School march to Topeka has high stakes

Phoggy’s family

———

Education advocates trek to Statehouse for 4th straight year By Peter Hancock Twitter: @LJWpqhancock

SIBLINGS JUDY NORRIS AND MICK ALLEN, WHO ARE THE GRANDCHILDREN of legendary Kansas University basketball coach Phog Allen, are pictured with a photo of their grandfather when he was in his 40s, Norris says.

Topeka — Three years ago, Heather Ousley was just one frustrated mother in Johnson County who wanted to show her concern about conditions in her daughter’s school. “The reason we got involved was because our daughter’s class in first grade had 19 students in

it, and in second grade jumped to 30, so that was kind of an eye-opener,” she said. “I don’t know if you’ve been in a classroom with 30 7- and 8-year-olds. They are wiggly by nature. And it’s very difficult. The teacher valiantly carried on, and we couldn’t have asked for better educators, but that is an insurmountable task.” Please see MARCH, page 5A

eware of the Phoggy. The Phoggy? Don’t put that on the banner. That doesn’t sound very intimidating. But it did sound right around the family dinner table. “Phoggy” was the name grandchildren bestowed upon legendary Kansas University basketball coach Forrest “Phog” Allen. “I kind of grew up on his knee,” says Judy Morris, one of three of Phog’s grandchildren who still live in Lawrence. “His sense of humor was over the clawhorn@ljworld.com edge, and he loved his grandchildren.” So much so that at least cardinal sin in the Jayhawk one grandchild was allowed basketball family: storming the to break what has become a court. Morris perhaps holds

the distinction for most times storming the court after a Jayhawk victory. Morris remembers her postgame routine when the Jayhawks played in old Hoch Auditorium. “Boy, did I stick close to Phoggy,” Morris said. “After a win, I was on the court whenever I could be. That was the place to be.” Being next to Coach Allen was generally a good place to be. Mick Allen — a Lawrence attorney and Judy’s brother — remembers meeting Billy Martin, Yogi Berra, Mickey Mantle and other famed New York Yankees

Woman abandoned and brandishing firearms a robbery. grandson after theft during Federal court docuWichita — A Wichita woman accused of abandoning her 5-year-old grandson while fleeing a Kohl’s store after a shoplifting incident has been sentenced to nearly three years in jail. The Wichita Eagle reports that 42-year-old Kathleen Williams received a 32-month sentence Thursday. She had pleaded guilty in January to a charge of theft after prior conviction and a charge of contributing to a child’s misconduct or deprivation. Prosecutors say she tried to steal clothing from the store before fleeing, leaving the clothes and her grandson behind in June. Williams committed the theft while on probation from two 2013 theft convictions, Judge David Kaufman said in court Thursday. She eluded police for nearly three months. Williams’ grandson was placed in foster care as a result of the incident. No other relative showed up in court to claim him during a hearing last year.

Tot in getaway SUV during bank robbery Kansas City, Kan. — Three people have been charged with robbing a suburban Kansas City bank with a toddler in the getaway vehicle. Eighteen-year-old Jacob Smith, 39-year-old Gary Jordan and 26-year-old Danille Morris were charged Thursday with bank robbery

ments say Jordan and Smith were armed when they held up the Stilwell bank Wednesday. Morris is accused of waiting outside in the getaway sport utility vehicle with her 19-monthold daughter. The three Kansas City, Kan., suspects are accused of fleeing into Missouri with law enforcement in pursuit before wrecking the SUV. Smith is accused of firing shots during the pursuit and Jordan of trying to carjack another vehicle after the wreck. The toddler wasn’t hurt.

State Fair reveals main-stage concerts Hutchinson — Kansas State Fair officials have announced the first round of main stage acts for the 2016 event. The Wichita Eagle reports that the acts announced Tuesday include Suzy Bogguss, Lynryd Skynyrd and Jake Owen. The first of the concerts will have several classic country acts, including Bogguss, Billy Dean, Restless Heart, Richie McDonald of Lonestar. That show is Sept. 13. Classic rock band Lynryd Skynyrd, known for its hit “Sweet Home Alabama,” will perform Sept. 16. Country singer Jake Owen will perform with opening act Old Dominion on Sept. 17. Owen has five No. 1 hits, including “Alone with You” and “Barefoot Blue Jean Night.”

who would occasionally come to Lawrence to visit Allen to receive treatment at his osteopathic medical office on East Eighth Street. In addition to being a pioneer in basketball coaching, Allen also is widely credited with being one of the early leaders in the use of athletic training. Of course, there also were opportunities to meet some famous basketball players — or at least some who would become famous. Wilt Chamberlain certainly would be near the top of that list. There are lots of good stories about Wilt to be told around an Allen family dinner table. He was the top recruit in the country in the day, and KU was in competition with Wilt’s hometown school of Villanova to land him. Brace yourself, kids: there were no signing day specials on ESPN to figure out where a college basketball recruit was headed. Coach Allen learned about it when — get this — newspaper writers called to tell him that Wilt was coming to KU. Mick tells the story of what his grandfather said: “That’s great. I hope he comes out for basketball.” You’ve probably heard that one before. It is a well-known Allen story. There are others, and not all of them have Coach Allen as the central figure. A favorite is about a recruiting trip Wilt took to KU. Judy’s and Mick’s father — Mitt Allen, who was a longtime Lawrence attorney — knew that the black fraternity at KU was having a social event that evening. Mitt called the fraternity president to ask if Wilt could attend, and if he would make sure that someone would take the time to at least dance with Wilt. Mitt called back a bit later in the evening to see how the event was progressing. The fraternity president said Wilt had a date and was having a wonderful time. Mitt became just a bit concerned, Judy recalls. “He asked: Is Wilt having a really good time with his date?” Judy remembers. The fraternity president answered honestly. “I sure hope not. I fixed him up with my girlfriend.” Mitt’s assistance in off-court basketball issues wasn’t uncommon, both Mick and Judy remember. Mitt was a two-term county attorney in Douglas County, including during the time period that Chamberlain was in town. Mick recalls the time that his father learned that Wilt was

denied service at a local greasy spoon. “Dad, I think, had some selfish interests in making Wilt happy,” Mitt concedes, but he said he’ll always remember what happened next: His father went to the small diner and noticed that it was just a pit, with health code violations everywhere. “Dad told the owner that he didn’t know why anybody would want to eat here, but that Wilt would be back the next day,” Mick recalls. “He said Wilt will sit here and you will serve him, or else the next visitor you will have will be from the health department. They served Wilt the next day.” Mitt also was the county attorney when Clyde Lovellette was being recruited. Lovellette also was a big recruiting prize, although that didn’t stop Judy from becoming annoyed with him. Why? Fireworks. Lovellette had never shot any at his Indiana home, and since he was visiting near July 4, there were plenty of fireworks around. Coach Allen ended up giving all of Judy’s fireworks stash to Lovellette. Don’t worry, Judy got the last laugh. Lovellette returned to his hotel room in The Eldridge and proceeded to start shooting fireworks out the window, Judy recalls. “That got both my dad as county attorney and grandfather down to The Eldridge hotel,” Judy says. “I thought it was funny, but I’m not sure everybody else thought it was.” Yes, there are a lot of great stories with Kansas basketball. So many, in fact, that it is easy to forget that the people in them aren’t just characters. Phog Allen isn’t just a name for a fantastic basketball arena. The days of Phog Allen the man seem like a long time ago. Coach Allen died in 1974. But he still has a multitude of living grandchildren, with the non-Lawrence ones being as close as Kansas City and as far away as California. Judy said she is gratified that Allen isn’t forgotten. The fieldhouse helps ensure that, and the title of “Father of Basketball Coaching” seems likely to be around for a bit longer too. But to her the simpler title of “Grandfather” is still important. She’s collaborating on a book that is expected out in 2017 that will focus more on the life of Allen than previous books have. “I don’t think they know as much about him as I would like them to know,” Judy says of the public’s knowledge of Allen. She now tells stories

about how Phog’s family grew up traveling from Missouri town to Missouri town. Phog’s father would struggle to make money as an accountant, while Phog would earn money in the fighting ring as a 17- or 18-yearold. “He was a skinny, spidery looking little bird,” Judy says. “But he was the Allen who would take on the local whatever to make money for the Allen family.” Judy notes that the family knows Allen received an osteopathic medical degree, but is unsure of any other schooling he ever had. “His use of the English language was amazing, though,” Judy recalls. Sometimes he would use it to be biting and cynical, Mick recalls, and certainly it wasn’t always easy being the grandchild of Phog. Mick said there was jealously among KU faculty members of Phog’s fame. Sometimes family members felt that too. “I remember getting a phone call from a high school classmate years ago,” Judy recalls. “She called to apologize for hating me in high school.” But most of the time, as you would imagine, it has been really good to be an Allen in Lawrence. No, they don’t get free tickets to the fieldhouse, although Mick says he does get to see some practices that are closed to the general public. Both Mick and Judy speak highly of Coach Bill Self, and also of former Coach Larry Brown, who they said did a lot to help reconnect their father with the KU basketball program. Mitt Allen died in 1988, just a few days after Brown and the Jayhawks won the National Championship. “It was sort of like the last thing he needed to see through,” Mick says. Now we get to that time — March Madness — that is ripe for more memories to be made around KU basketball. The Allens already have plenty, but, of course, they are like the rest of us and are rooting hard for a few more. The games will begin, with a sudden ending or jubilation waiting around every corner. The great history of Kansas basketball — which in so many ways is the history of the game itself — will certainly get mentioned by announcers, fans and others in the coming days. At some point, you’ll surely hear the phrase uttered: Beware of the Phog. But now you will know there is a corollary to that: Love the Phoggy.

Guns pose unique problems at KU Med By Sara Shepherd Twitter: @saramarieshep

Kansas City, Kan. — Research subjects coming in for a brain scan at Kansas University Medical Center’s Hoglund Brain Imaging Center are usually asked to strip down to scrubs. When concealed handguns become legal on Kansas state university campuses, and someone brings one to the center, where will the subject put the gun during the procedure? That question was posed by professor and center director William Brooks last week during an informational session about imminent changes to the state’s concealed carry law and how the university will implement them.

Under the Kansas Personal and Family Protection Act, state universities must allow concealed carry on their campuses beginning in July 2017. Universities can prohibit legally carried concealed guns from buildings only if adequate security measures, such as metal detectors and guards, are installed. The Kansas Board of Regents has approved amendments to its statewide weapons policy to account for the change, and individual universities now are working on campus-specific policies, due to the Regents before October. KU Chancellor Bernadette Gray-Little has formed a systemwide Weapons Policy Advisory Committee to tackle the task. Working within that committee are two subcommittees, one to determine a campus-specific plan for KU’s Lawrence, Edwards (Overland Park) and Kansas Law Enforcement Training Center (Yoder) campuses, and the other for KU Medical Center. The concealed carry law doesn’t apply to hospitals, but implementation may be tricky because many of the campus’ hospital and academic spaces are “contiguous,” Kluding said. “I don’t think there are going to be easy answers to the questions,” she said.

Williams said other details to be worked out at both Lawrence and the medical center include exactly how to determine whether a gun is “on your person” and whether it’s possible to exclude some areas such as labs with combustible materials by requiring key codes or card-swipes by limited personnel to enter. “We’re talking microexamination of all of this stuff in the next six months,” Williams said. Just as they did on the Lawrence campus in December, most attendees who commented indicated they did not support allowing guns on campus and were afraid of having them there. Some people do favor it, however, saying the law will allow KU students and employees to carry guns for self-defense if they so choose. In one medical centerspecific example, a man cited the campus’ location in urban Kansas City, Kan., where there is more crime than in Lawrence. The man, who did not give his name, said just recently someone was assaulted across the street from campus. The Weapons Policy Advisory Committee — which Keary, Kluding and Williams all are on — wants to hear campusspecific concerns from all KU locations, Keary said. The committee email address is weaponspolicy@ ku.edu, and more information is online at weaponspolicy.ku.edu.

“It would be good to move to a new location that’s more visible to people, in a more central hangout spot,” said Olivia Taylor-Puckett, coordinator of the farmers market. “The library is already a hub.” Before the move can be finalized, it must get approval from the Lawrence City Commission. The city owns the area between the library and the Vermont Street parking garage. The topic has been tentatively scheduled for the commission meeting on March 22. “Hopefully they’ll green-light it,” said Amanda Cook, president of the farmers market board.

the decision to move is the ongoing construction along New Hampshire Street surrounding the farmers market site, Cook said. There are two under-construction apartment projects in that block, one at Eighth and New Hampshire and one at Ninth and New Hampshire. For the Saturday market, contractors have agreed to remove a boundary fence to open up the space for more vendors, Karen Pendleton, of Pendleton’s Country Market, has said. “Between construction on those ends, it made more sense for us to find a different place on Tuesdays,” Cook said. “We’ve always contemplated where the best location for a weekday market is, and we’ve been in a number of spots over the lifetime of the market. We’re going to try this, and hopefully this will work really well for everybody.” The availability of

parking is better than in the old spot, Cook said. Organizers are also hoping the move will attract a new demographic of market-goers. The proximity to the pool and library could open up the possibility for the market to hold children’s events sometime in the future, Taylor-Puckett said. “It will hopefully create a little bit of a different customer base, potentially,” Cook said. “And for the wonderful clients that have been coming for years on Tuesdays, I don’t think it will be too much of a shift. Honestly, this is going to be an exciting new change.” The Saturday farmers market runs from 7 a.m. to 11 a.m. until Aug. 27, and then from 8 a.m. to noon from Sept. 3 to Nov. 19. The Tuesday evening market will end Oct. 25.

Stephens lost control of her car, hitting the pedestrian Drake and a sidewalk planter before crashing through the front of the Liberty Hall video store at 646 Massachusetts St., according to the report. The police report supports the account of the wreck that Protasio’s supervisor, Stefanie Bryant, news director for WOW 6News, shared Thursday with the Journal-World. Bryant said Protasio entered the intersection on a green light from the east and attempted to brake

and steer to avoid hitting Stephens’ car, which had entered the intersection from the south against the light. Saturday morning, Maggie Allen, the manager of the Liberty Hall movie theater to the north of the video store, was tacking a sign that announced the store was still open to the particle board sealing the video store’s entrance. Allen said the store reopened late Friday but that it would be about a week before the entrance and glass window destroyed in the wreck would be repaired.

Efforts to repeal Common Core gain steam in Kan.

