Bills aim to curb opioid abuse

Southwest Missouri long known for opposing unions

Counselor: ‘Five years of working on this, coming on six, it’s frustrating.’ BY CRYSTAL THOMAS cthomas@joplinglobe.com

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. — After hearing two hours of testimony about bills that would attempt to curb Missouri’s opioid epidemic, Steve Russ got up to speak. Russ, of Nevada, had listened to physicians, hospital associations, law enforcement ofﬁcers and mothers of overdose victims who all said the same thing: Missouri needs a prescription drug monitoring program so physicians and pharmacists can track drug use by their patients and customers. The chorus of voices only grows louder every year as Missouri remains the only state in the nation that does not have such a database. “I appreciate you guys working on this, but ﬁve years of working on this, coming on six, it’s frustrating to me,” Russ told members of the Missouri Senate Health and Pensions Committee on Wednesday, as well as other witnesses gathered to testify, garnering murmurs of agreement from the large crowd. Russ then told those in the room that he is a former drug addict — now 16 years clean — and that he runs a recovery program for addicts through First Baptist Church in Nevada. He said he has seen the damage drug addiction has done to his own family and to the families of other addicts. “Those of us who deal day to day on the front lines of addiction, we see that this (a PDMP) is not going to

Joplin has had key role BY KOBY LEVIN klevin@joplinglobe.com

century ago, Joplin miners were both reviled and recruited throughout much of the American West because of their reputation as strikebreakers. Mine owners around the country enlisted them because of their willingness to cross picket lines. Today, it’s Joplin money leading the latest charge against organized labor, this time in JefDavid ferson City. Humphreys A wave of political spending, led in part by Joplin businessman David Humphreys, has helped advance passage this year of what is known as “right to work,” a hotly contested law that has come to symbolize

an ebb point in unions’ political power in the state after decades of declining membership. “The reality is you have a handful of large-money donors over the last several years that have contributed large sums of money to people in the right positions to inﬂuence them on this policy and move it forward,” said state Sen. Ryan Silvey, a Re-

publican from Kansas City whose district includes a unionized automotive plant. “David Humphreys is the ﬁrst name on the list. He has made (right to work) a single-issue campaign for him for a long time. He’s contributed large sums of money to people who agree with him and he has contributed large sums of money against people who don’t.”

Missouri lawmakers passed a right-to-work law in the spring of 2015, but it was vetoed by Missouri Gov. Jay Nixon. During the veto session that September, about 20 Republicans crossed the aisle to vote with Democrats to sustain Nixon’s veto. That led to a campaign to unseat Republicans and

Jasper’s Juicery another Jason Miller project A new juice bar, Jasper’s Juicery, is coming to the storefront that formerly housed Palace Pizza at 122 S. Main St. This is another Jason Miller project, which should make it interesting. Miller already operates two of Joplin’s best homegrown restaurants — Instant Karma in downtown Joplin and the Eagle Drive-In at 43rd and Main streets. Jasper’s Juicery will feature a variety of fresh juices, including vegetable juices. You also will be able to get fruit smoothies, panini sandwiches and crepes. Hours will be from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. Miller is drawing inspiration for the venture from a recent trip to New York City where juice bars are becoming increasingly common. “There was a juice place on every corner. Seeing that happen there is a pretty good sign of what is going to happen here in Joplin in the future,’’ he said. Miller has become a fan of juicebased diets. He has used his kitchen to create some juices that are not only good for you but taste good, too. That’s the trick apparently with juices — making the healthy ones with kale and other such ingredients taste good. He said his juice creations helped him lose 25 pounds in a short period of time but in a healthy way. Miller is planning for an opening in March. Details to come.

WHAT’S IN THE CARDS When things are in transition as

they are now, it leaves me wondering what the future might hold. So I decided to get a handle on things by scheduling a session with a psychic reader at a storefront on the southwest corner of WALLY 32nd Street and Range Line Road. I went speKENNEDY cifically to get a sense of how the repeal of the Affordable Care Columnist Act will play out and how that might affect me because I have been enrolled in the program since May of last year. It enabled me to retire early. What I wanted to hear and what the Tarot cards told me were two entirely different things. Let me put it this way: When you venture off the beaten path, expect the unexpected. My reading was positive, insightful and reaffirming. It made me feel good about myself, what I had accomplished with my life and how my life choices had more or less put me on the right track for the future. The reading was progressing along without a hitch until a card suggested I was losing sleep over something. That led to the first raised eyebrow. It became apparent that I was concerned about some specific people in my life. They all were facing one thing in common — serious illness.

Then the devil card pops up. What does this mean? “It means this puts you in a dark place,” she said. Turning over the next card, she said, “And this has happened to you before.” Turning over the next card, she said, “It makes you angry.” I could not deny it. I get angry because I think it is so unfair and that I’m powerless to do anything about it. Well, there it was. This is what was bothering me. The cards suggested there will be struggles ahead but not to give up hope. It was like a swift kick in the pants. I was so impressed with the reading that I left a tip. But I was disappointed that I learned nothing about how the repeal of Obamacare will affect me. There’s something about this that rubs me the wrong way. I have had a job for as long as I can remember. I have paid my taxes. I have voted. I have faithfully mowed my yard. I have tried to be a good citizen and father. I have played by the rules. Did I mention that I have mowed my yard? I’m powerless to do anything about it. Uh-oh — this is making me go to that dark place again. I think a second session might be in order.

One hundred years ago, motion pictures contended with vaudeville for the attention of the public. Joplin had multiple theaters that presented vaudeville and stage plays as well as silent movies. Motion pictures were still in their infancy, and Hollywood had not yet become the focus of the industry. Enterprising filmmakers across the country tried their hands at movie-making. Two Joplin women, Eunice Bernard and Leota Morgan, decided the Tri-State District was the right backdrop for a melodrama centered on the lead and zinc mines. The women BILL wrote, staged and CALDWELL performed in a sixreel silent film titled “The Toilers.” The Columnist film was recorded and directed by Lawrence Simmons, owner of Simmons’ Machine and Model Works at 210 Main St. It was described as the only film to show operations of the lead and zinc mines in the district. Simmons filmed scenes at the Liberty Bell, Cisco No. 3 and Coyne’s mines in Webb City, the Gassaway Brothers mine at Galena, the American Davey in Carterville and at other unnamed locations in Northeast Oklahoma. Area towns and mining camps provided locations for non-mining scenes. The film took four months to produce. The cast members were all local residents. Bernard and Morgan shared the lead with five men from Joplin and Webb City. Twelve minor characters and 150 miners made up the rest of the cast. One of the minor characters happened to be Thomas Coyne, whose mine in Webb City provided a location for shooting. A month before the movie was finished, it achieved some notoriety when the local man portraying the villain ruined film footage while intoxicated. He was taken to court for destruction of property. He told the court he wanted to know what effect his character would have on an audience. A hung jury did not reach a decision, and the case was later dropped. The story revolved around an unscrupulous mine promoter who swindles a gullible investor who thinks he can get rich overnight. Once the investor is bankrupt, the promoter hires him as a laborer. The laborer mistakenly thinks the promoter is still his friend and can’t be convinced of his error by his daughter, who has had to drop out of medical school because of the bankruptcy. In a mine explosion, the laborer loses his eyesight, but the villainous mine promoter volunteers to pay for treatment if the daughter will agree to marry him. Although the girl initially agrees, the promoter delays treatment for her father, who loses his eyesight. She breaks off the marriage, and her father extracts a promise from her to get revenge on the promoter. The family leaves the district. After a few years, the girl becomes an eye specialist and returns to Joplin to fulfill her vow of

This scene from “The Toilers” ran in the Globe in a preview of the movie. The melodrama was ﬁlmed in Joplin, Webb City, Carterville, GLOBE FILE Galena, Kan., and in mining camps around the area.

revenge. As with many melodramas, the heroine assumes a false identity, this time as a novelist investigating the Tri-State District mines owned by the now-retired villain. By a quirk of fate, she falls in love with the villain’s innocent son. While the son is showing her the mines, a similar explosion damages the son’s eyes. The woman now faces a dilemma — let him go blind to fulfill her vow to her father of revenge or fulfill her duty as a physician and treat his injury. She successfully treats her patient-fiance even as her father dies of shock that his long hoped-for revenge is stymied. Love triumphs as the couple is reunited. The film was shown in August 1917 at the Electric Theater over two days with performances beginning at 9:45 a.m and continuing to closing time. The News Herald reported: “Joplin’s film ‘The Toilers’ was well received yesterday at the Electric Theater. This popular playhouse was crowded to the doors last night. “The women are especially urged to attend the early-morning showing of this local film. They will have plenty of time to see the show, do their shopping and get home and prepare dinner for friend ‘hubby.’ “Not only is this a Joplin film, but Webb City is well-pictured. Don’t miss this picture because you will see yourself as others see you.” The movie was shown in Webb City. It was shown in Miami and other Oklahoma towns. In September, Bernard and Morgan announced that they planned over the next three months to take their film on tour in Missouri, Kansas and Oklahoma before heading to Chicago for a course in studio methods at the Selig-Polyscope Co. Bernard, Morgan and Simmons

did not follow up their creation with further productions. “The Toilers” passed out of popular memory over the next decades. It did not surface again until a Joplin man, Frank Thomas, launched a search for the old movie in 1988. The 81-year-old recalled watching the movie when he was 10, having spent 15 cents gained from selling newspapers on a ticket to the Electric Theater. In an interview with the Globe, Thomas told reporter Wally Kennedy that he remembered certain scenes very distinctly. One was of a woman who brought her husband lunch in an old-time lunch box and shared the lunch with him at his mine. Another was a street scene on Sixth and Main streets in front of the Newman Department Store as a Southwest Missouri streetcar passed by. Miners’ shacks in the old Kansas City Bottoms were another memorable sight. While he had conducted a diligent local search, he was unsuccessful. The movie is not listed in major film archive catalogs. Another strike against finding a copy is that the nitrate film used in the day is unstable and extremely flammable. It deteriorates over several decades and can even spontaneously ignite in storage vaults, so chances of finding a copy that could be recovered and transferred to digital media are very slim. Brad Belk, Joplin Museum Complex curator, said that the film, if found, would be “an invaluable study tool that would show a caption of time. It would be an accurate account of life in Joplin in 1917.”

ore than 100 Fort Riley soldiers are helping University of Kansas researchers study how intense running affects wounded soldiers with mild traumatic brain injury. David Johnson, who is leading a two-year study in Lawrence, Kansas, says many soldiers have signiﬁcant problems with traumatic brain injuries. Many of the injuries are caused by improvised explosive devices and other blasts. Clinical trials will assess whether intensive cardiorespiratory exercise helps wounded warriors recover from the injuries. Johnson’s premise is that aerobic exercise helps the brain heal itself. All the soldiers participating in the study have been exposed to major explosions. Johnson says soldiers will run to improve their aerobic capacity, with a goal of running more miles more quickly. The research is supported by $500,000 from the U.S. Department of Defense. SOURCE: THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Giving a shrug at the hole in the rug It started out as a small tear, and then it became a slightly larger rip. Now it’s officially a large hole. When it was a small tear, we figured no one would notice, so we left it alone. When it became a slightly larger rip, we figured that because it didn’t look too bad, we could live with it for a while. But now that it’s a large hole, we have a problem. The hole that started out as a tear is on the edge of our dining room rug, and it got there thanks to the restless teeth of our assistant dog, Caicos. Last year, when Caicos was still in her puppy stage, she developed a fondness for nibbling on the edge of the rug. That’s how the small tear occurred. Later, Caicos figured out how to turn the tear into a rip, and of course, that led to the rip becoming a hole. Caicos is not the only animal in our house responsible for the tear in the rug turning to a rip turning to a hole. Mo, one of our cats, also enjoys picking at the hole in the rug. I know this because I caught her doing it one day. I was in the family room watching football or baseball or basketball — does it really matter? — when I heard a noise coming from the living room. When I checked, I discovered that Mo had managed to roll the edge of the dining room rug

over and was tearing at the hole that used to be a rip that used to be a tear. I probably should have said MIKE something to Mo, but POUND the football or baseball Columnist or basketball game — again, does it really matter? — was in a commercial and I needed another beer, so I walked away. Later, when my wife came into the family room, she asked if I knew what happened to the dining room rug. “Yes,” I said. “Mo was tearing it up.” “Did you stop her?” my wife asked. “Of course,” I said. The thing is, no matter how many times I scold Caicos when I catch her chewing on the rug in the dining room, she eventually returns and does it again. This is because Caicos is a dog, and dogs have the attention span of Donald Trump. I can tell Caicos not to chew the dining room rug and she’ll stop. For a while. Then one day, she’ll start chewing on the rug again, the whole time thinking, “There is something I’m forgetting here,” until I catch her and yell at her.

“Oh, right,” Caicos will think. “I’m not supposed to be doing this.” The problem my wife and I have is that we don’t think it makes sense to replace the rug in the dining room until we’re certain that Caicos has outgrown her chewing stage. Years ago, when our German shepherd, Shilo, was about 2 years old and we thought she was out of her chewing stage, she ate our kitchen floor. Well, not the whole floor, but most of it. Based on that experience, we think it wise to hold off on replacing the rug. Besides, our dining room table sits on top of the rug, and I’m not sure how we will be able to move it to get the rug up. It would help if I could remember how we got the table in the dining room in the first place, but I can’t, so it doesn’t. So for now, we’re living with the hole in the rug that used to be a rip that started out as a tear. “But Mike,” some of you are wondering. “What happens if the rug becomes more hole than rug? What do you do then?” I don’t know about my wife, but I plan on getting another beer and going back to my football or baseball or basketball game.

DEAR ABBY: I love my parents and would do anything for them. They have never been good about managing money. They are both retired now and on a ﬁxed income, and they have been asking me or one of my four adult siblings for money to help with their bills each month. I don’t mind giving, but recently my siblings and I have become annoyed because, while they continue to ask for money, at the same time they are also taking short ABIGAIL trips, which VAN BUREN include hotels and rental cars, Columnist and inviting friends out to dinner. They also have a storage locker full of junk that eats up several hundred dollars a month. We have offered to help them clean out the locker to possibly make money from some of the items in there, but they never commit. Should my siblings and I continue to help, or should we put our collective feet down? — Annoyed in Alameda, Calif. DEAR ANNOYED: Put your collective feet down. You and your siblings are good children, but it’s time for an intervention. Before giving your parents more money, you should all sit down with them and help them to create a budget, taking into account their ﬁxed income and what you children can afford as a supplement. Then tell your parents they must live within that budget. Period. Their expenses must be trimmed, and the storage unit would be an excellent place to start.

DEAR ABBY: How do you discourage someone’s friendliness without being rude? An elderly man recently moved in with his family in our neighborhood. He roams the neighborhood and approaches anyone he sees to introduce himself and start a conversation. He doesn’t seem to have dementia, as he knows where and who he is, but his behavior is a little odd (such as asking for the precise spelling of everyone’s ﬁrst name). Unfortunately, now that he has met my husband and me, he comes up and knocks on the door to chat — weekdays, evenings, weekends. The last time I was outside with my three kids, he approached with a stack of photos and proceeded to show me at least 100 prints of a trip he had taken abroad — 10 years ago. I feel trapped because I don’t want to be mean to an old man, but I dread seeing him stroll down the road. What is the best way to deal with this situation? — Wanting to Withdraw DEAR WANTING: The poor man is probably lonely and looking for human contact. Because you are not prepared to engage in his “neighborly” conversations, the next time he strolls by, tell him that you do not have time to chat right now. If he knocks on your door, tell him that you are busy or that you will be leaving shortly. And suggest to him that he may want to ﬁnd a senior center so that he can make friends with contemporaries and won’t feel so isolated. ADDRESS CORRESPONDENCE to

Joplin buys additional land for new senior center BY DEBBY WOODIN dwoodin@joplinglobe.com

More land has been acquired by the city of Joplin near the future site of a new Joplin Senior Center. The city paid $110,000 for a parcel between 2602 and 2710 St. Johnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Boulevard, east of the original tract designated for the senior center, which is to be built next to Mercy Park. The land was purchased from Trey and Cynthia

Butler, according to city ofďŹ cials. Tony Robyn, Joplinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s assistant director of planning, development and neighborhood services, said the land was bought to provide an entrance for the senior center as well as additional parking. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The original concept was to potentially build an entrance off of the Mercy Park entryway, but this was determined not to be feasible from a trafďŹ c safety standpoint,â&#x20AC;? Robyn said.

Redevelopment THE NEW JOPLIN SENIOR CENTER is being built as part of the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s effort to redevelop the area where the former St. Johnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Regional Medical Center and neighboring properties were destroyed by the 2011 tornado. The city has earmarked $4.75 million to build the new center. Robyn said bid documents for the construction are currently being prepared with the intention

of posting bid requests in about two weeks. Project costs, including the purchase of the Butler property, are to be funded as a tornado recovery project from the $158 million the city received in federal disaster recovery funds. The current senior center, 2202 Jackson Ave., is about 50 years old and is considered inadequate for the programs and services provided there, according to city documents. One reason is that exercise and

other activities are carried out in the same area where meals are served, the city said. Additionally, there is not enough private ofďŹ ce space for services such as health care and insurance information to be discussed or for counseling to take place. The building is owned by the city, but programs are funded and administered through the Area Agency on Aging Region X. Those include a low-cost meals program, homebound meal

delivery and activities such as exercise classes, Medicare enrollment and games. A number of seniors signed a letter to the city in 2013 asking for a new center. They said they needed a larger building with a modern heating and air conditioning system that works better as well as better acoustics in the building. Additionally, the buildingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s bathrooms are not designed to be accessible by those who use walking aids or are disabled.

Neosho ďŹ re district receives grant for life-saving equipment Firehouse Subs foundation gives funds BY ARIEL COOLEY acooley@joplinglobe.com

NEOSHO, Mo. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The Neosho Area Fire Protection District has received a $15,396 grant from the Firehouse Subs Public Safety Foundation to purchase life-saving equipment. The district, which operates from three stations in central Newton County, used the money to pur-

chase Automated External DeďŹ brillators, which are portable and can be used to detect heart problems and treat victims with an electrical shock; pulse oximeters, which monitor a personâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s oxygen saturation; and a Rad 57 hand-held CO monitor, which can be used to check for carbon monoxide poisoning. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The equipment just enables our guys to give a higher level of care for any patients that we are responding to,â&#x20AC;? said Deputy Chief Jim Ledford. The new AED units and

Fire district THE NEOSHO AREA FIRE PROTECTION DISTRICT covers 93 square miles in Newton County.

pulse oximeters replace outdated equipment, but the Rad 57 is a new device for the station. Chief Mike Eads said the district was â&#x20AC;&#x153;very fortunateâ&#x20AC;? to have received the grant and noted that about 65 percent of calls ďŹ reďŹ ghters respond to are medical in nature, and having the right equipment can be the differ-

ence between life and death. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This equipment will help us improve our life-saving capabilities for the citizens and visitors in the Neosho area,â&#x20AC;? Eads said. The Firehouse Subs Public Safety Foundation was founded in 2005 in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina

with the mission of providing funding, life-saving equipment and education for ďŹ rst-responders and public safety organizations. Money comes from a portion of every purchase of a meal at all U.S. Firehouse Subs restaurant locations. The company was founded

by two Florida ďŹ reďŹ ghters in 1994 and now has more than 1,000 locations, including one at 1816 S. Range Line Road in Joplin. The foundation has given more than $24 million to ďŹ re departments across the country as well as in Puerto Rico and Canada.

But it gives the states wide latitude in implementing it. The Cassidy and Collins plan gives states the option of maintaining Obamacare mandates. Under that arrangement, states could get 95 percent of what the federal government now gives them in Obamacare funding. They also could choose to put the money into health care savings accounts for recipients. They also would have to require insurers cover people with existing medical conditions. However, Karen Pollitz, senior fellow for insurance and health care reform at the Kaiser Family Foundation, said there would be conditions. For example, people with preexisting conditions would be required to have 63 continuous days of coverage to still have a right to coverage. Many people lose insurance at some point, she noted, particularly if they lose their jobs. Those with lapsed insurance could ﬁnd coverage in new state programs at rates

that do not take their conditions into account or through more expensive policies, said a Capito spokeswoman. The Cassidy and Collins proposal also lets states turn down federal funding and not be subject to federal regulations — including the rule on preexisting conditions. In a press release, Isakson and Capito said the plan dumps costly mandates and empowers state ofﬁcials who know best what their communities need. In a report Wednesday, the Center on Insurance Reforms at Georgetown University said leaving decisions over preexisting conditions to states has pitfalls. Prior to the Affordable Care Act, states allowed insurers to make those with existing conditions wait months before their coverage kicked in. Nine states, including Oklahoma, had no limit on how long insurers could make people wait. The issue is important, particularly in states where a higher number of people

suffer from chronic illnesses, according to the Kaiser Foundation. Kaiser’s associate director for women’s health policy, Usha Ranji, told reporters Wednesday the issue is especially important for women. Paul, in a call with reporters, doubted that Republicans will unite behind the Cassidy and Collins plan because it keeps in place Obamacare’s tax system. He also doubted Republicans will support an approach of allowing states to keep the Affordable Care Act’s requirements. “‘If you really love Obamacare, you can keep it,’ is not a rallying cry many Republicans are going to want to rally around,” he said. Paul said he’s proposing a “free market” approach that dumps “regulations that have prevented inexpensive insurance from being sold,” including a requirement on insurers to provide coverage to the sick. His plan gives everyone $5,000 for a health care sav-

ings account. Consumers will also be allowed to group together to buy coverage, using their numbers to negotiate better prices as well as coverage for people with preexisting conditions. But Pollitz said the idea has been tried, and insurance companies insisted on charging those in associations with persistent medical conditions high rates. Toomey spokeswoman E.R. Anderson said in an email that even without a government mandate, people with chronic conditions can buy insurance in state-subsidized pools, along with others who’ve been denied insurance because of their health. Health care experts have said that idea also has its problems, however. The insurance pools have been underfunded, leading those involved to pay large premiums and deductibles.

