Budget deal reached, but passage in doubt By Peter Hancock Twitter: @LJWpqhancock

Topeka — Kansas House and Senate negotiators reached agreement on a proposed budget deal Saturday, but it remains

doubtful whether the package has enough votes to pass either chamber. The bill, known as the “omnibus budget” package, contains some changes from the budget for the fiscal year that begins

July 1 that lawmakers initially approved last year, and then later amended earlier this session. But it would do little to address a projected $153 million funding shortfall that was the result of new,

updated revenue forecasts released April 20. Instead, it would give Republican Gov. Sam Brownback authority to continue delaying a $92 million payment into the Kansas Public Employees

Retirement System that has already been delayed once. It also puts restrictions on additional cuts Brownback may need to make later in the year. The governor will need to cut between $140

million and $150 million to balance the budget. Please see BUDGET, page 6A l Budget deal raises

How did Panda T Garden grow?

hen you think of Lawrence’s longtime successful Chinese restaurant Panda Garden, you don’t often think of it being built upon potatoes and goulash. But as the restaurant at 1500 W. Sixth St. closed its doors for the final time on Saturday — the owners are retiring after 30 years in business — I heard a couple of stories that made me think that without potatoes and goulash, Lawrence never would have had Panda Garden. First, the potatoes. It is helpful if you understand that in Taiwanese culture, potatoes are considered the food of poor folks. That’s why Lucy White frequently would receive a bag of rice in the mail from her Taiwanese mother. She couldn’t stand the thought of her daughter eating potatoes in America.

he newest tenant of Rohan Ridge Apartments, Kayla Brown, broke conversation with a new neighbor late Tuesday afternoon when she spotted an old truck turn into the complex’s parking lot. From her doorway, she had been watching for it, waiting. Brown, 27, hurried down the stairs from her second-floor, three-bedroom apartment and met the truck as it pulled into a stall. A Lawrence Community Shelter employee drove the old Chevrolet Silverado, loaded with boxes and bags of donated dishes, toys, clothing and other essentials. More than the supplies, Brown was eager to see her two children, just retrieved from day care and smiling from the front seat. The kids — 5-year-old Joseph, or “Joe Joe,” and 3-year-old Amiyah — jumped from the cab, ran to their mom to give her a quick hug, and then darted up the stairs and in and out of every room of their new home. Please see HOUSING, page 8A

About this series This is the first story in a five-part series exploring the shortage of affordable housing in Lawrence, which is designated through national health rankings as a “severe” problem in Douglas County. We’ll cover the attention that issue has received in the past year and what means city leaders and others are proposing, moving forward, to improve it. Part two will be printed in next Sunday’s Journal-World.

Budget deal raises questions about constitutionality Brownback would sweep $150 million out of the highway fund and impose a 3 percent cut to the funding lawmakers approved for state universities. In addition to that, many of the options would give Brownback authority to continue delaying a scheduled payment into the state pension system. And even with all that, the budget plans assume that Brownback will have to make additional cuts throughout the year to prevent the state general fund from

Kansas House and Senate budget negotiators struck a deal Saturday on a roughly $6.3 billion general fund budget for the fiscal year and the next fiscal year that begins July 1, even though hardly anyone really believes the state will have enough revenue to pay for it. Although a final budget had not yet been approved Saturday evening, all of the options lawmakers were considering involved an assumption that Gov. Sam

House reconsiders changing judicial Lawrence native part of Pulitzer-winning LA Times staff selection process

KATE MATHER, WHO GREW UP IN LAWRENCE AND IS NOW A REPORTER FOR THE LA TIMES, won a Pulitzer Prize in journalism along with the Times staff for breaking news coverage of the San Bernardino, Calif., mass shooting. Mather is pictured Friday inside the Dusty Bookshelf, 708 Massachusetts St.

By Karen Dillon

Twitter: @karensdillon

It was just around 11 a.m. on Dec. 2 when Los Angeles Times reporter Kate Mather walked into the newsroom and overheard reporters and editors discussing Twitter reports of shots fired at a San Bernardino business. “I asked my editor Shelby Grad, ‘Do you need extra help, do you need a hand?’” Mather, a Lawrence native, said in an interview with the Journal-World on Thursday. “He said, ‘Just go.’” The 27-year-old didn’t need any encouragement. She and at least four other

reporters grabbed notebooks and press passes and sprinted for the parking garage for the drive to San Bernardino, which was about an hour to an hour and a half southeast of LA. Mather, a fifth-generation Kansan, began working for the LA Times right after graduating from the University of Southern California in 2011. Covering crime, police and breaking news, she was part of a team of reporters who were Pulitzer Prize finalists for their stories about a deadly stabbing and shooting rampage in Isla Vista, Calif., just two years ago. During the ride to San Bernardino, Mather and other

reporters began trying to figure out what had just occurred at the Inland Regional Center. “You are listening to the radio, getting emails from your colleagues in the office, making phone calls,” she said. “I was calling sources in the LAPD who work in counterterrorism because we thought if it was something big, they would have to be notified,” Mather said. She also called her parents, Rusty and P.J. Mather, in Lawrence. “My mom said, ‘We just saw it on CNN, and the shooter is still out there,’” Kate Mather said. “‘Be careful.’”

Late April restaurant inspection numbers up following early low Lights F & Sirens

or the last two weeks of April the number of restaurants with health code violations in the double digits is back up to the average amount. I was kind of hoping the numbers would stay down on a permanent basis. Oh well. C’est la vie. A few bars, two sushi places and a sandwich shop made the list this time. Twice each month I take a look at inspection results and list every place either listed out of compliance or with 10 or more code violations. Full reports are available online at agriculture.ks.gov.

greatly. Noncritical citations include unlabeled products, improperly stored cleaning materials, minor plumbing issues and more. Critical violations include cross-contamination of raw and cooked

foods, insect and rodent issues, unclean food preparation areas and more. Some violations may be corrected during the inspection, while others take longer to fix and require follow-up inspections. All businesses, even those listed out of compliance, met the basic requirements to safely remain open, unless otherwise noted. With this regular report I try to provide basic information about food inspections in Douglas County. But due to the sheer volume of inspections, it’s difficult to offer detailed information about each establishment. For the second half of

April, nine establishments are either listed out of compliance or have 10 or more code violations. l Sandbar Subs, 745 New Hampshire St., last had a regular inspection on April 28 and 16 violations were found. The restaurant is currently listed as out of compliance. l Eighth Street Taproom, 801 New Hampshire St., last had a regular inspection on April 26 and 11 violations were found.

other lawyers and four public members selected by the governor. One of the five attorneys is the chairman. When a Supreme Court opening occurs, the commission chooses three finalists whose names are sent to the governor for a final selection. Currently the chief justice of the Supreme Court chooses replacements if the chairman or attorney commission members resign before their terms are completed. Under the

proposal, the governor would have chosen people to fill those vacancies. The bill also would have given the authority for counting ballots cast by lawyers for the commission members to the attorney general and secretary of state. Currently, two or more licensed lawyers chosen by the chief justice serve as the canvassers. Democratic Rep. John Carmichael, of Wichita, said that change would violate the separation of powers

between branches of government. “There has never in 50 years been any suggestion of any form of impropriety in connection with those elections,” Carmichael told The Associated Press. “They run efficiently and inexpensively under the direct supervision of the clerk of the Kansas Supreme Court.” The current judicial selection system arose after a 1957 scandal in which the incumbent governor was

defeated in the Republican primary and resigned. The lieutenant governor then appointed him to fill a vacant Supreme Court seat. Attorneys became part of the election process to avoid favoritism. Another provision of the bill would require that the secretary of state receive a roster of lawyers eligible to participate in the elections of the commission’s attorney members. Republican Rep. John Barker, of Abilene, said

during a House debate Thursday that including the secretary of state in the process would not violate the concept of separation of power. “He does it with all other elections, so why not this one?” Republican Rep. Jan Pauls, of Hutchinson, called for the judiciary selection conference report to be considered during a House debate Saturday evening. “This is a very important topic for the state,” Pauls said.

have only been a handful of legal cases involving Article 11, Section 4. One of the few cases found in a historical search of Kansas Supreme Court opinions dealing with that provision said the state could not issue bonds to pay for ordinary legislative expenses. But that case was decided in 1868. Bill Rich, a constitutional law professor at Washburn University, said that under modern standards what Kansas lawmakers have been debating this year has almost become routine. “It would certainly seem (unconstitutional), and at the same time it’s quite in line with a whole series of things that have been done, where a combination of the Legislature and governor have been relying on deficit financing, just by other words, when they figure out ways to issue bonds or to not adequately provide for long-term retirement funds,” Rich said. “If we’re looking just at the spirit of the Constitution, we’ve really gone past that line some time ago,” he said. In the modern era, Kansas lawmakers have engaged in a number of financing and budget-balancing practices that some might call

“creative” to keep the state general fund afloat. One of the most common of those is transferring, or “sweeping,” cash reserves in other specialpurpose funds, primarily the Kansas Department of Transportation’s highway fund, just to keep the state general fund afloat. “When you look on the profiles, and when you look on the revenue sheets that are handed out, revenue comes from a variety of areas including transfers,” said Rep. Marvin Kleeb, R-Overland Park, who chairs the House Taxation Committee. “Transfers are also part of revenues.” Since January 2011, when Brownback came into office, the state has taken more than $1 billion in “special transfers” out of that fund, according to KDOT officials. But the practice did not begin with the Brownback administration. Since 1989 and the passage of the state’s first multiyear highway program, governors of both parties have, at one time or another, used the highway fund to pay for general government expenses. The practice has become so routine, in fact, that many people now jokingly refer to the highway fund as “the