HEATHER OUSLEY HOLDS HER SON JOSHUA, 4, as her daughter Elliannah, 10, and son Samuel, 8, march alongside her during a rally of some 200 parents and teachers on Saturday in South Park. Walkers from Game On for Kansas Schools stopped in South Park on their way from Merriam to Topeka to advocate for school funding at the Statehouse.

es would be grounds for impeaching a Supreme Court justice. Meanwhile, Ousley and other members of the Game On organization plan to continue marching. And if their marches on the Statehouse don’t produce results, she said they hope their votes at the ballot box in November will. “I think ultimately our goal is to tell parents to get in the game,” she said. “I mean, it is time to be paying attention. It is time to be focusing on what is impacting their children and their children’s classroom. We are the people who are being represented in Topeka. And if our concerns aren’t being addressed, we need to consider who we’re electing to represent us.”

She and other members of the group Game On for Kansas Schools have continued to march each year, despite their lack of success in changing the direction of school funding policy in the Kansas Legislature. But she and her husband, Jarrod, remained politically active in their push for increased school funding, and in 2014 Jarrod was elected to a seat in the Kansas House. And this weekend, they are doing it again, this time with three separate marches going simultaneously, originating from Johnson County, Emporia and Manhattan. They plan to converge in Topeka on Monday, with a rally at Topeka High School, followed by a final walk a few blocks down the street to the Statehouse. This year’s march, however, comes at a time when the stakes are higher than ever before. After lawmakers last year repealed the 20-year-old school funding formula, replacing it with a system of block grants, the Kansas Supreme Court has ruled that at least part of that change was unconstitutional, and it has threatened to shut down public schools if lawmakers do not come up with an acceptable funding plan by July 1. “Everything’s at stake, isn’t it?” Ousley said

— Heather Ousley, of the group Game on for Kansas Schools during an interview last week. “They’re threatening to not have a formula in place and shutting down schools in July. Even if they have a formula in place, I don’t think anyone is certain there’s money to fund it. So what would that mean if they did come up with an equitable formula but there wasn’t any money to put into it?” In February, the Supreme Court addressed one portion of the school finance case, declaring that changes lawmakers made to “equalization” funding were unconstitutional because some districts had to levy higher property taxes than others to achieve substantially similar levels of funding. On Friday, two bills were introduced — one in the House; another in the Senate — that would address the equity issue. Rep. Ron Ryckman Jr., R-Olathe, who chairs the House Appropriations Committee, introduced one that would essentially restore the old equalization formula for one year. He said it would cost about $38 million. But it would not result in additional money for schools. Instead, the additional state dollars would offset property taxes in some districts, including Blue Valley and Shawnee Mission, whose equalization aid was reduced by the 2015 law. It would also result in higher taxes for other districts, including Wichita, Ryckman said. “The courts are threatening to close schools based on property tax

that goes up or down, not money that goes to the schools,” Ryckman said. The second bill, from Sen. Ty Masterson, R-Andover, who chairs the Senate Ways and Means Committee, would not add any more state money to the formula, but would redistribute the money already appropriated in a way that would level out the tax disparities. Detailed analyses of the two bills were not available by the end of the week. Meanwhile, the Supreme Court is getting ready to hear oral arguments later this spring on the much larger question at stake in the suit: whether overall funding for Kansas public schools is adequate to produce the results expected of them. A three-judge district court panel ruled last year, for the second time, that overall funding is not adequate to meet the Kansas Constitution’s mandate for “suitable provision” for public school funding. That panel ordered the state to increase funding by roughly $500 million a year, an order that has been put on hold pending the appeal. Conservatives in the Legislature have bristled at such judicial orders, arguing that they have sole authority under the Constitution to appropriate money. A bill that passed out of the Senate Judiciary Committee on Thursday provides that attempting to usurp the authority of the legislative or executive branch-

help us move forward.” The district employs 1,800 teachers and support staff, and Hayden said he sees better communication as part of making those employees feel valued and recognized. To that end, Hayden said he would like to start “listening tours” where he makes visits to schools throughout the district to talk to staff and students, particularly about what is important and what needs to change in the district. “I want Lawrence public schools to send the message to everybody that we value people,” he said. Hayden said he will start the listening tours soon and will take that feedback back to the school board to help guide the board’s goals, which are drafted annually in July. Though Hayden said he doesn’t see the board’s broader goals changing, he said the specific approach to accomplishing them is more flexible. Next year, Hayden said the top three things the district will address are: improving access to technology through training and initiating a one-to-one studentto-device ratio; personalize learning by expanding the blended learning classroom model; and begin planning for major renovations to the district’s six secondary schools. Hayden’s familiarity with and commitment to the board’s ongoing plans were also important to board members, as was his flexible approach. School board vice president Marcel Harmon said Hayden’s willingness to get feedback on how the district is rolling out its initiatives was a big factor in his vote. “He’s open to getting input from teachers and staff and building administrators and the central office, trying to just kind of take another pulse of where we’re at,” Harmon

bring that more to our schools,” Hayden said. “And I think that starts from the top, so my mission — even in the next few months before I’m officially the superintendent — will be to connect with people and connect with our schools.” Current Superintendent Rick Doll announced in November that he would resign his position effective June 30. Hayden, 44, is currently assistant superintendent of business and operations with the Lawrence school district and was named the district’s incoming superintendent on Tuesday. The Lawrence school board approved a twoyear contract for Hayden at a salary of $205,000. The district has 20 schools, a college and career center, and serves 11,700 students in prekindergarten through 12th grade. Hayden began his career as a social studies teacher in Udall, and over the past 21 years has worked various roles in districts throughout Kansas and Texas. He has been an assistant superintendent in Lawrence for the past five years, and prior to that he was superintendent of the Tonganoxie school district. In addition to his experience growing up, Hayden said his early career in education also influenced his idea of a personable school environment. In the first half of his career, Hayden was a teacher, assistant principal or principal in several Kansas districts — Ellis, Valley Heights, Cheney — that have just hundreds of students districtwide. During public meetings to gather feedback on the district’s superintendent search, some community

sonable environment in the Lawrence district, especially at the middle and high school levels where schools serve larger populations, Hayden said some things will have to change. “At district level we need to do a better job of building relationships with our staff, with our students and with the community at large, so our parents and our business partners,” Hayden said. “Lawrence is very supportive of education, but sometimes that sheer size that I’m talking about can create some disconnectedness and we end up working too much in isolation.” The school board voted unanimously to hire Hayden. School board president Vanessa Sanburn said that part of that decision for her was his plan to improve communication between the district and teachers. “We’ve got to deal with preventing teacher burnout, making sure that teachers are valued, making sure that teachers’ input is heard,” Sanburn said. “And so we need to be engaging in some serious discussion about how we need to do a better job in that area going forward. It was clear that Kyle (Hayden) is aware of that issue and ready to take it on in a meaningful way to

said. “And then if there’s certain ways to redirect some of that, then he’s willing to do that. I found that pretty appealing.” Hayden also said part of his motivation is personal. His wife, Katy, is a teacher at Free State High School, and their three children attend Lawrence schools. Next school year, his children will be at elementary, middle and high school levels. Sanburn said Hayden’s personal ties and subsequent commitment to the community impressed her. “I do think that brings a really interesting perspective to a leader,” she said. School board member Shannon Kimball also noted Hayden’s approach, and said she thinks it will offer him an advantage in his new role. Kimball and Hayden have both been members of the facilities planning committee for

the past few years. “He is very good at building collaborative teams and getting input and buy-ins from people in the areas that he works in,” Kimball said of her experience working with Hayden. Hayden recognized that getting that buy-in is not easy, and said that he thinks that is one of the challenges that will come along with his new position. “I think the primary challenge of being a superintendent is to keep everybody rowing in the same direction, and focused on the things that are most important,” Hayden said. “…But sometimes we don’t necessarily know the specifics on how to get there.” — K-12 education reporter Rochelle Valverde can be reached at 832-6314 or rvalverde@ljworld.com.

Ongoing issues The state shouldn’t shirk its responsibility to Kansans who depend on mental health care provided by two state hospitals.

he recent resignation of Larned State Hospital’s superintendent is yet another indication of ongoing problems at the state’s only two hospitals for people with serious mental illness. Like the superintendent before him, Tom Kinlen, who led Larned for about four years, faced severe staff shortages that can compromise both services and safety at the facility. Similar shortages have been reported at Osawatomie State Hospital and contributed to problems that resulted in the hospital losing its Medicare support. Revisions to next year’s budget plan include an additional $2 million for Osawatomie and $1 million for Larned, but that funding may not survive additional cuts that will be necessary as a result of continuing revenue shortfalls. Even if the hospitals receive that funding it may not be enough to provide the better salaries and working conditions that are needed to attract qualified staff members. According to recent news reports, staff at both hospitals are being forced to work as much as 40 hours per week of overtime — a situation that impacts not only their private lives but the efficient and safe operation of the hospitals. Officials in the Kansas Department of Aging and Disability Services have announced steps to address the staffing shortages at Larned. The department is providing additional training for staff members and has formed an employee committee to address employee and patient concerns. An internal memo obtained by a Topeka newspaper after Kinlen’s resignation indicates KDADS also is looking at extending day care services for employees and is working to maintain a positive work environment at Larned. “The three most important things,” the memo said, “are respect, kindness and compassion.” Those are good goals, but improved pay and work benefits probably also are high on the list for current and potential employees. A few months ago, after Osawatomie lost its Medicare accreditation, some state legislators speculated that the Brownback administration might be intentionally allowing the state’s mental hospitals to decline as a prelude to privatizing those facilities. The Legislature passed a bill this session that barred privatization without its approval, but now is considering legislation that would allow some hospital responsibilities, such as staffing, to be contracted out — a move that critics say is a back-door step toward privatization. It’s sad to think that state officials would allow conditions at these hospitals to deteriorate just to illustrate the state can’t adequately provide these services and ought to turn them over to a private contractor. The state shouldn’t shirk its responsibility to the families and patients who depend on services offered by these two hospitals. It needs to get a handle on the hospitals’ ongoing issues and make the necessary investment in both staff and facilities to solve those problems and get the hospitals back on track. LAWRENCE

U.S. government decay feeds anger Washington — Good countries can sometimes go bad. Donald Trump’s supporters implicitly make this argument when they proclaim “Make America Great Again.” And so do those who loathe Trump and see in him a dangerous populist response to the anger of frustrated middle-class voters. The rise of Trump, love him or hate him, conveys an inescapable message: America’s political institutions are in decay, and voters are angry at a government that they perceive (correctly) to be broken. The danger is that Trump’s responses would probably make the underlying governance problems worse — and increase polarization and dysfunction even more. The evidence of “Trump rage” has been clear in nearly every primary and poll this year. Ron Fournier of The Atlantic summed up the basic message when he quoted a Flint, Mich., voter about the catastrophic failure of that city’s water system: “What matters to me as an American, what should matter to all Americans, is that we learn from this: How do we change the way government works? How do we fix these systems?” Here’s the puzzle: A country that is angry at “government” or “Washington” will have difficulty fixing problems that result from the breakdown of public services caused by underfunding, incompetence and the predominance of private “special” interests over the public interest. What’s

“

What’s needed isn’t less government, but better government — which costs money and requires good leadership.” needed isn’t less government, but better government — which costs money and requires good leadership. America’s political dysfunction is the subject of an important book called “Political Order and Political Decay,” published in 2014 by Francis Fukuyama, a Stanford social theorist. Fukuyama became famous for asserting the triumph of liberal social order in his 1989, post-Cold War essay, “The End of History?” He has been trying ever since to sort out why that forecast proved so premature. Fukuyama notes long-ago examples of thriving systems that grew rigid and failed to adapt to change, from the Han Dynasty in China to the Mamluks in Egypt to the Old Regime in France. He warns: “Modern liberal democracies are no less subject to politi-

cal decay than other types of regimes.” Theorists imagine that democracies are selfcorrecting, but that doesn’t happen if voters “are poorly organized, or they fail to understand their own interests correctly.” Decay happens when agencies that are supposed to serve the public are captured by elites, or over-managed by elected officials, or buffeted by what Fukuyama calls “adversarial legalism.” Basically, he makes an argument for competent, uncorrupted bureaucrats — “public servants,” as they were once known. His model of an agency shattered by conflicting political mandates and poor management is the U.S. Forest Service, which went from a “gold standard” mission of managing forest resources to a secondary (and misconceived) goal of preventing forest fires. The deep anti-government hostility of the modern Republican Party is part of the problem. Tax cuts have starved many government agencies of money and good people. Fukuyama notes that Medicare and Medicaid, which account for 22 percent of the federal budget, are managed by 0.2 percent of federal workers. As the federal workforce has dwindled, the number of contractors has exploded. Taxpayers suspect that it’s a con, and they’re right. Congress meddles with the federal agencies rather than passing legislation to solve

problems. Fukuyama notes that the Pentagon is mandated to send Congress nearly 500 reports a year. “The United States is trapped in a bad equilibrium,” Fukuyama writes. “Congress mandates complex rules that reduce the government’s autonomy and make decisions slow and expensive. The government then doesn’t perform well, which confirms people’s original distrust.” An angry public watches as the rich get richer, the middle class stagnates, and government does nothing. Middle-class prosperity and self-confidence have been the foundation of U.S. democracy. Yet the Pew Research Center estimates that the share of household income going to middle-class families fell from 62 percent in 1970 to 43 percent in 2014, while the share for upper-income families rose from 29 percent to 49 percent. Trump gives an angry America someone to blame: Muslims, Mexicans, government bureaucrats, free trade negotiators, politicians, journalists. But he doesn’t begin to address the real problem of how to fix America’s political decay. “No one living in an established liberal democracy should ... be complacent about the inevitability of its survival,” warns Fukuyama. Or as Benjamin Franklin put it in 1787: “A republic, if you can keep it.” — David Ignatius is a columnist for Washington Post Writers Group.

Confront issues that brought us Trump We should probably start thinking about what we’re going to do after Trump. Of course, if the nation decides it really does want a vulgar, narcissistic bigot with the impulse control of a sleep-deprived toddler as its 45th president, the options left to thinking Americans will be few, but stark: Either curl up in a fetal ball for four years or jam the pedal to the metal on the northbound interstate and don’t stop till you see moose. Try to get there before the Canadians build their border wall. If, however, the more likely scenario prevails and the electorate rejects Donald Trump, we will face a different set of options. The first is to finally take a stand against the forces that brought us here. Those forces — economic insecurity, ignorance, bigotry and fear — are hardly new. Many observers, this one included, have bemoaned them for years. Trump’s innovation has been to drag the last three into the light, to render dog whistles and codes obsolete with his full-throated, wideopen embrace of all that is ugly and shameful about us. Assuming his rebuke in

“

Defeating Trump would not erase the forces that made him possible.”