UNIONS FROM 1A Democrats who supported pro-union positions. Among those targeted was Silvey. But that effort didn’t come cheaply. With no campaign contribution limits under the law at the time, both unions as well as some of Missouri’s biggest donors, including Humphreys, poured upward of $10 million into efforts to either remove some of those Republicans, or keep them in office. Two days before the override vote, Humphreys placed $500,000 into a new political action committee, the Committee for Accountable Government in Missouri, a warning to Republicans who might support the governor and the labor unions on the issue. After the vote, Humphreys’ committee took on those Republicans, with ads online, on television and with billboards. The following spring, he put another $500,000 into that committee. Last summer, the fight over right to work escalated when Humphreys aired an ad during a Kansas City Royals game instructing people to go to a website that showed them how to decertify a union. In response, the Committee to Protect Missouri Families, backed by labor organizations, aired an ad and launched a website asking Missourians to boycott Humphreys’ Joplin company, TAMKO Building Products Inc. With Nixon leaving office in 2016, Republican donors sensed an opening in the fall election. And though Humphreys didn’t back Eric Greitens in the Republican primary for Missouri governor, he said Greitens’ commitment to signing right-to-work legislation, as well as education and tort reform, ultimately won him over. Last year, Humphreys and family members donated more than $1.5 million to Greitens for the general election, and at least $2.75 million to political groups that support right-to-work candidates around the state. With Republican majorities in both houses, as well as a new Republican governor, Missouri this spring is poised to become the 28th state nationwide to pass it. The Missouri House and Senate each passed a version of a right-to-work bill this month, and the House this week is expected to take up the Senate version before the bill goes to the governor. Missouri will become the fourth Midwestern state to pass the law in five years, highlighting challenges faced by the U.S. labor movement even in areas long considered union strongholds. “What you used to say is ‘Gee, you’ll never see states like Michigan and Wisconsin pass right to work,’” said Barry Hirsch, a labor economist at Georgia State University. Both states passed the law in the past five years. That follows decades of declining union membership, which fell to 10.7 percent of the American workforce last year, according to figures released Thursday by the U.S. Department of Labor. In Missouri, union membership was about 27 percent of the workforce in 1964; today it fluctuates between 8 and 10 percent. According to Hirsch, the passage of right-to-work laws is a result of that trend.

Diplomats from the seven countries singled out by Trump’s order would still be allowed into the U.S. Those already in the U.S. with a visa or green card would be allowed to stay, according to the official, who wasn’t authorized to publicly discuss the details of how Trump’s order was being put in place and spoke only on condition of anonymity. Trump’s order also directed U.S. officials to review information as needed to fully vet foreigners asking to come to the U.S. and draft a list of countries that don’t provide that information. That left open the possibility that citizens of other countries could also face a travel ban. The U.S. may still admit refugees on a case-by-case basis during the freeze, and the government would continue to process requests from people claiming religious persecution, “provided that the religion of the individual is a minority religion in the individual’s country.” The Council on American-Islamic Relations said it would challenge the constitutionality of Trump’s order. “There is no evidence that refugees — the most thoroughly vetted of all people entering our nation — are a threat to national security,” said Lena F. Masri, the group’s national litigation director. “This is an order that is based on bigotry, not reality.” John Cohen, a former Department of Homeland Security counterterrorism official who worked under Democratic and Republican administrations, said the order didn’t address America’s “primary terrorism-related threat” — people already in the U.S. who become inspired by what they see on the internet. Trump’s order drew support from some Republican lawmakers who have urged more security measures for the refugee vetting program, particularly for those from Syria. “We are a compassionate nation and a country of immigrants. But as we know, terrorists are dead set on using our immigration and refugee programs as a Trojan Horse to attack us,” House Homeland Security Committee Chairman Michael McCaul said in a statement Friday. “With the stroke of a pen, he is doing more to shut down terrorist pathways into this country than the last administration did in eight years.” It is unclear how many people would be immediately impacted by the non-refugee travel ban. According to the statistics maintained by the Homeland Security Department, about 17,000 students from the seven designated countries were allowed into the U.S. for the 2015-2016 school year. In 2015 more than 86,000 people from those countries arrived in the U.S. on other, non-immigrant visas and more than 52,000 others became legal permanent residents. Last year the U.S. resettled 85,000 people displaced by war, political oppression, hunger and religious prejudice, including more than 12,000 Syrians.

BILLS FROM 1A solve the problem — this is a piece that could help,” Russ said. “There’s a lot of pieces to the puzzle that could help this situation.” “This situation” refers to the opioid epidemic nationwide that has seen overdose deaths surpass the number of deaths from traffic accidents and shootings. As chairman of the committee, state Sen. Rob Schaaf, R-St. Joseph, heard testimony on two separate bills that would create such a program, one of those his own bill. Schaaf has threatened to filibuster or has filibustered versions of bills to create a PDMP for all of those six years Russ mentioned, though Schaaf has proposed his own versions of a program that assuage his privacy concerns about medical professionals being able to access and steal information from an electronic database.

compromise where the physician gets the information he or she actually needs,” Schaaf said, referring to a warning to the doctor that the patient may be a “doctor shopper.” “Doctor shoppers” and “pharmacy hoppers” are those who go from physician to physician or pharmacist to pharmacist in an attempt to get prescriptions and refills for opioid-based drugs, such as hydrocodone and oxycodone. Most in the room testified against Schaaf’s bill and in favor of a version sponsored by state Sen. Dave Schatz, R-Sullivan. It would let physicians and pharmacists directly view that data that would be reported to a database overseen by the Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services. Physicians would be able to see what other prescriptions a patient is taking for what drugs and when it was written and filled. Plus, they would be able to proactively identify and offer help to someone with an addiction instead of waiting for the addict to break the law. “I ask the question: Being a doctor, being a physician, does having more information make you a better doctor or a worse doctor?’”

Schatz said. “In every instance, everyone answers ... that having more and more information makes you an effective doctor.” State Rep. Holly Rehder, R-Sikeston, has sponsored a bill similar to Schatz’s in the House. “It’s just like if you work in a hospital and you are physician, you have access to everyone’s records there, but under HIPAA law, you are not allowed to access them,” Rehder said, referring to a federal medical records privacy act.

LOCAL DATABASES EXIST Schatz also noted that through local and county databases, about 1.5 million of Missouri’s 6 million residents live in areas in the state that already fall under PDMPs. Several of the county programs work through existing databases used to track pseudoephedrine. The few opponents to Schatz’s bill argued it would mean providing personal medical information to government databases, and they also noted doctor or pharmacy shopping is a criminal activity and should be treated as such. State ofﬁcials who have access to the database would be able to report abuses to law enforcement.

from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday. The educational event is held by the INTEGRIS Grove Hospital Auxiliary. During the free wellness event, guests can participate in free health screenings and will have the opportunity to purchase a bowl of homemade soup. Free screenings that will be offered include cholesterol, vision, EKG, blood pressure, bone density, glucose, heart rate, oxygen saturation and more. INTEGRIS physicians and advanced practice providers will be on hand at the event to meet guests and answer health questions. For a $5 donation, guests also receive a bowl of homemade soup or three sample size portions, a drink and dessert. Soup will be served from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. All proceeds from the fundraiser will beneﬁt the INTEGRIS Grove Hospital Auxiliary. Details: 918-786-2243 or integrisgrove.com.

State Sen. David Sater, R-Cassville, who supports Schatz’s bill, noted that, “They may be good people, but they get trapped,” he said, referring to some of those who fall victim to drug abuse. He said he favors Schatz’s version because it would create “a program that would help those law-abiding citizens that get trapped.” At the end of the hearing, Schaaf held a vote for his own PDMP bill, which passed, advancing it to another committee before it would go to the full Senate. Schaaf did not allow a vote on Schatz’s bill. “I disagree with you and do think you are showing prejudice right now,” Sater told Schaaf about allowing a vote on one bill but not the bill that garnered the most support. Schatz said he has already re-ﬁled his bill to go through a Senate Transportation and Infastructure and Public Safety Committee Committee that he chairs. Sater noted that he carried a similar bill in the

Senate for three years and almost passed it one year. The bill failed in the House, however, after compromises in the Senate made the program too expensive with “too much baggage.” “I gave it my best try,” Sater said. “... That kind of wore me out a little bit.” Instead, Sater has passed the torch to Schatz and has focused his efforts on helping educate his fellow pharmacists. On behalf of the Missouri Board of Pharmacy, Sater ﬁled a bill this year that would allow the board to use some of the money it collects from licensing fees to help educate pharmacists about opioid abuse and safety measures when it comes to medication. He presented the bill to a committee he chairs on Wednesday. “It’s going to be an educational program for the pharmacists to make sure people are not getting addicted to pain medication or opiates,” Sater said. He also said he expects it to pass through committee to the next step of the legislative process.

Royals fans mourn death of Ventura A day after the news circulated about the death of Yordano Ventura, I stopped by Kauffman Stadium on my way home from work. About two dozen other Kansas City Royals fans were already there when I arrived. Some of the fans left Royals memorabilia, such as jerseys and baseballs signed by the Royals pitcher, and others stood around the impromptu memorial and prayed. One man was on his knees and started to cry. It was a similar scene this weekend during the Royals FanFest at the Kansas City Convention Center. Thousands of somber fans entered a room dedicated to MARK Ventura’s SCHREMMER life that included a pitching Columnist mound with a framed jersey, various photos of the 25-year-old pitcher from the Dominican Republic, and a large baseball that featured the No. 30. There were also walls available for Royals fans to sign and leave a message to the fallen pitcher. A sampling of the messages included: “R.I.P. Ace. You will be missed dearly.” “R.I.P. Gone too soon. You will be greatly missed. Forever Royal.” “Unforgettable. Thank you for sharing your talent, your smile, and yourself with Kansas City! You will be missed.” As you’re all well aware by now, Ventura died from injuries sustained in a car accident while driving in the Dominican Republic during the early morning hours of Jan. 22. Saying that he left us too soon is an extreme understatement. Ventura, who pitched for the Royals during the 2014 and 2015 World Series, had so much more left to accomplish. The heartache caused by seeing someone so young die before his time is something everyone can understand. However, it does make one wonder how someone’s life could impact so many people who likely never met him. Obviously, I don’t know

Carr drove the lane for a layup with 8.1 seconds left in overtime, and the Lions nipped Central Oklahoma 83-82 on Saturday afternoon on Robert Corn Court inside the Leggett & Platt Athletic Center. The Lions (13-8, 7-5 MIAA) trailed for almost 26 minutes, including 70-64 after UCO’s Corbin Byford’s dunk that became a threepoint play. But Vince Fritz nailed a 3 from the right corner as the Lions scored six points in 56 seconds and tied it at 70 when Lawrence Brown made 1-of-2 free throws with 2:03 left. It was 73-73 after regulation as Fritz tipped away a lob pass near the basket and Brown grabbed the ball, and the Lions’ JJ Cratit shot a contested 30-footer that was on line but short.

Both acknowledged the Cardinals had great team chemistry. “What stands out to me is the camaraderie that we had,” said Ansley, who was known for his long distance shooting. “Most of us grew up together, so it was great to accomplish that with the guys you’d been playing with your whole life. And it was special to do it at a school known more for football.” “There was a lot of teamwork and a lot of the players were very dedicated to basketball,” added Spieker, who was the team’s center. Both added they enjoyed the get together. “Time really ﬂies,” Spieker said. “It was really nice to see everybody. I haven’t seen some of those guys since high school, so it was nice to catch up.” “It doesn’t seem like it’s been that long until you come back to something like this,” Ansley added.

Card announced for ShoBox event BY JASON PEAKE jpeake@joplinglobe.com

Eight fighters with a combined record of 100-6-4 will be on center stage when ShoBox: The New Generation airs live from Buffalo Run Casino & Resort on Friday, February 10. With the Four State Franchise playing host from the Peoria Showplace in Miami, Oklahoma, the professional boxing card will be broadcast worldwide on the Showtime network. Headlining the event will be a 10-round super-lightweight showdown between Ivan “The Beast” Baranchyk (13-0) of the Four State Franchise and Abel Ramos (17-1-2). A USBA and WBC title-holder originally from Russia, Baranchyk is now ranked seventh by the IBF in his weight class. An Arizona native, Ramos has won three straight fights since suffering his first defeat. In the co-main event, the Four State Franchise’s Trey Lippe-Morri-

WOMEN FROM 1B baseline and Jasmine Green from the right corner, and Holcomb’s driving layup gave the Lions a 54-52 lead with 1:40 left. The Bronchos tied the game on Anderson’s two free throws with 54 seconds remaining, and UCO’s defense then kept the Lions from getting a good look at the basket. But just before the shot clock expired, Holcomb launched a shot from about 28 feet on the right side, and the ball banked off the glass and directly into the basket for a three-point lead with 24.1 seconds left. “I knew the shot clock was going down,” Holcomb said. “Really I just wanted to hit the rim to give us a chance to get the rebound. I heard Coach saying ‘step back, do the step back,’ and I was thinking to myself I’m already I feel like 40 feet off the line. I shot it, and it went in.” Murillo made two more free throws to make it a one-point game with 24 seconds left, and it took the Bronchos 13 seconds to commit four fouls and put the Lions at the foul line where Henry made both charities for a 59-56 lead with 11.5 seconds to play. The Bronchos’ Olivia Mason had

son (13-0) meets Daniel Martz (15-4-1) in a heavyweight clash. Lippe-Morrison, who continues to train in Los Angeles under the direction of Freddie Roach, has stopped nine of his 13 opponents in less than a full round. “I’m looking forward to seeing Ivan against a very good opponent and give Daniel Martz a lot of credit for taking the fight against Trey,” Four State Franchise promoter Tony Holden said. “We had serious difficulties finding an opponent for Trey. Both fighters should be in position to advance their careers with a victory.” Next, Lenin Castillo (15-0-1) will take on Joseph “Mack” Williams (10-0) in an eight-round light-heavyweight scrap. Castillo is a former Olympian for the Dominican Republic, while Williams is from Queens, New York. The other televised fight will feature Spain’s Jon Fernandez (10-0) against Michigan native Ernesto Garza (7-1) in eight rounds of featherweight action. Fernandez will be

fighting in the United States for the first time. The eight fighters who will competing on television own a combined 76 wins by knockout. “With an all-action main event between Baranchyk and Ramos, the American debut of Fernandez, a battle of unbeaten light heavyweights and the return of Trey Lippe-Morrison, this card represents what ShoBox is all about,” promoter Lou DiBella said in a press release. DiBella promotes Castillo, Williams and Fernandez. In the non-televised portion of the event, the Four State Franchise’s Jarrett Rouse (10-0-1) and Kenzie Morrison (9-0-2) will be in action, but their opponents have not yet been announced. On February 10, doors open at 6:30 p.m., with the non-televised bouts scheduled to begin at 7:30. The show goes live on Showtime at 9. Tickets for the event are on-sale now through www.stubwire.com or www.buffalorun.com.

the ball on the left side and wanted to shoot a 3, but the ball was touched and wound up in the hands of Jesheon Cooper, who turned and made a shot from the foul line with 6 seconds left. Henry was fouled again — winding up on the floor in front of the MSSU bench. This time she missed the first free throw but made the second for a 60-58 lead with 5.4 on the clock. “You have to make sure you don’t get rattled, especially when you get thrown into the bench and have to shoot a free throw,” Henry said. “You work on free throws every day in the gym. I shoot about 100 a day. ... If I could go back, I would have taken more time on that first shot because my head was kind of hurting after being thrown into the bench. Free throws are repetition, and I’m confident in myself at the free-throw line.” UCO advanced the ball to the front court with a timeout. From the sideline Blake Blessington threw the ball inbounds to Anderson on the left side, and she pivoted and hit a 3-pointer — her only 3-point shot of the game — with 3.4 to play. “We were going to shoot a 3 for the win because we’d been struggling all day,” UCO coach Guy Hardaker said. “They guarded us like nobody has guarded us all year. And if we can’t get a clean look, throw it inside

and we’ll try to play for overtime.” The Lions went to a zone defense on the possession. “We felt we can guard the 3 a little better,” Ressel said, “because some of their screening action, they’ll pop out Mason and she’s a great shooter. If she pops, it’s hard for us to recover back. We had a miscue that we didn’t recover back and check the shot. “Those things are going to happen. I told the kids there are 500 things that I will think about tonight I could have done a lot different that may have changed the outcome of the game. I told them to keep their heads up. I’m proud of them because they played so hard.” On the Lions’ final possession, Jenson Maydew’s pass for Desirea Buerge at midcourt was high, and the Bronchos grabbed the ball and dribbled out the clock. Henry and Holcomb finished with 16 points apiece for the Lions, and Buerge and Maydew both contributed 11. Buerge, battling against Cooper on the inside, came up with five steals, and Maydew snagged nine rebounds as the Lions outrebounded the bigger Bronchos 37-34. Mason scored 15 for UCO, including 11 in a five-minute stretch in the second quarter. Cooper had 14 points, nine rebounds and three blocks, and Murillo added 13.

Gorillas (4-16, 2-10 MIAA) to a resounding victory, as Pittsburg State snapped a six-game skid. Five players reached double ﬁgures for Pittsburg State, as Jordan Phelps and Isaiah Hicks scored 13 points apiece, Elijah Gaines and Creighton Brinker added 11 apiece and R.J. Pair chipped in 10. The output from Phelps was a season-high, while Hicks also contributed seven rebounds. Pittsburg State shot 54 percent from the ﬁeld, connecting on 33-of-61 attempts. The Gorillas also out-rebounded the RiverHawks 40-22.

Juvon Turner scored 12 points to lead Northeastern State (3-16, 2-9 MIAA). The RiverHawks made just 40 percent (20-49) of their ﬁeld goal attempts. Pittsburg State used a 13-2 spurt in the ﬁrst half to take a 43-32 lead into halftime. While the RiverHawks suffered through a cold shooting spell, the Gorillas used a 14-0 to put the game away.

Sarwinski, Gegg named prep athletes of week BY JIM HENRY jhenry@joplinglobe.com

Basketball players P.J. Sarwinski of Galena and Tristan Gegg of Labette County have been selected Joplin Globe high school athletes of the week for the week ending Jan. 21.

P.J. Sarwinski

P.J. SARWINSKI Sarwinski, 6-foot-1 senior point guard, was voted the most valuable player after Galena won the Tony Dubray Classic on Jan. 21 in Liberal.

eral in the semiﬁnals and 17 against St. Mary’s-Colgan in the championship game. “One of his strengths is leadership,” Galena coach Matt Meyr said. “He’s been the starting point guard for three years. He’s the leader of the team in everything that he does. The kids follow him. When he’s going well, everyone else is following.”

For the season Sarwinski averages 16 points, five rebounds and four assists per game. “He’s good inside, he’s good outside, he’s a good free throw shooter,” Meyr said. “He does it all. I’ll keep him for a couple more years if they will let me.

LEXINGTON, Ky. — Frank Mason III scored 21 points, Josh Jackson had 20 points and a pair of big 3-pointers and No. 2 Kansas rallied past No. 4 Kentucky 79-73 on Saturday night in the SEC/Big 12 Challenge. The Challenge’s marquee matchup between college basketball’s

two winningest programs ended with the Jayhawks earning their second straight win over the Wildcats on Kentucky’s home ﬂoor. Three-point shooting was critical for Kansas (19-2) as it shook off an 0-for-8 ﬁrst half to make 5 of 11 after halftime, with Jackson’s consecutive 3s starting things for the Jayhawks. They shot 59 percent in the second half.

Mason had 13 second-half points and Landen Lucas contributed 13 points — including a layup with 4:41 remaining for a 69-59 lead — and ﬁve rebounds before fouling out. Jackson also had 10 rebounds. Malik Monk and Derek Willis each had 18 points for Kentucky (17-4), which dropped its second straight.

Presley breaks own school record FROM STAFF REPORTS sports@joplinglobe.com

PITTSBURG, Kan. — Emily Presley couldn’t have asked for a better start to her sophomore campaign. A week after rewriting the Missouri Southern pole vaulting record books, Presley was back at it again on Saturday afternoon inside Pittsburg State’s Plaster Center. Presley, of St. Clair, Missouri, cleared 14-feet to win the women’s pole vault event at the Pittsburg State Invitational, breaking her previously-set record of 13-7.25 at last week’s MSSU Invite. “Obviously it is a pretty impressive jump,” Lions coach Bryan Schiding said. “She was trying to be consistent from last week. Her goal was to top what she jumped last week by maybe a little more. Five inches in the pole vault is a lot more; we were hoping for a little bit. And she had some good attempts at 14-2 as well. “At that time she would be tied for sixth in the Division I rankings. She’s established herself as a pretty solid pole vaulter.” Presley, who won last spring’s outdoor national championship as a freshman, entered the competition at the 12-05 mark where two competitors remained. Central Missouri’s Brittany Kallenberger cleared 12-10.75 to ﬁnish second

and Oral Roberts’ Tiffany Richeson took third with a jump of 12-02.75. Missouri Southern freshman Mylene Loridan, who ranked 14th nationally prior to the event, no-heighted, failing to clear the ﬁrst mark of 11-07. Pittsburg State’s Megan Wickersham also did not clear the opening height. MSSU freshman Samantha Donnell set a provisional mark of 11-10.75 to win the open division of the pole vault.