Bank of KDOT.” In January, though, the Brownback administration took that practice to another level, issuing $400 million in highway bonds in a deal structured so that the state will only pay interest on those bonds for the first 10 years. KDOT officials said a major reason for that bond issue was to take advantage of historically low interest rates, which the Federal Reserve Board was expected to raise shortly after the bond issue. But the bonds also served to free up state sales tax revenues that are earmarked for highways, so those could be swept into the general fund without an immediate impact on highway projects. “I don’t see that as categorically different in any meaningful way from what was the underlying point of the Constitution, which was that the state ought to maintain current revenue that matches, or comes close to, revenues,” Rich said. Brownback’s office would not comment when asked whether he thinks the budget plans being discussed are consistent with the Constitution. But former Gov. Kathleen Sebelius, a Democrat, said she believes the budget plan is questionable, if

not unconstitutional. “I’m not a lawyer, so I hesitate to talk about what is and isn’t constitutional,” said Sebelius, who was in Topeka on Saturday for a Democratic Party fundraiser. “But I do know there is a requirement that the governor present to the Legislature a balanced budget and that the Legislature then pass a balanced budget. That’s what the framework is. “So intentionally passing a budget, knowing that there isn’t the revenue, without some additional proposal to go with it, is very difficult,” she said. “But I’ve never seen anything like this in my life.” Meanwhile, Senate Majority Leader Terry Bruce, R-Hutchinson, said he remains hopeful that the budget won’t be as far out of balance as the current estimates forecast and that revenues will pick up between now and the end of the next fiscal year. “I would point out too that Monday (May 2), we should be getting the monthly revenue report, and there’s a lot of folks that have their eye on that, to see whether or not we’re meeting the new projections,” Bruce said.

the crowd and helping people onto the buses, that shows the gravity of how many law enforcement agencies are involved ... it was an all-hands-on-deck type of situation.” Mather said she watched one woman who kept asking as people filed by, “‘Have you seen soand-so, have you seen my friend?’ And finally someone said ‘Oh, she’s back in the line.’ Everyone was trying to gather information ... not just reporters.” She talked to one mother who was talking to her daughter when her cellphone died. “Her mom was standing there clutching her cellphone, hoping and waiting for that call,” Mather said. Mather then drove to a community center where people who survived the shooting were being reunited with their families even as the manhunt continued. Suddenly “you heard this scream of sirens, and you see law enforcement vehicles peel out of the parking lot,” she said. “And you hear it all across the city.” Mather and other reporters followed police but were stopped by a roadblock.

“There were two police officers crouched behind a truck, and they had big rifles pointed off into the distance,” Mather said. “This place ended up being about a mile as the crow flies from where the shootout happened.” Both Farook and Malik were killed during the ensuing shootout. The LA Times rented rooms at La Quinta Inn for its reporters, and Mather spent three days covering the news. On the third day, she went by the apartment where the couple had lived with their baby. The FBI, after gathering evidence, had just released the apartment to the landlord, who then allowed reporters to enter it. “It was such a bizarre, unusual situation for reporters to be in a suspect’s home,” Mather said. Initially there was controversy because the San Bernardino sheriff argued that reporters should not be in the apartment but the FBI responded, saying they had released it and it was up to the landlord. But that controversy was short-lived when the FBI announced that it believed the shootings were

related to terrorism. “So then it was like the entire story shifted,” Mather said. “You had the mass casualty incident, which, unfortunately, we hear too often. But as soon as the word ‘terrorism’ was said, it was a whole different arena. You could almost feel the story elevate.” The newspaper sent a reporter overseas to track down the female suspect’s acquaintances, and some reporters stayed in San Bernardino for weeks. On April 20, the LA Times staff won the Pulitzer Prize in the breaking news reporting category for “exceptional reporting, including both local and global perspectives, on the shooting in San Bernardino and the terror investigation that followed.” Mather said winning the Pulitzer was thrilling. “What was really cool about our work, everyone in the newsroom had a hand in it,” Mather said. “It was not just our metro desk, it was our national team, it was our foreign desk. It was one of those stories everyone pitched in and everybody worked so hard because it was such a big, important story to tell.”

But it also was “a very bittersweet moment,” she said. “While it was such an honor to have our coverage recognized, it was coverage that came from a tragedy,” she said “So you feel awful that it happened in the first place.” In addition, just the week before the mass killing, the LA Times had announced that 80 journalists had accepted buyouts as the newspaper was making serious budget cuts. One of those reporters, Rick Serrano, a former Kansas City Times editor and reporter, who became the LA Times terrorism reporter and covered the Oklahoma City and Sept. 11 terror attacks, left at the end of December as the San Bernardino story was continuing to develop. “Oh my (gosh), Rick was so integral and important to our coverage,” she said. Still, the Lawrence High School graduate, who is here visiting her parents this week said, “This was a team effort. You can’t help but feel energized and feel proud of the work we do after something like that.”

House approves bill Budget limiting local authority

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A

By Peter Hancock Twitter: @LJWpqhancock

Topeka —The Kansas House passed a bill Saturday that takes away the authority of local governments to enact a host of laws or programs that many Republicans consider interference with free market economics. Senate Bill 366 is a conference committee bill that includes provisions of four bills that were passed, in different forms, by one or both of the legislative chambers. One provision, which was aimed specifically at Lawrence, would prohibit local governments from enacting what are called “inclusionary zoning” laws that are aimed at promoting mixed- LEGISLATURE i n c o m e neighborhoods by regulating the sale or resale price of a certain number of homes within a specified area. It’s a concept that has only been informally discussed among Lawrence officials, but it was enough to prompt the Kansas Association of Realtors to push for legislation blocking it. Another provision would prohibit local governments from enacting or enforcing rental property licensing programs that require periodic interior inspections of housing units without the occupant’s consent. A third provision contains what’s commonly known as an “anti-Bloomberg” law, prohibiting local governments from regulating the labeling or nutritional content of food sold in retail stores or vending machines. Such laws are named after former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg, who pushed for a ban on the sale of large sugary soft drinks. But a provision was inserted into the final bill

at the request of Douglas and Johnson counties to exempt what are called “double up” programs, an incentive program for people who receive Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program benefits to buy fresh produce by allowing them to buy twice as much of those foods as the regular price would indicate. Finally, the bill also prohibits local governments from enacting local labor laws that regulate the work schedules and hours of private-sector workers. “Every single provision of this bill is an attack on local control,” said Rep. Boog Highberger, DLawrence. “Every single part of this bill impacts actions that have been taken in my community, by our local elected officials, to try to improve the lives of our citizens.” But Rep. Mark Hutton, R-Wichita, who chairs the House Commerce, Labor and Economic Development Committee where the bills originated, argued that the bill, and the limits on rental inspections in particular, are aimed at protecting individual rights. The bill passed the House, 76-45. The Senate may take up the measure when lawmakers convene today. If it’s approved there, it would be sent to Gov. Sam Brownback. — Statehouse reporter Peter Hancock can be reached at 354-4222 or phancock@ljworld.com.

A few programs, however, would be protected from any future cuts, starting with K-12 education, which accounts for roughly half of all state general fund spending and is currently the subject of an ongoing lawsuit pending before the Kansas Supreme Court. Other programs that would be spared from the budget axe include the Parents as Teachers program, an adult education program for new parents, and domestic violence prevention grants. But other state programs would have to bear a proportionately larger share of future cuts, including Medicaid and higher education, the second and third largest categories of state spending after public schools. Sen. Ty Masterson, RAndover, said some Republican senators object to the idea of protecting any program, including K-12 education, from future cuts. “There are members of the Senate that aren’t comfortable with saying, ‘no, we can’t touch this,’” Masterson said. Other key provisions of the proposed deal include: • Reallocating a 3 percent, or $15 million, cut to higher education that Brownback proposed for both the current and next fiscal year, so that Kansas University and Kansas State University would take proportionately larger cuts, while smaller campuses such as Pittsburg State University and Emporia State University would take smaller cuts. That new formula

L awrence J ournal -W orld

would also apply to any additional cuts Brownback may order later in the year. • Allowing the administration to continue delaying repayment of the $92 million KPERS payment the state missed in April, but earmarking a portion of the state’s tobacco settlement payments, plus any excess general fund revenue the state may receive next year, to repay that money, with 8 percent annual interest. • Prohibiting the administration from privatizing state hospitals at Osawatomie and Larned without approval by the full Legislature. • Prohibiting the administration from doing any demolition of the Docking State Office Building in Topeka without approval by the full Legislature. Under the current plan to cut funding for the state’s six universities, each campus would take a 3 percent cut. That would amount to nearly $4.1 million for KU’s Lawrence campus, and almost $3.1 million for K-State’s main campus in Manhattan. But under the revised plan, KU’s cut would grow to about $5.2 million, and K-State’s cut would grow to more than $4.1 million.

“I think this is an election-year gift to certain legislators who represent certain institutions,” said Sen. Laura Kelly of Topeka, the ranking Democrat on Senate Ways and Means. Masterson confirmed Saturday that the revised plan for higher education cuts was requested by Sen. Jake LaTurner, RPittsburg, whose district includes Pittsburg State University. Sen. Jim Denning, ROverland Park, who is vice chairman of the Senate budget committee, said the plan for delaying the KPERS payment could pose significant problems for the state in the future. “We can never have an ending balance for 10 years on that formula,”

Denning said. “It would take seven to 10 years to pay that KPERS payment off.” House Democratic Leader Tom Burroughs of Kansas City said he thinks the bill will get fewer than 50 votes in the House, where it take at least 63 votes to pass a measure. The House adjourned before debating the bill late Saturday night. Lawmakers plan to reconvene at 12:30 p.m. today. If the bill passes the House, the Senate would vote later. But if it fails, the two chambers would return to the negotiating table, possibly extending the session into the week. — Statehouse reporter Peter Hancock can be reached at 354-4222 or phancock@ljworld.com.