November, the natural tendency will be to mop the brow and sigh in relief at the bullet we just dodged. This would be a mistake. Defeating Trump would not erase the forces that made him possible. As the last few years have shown, those forces, like some virulent cancer, tend to redouble after setback and return stronger than before. You thought George W. Bush was a piece of work? Meet Sarah Palin. You think Sarah Palin was scary? Meet Trump. It would not be a good idea to wait around and see who trumps Donald four years from now. So after Trump, there are things we must do:

1. Confront economic insecurity. We need to elect leaders who understand that corporations are not people; only people are people and they are struggling. Their wages are stagnant, their finances precarious and the wealth that is supposed to trickle down from the grotesquely overfed money pigs at the top always seems to evaporate en route. It is time for this to change. 2. Confront ignorance. It is no coincidence Trump is especially popular among the less well-educated. The less you know, the more fearsome and confounding the world can seem, and the more susceptible you are to the authoritarian figure who promises to make everything all right again. Education must be rescued from the anti-science, anti-history, anti-logic, anti-intellect agendas of conservative school boards around the country. Knowing things is important. Facts matter. 3. Confront bigotry. Stop pretending it doesn’t exist, stop making excuses for it, stop acting as if it will go away if you only ignore it. In our schools, civic groups, mosques, churches and synagogues, we must evolve some

form of truth and reconciliation that allows us to walk through disparate pain up to common ground. Only in this way can we diminish the power of bigotry as a cudgel. 4. Confront fear. Fear is bigotry’s firstborn child. Both are heightened in an era wherein the majority feels itself, its position and prerogatives, under siege by the ascendance of various minorities — racial, religious and sexual. So it becomes ever more important to find strategies that help us to locate in one another our shared humanity. And oh, yes … 5. Confront apathy. Vote. This is how we can change the paradigm, cool the temperature, drain the swamp. Or we can pretend this temper tantrum, this national nervous breakdown, means nothing once Trump is gone. But to embrace that option is to miss the point. Donald Trump is a reflection of the ugliness within us, but only that. The ugliness itself is ours and we are long overdue to face it. The day after he is gone would be an excellent time to start. — Leonard Pitts Jr. is a columnist for the Miami Herald.

Llama owners put their animals to the test By Michael Pearce

“

To me llamas are a lot more attentive (than other types of livestock). They’re very Barber County — social and easy for our kids to work with. Since the days of the Comanche, Kansas’ Gyp Nobody ever gets hurt. It’s all fun.” Associated Press

Hills have been horse country. Many ranchers still depend on steeds to access rugged land for both business and pleasure. The Wichita Eagle reports that recently a different domestic animal traversed the red trails, their long, feathery coats rippling in the hard wind while their nimble hooves barely left a track on soft, bare soil. Llama aficionados came from three states to let their animals do what they were raised to do — be beasts of burden. “Llamas can do about anything a horse can do, except be ridden,” said John Fant, who lives near Fort Smith, Ark., and was part of a llama pack trial near Medicine Lodge. “Some are trained to pull carts, others are bred to show. We’ve got these trained to pack. A lot of llamas can carry 80 pounds, and some can do 100, but that’s quite a bit.” As he spoke, Fant fitted a pair of llamas with rigid pack frames, then soft-sided packs.

She described the pack trial as a qualifying event where

llamas compete against a standard rather than each other. Once they pass required tasks, pertaining to things like maneuvering obstacles, endurance and elevation climbs, llamas can move up to another classification. All 13 llamas completed the five-plus mile course. Nobody was surprised. Sill annually takes her string of llamas to the Rocky Mountains of Wyoming for deep wilderness camping. “One of the reasons llamas interested me was because of my (bad) knees, and they would be a way for me to access areas where I like to backpack,” she said. “They have soft pads on their feet with two toe nails. They’re very easy on trails and don’t contribute much to erosion.” Fant sometimes takes his llamas into the Arkansas Ozarks. “They’re so sure-footed,” he said. “Because of their feet they can go anywhere a goat can go. I know they can go places we can’t get to.” Trial participants agreed that few people are now raising the creatures for the money.

“Twenty years ago people about had to mortgage their house to buy some llamas. Some sold for $10,000,” Fant said. “Now, most are $500 to $1,000.” Some in attendance at the recent trial were given llamas by others who no longer wanted the expense, or trouble, of keeping the animals. Fant said he appreciates the versatility of llamas, adding that some are used as guard animals to keep coyotes and other predators away from sheep and goats. Their wool-like hair also can be sold, though most llama shearing is done to help the animals keep cool when the weather is warm. Pack animals can work from about 4 years of age until they’re about 20 years old. Pack training begins when they’re only a few months old. They learn quickly. “Sometimes you can show a llama something two or three times within a day or two, then come back a year later and they’ll probably remember it,” said Phyllis Fant. “They’re so much more affectionate than most animals, and they all have

Due to the lack of mental health professionals and extensive waiting periods to see a psychiatrist in Lawrence, we would like to offer immediate access to mental health treatment. Collaboration between the patient and psychiatrist creates positive change that either one alone may not be able to achieve.

their own unique personality.” Nathan Abel, of Liberal, grew up exposed to all kinds of livestock. He and his wife, Christina, decided to focus on raising llamas. The main reason is because the animals can easily be handled by their young sons, Christian and Malachi. “To me llamas are a lot more attentive,” he said. “They’re very social and easy for our kids to work with. Nobody ever gets hurt. It’s all fun.” He scoffed at the popular notion that llamas, especially those trained by people, are mean and spit. For proof, he suggested strangers walk up and pet all llamas in the pack line. No spits, kicks or even nervous animals. The Abels said they participate in pack trials because it’s something the entire family can enjoy. “This gives us a chance to just get out someplace where it’s wild and spend time as a family,” Abel said. “It seems like all the llama people we meet are really nice, and really supportive and help each other.” Phyllis Fant said she made the seven-hour drive to the trial because it simply gave her something else to do with her llamas. “You spend much time around these guys and you get llama fever,” she said. “You about can’t help but fall in love with them, they’re so much fun.”

Analysis Downplays the Role of Saturated Fat in Heart Disease An analysis of 72 published studies has found—like other recent studies—that saturated fat may have little or no eﬀect on most people’s risk of coronary heart disease.

Vitamin D may boost survival odds for cancer patients Higher blood levels of vitamin D appear to increase survival times for people with various types of cancer.

Rajiv Chowdhury, MD, PhD, of Cambridge University, United Kingdom, and his colleagues focused on both observational and controlled clinical trials that involved 643,226 subjects. They reported that monosaturated fats were associated with a slight reduction in cardiovascular risk, and that trans fats were related to a greater risk of coronary heart disease risk. However, saturated fats were not associated with either an increased or decreased risk of heart disease.

Hui Wang, MD, PhD, of the Chinese Academy of Sciences in Shanghai, and his colleagues analyzed data from 25 studies that included 17,332 cancer patients. Most of the patients had their vitamin D levels measured before treatment. People with breast cancer, colorectal cancer, and lymphoma who had higher vitamin D levels at the time of diagnosis fared the best. Higher vitamin D levels improved survival of breast cancer patients by 37 percent, colorectal cancer patients by 45 percent, and lymphoma patients by 52 percent.

The ﬁndings, along with those of other recent studies, contradicts the dietary mantra since the 1970s that people should reduce their consumption of saturated fat.

Higher vitamin D levels (compared with patients who had the lowest levels) were also associated with better survival for patients with lung, gastric, and prostate cancers, along with leukemia and melanoma.

“Current evidence does not clearly support cardiovascular guidelines that encourage high consumption of polyunsaturated fatty acids and low consumption of total saturated fats,” wrote Chowdhury and his colleagues.

Rivals blame Trump for mayhem at rallies Kasich says he has created a ‘toxic environment’ Maureen Groppe, David Jackson and Aamer Madhani USA TODAY

Donald Trump’s rivals — inside and outside his own party — are blaming the Republican frontrunner and his incendiary rhetoric for the violence erupting at his campaign events and hinting that they might not be able to support him if he becomes the nominee.

IMMIGRATION

Voters in Iowa carry signs protesting Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump’s stance on immigration.

ELECTION PUTS SPOTLIGHT ON IMMIGRATION REFORM And no matter which party wins, change is likely

Daniel González and Dan Nowicki The Arizona Republic

Heyward Haltiwanger has nothing against immigrants. But he vehemently opposes immigrants who come to the United States illegally. “The United States is a nation of immigrants,” said Haltiwanger, who traces his family’s roots in South Carolina back to the early 18th century. “Illegal. That is the key word. If they are legal and they are participating in society, they are as welcome as anyone else,” said Haltiwanger, a 67-year-old retired auto mechanic from Chapin, S.C. “Illegal is breaking the law.”

His attitude is frequently echoed by supporters of Donald Trump, the Republican presidential front-runner whose tough stance against illegal immigration has made it a key issue this campaign season and helped rocket him to the front of the GOP field. Regardless of who wins the White House, the election could be decisive regarding the nation’s broken immigration system. The winner will be able to either push for reforms that bring out of the shadows the estimated 11.3 million undocumented immigrants living in the United States — as the Democratic candidates have promised — or order their deportation en masse, as Trump and fellow Republican Ted Cruz have vowed. Trump has driven the debate

with intemperate comments. In the process he has pushed his Republican rivals to take harder stances on the issue to appeal to the party’s most passionate voters. However, almost paradoxically, some predict the nomination of a hard-liner could be the best thing for the prospects of immigration reform, or at least for Washington to take action on the long-festering issue. Trump’s critics anticipate his alienation of many Latino voters could backfire at the polls on Nov. 8, possibly even flipping control of the Senate back to Democrats. Given the strong pro-reform positions of Democratic contenders Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sandv STORY CONTINUES ON 2B

ISIL unleashes chemical attacks on town, Iraqis say Doug Stanglin USA TODAY

Islamic State forces attacked an Iraqi town at least twice last week with mortars containing an unidentified chemical, killing a 3year-old girl and wounding or driving out hundreds of people, Iraqi officials said, according to media reports. In the latest attack, the town of Taza, near the northern city of Kirkuk, was hit early Saturday, the Associated Press reported, quoting security and hospital officials. “There is fear and panic among

the women and children,” Adel Hussein, a local official, told the AP. “They’re calling for the central government to save them.” Hussein said a German and an American forensics team arrived in the area to test for the presence of chemical agents. The wounded are suffering from infected burns, suffocation and dehydration, said Helmi Hamdi, a nurse at the Taza hospital. He said eight people were sent to Baghdad for treatment. Officials in Taza said some 400 residents were exposed to the chemical in the first attack on Tuesday, The Wall Street Journal reported.

He said the 3-year-old victim, Fatima Wais, died of kidney and lung failure. The chemical was still being analyzed, but symptoms were consistent with exposure to mustard agent or chlorine, an Iraqi provincial forensic expert said, according to The Journal.

HOW WE GOT HERE

NICK OZA, THE ARIZONA REPUBLIC

THE MANY ATTEMPTS TO REFORM IMMIGRATION, SECURE THE BORDER

Daniel González and Dan Nowicki l The Arizona Republic

mmigration has become a flashpoint in the presidential race. Candidates have debated how to address the approximately 11 million undocumented immigrants living in the U.S., secure the nation’s borders and create a system that encourages legal immigration that is more responsive to labor and economic needs. Here is a look back at major immigration laws, proposals and political developments that led to this point. OCT. 3, 1965

President Lyndon Johnson signs the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965, passed by the Democratic-controlled Congress. Immigration to the U.S. shifts dramatically, with more people coming from Latin America, Asia and Africa. The law replaced the old U.S. quota system based on national origin.

NOVEMBER 1986

President Ronald Reagan signs the Immigration Reform and Control Act, also known as the 1986 “amnesty,” allowing roughly 2.7 million undocumented immigrants to legalize their status. The legislation for the first time creates sanctions for employers who knowingly hire or recruit immigrants not authorized to work.

NOVEMBER 1994

California voters pass Proposition 187, banning illegal immigrants from receiving health care, public education and other social services. Passed in response to a surge in the state’s illegal-immigrant population, it was challenged in courts, ruled unconstitutional and never took effect.

AUGUST/ SEPTEMBER 1996

President Bill Clinton signs the Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Act and the Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act as part of an overhaul of the nation’s welfare and immigration systems. The first bill blocks legal immigrants, in addition to illegal immigrants, from receiving food stamps and other public benefits. Some benefits are later restored to legal immigrants. The second bill is aimed at stemming rising illegal immigration and beefing up border security.

FEBRUARY 2001

President George W. Bush meets with Mexican President Vicente Fox to discuss a possible migration accord. Key points called for allowing illegal immigrants to gain legal status and creating a guest-worker program allowing more Mexicans to come legally to the U.S. to work. The accord is dashed by the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks. The USA Patriot Act broadened terrorism grounds for excluding people from other countries from entering the U.S. and increased monitoring of international students.

DECEMBER 2005

House passes the Border Protection, Anti-terrorism and Illegal Immigration Control Act. Cosponsored by U.S. Reps. James Sensenbrenner, R-Wis., and Peter King, R-N.Y., the bill is intended to help crack down on illegal immigration by declaring immigration violations felony crimes rather than civil offenses. It also beefs up border security and worksite enforcement. It ignites massive protests across the country. The bill fails in the Senate.

MARCH/APRIL, 2006

More than 100,000 immigrants and supporters marched in Chicago to protest the “Sensenbrenner bill,” saying it would turn maids, busboys and cooks into criminals for violating immigration laws. The Chicago march led to more protests nationwide. On April 10, in the largest singleday protest in U.S. history, hundreds of thousands of people march in more than 100 cities to press Congress to reject the Sensenbrenner bill and instead pass reforms that include a program to let millions of undocumented immigrants legalize their status.

MAY 25, 2006

Senate passes the Comprehensive Immigration Reform Act, a bipartisan bill. It increased border security and immigration enforcement, created a broad guest-worker program and included a program to legalize millions of undocumented immigrants. It failed in the House.

2007

Secure Borders, Economic Opportunity and Immigration Reform Act, a more conservative version of the failed Comprehensive Immigration Reform Act, was introduced. It included a legalization program for undocumented immigrants but required them to return to home countries before applying for permanent residency.

JULY 14-15, 2008

Speaking in San Diego, then-Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., the presumptive Democratic nominee for president, promises the National Council of La Raza, a Hispanic civil-rights organization, that he would make comprehensive immigration reform a “top

priority” of his first year in the White House.

APRIL 23, 2010

Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer signs Senate Bill 1070, a tough immigration-enforcement measure meant to drive illegal immigrants out and discourage more from coming primarily by requiring local officials to help federal authorities identify illegal immigrants so they could be deported. It sparked nationwide protests and rallies, boycotts and legal battles and ignited a national debate over the role of local and state governments in enforcing federal immigration laws. Other states passed similar versions.