MSSU WOMEN BREAK MEDLEY MARK A Missouri Southern relay team of Morgan Smith, Destiny Akannam, Kristen Koch and Allie Heckemeyer broke the 4X400 school record with a time of 3:56.78. “None of the four ran on the relay last year,” Schiding said. “In the second race, that’s pretty neat for them.” The Lions ﬁnished ninth of 34 teams in the event. Pittsburg State’s ‘A’ team of Rhema Taylor, Emilyn Dearman, Olivia Boone and Courtney Nelson ﬁnished third with a provisional time of 3:49.18.

KIPROP BEATS OWN RECORD In his first action since winning the cross country national championship in November, Vincent Kiprop kicked off his indoor season with a first-place finish. Kiprop, a sophomore from Ken-

ya, won the 3K event with a time of 8:17.53, besting his school record by nearly six-tenths of a second. Junior Tyler Rush ﬁnished eighth. “The guys side showed more spark this week,” Schiding said. “Vincent ran solid. And Tyler ran 8:38, not a bad opening time.”

BURNS IN ACTION Bryan Burns saw his first action of the indoor season, as he was the shot put runner-up with a provisional heave of 57-06.5. A junior from Carthage, Burns finished behind Central Missouri’s Jacob Mahin, who had a series best 57-07.5. The mark, along with a fourthplace weight throw of 58-10.75, were personal bests for Burns. “This was the first time he threw this season, coming off a solid preseason,” Schiding said. “It was a good opener for sure against some really good competition.” After a first-place finish in the weight throw last week in his Lion debut, Missouri Southern’s Junior Joseph took ninth with a series best toss of 55-05. Joseph, a native of Wichita, Kansas, and junior transfer from Hutchinson Community College, threw it 60-7.75 last week. Next weekend the Lions will take smaller groups to the Central Missouri Mule Relays in Warrensburg. The women compete on Friday and the men on Saturday.

WEBB CITY BOYS FALL OZARK, Mo. — A poor third quarter doomed the Webb City Cardinals in a 57-42 loss to Vianney at the Scoreboard Guy Shootout at Ozark High School. Vianney held a 29-26 halftime advantage, but the Golden Grifﬁns outscored the Cardinals 13-2 in the key third period to take control. The fourth quarter was nearly even, but the deﬁcit proved to be too big for the Cardinals, who fell back to .500 at 8-8. Trey Gibson scored 14 points to lead Webb City, while Alex Pickett added 10. Eric Krus scored 13 for Vianney, which is located just outside of St. Louis in Kirkwood. Webb City, which travels to Carl Junction on Tuesday night, will host a rescheduled Scoreboard Guy Shootout next Saturday.

She does whatever we ask her to do. “This year Tristan has had to pick up her game because people started guarding her closer outside the 3-point line now,” Snider said. “She’s developing her game every day. She has the ability to go inside and out. “She’s an excellent student, too. She was on the all-academic team as well.”

Garcia topped Platte County’s Sage Smart in an 8-5 decision to move to 24-4 overall. Booe ran his record to 28-10 with a 4-1 decision over Platte County’s Matthew Knopp. In unfortunate turns, Jacob Bartlett (24-8) and Jadyn Withrow (32-5) each finished fourth after bowing out of respective third-place matches due to medical forfeit. Bartlett was set to face Alex Glynn of Lee’s Summit North, while Withrow bowed to Kickapoo’s PJ Walker. “Some of our guys wrestled really well and some of our guys got a little banged up, but we saw a lot of good competition,” Myers said.

Carroll leads OSU No. 5 Baylor rallies to top Ole Miss over Razorbacks SEC/Big 12 men

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Forte adds 18 points for host Cowboys THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

STILLWATER, Okla. — Jeffrey Carroll scored 20 points and grabbed seven rebounds, Phil Forte had 18 points and six assists, and Oklahoma State beat Arkansas 99-71 on Saturday in the SEC/Big 12 Challenge. Forte, a sixth-year senior, shot 4 of 9 from 3-point range to become just the seventh Big 12 player ever to reach 300 made 3-pointers. He also broke the Oklahoma State school record of 299 set by Keiton Page from 2008-12. Page is now OSU’s assistant director of player development. “It’s definitely a moment I won’t forget,” said Forte, who tied the record with 10:59 remaining and set it with 5:21 to go, sending the sellout crowd of 13,611 into a frenzy. “Seeing how my teammates reacted is what made it so special — just their reaction on the bench and them coming up to me and high-fiving. It was definitely fun to do in front of our fans.” Jawun Evans added 16 points, seven rebounds and eight assists for the Cowboys (13-8), who won their third straight after a sixgame losing streak. Jaylen Barford scored 21 points to lead Arkansas (165), which saw its four-game winning streak snapped. Barford scored Arkansas’s first seven points, then didn’t score again until early in second half. “They just outplayed us,” said Arkansas coach Mike Anderson. “I thought we’d have a much better performance, but when you go on the road, you’ve got to make shots. We didn’t make shots early on, we didn’t get stops.” Oklahoma State started quickly, amassing early

leads of 9-0 and 14-2, while the Razorbacks missed their first four shots and five of their first six. Arkansas pulled within 25-17 with 10:22 left in the opening half, but the Cowboys went on an 18-5 run over the next five-plus minutes to push the advantage over 20. Oklahoma State led 59-33 at halftime.

BIG PICTURE ARKANSAS: After battling back from a 15-point deficit in the final 6:02 to win 71-70 at Vanderbilt on Tuesday, the Razorbacks couldn’t put together back-to-back miracle comebacks. They had difficulty slowing down Oklahoma State’s potent offense, allowing 59 firsthalf points and 99 overall, both season-highs. After four straight SEC wins, Arkansas will undoubtedly be happy to get back to their conference schedule. OKLAHOMA STATE: The defensive changes that sparked the Cowboys to two straight Big 12 victories helped them again in this one, limiting Arkansas to 41.4 percent shooting (24 for 58), while connecting on 54.3 percent of their shots from the floor (19 for 35) in the first half and 50 percent (33-of-66) overall. It was their third straight game hitting the 50 percent mark.

LETDOWN Arkansas’ leading scorer Daryl Macon, who entered averaging 14 points per game, was shut out for the first time this season. Macon, who had scored in double digits in all but four games, shot 0-for-8 from the floor, including 0-for-6 from 3-point range. He also had one rebound and one assist in 25 minutes of action, while picking up three firsthalf fouls. “He just didn’t play well,” Anderson said. “And in order for us to be that team that we know we’re capable of being, he’s got to play well.”

OXFORD, Miss. — Manu Lecomte scored 17 points, Johnathan Motley and Jo Lual-Acuil Jr. each added 16 and No. 5 Baylor rallied to beat Mississippi 78-75 on Saturday in the SEC-Big 12 Challenge. Baylor (20-1) rallied from a 15-point deficit in the first half to win its fifth straight game. The Bears trailed 50-40 early in the second half, but pushed ahead to take their first lead at 56-54 with 10:25 left after Motley made a pair of free throws. It was a close game from that point forward. Lecomte hit a decisive 3-pointer with 23 seconds left that made it 78-72 and sent many of the Ole Miss fans to the exits.

A&M’s close loss to Arizona on Dec. 17, 2016. His 18 rebounds were the most by any Aggie since Andy Slocum also had 18 against Texas in 2004.

Vladimir Brodziansky had 19 points and a gamehigh eight rebounds for the Horned Frogs.

Top 25 men points, and Miami snapped North Carolina’s seven-game win streak. The Hurricanes (14-6, 4-4 Atlantic Coast Conference) had success with a swarming zone defense. The Tar Heels’ point total was a season low and 27 below their average, and they shot only 35 percent. Miami also had a 41-36 edge in rebounding against the Tar Heels (19-4, 7-2), who lead the nation in that category. Ja’Quan Newton added 18 points and seven rebounds for the Hurricanes, whose biggest lead was 55-33. Justin Jackson led North Carolina with 21 points. Joel Berry II went 0 for 8 and scored two points, 13 below his average.

GEORGIA TECH 62, NO. 14 NOTRE DAME 60 ATLANTA — Josh Okogie made a fast-break layup as time expired, Tadric Jackson had a career-high

25 points and Georgia Tech earned another surprising victory over a ranked opponent. The inexperienced Yellow Jackets (13-8, 5-4 Atlantic Coast Conference), in their ﬁrst year under coach Josh Pastner, already had two wins over top-10 opponents before taking down the Fighting Irish (17-5, 6-3). Notre Dame’s Matt Farrell went up for a short jumper but missed off the rim with 7 seconds remaining. Jackson grabbed the rebound, tossed the ball to a streaking Okogie, and McCamish Pavilion erupted in cheers. Ben Lammers, the only player on either team to play the entire game, had 15 points and 10 rebounds for Georgia Tech. V.J. Beachem scored 23 points for the Irish, and Bonzie Colson had 13 points and 13 rebounds.

NO. 15 WISCONSIN 61, RUTGERS 54 NEW YORK — Ethan Happ scored seven of his career-high 32 points in over-

time, helping Wisconsin get the win at Madison Square Garden. Happ was 12 for 18 from the field. He was the only player for Wisconsin (18-3, 7-1 Big Ten) to shoot above 50 percent; the Badgers shot 33.3 percent (20 for 60) from the field, including a 3-for-25 performance from 3-point range. Corey Sanders had 15 points for the Scarlet Knights (12-10, 1-8), who lost for the ninth time in 10 games. Rutgers finished with a 44-41 rebound advantage, but the Scarlet Knights committed 19 turnovers that turned into 17 points for the Badgers.

star point guard Maurice Watson Jr. was shelved by a major knee injury. Billy Garrett Jr. scored 18 points and Brandon Cyrus had 12 for the Blue Demons (8-13, 1-7). Creighton has won 10 of its last 11 meetings with DePaul, including eight of nine since joining the Big East in 2013.

Add Doc Keeter to list of areaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s top golfers I was chatting with a friend (a golfer, by the way) the other day and he mentioned that I had left out a ďŹ ne player in my frequent columns on the greatest local and area players that Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve seen over many years of playing and covering golf. I quickly ticked off the names of Bob Smith, Darril Tate, Dennis Goettel, Dave Dennis, Bruce Hallowell, Payne Stewart, Jim HatďŹ eld, Barry Franks, the Borland brothers, Jack James, etc., etc. The list could go on and on. But he got me. I was scratching my head when he ďŹ nally smiled and said: â&#x20AC;&#x153;How about James Keeter?â&#x20AC;? I had forgotten about Doc. He was truly one of the best shot-makers I ever saw. And he was a ďŹ ne putter. I remember the ďŹ rst trip I took to San Antonio, Texas, after snow blanketed much of Southwest Missouri, Southeast Kansas and Northeast Oklahoma. We had waited 40 days for the snow to melt, but it wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t. So Bob Ames asked Keeter, Dr. Stan Knoderer and me if we would be interested in going south until we found green grass. All of us eagerly agreed. Our destination originally was intended to end at Dallas. But snow was whipping across the highway as we passed through the Texas metropolis and we kept on going. In Waco, which was very cold, a service station attendant suggested that we werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t all that far from San Antonio and it wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t cold in that city. I had played a quite a bit of golf with Doc, Stan and Bob on Saturday mornings at Schiffer-

decker Municipal Golf Course and learned to appreciate Keeterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s skills with golf clubs and his putter. He usually shot in the mid to low 60s, but he played only for a soft drink. No CLAIR money changed GOODWIN hands. Every Saturday, he would Columnist drink his ďŹ ll because no one could beat him, even though he would give everyone quite a few strokes. Doc would not play in tournaments, I suspect for religious reasons. Few of todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s golfers, sadly, have ever heard of Keeter. He was a Joplin chiropractor and, as such, had extremely sensitive, strong hands and ďŹ ngers. He could move the golf ball from leftto-right or right-to-left at will. He never seemed to exert himself when swinging a club. Doc told me that he never changed his stance to hit a fade, a draw or a straight ball. He did everything by feel with his hands. He would release the ball to the left for a draw and to the right for a fade. He also could regularly hit the ball straight, something that I seldom saw even really good players do. In San Antonio we teed it up at the long, challenging Pecan Valley and the long, relatively open Willow Springs. Willow was a municipal course with the longest par-5 in the area. That was No. 3 and it measured over 600 yards. The fairway swung to

the right around a copse of trees to a distant green with trees on three sides. A stream ran along the right of the fairway and green. I remember hitting a wood for my third shot. I think that everyone else hit woods, too, except Keeter. He bombed his left-to-right drive, cutting off part of the corner and mashed a big 3-wood before plopping a short-iron into the large green. In the many times we played that course over the next several years, Doc probably birdied that hole half-dozen times. My best was a par. Only Keeter and, a few years later, Danny Endicott had the ďŹ repower to get around the corners and onto the green in three every time. While Stan and I were intrigued by Willow Springs, Keeter loved it. It was a course for those who could hit the ball long and maneuver it. He could do both. Its yardage was over 7,000 yards and par was 72. I have played quite a few tour courses over the years and would rate San Antonioâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Willow Springs and Pecan Valley layouts as equal to many of them. Pecan Valley actually hosted a PGA Championship. You simply couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t put your game on autopilot at either course and expect good results. They demanded concentration and excellent shot-making. The only tournament that I remember Doc playing was an Ozark Amateur in which a good friend paid his entry fee. Doc didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to play, but he teed it up with the promise that his benefactor would get anything that he

won. I think he played poorly and may have won a dozen golf balls, which he gave to his ďŹ nancial supporter. For the record, I wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t the one who paid his way into the event. Docâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s greatest claim to fame was shooting in the 60s every time he played at Schifferdecker one summer during the mid-1970s. I ďŹ gured he must have done it about 35 to 40 times that year. But it might have been more. Doc didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t keep records. But several of his playing companions agreed that he was in the 60s every time he went out with him on Saturday mornings. I nominated Jay Keeter for the Joplin Golf Hall of Fame once, but he had never played in the invitationals at Twin Hills or Briarbrook, only once entered in the Ozark Amateur and didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t play in other area tournaments. There was simply no record of his talent, other than the memories of those with whom he played. And with no checkable track record, it is difďŹ cult â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and should be â&#x20AC;&#x201D; to persuade anyone that Docâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s name belongs among the best of the best in the history of Joplin golf. As far as I am concerned, though, Doc was one of the best ball-strikers I ever saw. I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t prove how good he was, but in my heart and mind his ball-striking talent was among the best.

GOOD CONDITION Doc Keeter would run from his home about two miles away on Saturday mornings, get his clubs out of his locker at Schifferdecker and walk 18 holes. Then after his round, he would down a soft

drink, put his clubs back in his locker and run back home. When we played the San Antonio courses, at least the ďŹ rst few years, we walked. I got tired. So did just about everyone else, except Doc. He was quite a golfer and a friend.

About 50 years ago, while I was a student at School of the Ozarks, I met a true conservationist who had worked for many years for the old Missouri Conservation Commission in the 1940s and â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;50s. In the 1960s he retired and became a teacher at the college. His name was A.R. Mottesheard. I took every course he taught, and one of them was a wildlife management course where he had students take 80 acres of land and draw up a management plan for the imaginary plot, which could be whatever we wanted it to be. Mine was about twothirds timber and one-third bottomland along a creek that I was planting for small game, deer and turkey. I thought to myself at the time that it was a real dream, because no kid as poor as I was would ever own any land whatsoever. I remember the wisdom of Mr. Mottesheard, who often said that conservation departments never really manage wildlife. Their job was just to make the needs of the various species available for breeding and raising young, for escape from predators and for an available diversity of plant life needed for food. He said that conservation departments were more responsible for managing hunters and managing the harvests of game and making sure that hunters and ďŹ shermen took available excess without cutting into brood stock. I never thought I would be involved in the managing of a tract of land to feed protect and propagate wildlife, but it is what I am

I am particularly interested in the propagation of quail and rabbits, and it seems as if those things I learned from Mr. Mottesheard are paying dividends. A quail ďŹ&#x201A;ock of about 18 bobwhites from last February seems to be much larger this winter, and on this tract of 50 or 60 acres, there is a plan now to have plots of late winter food for them, good winter cover and escape areas. I am beginning to turn my attention to the control of predators as we have far too many of three species â&#x20AC;&#x201D; skunks, possums and raccoons â&#x20AC;&#x201D; all of them known to eat all the eggs of any ground-nesting birds they ďŹ nd. The armadillo, a no-account illegal immigrant from way south of us, has established a foothold in the Ozarks. I will pray that feral hogs donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t invade the place. Right now, hawks are not as serious a problem along Panther Creek as in other parts of the Ozarks, but there are way too many otters. As for deer and turkey, they are abundant on the Panther Creek tract I manage but not much will hurt the numbers of either, unless the place has a year

or two of no acorns. There will be no logging here, so that shouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be a problem. I wish I had saved that big spread-out plan I ďŹ xed up for Mr. Mottesheard way back then. I would like to see if I had any ideas as a 17-year-old kid that I could use now. But when you push through a small patch of milo and millet, and a dove or two takes to ďŹ&#x201A;ight, and then you watch a cottontail feeding on clover at the edge of a big patch of sericea lespedeza, and hear bobwhites calling from a thicket between the timber and the creek at dusk, you feel good about working the land. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not looking toward a harvest of grain as farmers must do, but toward creating something lasting for wild creatures, and young people who may see something when they visit that they will never have an opportunity to see in the pavement and concrete world where they have to grow up.

FYI Did you know that bobwhite quail roosters often take over a hatching brood

and stay with them for weeks until they mature, while the hen who laid the eggs goes off and mates with a new cock and brings off another clutch? Biologists learned that by putting little transmitters around the body smaller than a dime and following adult birds. If a nest of eggs is destroyed, the hen usually will lay another nest full, and some hatching occurs as late as mid-August. But young quail hatched after August begins will have a very poor survival rate in the late fall if the weather is bad. They do not develop enough body weight and fat to survive if cold persists in October and early November.

‘She really cares’ Once homeless Baxter Springs teacher feels at home in school BY CRYSTAL THOMAS cthomas@joplinglobe.com

efore Nicolette Hastings walked into her ﬁrst day of second grade at Duenweg Elementary, she thought she was worthless. Her own parents had told her she was dumb, was too poor and that she couldn’t do anything meaningful. Her family of six lived inside a school bus with a small shower and stove. The bus had meandered its way from Ohio, where her alcoholic

A broken-down bus meant she could attend the same school for more than a few days. Walking into Mrs. Patricia Secrest’s classroom at the start of the second semester, Hastings didn’t know she would remember that day for the rest of her life.

Longtime shelter animals wait patiently for homes While I was rufﬂing the furry neck of a sweet dog named Olivia earlier this week, Brett Fox brought up a really good point about dogs between the ages of 1 and 3. Fox, the adoption center director for the Neosho-based Faithful Friends Animal Advocates, said the main reason why poor Olivia has remained at the shelter since late July pretty much has to do with her appearance. Mainly, Olivia looks like fully-grown dog, especially when you factor in that she tips the scales at 45 pounds. But as the popular idiom teaches, you should never judge a book by its cover. Despite her size, Olivia is still very much a younge girl. See, when a puppy is fully grown, Fox

explained, “people just assume they are grown dogs and (that) they are untrainable or will have issues. What they don’t realize is that dogs are still puppies until they reach the age KEVIN of 3.” McCLINTOCK Despite her size and maturity, sweet Olivia is still very much Columnist a tongue-lagging, butt-wiggling puppy. Alexandra Marsh, FFAA’s animal care coordinator, can certainly attest to that. “She’s very playful, and she loves to fetch,” Marsh said.

The act of pointing — becoming motionless with snout directed toward a distant object, usually a bird — was bred into the breed hundreds of years ago. “She’ll stick her nose and tail out and stare into the air,” Marsh said with a chuckle. “She loves to run, and she needs a lot of room to run.” Olivia, who does well with other dogs and adores families with small children, had been abandoned in rural Newton County before making her way to the shelter. Despite being rail-thin at the time, today she is quite healthy and completely caught up on her shots. Though she may look fully grown, “I want her,” Marsh admitted. Olivia is still a puppy.

We all have standards by which we measure our daily experiences. For example, my standard for cheapness is the acquaintance who dabs on perfume from her 30-year collection of paper perfume inserts from magazines. I hope I don’t MARTI sound too ATTOUN hoity-toity (I have a standard Columnist for that, too) when I say that perfume curdles. I don’t think that’s the correct scientific term, but anyway, it stinks. And my personal standard for promptness was set years ago by my mother, who arrived at the hospital for my sister’s outpatient surgery four hours before the patient. I’ll never measure up to that one. Among my personal favorite benchmarks is “worst home fix-up before you put your house on the market.” This goes to the homeowner who tried to hide his crumbling plaster walls with ugly wood paneling. The paneling wasn’t the “worst” but rather the duct tape that he used to secure it to the potholed walls. Like everyone else, my yardsticks to measure best, worst, ugliest, most boring, funniest, whatever are constantly changing. But this week, I added a new standard for “laziest.” I just read about the high-tech, self-making bed. How lazy can we get? So instead of taking one minute to make the bed and burn off enough calories to eat one Froot Loop, we can eliminate this household chore with a Smartduvet. This marvel is a sheet with a grid of inflatable tubes that fits between the duvet and duvet cover. Then with one tap of the “make bed” app on your smartphone, the duvet will instantly inflate and return the cover to its proper position. You can preset the bed-making time. I guess this is like presetting the coffeepot. My worry here is that I’d preset the bed-making time, then oversleep one day and be smothered by my own duvet.