“My family was kind of disappointed that I married an American, to be honest,” Lucy, the longtime owner of Panda Garden, told me recently. Potatoes and American husbands aren’t high on the list of Taiwanese mothers, it seems. “Only the poor would marry a foreigner,” Lucy says. Her family was not poor. Her father was a mechanical engineer, and her mother oversaw a large staff that worked the family’s farm. “Any good class person would not marry outside their world,” Lucy says. “My mother was worried that I married an American. She would send me a bag of rice because only poor people would eat potatoes. Finally, in 1975, I told her to quit sending me rice. I told her I had plenty of rice. That seemed to comfort her a great deal.” But you can’t blame a mother for worrying. After all, Lucy’s life in 1975 already was much different from what she envisioned when she arrived in America three years earlier. lll

In 1972, Lucy figured she would teach Mandarin Chinese to a few American airmen at McConnell Air Force Base in Wichita, get her master’s degree in literature from an American university while doing so, then go back to Taiwan for a lucrative career as a university professor. Her fortune cookie said nothing about three decades of owning and operating a Chinese restaurant in Kansas. No, Lucy decided to come to America while she was working on a U.S. Air Force base in Taiwan. A colleague mentioned the opportunity, and 27-year-old Lucy thought the chance to get an American degree was too good to pass up. But as nervous fathers the world over can attest, sometimes daughters find more than a degree when they go off to college. Lucy fell in love while at Friends University near Wichita. She met Keith White, a friend of a friend, and even though he was in Lawrence and she was in Wichita, the spark still took hold. Yes, the dream of going back to Taiwan to be a professor was still there, until one day it wasn’t. “I changed my dream,” Lucy says. lll

Housing

a subsidy directly to landlords, with tenants paying the difference. A full two years of assistance for each family is important, Oury explained, to allow them enough time to get to the top of the waiting list for a Section 8 voucher. If a family is pulled from a transitional housing program before they make it to the top of the list, they could end up going to other agencies, seeking emergency funds to bridge them between programs. “That’s just a terrible idea,” Oury said. “Those emergency funds are for somebody, for instance, choosing between medication for their kid or paying the rent.”

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A

For the first time in seven months, Brown and her two kids would go to sleep that night in their own space, and not in the homeless shelter. For the first time ever, they had a place that belonged only to them.

Affordable housing ‘severe’ in county A lack of affordable housing is a problem nationwide, with municipalities scrambling for solutions and some experts calling for federal housing policy to address it. The issue has received increased attention in the past year from Lawrence leaders, who ordered the creation of an affordable housing advisory board; reactivated a dormant affordable housing trust fund; and funded the new transitional housing program that helped Brown and her family into an apartment. Now, conversations are beginning on what the city should do next. They’ll decide whether the trust fund should be replenished, and, if so, where that funding should come from. There are some calls for millions of dollars in funding. Discussions begin on Monday about whether affordable units should be a requirement in residential developments receiving city subsidies. “I think Lawrence has always cared about the issue, but I’d say we’ve had more conversations about it and we’ve had a lot of initiative behind it,” said Shannon Oury, executive director of the Lawrence-Douglas County Housing Authority and a member of the new advisory board. “As our population increases and our town grows, I want our affordable housing to grow with it, because Lawrence is a great place to live. And we want to make sure everyone who wants to can live here.” In at least some towns with large universities, such as Lawrence, housing can be especially harsh. Students’ demand for apartments creates an expensive environment for single parents looking in the same market, Oury said. A national ranking of health by county designated Douglas County’s housing problems as “severe” and the secondworst in the state in 2016 behind Riley County. The ranking takes into consideration the cost and quality of housing, and in Douglas County, “what drives us being down here is our cost,” said Dan Partridge, director of the LawrenceDouglas County Health Department. A lack of affordable housing has bred a waiting list — 618 people long at the end of 2015 — for housing vouchers and access to public or other low-income housing. And the list is growing. In the time since Oury took over as director of the Housing Authority five years ago, she’s seen the list increase by more than 160 people, or 36 percent. That doesn’t mean there aren’t success stories. Last year, an average of 22 families were brought into transitional housing each month. Many of those benefiting from transitional housing — 83 percent since 2008 — successfully completed that program. But it does mean people are being added onto the waiting list faster than others can be taken off it. In her office Thursday morning, Oury flipped through a list of about 60 individuals or families waiting for transitional housing. That can include anyone who doesn’t fall into another category, such as seniors

Community Shelter, Bert Nash, EKAN, or other, similar agencies. Brown’s room will go to two single mothers, each with one child, Sanders said. Another couple and their child moved out of the shelter last week, and someone on the list will take their place, too. “When we cycle people out, we cycle people in,” Sanders said. “You just don’t think about it, but we get calls at least three or four days a week, or people show up with their kids, saying, ‘We need someplace to go.’ We are at capacity.

‘A good start’ Brown said she’s motivated to get off assistance as soon as she can. But for now, she’s not ashamed of it, and she’s proud of herself for seeking help. Reclining after work Thursday afternoon in a brown, suede couch she purchased for her new apartment, arms crossed around her body and tears in her eyes, Brown reflected on where she’s been and where she wants to go. “It feels like I accomplished something,” Brown said. “And to see my kids so happy about a house, it just feels really, really good.” Brown wants to volunteer at the shelter, she said. She hopes to talk with others in the position she was just in, to tell them not to be ashamed of seeking help — and that hopefully it would be there for them, like it was for her. “I got talked about, about I didn’t have anything, how I was homeless and lived in a homeless shelter. But we all have — everybody in this world — has a struggle. I have no problem… I’m proud to say, ‘Yes, I did come from the shelter. Yes, I am on a voucher. Yes, I cannot do this stuff on my own.’ But everything is in my name, the lease, the bills. I accomplished something, regardless if I’m on a voucher or not.” Besides other “wraparound” services Brown will receive while she’s going through the transitional housing program, Sanders has said she’ll continue to work with her. When she was living in Mississippi, Sanders, whom Brown calls “Miss Sheryl,” continued to call and check in on her, Brown said. Sanders helped her carry furniture and boxes in Tuesday, and when the women took a few moments to rest, Sanders told Brown how proud she was. “She won’t move out today and that will be it; we’ll stay in the picture as long as she needs us,” Sanders had said earlier. “She’s super excited, but she’s scared, you know. But she’ll be fine. She really will. There’s no doubt in my mind.” For the first time in a long time, Brown is able to look beyond the immediate need for a home and has established goals. She wants to get her high school diploma. She likes her job and wants to work toward a Certified Nursing Assistant license. Most of all, she wants to be a homeowner. “I didn’t think I could accomplish anything, I always thought I had to have a man, always. It turned out I really don’t,” Brown said. “This right here is just pushing me more. This is just the beginning,” she said of the apartment. “As long as I can keep it up, my future — it’s going to be better. This is a good start.” — City Hall reporter Nikki Wentling can be reached at 832-7144 or nwentling@ljworld.com.

Transit plan The city was right to move forward on a grant application for a transportation hub.

he Lawrence City Commission was right Tuesday to support a grant application for a city transportation hub and parking deck on the Kansas University campus. The project will cost an estimated $30 million. The grant seeks $15 million from the U.S. Department of Transportation. KU has pledged to pick up $11 million of the cost, and the city’s share would be $4 million. The site for the project is a parking lot (Lot 90) east of Allen Fieldhouse. It is important to note that agreeing to the grant application does not commit the city. “We can still say no to the project,” Robert Nugent, administrator of the Lawrence Transit System, told city commissioners before Tuesday night’s vote. “What we’re asking is just the opportunity to submit this grant.” Some commissioners initially hesitated because of the increased price — the project initially was estimated to cost $20 million with the city’s portion being $2 million. Danny Kaiser, associate director of KU Parking and Transit, said KU needed the project to be larger to be worth the university’s investment. Plans for the site include approximately 1,400 spaces in a five-story parking deck with a ground-level transportation center that includes a covered waiting area, administrative offices and restrooms. The centrally located multimodal hub is designed to get all city bus routes to half-hour service or less, something that is not possible from the temporary transit hub in the 700 block of Vermont downtown. The city has been working on a permanent transit hub for more than three years and has considered other locations, including 21st and Iowa streets as well as Ninth and Iowa. Those sites initially were rejected by commissioners. Last fall, transit center officials pitched the idea of collaborating with KU on a project to build the hub in Lot 90. The project has merit — the location would benefit the many KU students who ride local buses, it is close to both downtown and west Lawrence and likely can be designed to accommodate the large number of buses without hindering traffic or negatively affecting the nearby neighborhood. For those reasons, the city was smart to join KU in pursuing the grant, the application for which was due Friday. The grant is part of USDOT’s Transportation Investment Generating Economic Recovery (TIGER) program, and funding decisions will be announced this fall. In the meantime, city officials should work on a backup plan in case grant funding for the transit center at KU doesn’t come through or commissioners decide to pursue a transit center at a different location. Voters supported the city’s transit system with a 0.05 percent sales tax in 2008, a tax that expires in 2019. It is high time the city finalize its plans for a central transit center. Tuesday’s vote could be a significant step in that direction. LAWRENCE