JUNE 15, 2012

Obama announces a new policy to let “dreamers” brought to the U.S. illegally as children to apply for deportation deferments, a way of remaining in the country temporarily without the threat of deportation. Obama characterized the policy as a stopgap measure until Congress could pass more permanent solutions, such as the Dream Act.

v CONTINUED FROM 1B

ers, Republicans would welcome the opportunity to get the issue off the table once and for all, the Trump critics say. But even if Trump or another Republican wins the White House, he would be expected to make immigration enforcement an early priority. When the time came to implement it, however, Trump likely would face a less-enthusiastic Congress and would have to negotiate to get much of it through. “This is obviously his signature issue,” said Mark Krikorian, executive director of the Center for Immigration Studies, a think tank that pushes for more immigration enforcement and less overall immigration. “I don’t have any question, if he were elected, he would be pretty hawkish on immigration enforcement. If he weren’t, he would be undercutting a big part of his appeal for his voters.”

NOV. 6, 2012

Obama wins re-election with more than 70% of the Latino vote. Their overwhelming support for Obama over Republican Mitt Romney prompted many Republican leaders to begin calling for immigration reforms.

JAN. 28, 2013

A bipartisan group unveils a comprehensive immigration-reform framework calling for a path to citizenship for undocumented immigrants contingent on securing the border. Their legislation passes the Senate later in the year but does not become law after failing in the Republican-controlled House of Representatives.

NOV. 20, 2014

Obama uses his executive authority to expand deportation deferments for dreamers and offer deportation deferments to undocumented parents with children who are U.S. citizens or legal residents. The programs are put on hold after states file a lawsuit claiming Obama acted illegally. The Supreme Court is considering whether to rule on the suit.

ABOUT THE ONE NATION FORUMS

Latino voters may have deciding voice

JOHN MOORE, GETTY IMAGES

Citizenship Now! assists immigrants in New York rusing to beat the election.

But some immigration advocates are confident that Trump, as a 2016 Republican presidential nominee, would receive an even sounder thumping in the general election than Mitt Romney got in 2012. Romney won just 27% of the Latino vote in the 2012 general election. But Republican efforts to get immigration off the table before the current election led to a major, but ultimately unsuccessful, bipartisan push for reform in 2013. “Believe it or not, the way this election is unfolding makes immigration reform more likely, because I think it’s going to be a replay of 2012, but on steroids,” said Frank Sharry, executive director of America’s Voice, an organization that champions comprehensive immigration reform. “What’s happening now is

the Republican Party is swinging even further to the right in the primary, and it’s going to hurt them even more in the general election,” Sharry said. “... I suspect in 2017, you’re going to see the Republicans suing for peace on immigration reform.” The GOP can’t continue to defy the demographic realities of the United States and prosper, Sharry predicted. According to the Pew Research Center, 27.3 million Latinos will be eligible to vote in this year’s election. The Latino population also is young: 44% of the eligible voters are Millennials. If Trump’s campaign crashes in the general election, these advocates say, it could set the stage for congressional action on immigration reforms. Rosalva Hernandez views Trump’s tough stance on immigration as a slap in the face to immigrants like her who she says perform jobs Americans are unwilling to do. The 39-year-old Mexican immigrant came to the U.S illegally 13 years ago but is now a legal resident. She hopes to become a citizen in time to vote in November. She earns $12.50 an hour milking cows at a farming community in northwest Iowa. She typically works five 8hour shifts that start at dawn, followed by a 12-hour shift on Saturday. When she was pregnant with her third child, she worked two jobs, packing bacon at a processing plant from 3 p.m. to 11 p.m. and milking cows from 11 p.m. to 7 a.m. until the day she delivered. “I did that every day with two to three hours of sleep,” Hernandez says. “Would white people do that? No, they would not do that.” Krikorian agrees there will be a big push by Republicans to pass immigration reforms if Trump wins the nomination but loses in November, especially if he loses to Clinton. “If it’s Hillary (Clinton) vs. Trump and Hillary wins big, thumpingly big, you are going to see a real push to get this issue off the table,” Krikorian said. Not that he thinks that’s how the race will turn out. “The same people who are telling us that Hillary is going to win big are the same people who have been telling us that Trump was going to fizzle out in August,” Krikorian said.

Protester rushes stage at Trump rally in Ohio

Cooper Allen @coopallen USA TODAY

Police intervene; later, GOP leader defends supporters

It was an action-packed week, with primaries and debates ahead of Tuesday’s critical round of contests in Florida, Ohio and elsewhere. Top news from the world of politics: TRUMP HOPES HE HASN’T ENCOURAGED VIOLENCE GOP front-runner Donald Trump scored decisive wins in Michigan, Mississippi and Hawaii. But on Friday his campaign canceled a Chicago rally amid fears of violence, triggering confrontations between supporters, protesters and police. Thursday, Trump was asked whether he worried his rhetoric had encouraged these types of acts. “I truly hope not,” he said, adding that those attending his rallies “come with tremendous passion and love for the country” as well as “anger.” He said he did not “condone” violence.

Chrissie Thompson and Chris Graves The Cincinnati Enquirer VANDALIA , OHIO

A man who was “yelling and flailing his arms” tried to rush the stage at Donald Trump’s first Ohio rally this weekend, hours after scuffles between supporters and protesters helped to cancel a Trump event in Chicago. The man jumped a barrier surrounding the stage where the GOP front-runner spoke, but was tackled by law enforcement officers, said Dayton Police K-9 officer Nathan Spelman. People in the audience cried out, and several security officers were seen jumping onto the stage around Trump. He then told the audience of thousands: “Thank

suburban Cincinnati. “Just to see Americans slugging themselves at a political rally deeply disturbed me. We’re better than that.” At the Dayton-area event, Trump defended his supporters. “These are people that want to make America great again,” Trump said. “A planned attack just came out of nowhere. ... “They want me to tell my people: ‘Please be nice.’ My people are nice. ... They caused no problem. ... They were harassed by these other people.” Trump then mocked his opponents. “They all said: ‘At our rallies we would never have anything like that.’ Well, they don’t have any people at their rallies,” Trump said. “We cannot let our First Amendment rights be taken away from us, folks. We have a right to speak. We are law-abiding people. ... We want to get along with everybody.” Contributing: Visual journalist Kareem Elgazaar.

OBAMA CRACKS 2016 JOKES AT DINNER FOR TRUDEAU White House state dinners are certainly serious affairs, but that doesn’t mean a head of state can’t work in a joke or two. At Thursday’s dinner honoring Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, President Obama got in digs at two of the candidates seeking to replace him. Joking about Texas Sen. Ted Cruz’s Canadian birth, Obama extolled the opportunities the United States and Canada both offered. “After all, where else could a boy born in Calgary grow up to run for president of the United States?” He also worked in a jab at Trump. “To the great credit of their people, Canadians from British Columbia to New Brunswick have, so far, rejected the idea of building a wall to keep out your southern neighbors. “We appreciate that. We can be unruly, I know.” RUBIO CAMPAIGN TO OHIO BACKERS: VOTE FOR KASICH It seems Marco Rubio has concluded his best bet to keep his nomination hopes alive may be for his supporters to vote for one of his rivals, at least in Ohio. On Friday, Rubio indicated voters in Ohio would likely back Gov. John Kasich if they were determined to stop Trump. “John Kasich is the one candidate in Ohio that can beat Donald Trump,” Rubio spokesman Alex Conant said on CNN. “That’s stating the obvious.” Contributing: David Jackson

In August 2012, Ohio Gov. John Kasich stood in the well of the Republican National Convention hall and excitedly played his part in the official roll call of states, declaring: “Ohio casts all of its 66 delegation votes to the next president and vice president, Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan.” This election, Kasich has a different idea about how that roll call should go — less orderly coronation, more bitter free-for-all. That’s because Kasich increasingly sees a contested convention as his best, or only, chance of winning the GOP nomination. And he’s not alone in talking up the possibility, as Republican power brokers across the country scramble for a way to stop New York billionaire Donald Trump from becoming the party’s standard-bearer. Ben Ginsberg, who was chief counsel for the Bush-Cheney presidential campaigns and Mitt Romney’s 2008 and 2012 White House bids, said a contested convention is “improbable by historical standards, but more possible this cycle than any time most people can remember.” “I understand everyone is getWASHINGTON

HOW A CONTESTED GOP CONVENTION MIGHT WORK ting a little breathless here,” Ginsberg said. “(But) it’s still most likely that the party goes into Cleveland with someone having wrapped up a majority of the delegates. Nonetheless, campaigns fail to prepare for a contested convention at their peril.” Here’s how a contested convention might work, and whether Kasich could really win that way: WHAT WOULD TRIGGER A CONTESTED CONVENTION?

A Republican candidate needs to win a majority of the 2,472 GOP delegates — at least 1,237 — to become the nominee. Trump or another GOP contender could rack up that number in the primaries unfolding now. If no candidate has reached that threshold when the last primary is over on June 7, then July’s Republican convention in Cleveland will be a political junkie’s dream — and the GOP’s nightmare. If Trump or another GOP candidate is close to the magic number, he could try to persuade the “unbound delegates” — those who because of party rules are

not required to support a specific candidate — to vote for him before the roll call begins. The number of unbound delegates is not yet clear, but it could be a few hundred people. That’s what happened in 1976, when Gerald Ford rallied uncommitted delegates to his side before the first round of voting and beat out Ronald Reagan without too much fanfare. But if no one wins 1,237 delegates after the first vote in Cleveland, then all the delegates become free agents. The contenders would engage in a fierce lobbying battle for delegates. There would be a second round of voting — and possibly more — until one candidate snagged a majority. “It would probably be pretty ugly,” says Josh Putnam, a political science lecturer at the University of Georgia. “I doubt it breaks into fistfights, but they call it a floor fight for a reason.” CAN THE GOP ESTABLISHMENT INFLUENCE THE OUTCOME?

Unlike the 1920 convention, in

which a group of U.S. senators settled on a colleague, Warren G. Harding of Ohio, in what was literally a smoke-filled room, there are no “party bosses” who could wield that kind of power. “The power players have no power,” says Stephen Hess, a Brookings Institution expert on the presidency and the press. “The theme of this whole year has been anti-establishment.” Tuesday’s primaries in Ohio and Florida will be a pivotal moment for the Republicans’ “Stop Trump” campaign, with GOP leaders hoping Kasich can win his state’s 66 delegates and Florida Sen. Marco Rubio can snatch up the Sunshine State’s 99 delegates. COULD KASICH WIN AT A CONTESTED CONVENTION?

Putnam says Kasich’s path to the nomination “is so narrow at this point as to be invisible.” Hess was more charitable. “He’s run the whole campaign without making enemies, without attacking others,” he noted. “He would be the sort of candidate that the others could unite around.”

IN BRIEF POLICE: 6 SKIERS DEAD IN ALPS AVALANCHE

An avalanche struck high in the Italian Alps on Saturday, killing six back country skiers as others looked on in horror as a swath of snow hundreds of yards meters wide cascaded down, according to an Associated Press report. Helicopters ferried both the survivors and the bodies back to the valley floor from the avalanche site, located just a few hundred yards shy of Monte Nevoso’s 11,017-foot peak, the AP reported. The mountain is not far from the Austrian border in Italy’s Alto Adige region. The dead were among a group of expert back country skiers climbing above the tree line to the mountain crest and then skiing down. The cause of the midday avalanche was not immediately known, the AP reported. Police in Bolzano and Brunico confirmed the deaths while the news agency ANSA, quoting rescuers, said one other person was injured in the avalanche and eight others survived unharmed. It said the group included Austrians and Italians.

A man on a snowmobile purposely drove into two dog teams competing in the Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race early Saturday morning, killing one dog and injuring at least three others, officials said.

Mushers Aliy Zirkle and Jeff King were attacked outside the village of Nulato, a community of 236 on the Yukon River a little more than halfway into the 1,000mile race to Nome, the AP reported. A suspect has been identified by a village police officer.

A spokesman for the conservative outlet Breitbart has stepped down, citing the website’s treatment of a reporter who said she was manhandled by Donald Trump’s campaign manager. “When you reach a point where you can’t give 100% to people you represent it’s not tenable to continue representing them,” Kurt Bardella tweeted Friday. He told CNN that Breitbart hadn’t supported Michelle Fields, a Breitbart reporter who said her arm was yanked by Trump’s campaign manager as she was trying to ask Trump a question Tuesday. “Trump acknowledged the question, but before he could answer I was jolted backwards,” Fields has written. The campaign denied the accusation and tried to discredit Fields. Bardella said Breitbart has been looking for a reason to disprove the incident, when all the evidence strongly suggests Fields’ version is accurate. “I just disagree with the course of which they’ve been covering this,” he told CNN. — Maureen Groppe

In Greece, crisis yields compassion

Refugee camp brings disruption to village — and a co-existence Nikolia Apostolou Special for USA TODAY

IDOMENI, Greece — Walking past his village’s main square, Antonis Zois stares at the Syrian refugee families filling their water bottles at the public fountain. “The camp is not a place for a human being to live,” said Zois, 85, waving at a young girl in a red polka-dot jacket. “We always had migrants passing through, but I’ve never seen a situation like this.” Zois pointed to a makeshift camp that was built for 2,000 refugees waiting to cross into Macedonia but now holds more than 13,000 migrants with nowhere to go because the border crossings to northern Europe are blocked. This rural region of northern Greece is traditionally more conservative and nationalistic than the south, and many villagers here don’t like having migrants next to their homes. But with women and children making up more than half of the migrants, it’s difficult for residents to remain hard-hearted. “Some of our ancestors were also refugees coming from eastern Thrace in 1922,” said Zois, referring to an area near the Bulgarian and Turkish borders. “It was destroyed a few times in its history, with the last being during the Greek Civil War, when many houses burnt down. So we try to understand.” Idomeni has fewer than 130 people, mostly older farmers. The school closed 20 years ago because of a lack of children. With no available jobs or much social activity, most residents abandoned this hamlet. The district of Kilkis, which includes Idomeni, hosts 20,000 of the 30,000 migrants stranded in Greece. More than 100,000 migrants are expected to arrive in Greece this month, according to European Union Commissioner for Immigration Dimitris Avramopoulos. That surpasses the district’s population of 80,000. Mayor Christos Goudedoudis told a local radio station that he’s worried about the well-being of Idomeni residents if the number of migrants continues to rise. He is also concerned about the migrants’ living conditions.