Rereading books a boon to mental health It was a dark and stormy night. But I didn’t care a bit because I was wrapped in a ﬂuffy blanket with my favorite tattered copy of “Emma” to keep me company. I’d been looking forward to it all week — and it’d been a doozy of a week. The pages pulled me in just as I’d hoped, with scenes as quirky and comforting as the bright blanket on my lap, as familiar as the sound of raindrops on window panes and a short-nosed dog snoring at my side, as necessary to my reclamation of peace as the bedtime to which I’d just shooed my kids. The beauty of a repeat literary offender is indeed sweet. I looked it up once. Because I know how to party. We’re drawn to rereading our favorite novels — rewatching our favorite movies, re-immersing ourselves in episodes of our favorite shows — because the experience allows us to become more in touch with ourselves, more rooted in self-understanding. These conclusions were drawn in a paper published in The Journal of Consumer Research back in 2011 titled “The Temporal and Focal Dynamics of Volitional Reconsumption: A Phenomenological Investigation of Repeated Hedonic

Experiences.” I expect to reread that title a few times out of pure confusion, but maybe that act alone will have emotional benefits. The paper’s authors assert that SARAH reconsuming an COYNE old favorite work changes our menColumnist tal capacity for experiencing our own emotions. In other words, picking up the same book over and over is good for our mental health. On the first read-through, we’re merely following the story’s events and action, but subsequent readings provoke a renewed chance to feel things and learn about our responses to those feelings. It’s a guilty pleasure of the best sort because we needn’t actually feel guilty. My curiosity about rereading got me thinking about one of the first times my oldest child fell in love with a book. It was a board book about an angel who perched atop a family’s Christmas tree and snuck around at night spreading magic. We read the book so much that its cardboard edges became

like cloth, soft and folded. By the time she was 3, she had the entire thing memorized; there’s a video floating around in our possession of her sitting at the kitchen table, speaking the words in the exact right order, turning the pages at the exact right moment, matching the same inflections and emphasis I’d always used when reading it aloud. She may as well have been reading the letters and paragraphs herself. The video is precious, but in truth, I started to hate that book. It was the same with a tattered copy of “Bambi” she loved; we read them on repeat for what felt like years before she would allow a diversion. But if adults get some benefit from reconsuming an old favorite book, what must it be like for kids, whose brains are so busily growing? Repeatedly hearing the same books and rhymes is nothing short of a necessity for children, it seems. The repetition of a favorite text helps little ones get ready to speak, to understand speech patterns and inflection, to pick up on emotional cues in language, to grow their working vocabulary. It allows them to observe the connections between words and

pictures in stories, which encourages them begin to make predictions and gain confidence about their comprehension. And all of that happens before they’re even ready to read words themselves! When they finally do put their pointer finger to the page and read a story by themselves, repetition is still as important as before. In the beginning, our kids are plodding through a mountain of words, just trying to be sure they’re making the correct sounds, but on a second or fifth or 10th pass, they’re picking up more and more bits of information, more data to help them understand the topic, more illumination of the emotion or conflict or solution, more comfort in the familiar, which — again and always — leads to more confidence in their ability and comprehension. This phase, for two-thirds of my kids so far, has been the Dr. Seuss phase. They’ve memorized meandering chunks of “One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish” that have left them rolling with laughter and beaming with pride. And if you’ve ever listened to a kindergartner slog through the book, you might already know that it feels like a yearslong purgatory. Chances are, it will be yearslong,

what with the developmentally appropriate tendency toward repetition. But all of that repetition — which is important for developing the speed and fluency necessary to go it alone — finally signals the start of something very, very good: independent reading. These are the years your kids might still fall back on repeated readings of old favorites, but you’ll be free to snuggle up with “Emma” and a blanket while they page through a taped-together copy of “Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone” that’s been read no fewer than 11 times in the past four years. At the end of it all, I’m more convinced than ever that diving back in to a favorite story is as beneficial as — or maybe more so than — branching out into new subjects. There will always be more and newer books to consume. But there will never be any experience that can match the steady comfort (and proven mental health benefits) of going back to an old favorite.

herding animals aren’t interested in catching or retrieving prey. They’re rewarded by the stalk. And a big plus: They don’t bark during the chase. Eight-year-old Gayle is helping Swickard train 3-year-old Rebel, who’ll become top dog when Gayle is retired. For now, Rebel is getting schooled in the traditional Scottish commands used for border collies, a process that can take two to three years. “Lie down” doesn’t mean lie down; it means stop what you’re doing. “Away” means go right. “Come by” means go left. “Walk up” means move toward the flock. “Easy” means slow down. And a sound that’s part “sh-sh-sh” and part clicks means go faster. On a typical day, Swickard can travel from the airport to the Country Club Plaza to an office park in Leawood and spots in between. And back again. The Kansas City Parks and Recreation Department is a big client, as are some major area real estate development companies and office parks. Geese are particularly attracted in the winter months to grass that has stayed the greenest, making chemically treated lawns and golf courses prime targets. To get a flock to move, Swickard will visit the same spot every day for a week, staggering times so that the geese aren’t condi-

tioned, say, to a regular 7 a.m. upset. “Geese are smart enough,” he said. “They’ll learn to move away just at that time, and then come back when they know you won’t be there. The key is to vary when the dog appears.” Eventually, the ﬂock understands that a certain foraging spot isn’t a safe haven and moves somewhere else. According to the Humane Society of the United States, geese pair off in late winter and tend to use the same nesting sites year after year. Now through March is prime time to keep geese moving if the goal is to prevent their spring nesting at a particular location. The society approves “harassing or scaring the geese to teach them the site is not safe.” And if nesting does occur (generally between late March and early May), it says people can addle the eggs to prevent hatching. Swickhard has “nuisance wildlife control” permits from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, required in Missouri, and a state-required permit in Kansas that allows him to shake, oil, freeze or puncture eggs to keep them from hatching. Permits also are required if he cages and moves a goose family to another location — a process, he said, that hasn’t proved to be very effective.

FROM 1C

Again, my science and tech knowledge is lacking so maybe this isn’t a legitimate concern. But here’s a legit concern: How does a modern parent who hands out a weekly allowance for household chores decide what to pay for a self-making bed? Does the kid get a dollar for tapping his ﬁnger? “Go make your bed” has been a mother’s secret weapon for generations. Growing up, I always had to make my bed and clean my room before any fun social outings, such as miniature golf with the boys from Wednesday night prayer meeting. Oh, gee. I just realized that I’ve added two new personal standards this week. “Laziest” and “most pathetic teen ever.”

companionship, she’s beginning to show signs of sadness while inside her paddock. “She will howl,” Marsh said. “It will be bedtime, and she will howl and cry. She wants someone to play with her, to run with her; she craves it. When she sees you, she’s happy. But if you catch her, and she doesn’t know it, you can see she’s just really sad.” Because Olivia has been sponsored by one of FFAA’s volunteers, her adoption fee is just $45. “She’s just a really sweet girl,” Marsh said. Marsh used those same words — “really sweet girl” — to describe a domestic short-hair kitten named Astrid. What makes Astrid stand out more than anything else is her coloring — she is a nearly full tortoiseshell, the ﬁrst we’ve previewed in this column. Also called “torties,” they combine two colors other than white, either closely mixed or in dominate patches. In Astrid’s case, it’s black mixed with a unique brownish-tan around the eyes and mouth and chest, with the ends of her paws dusted in white. Dating back to Celtic times, tortoiseshell cats have been perceived to bring good fortune into their homes. They also tend to have a rather distinct personality, sometimes referred to as “tortitude.” But Astrid is all traditional when it comes to what she truly craves from humans. “She loves cuddling,” Fox said. “She just loves hanging out with the others cats, and she doesn’t know a stranger.” Astrid was brought to the FFAA shelter last April, when she was just 6 weeks old, along with her mother and four siblings. All four of her brothers and sisters have found new homes; she remains at the shelter with her mother. While it would be sweet to see both mother and daughter leave together to the same home, Astrid can just as easily go solo. In fact, thanks to a sponsorship, her adoption fee is just $23. She is spayed, house-trained and good with other cats. To adopt either Astrid or Olivia, visit the shelter at 11281 Mo-86 in Neosho, call 417-592-2512, or visit the shelter’s popular Facebook page or website at www.ffaaneosho.org. Also, Fox wanted to pass along that the shelter is currently looking for a full-time animal care coordinator. If interested, email resumes to director. ffaaneosho@gmail.com or give the shelter a call.

My worry here is that I’d pre-set the bed-making time, then oversleep one day and be smothered by my own duvet.

TEACHER: Turbulent childhood inspires life of helping others FROM 1C Mrs. Secrest lit up when Hastings entered the room, she recalled. She remembered thinking Mrs. Secrest’s smile was genuine because her eyes twinkled. “She said, ‘I’m so happy you are here and you are part of my classroom!’” Hastings said. For the rest of the semester, Mrs. Secrest made sure to tell Hastings that she was valued. For the ﬁrst time, Hastings experienced what “being valued” felt like. It was a delicious feeling that would never leave her. Hastings mentioned this story during her acceptance speech at the Pittsburg State University College of Education’s fall 2016 awards ceremony in December. She’d won the Distinguished Service Award for Teaching. The kids in Hastings’ classroom at Baxter Springs High School are learning disabled, emotionally disturbed or borderline “intellectually deﬁcit.” As a young kid in Scotland, Hastings said she never would have imagined that one day she would become an award-winning teacher. After all, she was the kid cleaning herself up with paper towels in the school bathroom, sometimes washing her hair in the sink and then sticking it beneath a hand dryer.

Her mother and stepfather were alcoholics. She was emotionally, physically and sexually abused throughout her childhood. “Of the kids, I was the truly dumb one,” Hastings said she’d been repeatedly told over the years. Yet she’d always gravitate toward school. “It was our safe place,” Hastings said. As soon as she was 18, she married her high school sweetheart, finally able to escape her childhood home. After her first marriage crumbled, she decided to go back to school because she wanted to get a job that would let her help kids who grew up just like her. She received an associate’s degree in criminal justice from Labette Community College. Don, Hastings’ second and current husband, had to point out her name on the program when Hastings’ mother couldn’t find it listed among the graduates. “She said, ‘Oh my gosh, that can’t be her. She’s with the smart people,’” Hastings recalled. Hastings spent a few years working as a case worker with the Kansas Social and Rehabilitation Office, which is now called the Department for Families and Children. Sometimes, she would stay with a child until 10 p.m., waiting for their foster parent to pick

them up, she said. “I couldn’t be a foster parent because it killed me to let them go back,” Hastings said. Her calling to become a teacher was divined one day during a shift as a paraprofessional at the junior high her children attended. The bell rang, and kids poured into the hallway. “I got this overwhelming peace that, ‘You’re home. This is your home,’” Hastings said. After work, she told Don, “I think God wants me to be a teacher.” With positive support from her family, she was able to overcome two battles: tough coursework and a tougher skepticism that her intelligence wasn’t up to par. At age 39, she received a bachelor’s degree in elementary education from PSU. She had a 3.94 grade-point average. Still, the principal who wanted to hire her really needed a special education teacher. So Hastings went back to PSU to earn her master’s degree. Hastings said her experiences growing up have helped her relate to her students on a more personal level. It’s also helped her become a better and more thorough teacher. For example, when students stay after school until the last possible moment, she com-

pletely understands. So she calls her husband to inform him that it’s going to be a late night so she can stay with them. Or when one of her students is kicked out of his home by angry parents, she can sympathize with the student. Hastings couldn’t begin to count the number of times her stepfather kicked her and her siblings out of “his” house at 2, 3 or 4 a.m., with nowhere to go. Still, words such as “dumb,” “idiot” and “stupid” aren’t tolerated inside her classroom. “When we have a subject we are not good at, we just have to work harder at it. That does not make you dumb,” she said. “We all struggle.” Paraprofessional Amy Sanell, who has worked closely with Hastings for the past four years, said students know they can come to Hastings to talk or for help, even after graduation. “She really cares,” Sanell said. “She’s very passionate about what she does.” One of her students, a senior, said even though he was a “bad person getting into trouble, getting all C’s,” Mrs. Hastings made him “a better man.” Similar sentiments can be found scattered throughout the dozens of letters and thank-you notes Hastings

PETS

keeps inside her desk. She’ll silently read them for inspiration during the dark days when she feels like she’s not making much of a difference in her students’ lives. “I would love my classroom to be the classroom that Mrs. Secrest gave for me as a student,” she said in a low voice, as though revealing a secret desire. In sharing her story, Hastings hopes to help those who have had a “crappy childhood.” She said she would love them to understand that being successful and happy in life is completely in the realm of possibility, even if the circumstances don’t seem like it at the moment. “We don’t get to choose our parents,” Hastings said. “We can only choose our adulthood.” Hastings has come a long way since her second grade days in Mrs. Secrest’s classroom. Her home in Baxter Springs is big and open — after a life of living in tight quarters, she said she can’t stand clutter. It’s the best house the formerly homeless teacher has ever lived in. “And I would give it up tomorrow if I could help somebody else. I just would because ... it’s a house,” Hastings said, her voice cracking. “You can live anywhere. Including a bus.”

Danielle Zamarripa, of Home Depot, shows U.S. Army veteran Fred L. Reeves a new refrigerator Thursday. The refrigerator was stocked with food provided by Dierbergs as Reeves’ renovated home was revealed in Pine Lawn, Mo. North County Police Cooperative ofﬁcers joined Home Depot Employees and Beyond Housing representatives in the project, funded by a $5,000 Home Depot grant. Furniture was donated by Best Home Furnishings and the Society of THE ASSOCIATED PRESS St. Vincent de Paul. Plumbing labor was donated by Local 562 Plumbers and Pipeﬁtters.

Police officers rehabilitate veteran’s home PINE LAWN, Mo. (AP) — Officers from the North County Police Cooperative didn’t have a search warrant for Fred Reeves’ house Monday, but they went in anyway. Once inside, they found the 65-year-old disabled veteran just as they suspected: in desperate need of home repairs.. In addition to the dilapidated state of his home’s walls, floors and ceiling, Reeves had two broken stoves and no working refrigerator. He did have a deep freezer, a microwave and a single hot plate — meaning he could prepare only frozen meals, and he had nowhere to keep milk chilled. The officers armed themselves with painting gear, tools and drywall mud. And they planted a Dumpster in Reeves’ driveway. By the afternoon, the officers, who volunteered on their day off, felt confident that they would have the renovation of the Pine Lawn resident’s home complete by Thursday. Their chief, Tim Swope, coordinated the mission with a friend, Danielle Zamarripa, who oversees projects for veterans for Home Depot. The north St. Louis County nonprofit Beyond Housing applied for the grant from Home Depot,

where to turn. He contacted Reeves’ friend and neighbor, Jay McAllister, a Vietnam Navy veteran whom Epps knew. McAllister recommended Reeves for the project. Epps said the project has taught him a new lesson in policing even after a career spanning 40 years. “I always thought of community policing as, ‘Get out of your car, walk in Fred Reeves the neighborhood, maybe bounce a basketball with Veteran some kids,’ but this really goes far beyond where I suffers from seizures and ever thought community has a bad knee, was a bit policing would go,” he said. overwhelmed by it all. He Swope said he hopes the helped scrape away the paint that was peeling from work on Reeves’ home is just the first of many such his ceilings and walls even though the officers told him projects for his department.

which awarded $5,000 toward the project. The amount is expected to cover new appliances, countertops, laminate flooring and cabinets for Reeves, but the need has already grown. Once the officers arrived, Reeves’ furniture showed its wear. As they tried to move it, he decided to throw it away. And, as with many home improvement projects, more problems surfaced as the work began. But word spread quickly in the community. By Monday afternoon, Pine Lawn Mayor Terry Epps had an agreement from Local 562 Plumbers and Pipefitters to fix years of neglected plumbing, which had left Reeves’ toilet nearly falling through the floor boards and his kitchen sink in need of replacement. The unexpected work will likely add about $1,000 to the price of the renovation. A Holiday Inn agreed to put Reeves in a room while his home is under construction this week. And the furniture? Swope said he’s confident one of his officers or Home Depot volunteers will find a solution, given all that has fallen into place already for this project — the first of its kind for his department and the only one involving police officers of which Zamarripa is aware.

‘Freak of nature’ Buck harvested near Carthage makes the record books BY KOBY LEVIN klevin@joplinglobe.com

ARTHAGE, Mo. — It’s ofﬁcial: Pat Snyder, a Carthage business owner, tracked a buck all the way from his motion-activated trail cameras to the record books. Its antlers scored high enough to earn Snyder’s buck a place among the largest trophies ever taken in the United States and to make it one of a kind — the only deer in Missouri history shot with a recurve bow to make the national hunting register maintained by hunting club Boone and Crockett. “For a deer to make the Boone and Crockett record book, they are a freak of nature,” said Kirk Kelso, who measured the antlers for the club. To develop antlers of that scale, he said, a buck works against the odds. He must live an abnormally long time to express unusual genes for antler size. Each year in Missouri, a 500,000 hunters take more than 250,000 deer. Kelso owns North 43 Guns and Gear, a Joplin outﬁtter, and has led hunts across North America. He said the buck, which likely weighed about 250 pounds, ranks among the largest trophies he’s seen. It is one of only two deer to make the record books since he began working as a measurer in Joplin in 2010. In measuring the antlers, Kelso accounted both for the large, sweeping branches and a thicket of smaller growths emerging from around the buck’s forehead.

On a hunt with his father, Levi Snyder (above left), and his son, also named Levi Snyder, Carthage resident Pat Snyder harvested a record deer (below) using a recurve bow. Recurve bows are less powerful than weapons traditionally GLOBE | LAURIE SISK used in taking record game.

‘It was by far my best deer ever, and the way the hunt went, it was really cool. It happened like it should. The hunt was good. The shot was good — he was a magniﬁcent, majestic animal, and he went down the right way.’ Pat Snyder | Carthage hunter who harvested record deer

Keep ethical shots in mind The night air was nippy, and countless stars danced in the pitch-black sky. Wind was at a standstill — a rarity in the Midwest. With the great outdoors so quiet and serene, I could have heard a pin drop on the crispy leaves of the forest floor. Every sense of my being was soaking it all in. All was well in my world. Some 20 minutes before dawn, all heck broke loose when an owl hooted. Another KEITH owl immediately COSTLEY answered its call. Then another owl Columnist sounded off. And another and another and another. In less than 30 seconds, owls were creating havoc in all directions. Then one perched only a few feet above me, hooted as I was sitting on the ground at the base of a red oak tree. I all but jumped out of my skin. My heart pounded out of my chest, and my breathing raced.

Rising summer stars, trout events signal end of winter According to ancient accounts, Orion was killed by a scorpion sent by the gods as punishment for his hubris, the great hunter having boasted that he could kill anything. The other morning, I observed the constellation Scorpius rising low in the southern sky just before dawn, rising just as Orion is setting, part of an eternal cosmic chase. Scorpius is easily found, set off by a line of stars advancing ahead of Antares, the red supergiant whose name literally translates as “rival of Mars,” referring to its brilliance and color. In truth, Mars, which is about half the size of Earth, would be no match for Antares, a ﬁrst-mag-

nitude star that is nearly 900 times the size of our own sun. Also rising in the east just before dawn are three stars — Deneb, Altair and Vega — that form a prominent triANDY angle pattern that, OSTMEYER while not an ofﬁcial constellation, is an easily recognized Columnist asterism. It’s about this time every year that I beginning scanning the predawn heavens for their arrival because both Scorpius and the three-star triangle signal the coming end of winter and the arrival of warmer weather and longer days.

In fact, the three-star asterism is known as the Summer Triangle. Both will be prominent features of the night sky in the summer, and this time of year, when it seems summer can’t get here fast enough, at least the heavens are signaling that the wait won’t be much longer. Both signals also remind me that something else is approaching: Opening Day of trout season come March 1. I’ve spent many an Opening Day driving to Roaring River to report on the event (and ﬁsh), watching the stars rise as I drive. While you still have to wait a month for the ﬁshing, there are a couple of trout “appetizers” in coming weeks that will tide you

over until March 1. The Missouri Department of Conservation will hold its annual “Introduction to Trout Fishing” class from 6:30 to 8 p.m. on Wednesday, Feb. 15, at the Wildcat Glades Conservation & Audubon Center in Joplin’s Wildcat Park. I attended one of these with my sons a few years ago, and we got some great tips, even though we have been regulars at Roaring River for years. It’s worth going. You’ll learn about locations to ﬁsh for trout in Southwest Missouri, equipment, basic ﬁshing methods, lure selection, and how to handle, clean and cook your catch. Call 417-629-3423 to register. The class is for adults and children older than 7.

If you’re a fan of Bennett Spring State Park, you might also consider the Bennett Spring trout fishing pre-season meeting, set for 7 to 8:30 p.m. on Thursday, Feb. 16, at the Bennett Room, 11798 Highway 64, between the park entrance and Lebanon. Bennett Spring Hatchery staff will present information about the upcoming 2017 trout fishing season, discuss hatchery and park improvements and park events as well as fishing on the Niangua River. For more information, call 417532-4418, ext. 1062.

OUR VIEW

‘A fool and his money are soon elected.’

Welcome news

Will Rogers American humorist

e’re heartened by news that a Springfield developer has plans to rehabilitate the once handsome but now shabby Olivia Apartments. The building at the northwest corner of Fourth Street and Moffet Avenue has been vacant for years. The newest thing about it is the plywood that replaced the broken glass in the Olivia’s windows and front doors. But don’t see the building as it is. See it as it was. Look at pictures of the Colonial Revival building from 1906, when it was completed. The Olivia was a stately presence with stained glass windows, a marbled lobby and a 6,000-square-foot ballroom on its top floor. Scott Tillman, of Tillman Redevelopment in Springfield, hopes to show us the building as it can be. He acquired the Olivia and some surrounding property on Jan. 9. Tillman has done a dozen historic redevelopment projects in Springfield and elsewhere, and he said he has “a passion for historic buildings.” He told the Globe, “I think this property is very, very important to the city of Joplin. It’s very pretty; we’re excited to be involved with it, but we don’t have a solid plan yet.” What the future will be for the building remains to be seen. Tillman said it could take a few months to come up with a plan, noting he’s still assessing damage to the Olivia, inside and out, from years of neglect, and exploring incentives. “We just want to make sure we take our time and get it right, get a plan that will work for the property, work for the city of Joplin and work for the neighborhood,” he said. The Olivia is an important connection to Joplin’s past, designed by the same Joplin architect — Austin Allen — who did the Elks Club Lodge at Fourth Street and Pearl Avenue; St. Peter’s Catholic Church at Eighth Street and Pearl Avenue; the United Hebrew Congregation, Seventh Street and Sergeant Avenue; and the Newman Mercantile Building at Sixth and Main streets, which is now Joplin’s City Hall. “Nothing more elegant, more stylish, more convenient has yet been erected in Joplin,” the Globe reported when the Olivia opened 111 years ago. That it can be so again is our hope.