Bernie Nation can’t get behind Hillary “And now, the end is near, and so I face the final curtain.” Those are, of course, the opening lyrics to Frank Sinatra’s immortal recording of “My Way.” They are also a succinct description of the state of Bernie Sanders’ presidential campaign. Last week, the candidate announced he was laying off hundreds of staff members after a series of bruising primary losses to Hillary Clinton. She increased her lead in the delegate count and Sanders, who was already walking a narrow pathway to the Democratic nomination, now walks a high wire in a high wind. Though the campaign spun the layoffs as forwardleaning strategy, it was difficult not to read them as a tacit acknowledgment that “the Bern” has all but burned out. Indeed, Sanders has begun to openly ponder — though he still rejects — the idea of losing. It may not be over yet, but the fat lady is running the scales. Now, how to break that to Bernie Nation? Once in a while, a politician leads not a campaign, but a movement. Think Obama in 2008, Reagan in 1980, Bobby Kennedy in 1968, John in 1960. Such candidates catch the Zeitgeist in a bottle. They have not voters, but believers, receive

How ironic that the Sanders campaign, conducted mostly on the high ground of ideas and ideals, descends to cries of boycott and even revolution as it nears its end.”

not support, but faith. That’s Sanders in a nutshell. Small wonder people love him. He has spoken against the corporate hijacking of American government and dreams. And he has pulled the Democratic Party back toward progressive values of which the party has seemed vaguely ashamed ever since the Reagan tsunami rendered “liberal” a four-letter word. But Sanders is not going to win the Democratic nomination. As this sinks in, many of his believers are declaring their intent to boycott the fall election. A recent McClatchy-Marist poll tells

us that one in four citizens of Bernie Nation will refuse to support Hillary Clinton if she is nominated. It was recently suggested on “The Nightly Show with Larry Wilmore” that this may not be the smartest strategy in an election where the specter of a Donald Trump presidency looms. In response, Sanders believer Susan Sarandon invoked John F. Kennedy — “Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable.” “This was our peaceful revolution,” she warned. On the same program, comedian Mike Yard said, “People that supported Bernie are not people that play the game. They’re not afraid to blow (expletive) up. Maybe we need to blow this b—-h up.” They sound like Republicans did in 2008 and 2012. They sound like the kid who snatches his ball and storms out of the park after losing a game. But worse than churlish and childish, they sound Cruz-ish, as in Ted, who is hugely unpopular not just for his harshly conservative ideology, but even more for his hardline absolutism, his willingness to drive the nation off a cliff rather than bend. He, too, is unafraid “to blow (expletive) up.” Wasn’t that the takeaway

from 2013’s disastrous government shutdown and multiple iterations of the manufactured debt ceiling crisis? It comes, then, to this. The extreme left now mirrors the extreme right, each reflecting the anger and unbending rigidity of the other. And the idea that politics is the art of compromise, where everybody gets something but nobody gets everything, seems a lost artifact from a distant age. How ironic that the Sanders campaign, conducted mostly on the high ground of ideas and ideals, descends to cries of boycott and even revolution as it nears its end. Granted, nobody likes to lose. But the loss was fair and square and those citizens of Bernie Nation who can’t deal with that, who want to opt out of the system or take up arms against it, should be ashamed of themselves. One feels sorry for them. The nomination is the least of what they’ve lost. Note: I made an editing error in a recent column about death row inmate Duane Buck, which made it seem as if he killed three people in his 1995 rampage. He killed two. The third person, his stepsister Phyllis Taylor, survived the shooting. — Leonard Pitts Jr., winner of the 2004 Pulitzer Prize for commentary, is a columnist for the Miami Herald.

No more quiet

A jungle of pleasant memories I was listening to a radio review of Disney’s new blockbuster “The Jungle Book,” when I heard Mowgli’s name pronounced “Mow-gli,” as in “mow the yard,” rather than “Maogli,” as in “Mao Tse-tung.” I was offended, outraged. My childhood memories had been violated. The name was pronounced Mao-gli on the 78 rpm record I listened to some 70 years ago. For me, that pronunciation is authoritative. Enough said. As I listened to the review, Mowgli and his jungle came back to me with vivid clarity over the long arc of time and I heard again the sing-song voice of Sabu, who played the part of Mowgli, pictured on the record cover as a wild-looking, long-haired youth wearing nothing but a loin cloth: “My name is Mowgli. It means the Little Frog. This is the name the wolf pack gave me…” Mowgli had been raised by a wolf pack in the jungles of India. He lived among wild animals whose characters were represented by musical instruments — Bagheera, the black panther … Kaa, the python … Baloo, the bear ... and the tribe of monkeys called the Bandar Log. In my innocent imagination, these characters were real. Mowgli represented freedom, adventure, dan-

I was in the tree with Peter when he lowered his rope and marched in triumph with him after he’d lassoed the wolf. Remember, this was before television when records and the radio were the vehicles of entertainment and you had to conjure up your own images. You played a more active role. Your imagination was more engaged. In some ways, the experience was more intense than watching. Long ago those records were put away and soon enough reality molded me into one more conventional little man, sat me at a desk with a filing cabinet and assigned me a catalogue of petty duties and worries. But the memories didn’t vanish. They just waited for a cue. And when they returned they’d lost nothing of their power and wonder. For a priceless moment, I was a child again.

To the editor: The old library used to be a quiet place to read or use the computers. Things changed quite a bit after we moved to the Borders building; but it was a smaller building with everyone closer, and cellphones and babies crying raised the noise level. But we survived it, and finally the new library opened. Apparently a lot of people grew accustomed to the noise because the new library is a lot noisier. And the new rule seems to be noise is welcome and peace and quiet are hindering freedom of speech. When someone hollers at the computer game blaring through his headphones, it is hard to tell who he is calling a coward in a loud, aggressive voice. Other patrons shouldn’t have to decide whether to take it personally or not. It should never have reached that point. Tom Wiles, Lawrence

Security restored after protests in Baghdad’s Green Zone Protected area for officials breached by those impatient for reforms

Doug Stanglin @dstanglin USA TODAY

Iraqi Prime Minister Haider Al-Abadi said Saturday that security had been restored in Baghdad but called on demonstrators who stormed the capital’s heavily fortified Green Zone and broke into parliament to return to “designated protest areas.” The prime minister issued the appeal on Twitter after hours of rowdy protests by hundreds of people chanting and waving Iraqi flags in the highly protected zone that houses government minis-

tries, parliament and foreign embassies, including the U.S. embassy. Security forces generally appeared to maintain restraint amid the chaos, but did use tear gas against crowds at one entrance to the Green Zone, according to the Associated Press. Authorities declared a state of emergency as protesters breached barriers and broke windows of cars belonging to members of parliament. Supporters of Shiite cleric Muqtada al-Sadr have been holding rallies, protests and sit-ins outside the walls of the Green Zone for months to demand po-

The goal in ending the parties’ “quota system,” which divides power between Shiites, Sunnis and Kurds, would be to reduce rampant bribery and embezzlement. The system also reserves the post of president for a Kurd and of prime minister for a Shiite. Iraq has been mired in a political crisis for months, hindering the government’s ability to combat the Islamic State — which still controls much of the country’s north and west.

tions. The two younger patients had acute leukemia, which was detected only after death. All of the patients had fever. Three were dehydrated, and three had very low platelet levels. “As the number of infected grows, complications such as death that are rare become measurable,” said Amesh Adalja, a senior associate at the Center for Health Security at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center. “We can expect to see more (deaths) until the spread of this virus is halted.” Deaths are more common in other viral diseases, such as dengue and chikunguyna, which are transmitted by the same mosquito species that transmits Zika, the Aedes aegypti, Adalja said. There are four types of dengue virus. Patients often survive a

first infection with dengue with few serious problems. Patients may suffer serious complications, however, if they develop a second dengue infection. Some scientists have speculated that some of Zika might also be more dangerous in people who have had dengue. Peter Hotez, dean of the National School of Tropical Medicine at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston, said he hopes researchers find out whether the man who died had suffered from dengue. Although 426 travelers have been diagnosed with Zika in the continental U.S., the virus is not yet spreading among mosquitoes here, and there have not been any homegrown cases, according to the CDC. The Obama administration this week announced that it will provide $5 million to Puerto Rican health clinics.

Warren Buffett told his flock of followers at Berkshire Hathaway’s annual shareholder meeting Saturday that first-quarter earnings jumped 8.2% to $5.59 billion and reiterated that he’s still on the lookout for big acquisitions but isn’t ready to name a successor. The Oracle of Omaha also defended Coca-Cola, one of his top holdings, and blasted the pricey business model of hedge funds and advised mom-and-pop investors to avoid the Wall Street marketing machine and instead build their stock portfolios around lowcost index funds. Saturday’s event marks the first time Berkshire Hathaway and Buffett, the company’s chairman and CEO, live-streamed its annual meeting — dubbed the “Woodstock of Capitalism” — around the globe. Roughly 40,000 Berkshire investors made the pilgrimage to Omaha. At the closely watched gathering at the CenturyLink Center, Buffett, 85, and Berkshire vice chairman Charlie Munger, 92, fielded questions for hours from journalists and analysts. Heading

Berkshire’s A shares (BRK-A) are up 10.7% so far in 2016, soundly topping the 1% gain for the broad U.S. stock market, measured by the Standard & Poor’s 500 stock index. Despite the solid stock performance, Buffett cited weakness in Berkshire’s key insurance and railroad holdings. In five hours of Q&A, Buffett addressed a wide variety of issues. Topics ranged from: uWho’s going to replace him as CEO when he’s gone. As usual, Buffett didn’t name names. He cited two reasons for not doing so. One, the timing of the switch is still unknown. Second, he notes that the personal “situation” of the successor could change before the job becomes available. uThe outlook for Precision Castparts, Berkshire’s biggest ac-

decided. For a court that has leaned conservative for decades, the question is whether the two-year trend indicates a fundamental change or a legal version of a stock market correction. Until a ninth justice is named, the answer will remain elusive. “It’s something of a realignment after an extreme push to the right led by Justices Scalia and (Samuel) Alito,” said Elizabeth Wydra, president of the liberal Constitutional Accountability Center. “I think there’s some pullback from that very ideological push.” Only the most closely divided cases — those that used to result in 5-4 decisions — are directly affected by Scalia’s death. In a major case on public employee unions, his absence caused a 4-4 tie that left intact a decision by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit allowing the California Teachers Association to continue collecting fees from non-members. Similar 4-4 votes on some of the term’s major remaining cases could boost conservative causes, based on federal appeals court decisions. That would apply to immigration and abortion cases from the more conservative U.S.