“During the summer, my wife would make a cake and give it out to little kids. Then ... she’d come home and start crying.” Christos Souflis, a government employee

“Some refugees have been sleeping in my fields,” Zois said, glancing at the camp from his porch. “I’ve sowed my field with my son, but I don’t think we’ll be making bread this year.” Across the way, Sakis Papadopoulos opened the trunk of his white truck to display his merchandise — onions, potatoes, razor blades and cutlery. Papadopoulos said selling goods is his only opportunity to make a living — and refugees are his new customers. Potatoes and onions go for $2 a pound; a bag of salt is 55 cents. “Nisf euros (1.5 euros), my friend,” Papadopoulos said to a Syrian refugee using the few Arabic words he has learned. The Syrian man bargains hard, while holding his child by the hand. “OK, OK take it,” Papadopoulos

said, giving up. “You have to feed your kid, what can I do?” he continues in Greek without expecting an answer. Although Papadopoulos is illegally selling goods — often overpriced — he’s filling a demand not provided by authorities or aid groups. And in this town hit hard by Greece’s severe economic crisis, the migrants offer a chance for residents to earn some money. Every morning, migrants in the camp are given a sandwich, and in the afternoon they get another one. Tired of the fare, migrants shop at dozens of cars with open trunks selling food and other necessities. A young refugee comes up and puts 15 euros ($16.50) in Papadopoulos’ hand. The vendor smiles but is too busy to talk as a crowd of

impatient customers arrive. “He owed me 15 euros from yesterday,” Papadopoulos explained afterward. “I didn’t know if I’d ever get the money back. But these people, they don’t try to steal from me. They want to bargain but don’t accept anything for free.” Papadopoulos also keeps candy in his pocket for the children. That is free. Christos Souflis, 53, a government employee who splits his time between Thessaloniki and Idomeni, is a little annoyed by the crowd outside his house, but he says many residents are especially moved by the plight of the children. “During the summer, my wife would make a cake and give it out to little kids. Then at night she’d come home and start crying,” Souflis said. “She’s stopped coming with me here. She’s so upset by all of this.” Daily discussions in the village now revolve around the migrants. Neighbors talk about how many pots they have given away, or who they saw today or share their latest anecdotes about the newcomers. “Did you ever expect we’d experience such a situation in our village?” Souflis asked. “I don’t believe the borders will open. The Austrians have convinced the other Balkan countries to shut down their borders, too. But these people are not going to go back. They are determined.”

Drought-stricken Ethiopians desperate for aid As wars elsewhere dominate the news, their children starve Sophie Cousins

Special for USA TODAY

FENTALE, Ethiopia — Sitting in the blistering sun as she cradles her 2-month-old baby, Genet Tamisat is one of hundreds of mothers waiting to have their children checked for malnutrition, as Ethiopia faces its worst drought in decades. “I have nothing to eat at home. I can’t even buy maize by myself,” said Tamisat, who also has a 4year-old son. “People can look at us and think we’re OK, but we are in great danger. We have nothing.” Despite the crisis confronting Tamisat and millions of other Ethiopians lacking food and drinking water, a world caught up in strife is paying insufficient attention to their plight, because it is distracted by other urgent needs. The government and the United Nations are trying to raise $1.4 billion to feed 10.2 million Ethiopians, but only half has come through so far, as the wars in Syria and Yemen and the migrant crisis dominate the news. “Fundraising for this response has been very slow,” said Chege Ngugi, national director of the charity ChildFund Ethiopia. “My priority is to support the efforts of the government of Ethiopia to save lives, but we’re not reaching everybody.” A strong El Niño has blocked two consecutive rainy seasons during which crops that feed 85% of the country are normally nourished. The drought has forced the government to find additional food aid from the United States and other donors. The U.S. Agency for Interna-

tional Development dispatched an response team to Ethiopia to provide emergency assistance that includes nearly $4 million in corn and wheat seeds for more than 200,000 families. Here in the Oromia region, which includes central Ethiopia, the land is arid as far as the eye can see. Animal carcasses — some fresh, some old — are scattered across patches of dusty earth. Humanitarian needs in this Horn of Africa country have tripled since the start of 2015 as the situation deteriorates. Malnutrition rates in the

worst-affected areas have surpassed 20% — higher than the World Health Organization’s emergency threshold of 15%, said Challiss McDonough, regional spokeswoman for the U.N.’s World Food Programme. This year, the food program will help more than 2 million children, pregnant women and breast-feeding mothers suffering from moderate acute malnutrition. The U.N.’s children’s fund, UNICEF, estimates that almost 500,000 children need treatment for severe acute malnutrition.

“Even with interventions, the situation is getting worse,” said Eyoel Lemma, who works at ChildFund Ethiopia in Fentale. He said ChildFund, with help from the U.N., also provides supplementary food and malnutrition treatment to children under age 5. But that becomes a major difficulty as families migrate to different areas looking for water and pasture for their livestock, as well as to find jobs. As a result, many people miss out on the food rationing programs. One woman on the move is Haso Bultum, 27. After hours of walking in the sun across barren mountains, she reached a rural health care facility in Fentale

with her malnourished 9-monthold twins. “It’s very hard. I’ve had no sleep, because we’re trying to find some food for our cattle,” she said. “To save ourselves we’re constantly moving.” While Ethiopia has the fastestgrowing economy in the world and has lifted millions of citizens out of poverty, 80% of Ethiopians are still dependent on agriculture. McDonough from the World Fund Programme warned that her organization could run out of food within two months. “We have been calling for urgent funding for months now, and still have only about a quarter of the resources that we need for the next six months. Unless we receive significant new funding very soon, we could start running out of food for relief assistance by May,” McDonough said. Samuel Ferfu, manager of the Children’s and Family Charitable Organization in Fentale, said another major issue is the lack of access to water. Almost 6 million people need emergency water, according to UNICEF. “There’s no water at all — the river is dry,” he said. “No water makes sanitation impossible, and as a result, the prevalence of disease will increase.” Ethiopians are praying that rain will reach the worst-affected areas, but flooding is a serious risk after a lengthy drought. “Soon the rain will come, and people’s worries will be rising. But they have nothing except their homes to lose. They’ve already lost all their animals and crops,” said Lemma from ChildFund Ethiopia. For Tamisat, 27, and her young children, talk of rain in the coming months is a false hope. “We have no water and no food,” she said, wiping sweat off her forehead. “I don’t know what is coming for the future, but I have no hope about the rain.”

Special for USA TODAY LAS VEGAS Wearables and other connected devices have been available to help treat chronic conditions such as asthma and heart disease for a while now. But thus far, the nation’s 30 million diabetics haven’t seen much to help them improve their health or reduce the daily grind of finger pricks and needle pokes. The $2.5 billion connectedcare industry may be off to a late start in diabetes, but it’s making up for lost time. A new breed of connected glucometers, insulin pumps and smartphone apps is hitting the market. They promise to make it easier for diabetics to manage the slow-progressing disease and keep them motivated with feedback and support.

In as little as two years, the industry plans to take charge of the entire routine of regulating bloodsugar levels with an artificial pancreas. Such systems mimic the functions of a healthy pancreas by blending continuous glucose monitoring, remote-controlled insulin pumps and artificial intelligence to maintain healthy blood-sugar levels. For Jeroen Tas, CEO of Philips’ Connected Care and Health Informatics unit, diabetes management is personal: His daughter Kim is diabetic. “I have seen my daughter struggle with her condition for 13 years and I am aware there are 400 million other people that live with diabetes,” he said. “I am happy that we can contribute to a real solution to manage her condition.” Philips showcased its prototype diabetes management app, which helps patients track their condition and share data, insights and feedback, at a recent healthtech trade show in Las Vegas. You might think companies would have targeted diabetes care ahead of other chronic conditions. Diabetics in the U.S. outnumber Americans with asthma, congestive heart failure, COPD and depression. And if you count the country’s 86 million pre-diabetics, they even exceed the 70

Philips’ prototype diabetes management app helps patients track their condition. Above, Insulet’s Omnipod insulin pump. million Americans with highblood pressure, according to the Centers for Disease Control. One reason for the slow adoption is diabetes is much more difficult to take on with technology. “Diabetes is a more complex disease than COPD, heart failure and asthma,” said Dr. Nick van Terheyden, Dell’s chief medical officer. “The cost savings take much longer to accrue. It takes years of poor management for severe, expensive complications to show up. And better management doesn’t pay off nearly as quickly. “For example, with heart failure, simply monitoring for weight gain can give an early warning that a patient is headed for hospitalization, and medication adjustments can often head that off,” van Terheyden said. “So there is a big, immediate savings with a fairly simple input.” Steve Burger of AT&T agreed.

Technology from a South San Francisco startup could eliminate the need for finger pricks altogether. Profusa announced in January a series of implant devices that can be used to continuously measure glucose and other blood chemistry elements. The devices, which are about a tenth of an inch long, are injected under the skin and can provide measurements for up to two years with the aid of a special reader and a smartphone app. Dexcom, a glucose monitor supplier, is developing disposable eye contacts that continuously measure glucose levels with Verily, the connected health arm of Alphabet. The pair hope to have the devices ready in 2018. Medtronic already offers an injectable sensor that monitors glucose levels. Patients need to calibrate the system several times a day, so it doesn’t eliminate fingerpricks. But it can help Type 1 diabetics avoid dangerously low blood sugar. Medtronic and IBM have partnered on an app that predicts hypoglycemic events up to three hours ahead of time. And there is more good news on the horizon, with several efforts underway to build artificial pancreas systems. Insulet, an insulin pump supplier, and Mode Automated Glucose Control said they will be working with researchers to produce a system. They hope to begin clinical trials later this year. “I do think the continuous glucose monitoring is a lot closer than some believe,” said van Terheyden.

Telecom investors looking for growth this year may find it in a surprising place. Among the four largest U.S. wireless operators, it’s the oldest that’s seen growing its top line the most in 2016. Thanks to an aggressive streak

of overseas acquisitions, AT&T is expected by Wall Street to boost revenue faster than Verizon, T-Mobile or Sprint. That makes it the best choice for telecom growth investors. What’s more, AT&T also pays the richest dividend in the U.S. telecom sector, at 5%. That’s slightly higher than Verizon’s 4.4% dividend. Sprint and T-Mobile, which are investing heavily in their networks to catch up with their two larger rivals, pay no dividend at all. Yet AT&T is boosting sales faster than either of them, with Wall Street expecting revenue up 14% this year, to $168 billion, according to analysts polled by Thomson Financial. That’s faster than the 9% growth expected from T-Mobile,

the No. 3 carrier. Verizon sales are seen flat in 2016, and Sprint’s revenue is expected to fall 6%. AT&T’s higher top line also is expected to drive a slightly-higher profit, as its average earningsper-share estimate for this year is $2.85, up from $2.71 in 2015. Verizon’s profit is seen flat at $3.99 a share. AT&T’s strategy has risks, to be sure. Chief among them is maintaining and improving customer service at acquired companies such as DirecTV and Nextel Mexico. And it isn’t the only telecom giant moving aggressively. T-Mobile has said it will spend up to $10 billion on wireless spectrum this year. This week the company secured $2 billion in funding from selling notes to its largest investor, Deutsche Tele-

kom, to further that goal. T-Mobile is expected to post much higher profit in 2016 — $1.35 a share versus 82 cents last year. Yet its stock also is pricier compared with its larger rivals, with a price-to-earnings ratio of 29 for 2016 and 18 for 2017. That’s more than the forwardlooking P/E of 13 for both AT&T and Verizon. That makes AT&T a better play than T-Mobile this year for both growth and value investors. And thanks to its rich dividend, better for income investors as well. While those with an aggressive growth philosophy may want to bet on T-Mobile’s long-term strategy, AT&T looks from here to be the best telecom stock this year for growth investors.

However, he told me if I would give him $500 he could get my scores up to 620 or better in 30 days or less. Would that be a wise decision to give him my money?

$500 to spike your credit score, you aren’t beating the system, sticking it to the man or tricking the bank. No, you would be paying someone $500 to possibly ruin your financial life. Buying a house when you objectively shouldn’t — and someone with a 595 objectively shouldn’t — is the American nightmare. If you haven’t already asked yourself a series of very uncomfortable questions, allow me to fill that void. Is your poor credit score the only factor that would make homeownership difficult for you? Does paying someone $500 fix your structural issues, or does it just boost a made-up number? Did you earn your low credit score? BE HONEST WITH YOURSELF

No one ever tricks the banks. Instead, people tend to trick themselves. Most banks would say no to you right now, and that’s exactly why you’re trying to change the no. But there’s a big difference between improving your finances to get a yes and improving your credit score to get a yes. Fighting through a bank’s no by manipulating your credit score is a recipe for disaster. No one likes being

ARE YOU GETTING REMARRIED? SET UP A FINANCIAL PLAN FIRST

Robert Powell

Special to USA TODAY

Planning on getting remarried? You’re not alone. Consider: In 2013, four in 10 new marriages included at least one partner who had been married before, and two in 10 new marriages were between people who had both previously stepped down the aisle, according to a Pew Research Center study. Unfortunately, most people who get remarried have no clue about the legal and estate-planning issues that come with a new marriage, according to a new article by Jeff Scroggin, an attorney with Scroggin & Company in Roswell, Ga. They do little planning, and ultimately that just increases the conflict and chaos that often occurs down the road ... when death us do part, according to Scroggin. “Most people do not understand that marriage automatically gives significant rights to the new spouse and have never heard of spousal elective shares or homestead rights or contemplated the impact of their remarriage when they pass away,” Scroggin says. “The reality is consumers just don’t like dealing with personal legal planning, whether it is a prenuptial agreement, estate plan or anything else,” said Martin Shenkman, an attorney in Paramus, N.J., and co-author of The Tools & Techniques of Estate Planning. “I think the displeasure of the process, and secondly the cost, is what detracts most people from doing what they should.”

told no. Additionally, no one likes being told they aren’t good enough. I know that’s how you probably feel right now. It’s not much different than being a kid at an amusement park. Like every kid who’s ever been to an amusement park, I abhorred the “You must be this tall to ride this ride” signs. As a kid, you can’t get your mind around the idea that the height limit is designed to save your life, not crush your dreams. Every kid who has ever stood under one of those signs has stood on their tip-toes, but no kid ever paid someone $500 to appear taller. Here’s what I know about people with 595 credit scores: The credit score is the tip of the iceberg. Are the factors that helped create your low credit score fixed, or are they swept under the rug? If your problems were fixed, your credit score would likely be higher and you wouldn’t be paying someone five C-notes to make them look fixed. Your situation illustrates both the glory and stupidity of credit scores. A bad credit score does mean you shouldn’t borrow, but unfortunately, a good credit score doesn’t mean you should borrow. I’ve encountered way too many financial disasters with great credit scores. Those awful credit scores are what allow the disasters to dig a deeper and deeper hole. Credit scores are a tool to induce borrowing. If they are designed to help people borrow, and yours is poor, do not borrow. Jim, you need to evaluate the

importance of homeownership in relation to your need for financial stability. The two aren’t interchangeable pieces. They aren’t players in the chicken-and-egg epic. Financial stability will allow you to become a homeowner. Being a homeowner will not allow you to become financially stable. A financially stable person ignores his or her credit score. You haven’t earned that right. TAKE THE FIRST STEP

In order to make the score go up, you must demonstrate healthy credit habits. Obtain a secured credit card. You can use the $500 you were going to pay that one guy and establish a credit line that you can access and repay monthly. Upon doing that perfectly for 12 months, your credit score will be vastly improved, and you will have picked up some new skills and habits. Alas, all is not lost, Jim. Your gut feeling was right. Paying someone $500 to make your credit score go up, whether it actually goes up or not, is a bad idea. You will become a homeowner someday. Hopefully, it will be after you’ve created some much-needed stability. The next time you think about a strategy to improve your chances at homeownership, simply ask yourself: Am I trying to improve my finances or improve my credit score?