Go to JOPLINGLOBE.COM to cast your vote. PREVIOUS POLL RESULTS: On Wednesday, President Trump promised “immediate construction” would begin on the border wall, and said Mexico would pay the U.S. back for the cost, though he offered no speciﬁcs. Instead, he would use money already in the Department of Homeland Security account that amounts to a small down payment. Then it’s up to the Congress to come up with $12 billion to $15 billion more, according to an estimate offered by Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., on Thursday from a GOP issues retreat in Philadelphia. Would you support building such a wall if the United States paid for it? YES: 49 percent. NO: 51 percent. TOTAL VOTES: 229.

Verse

Wilson, Obama offer lesson for new president T

his year is not even through the end of its first month, and it’s already shaping up to be a larger-than-normal chapter in future history books — partly because of the inauguration of one Donald J. Trump and what his personality and policies will entail in the coming months and partly because of the end of a presidency that pretty much ensures that 2017 will be one continuous “cleanup on aisle four.” Anyone who was hoping that candidate Trump would become a reserved and restrained President Trump was hoping for what never was and what never will be. Love him or hate him, Trump is what he is, and he ain’t going to change. To his critics, he’s the worst rogue to ever occupy the Oval Office; to his supporters, he’s the businessman who represents America’s last chance to restore the balance of power between the people who pay the bills and the bureaucrats and politicians who create them. After eight years of pretty much having its way as Obama gabbed and golfed his way through the presidency, the Washington bureaucracy is in nothing short of shock right now. In just this first week, the level of activity coming out of 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. is at a pace not seen since LBJ dreamed up his Great Society initiatives, and it shows no sign of easing up any time soon. But as uncertain as 2017 may be to us living through it here in the present, the year in front of us also marks two milestones in our history that

should never be forgotten. This year marks the centennial anniversary of America’s entry into World War I and from last Dec. 7 to GEOFF Sept. 2, 2020, every day CALDWELL forward from here will mark Columnist a date that 75 years earlier saw that “greatest generation” embroiled in World War II. A short recap of the year that was unfolding a century ago: • JANUARY 1917 arrived with a president who as a candidate the previous year had run on the slogans “He kept us out of war” and, ironically, “America ﬁrst,” preparing his countrymen to enter that same war. • THE CONTRAPTION that the Wright Brothers had invented just 13 years earlier was now outﬁtted with machine guns, and swarms of them were buzzing around like gnats in the skies above the trenches on the Western Front. • THE USS ARIZONA, named in honor of America’s newest and 48th state to enter our union, was the pride of the U.S. Navy. Gen. John J. “Blackjack” Pershing was bringing his troops back to the U.S. side of our southern border after spending the last 10 months in northern Mexico trying to capture revolutionary Pancho Villa for his attack on Columbus, New Mexico, and the Camp Furlong Army post that killed eight soldiers and 10 civilians during a nighttime raid the previous March. While President Woodrow

Wilson’s stated goal of capturing Villa was not achieved, the expedition was spun as a success and would ultimately prove valuable as a training exercise for the action to come when the American Expeditionary Force was deployed to Europe to break the stalemate and bring an end to the war. Yet in private, Pershing confided to family and friends that had it not been for the restrictions that America’s first “academic” president (Wilson had been a college professor and president of Princeton University) had imposed on the mission, he and his men would have succeeded in bringing Villa to justice. A century later, those same sentiments are echoed by today’s military commanders bemoaning the Obama administration’s rules of engagement that limited their ability to fight ISIS as needed. Two presidents — a century of time between them yet ironically exactly the same. Both were heralded as the smartest of their day, yet both were blinded by egos and ignored the timeless fact that mission success still boils down to the commander in chief and the latitude he gives his commanders in the field to adapt and deploy as needed. Whatever else President Trump may be, he is at least a man who intends to empower rather than hinder our men and women in the field. And no matter what century we’re in, that’s good news for us and bad news for those who wish us harm.

growth is always a challenge,” replacing youthful simplicities with adult complexities. Today, college involves the “pampering of students as customers,” particularly by grade inflation in a GEORGE context of declining WILL academic rigor: A recent study showed “A” to be the most Columnist commonly awarded grade, 30 percent more frequent than in 1960. And a 2011 University of Chicago study found that 45 percent of students said that in the previous semester none of their courses required more than 20 pages of writing and 32 percent had no class that required more than 40 pages of reading in a week. “Unearned praise and hollow successes,” Nichols says, “build a fragile arrogance in students that can lead them to lash out at the first teacher or employer who dispels that illusion, a habit that carries over into a resistance to believe anything inconvenient or challenging in adulthood.” A habit no doubt intensified when adults in high places speak breezily of “alternative facts.” “Rather than disabuse students of their intellectual solipsism,” Nichols says, “the modern university re-

inforces it,” producing students given to “taking offense at everything while believing anything.” Many colleges and universities, competing for tuition dollars “too often drawn thoughtlessly from an inexhaustible well of loans,” market a “college experience” rather than an education. The experience “turns into ﬁve and, increasingly, six [years].” Nichols notes that “the fragility of 21st-century students” results from “the swaddling environment of the modern university” that “infantilizes students” who demand “trigger warnings” and “safe spaces.” Much attention has been given to the non-college-educated voters who rallied to Trump. Insufﬁcient attention is given to the role of the college miseducated. They, too, are complicit in our current condition because they emerged from their expensive “college experiences” neither disposed nor able to conduct civil, informed arguments. They are thus disarmed when confronted by political people who consider evidence, data and reasoning to be mere conveniences and optional. For all the talk in high places about emancipating the many from “the elites,” political philosopher Walter Berns was right: The question always is not whether elites will govern but which elites will. And a republic’s challenge is to increase

Proverbs 17:5

CONGRESS shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

An excess of intellectual emptiness is upon us ASHINGTON — In 2013, a college student assigned to research a deadly substance sought help via Twitter: “I can’t find the chemical and physical properties of sarin gas someone please help me.” An expert at a security consulting firm tried to be helpful, telling her that sarin is not gas. She replied, “yes the [expletive] it is a gas you ignorant [expletive]. sarin is a liquid & can evaporate ... shut the [expletive] up.” Tom Nichols, professor at the U.S. Naval War College and the Harvard Extension School, writing in The Chronicle Review, says such a “storm of outraged ego” is an increasingly common phenomenon among students who, having been taught to regard themselves as peers of their teachers, “take correction as an insult.” Nichols relates this to myriad intellectual viruses thriving in academia. Carried by undereducated graduates, these viruses infect the nation’s civic culture. Soon the results include the presidential megaphone being used to amplify preposterous assertions, e.g., that upward of 5 million illegal votes were cast in 2016. A presidential minion thinks this assertion is justified because it is the president’s “long-standing belief.” “College, in an earlier time,” Nichols writes, “was supposed to be an uncomfortable experience because

‘Whoever mocks the poor shows contempt for their Maker; whoever gloats over disaster will not go unpunished.’

the likelihood that the many will consent to governance by worthy elites. So, how is our republic doing? What is most alarming about the president and his accomplices in the dissemination of factoids is not that they do not know this or that. And it is not that they do not know what they do not know. Rather, it is that they do not know what it is to know something. The republican form of government rests on representation: The people do not decide issues, they decide who will decide. Who, that is, will conduct the deliberations that “refine and enlarge” public opinion (Madison, Federalist 10). This system of filtration is vitiated by a plebiscitary presidency, the occupant of which claims a direct, unmediated, almost mystical connection with “the people.” Soon, presidential enablers, when challenged about their employer’s promiscuous use of “alternative facts,” will routinely use last week’s “justification” of the illegal voting factoid: It is the president’s “long-standing belief,” so there. In his intellectual solipsism, he, too, takes correction as an insult. He resembles many of his cultured despisers in the academy more than he or they realize.

SUNDAY, JANUARY 29, 2017

Inauguration means return of optimism “I

t was a Trump speech,” said Beth Lesser, a Donald Trump supporter from Greenville, South Carolina, after listening to the president’s inaugural address on the Mall. “He hasn’t changed at all — and I don’t want him to.” Lesser was one of the thousands who traveled a long way to come to the inauguration, and who loved what they heard. They didn’t come to hear soaring rhetoric from Donald Trump. They didn’t come to hear Trump try to sound like Marco Rubio or, God forbid, Barack Obama. They came to hear Trump sound like himself. That’s what they got. And to them, Inauguration Day was a day of hope. “It brings some hope that we’re going to have a new direction for the country, that we’re going to create a real economic recovery,” said Rick Fischer, who organized for Trump in Fairfax County, Virginia. “I think this really restores our country to its place in the world as far as a leader is concerned,” said Patrick O’Neal, of Atlanta. “To me, it means the future of America,” said Emily Ovecka, who volunteered for Trump in Philadelphia. “It means the return of optimism,” said Phil Bell, of Vienna, Virginia. “We’ve had years and years where I personally, and I think a lot of people, have felt simply like we didn’t have an opportunity.” Talking to people on the Mall was like entering a universe entirely apart from that of the political commentariat. In the pundits’ world, Trump delivered a pessimistic and foreboding address, one sure to

YOUR VIEWS Welfare programs not in nation’s interest This is in response to a letter by Sandie Morgan (Globe, Jan 23.): “Promote the general welfare” is a true phrase from our Constitution, but it doesn’t mean government is supposed to provide health insurance for people, nor does it mean Americans must buy health insurance. I have long suspected that people who support such programs are socialist but are unaware they are socialist. These misguided people would support the idea that welfare is an acceptable way and that food pantries are a wonderful expression of goodness and continue to feed and clothe the same individuals and families time after time. The true sleeping giants wonder why these benevolent groups don’t teach these people how to plant, raise and maintain a garden and save the harvest so they might feed themselves and their families in winter time. One has but to look at the leaders of these people to realize that what they propose for others they do not propose for themselves. They do not participate in

Advice to the press: Don’t get mad, get nosy F

acing the looming realities of President Donald Trump, media outlets have been chewing nervously on an unusual question: How do we cover this guy? Of course, although one would be hard-pressed to name any president who has made the reporter’s life easy, none until now have been known to taunt the press — and urge their supporters to join them — as eagerly and unpredictably as Trump has done on Twitter. But the chilliness in Trump’s media relations almost iced over amid reports a few days before his swearing-in that press secretary Sean Spicer was considering pulling news media offices out of the White House. After reporters put up a howl, Trump said in the friendly confines of “Fox and Friends” he decided not to move the press briefings, even though he still wanted more room to invite more reporters. The reporters, he said in a mocking tone, will “be begging for a much larger room very soon. You watch.” Ha, ha. What anti-media mischief will he try next? He’s banned some news organizations from covering

him. He has openly praised the idea of loosening libel laws to make it easier to sue media. He has ﬂouted the norms of regular pool reporting and CLARENCE news conferences. He has herded his PAGE traveling reporters into a pen at his Columnist rallies and jeered them as “scum,” “absolutely dishonest” and other choice Trumpisms, just to thrill the crowd. Such antics only underscore the goofy relationship between Trump and the media that Salena Zito captured so well in her Trump coverage for The Atlantic: “(The) press takes him literally but not seriously; his supporters take him seriously but not literally.” Zito described an old and vastly underappreciated quirk of human nature. Journalists are conditioned to value facts as closely tied to one’s credibility. Trump talks like a stand-up comedian or the family yarn-spinner. He mangles facts in a way that sounds to

willing ears like it has touched a deeper truth. So how, the media community asks itself, should reporters cover the presidency of Donald Trump who, as the Columbia Journalism Review recently observed, operates like a media organization himself? I think that, despite the new bells and whistles of this digital age, the fundamentals of covering presidents or any other public servant still apply. One, we should be adversarial without being hostile — even as the newsmaker and his or her followers are calling us “scum” and other unkind things. Sticks and stones may break our bones but we have deadlines to meet. Two, dodge his dodges. Trump has been promoting his name as a valuable brand across multiple platforms since the 1970s. He is a master of distractions. Notice how he became agitated over the politics of Broadway’s “Hamilton” cast on a day when his angry tweets could take the spotlight away from his $25 million settlement of fraud charges by customers of Trump University.

story that’s most important, not just click-bait for eyeballs on the web. Three, it is not a “media conspiracy” for reporters to band together in pursuit of accountability from public ofﬁcials. When a president refuses to take an important question from one reporter, the next reporter should offer up the same question. Something close to that Sparticus-like uprising occurred in September. When Trump allowed only photographers, not reporters, on his “press” tour of his new Washington, D.C., hotel, major television networks refused to use the picNotice how his stubborn refusal tures or video That’s the spirit. Reporters are to take a question from CNN’s not obligated to give any more Jim Acosta in a live news conference took attention away from the free publicity to Trump’s hotel.

since the Cold War by the Ukraine crisis, war in Syria and allegations of Russian meddling in U.S. elections. Trump signed a presidential memorandum on the plan to defeat the Islamic State group Saturday, including in it the possibility of teaming up with “new coalition partners,” suggesting that pairing up with Russia on counterterrorism issues isn’t off the table. Trump was noncommittal about whether he was considering lifting the economic sanctions ahead of the call, telling reporters Friday: “We’ll see what happens. As far as the sanctions, very early to be talking about that.” In 2014, Russia annexed Ukraine’s Crimea region and backed separatists ﬁghting government forces in eastern Ukraine, drawing widespread condemnation in Europe and the United States. In response, sanctions were implemented against sectors of Russia’s econ-

omy, including ﬁnancial services, energy, mining and defense. The Obama administration also sanctioned people in Putin’s inner circle. Shortly before leaving ofﬁce, President Barack Obama also ordered sanctions on Russian spy agencies, closed two Russian compounds in the United States and expelled 35 diplomats that he said were really spies. These sanctions followed an assessment by U.S. intelligence that Moscow meddled in the 2016 election to help Trump become president. Trump’s tempered approach to U.S.-Russia relations has already raised concern among several European allies who believe keeping Russia in check is essential to regional security. British Prime Minister Theresa May, whose country — as part of the European Union — also has punished Russia for its provocations in Ukraine,

voiced the view of many in Europe, telling reporters in Washington on Friday: “We believe the sanctions should continue.” Vice President Mike Pence and other senior advisers joined Trump for the call with Putin, including his national security adviser, retired Gen. Michael Flynn, chief of staff Reince Priebus and senior strategist Steve Bannon. Trump also spoke on Saturday with the leaders of Japan, Germany, France and Australia. Two Republican senators — Arizona’s John McCain, chairman of the Armed Services Committee, and Ohio’s Rob Portman, a member of the Foreign Relations Committee — warned the White House about easing any punishments on Moscow and they pledged to turn the sanctions into law. “I hope President Trump will put an end to this speculation and reject such a reckless course,” McCain

said in a statement. “If he does not, I will work with my colleagues to codify sanctions against Russia into law.” Portman said lifting the sanctions “for any reason other than a change in the behavior that led to those sanctions in the ﬁrst place would send a dangerous message to a world already questioning the value of American leadership and the credibility of our commitments after eight years of Obama administration policies.” McCain has emerged as a frequent critic of Trump among Capitol Hill Republicans. He takes a dim view of trying to reset relations with Moscow and says Trump should remember that Putin is “a murderer and a thug who seeks to undermine American national security interests at every turn.” “For our commander in chief to think otherwise would be naive and dangerous,” McCain said.

BUCK: Carthage business owner calls record deer ‘magniﬁcent, majestic’ FROM 1D

Pat Snyder, of Carthage, took a record buck in November using a recurve bow. Recurve bows are less powerful than weapons traditionally used to kill record-setting deer. Snyder’s trophy buck measured at 1962/8.

The ﬁnal number — 1962/8 — was comfortably higher than the threshold of 190 for such “nontypical measurement,” a feat made all the more impressive because Snyder shot the buck with a recurve bow, a less powerful weapon than others have used to kill record-setting deer. For Snyder, a longtime outdoorsman, it was a dream hunt. He ﬁrst captured an image of the buck on a motion-activated trail camera in October, then a couple more times in subsequent weeks. “It was by far my best deer ever, and the way the

hunt went, it was really cool,” he said. “It happened like it should. The hunt was good. The shot was good — he was a magnificent, majestic animal, and he went down the right way.” That’s not to say that Nov. 14, 2016 — the day he took the buck northwest of Carthage — was the end of his hunting season. Snyder headed back into the field, maintaining the pursuit until the season closed Jan. 15. Snyder, who killed his first deer at age 12, fashions arrows using wild turkey feathers, a technique he learned from his father. He has taken 67 deer so far. He plans to hang the trophy above his fireplace.

can take shots that will result in a fast, clean kill. So what is an unethical shot? That’s an excellent question and a hotly-debated one as well. According to the Boone & Crockett Club, fair chase says that “one must attain and maintain the skills necessary to make the kill as certain and quick as possible.” To make ethical shots, a hunter must be proficient. Being proficient breeds confidence. Without one or the other, an ethical shot can’t be made. Along these lines, if you intend to harvest big game animals with a high-powered rifle at 500 yards, then you need to practice and become proficient at that distance. The same goes for the 700- and 900-yard shots that you see the big boys take on outdoor TV shows, particularly in the western states. And as many of you know, those types of long-distance shots are available in open areas of the Midwest as well. For me, attempting 500-yardplus shots at any big game species would be totally irresponsible. I haven’t practiced at those distances, nor do I care to. They would be “Hail Mary” shots at best. The odds of wounding an animal would increase — that is if I could hit it — and that shot could result in pain and suffering and no recovery. The objective is to get as close

My philosophy is this: If you question whether you should take a shot, don’t. As the old saying goes, ‘It’s better to be safe than sorry.’ as possible to your target before taking a shot. The closer you get, the better chance you’ll have at making a good shot. The farther you are from the animal when you shoot, the higher the odds that something out of your control will rear its ugly head. This is especially true when it comes to wind and animal movement. My self-imposed maximum shooting distance for harvesting deer is 350 yards. The conditions have to be perfect — little to no wind, a clear sight picture, a solid rest and an open ﬁeld. The animal must be calm and standing broadside. All of these conditions existed over a year ago when I dropped a nice 8-point northern Missouri buck in Nodaway County at 317 yards. Some ethical shooting tips to keep in mind: • TO BE PROFICIENT — regardless of weapon choice — you must practice, practice, practice. And when

you are tired of practicing, practice some more. Shooting must become second nature. • DON’T PUSH THE ENVELOPE. An ethical hunter knows the capability of his weapon and its effective shooting range. • DON’T FALL INTO THE TRAP of allowing your desire to kill an animal to overrule your better judgment. Hunting is not all about the kill. Attempting an unethical or questionable shot so the animal won’t get away is unacceptable on every level. • DON’T TAKE A SHOT because someone else tells you to take it. Think for yourself. You and you alone are responsible for the shots you take. When a projectile leaves the muzzle, there’s nothing you can do to get it to come back. So is there a magic number in yards that dictates an ethical or unethical shot? No, it’s not that black-and-white. My philosophy is this: If you question whether you should take a shot, don’t. As the old saying goes, “It’s better to be safe than sorry.” Always strive to err on the side of caution. As ethical hunters, we should not only take shots we’re prepared to make but be conﬁdent of delivering a quick and lethal hit as well. Anything less is unfair to the game we pursue.

ual-transmission 2016 Subaru Forester with 3,600 miles on it. When I park on a hill and put the car in first gear, it creeps downhill in increments, regardless whether it faces uphill or downhill. This also happens when I add the hand brake at a “reasonable” pull. To get it to not creep down the hill, I have to pull the brake handle almost vertical. This seems wrong, but the dealer where I bought the car says they can’t get it to lose position on a hill, and he tells me that engines these days have less compression. But my 2008 Subaru had even less compression than the Forester, and first gear held hills just fine, both forward and backward. Is this the new normal? I’ve been driving stick shifts for five decades, and this is my first experience with this issue in a new engine. — Poke Do you live on Lombard Street, Poke? Under normal conditions, if you put your transmission in first gear or reverse, there ought to be enough compression in a 2.5-liter engine to keep the car from rolling. Of course, if you’re on a steep hill, or you have 100 bowling balls in the back seat, the weight of the car can overcome the compression of the engine and cause the car to move. That’s why we have — wait for it — the parking brake! And if pulling the parking-brake lever all the way up stops the car from rolling, that’s exactly what you should do. Now, the parking brake may need to be adjusted. You can ask your dealer to check it for you. You also can chock the wheels by turning them toward the curb, which means the car would have to overcome both the inertia of the engine and the height of the curb to roll away. You also could try lassoing

the car to a tree. My other suggestion is to have the service manager come with you to where you park the car, and show him that it rolls. Even better, ask him to drive separately in another 2016 Forrester so that you can compare the two. If another new 2016 Forrester stays put, then I suppose your compression could be bad or your clutch could be slipping. But I find either of those possibility unlikely because (1) the car is brand new and you’d notice poor performance if the compression were bad, and (2) you’ve been driving stick shifts for five decades, and presumably haven’t burned out the clutch in 3,600 miles. On the other hand, if you’ve recently lent the car to your nephew, Leroy, a slipping clutch would be the first thing I’d check for. But I’m guessing this has mostly to do with where you park. You can try using reverse instead of first, as it often has a slightly taller gear ratio. But I think you’ll find that the ultimate solution is to make regular and firm use of the parking brake, Poke.