However, Texas’ tough restrictions on abortion clinics are more likely to be struck down with the help of Justice Anthony Kennedy, who often sides with the court’s liberal bloc.

tens of millions of Target customers in 2013, YouGov’s measurement of brand perception for the company, based on what consumers see and hear, fell roughly 60 points. In the past two weeks, Target’s brand perception has fallen just eight points. Still, Target has clearly hit a nerve in the national debate over LGBT rights and sexuality. “I don’t think it’s a statement that people aren’t in favor of equal rights for transgender people,” Marzilli says of the data. “It shows people just kind of demonstrating that they’re uncomfortable, or uncertain about how comfortable they are, with mixed public restrooms.” More than 1 million people have signed a petition started by the conservative Christian group American Family Association to boycott Target over its policy. Target spokeswoman Molly Snyder says the company doesn’t comment on performance, such as sales and traffic, outside of earnings releases. Several major brands have come out in support of transgender-inclusive bathroom policies

or LGBT rights more generally, calling into question how much Target will be affected by its stance. Other brands with the same position on the issue, such as Starbucks, are absent from the debate and don’t appear to be suffering any consequences. Even AFA, which frequently speaks out against companies it believes threaten traditional family values, seems to have a confusing relationship with Target, naming the company on its 2015 “nice” list of brands considered “Christmas-friendly” in the way they market to shoppers during the holidays. While it may lose some customers who didn’t shop there often, the brand could gain just as many shoppers who are happy with its positions on social issues, says Melissa Arnoff, senior vice president at Levick, a crisis communications firm. “I don’t think they stand to lose much at all,” she says. “This isn’t unusual for them. It’s actually very true to who they say they are as a brand. I think the people who shop there loyally know that.”

FIORINA SERENADES DURING VP ANNOUNCEMENT

Ted Cruz’s announcement that Carly Fiorina would join him on the GOP ticket was unusual for a couple of reasons. First, there was the obvious political one, which is that Cruz is trailing Donald Trump badly in delegates — particularly after Trump’s five-state primary sweep on Tuesday — and the announcement of a running mate almost always comes after a candidate has clinched the presidential nomination. In fact, the last time someone did so in advance of securing the top spot on the ticket was Ronald Reagan in 1976, in what was ultimately a losing bid to defeat Gerald Ford at the Republican convention. The other reason the Fiorina announcement was a bit unconventional? She sang to Cruz’s daughters during her speech, with lyrics that included: “I know two girls that I just adore, I’m so happy I can see them more.” While we did not conduct an exhaustive review of past announcements to determine whether this was a historical first, we’re reasonably certain Joe Biden and Dick Cheney did not break into song when they were tapped as running mates.

TRUMP, CLINTON DEBATE THE ‘WOMAN’S CARD’

Trump raised some eyebrows with his remarks after his Tuesday primary wins that he believed Hillary Clinton wouldn’t “get 5% of the vote” if she were a man, and her political success was because she had “the woman’s card.”. Later in the week during a Today show interview, he didn’t back down, arguing that “nobody respects women more than I do” and that “everything she says is about the woman’s card.” Clinton responded that “if fighting for women’s health care and paid family leave and equal pay is playing the woman card, then deal me in.” Her campaign also offered supporters an actual “official woman card.” IT’S NO FUN WORKING WITH ‘LUCIFER IN THE FLESH’

No one gets along with everyone they work with, but it’s rare anyone would describe a former colleague the way former House speaker John Boehner characterized Ted Cruz during an appearance at Stanford University on Wednesday. Of the Texas senator, Boehner said he’s “Lucifer in the flesh” and that he’s “never worked with a more AFP/GETTY IMAGES miserable son of John a bitch in my Boehner life.” Cruz didn’t seem too bothered by it, responding that he barely knew him and that Boehner was letting his “inner Trump come out.” If there were a Capitol Hill version of The Office, sounds like the Boehner-Cruz episode would’ve been a doozy.

WOMAN, 4 GRANDCHILDREN KILLED IN TEXAS FLOOD

A car bombing Saturday killed at least 21 people and wounded dozens more in Baghdad, the Associated Press reported. At least 42 people were injured after a man driving a car detonated a bomb in the southeastern section of the city, the AP reported. CNN said up to 24 could be dead. The suicide bombing occurred as thousands of Shiite worshippers from across the country are expected to walk to Baghdad’s holy shrine of 8th-century Imam Moussa al-Kadhim. This attack occurred just days after a suicide bomber blew up his car in the capital’s eastern Shiite-dominated New Baghdad neighborhood, killing at least 12 civilians. No one had claimed responsibility for Saturday’s attack. — Steph Solis

A 64-year-old woman and her four grandchildren were killed early Saturday when floodwaters ripped through their neighborhood in Palestine, Texas. The bodies of the five victims were found near one of the homes on their street in the early morning hours, according to the the Palestine Police Department. The four children were ages 6, 7, 8 and 9. The names of the victims were not immediately released. “The water was up to the roofline of the homes and that’s what prevented the people from being able to get away,” said Capt. James Muniz. “The water just came up too fast.” — Katharine Lackey NEW POLL: CRUZ LEADS TRUMP IN INDIANA

A new poll gives Texas Sen. Ted

The Mike Downs Center for Indiana Politics poll puts GOP front-runner Donald Trump in second place with 29% and Ohio Gov. John Kasich in third with 13.3% of the vote. But 13% of Hoosier voters surveyed said voluntarily that they didn’t know who they would vote for — and, paired with a 4.9% margin of error, that could still put the candidates in a neck-andneck race. “I can understand this might be an incredibly optimistic poll for Cruz,” said Andy Downs, director of the politics center. “But I think there must be something going on in the electorate that makes the race closer than some people think,” he added. — Stephanie Wang, The Indianapolis Star

WANT TO OWN A PIECE OF SCOTLAND?

FORGET ABOUT IT Activists seek change in election this week Dominic Hinde

Special for USA TODAY DORES , SCOTLAND

On the banks of the famous Loch Ness, Evan Beswick gazes at a scattering of low, slate-roofed houses in the woodlands across from this tiny village. The shores are dotted with castles and hunting estates. The houses he points to are far from luxurious, but “we couldn’t just save up and buy one of those at the prices they go for,” he said. Beswick, 30, and his girlfriend are struggling to buy their first home. Like many young people across the Scottish Highlands, they find the abundance of wide open land does not make it easy to purchase real estate. Scotland has some of the largest areas of undeveloped land in Europe. It also has the most un-

equal division of landownership. Some politicians running in Thursday’s Scottish Parliamant elections pledge to remedy that inequity and help Scots such as Beswick buy homes. The nation is roughly the same size as South Carolina — 30,000 square miles — but only 432 people own half the land. Sixteen of them own a staggering 10% of Scotland’s territory. Many Scottish families have lived for generations as tenants in villages on wealthy landowners’ property. That means land for building is in short supply, and homeownership is beyond many Scots grappling with high housing prices and landowners who don’t want to sell space for development. Landowners defend the system, arguing that their property rights are not up for debate. Viscount William Waldorf Astor, father in law of U.K. Prime Minister David Cameron, has attacked Scotland’s land activists for wanting a “Mugabe-style land grab,” a reference to Zimbabwean dicta-

Andy Wightman, who is running for Parliament, wants more Scots to own land.

tor Robert Mugabe’s seizure of white-owned farms. Beswick has long dreamed of building a home on some of the hundreds of empty square miles around Loch Ness. He tried unsuccessfully to pool money with friends to acquire land for a small-scale housing development. “Land is so hard to get hold of,” he said. “We were a group of pretty well-educated, energetic people, but after two years of trying, we were not able to get anything.” Scotland has a long and brutal history of land conflict. In the 18th and 19th centuries, poor farmers were forcibly moved by landowners to make way for livestock. Reduced to poverty, thousands emigrated to the Americas and Australia. Today’s huge and often empty estates are a result of this process, known as the Highland Clearances. Highland estate owners include some of the world’s wealthiest people. Sheik Mohammed Bin Rashid al-Maktoum of Dubai, United Arab Emirates; British Queen Elizabeth II; and Kjeld Kirk Kristiansen, heir to the Lego

toy empire, own huge tracts of rural Scotland. Donald Trump got in the act when he purchased the Menie estate in Aberdeenshire to build a luxury golf course. Scottish leaders hope the elections will strengthen their push for radical changes to landownership laws. Leading that drive is Andy Wightman, a forester, writer and veteran activist who wrote a landmark exposé of who owns Scotland’s land. He noted that tax arrangements mean even the biggest landowners pay about $4,000 a year to county authorities. Many estates are set up as offshore trusts, reducing the amount of United Kingdom taxes they pay on their business activities. Wightman, 52, who is running as a Green Party candidate, said he is determined to give Scots their land back if elected to the assembly in Edinburgh. “When you ask questions about land and power and money, people feel uncomfortable. It was an unspoken issue,” he said. “Most of the laws regarding land have been made by those who stand to benefit.” The ruling Scottish National Party recently enacted a law that slightly expanded a 2003 measure to give communities rights to buy land. About 500,000 acres was brought under community ownership as allowed by the 2003 law and was opened for housing, parks, farms and other public uses. Wightman and his fellow activists want to go further — to ban offshore companies holding land, so the landowner identities are public; impose higher taxes to give landowners an incentive to sell to tenants; and give communities more power to build schools, wind turbines and other developments, as well as a first say to purchase land when it becomes available. Edward Mountain, a landowner also running for a seat in the Scottish Parliament, opposes both independence for Scotland — voters rejected a referendum to do that two years ago — and the campaigns to make more private land public through new taxes and state funding for community buyouts. “I would rather talk about land use than landownership, but that isn’t the government agenda,” he said. “If there was a magic way of making money out of land, I think I would know about it, but there isn’t. Just passing it on to the community will put a burden on the taxpayer. We should be spending that money on education and health care.”

