to be the relaxed team.â&#x20AC;?

Ice has only seen the Firebirds dugout on edge once this season, and that was during a 7-1 road loss to O-East, which essentially decided the league championship. He doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t anticipate similar nerves for the group at state, and credited seniors Parker, Rogers and twin reserves Ariana and Summer Frantz with cultivating an easygoing environment. If the Firebirdsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; opponents are anxious, Ice expects his

BASEBALL Rangers avoid sweep MAJOR-LEAGUE ROUNDUP

Nationals 2, Giants 1, 10 innings SAN FRANCISCO — Ian Desmond singled in Bryce Harper in the 10th inning, and Washington beat San Francisco to avoid a threegame series sweep.

American League Rangers 3, Athletics 1 ARLINGTON, TEXAS — David Murphy and Adrian Beltre homered in a threerun first inning, Ross Wolf was strong in his first major-league start, and Texas avoided a sweep against Oakland on Wednesday.

National League Reds 7, Mets 4 NEW YORK — Brandon Phillips bounced a double over first base to snap a ninth-inning tie, and Cincinnati completed a threegame sweep of struggling New York.

Joey Votto homered and Zack Cozart had a career-high four hits, all off Matt Harvey, in a game that featured a little bit of everything — including a testy exchange in the dugout between Cincinnati starter Mat Latos and teammate Jay Bruce.

Dear Annie: I have three wonderful young adult children. The oldest two girls both recently graduated from college and are living at home, working and saving money.

The girls were not particularly interested in dating until recently. Our oldest met a guy at work and has fallen hard. She’s always been family oriented, but for the past three months, all she wants to do is be with this guy 24/7.

She spends most nights at his place, and we don’t see her at all on the weekends.

This behavior does not sit well with me. I don’t think it’s a good idea to spend the night with your boyfriend so early in the relationship. I also don’t like that she disregards her family, especially her younger sister, with whom she had a close relationship. My position is, if she’s still living at home, she should come home to sleep. She can fool around with this guy the rest of the

day.

I understand I may have some old-fashioned values, but allowing my daughter to live with her boyfriend on a part-time basis shows no respect for my position and is hard for me to swallow. I normally have a great relationship with her, but I haven’t seen or spoken to her in more than two weeks.

I’m concerned that if I ask her to have dinner with us more often and spend some time with family on the weekends, she will resent it and it will make matters worse. Am I out of

Workplace survival show needs to be fired A week after the charming sendoff for “The Office,” a new series arrives to demonstrate how much we’ll miss Dunder Mifflin. “Does Someone Have to Go?” (8 p.m., Fox) also points reality television cameras at the workplace. But the similarity ends there.

As on “Undercover Boss,” managers and owners of a business will get to listen to their employees. But instead of mingling with them and getting to know their strengths and weaknesses, “Go” exposes employees “Big Brother”-style, accompanied by the frantic, tension-producing music from “The Apprentice.”

But unlike that game show, this takes place in a real office, where real employees are encouraged to complain about each other and even scheme to get one of their colleagues fired.

This thoroughly charmless outing leaves a sour taste similar to that of the CBS series “The Job.” But at least on that shortlived show, folks were vying for a new position and an entry to a new career. Here, we see the savage Darwinian struggle of “Survivor” applied to a real workplace in a bad economy. Thoroughly joyless and frequently cruel, “Go” needs to be fired from the Fox schedule.

At least Fox promoted its summer replacement series. The same can’t be said of “Save Me” (7 p.m., NBC). This summer series slips into the schedule like a thief in the night placed in the witness protection program.

With nothing more than a oneminute clip to go on, it would be unfair to even pretend to review this show, starring Anne Heche as a party girl who has a near-death experience (choking on a sandwich) and returns, convinced that she can talk to God. But I already think I’ve written more than NBC expected. Or desired. A second episode (7:30 p.m.) follows.

Tonight’s other highlights

Contestants prepare an international menu on “Hell’s Kitchen” (7 p.m., Fox).

A naive newcomer (Harold Lloyd) falls into a series of dangerous big-city dilemmas in the 1923 slapstick classic “Safety Last” (7 p.m., TCM).

A surgeon needs saving on “Person of Interest” (8 p.m., CBS).

line? — Concerned Dad Dear Dad: Be careful, Dad. Your daughter is now a grown woman. The lack of prior dating could be one reason why she is so over the moon for the new boyfriend. You apparently don’t object to her having sex, the too-soon timing of which is not up to you and at this point is moot anyway. You simply miss the girl she used to be.

It’s OK for you to say you don’t wish to subsidize her living with the boyfriend, but we hope you will do so in a loving way, letting her know you miss her at dinnertime. But we also recommend you invite the boyfriend to join you for meals and weekend activities. This will not only encourage your daughter’s participation, but it will allow you to get to know the man who may become your son-in-law.

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS

For Thursday, May 23: This year your interactions with loved ones come to the forefront.

You are a bundle of energy and fun, but you’ll discover the need to slow down when it’s necessary. If you are single, you will attract someone who is on the same page as you. If you are attached, the two of you often connect when you are less intense.

The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult Aries (March 21-April 19) If you feel sluggish, do not be surprised. Your dream life last night might have been unusually active. Tonight: Relax.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) You might have a set of errands and projects to complete, but a loved one keeps requesting your attention. Decide to make an adjustment, rather than get upset.

Tonight: Come to a decision.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) Make your move. You know what you want to do — now go for it. Tonight: Squeeze in some exercise, even if it’s just walking the dog!

Cancer (June 21-July 22) Your creativity leads you in a new direction and opens up a lot of doors. If this energy is funneling into your work, you might want to test out your ideas. Tonight: Reach out to friends, and start the weekend early.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) You’ll want to understand what is happening with you before you respond to others. If you feel out of sync, you might want to take part of the day off or work from home. Tonight: Stay close to home.

any time with them. Sis is in her early 40s and acts as if she’s 16. She is only concerned with herself and what others can do for her.

She and her husband are always going out and foisting their children on everyone else. When we won’t watch her kids, she gets angry and then tells the kids we don’t love them. Unfortunately, Sis lives in the same town as my parents. I’d like to visit my folks, but I prefer to avoid my sister. Is that wrong? — Helpless Sibling Dear Sibling: We know it will be difficult, but we urge you to remain civil to your sister for the sake of her children. They need you. Since you don’t live nearby, her selfishness should be manageable in small doses on rare occasion. Please try.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You might want to understand what is motivating a loved one, especially if a situation makes no sense. Listen to feedback from someone you care about. Tonight: Catch up on a neighbor’s news.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) You appear to be confident, but you actually could be concerned about a financial matter right now.

Get advice from several people who think differently from you. Tonight: Treat a friend to dinner.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You finally will feel ready to make a decision or have an important talk. Know that you might need to repeat your words in a way that others will understand. Tonight: Out on the town.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Take a break from all the activity. You will be happiest when you’re working by yourself in handling an important issue. Tonight: Play it low-key.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Rethink a decision involving a long-term goal. A meeting gives you a greater grasp on what is happening. Tonight: Go for it.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Your ability to move past a problem helps you let go of a difficult situation. A higher-up will give you approval to move in a certain direction, and you’ll feel empowered. Tonight: Up late.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) Your ability to empathize with others emerges. You might be able to help someone who can’t see the big picture. Tonight: Try some vegan cuisine.