JOE HADSALL Features Editor

One of the great things about being a member of Generation X is how we have grown up right alongside video games. Almost the entire history of gaming has unfolded alongside our lives. The ﬁrst home systems offering “Pong” came out when we were toddlers. We have watched games progress through the years, becoming a visual metaphor of Moore’s Law. Consider a fantasy game where a knight ﬁghts a dragon. In 1979’s “Adventure,” the knight was a square on the screen. The dragon looked like a big duck, and the sword was a big arrow — only the point was dangerous, and it couldn’t be rotated, so to kill the dragon, you had to get to its right then ram it to the left. Almost 40 years later, Bethesda remastered “The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim” last year for current-generation consoles. It is a gorgeous, visually dazzling representation of a Nordic tundra-forest. The weapons are fantastic: A wide variety of swords and other weapons can be found or crafted. The dragons start out as fearsome beasts. Hearing their roars from a distance can strike fear in the heart of a new player. The change in details and

graphics, from “Adventure” to “Skyrim,” is like an artist starting out as Piet Mondrian then transforming into Andrew Wyeth. It’s like a chef learning how to make a grilled cheese sandwich, then only a few weeks later cooking a beef bourguignon that rivals the great Julia Childs. Millennials won’t get that same thrill. Sure, the 16-bit Super Nintendo or Genesis games they grew up with are still sufﬁciently pixelated and blocky. But they witnessed the decoration of the throne room — they didn’t watch the castle get built, like we did. No other generation will get to enjoy the thrill of vintage video gaming like us Gen Xers. No other generation feels the pull of nostalgia and history at the touch of a “Galaga” joystick. Retro gaming is a big source of escape and relaxation for me. My mom and dad looked at pictures and watched movies as a salve. Me? I ﬁnd an old, pixelated friend. Lately, that friend is a familiar plumber.

MARIO LOW-REZ Needing a respite from a particularly challenging week, I sought out an old copy of “Super Mario 64” and dived into a game that captivated me. “Super Mario 64” was a revolutionary step for gaming. Released in 1996, it was a launch title for the new Nintendo 64 system, which featured some impressive processing power and a unique analog joystick. The three-handled controller was a bit awkward: The left handle offered standard directional

No other generation feels the pull of nostalgia and history at the touch of a ‘Galaga’ joystick. pads, and the analog stick was in the middle. The right side featured standard Nintendo-style B and A buttons, neighbored by four yellow C buttons with a new function: camera control. More on that in a bit. “Super Mario 64” deviated from the traditional formula featured in the franchise’s ﬁght with Bowser. Instead of putting a challenge of mushroom-stomping levels, players guided Mario through 3-D open worlds and searched for stars hidden in them. Instead of a clear left-to-right direction, players had to explore and experiment. The open world approach was game-changing in many ways: Instead of ﬁrst-person shooters such as “Doom” and “Quake,” this one was set in third-person, meaning that the player always saw Mario on screen. The analog controller let players control his precise direction and speed. And the introduction of Latiku “broadcasting” Mario’s movements introduced the concept of controlling the “camera,” or point of view.

The game was unique for me because it came out when I was a starving college student. I wasn’t able to get an N64 of my own, so I played the game almost entirely at friends’ places or on demo models at retail stores. The only way I beat it was to encounter a demo model with a save point close enough to the final battle with Bowser. Replaying it this month has reminded me of many things: • HOW AMAZING THAT GAME WAS. Many parts of it still hold up, and there’s a tremendous amount of replay value. I’m currently sitting at 68 stars (you need 70 to get to the final battle), and I have barely played the courses in the castle’s upper floors. (Translation for people who have never played the game: I’ve been fully playing the early courses as completely as possible before moving on.) • HOW BRUTAL THOSE CAMERA CONTROLS ARE. “Uncharted” made me take pole-jumping and camera control for granted. There have been times I’ve tried to position myself and the camera, then make my jump, only to see Mario pull an Aaron Brooks and jump completely in the wrong direction to his death. I’ll play “Ratchet and Clank” games in the future with newfound appreciation. (Translation: Players had to learn to control both player and camera in these games, and it didn’t always go well.) • THE THRILL OF EXPLORATION. “Super Mario 64” wasn’t the only game to inspire this at the time — 1995’s “Descent” and 1996’s “Tomb Raider” also helped me find just as much excitement in

In art, questions of content are usually left to galleries 7

MARTA CHURCHWELL Arts columnist

During an exhibit opening at Spiva Center for the Arts a year back, I stood before a nude sketch, studying how exquisitely the artist had captured the anatomy. An acquaintance — a faithful Baptist — ambled up and studied the piece for a moment, then declared it disgusting. There’s no place for nude art in a community art center, he contended. I noted that there was no sexual connotation in the work and reminded him that many people consider the human body to be an art form. In art schools, including the art department at Missouri Southern, nudes are a routine part of study, I said. Anatomy is difﬁcult to capture on canvas, and any skill at it increases overall versatility, I explained. He scowled, shook his head and walked away. I didn’t get the light bulb to come on for him. But he should have known not to challenge a journalist about anything related to freedom of speech or expression. We’re vehement about protecting First Amendment rights. Censorship gets our hackles up.

That includes censorship of art. Art is about expression of ideas. It’s meant to be evocative, to draw differing points of view. U.S. Supreme Court Justice John Marshall Harlan II expressed this succinctly in a 1971 Supreme Court case when he said, “One man’s vulgarity is another man’s lyric.” The question of acceptable standards of decency in art has been a thorny debate for centuries. Even Michelangelo caused a stir over what is considered his greatest work: the painting of the fresco of the Sistine Chapel. Pope Daniele de Volterra declared the work to be unholy and immoral because of its depiction of naked souls meeting their otherworldly fates. Controversy related to censorship has regularly reared its head in recent history. Robert Mapplethorpe’s 1989 sexually explicit photography

Sure, I’ve seen political artwork at Spiva that offended me. But I realized that others may not have been similarly affected and we have no right to expect art to conform only to individual tastes.

exhibit was canceled before it even opened at the Corcoran Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., after overwhelming public outcry. Granted, it was overtly offensive, but Mapplethorpe intended to grab his audience by the shirt collar, and it was all about freedom of expression. Remember Salman Rushdie’s 1989 novel, “The Satanic Verses”? It was deemed blasphemous to Islam and banned by various countries around the world. Then, there was Pussy Riot, a Russian feminist punk rock band whose members were imprisoned in 2012 for a song protesting the support of Russian President Vladimir Putin by a Moscow cathedral where the band was performing. So how are we to determine exactly what imagery and content pushes the boundaries of acceptable art? Considering that the merit of art is inherently subjective, should it ever be censored? Court rulings have made it clear that art is not legally obscene just because it depicts nudity or contains a sexual theme. Work that focuses on violence is also protected unless it is directed at inciting violence or is likely to result in it. The 1971 Supreme Court decision in which Harlan made his insightful comment centered on exactly who the censor is. The court ruled that the Constitution limits government censorship of art, but private galleries have the right to their own standards of judgement.

3 • CARTHAGE, Mo. — “LOVE LANGUAGES” EXHIBITION, presented by artCentral, will be displayed at Hyde House, 1110 E. 13th St. The exhibit is a mixed exhibition featuring the original creations of members of the Joplin Regional Artists Coalition. Each piece is a unique valentine filled with joyful vitality and uplifting inspiration. The interpretations of love presented are dramatically varied: hearts, flowers and lovers; pets, passions and partners; friends, families and strangers; and more. An opening reception will be held from 6 to 8 p.m. Friday. The public is invited. Admission is free; donations are welcome. The exhibit is on display Feb. 3-19. Gallery hours: noon to 5 p.m. Friday and Saturday and 1 to 5 p.m. Sunday. Details: 417-358-4404. • THREE EXHIBITS are on display at Spiva Center for the Arts, 222 W. Third St. “The Reins: Paintings by Juan Kelly” is in the Main Gallery through Feb. 16. Juan Kelly was born in Limon, Costa Rica. He has exhibited work extensively throughout Europe, the United States and Latin America. His paintings make viewers consider the nature of reality and assumptions concerning it. An unlikely assemblage of animals populates the paintings, and Kelly uses archetypal imagery. “Exquisite Miniatures” by Wes and Rachelle Siegrist is in the Regional Gallery through Feb. 16. Wes and Rachelle Siegrist are a husband-and-wife team who capture the attention of viewers not with outstretched canvas but with miniature paintings so exquisitely crafted that they are often mistaken for tiny photographs. Their tiny treasures, as collectors often refer to them, typically measure fewer than 9 square inches and appear even more detailed when viewed under magnification. The third-grade Collaborative Project is in the Upstairs Gallery during January. Details: 417-623-0183. • THE COLLABORATIVE EXHIBIT “EVERYTHING IS SACRED, NOTHING IS SACRED AND OTHER MODERN ALLEGORIES” is on display in Spiva Art Gallery at Missouri Southern State University, 3950 E Newman Road. The exhibit is a collaboration between Indiana-based artists Quincy Owens and Luke Crawley. It showcases their complementary styles.

Family shatters ‘August: Orange County’ shows daughters dealing with sharp-tongued, grief-stricken mother BY JOE HADSALL jhadsall@joplinglobe.com

beneﬁt to the audience choice season at Joplin Little Theatre: The plays audience members selected have attracted some of the area’s best actors. “It’s a Pulitzer-winning script, so that says something,” said Todd Manley, director of the theater’s production of “August: Orange County.” “It’s a really strong character study about really strong women. It’s a really strong play that also shows the generation gap between families and

the differences in values and morals between generations.” Debuting on Broadway in 2007, the play is a black comedy by Tracy Letts that was adapted into a 2013 ﬁlm featuring an ensemble of heavyweight actors, including Meryl Streep, Julia Roberts, Benedict Cumberbatch, Ewan McGregor and others. Streep and Roberts were nominated for Academy Awards for their roles. The cast of the local production features acting veterans Linda Bailey, Lisa Green, Ashley Trotnic

and Ann Lile, among others. Manley said the actors are, for the most part, forgetting about that Oscar-nominated adaptation. “We encouraged everyone to quit watching the movie,” Manley said. “The ﬁlm loses a lot of the nuances. They can’t do the same things that actors can on stage. Even though everyone knows the ﬁlm, this is our production, and when it comes down to it, every actor plays those roles differently. That’s what I’m interested in.” The story centers around the sharp-tongued Violet, a recovering cancer patient and drug addict dealing with the disappearance, then death, of her poet husband. As her family unites for a funeral, a particularly violent dinner forces her three daugh-

ters and others to work on keeping Violet clean. Manley said it’s a story of stillness punctuated by a moment of violence that changes the story. If words were punches, none would be pulled, however — the play features a few moments where multiple conversations and arguments occur. Productions such as “August” are right in Manley’s wheelhouse as a director, he said. Rather than having actors hit marks and notes in a musical with technical precision, he prefers to coach an actor into exploring a role. “This is gritty and emotional,” Manley said. “(The plot) takes its toll on people, and that’s more of what draws me in, the real human experience.” Manley said his cast of actors

has also become a sort of family. Those relationships were on display Wednesday during a rehearsal. When Bailey fell down a little too hard and appeared to strike her head on stage, characters instantly broke to check on her, until she delivered a quick, “I’m ﬁne.” After the scene, Misty Hammer (who plays Violet Weston), a nurse, checked on Bailey for signs of a concussion. “That’s one of the greatest things this play has done for us,” Manley said. “It’s created an atmosphere where we may have a knock-down drag-out, but we can all still love each other. That’s what we want because that’s what families do.”

Mark Twain House hopes for boost from 1879 fairy tale ‘To him, this was nothing. He never wrote it because it came so easily. I don’t think it ever occurred to him that could have been a gold mine.’

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

HARTFORD, Conn. — Notes that Mark Twain jotted down from a fairy tale he told his daughters more than a century ago have inspired a new children’s book, “The Purloining of Prince Oleomargarine.” At the Mark Twain House and Museum in Hartford, there is excitement that the story could help introduce the writer to wider audiences — and provide a ﬁnancial lift for the nonprofit organization that curates the three-story Gothic Revival mansion where Twain raised his family. A researcher found the story in the archive of the Mark Twain Papers at the University of California at Berkeley. When the University of California Press passed on taking it to publication, the archive’s director, Bob Hirst, endorsed enlisting the Twain House as an agent in part because of ﬁnancial struggles the museum has had to overcome. “I don’t think it’s a secret they need funding,” Hirst said. “If it was going to make some money, which Mark Twain would certainly approve of, that house was a good place for it to go.” The Twain House connected the UC Press with DoubleDay

Cindy Lovell Former Twain House director

Visitors enter The Mark Twain House and Museum in 2008 in Hartford, Conn. Notes that Twain jotted down from a fairy tale he told his daughters more than a century ago when living in Hartford have inspired a new children’s book, “The Purloining of Prince Oleomargarine,” set to be published in September. The contract for the book was steered through the Mark Twain House and Museum in HartAP FILE ford as a way to provide a ﬁnancial lift for the museum.

Books for Young Readers, which hired an author and illustrator to turn Twain’s unﬁnished notes into the book to be published in September. The publisher and others involved declined to discuss the ﬁnancial terms. Amy Gallent, the Twain House’s interim executive director, said the museum has a

balanced budget and its ﬁnances are sound. Since cost overruns brought the museum to the brink of closing a decade ago, it has reported strong admissions numbers and state aid has helped with needed improvements. But Gallent said she understands the Twain House will receive royalties on book sales and she hopes

it is “incredibly successful.” The book tells the story of a boy who gains the ability to talk to animals by eating a ﬂower from a magical seed and then joins them to rescue a kidnapped prince. Winthrop University English professor John Bird was mining the Berkeley archive for a possible Twain cookbook in 2011 when he ﬂagged “Oleomargarine,” thinking it might be related to food. After reading over the 16 pages of Twain’s handwritten notes, he realized the manuscript was a story Twain apparently told his daughters in 1879 while the family visited Paris. The 152-page illustrated book, completed by Philip and Erin Stead, frames the narrative as a

story “told to me by my friend, Mr. Mark Twain.” The author, born Samuel Clemens in Missouri in 1835, lived with his family from 1874 to 1891 at the house in Hartford. Tours feature the home’s library and a discussion of the bedtime stories he would conjure there nightly for his three daughters. Cindy Lovell, who recently stepped down as the Twain House director and helped shepherd the book project, said the story is exceptional because Twain was not known to write down any of the thousands of stories he told his children. “To him, this was nothing. He never wrote it because it came so easily,” she said. “I don’t think it ever occurred to him that could have been a gold mine.” Lovell said the Twain House will beneﬁt ﬁnancially from the book, as will the UC Press and the Mark Twain Project, led by Hirst at Berkeley. In 2010, a Twain autobiography became an unexpected best-seller when it was published a century after his death, at the author’s request. Hirst said there are still other Twain works in the archive that could be published. “The pile is getting smaller and smaller,” Hirst said. “He left quite a lot.”

LOS ANGELES — Sometimes the biggest surprise on Oscar nomination morning is when there’s no surprise at all. This year many of the exclusions just came down to the fact that some of the categories, like best actress, were too competitive. And no matter how deserving, there were always be a few who have been in the conversation from the start who miss the ﬁnal cut. A few notable Oscar nominations, or lack thereof, that will have people talking.

NEGLECTED ANNETTE Just a few months ago, Annette Bening was considered a shoo-in for what was supposed to be a two-woman race between her for playing the matriarch in “20th Century Women” and Natalie Portman for “Jackie” — a redux of their “Black Swan” and “The Kids are All Right” showdown. And then good movies kept coming out, and Bening’s subtle, humanistic performance was the casualty. It was pretty much decided that she was out of the Oscar race when the Screen Actors Guild passed her over, but there was still the smallest

of chances that it wouldn’t matter in the end. Alas, for another year, Bening remains a four-time Oscar nominee. It could have been that it was also just an incredibly strong year for leading female roles. Taraji P. Henson (”Hidden Figures”) and ﬁve-time nominee Amy Adams (”Arrival” and “Nocturnal Animals”) were also overlooked. “Arrival” director Denis Villeneuve, also a nominee, felt Adams’ absence deeply. “She was the one who was deserving the most nominations. She had the movie on her shoulders. She is the soul of the movie,” he told The Associated Press. “That was a disappointment, big, big disappointment.”

NO SNARKY SUPERHEROS HERE There was a lurking suspicion that after its two Golden Globe nominations, a Producers Guild nod and Writers Guild nomination, “Deadpool” might have also edged its way into the Oscar nominations. Yet as charming as Ryan Reynolds is, the foulmouthed superhero couldn’t snark his way into the hearts of academy voters — even in the technical categories.

DeVoe: BET miniseries tells ‘authentic’ story of New Edition THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Ronnie DeVoe (from left), Michael Bivins, Bobby Brown and Ricky Bell attend a ceremony honoring THE ASSOCIATD PRESS New Edition with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame last week in Los Angeles.

ATLANTA — New Edition’s ascension to the top of the charts in the 1980s was meteoric. They sold millions, but turmoil was as integral to their story as their hit records. From the departure of Bobby Brown to other internal rifts to ﬁnancial difﬁculties, the drama involving New Edition is as legendary as the band itself. While it wasn’t great for band chemistry, it’s great for storytelling — and the many twists and turns of the group are well detailed in the group’s biopic, “The New Edition Story,” a three-part miniseries that aired this week on BET. “This is the real story about us,” said Ronnie DeVoe, a founding New Edition member. “There’s no holding back. This story is authentic.” New Edition — DeVoe, Michael Bivins, Bobby Brown, Johnny Gill, Ralph Tresvant and Ricky Bell — were one of the originators of the modern-day boy band, rejuvenating the teen

music scene in the mold of The Jackson Five with hits like “Candy Girl” and “Mr. Telephone Man.” They maintained success after puberty and laid the foundation for groups like New Kids on the Block, the Backstreet Boys and Boyz II Men. But the group weathered plenty of conﬂict: Brown’s erratic behavior during a concert tour got him kicked out the group. Tensions grew after Brown was replaced by Johnny Gill. Brown found success as a solo artist with the 1988 hit “Don’t Be Cruel.” Gill and Tresvant had their own solo careers, while Bell, Bivins and DeVoe created their own group, Bell Biv Devoe, and soared with their 1990 debut album, “Poison,” which went quadruple platinum. The ﬁlm ventures into the early beginnings of New Edition, formed by the childhood friends in a Boston housing project. It stars Woody McClain as Brown, Bryshere Y. Gray (of “Empire”)

Far east feasts: U.K.’s Ching-He Huang eats through a continent By Andrew Warren TV Media

ith cheap air travel, 24-hour news channels and, of course, the Internet tying the whole wide world together, cuisines that were once exotic and mysterious are becoming part of our everyday lives. Not so long ago, going out for Asian food meant sushi — or maybe the all-you-can-eat buffet serving up a rough approximation of Chinese food. Authentic Asian restaurants are everywhere now, so whether you’re craving Vietnamese cuisine or hankering for some Korean barbecue, your bases are probably covered. For a truly authentic experience, though, you have to go right to the source, and that’s where Ching-He Huang has us covered with “Ching’s Amazing Asia,” premiering Tuesday, Jan. 31, on Cooking Channel. The British-Taiwanese TV chef and cookbook author is a ubiquitous presence in the U.K.’s foodie scene, and with the launch of her new show on this side of the pond, she’s bringing the cuisine of her native continent to foodies over here. In each episode of “Ching’s Amazing Asia,” the host travels to a different corner of the massive Asian continent to check out its culinary scene. At every stop, she looks for the most delicious dishes on offer, meeting up with acclaimed local chefs to watch them work their magic in the kitchen. She also gets to eat that amazing food once the chefs are finished. Jealous? In the premiere episode, Ching’s in Kowloon, a part of Hong Kong’s bustling metropolitan area. On this visit, she doesn’t just watch the local chefs

work, she lends a hand. She helps to make some mouthwatering dishes, including wok-seared lamb, snow-topped barbecue pork bao and golden spring rolls. In future episodes, Ching swings by Taiwan to learn how to make crab lionhead meatballs, travels to Naha, Japan, for a unique Okinawan rice ball and visits Hong Kong island for the ultimate Asian surf and turf: a roasted suckling pig with lobster. Asia is a massive continent, and every nook and cranny has its own culinary traditions and modern-day food trends. Ching-He Huang is determined to check out as many of them as she can when “Ching’s Amazing Asia” premieres Tuesday, Jan. 31, on Cooking Channel.

Armored truck driver David (Galifianakis) has been growing increasingly disgruntled with the large bank that he works for, especially after his friend and coworker, Kelly (Wiig), is fired. She resorts to living with her childhood friend, Steve (Wilson), who comes up with a plan to rob the bank after watching a news story about the same company being targeted by the biggest heist in U.S. history only a few months prior. Steve gets Kelly on board with his plan, and together they persuade David to take part in the scheme, too. Once they have the millions of dollars in hand, though, they become the targets of a massive international manhunt. Director: Jared Hess.

No themes can tie together our high-school favorites

music JEREMIAH TUCKER Music columnist

If you’ve been on Facebook in the past few weeks, you’ve probably seen people sharing their top 10 albums of high school. It’s not hard to see why this took off. It’s the perfect mixture of nostalgia, navel gazing and conversation starter. I believe the original question that kicked off the meme was what were the most “influential” albums of your teenage years. That proved to be vague enough that it got interpreted different ways, such as “what albums did you listen to that were most influential to you at the time” or “which ones most influenced your tastes today?” People’s answers seemed to respond to one of the two interpretations, with answers falling into two different buckets: 1. adisplay of suspiciously immaculate tastes for a teenager or a LOL ’90s kid confessional such as “Can you believe I used to listen to the Spice Girls?”