Right-wing parties threaten to upend the EU ‘Europe is disintegrating’ as voters rebuff centrist parties that have led for almost a century

Paul Ames

Special for USA TODAY

After decades of backing mainstream politics, European voters across the continent are increasingly empowering right-wing parties to upend Europe’s long march toward a common economic, social and political union. Last Sunday, a right-wing, antiimmigrant party candidate won the most votes in the first round of Austria’s presidential election, a rebuke of the center-left and centrist parties that have dominated the country’s politics for 70 years. Two weeks earlier, Dutch voters dealt a blow to European Union foreign policy by rejecting a treaty favored by the mainstream parties that would tie Ukraine closer to the 28-nation union. The rejection of the treaty signals “the beginning of the end” for the EU, said Geert Wilders, founder of the right-wing Dutch Party for Freedom. “Europe is disintegrating as we speak,” said Sophia in ’t Veld, a Dutch liberal member of the European Parliament. “It’s a risk everywhere.” Nigel Farage, leader of the antiimmigration U.K. Independence Party, says such votes are only preludes to the critical June 23 “Brexit” referendum on whether Britain should exit the EU, a move that could trigger disintegration of the economic and political alliance that Europe’s ruling parties have been building. “Things are changing. I don’t believe these (EU) institutions can survive,” Farage said. The upstart politicians’ targets are centrist leaders who have supported the cause for European unity since the 1950s, pushing for common trade, immigration, currency and budgetary rules at the price of national sovereignty and discretion in implementing social policies.

In France, officials of the socialist government are considering a centrist coalition to thwart the conservative National Front, whose leader, Marine Le Pen, topped a recent BVA poll with as much as 30% for next year’s presidential election in the first round of voting. “We have to get over partisan divides,” French Prime Minister Manuel Valls told the Paris daily Libération. “My roots are on the left, but I think that on the big issues we can perfectly well get together. ... The upcoming presidential election can’t be a repeat of classic left-right confrontations.” In Germany, Chancellor Angela Merkel’s center-right Christian Democratic Union is seeing the emergence of Alternative for Germany, a right-wing party that scored successes in three state elections in March by campaigning against Merkel’s welcome of more than 1 million migrants and her support of coordinated EU economic policies. In Italy, Prime Minister Matteo Renzi is rallying a coalition against an anti-EU 5-Star Movement and anti-immigration Northern League. Conservative nationalists already are in power in Hungary and Poland, where they are challenging EU unity over how to stem the flood of migrants entering Europe. Their consolidation of power and crackdown on press freedom has raised concerns elsewhere in the EU. In ’t Veld, the Dutch politician, sees parallels between the rise of the right in Europe and support for Republican presidential frontrunner Donald Trump in the United States. “I see exactly the same brand of populism, the same political discourse, the same issues, the same polarization,” she told USA TODAY. Many of Europe’s conservative politicians admire the U.S. billionaire candidate. “Go Donald

Geert Wilders of the Netherlands is another Trump fan. With his anti-Muslim, anti-migrant rhetoric, he may be the European politician whose style is most like Trump’s. His Party of Freedom is

vying for first place in the Netherlands’ fragmented political system. In ’t Veld said globalization, the pace of technological change and urbanization have made voters “feel uneasy, insecure, afraid.” “They are blaming immigrants, they are blaming Muslims, they are blaming the EU, because they feel that everything they have learned, all their coping mechanisms, but also their prospects for the future, everything has changed, nothing is certain anymore.” Some analysts say the power of the anti-EU parties may be overstated. For example, less than a third of Dutch voters turned out for the referendum, because some EU supporters stayed home in hopes turnout would drop below the 30% threshold needed to validate the result. “We have to be very careful with what we see and not jump to conclusions and think that the Netherlands has gone mad and everyone is voting for Wilders,” said Adriaan Schout, Europe coordinator at the Clingendael Netherlands Institute of International Relations. “This is not necessarily anti-European, this is saying, ‘Give us a good Europe.’ ” Still, the campaign for the United Kingdom’s exit from the EU has impressive backing from many senior leaders in the governing Conservative Party, as well as the right-wing Independence Party. And while most polls show a slight lead for the “remain in the EU” camp — which includes Prime Minister David Cameron — the fear is that EU opponents are more passionate and, thus, more likely to vote. “Those who favor European and international cooperation are on the defensive,” said Michiel van Hulten, a former chairman of the Dutch Labor Party. “Advocates for EU cooperation need to be much more forceful and persuasive.”

Industrial town lifted by rebound in energy prices Matt Krantz @mattkrantz USA TODAY

Forget sports teams. Cities have a new way to claim bragging rights: how shares of their local companies perform. Pittsburgh finished tops among 25 key U.S. cities between the close of Dec. 30, 2015, and March 31, 2016, according to new stock market indices that measure stock price changes of companies headquartered in those cities. The town perhaps better known for its famed NFL football team saw its index rise 25.7% during the period, measured by investment manager LocalShares, topping the 0.2% decline by the Standard & Poor’s 500. The City of Bridges was a standout even among the winners. Trailing Pittsburgh as No. 2 and No. 3 in terms of stock price performance during the period came Houston with a 7.2% gain and Kansas City with a 6.3% rise, according to LocalShares data. Each of these cities gained from a strong bounceback in energy and materials prices in the first quarter, as they each have a heavy weighting of companies from those industries, says Matthew Hayes, president of the investment division of LocalShares. The Industrial Select Sector SPDR, Materials Select Sector SPDR and Energy Select Sector SPDR exchange-traded funds rose 4.6%, 3.2% and 2.6%, respectively, during the quarter. “After a substantial downturn in these markets (commodities, materials and energy), there was a wonderful comeback,” Hayes says. “Cities that performed best were those with a hearty and strong base of headquartered companies” in those industries. Pittsburgh-based United States Steel (X), one of the companies with the largest weightings in the Pittsburgh index, rose 100% during the first quarter amid the materials stock rebound. Shares of the company — battered by the downturn in steel demand in Asia — are still trading for a third of what they were 12 months ago. The rebound in materials and energy prices has had an outsized effect on which cities fared best, Hayes says. The 10 cities of the 25 tracked by LocalShares that outperformed the S&P 500 during the period analyzed all have traditionally strong industrial bases. In Pittsburgh, for instance, seven of the 10 stocks with the largest weightings in the index are in the energy, materials or industrials sectors.

ABOUT THE INDEX Unlike most mainstream stock indexes that give greater weighting to stocks with the highest market values, these city indexes use a proprietary system that give stocks with factors Local Shares deems attractive a larger weighting. The indexes give greater weightings to stocks based on their volatility, dividend yield, free cash flow growth and stock-price momentum. Currently, investors can only actually invest in the Nashville Area ETF (NASH) as it’s the sole index that’s been turned into an exchange-traded fund. But investors will increasingly pay attention to the cities where companies are headquartered and factor that data into their investment decisions, says Margaret Dolan, president of the knowledge division of Local Shares. “Headquarters matter. That’s the brain trust. There’s a reason why cities in the U.S. compete for headquarters of companies,” she says. Dolan says political and economic decisions made by cities can influence the success of companies and be a driver of investment results. “It’s not just a spectator sport,” she says.

BUSINESS SURVEILLANCE PIRACY STINGS NIGERIAN OIL In a nutshell: Depressed oil prices, rampant corruption and pipeline vandalism are only parts of Nigeria’s oil problem, writes Irina Slav of OilPrice.com The upshot: It’s now losing a massive 400,000 barrels of crude daily to pirates in the Gulf of Guinea, an amount equal to the entire daily export capacity of its Forcados terminal. The money: Overall damage from piracy, theft and fraud for Africa’s largest oil exporter is estimated at some $1.5 billion a month, according to U.S. deputy ambassador to the United Nations Michele Sison, citing a Chatham House report.

ON THE FRONT BURNER OIL PRICES JUMP IN APRIL Oil prices finished their best month in a year on Friday and are headed back toward $50 a barrel, offering a respite to beleaguered energy producers even though they reported some of their worst quarterly results in years. Benchmark U.S. oil futures rose 20% in April, despite a slight slip Friday, and have surged 75% since bottoming out in February at a 13-year low. The rally has been more powerful than most analysts and investors anticipated. Declining U.S. production, corporate cost-cutting and production outages around the world have raised hopes that the crude-oil glut might be easing. IN THE HOT SEAT DOLE FACES LISTERIA PROBE The U.S. Justice Department has launched a criminal investigation into Dole Food Co. over a listeria outbreak linked to four deaths in the U.S. and Canada and multiple other illnesses, according to a post in The Wall Street Journal. Dole “has recently been contacted” by the DOJ regarding the outbreak, which involved packaged salad produced in its Springfield, Ohio, facility, the company said, adding that it was cooperating with the investigation.