AUTOMATIC RIGHTS For example, Scroggin says some of the rights that a spouse automatically gains upon marriage might include (depending on the state): uA right to be the guardian for the other spouse. uThe right to be the personal representative of a deceased spouse. uA right to an “elective share” percentage of the other spouse’s estate — generally ranging from 30% to 50% of the estate.

uA right to a homestead dollar amount or the ownership or use of the house. uA right to personal property of the deceased spouse, including heirloom assets. uAn automatic right to be a beneficiary of the deceased spouse’s ERISA accounts. uA right to be supported under state filial support laws.

GAME PLAN So, if you plan on getting remarried, or already have, here’s what you should do. CONSULT AN EXPERT

“People considering a remarriage should meet with competent counsel to understand what their rights are and how to limit those rights and powers,” Scroggin says. GET A PRENUP

COMSTOCK/GETTY IMAGES

“Yes, it can be advisable, particularly if they have a home or business they want to pass to their descendants from a prior relationship, or the intent is that each spouse will retain the right to pass on their personal investments and property to their respective descendants,” Scroggin says. “Merely having an understanding or oral agreement is not a legally binding obligation — properly signed waivers are critical.” A prenup is worth getting even if you’re not rich. “Some might feel that their assets are not worth bothering, but they may be,” Shenkman says. “The savings in angst, legal fees and so forth ... can be a huge benefit at almost any wealth level.” If a new spouse dies absent a prenuptial agreement, the surviving spouse will get to inherit what state law permits, called a spousal right of election. “So the mere fact that the deceased spouse leaves assets to children from a prior marriage won’t suffice without a waiver of the

spousal right of election, which often is done in conjunction with a prenuptial agreement,” Shenkman says. GET YOUR FAIR SHARE

There are at least two ways that a surviving spouse can get an intestate share of a deceased spouse’s estate, according to Scroggin. uIf a married person dies without a will, then the surviving spouse is entitled to a share of the estate, generally limited to the intestate estate. If the decedent leaves no descendants, the surviving spouse will normally receive 100% of the intestate estate. In some states, the surviving spouse receives at least a minimum dollar amount or minimum percentage of the intestate estate even if there are surviving descendants or parents. uAnd two, in most states, if the will existed before a marriage and was not made in contemplation of the marriage, the new spouse is entitled to an intestate share of the estate.

Lions’ season fittingly ends with win — for third place By Bobby Nightengale bnightengale@ljworld.com

LAWRENCE HIGH’S JACKSON MALLORY, LEFT, AND JUSTIN ROBERTS, RIGHT, TRY TO STEAL A BALL from Blue Valley Northwest’s Jackson Heath during the Lions’ 74-66 victory in the third-place game of the Class 6A state tournament on Saturday in Wichita.

Wichita — After Lawrence High senior Anthony Harvey Jr. grabbed the final rebound and dribbled to mid-court to run out the clock Saturday, senior Justin Roberts raised both of his arms in the air as he walked toward the sideline. It was a fitting end for one of the most successful senior classes in school history, finishing with a 74-66 victory over Blue Valley Northwest in the Class 6A state third-place game at Wichita State’s Koch Arena.

Roberts, the school’s alltime leading scorer, put on one last show, scoring 31 points on 10-of-18 shooting. It was one point from his career high, and he set the tone for the top-seeded Lions, who made 14-of-24 three-pointers (58 percent). The Lions admitted they still felt the sting from Friday’s 74-61 loss to Wichita Southeast in the state semifinals. But they knew they wanted to end with a win and make the most of their last game. Plus, they are just too competitive to throw in the towel early. “I think the easy thing

would’ve been to come in and been dejected and been down. Roll over and not really play with our heart,” LHS senior forward Fred Brou said. “But it says a lot about the team that we didn’t do that. We came out, we executed, and we played the game that we wanted to.” The Lions (22-3) never trailed in their season finale, making their first six shots, including three triples by Roberts, who said he was playing through a “great deal” of pain from his previously injured shoulder.

Haas builds one-shot Valspar lead Palm Harbor, Fla. (ap) — Bill Haas took a swing tip from his father on Tuesday and converted it into a 54-hole lead at the Valspar Championship. Haas atoned for a three-putt bogey on the 13th by chipping in for birdie from behind the 15th green on his way to a 4-under 67 on Saturday at Innisbrook, giving him a oneshot lead over Graham DeLaet of Canada going into the final round. Former Kansas University golfer Gary Woodland shot a third-round 71 and was at

3-over 216, 11 strokes off the lead. Jay Haas, a nine-time PGA Tour winner and the Presidents Cup captain the last two times, had a week off from the PGA Tour Champions and spent three days with his son. It was on the par-5 fifth hole during a practice round that the father suggested Haas use a more abbreviated follow on his swing to get his hands moving faster. It seems to have worked. On a Copperhead course that has yet to yield a round lower

than 66, Haas put together his second straight 67 to reach 8-under 205. DeLaet, now sporting a beard that would make Old Tom Morris proud, pounded a shot out of the rough and over the water to three feet on the par-5 14th for an eagle that shot him up the leaderboard, and he finished with a 68 to get into the last group. It’s still up in the grabs today because of the nature of Innisbrook, which takes shots away more often than it gives up birdies. Six players were within

four shots of the lead, and even Jordan Spieth believes he is still in the mix. Spieth, who opened his title defense with a 76, made the cut with one shot to spare on Friday and moved into a tie for ninth on Saturday with a bogey-free 67 in which he holed a long eagle putt and made a pair of key par saves coming in. “To think after the first round that I go Saturday night be able to sleep with a chance to win the golf tournament, I’m very pleased with that,” Spieth said.

Calipari: Committee criteria should be standard Nashville, Tenn. (ap) — Kentucky coach John Calipari says the selection committee for the NCAA Tournament has a tough job, and he only wants each member to use the same criteria when judging teams for the field. Calipari was asked Saturday about the committee not having 10 basketball people after his 16th-ranked Wildcats beat Georgia, 93-80, in the Southeastern Conference Tournament semifinals. “What we’re all counting on is what is the criteria? Stick to the criteria. What is it? And all of you on this committee, don’t tell me you all have different criteria. Have the same criteria so that we know what we’re trying to do to get the best seed and all that,” Calipari said. Calipari said he likes to tease and tweak the committee even as he knows they have a tough job in paring down the teams. “At the end of the day, there’s going to be some upset people,” Calipari said. “Just how it is. There are going to be some happy people cheering and going nuts.” The Kentucky coach wrapped up by reminding listeners that his biggest concern remains his team and what path it faces each NCAA Tournament. As usual, Calipari said that path will be the hardest of anyone in the tournament. “Sometimes they stick the Lakers in there to get that going. Somebody told me they’re going to put Louisville back in the tournament in our path. That’s how it is,” Calipari said. “We get a tough path, and that’s fine. It hasn’t hurt us. It’s been kind of exciting. Made the games good. But we will see.”

NU won’t pursue postseason event Lincoln, Neb. (ap) — Nebraska isn’t going to pursue opportunities to play in a postseason men’s basketball tournament. Coach Tim Miles said Saturday night the decision was made after discussions with the team and athletic administration. Miles said there would have been possibilities for postseason play, but that the team had a long season that started in July with practices for a trip to Spain. The Cornhuskers finish 16-18 after losing 97-86 to 18th-ranked Maryland in the quarterfinals of the Big Ten tournament. Nebraska reached the quarterfinals after beating Rutgers and Wisconsin, marking the first time since 2006 that the Huskers won consecutive conference tournament games. Nebraska had been in contact with the College Basketball Invitational and new Vegas 16 tournament.

KYLE BUSCH CELEBRATES IN VICTORY LANE AFTER WINNING the NASCAR Xfinity Series race Saturday at Phoenix International Raceway in Avondale, Ariz.

Kyle Busch stays perfect with Xfinity victory Avondale, Ariz. — Kyle Busch made it 3-for-3 in the Xfinity Series this season, cruising to another victory at Phoenix International Raceway on Saturday. A week after leading all but one lap at Las Vegas, Busch led 175 of 200 laps on the mile oval to win for the record 79th time in the second-tier series. Busch also posted a dominating win at Atlanta. He didn’t race in the opener at Daytona. In the past three weeks, Busch has led 493 of 563 laps. “Some people will say I’m a failure for just joining this field,” the Sprint Cup regular said. “I get plenty of criticism, whether I’m winning, losing or participating. For me, I don’t really pay attention to any of that. I do what I need to do to help support my team.” Busch’s biggest obstacle was lapped traffic and the lone competition his Joe Gibbs Racing teammates. Busch and series rookie Erik Jones raced side-by-side for several laps before their green-flag pitstops with 24 laps left. Busch beat Jones to the line and built as much as a three-second edge.

Dwyer’s best chance for a hat trick came when his left-footed shot from outside the box off a free kick sailed over the net in the 87th minute. Dwyer scored 12 goals last season and a team-record 22 in 2014. Pedro Morales scored off a penalty kick in the 70th minute for the Whitecaps (0-2-0). Sporting KC is 4-0-0 at home against Vancouver.

Chiefs sign Fleming, Streater Kansas City, Mo. — The Kansas City Chiefs signed free-agent cornerback Jamell Fleming and wide receiver Rod Streater on Saturday. Fleming, a former third-round draft pick out of Oklahoma, appeared in all 16 games for Kansas City last season. He joined the Chiefs in 2014, starting four of the seven games he played that season. He provides some depth after the departure of Sean Smith in free agency. Streater has spent the past four seasons with the AFC West-rival Oakland Raiders, though he has been slowed by injury much of the past two seasons. Streater’s best year came in 2013, when he caught 60 passes for 888 yards and four touchdowns. He will compete with Albert Wilson and Chris Conley for playing time alongside Jeremy Maclin.

IDITAROD

Snowmobile hits dog teams Anchorage, Alaska — A man suspected of intentionally driving a snowmobile into teams of two mushers near the front of the Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race was arrested Saturday in a Yukon River village. Arnold Demoski, 26, of Nulato was arrested on suspicion of assault, reckless endangerment, reckless driving and six counts of criminal mischief. He told the Alaska Dispatch News that he had not intentionally driven into the dog teams of Aliy Zirkle and Jeff King, but he had blacked out while returning from drinking in another village. The crashes killed one of King’s dogs and injured at least two others. One of Zirkle’s dogs also was injured. Iditarod officials at first reported King had been injured. But the four-time champion said later the snowmobile had missed both him and his sled. Zirkle, 46, who finished second three times from 2012 to 2014, was mushing from Kokukuk to Nulato, a run of less than 20 miles (32.19 kilometers) on the Yukon River, when she was hit, race marshal Mark Nordman said.

Pitching a positive in Royals’ 3-0 loss Scottsdale, Ariz. (ap) — On a day when pitchers from both sides threw well, a slight problem with Kris Medlen’s early timing made the difference in an Arizona Diamondbacks split squad’s victory over Kansas City. David Peralta hit his first home run of the spring, barely clearing the right-field fence, and Rubby De La Rosa pitched four scoreless innings for Arizona in the 3-0 Diamondbacks’ victory on Saturday. De La Rosa, the No. 4 starter in the Diamondbacks’ rotation, had been rocked for five runs in four innings in his first two starts. But he blanked the Royals on four hits, striking out five with no walks, in front of a record Salt River Fields crowd of 13,514. All three runs came in the first inning off

Medlen, two of them on Peralta’s homer. “I think I felt a little quick today in my delivery and everything,” Medlen said, “and by the time I realized I was being quick, it was already 3-0. After that, I felt good the entire game.” He gave up six hits in three innings, striking out two and walking one. It was the second win in as many days for Arizona over the Royals. The Diamondbacks beat Kansas City 12-3 in Surprise on Friday. After Medlen left, five Royals pitchers blanked the Diamondbacks on four hits over six innings. Four Arizona relievers allowed two hits over five innings after De La Rosa’s departure, including closer Brad Ziegler in his first appearance of the spring. Eric Hosmer went

Williams gets redemption, not ‘W’ By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

Kansas City, Mo. — The last time West Virginia big man Devin Williams faced Kansas University, he watched KU junior Landen Lucas dominate the paint with nine points, 16 rebounds and four blocks in a 10-point Kansas victory in early February in Lawrence. Playing the rubber match in the Big 12 title game on Saturday night at Sprint Center, Williams was determined to prevent that from happening again. “We didn’t take it lightly,” said 6-foot-9 WVU sophomore forward Elijah Macon. “Coming into the tournament, before we even got to Kansas City, we said, ‘If we play Kansas, we gotta keep Lucas out the game and

don’t let him do what he did when we played him the second time.’” Mission accomplished. Lucas finished with just six points, seven rebounds, three turnovers and five fouls in 24 minutes on a night Williams went off for a game-high 31 points and 10 rebounds and landed on the alltournament team. One problem: Lucas’ team got the victory, 8171, KU’s 14th win in a row and first Big 12 postseason title since 2013. “I had the last one, he got this one,” Lucas said with a shrug. “He definitely got his, and I’m not too proud of that, but I’ll take a win any day.” Behind 18 first-half points from Williams, the Mountaineers (26-8) led 34-33 at the break. No other WVU player had more than six points in the first half, and, as good

WEST VIRGINIA FORWARD DEVIN WILLIAMS TAKES HIS TIME coming down from the rim after a first-half dunk. as Williams was in this one — 9-of-12 from the floor, 13-of-15 from the free-throw line — he was not able to topple the topseeded Jayhawks (30-4) by himself. “Dev worked really hard, and that was one of his missions, to do what

he did tonight, and he did it,” sophomore guard Daxter Miles Jr. said. “As a surrounding cast, we gotta do better.” Added junior guard Tarik Phillip of his teammate’s monster night: “He wanted to show that he was one of the best big

men in the country, and that’s what he did.” Williams’ teammates were not the only ones complimentary of the junior forward’s big night. But between breaths of talking about how hard Williams worked and how he had developed into WVU’s go-to player, Mountaineers coach Bob Huggins also made sure to tip his cap to Lucas, both for his efforts against Williams and his role in KU’s current winning streak. “The guy that was sitting here is a pretty big, strong guy,” Huggins said of Williams. “And Landen has done as good a job on him as anybody has.” Williams admitted that he thought a lot about Lucas’ big night heading into this week. But, for him, the rematch was about more than a oneon-one showdown inside.