I didn’t participate on Facebook, but I began thinking about it this week. In high school, growing up in Joplin in the ’90s at the dawn of the internet, my tastes were deﬁned by half-read issues of “Rolling Stone” magazine and the stuff my peers were into. My parents’ interests in classic rock and country wouldn’t factor in until later, when the fog of adolescence had cleared enough for me to consider them as human beings with opinions worth considering, and my adult tastes were probably most shaped by the college radio station at the University of Missouri and the advent of Napster. So in high school, I listened to a lot of embarrassing stuff, to be sure. Pop, for half-formed reasons I doubt I could articulate, was a nonstarter but in retrospect, would’ve been preferable to a lot of what I was listening to. I deﬁnitely owned Smash Mouth’s “Fush Yu Mang,” that ubiquitous Seven Mary Three album and a lot of soundtracks (“The Crow” and “William Shakespeare’s Romeo + Juliet” were huge). I was also a big 311 fan and repped the third-wave ska revival hard: Buck-O-Nine, Less Than Jake, Reel Big Fish, The Urge. I had CDs I hid from my

friends, such as Jewel’s “Pieces of You,” a Sheryl Crow CD pilfered from my mom (I still enjoy Sheryl Crow) and Joan Osbourne’s “Relish.” In short, there was nothing really coherent about my CD collection, no through line. I think this exercise kind of demands that you make sense of the inchoate tastes of a teenager, who, at that age, is often just sucking up everything in an attempt to make sense of oneself. So I guess the albums that made the biggest impact on me, the ones I would listen to again and again alone in my room on my 5-disc CD changer, all possessed a strong emotional component — listing them now, I realize they’re all major label angsty white boy music. (I wouldn’t really discover indie rock or give hip hop a chance until college.) Some of these are still among my favorite albums today, some I don’t even listen to anymore, but when I was teen, they felt indispensable. • PULP: “DIFFERENT CLASS.” Pulp

remains in my top 10 favorite bands of all time. I discovered the Britpop band in the most ’90s way possible, via a free CD sampler from American Eagle at the mall. “Disco 2000” was the sampler’s lead track, and I loved it. I bought “Different Class” used at Hastings and played it constantly. I used it for a class presentation in a high school English class and bought “This is Hardcore,” the band’s darker follow-up, the day it came out in 1998. The band’s obsession with lyrical detail, big hooks and class disparity formed the cornerstone of many of my adult tastes. • WEEZER: “PINKERTON.” My brother and I had a rule where if one of us bought a CD, the other couldn’t buy the same one. He owned “Pinkerton,” but I borrowed it constantly. I still remember playing it loud in our room during a family vacation over a tiny boombox. My ﬁrst year in college, I wrote an essay about “Pinkerton” and the op-

era “Madame Butterfly.” • RADIOHEAD: “OK COMPUTER.” I remember making my parents listen to “Paranoid Android” on a drive back from my grandma’s house after Christmas. They didn’t really get it. I think that made me like it all the more. It was also my first real introduction to “difficult” music. • BLINK 182: “ENEMA OF THE STATE.” I’ll still ride for Blink today. I doubt anything on this lists puts me as squarely in my headspace as a teenager than “Going Away to College” and “Adam’s Song.” • R.E.M.: “UP.” I owned all of R.E.M.’s ’90s Warner Bros. output, but “Up,” the band’s first album without drummer Bill Berry, is the one I have the strongest memories of as a teenager. I have a particularly vivid memory of listening to it in high school biology class. It was the perfect venue to connect with “Daysleeper.” • BECK: “MUTATIONS.” Beck’s singer-songwriterly tropicalia album. I liked it so much I bought it as a birthday present for a girl I liked, which at that age meant “this is how I see myself.” Which is laughable. I was nowhere near as evolved or as cool as Beck. Then again, who is?

Hollywood Q&A By Adam Thomlison TV Media Q: I really like “Lucifer,” and I thought I had the plot figured out, but since “Mom” came on the scene I am confused. Lucifer is the devil’s son come to Earth, the devil being a fallen angel from heaven. One of Lucifer’s brothers is here, too. Now, his mom wants to go back “home” to heaven. So, is God her husband? I don’t think so. Can you explain it? A: I guess it’s too late to warn readers about plot spoilers, since some of them appear in your question, but for anyone who’s worried, even more of the show’s story details will be revealed in this answer. Fortunately, the characters of “Lucifer” have so much background that this is all just a drop in the bucket. The family tree of the show works like this: Lucifer (Tom Ellis, “Miranda”) is the devil, an angel cast out from heaven to become ruler of hell — that’s fairly standard Abrahamic-religion stuff. However, the show starts playing with things after that. Lucifer, as with all angels on the show, is the child of God and God’s wife, referred to variously in the show as Goddess of All Creation, Mother of Angels and, more recently, Charlotte (Tricia Helfer, “Burn Notice”). Back when Lucifer was still ruling hell (before he left to become a police consultant on Earth, which is the premise of the show, and which sounds a little silly written out like that), God cast Lucifer’s mother out of heaven as well — they never got along after he created humanity, which she thought was a bad idea. He sent her to hell, where Lucifer could essentially hold her prisoner. She later followed Lucifer to Earth, which kicked off the events of the ongoing second season. If this all sounds a little hard to swallow, bear in mind that the show is based on a series of comic books. This is fairly normal stuff by comic standards (anyone who’s seen the big-screen Avengers movies, also based on comics, knows they have gods who occasionally get beat up by mutants and robots). You should also bear in mind that, weird as it may be, Fox has a lot of faith in the show (no pun intended). The network promoted “Lucifer” from midseason to fall this season, and recently extended season 2’s run by nine episodes. It hasn’t started handing out renewals yet, but “Lucifer” seems to stand a pretty good chance. Q: Will Rob Morrow’s character be back in the next season of “Billions”? I loved him so much in “Numb3rs,” it was nice to see him on TV again. A: We haven’t seen the last of Adam DeGiulio, the sharp, politically aware counselor from the attorney general’s office played by Rob Morrow. Showtime has confirmed that he’ll be back in season 2, which premieres Sunday, Feb. 19. Showtime hasn’t confirmed much else, though, so we don’t know exactly how he’ll continue to fit into the increasingly personal and bitter feud between Paul Giamatti’s headstrong government attorney and a brilliant financier (played by Damian Lewis), which is the engine of the show’s plot. Though you and I may be glad to see Morrow on TV, he’s been having some fun being off of it — though not far off. He’s taken to directing in recent years, most recently helming several episodes of the Freeform series “The Fosters,” as well as an episode of “NCIS: New Orleans” in October.

Q: Who does the voice over/announcing for Judge Judy’s show? A: Perhaps doing the announcing for one of the most popular court shows of all time pays really well, or perhaps voice work is just a part-time thing for him, but “Judge Judy” announcer Jerry Bishop doesn’t have many other credits to his name. He’s been the invisible voice of the show since it premiered in 1996, his smooth tones providing a nice contrast to Judge Judith Sheindlin’s ... sharper ones for 20 years. According to his résumé on the Internet Movie Database (IMDB), Bishop has only done five other shows in his vocal career, but he’s spread them over four decades. His first credit came with the late-’70s game show “The Cross-Wits,” and he didn’t take another role until 1983, when he did a five-episode guest stint as the announcer for the better-remembered game show “The $10,000 Pyramid.” He took an even longer break before doing a little voice role in the 1993 indie film “A Man With Heart,” which was it until he joined “Judge Judy” in 1996. He’s taken a couple of side projects at the same time, such as the 1998 reunion movie “CHiPs ‘99,” and announcing the first season of the paranormal reality series “Destination Truth” from 2007 to 2008. He hasn’t had to hustle for work, though, since Judy’s been so good to him. His little intro speech — “You are about to enter the courtroom of Judge Judith Sheindlin ...” — is one of the most iconic on daytime TV.

STORY: New Editionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s new album released Friday, after seriesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; conclusion FROM 8

The virtual reality ďŹ lm â&#x20AC;&#x153;Dear Angelicaâ&#x20AC;? is the ďŹ rst animated ďŹ lm experience created THE ASSOCIATED PRESS entirely in VR.

One of the best ďŹ lms at Sundance is a VR experience THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

PARK CITY, Utah â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The Sundance Film Festival is all about the shared experience of the theater, so imagine the surprise of realizing that one of the most moving ďŹ lms at this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fest most moving ďŹ lms is something that can only

HADSALL FROM 2 discovering as shooting. Finding a warp zone in a 2-D game was cool, but ďŹ nding an entire new world around a corner was amazing. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Super Mario 64â&#x20AC;? was ďŹ lled with those moments â&#x20AC;&#x201D; one was how in Wet Dry World, Mario had to be launched out of a cannon into a shaft, which turned out to be a passage to an entire submerged city. Fantastic. (Translation: The game helped make exploring just as fun as shooting things.) â&#x20AC;˘ HOW MUCH GAMES HAVE BEEN REFINED. I believe that â&#x20AC;&#x153;Super Mario 64â&#x20AC;? is as frustrating and daunting as it is revolutionary and game-changing. I mentioned â&#x20AC;&#x153;Unchartedâ&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;Ratchet and Clankâ&#x20AC;? earlier. Those games had to have been improved based on things â&#x20AC;&#x153;Super Mario 64â&#x20AC;? got wrong. Ignore camera issues â&#x20AC;&#x201D; just moving Mario is more nerve-wracking than it should be. (Translation: Games have gotten easier to control since â&#x20AC;&#x153;Mario 64.â&#x20AC;?) â&#x20AC;˘ MULTIPLE PATHS TO VICTORY. There are 120 stars to discover in the game, but only 70 are needed to punch your ticket for the gameâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ďŹ nal ďŹ ght. That concept remains fairly unique because even most modern

be seen inside of an Oculus Rift headset. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Dear Angelicaâ&#x20AC;? is a 12-minute illustrated story about memory, movies and grief that premiered at the Festival last Friday. In the ďŹ lm, a girl, voiced by Mae Whitman, lies in bed writing a letter to

as Bivins; Elijah Kelley as Bell; Grammy-nominated singer Luke James as Gill; Algee Smith as Tresvant; and Keith Powers as Ronnie Devoe. Each member of New Edition, along with choreographer Brooke Payne, worked with the actors for two weeks before ďŹ lming the project. The idea of the biopic ďŹ rst surfaced in 2005, but it took several years for each New Edition member to agree on creating the ďŹ lm. Some of the wait was on Bobby Brown. But shortly after the group reunited for their 30th anniversary tour in 2011, he eventually signed off to co-produce the ďŹ lm. (The group has had several reunion concerts over the years.) â&#x20AC;&#x153;That was the ďŹ rst time we all toured together since 1996,â&#x20AC;? Bivins said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;So it started with touring again and having the brotherhood, that camaraderie. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m

sure at that particular time, Bob was like, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Man, let me put my individuality to the side and hop onboard.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; I think it had something to do with us getting together around that time.â&#x20AC;? Bell Biv Devoe continues to tour and record music. The group released its fourth studio album, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Three Stripes,â&#x20AC;? on Friday, a day after the miniseries concluded. Over the years, each member of New Edition has made peace with one another. All six most recently toured in 2014, and Bivins expects them to reunite again at some point. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The good thing about New Edition, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s so much depth with this group. With Bob moving around earlier on in our careers and having so much success, then Johnny, Ralph and Bell Biv Devoe, it gives us kind of room to breathe,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It somehow comes back to New Edition. ... Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s always in our face whether we like it or not. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to comeback around. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just a matter of time.â&#x20AC;?

SEE VR, 30 games are linear, story-based games that require each player to run the same gauntlet. Not so with â&#x20AC;&#x153;Marioâ&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; a particular challenge can be skipped entirely. For instance, in an early level, Mario must race a penguin down a slippery slide made of ice. Beating that race is not easy, but players can just skip that star if it ďŹ&#x201A;ummoxes them. (Translation: There are many ways to beat the game, meaning players can focus on their strengths.)

Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m having a ball rediscovering the game. While I plowed through to get the cap switches as quickly as I could, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m in no hurry to beat Bowser. I may even try to get all 120 stars, which means going back to each course and ďŹ nding 100 coins â&#x20AC;&#x201D; a sloggy grind of a challenge. That approach has led me to discover new challenges I never bothered with back in the day Even though I have no childhood connection to the game, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a wonderful trip of nostalgia, hearkening back to a day when I could get lost literally in a game.

• SMASHING PUMPKINS: “MELLON COLLIE AND THE INFINITE SADNESS.” I have a vivid memory of staying home sick from school one day and listening to this double album on repeat and reading Stephen King’s “The Shining.” Still love it, though it’s hard to connect with regular Infowars guest Billy Corgan these days. • RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE: “EVIL EMPIRE.” My go-to aggro driving around album. I owned a Rage Against the Machine poster, T-shirt and all their albums. I don’t think I’ve listened to this in 10 years, but I recently found myself wanting to revisit their covers album “Renegades.” • BUSH: “SIXTEEN STONE.” It never dawned on me that Bush was a calorie-free English ripoff of Nirvana for American kids still mourning Kurt Cobain. All I knew was that this thing was larded with hits: “Everything Zen,” “Gylcerine,” “Machinehead” and “Comedown.” I never listen to this anymore, but I’ll still regularly play “Swallowed” from its follow-up “Razorblade Suitcase.” (This slot almost went to Everclear’s “Sparkle and Fade,” but Bush edged it out.) • NIRVANA: “UNPLUGGED IN NEW YORK.” Kurt Cobain was the patron saint of high-schoolers in the ’90s. This album was playing at full volume one night when my friends and I got in a wreck driving back from a spookhouse. No one was hurt. It was a great night.

LOBSTER LOVE Don’t think the academy can’t appreciate a healthy serving of pitch-black humor. In the original screenplay category, alongside more traditional fare like “Hell or High Water” and “Manchester by the Sea,” Yorgos Lanthimos and Efthimis Filippou’s “The Lobster” somehow managed to claw its way in there, too. The dark relationship satire starring Colin Farrell has been a favorite among critics’ circles, so it’s no wonder the whip-smart script has inﬁltrated the ranks. Farrell’s David explaining why he’ll choose to turn into a lobster if he doesn’t ﬁnd a partner is proof enough: “Because lobsters live for over 100, are blue-blooded like aristocrats and stay fertile all their lives.”

VIGGO’S FEELING FANTASTIC “Captain Fantastic” is the scrappy underdog of awards season that just won’t quit. Matt Ross’s crowd-pleaser about a hippie family forced back into society isn’t one of the year’s heavyweights, but it keeps sneaking in for all the right groups, including the coveted SAG ensemble award.

ARTS FROM 3 It’s rare that area art centers exhibit work that might be questionable. Sure, I’ve seen political artwork at Spiva that offended me. But I realized that others may not have been similarly affected and we have no right to expect art to conform only to individual tastes. When art that may be considered provocative is submitted for exhibits at Spiva, it is reviewed for ﬁnal determination by Executive Director Josie Mai and Exhibits Coordinator Shaun Conroy. Considering that questionable works are rarely

Viggo Mortensen’s lead-actor nomination (his second following 2007’s “Eastern Promises”) for playing the unconventional patriarch in the ﬁlm solidiﬁes that.

ALMOST COMPLETE SILENCE FOR SCORCESE Martin Scorsese’s epic “Silence” was nominated only for best cinematography for Rodrigo Prieto. An eight-time directing nominee and two-time writing nominee, Scorsese has only ever won once, for “The Departed” in 2007, but the well-reviewed “Silence” was expected to at least get some love for one of Hollywood’s greatest living directors. submitted, most artists, particularly local ones, are apparently willing to respect community standards. On occasion, though, a sign has been posted alerting parents that they may wish to preview the exhibit to judge whether their children should see it. The same principals are applied at artCentral, Carthage’s community art center. Basically, work must be family-friendly and contain no explicit nudity or pornography. If it’s questionable, the director, Alice Lynn Greenwood, confers with her board of directors. “Artistic freedom of expression is of tremendous value in our world of creativity and especially at artCentral,” said Greenwood.

Its star, Andrew Garfield, was actually singled out for his other film, “Hacksaw Ridge.” Garfield, however, told The Associated Press on Tuesday that he thinks “Silence” is going to be a film people will be talking about for decades to come.

WELCOME BACK, MEL What scandal? Mel Gibson is ofﬁcially back in Hollywood’s good graces with a best director nomination for “Hacksaw Ridge,” not to mention the fact that it has grossed more than $157.9 million worldwide on a reported $40 million production budget. If there’s one thing Hollywood loves more than awards and money, it’s a comeback story. She says there is a difference between art that is edgy and art that is openly provocative. While artists have the right to shock and appall, it doesn’t mean that such an approach is always effective. Greenwood is concerned that it can close minds rather than evoke thought. “I believe viewers who are too challenged or shocked are likely to close down their openness and inclination to explore and embrace newness beyond the norm,” she said. “A poignant and gentle — rather than screaming — introduction to art is most likely to be heard.”

Andy Williams Moon River Theatre opened its doors on May 1, 1992. Andy was the ﬁrst non-country music performer to open a theatre in Branson. The theatre’s design reﬂects the beauty and environmental integrity of the surrounding Ozark Mountains. The 48,000-squarefoot structure is set among 16 acres landscaped with rock formations, waterfalls and a stream. It is the only theatre ever to be featured in Architectural Digest. For the interior, it was Andy’s idea to create a beautiful auditorium for live performances along with a lobby area that had a museum-like atmosphere so that he could display pieces of art from his personal collection. Since his passing, Jimmy Osmond has taken over the theatre as a promise to his friend and mentor to keep the legacy alive. Andy Williams memorabilia is displayed throughout the theatre and a wide variety of entertainers grace the stage throughout the year, just as he envisioned.

Director Pedro Kos (from left), producer Cori Stern, Dr. Agnes Binagwaho, Director Kief Davidson, Dr. Paul Farmer and Ophelia Dahl pose for a portrait to promote the ﬁlm “Bending the Arc” last week at the Music Lodge during THE ASSOCIATED PRESS the Sundance Film Festival in Park City, Utah.

FROM 25

Damon, Afﬂeck hope ‘Bending the Arc’ inspires millennials THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

PARK CITY, Utah — The story of the global nonprofit Partners in Health is the story of a few young idealists who couldn’t have started any smaller — trying to delivery primary health care in rural Haiti 30 years ago. With no structures, little money, undaunted spirits and a belief that all lives are worth saving, the tireless work of Paul Farmer, Jim Yong Kim and Ophelia Dahl revolutionized the global health movement. Partners in Health now employs 18,000 people and impacts rural communities around the world. Their story is recounted in the documentary “Bending the Arc,” from directors Kief Davidson and Pedro Kos, which premiered this week at the Sundance Film Festival. “Paul and Jim and Ophelia are personal heroes for me,” Matt Damon said recently by phone. Damon’s an executive producer on the film, as is Ben Affleck. Both have known Farmer for years, having sought him out for his extraordinary contributions to the global health care movement. Affleck met him in Rwanda, Damon met him in Haiti, and both civically minded Hollywood stars didn’t

blink at lending their support to the project when producer Cori Shepherd Stern approached them. Both believe the ﬁlm will be inspiring and galvanizing for millennials as they seek a theatrical distributor at Sundance. “What’s so great about their story is it didn’t start grand and big,” said Damon. “It started with these people who had incredible passion.” Afﬂeck, speaking by phone from Los Angeles, was drawn to the fact that the three-decade partnership all started with a shared conviction that, “preventable suffering was totally unacceptable.” For Dahl, when she thinks about it, the origin of the movement really goes back to their upbringings, where they’d been socialized to expect the best, or at least know that when things go wrong, that there are always steps you can take to make it better. “When I went to central Haiti and saw what I saw there, it kind of in some ways didn’t occur to me that we couldn’t improve it in some way,” Dahl said. “It’s the good side of arrogance. You don’t expect it for yourself and if you can translate that and think that it

should be much better for all of these people, and you put into it the same kind of effort that you would looking after your own children, your own parents, and you see results, that’s really powerful to see things happen.” Stern got started pursuing the story in 2003, following the publication of Tracy Kidder’s book about Farmer, “Mountains Beyond Mountains.” It took over seven years to make “Bending the Arc,” which chronicles the origins and the strides Farmer, Dahl and Kim made in treating Tuberculosis and HIV in developing countries through community-based care, fair pricing and global funding. “Ultimately the story is an invitation. It’s an invitation for all of us who have some power and who can bring out voices to influence power to reject the mindset that health care is simply too hard or too expensive or too complicated,” Affleck said. “They’ve shown how to build systems that are rooted in equity and quality and efficiency and compassion. ‘Bending the Arc’ brings those to life and forces us to wrestle with an urgent imperative to create a new, just health care norm for everyone.” Dahl is a bit worried about

the new political climate under President Trump, but said that throughout her years of work around the world, she’s always found people in government at every level who are willing to help. One of the most significant AIDS relief programs, PEPFAR, she notes, was started under President George W. Bush. “This movement for global health has gathered a lot of steam around the world,” she said. “It’s a pretty unstoppable force of people who believe in far more equality in health.” Damon also doesn’t know what the future holds, but hopes for the best. “Jim Kim’s ambition was not to run the World Bank. He was like ‘I was protesting that thing 20 years ago!’ That’s the great message of the movie and the great lesson of their experience and what they did is that it started at a place of purity and passion and grew into something that’s massive and undeniable and that’s I think really a great lesson for every millennial,” Damon said. “If you can stick with something, and truly believe in something and can stay with it and ﬁnd comrades in arms, you can move mountains.”