IN THE WEST, VICTORIES FOR SOME EMPLOYEES

@Pdavidsonusat USA TODAY

The nation’s growing army of contingent workers is increasingly demanding, and often winning, higher pay and benefits and union membership, pushing back against efforts by companies to deploy a less costly, more flexible workforce. An Ohio supplier of axles to Ford recently agreed to let its entire staff of 58 temporary workers join the United Auto Workers after they threatened to strike. Last month, Washington University in St. Louis announced a tentative four-year contract that raises the pay of adjunct professors. And a new Seattle law would allow Uber and Lyft drivers to form unions. “These workers are standing up and claiming a greater share of the profits their labor has generated,” says Sarah Leberstein, senior staff attorney for the National Employment Law Project, a worker advocacy group. Some, she says, have been inspired by walkouts by fast-food workers, many of whom are part time, and their demands for $15an-hour pay, a movement that led to legislation setting that pay floor in California and New York in a few years. And with unemployment at 5%, the victories reflect a tighter labor market that has shifted leverage to workers and the power temporary and part-time employees are beginning to wield as their ranks swell. “Employers are going to start having trouble finding workers they need at the wages they’re paying,” says Upjohn Institute economist Susan Houseman. In recent years, businesses have relied increasingly on contingent workers to cut costs, meet fluctuating demand and tap specialized skills for short-term projects. The trend intensified during and after the recession in 2007-09 as firms tightened their belts. About 20% of the U.S. workforce is made up of contingent

Other wins by contingent workers: uAdjunct faculty. The contract for adjunct professors at Washington University was the latest in a flurry of such victories at private colleges and universities. So-called non-tenure-track faculty were members of the Service Employees International Union at just two private schools three years ago, but they have joined at 33 since, the SEIU says. The trend, it says, is largely a response to a shift: 70% of university faculty are on non-tenure tracks, mostly adjuncts, up from 30% in the 1970s. At Washington, adjuncts earn a median of $4,500 per class per semester, or $27,000 to $36,000 a year for those teaching three to four classes — equivalent to other low-wage workers even though many have doctorates, says adjunct English professor Michael O’Bryan. Besides pay hikes, they’ll get fees if classes are canceled at the 11th hour. uWarehouse workers. The past few years, some of the 100,000 warehouse workers in Southern California have secured better working conditions and recouped unpaid wages after staging walkouts or filing claims with regulators or courts. The vast majority are non-unionized, and many are temporary. About 500 of the temp workers have gained permanent status, says Sheheryar Kaoosji, co-director of the Warehouse Worker Resource Center, which supports the employees. uUber drivers. In December, Seattle passed a law allowing Uber and Lyft drivers to form unions, even though the firms consider them independent contractors and are likely to challenge the measure.

workers — including temporary and part-time employees, contractors and freelancers — up from 12% in 2010, according to Staffing Industry Analysts. Temps typically earn less, have fewer benefits and little job security. There’s no reliable data on the share of such workers who are union members, though there may be hints. From 2013 to 2015, the portion of all U.S. workers in unions fell to 11.1% from 11.3%, continuing a decades-long trend, Labor Department figures show. The unionized portion of administrative and support employees

— a category that includes temps hired through staffing agencies — rose to 3.5% from 3.1%. Temporary and part-time workers in fields such as janitorial services, home health care and security have been organizing for at least 30 years, says Kate Bronfenbrenner, director of labor education research at Cornell University. What’s new, she says, is the rapid rise in contingent workers and their spread to higher-skill occupations in sectors such as technology and academia. Some are pressing for unions. They’re also unionizing or stepping up demands in fields that hadn’t been hospitable to such challenges. Temps make up 14% of the auto parts workforce, but they aren’t unionized, according to NELP and UAW. Workers at the axle-making plant in Avon, Ohio, had clout in part because all are temporary, says Ken Lortz, head of the UAW’S Region 2B who led the organizing effort. The Detroit Chassis plant is the only one producing axles and mounting them on tires for the heavy-duty trucks assembled at a nearby Ford factory. A strike would have shut down the Ford plant, Lortz says, and a replacement temporary workforce could not have been recruited quickly. The workers earn $9.50 to $11.50 an hour, and auto parts temps on average make 29% less than direct employees of manufacturers, NELP says. The Avon employees, who are slated to be converted to permanent employees of Detroit Chassis, seek higher wages and better benefits through collective bargaining. “We were just tired of the low wages and knowing that Ford is selling the trucks for $60,000, and workers at Ford are making $20 an hour,” says employee Kevin Patton, 43. Other plants may follow. Houseman says auto parts factories across western Michigan are struggling to recruit temporary workers in a tight job market and are “beginning to question the temp model.”

Called Chromebook 13 and constructed of a brushed anodized aluminum body, the new computer is about half an inch thin and weighs under 3 pounds. The base unit starts at $499. Of course, with more robust specs, the price of Chromebook 13 can climb north of a grand. The 13.3-inch display with QHD resolution looks impressive, though there is no current touchscreen option, something I fre-

During Thursday’s press event, HP and Google emphasized Chromebook 13’s use in enterprise environments and demonstrated how the docked unit could drive full “virtualized” (through Citrix) versions of Excel and PowerPoint on one monitor and an Android version of Evernote on another, with no visible lag in performance. But they also plan to sell the computers for home and educational use.

PERSONAL FINANCE Robert Powell Special for USA TODAY

What is the “probability of ruin,” Q and why has it become a popular way to help retirees take stock of their retirement plan?

A: Think of the probability of ruin like a weather forecaster giving you the probability of rain. It’s a real easy and intuitive number to grasp, between zero (i.e., no rain) and 100 (i.e., rain for sure). The same idea has been applied by the financial planning industry to inform clients about the chances they will meet their retirementincome goals. It’s reported as a number between zero and 100. Zero means that you will run out of money for certain and 100 means that you will be perfectly OK. That is the basic idea.

GETTY IMAGES/ ISTOCKPHOTO

You expressed concern that these Q probabilities are being

used (and abused) to both reassure and scare retirees about the viability of their plans. Why so?

IT’S EASY TO BOTCH ODDS OF RETIREMENT RUIN

etirees often are told of the odds of running out of money during their lifetime. Advisers will tell them, for instance, that if they withdraw 4% per year from their nest egg, there’s a good chance they’ll be able to fund their desired lifestyle over the course of 30 years. But if they withdraw more, the odds of outliving their assets grow; they might have only an 85% probability of meeting all their life’s financial goals. But retirement researchers are beginning to question the value of what they refer to as “probabilities of ruin” in retirement planning and say that such measures ought to be, well, retired. In the March/April 2016 edition of the CFA Institute’s Financial Analysts Journal, Moshe Milevsky, a York University professor, made that very case.

ALEX UROSEVIC

Moshe Milevsky

A: Well, think back to the weather analogy. A 100% probability of rain could simply be a light drizzle (for which you might not even want to take an umbrella). Or, a 100% probability of rain could come with tornado-level winds and hail. The probability number doesn’t really mean much in and of itself. It must be accompanied with more information about magnitude.

What are the problems associated with using failure probabilities?

A: If the probability of precipitation is 40%, will you take an umbrella to work? How about 70%? Or what about 20%? What number is the point at which you say, “Jeez, it’s going to rain. I’m taking the umbrella.” It’s personal. There really is no consensus in the financial-planning industry around an acceptable probability of failure.

PETE THE PLANNER

As I mentioned, the number itself might not capture the magnitude of how bad the rain will be. Imagine a 15% probability of rain (not bad), but if it does rain it will be 10 inches. (Wow, scary!) The only way to be able to forecast these things is based on prior data or history. There simply isn’t enough history to be able to forecast these things with confidence in the context of financial markets. Yes, we have had rain for millennia, so the data is better. Not so with stock markets. The models or computer algorithms being used to generate these forecasts aren’t very transparent or widely accepted. Unlike meteorology, there really isn’t a scientific consensus on how to build these very long-term forecasts. In fact, while the weatherman might feel quite comfortable forecasting the weather in the next few days, it would be ludicrous to do this for some date 10 years from today. Financial-planning models are trying to forecast the “financial weather” in 50 years. The financial world isn’t old enough. Because people like the idea of 100% safety and security, investors often fall into the trap of buying insurance products that are marketed as 100% secure, when in fact there are risks there as well. Yes, if you stay inside all day the probability you will get wet from the rain is zero, but if the rain is really a hurricane and your home is made of hay, you will get soaked.

What are some Q better ways to communicate the viability or sustainability of a retirement plan so that people understand it?

A: What I’m proposing is that financial advisers use simpler language to help individuals plan their retirement. I like the analogy to medical life expectancy. A doctor can tell you how long you can expect to live in retirement, somewhere between 15 or 30 years. Likewise, a financial adviser should be able to compute the “longevity” of your portfolio in years. So, next time you have a conversation with your financial adviser, ask them to compute the longevity of your portfolio — in years.

Are you financially ready to own a home? Peter Dunn Special for USA TODAY

Mortgage rates are low, the housing market remains hot(ish), and it’s home-buying season. Prospective homeowners all over America are licking their chops for a piece of the pie. For those folks who are going to complete the buying process without any savings left after closing, in the words of Public Enemy’s Chuck D I say to you, welcome to the terrordome. “But Pete, I just got approved for a mortgage, and we didn’t even have much money to put down,” you retort. I know. You’re now making my point. Getting approved for a mortgage isn’t the accomplishment it used to be. There was a time in which a mortgage approval was a rite of passage. It meant you had arrived. Now? It means some institution is willing to take a few payments from you. MONEY PIT MARATHON

Don’t exhale upon closing on your new house, as though you just finished a marathon. It might feel like you did, but in reality, there should be a guy standing there in a funny hat telling you the race is actually 100 miles longer. When you own a home, you own its problems, too. The roof is your problem. The furnace is your problem. And the thousands of other structural components and functional contents are your problems, too.