“When I was at home, I played my butt off, and that was enough for him (the second time) to be at home, in front of his home fans and not get out-worked,” Williams said of Lucas. “It just bounced back my way again. More than getting into the battle with him, though, it was about (trying to win) this championship and doing whatever it takes.” WVU fell short of that goal, and as much as that pleased Lucas, the thought of one more meeting with Williams this season did not bother him one bit. For one, it likely would come deep in the NCAA Tournament. And, for two, Lucas said he thought he’d be due. “Exactly,” he joked. “I’ll take the next one, if we do face each other again. It’s the more important one.”

I love his personality as much as any kid we’ve ever had.” Graham showed his colorful personality during the postgame awards ceremony. He was handed a bucket of confetti by a tourney worker and, with the support of his teammates, crept behind Self and dumped the debris on his coach’s head. “It wasn’t water. The guys wouldn’t do that to me on the court,” Self said with a smile, noting he didn’t mind having to brush confetti off his suitcoat shoulder. “I am proud of these guys. Nobody else in the league can wear a hat that says ‘Big 12 championship’ because we won the regular season and conference tournament. I think that’s good for our guys.” One person in the stands

That would be Graham’s mom, Dewanna King, who attended, along with Devonté’s sister, Shamaria, and his grandmother, Doris. “I saw him do that. We’ve got it on film. He’s silly. He’s the class clown,” Dewanna said, smiling. “I would say I’m one of the biggest kids on the team, even though I’m 21 now. Me and Jamari (Traylor, one point, one rebound, three turnovers, 12 minutes) are two of

the biggest clowns. I enjoy doing stuff like that,” Graham said. On a serious note, mom never doubted Graham, a former Appalachian State commit, could play at this high-major level. “He’s had it in him a long time,” Dewanna said. “I think a lot of the world just now is getting to see it. When I drove in here on Thursday, one of the coach’s wives said, ‘Do you remember what you told me in Maui (at Maui Invitational in which KU went 3-0)?’ She told me my son had a good game in Maui. I said, ‘You haven’t seen him yet.’” Self sure wouldn’t mind

if Graham’s family members somehow find their way into the stands for KU’s upcoming NCAA Tournament games. “It seems to me he plays better when his mom is in town,” Self stated. Graham hit two threes in an 11-2 run that gave the Jayhawks a 51-39 lead with 14 minutes left. He nearly matched West Virginia’s Devin Williams point for point; Williams scored 31 points with 10 rebounds. “Devin had a great game, congratulations to him,” Graham said. “Lando (Lucas, six points, seven boards) was down in the first half (after Wil-

liams’ 18-point effort). We kept trying to talk to him, tell him he’s one of the biggest pieces on our team. We need him. He got a big and-one and hit some big free throws for us (two of two).” Also, Graham said he was “proud of Frank (Mason III, who had four points, seven assists playing 38 minutes on a sore left foot; he suffered a bad bruise in Friday’s semifinal win over Baylor). This time of year, nobody is 100-percent healthy. You will have to fight through injuries and put your heart out for the team like he did.” Graham was joined on the all-tourney team by KU’s Perry Ellis (17 points, five boards), West Virginia’s Williams, Iowa State’s Georges Niang and Oklahoma’s Buddy Hield. “It’s special. I’m grateful for it. There are so many good players in the conference. For me to win it is a big deal. I will remember it forever,” Graham said.

to need that heading into this next tournament.” That would be the NCAA Tournament. Kansas undoubtedly will enter it as No. 1 overall seed and likely will play the first two rounds in Des Moines, although nothing is certain until brackets are released today. The team’s balance, demonstrated by four different players having a share of the marquee, based on honors given out after the four titles, calls to mind the 2008 nationaltitle team. Who was that squad’s best player? Brandon Rush, a three-time All-Big 12 first-team selection and the team’s leading scorer in each of his three seasons at Kansas? Mario Chalmers, perennial All-Big 12 defensive honoree, the second-leading scorer three years in a row and the author of The Shot that remains in midflight on sports-bar walls, countless basements, even some living rooms?

No such uncertainties hang over the Jayhawks this March, and they compete with a much more experienced roster. “Distractions are a major key,” Mason said. “They can hurt teams. That’s the main thing we preach about in meetings. We don’t want any distractions. We want to keep doing what we’re doing. Everyone’s focused on the big picture, and that’s winning.” Mason suffered his foot injury late in Friday night’s victory against Baylor. He limped off the floor but stayed in the game. He said he doesn’t expect the foot to become a distraction. “I got an X-ray on my foot,” Mason said. “It wasn’t feeling well. I thought I wasn’t going to play (Saturday). I took some meds for it, got some treatment on it. The X-ray didn’t

Kansas City, Mo. — Various college basketball analysts are saying Kansas University’s 30-4 basketball team today will be awarded the overall No. 1 seed in the 2016 NCAA Tournament. The Jayhawks have been ranked No. 1 in the land the last two weeks in both the AP and USA Today polls and have added three victories in the Big 12 tournament to validate the squad’s regular-season title. “Our numbers are really good,” Self said of wins against Top 25 teams and RPI. “I don’t know if that means anything. I think we’ll be a 1. I don’t think it’s a lock we’d go to Chicago (Midwest Regional site). I think Michigan State is a 1. They could take us South (to Louisville). I don’t know which is closer, Chicago or Louisville. Who knows where we’ll go? I am confident we’ll be a 1 seed, though.” Chicago and Louisville are spots for the Sweet 16 and Elite Eight. Most pundits figure the Jayhawks will play a firstround game Thursday in Des Moines, Iowa.

Collins, that ball of fire of a sixth man? Tough question, much tougher than identifying that team’s glue guys (Russell Robinson, Darnell Jackson, Sasha Kaun). This team isn’t as deep or talented as that one, but it doesn’t necessarily need to be to win the national title. It’s facing this year’s field, not the 2008 champions. Comparisons to more recent Kansas teams also have no relevance. Any fears that these Jayhawks won’t reach the Sweet 16 because the past two didn’t have no basis in reality. The condition of center Joel Embiid’s back (stress fracture) put everyone in a bad mood two years ago, when confidence wobbled and the team’s best remaining player, Andrew Wiggins, turned back into the freshman he seldom resembled in a loss to Stanford. Last season, freshman center Cliff Alexander’s family ran afoul of NCAA law, and it

Toughing it out has driven this team to titles from as far away as South Korea and Hawaii and as close to home as Allen Fieldhouse and Kansas City. Potential trips to Des Moines, probably Chicago or Louisville and then Houston are on the horizon. Nobody knows if they’ll win the fifth title, easily the toughest one. At the same time, nobody has reason to doubt they’ll give it everything they have in pursuit of that goal. — Sports editor Tom Keegan appears on The Drive on WIBW-TV on Sunday nights.

Spartans, Purdue meet in Big 10 final The Associated Press

First Four March 15-16 Dayton, Ohio

Top 25 Men No. 2 Michigan St. 64, No. 18 Maryland 61 Indianapolis — Denzel Valentine keeps finding new ways to bail out Michigan State. Even when he’s cleaning up his own mistakes. After missing the front end of a one-and-one with 10.2 seconds to play, Valentine grabbed a defensive rebound, drew a foul and made two free throws with 0.8 seconds left to seal a victory over Maryland in Saturday’s Big Ten tournament semifinal. Melo Trimble’s desperation heave from 55 feet barely got out of his hands and didn’t come until after the buzzer anyway. “That was a weird game for Denzel Valentine, and all he did was 18 (points), 10 (assists) and seven (rebounds),” coach Tom Izzo said. “I guess I’m getting like fans, spoiled.” It’s easy to do. Valentine came up just short, for the second straight day, of becoming the first player in tourney history with a tripledouble. And he’s got one more chance in today’s title game against Purdue. After explaining Friday that the Spartans (27-5) were angry about finishing second in the regular season, Valentine has them playing like champs. They’ve won 12 out of 13 as they chase a record-tying fifth tourney title. What’s more impressive is how the Spartans are winning. One day after Maryland (25-8) scored a tourneyrecord 97 points, Michigan State held the Terrapins 25 points below their season average and allowed only two baskets over the last 101⁄2 minutes — Trimble’s three with 10:25 left that tied the score at 53 and his layup with 14.7 seconds left, which made it 62-61. Over the final 351⁄2 minutes, Michigan State trailed for a total of 19 seconds. Valentine and his teammates dug deep. “We made stops, got rebounds when we needed to and guys made free throws down the stretch,” Valentine said. Michigan State had no choice in this rough-andtumble game. Maryland’s Jake Layman got hit in the face on the first basket. No foul was called. A couple of possessions later, Layman and Eron Harris each picked up technicals as Rasheed Sulaimon and Valentine had words near midcourt. A few minutes later, Terrapins coach Mark Turgeon was given a bench warning. Less than 12 minutes into the game, Trimble got hit in the face with the ball on a Michigan State pass, forcing him to briefly leave. And then, with 4:15 left in the first half, Turgeon was called for a technical. Even at the end, Trimble thought he got fouled twice — on what would have been the go-ahead layup in the final seconds and again on the heave.

No. 16 Kentucky 93, Georgia 80 Nashville, Tenn. — Kentucky believed it could catch Georgia by matching the intensity that kept the Bulldogs ahead for most of the game. The Wildcats just needed more than 30 minutes before finally turning the tables and earning a hardfought victory. Jamal Murray scored 26 points, Tyler Ulis added 25, and both keyed a late 11-3 run that helped Kentucky put away Georgia in a semifinal of the Southeastern Conference tournament. Isaiah Briscoe’s putback with 8:16 left put the Wildcats up 68-67 and Murray followed with two free throws. After Houston Kessler’s jumper got Georgia within one, Ulis scored five points while Murray made a layup during the critical run that pushed second-seeded Kentucky ahead to stay and into Sunday’s championship. Briscoe (12 points) was also important down the stretch with a jumper and feed to Marcus Lee for a dunk as Kentucky (25-8) had to work hard to make its third straight SEC final. Yante Maten had 20 points, J.J. Frazier 19 and Kenny Gaines 16 for sixth-seeded Georgia (1913), which led most of the game before faltering down the stretch. “I was proud of my team for the effort that they gave, and we just couldn’t close it,” Georgia coach Mark Fox said.

MICHIGAN STATE’S DENZEL VALENTINE WAVES to fans as he leaves the court after a Big Ten Conference tournament semifinal game on Saturday in Indianapolis. Michigan State won, 64-61.

SETON HALL’S ISAIAH WHITEHEAD POSES WITH the Most Outstanding Player trophy as teammates celebrate after the Big East tournament final against Villanova on Saturday in New York. Seton Hall won, 69-67.

Seton Hall 69, No. 3 Villanova 67 New York — Isaiah Whitehead scored 26 points, including the deciding three-point play with 18 seconds left, and Seton Hall won the Big East tournament for the first time in 23 years, beating Villanova. Whitehead drove on the right side, flipped the ball in and was fouled. His free throw gave the Pirates a 68-67 lead. Villanova had two more chances sandwiched around a free throw by Angel Delgado, but the Pirates held on and beat the top-seeded defending champions. It was Seton Hall’s third tournament title.

No. 8 Oregon 88, No. 12 Utah 57 Las Vegas — Tyler Dorsey scored 23 points, Dillon Brooks added 18, and Oregon turned the Pac-12 championship game into an early rout. Oregon and Utah (26-8) were the Pac-12’s top two teams during the regular season and held up through the conference tournament, setting up a matchup worthy of the Strip.

Coaches stump to make tournament New York (ap) — The campaigning. The stump speeches. The last-ditch pitches from the contenders, insisting they aren’t paying attention to the pundits and prognosticators. No, not presidential hopefuls. At this time of year, some college basketball coaches sound like political candidates searching for votes as they tout their teams’ NCAA Tournament worthiness. The selection committee is hard at work putting the bracket together in New York this weekend. The big reveal is today, and it is not as if a coach’s plea will sway the panel. From the ACC to the WCC, coaches get asked: Do you think you’re in? Have you done enough? And often they answer as if — maybe, just maybe — somebody important is listening. “I think that at the end of the day, we’re a team that not only can be in the NCAA Tournament, but win games in the NCAA Tournament,” Wichita State coach Gregg Marshall said after his Shockers were eliminated from the Missouri Valley Conference Tournament last weekend. Wichita State was one of several regularseason champions from mid-major conferences that didn’t win league tournaments to lock up automatic NCAA bids. Monmouth (27-7) and St. Mary’s (27-5) are in similar situations. “We have one of the top five records in the country. The only thing we didn’t do was beat Gonzaga three times. We beat them twice,” St. Mary’s coach Randy Bennett said after losing the West Coast Conference final to Gonzaga.

BEST BETS WOW DTV DISH 7 PM

Wichita State (24-8) has been an NCAA regular in recent years, but this season’s team lost most of its marquee nonconference games and the MVC was not deep enough to give the Shockers a boost. The Shockers also played a chunk of their season without star point guard Fred VanVleet. “I don’t know what (our nonconference schedule is) ranked, somewhere between five to 15 in the country,” Marshall said. “In the end, if you see teams that are better and had to deal with what we had to deal with, maybe they select them.” Syracuse (19-13) started the season with coach Jim Boeheim serving a nine-game NCAA suspension and lost a couple without him. After the Orange were bounced from the Atlantic Coast Conference Tournament by Pittsburgh, Boeheim said he hoped the committee would not punish his team for his absence. “The chairman of the committee said a coach not being there can be taken like a player not being there,” Boeheim said. “How much is that important? I don’t know. How much is that taken into consideration? I don’t know. I know we’ve beaten four teams in the (RPI) top 30 or 35 in the country. We’ve beaten eight teams in the top 100. If there’s teams better than that, so be it. We’ll see what happens.” The Atlantic 10 Tournament featured a few teams that came into the weekend at Barclays Center needing to shore up at-large resumes. George Washington coach Mike Lonergan knew his team was teeter-

ing on the edge, but said a victory Friday against St. Joseph’s should have been good enough to get the Colonials into the NCAA Tournament. After GW (23-10) lost to St. Joe’s, Lonergan seemed resigned to the Colonials being NIT-bound. Still, he restated his case and hoped that GW’s best victories would look even better by today. “I’m not going to lie to you: I’ll be cheering for Seton Hall and Virginia and even Tennessee,” Lonergan said. Seton Hall and Virginia won Friday. The Volunteers lost to LSU, another team hoping to squeeze in. The Tigers (19-13) on Saturday lost to Texas A&M, the Southeastern Conference’s top seed. Seton Hall won again Saturday, but Virginia lost to North Carolina. “We feel that we’re in a very powerful league. We hope that that stands for something, and it will certainly carry some weight,” LSU coach Johnny Jones said. Georgia (19-12) advanced in the SEC by beating South Carolina, but lost to Kentucky in the semifinals. “There’s a lot of teams that didn’t challenge themselves with the schedule. We could’ve played a bunch of cupcakes, but we didn’t,” Georgia coach Mark Fox said. St. Joe’s (25-7) is probably safe now. “I’m honest with you; I don’t know where we were,” Hawks coach Phil Martelli said. “Look, would I have wanted to go through the next 48 hours with a three-game losing streak? No. No, I wouldn’t. “But campaigning wouldn’t do anything.”