Angelica (Geena Davis), a famous movie star who we also discover was her mother. We swirl around in her memories of Angelica, shifting between real life and images from movies she’s been in and back again. The viewer spins around taking in all the environs with Angelica, whether she’s in a shootout car chase or drifting into space. More than a few viewers shed some tears into the headset by the end. It’s the first animated experience created entirely in VR. Writer and director Saschka Unseld, also the Oculus Story Studio Creative Director, wanted to tell a story about how both family and films help shape you as a person. Unseld, who’d wanted to do illustrative VR for a long time, had always struggled with the coldness of computer animation. “It’s really hard to keep the human touch and texture in it,” he said. “If something is directly illustrated, you feel more human touch, you feel more hand, you feel more character.” It’s why he settled on illustrator Wesley Allsbrook to create the hand painted images. They had a coder develop a custom system so that she could draw directly into the program. “In VR it’s important to counter that tech coldness with artistry and the human touch,” Unseld said. “Dear Angelica” is already available for free for those who have Oculus headsets. For everyone else, it’ll be a little more difficult to see, but not impossible. “It’s important to us to always be in places like Sundance or Tribeca or other place where we can show these things to people who haven’t had interesting VR experiences yet,” Unseld said. “It’s still early times and there’s a lot of preconceptions about what VR is and isn’t.” “Dear Angelica” proves that VR is not just a cool immersive experience — it’s also art form that’s capable of pulling at your heartstrings.

Signs of spring starting to sprout SPEAKING of gardens Sandy Parrill There was no wind or even a slight breeze when I walked through the woods on one of our recent sunny, warm mornings, but the dry leaves and stalks of last summer rustled in my wake as if they took notice of my passing. Newly emerged leaves of wildﬂowers seemed to slightly tremble at my footsteps, and I had the fanciful notion they were waving at me. One lone snow crocus stood in the middle of a bed among brown withered leaves, come early for the spring party as if posing for a picture in its fancy purple dress. The January winter air was warm, moist with the fragrance of rain-slaked soil and soft as spring. I took grateful advantage of the warmth, letting the sun soak into my bones as I uncovered the “stream” of grape hyacinths trailing downhill through the woods garden. Last year, I neglected to do so. Before I knew it, they were blooming under drifts of leaves, and the

effect of flowing water was lost. I scattered drifts of white-flowering hyacinth bulbs around rocks among them for the illusion of foam from my hoard of as-yet unplanted species types of spring-flowering bulbs and tucked the rest — tiny (supposedly deer-resistant) tulips, early crocuses and anemones at the feet of trees — around rocks and moss covered logs. It isn’t too late to plant those forgotten spring-flowering bulbs, even this late in January if the ground is not frozen. Bulbs that are firm, not rotted or dry will grow, though some tulips and others will bloom later than usual this first year. Once established, they will bloom on time thereafter. Many of the tiny bulbs I planted were already sprouted and ready to come up in the ground with a little moisture and sunshine. Some of my favorites, anemone blanda, are small, black, dried-out-looking nuggets that must be soaked before planting, swelling into fat, round clumps difficult to tell top from bottom.

THINKING Master gardener ABOUT A training creates CAREER volunteers IN REAL ESTATE? BY DEAN FOSDICK The Associated Press

Like gardening? Want to share your skills with your community or family? Master gardener programs are creating an army of volunteers who contribute hours of stewardship. Specialties run the gamut, although most focus on nutrition. There are master food preservers, master beekeepers, master recyclers, master naturalists, master wellness volunteers, master financial volunteers, master clothing construction volunteers, watershed master volunteers and many more. Certified master programs usually are provided by university extension services and their county-run offices. The programs require several months of science-based training in classrooms and in the field. Volunteers, who pay a fee for the instruction, are certified upon

graduating and committing to a speciﬁed period of service. They share what they’ve learned about skills ranging from safe canning practices to raising organic vegetables, from restoring streambeds to energy conservation. Some specialties address regional or consumer interests. Kentucky’s Master Clothing Construction program was designed to foster family sewing skills. The Master Wellness program run by Texas A&M AgriLife Extension provides health and nutrition tips. Montana State’s Master Family & Consumer Science Volunteer program helps teach volunteers the history of cooperative extension and consumer sciences, said program manager Barbara Allen. “We need volunteers to have good backgrounds on their

January 29, 2017 Most people ďŹ nd chimney sweeping is a job best left to a trained professional. When hiring a professional, be sure to do your research so you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get scammed.

Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t fall for scams when hiring chimney cleaners ASK Angieâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s List

get a second opinion. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a common scare tactic. Call your local gas company, which will come free of charge to verify whether the chimney is truly a ďŹ re hazard.

REFERRALS FOR CHIMNEY WORK

Regular chimney maintenance and repairs typically require skills that go beyond the normal weekend warrior DIYer. If you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t use the right equipment, it can be dangerous and messy, and could trigger allergies or respiratory problems. Also, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a job rife for scams, especially for those unwilling to climb on top of their roof or inside their soot-ďŹ lled chimney.

CHIMNEY SWEEP SOLICITATION CALLS Many chimney scams start with a solicitation call. If the company calls you, hang up, says Richard St. Marie, owner of Rich and Johnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Complete Chimney Service in Woodbury, Connecticut. Once you bite on a solicitation, the telemarketer sells the job to the highest bidder, and that person may not have the proper state credentials or training, or they may not carry liability insurance to cover any damages. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not interested in doing the cleaning, theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re interested in getting as much money as possible when they get there,â&#x20AC;? St. Marie says. The cost of a basic chimney sweep ranges from $125 to $250, depending on the type of chimney and its condition.

If someone contacts you claiming your oil or gas company referred your home for chimney work, be suspicious. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a cold call. Utility companies donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t make those kinds of referrals. If a contractor shows you photos of chimney damage or creosote buildup, make sure the pictures truly came from your chimney. Many top pros email service recommendations to customers with time-stamped photos they can easily recognize.

NO UNSOLICITED VISITS AFTER HOURS Scammers can be bold. Some cruise neighborhoods looking for company yard signs of a legitimate contractor at work. After the contractor leaves a home, the scammer visits a short time later claiming they need to collect an outstanding balance. Never pay anyone you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t recognize. Legitimate contractors collect payment before they leave the job or they mail a bill. Hire qualiďŹ ed chimney service providers Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s easier than you think to ďŹ nd qualiďŹ ed, reputable chimney service companies. Start

with the following: â&#x20AC;˘ READ REVIEWS for chimney sweep companies. Look for reviews that match the type of service you need and request bids from at least three companies. â&#x20AC;˘ NEVER BUY chimney maintenance and repair services from a telemarketer or allow door solicitors into your home. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t let a contractor pressure you into going to the bank to withdraw money. â&#x20AC;˘ NOT ALL STATES require trade licensing for chimney sweeps, but they should be registered with the secretary of stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ofďŹ ce. Reputable businesses also carry liability insurance and workersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; compensation insurance, if applicable. Ask to see a copy of each policy before you sign a contract. â&#x20AC;˘ EDUCATE YOURSELF about the function and maintenance of chimneys by visiting the Chimney Safety Institute of America. You can search CSIA for certiďŹ ed sweepers in your area and the courses theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve completed.

CHIMNEY FIRE HAZARD SCARE TACTICS If a contractor says your chimney is a ďŹ re hazard, he may be right, especially if he ďŹ nds glazed creosote, which can ignite. But if he tells you it needs ďŹ xed immediately and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll cost thousands of dollars,

PARRILL FROM 2 I always plant them on their sides if I can’t figure them out; they come up anyway. I’m also excited to see new species of wildflowers from bulbs I planted last fall; though some of them are marked with labels so I know where to look (and to keep me from inadvertently digging into them while planting something else), I have largely forgotten where most of them are. Spring at Chaos is always an adventure of renewed discovery. Plant sticktags are nearly always stuck in the ground with new plants as I set them as many go completely dormant in winter (or summer), to help me recall what something is as it comes up, what variety and to avoid planting new things on top of them. Many moments are spent looking befuddled at unfamiliar leaves pushing through the ground until I see the tag and the “oh yeah” light bulb flashes. Labels also help when a garden visitor asks, “what is that?” and my mind goes totally blank, as it often does when I want to introduce someone I know well and

It’s cold again, time for the garden to take a nap and for me to curl up with my new garden catalogs and dream of spring yet to come.

can’t remember their name — or my own, for that matter. As the weather cools and returns to normal, many plants yawning and stretching in the warm air will hunker down and go back to sleep for a while, unwilling to completely climb out of blankets of winter-dry leaves. Spring and winter plants have amazing chemical abilities to halt growth and warm themselves when frigid temperatures descend, with an antifreeze to protect their cells — which is why daffodils may droop and look unhappy after a succession of subfreezing days and stand upright the next day after a few hours of sunshine as if nothing happened. I confess to being annoyed with

our native witch hazel, ﬁnally grown into a small tree. A witch hazel in our Michigan woods when I was growing up was one of my favorite trees, abuzz with bees making their hive in a nearby hollow tree. I was fascinated, spending hours lying under it watching honey bees come and go, their legs golden and bulging with pollen. I collected pockets full of the small, interesting nuts in fall, so having one in my own garden was a must. I look forward to the honey-fragrant yellow blooms in late winter, but this tree always stubbornly refuses to drop its leaves until new spring growth pushes them off. The ﬂowers are unseen, obscured by dead foliage. H. virginiana, I have learned,

is the variety grown and harvested for the astringent lotion bearing its name, discovered by botanist Linnaeus in 1753, who saw leaves, flowers and fruit all together on a single tree, naming it “hama” (at the same time) and “melon” (fruit). Ours is a nice, small tree and a bee favorite; we won’t cut it down, but I’m not interested in distilling my own witch hazel. I want to see the flowers. I’ll look for a spring-blooming variety that actually loses its leaves in fall to plant elsewhere in the garden; perhaps H. vernalis, native to the Ozarks, with small, intensely fragrant flowers or “Arnold Promise,” a hybrid with large clusters of yellow blooms. Witch hazels grow 10 to

5 15 feet, preferring full sun but will grow in partial shade. Ours has grown slowly, only reaching 6 feet in eight years but mostly untouched by pests and diseases. However, winter has returned this week. It’s cold again, time for the garden to take a nap and for me to curl up with my new garden catalogs and dream of spring yet to come.

‘Hygge’ is the art of living well HOME style

January 29, 2017

Early legwork could’ve prevented disappointment YOUR place

Mary Carol Garrity My sister, Judy, and I were in our PJs, snuggled under Pendleton blankets, savoring steaming cups of coffee. It was a rare moment of post-holidays quiet, and we were thoroughly enjoying doing nothing but catching up on each other’s lives. She said, “We’re hygge-ing!” “We’re what?” I asked her. “Oh my gosh, Mary Carol, this is going to be one of the biggest things in the new year,” she said as she whipped out her laptop and did a quick Google search of one of today’s hottest trends: “hygge.” If you’re like me, and you have never heard of hygge (pronounced “hoo-guh”), here’s a quick fill-in: This Danish word doesn’t have a direct translation into English, but “cozy” seems to come the closest. One of Oxford Dictionary’s finalists for 2016’s word of the year, hygge is how the Danes make their long winters bright and land themselves at the top of the list of the world’s happiest people. Hygge is enjoying moments of comfort and relaxation, contentment and well-being, savoring life’s indulgences, having a heart of gratitude. Like all big sisters, Judy seems to always know what’s up. She has been teaching me what is “cool” since we were kids. Her internet search that morning showed me how hygge is taking the world by storm. It makes sense to me, because right now, our world is stormy. Each of us needs a soul-filling sanctuary, a time and place to restore and revive. So, when we are filled up, we can get back out there and make a positive difference. That’s exactly what Judy and I were doing on that lazy winter morning. And, I imagine, you have been doing your share of hygge-ing, too. Hygge may not have an English equivalent, but those of us who love our homes totally get it, don’t we? Many of us have been cultivating this practice in our lives for years as

Alan J. Heavens

I recently had a new fence installed, and I am pretty unhappy about it. The wood quality is terrible, as if the installers used seconds. The salesman said this is the way the fence should look. I have only paid half the total cost. Should I ask them to repair/replace anything before I pay the balance? Because I haven’t seen your fence, it’s hard for me to judge. I also don’t really understand what the company representative means by “this is the way the fence should look.” Have you looked at other fences of similar composition to check him out? Every board I’ve ever purchased has the grade stamped on it. And anyway, any builder or carpenter worth dealing with can tell the grade of lumber by just looking at it. My raised garden beds are built of red cedar, which I bought at Lowe’s. Three are several years old; one is as new

we feather our nests, making our spaces warm and welcoming. Hygge is expressed differently by each of us. For me, it’s surrounding my dining table with good friends and good food. It’s quiet moments with Dan, curled up in front of the ﬁreplace, reading a good book, Lyric at our feet. It’s relishing all my relationships, from my family to those I meet every day. It’s celebrating the big and the little moments. It’s choosing joy. In my home, living a hygge life means adding beauty everywhere I can. A delightfully set table, even when it’s just an everyday meal. A luxurious bed covered in pillows and blankets that welcome me as I dive in each night. Sink-into chairs that look out over the lake. Warm lamp light. Walls covered with artwork that makes me smile. Shelves and tables dotted with treasures I’ve collected along my journey. This year, I wish for you a life

of hygge. Of togetherness with those you love. Comfort food. Clothes that make you feel sensational. Experiences that help you grow. A sanctuary of a home that wraps its arms around you. What more could we ask for out of life?

as last Memorial Day weekend. All look about the same age, though the new one looks a little brighter. The difference is that I went to Lowe’s and picked through the piles until I found what I wanted. The front of the board is smooth; the back is rough. Are both sides of the fence rough, or just your side? The rule is, good side faces the neighbors, not-so-good faces you. Though I understand your disappointment, you should have asked for a detailed explanation of the materials the installer was proposing to use, demanded a written contract for work performed and then speciﬁed contractually what you wanted and how much it should cost. Also, you should have never given the installer 50 percent up front. If you did sign a contract with these people that wasn’t written in their favor, it might include a way of reaching a settlement without going to court, because that’s where I think you are headed. Although belated, it might be time to call that lawyer.

Primulasâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; vibrant colors beat winterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s doldrums ON gardening Norman Winter Forget about fake news: Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fake ďŹ&#x201A;owers that have my attention. Actually, they are not fake; they are the brilliantly colorful primula. Recently, the astonishing color and beauty had passersby gawking in amazement. It took about 72 hours of temperatures in the 20s and I was begging for mercy, and just like magic there they were, in a grocery store of all places, offering the respite so needed during an arctic blast. I do not understand why every ďŹ&#x201A;orist, ďŹ&#x201A;ower shop and garden center doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have a truck full of half a dozen or more varieties for us to buy. There is no plant that can cure the winter doldrums like the primula. Primula comes from the Latin word which means â&#x20AC;&#x153;ďŹ rstling of springâ&#x20AC;? which quite accurately describes this plant. There are about 400 species of primulas, which are mostly alpine perennials with short rhizomes. Because they are alpine perennials and I have always lived in the hot South, I have treasured them in containers. You may be able to enjoy yours in the morning sun or afternoon shade of the landscape. These are not lantanas that will bloom until fall but will simply give you 12 to 14 weeks of unimaginable color that no other plant can match and at an otherwise bleak time of the year. If you see them at a garden center or ďŹ&#x201A;ower shop looking like they are waiting for adoption, give them a try; you will never go without again, unless of course, you canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t ďŹ nd them. I love their brightly colored ďŹ&#x201A;owers clustered together. Some

of the mixes are so pretty an artistâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s palette would be jealous. They also do well in mixed containers grown with pansies, daffodils, mustard or kale. Choose a good light, well-drained mix for your container, and then plant at the same depth as they grew in the original pot. Look for plants with healthy foliage that ďŹ lls up their container. I am partial to the Primula acaulis varieties like the Orion series and the beauty of the bi-color selections in the Danova series. These are fairly short plants with short ďŹ&#x201A;ower stalks, but they have colors that are so bold you will feel like a kid opening up the ďŹ rst box of crayons. The next tallest of the primulas come from another species or group known as Primula obconica hybrids. These plants can reach 12 to 18 inches in height producing taller ďŹ&#x201A;ower stalks. The colors are very pretty, not as bold but look like ďŹ ne depression-glass. The Libre and Juno series are the most popular in this group. Another species you might like is the Primula malacoides with taller stalks but airy clusters of slightly smaller ďŹ&#x201A;owers. When you get your plants keep them moist and fed with a dilute water-soluble, 20-20-20 fertilizer that has micronutrients. Avoid overhead watering to lessen fungal diseases. I use a small watering can with a tiny spout that allows me to pinpoint where the water goes. Be sure to deadhead old ďŹ&#x201A;owers for a tidy appearance and increased ďŹ&#x201A;ower productivity. Pots of ďŹ&#x201A;owers with riveting color until spring is well worth it to me.

Neutral colors can serve as decor foundations DESIGN recipes Cathy Hobbs

Mixing neutral colors black and white makes a bold statement.

TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE

Beige doesn’t have to be boring. In fact, neutral color palettes can create the perfect foundation for a bold color palette. One of the reasons why neutral is so appealing is the colors blend well with other colors. Like a blank canvas, working with a neutral color palette will allow you to build a color story. When working with a neutral color palette, here are some Design Recipes tips: • GO BEYOND white and beige. There are numerous neutral colors including chocolate brown, black and charcoal. • SELECT ACCENT COLORS that create a sharp contrast. Pairing a bright, bold color with a neutral color can be powerful. • DON’T BE AFRAID to use black. Black is elegant and can add a sense of luxury. • EXPERIMENT WITH a monochromatic color palette. Using tints, tones and shades of the same color can be not only soothing, but also modern and sleek.

• DON’T BE AFRAID to mix ﬁnishes and materials. You can incorporate neutrals into your space through your use of fabrics and ﬁnishes. • INTEGRATE A NEUTRAL COLOR palette into your largest pieces such as sofas and large upholstery items. This will allow you to get the maximum mileage out of your purchases. • TRY METALLICS. Silver, gold, brass and even platinum are not only appealing neutrals, but they can also add a bit of glam. • CONSIDER WOOD. Wood can add an interesting and rustic texture to a space. • INCORPORATE NEUTRAL accessories and accents. This can be a wonderful way to add exciting pieces to a space that won’t compete with the rest of your decor. • DON’T BE AFRAID to mix and match neutral colors in one space, for example a color palette of black, white and beige.

Choose the perfect wildﬂowers for your garden YARD smart

CROWNE POINTE APARTMENTS DUENWEG, MO 417-624-5844

These are the sites where efforts to sow with the early rains yield ultimate payoffs of eye-popping color tended by nature herself in the perfect season for ﬂowers.

Maureen Gilmer Whenever you disturb a lot of ground, there’s an opportunity to sow wildflowers for beauty and erosion control. Flowers such as the red European corn poppy made the battlefields bloom bright red after the World War I armistice to germinate in a single massive display. The ground, pocked with excavated trenches, bomb craters and vehicle tracks allowed so much dormant seed to sprout that it became a symbol of veteran sacrifice. When your yard or property is torn up for any reason, that’s the ideal time to sow not just for a spring flower show, but to help stabilize the soil against erosion by rain and runoff. When you’re working with larger sites or sowing a former lawn, the smaller wildflower packets at the garden center aren’t enough to make a difference. You’ll need to order by the pound to ensure the distribution rate is enough to create a really big, diverse stand that remains in flower from the earliest spring to the end of summer. Some may be perennial or biennial and become naturalized while others that are more ephemeral won’t appear the second year unless conditions are suitable for reproduction. The goal is to obtain a blend of wildflowers suited to your immediate climate for the best chance of having them survive and naturalize after the first big season. This requires an accomplished seed house focusing on wildflowers, particularly when seeking natives for the best local fit. A number of excellent American seed houses sell wildflower seed online so you can start shopping today: • APPLEWOOD SEED CO., applewood seed.com, 303-431-7333. • AMERICAN MEADOWS, american

Sowing wildﬂower seed is an old rural tradition that helped many species naturalize around early homesteads. TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE

meadows.com, 877-309-7333. • WESTERN NATIVE SEED, www. westernnativeseed.com, 719942-3935. Seed stock is divided into individual species or seed mixes which are blended for different climates and outcomes. The great benefit of a mix for firsttime users is the ability to discover which wildflowers do best in your yard. Once you know which germinate readily and reach maturity to bloom well, more of these seeds can be sown in the future with confidence they will thrive. Here are how seed mixes differ and why: • SEED MIXES: These mixes include the most widely adapted species found in most states. There is no regional specificity, so if your area lacks summer rainfall, they may not thrive. • NATIVE MIXES: These wildflowers are selected by their local nativity and feature many species unique or endemic to certain areas. Western gardeners should lean toward these collections of top native species for desert or mountain or valley, so choose those that match your microclimate best. • REGIONAL MIXES: Regional mixes suit a wide climatic range with

natives, exotic species and some new varieties to offer the widest range of plant forms and flower colors. In these you’ll find shasta daisy, a non-native hybrid that Luther Burbank bred for the same adaptability as wildflowers. • CLIMATIC MIXES: A climate area such as the Pacific Coast can have its own tailored seed mixes that are perfectly adapted to high rainfall, cloudy conditions and cooler temperatures. This is equally important in the desert where heat and extreme drought preclude most species from outside the ecosystem. Even if you don’t have a larger site for sowing, wildflowers are a great way to spice up modern and dry gardens in the West with vivid spring color. When sown in dry stream beds, the load of early wildflowers is like a miracle at winter’s end, germinating round rocks and boulders where seeds lodge. These otherwise parched places are often the only ones sandy-gravelly enough for many wildflower species. Older gravel fields and rock gardens of succulents and alpines can easily explode into bloom as well. Virtually any patch of roughed-up, well-drained ground in full sun will yield well. These are the sites where efforts to sow with the early rains yield ultimate payoffs of eye-popping color tended by nature herself in the perfect season for flowers.