SHOOTING WRAPPED LAST MONTH ON “THE GOOD CATHOLIC,” A ROMANTIC COMEDY WRITTEN AND DIRECTED BY LAWRENCE NATIVE PAUL SHOULBERG, who is pictured on the right with director of photography Justin Montgomery in this on-set photo. The film is inspired by the real-life love story of Shoulberg’s parents, Donald and Gini Shoulberg, a former priest and nun who left the church to marry and raise a family.

FAITH, I HOPE & LOVE

Screenwriter’s priestly parents inspired ‘Catholic’ rom-com By Joanna Hlavacek

t was March 2013, and Paul Shoulberg had every reason to be happy. Nearly a decade after graduating with a film degree from Kansas University, the Lawrence native’s script for “Walter,” his first feature-length effort, had been sold. The film was just heading into production when Shoulberg’s father died. Donald Shoulberg was 76, and it was cancer. During shooting, Shoulberg’s thoughts never strayed far from his dad. “After that process, I realized I wanted to tell a story that was very personal, that would let me deal with all the stuff you have to deal with in losing a parent,” Shoulberg, 39, recalls. So, instead of “shelling out thousands and thousands of dollars in therapy,” Shoulberg coped in the way that seemed most natural to him: He wrote. The filmmaker’s latest project, a romantic comedy called “The Good Catholic,” follows a devoted young priest named Daniel (Zachary Spicer) who unexpectedly falls in love with a college student (Jane, played by Wrenn Schmidt) he meets in confession one day. “The Good Catholic” is essentially the story of Shoulberg’s father, who left the priesthood to marry Shoulberg’s mother, Gini, who was, in a departure from the film, a Dominican nun at the time — some 40 years ago. Writing and directing “The Good Catholic,” which also stars Danny Glover and John C. McGinley as Daniel’s fellow priests, had been a long time coming for Shoulberg. Please see CATHOLIC, page 3D

I tried to show people in the church as being people. They can be petty, they can be profound, but they’re human. They’ll bicker over who gets the last piece of bacon and they’ll also talk about the meaning of life and death, all in the same day.” — Paul Shoulberg, screenwriter

MOVIE REVIEW

Goodman gets creepy in tense ‘Cloverfield’ By Barbara Vancheri Associated Press

Creepy jailer or savvy survivalist? Or both? After all, Howard (John Goodman) insists, “Crazy is building your ark after the flood has already come.” He isn’t waiting for a flood or Martian invasion or chemical or nuclear attack or other catastrophe. No siree. He built a doomsday bunker and stocked it with shelves of canned and nonperishable food along with movies such as “Cannibal Airlines” and “Pretty in Pink” on VHS and DVD, a jukebox, puzzles, board games, a fish tank, an air filtration system, a shower and toilet, a generator and other essentials for the long haul. But after a violent car accident lands Michelle (Mary Elizabeth Winstead) in his underground shelter, shackled to the wall and informed, “Everyone outside of here is dead,” she initially is not sure what to

make of him. And neither are we in “10 Cloverfield Lane,” a sort of cinematic cousin to 2008’s “Cloverfield.” With J.J. Abrams as a producer and Dan Trachtenberg as director, it has been shrouded in more mystery than “Star Wars: The Force Awakens.” Its synopsis consists of the tagline on the poster: “Monsters come in many forms.” As with “Star Wars,” the less you know the better. But if you have seen the trailer you know there are at least three main characters — in addition to Goodman and Winstead, John Gallagher Jr. is part of the key cast — and the slyly effective use of the song “I Think We’re Alone Now.”

“10 Cloverfield Lane” does several things very well: It puts us in Michelle’s shoes, wondering if Howard could be telling the truth and if there is any way to escape his sinister sanctuary. It also ratchets up the tension, dread and sense of danger with one scene that produced gasps and jolts at a preview.

A menacing Goodman, who apparently lost weight since this movie was filmed, uses his heft and ability to turn on the crazy eyes to keep everyone on tenterhooks as he declares kindness and generosity have become “antiquated customs.” Winstead alternates between frightened and fierce with both weird nor-

malcy and hypervigilance in between. “10 Cloverfield Lane” is an old-fashioned and yet original psychological thriller that blends the hidden with outright horror and reminds us of the truth in that famous line: Just because you’re paranoid doesn’t mean they aren’t after you.

Growing up in Lawrence, he never regarded his parents’ unconventional romance as anything but normal. It wasn’t until after his father’s death — and several years of hearing friends and acquaintances tell him what a great screenplay the Shoulbergs’ love story would make — that he began to really consider the idea. It seemed to him the ideal way to honor his dad, a “huge reader” and academic with whom he’d debate the great philosophical questions of life. “I’ve never been particularly religious, and I’m still not, but as my father was dying, I really learned a lot about what religion has offered him, and I developed a real respect for how he embraced it and used it Contributed Photo to be a better person,” PAUL SHOULBERG IS PICTURED HERE ON THE SET OF HIS ROMANTIC COMEDY FILM “THE GOOD CATHOLIC.” Shoulberg, a Lawrence native and KU graduate, Shoulberg says. “To see began writing the film after the death of his father, Donald Shoulberg, modeling the film after his parents’ romance. how a really smart, progressive, loving guy can out of it.” philosophical questions brought in) on “The find meaning in religion that he and I used to talk Good Catholic,” which did give me respect for it.

He wonders if denying genuine love out of obligations to the priesthood is really the path God has chosen for him, or if he might be a better Christian by following his heart. “That’s the question the film raises,” Shoulberg says. “What makes you a good Catholic? How are you able to best serve other people? And if you’re not true to yourself, can you really be good for other people?” Donald and Gini Shoulberg (née Hartigan) met at a Durham, N.C., parish in the late 1960s. The two formed a bond that Donald over time recognized as more than just platonic, and he asked his new love to leave the church with him. The ordeal propelled Gini into a full-blown “spiritual crisis,” but the nun ultimately found reaffirmation and ac-

There wasn’t any major reprimanding, says Shoulberg, which he admits might surprise some. “I tried to show people in the church as being people,” he says of his film’s portrayal of clergy members. “They can be petty, they can be profound, but they’re human.

Grandchild’s food allergies are a serious issue Dear Annie: I have two young granddaughters who live on opposite sides of the country. They are both in elementary school. “Harper” has tree nut allergies. Tree nuts are hidden in many things, including anything with sesame. In many cases, nut-free items are processed in the same plants where tree nuts are processed, making them unsafe even though there are no nuts in them. Simple things like storebought pastries, flour, ice cream and dried fruit can all be contaminated. When we get together, making sure each girl gets some treats becomes a huge undertaking. “Cyndi” often doesn’t get her favorite foods because Harper cannot eat them.

Annie’s Mailbox

Marcy Sugar and Kathy Mitchell

anniesmailbox@comcast.net

Both families visited last week and I had promised Cyndi a special treat, which she always gets when she is here alone. Unfortunately, I was unable to purchase the treat until after Harper had arrived. So I asked my daughter what kind of treat I could get for Harper so that both girls would have something. She became upset, saying I should have purchased the same treat for both

A chilling Christie adaptation A week after “Downton” departed, Lifetime throws its viewers a lifesaver with the two-part British adaptation of Agatha Christie’s classic whodunit “And Then There Were None” (7 p.m., TV-14; concludes Monday). Don’t miss it. Set right before the outbreak of World War II, “None” concerns 10 complete strangers invited to a mansion on a remote island. There they discover that their mysterious host is nowhere to be seen and that telephone contact with the mainland does not exist. Over a pleasant dinner, a mysterious recording announces that every one of them is guilty of murder or murders. It doesn’t take long for the “guests” to get bumped off, one by one, in grisly manners corresponding to an old childhood rhyme. A chilling location complements a wonderful cast, including Charles Dance (“Game of Thrones”), Anna Maxwell Martin (“The Bletchley Circle”), Aidan Turner (“Poldark”), Sam Neill and Miranda Richardson. Some Christie purists may quibble at deviations from the original, most notably the addition of horror film elements. There are bloody flashbacks galore and the use of cold tracking shots of ominous interiors and architecture quite reminiscent of “The Shining.” I found the horror entirely appropriate. This is, after all, a tale of mass murder, albeit one that unfolds in the starchy drawing room atmosphere of a British country weekend. A thoroughly entertaining exercise in addition by subtraction, watch it and you’ll never see “Survivor” in quite the same way.

girls so that Harper didn’t feel bad. This is causing friction in the family and I feel caught in the middle. Harper has a new baby sister who doesn’t have allergies, so I’m curious how my daughter will handle this when the baby realizes she can only eat what her older sister eats. We understand the severity of the allergies, but we also have three granddaughters and need to know how to handle the food situation in the future. — Befuddled Grandma

or ask your daughter to bring some. Save the other treats for visits when Harper is not present. She should not feel ostracized or deprived of special time with Grandma because of her allergy. As she gets older and spends more time in the company of others, Harper will learn coping strategies that will allow for greater social interaction while remaining safe. We know it’s complicated and more work for you, but this is your grandchild, and right now she needs your protection.

SHELF LIFE

WOMEN, WORLDWIDE ere at the Lawrence Public Library, I walk among powerful women every day within the stacks, not just from the United States, but from across the globe. Tuesday was International Women’s Day, which reminded me being

surrounded by these women’s words is a joy (even though it means my “To Be Read” list is destined to be enormous and overwhelming forever.) My co-Book Squad-ers and I are all passionate about diversifying our reading choices despite a publishing world

NIGERIA: l Nnedi Okorafor, “Akata Witch”: Meaning “African-

American” in Nigerian Pidgin English, “Akata” is the term slung at 12-year-old Sunny by her peers after she moves to Nigeria from America. Dealing with a new community would be challenging enough, but Sunny also sticks out because of her albinism. “Akata Witch” is a young adult fantasy tale of finding yourself and your superpowers (both figurative and literal, in the case of this book) in unexpected places. l Chinelo Okparanta, “Under the Udala Trees”: This is a story focused on a young Nigerian woman coming to terms with her sexual identity. As reviewer Claire Heuchan states: “Given the dearth of black lesbian stories in popular culture, the publication of ‘Under the Udala Trees’ was a cool drink of water in a representational drought.” Okparanta gives us a story that is beautifully written and not sugar-coated. It’ll stick with you for quite some time.

IRAN:

that still primarily focuses on (white) men. I feel very lucky to work with such awesome readers, as there is so much to be done. VIDA, an organization dedicated to researching gender and racial equity, has consistently released stats on the publishing world, and they

aren’t pretty. For instance: In 2014, female authors only represented 20 percent of books reviewed in The Nation, and the vast majority of those women were white. Similarly, the New York Review of Books review staff was 81 percent male in the same year.

UNITED KINGDOM: l Caitlin Moran, “How to Build a Girl”: This book probably wins for most swear words used on this list. Caitlin Moran is a snarky, witty, and thoroughly honest writer, and this novel (based largely on her own upbringing) will make you cringe-laugh. Following an awkward misfit teen through her adventures in music journalism in the 1990s, “How to Build a Girl” spoke to my inner teenage angst, even if I didn’t deal with quite the same obstacles. You’ll laugh aloud ... but probably won’t loan this one to your grandma. l Helen Oyeyemi, “White Is for Witching”: Born in Nigeria and educated at Cambridge, Helen Oyeyemi’s got mad skills. And her books are … creepy. “White Is for Witching” is a haunting novel narrated by many characters (both animate and inanimate). It will give you the chills without being over-the-top scary. Also: Oyeyemi has a short story collection called “What Is Not Yours Is Not Yours” that was just released.

After learning about these disparities, I’ve been trying harder to read more diverse voices. Here are a handful of my favorite reads from many parts of the world. — Kate Gramlich is a Readers’ Services Assistant at the Lawrence Public Library.

WEST INDIES: l Naomi Jackson, “The Star Side of Bird Hill”: Two sisters move from Brooklyn to their grandmother’s home in Barbados and adjust to a radical culture shock. The fictional town of Bird Hill is written so vibrantly that I found myself thinking about the people and places long after the last page. l Edwidge Danticat, “Krik? Krak!”: Haitianborn author Edwidge Danticat’s first novel was published when she was only 25. Often focusing on mother-daughter relationships and the diverse suffering of women, her work over the past couple of decades is always incredibly moving. I’d start with this one — the short stories are loosely tied together, creating what feels like a rich conversation among Haitian women.

NORTH AMERICA: l Marjane Satrapi, “Persepolis”: The first (OK, only?) graphic novel I was ever assigned in a college course, “Persepolis” is a fantastic feminist creation. Marjane Satrapi portrays her young-adult life in Iran during and after the Islamic revolution. She hits upon heavy feminist issues with a keen eye and a grace I’d never be able to manage.

l Miriam Toews, “All My Puny Sorrows (AMPS)”: One of my dearest friends and favorite people is, like Toews (pronounced “Taves”), a Canuck, and she recommended this book to me last year. Following a woman whose gorgeous, talented, brilliant sister is suffering from acute depression, “AMPS” is the only book that has made me laugh while sobbing. Toews draws upon her own life experience to portray an honest, and at times brutal, depiction of mental illness. l Louise Erdrich, “Love Medicine”: I had a helluva time trying to decide which of Louise Erdrich’s books to choose for this column. Last fall I binge-read her books during a major reading “phase.” Erdrich’s novels often follow a fictional reservation in North Dakota and its residents therein. Reading her works feels like getting to know a community — its joys and heartaches large and small — over an expanse of time. l Pam Muñoz Ryan, “Esperanza Rising”: Following a young girl’s journey from wealth and stability in her Mexican hometown, through devastating news, and into migrant work in the U.S., was humbling and awe-inspiring. This book is digestible for middle-grade readers but I’d recommend it for adults as well.