For some ridiculous reason, my home has two faux chimneys. They are both leaking. Do you know what my call was like to the repair company? “Hi, I need my fake chimneys repaired.” Two pointless fixtures are costing me thousands of dollars. I’m frustrated, but if I didn’t have an emergency fund, I’d be in trouble, despite my ability to afford my mortgage payment. TAKE THE TEST

Being able to afford the monthly mortgage payment is not indicative of your ability to afford homeownership. Just because a billion-dollar financial institution lets you do this to yourself, it doesn’t mean you should. If someone asks me whether they can afford to be a homeowner, I ask two simple questions. uHow much of a down payment do you have? uHow much of an emergency fund will you have after the down payment? I can map your financial future from there. If you don’t have a down payment, which you saved on your own, without assistance or borrowing, how are you going to afford the furnishings, landscaping and planned obsolescence of household appliances? You aren’t. You will go into debt. Or, you can choose to not address important maintenance issues, which of course leads to bigger problems down the road, especially when you finally sell your home. There’s nothing quite like being told you need $10,000 in repairs to prepare your home for someone else to live in. Down payments can arrive on the scene in several different incarnations. I’ve seen folks borrow

from their 401(k). That move usually makes me physically ill. Some receive a loan/gift from family members to place the seemingly last piece in the puzzle. If you have to finagle your financial life around to summon a down payment, then you can’t afford homeownership. I 100% acknowledge my assertion would crash the economy. If people only bought items they could objectively afford, our economy would crash faster than me on a unicycle. It’s a gutwrenching feeling to know that if Americans made good decisions, our economy would be destroyed. Homeownership only solves financial problems of those who can afford it. When executed properly, homeownership will help you eliminate a major living expense, upon paying off the mortgage. Renting can’t do that. One of the primary arguments against renting is the rising cost of rent. That’s a valid point, but when my rental property’s air conditioner goes on the fritz, I’m the one that sweats, while my renter gets to pump his fist in a new especially cool environment.

Ask yourself two questions before taking the plunge: How much of a down payment do you have? How much of an emergency fund will you have after the down payment?

THE BOTTOM LINE

I want you to be a homeowner, when you can objectively afford to be one. I don’t want you to find yourself caught up in a societal tidal wave that blindly delivers you into financial hardship. You’ve seen the billboards along the highway that boldly announce, “You could own a home for what you pay in rent.” I often daydream that a windstorm destroys them in one fell swoop. But then I remember my home could be damaged by the same storm, and then I’d have to pay for the damage.

Kansas pitcher Krauth simply a winner In Big 12 play, when lefthander Ben Krauth is the starting pitcher for Kansas University, the Jayhawks win. When it’s somebody else, they lose. It’s almost that simple, although Saturday’s doubleheader sweep of Oklahoma was a welcome exception. Krauth, the team’s Friday night starter, came through again in a series opener, this one played on Saturday because of Friday Krauth night’s rainout. Sure enough, Kansas won, 7-2, and Krauth killed Oklahoma softly. “We’re 4-1 on Friday nights, and the one loss was 1-0 to West Virginia, and he pitched a great game,” Kansas coach Ritch Price said, counting the first game of Saturday’s doubleheader as a Friday night game. “You go 4-1 in your first five, normally you’d be in the top 25 and the NCAA tournament.” Usually, but Kansas didn’t have the pitching depth to withstand any injuries comfortably and lost three pitchers to injury, including its projected Saturday and Sunday starters. “We’re 0-7 on Saturday and Sunday,” Price said in the dugout between games, before improving to 1-7. “Obviously, it’s one of the toughest years I’ve ever been involved in because I really like this team. We play good defense. We swing the bats. We’re just really short Saturday and Sunday.” The only good fortune on the injury front for the KU pitching staff is that Krauth doesn’t have one. It’s a treat to watch him attack hitters, blending sinking fastballs with changeups that look the same out of the hand and come in 15 mph slower. He mixes in a slider and a developing 12-to-6 curveball here and there, but it’s his changeup that keeps the hitters off balance all afternoon. Krauth had more trouble than usual locating his fastball Saturday, so he relied even more heavily on his offspeed pitches, called from the dugout by pitching coach Ryan Graves. Krauth’s biggest out Saturday came in the sixth inning. Bases loaded. Two outs. Full count. Kansas leading, 4-2. Domenic DeRenzo swung and missed at an offspeed pitch, and Krauth bounded off the mound, let out a scream and punched the air. “I like throwing my changeup a lot,” Krauth said. “It’s a pitch I can trust. I get some swings and misses when I need them and get some groundballs.” Kansas has a lot of work left to make it to the Big 12 tournament, but Krauth’s

Jayhawks take two from Oklahoma By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

All season, despite dealing with more losses than anyone expected or would care to count, the Kansas University baseball team continued to preach that its offense was among the best in the Big 12 Conference. Saturday, the Jayhawks proved it with a 16-run explosion and doubleheader sweep of Oklahoma at Hoglund Ballpark. The Jayhawks (19-23-1 overall, 5-8 Big 12) dictated

the way both games were played and forced the Sooners (20-22-1, 6-11) to play catch-up all afternoon en route to the 7-2 and 9-8 victories. Ace Ben Krauth pitched a gem in the opener, lasting into the seventh inning and striking out seven Sooners to pick up his fourth victory. But that part was hardly a surprise. Kansas is now 4-1 in the opening games of its Big 12 series this season, with the lone loss coming in a 1-0 setback to West Virginia. As he was Saturday, in

a game that was originally scheduled for Friday night but pushed back because of rain, Krauth was masterful in all five of those games. The Jayhawks’ inability to follow up their strong Friday night showings on Saturday or Sunday is what put them at the bottom of the Big 12 standings heading into Saturday’s doubleheader, and that’s why the celebration looked more like a postseason clincher than a regularseason victory when senior Colby Wright crossed home in the bottom of the ninth of

Game Two with the walk-off winning run after a sacrifice fly by third baseman Tommy Mirabelli. “This is one of the most frustrating years I’ve ever had in coaching,” KU coach Ritch Price said after Saturday’s second win. “When you’re 4-1 on Friday night but 0-7 on Saturday and Sunday because you’ve got three guys injured and sitting in your dugout who should be pitching those games, that’s an unbelievably tough grind Please see BASEBALL, page 3C

KU looking to upgrade special teams By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

During his 17 months as the leader of the Kansas football program, David Beaty has talked often about the importance of what he calls the “hidden third” of the game. That, in Beaty terminology, refers to special teams, and it’s an area in which the Jayhawks struggled mightily during the 2015 season in just about every aspect. Headed up by first-year special-teams coordinator Gary Hyman, the 2015 Jayhawks finished dead last in the Big 12 Conference in four of the six major specialteams categories. Such a showing got Hyman reassigned within the program, and the wild man Please see KEEGAN, page 3C with good heart ultimately

left Kansas to take a specialteams job at Indiana State. In to replace him was veteran special-teams guru Joe DeForest, who has 16 years of experience in the Big 12 Conference and a reputation for being one of the best special-teams leaders in college football. Here’s what DeForest will have to improve: KU ranked 10th in punt return (2.0 yards per return), 10th in punting (34.6 net average), 10th in field-goal makes (6) and percentage (.545) and 10th in extra-point makes (21) and percentage (.913). The Jayhawks were eighth in kickoff return (20.3 yards per return) and second in kickoff coverage. But despite that standing, the Jayhawks still struggled in the

THE DALLAS COWBOYS TOOK FORMER BAYLOR FORWARD RICO GATHERS (2) with the last of four picks in the sixth round — and their final pick of the draft. The Cowboys took Gathers at No. 217 overall. The 6-foot-8, 275-pound Gathers projects as a tight end after deciding against pursuing a career in the NBA. Moritz Boehringer in the sixth round. Boehringer, who wowed teams with an impressive pro day, played in the German Football League last season. According to the NFL, Boehringer is the first player from Europe to go in the draft without playing in college. “It’s really a fun story,” Minnesota coach Mike Zimmer said. “That’s kind of what the draft is all about, making dreams come true.” Southern Mississippi safety Kalan Reed is the new Mr. Irrelevant, going to Tennessee with the last pick. Long before Reed and the Titans closed out the proceedings, the impressive showing for Ohio State continued on the draft’s third day. Linebacker Joshua Perry went to San Diego at No. 102, and quarterback Cardale Jones was drafted by Buffalo with the last pick of the fourth round for 12 in all. Jones helped Ohio State win the national championship in 2014 and Perry made 105 tackles during his senior year with the Buckeyes, who had 10 players selected in the first three rounds, a record for the modern era of the draft since 1967. After Jones went to the Bills, the next quarterback off the board was Stanford’s Kevin Hogan to Kansas City at No. 162. Baltimore drafted Navy star Keenan Reynolds in the sixth round, but he is expected to transition to wide receiver after rushing for a Division I-record 88 touchdowns. “I just think my best area is

Jacksonville continued its defensive focus when it selected Notre Dame tackle Sheldon Day at No. 103. Day had four sacks and two forced fumbles for the Irish this season. The Jaguars also selected three defensive players in the first three rounds, including Florida State cornerback Jalen Ramsey at No. 5 overall, and UCLA linebacker Myles Jack in the second. “Definitely shows that we’re definitely going to try to get after it and change everything about this organization and try to make us continue to propel forward,” Day said. Among the other noteworthy picks were a couple players with family ties to the NFL. Wisconsin fullback Derek Watt, the brother of Texans star defensive end J.J. Watt, was drafted by San Diego at No. 198. Florida running back Kelvin Taylor, the son of former Jacksonville standout Fred Taylor, was selected by San Francisco in the sixth round. Illinois guard Ted Karras, who has numerous family connections to the league, went to New England at No. 221, and Clemson safety Jayron Kearse, the nephew of former defensive end Jevon Kearse, was drafted by Minnesota in the seventh round. The Cowboys took Baylor basketball player Rico Gathers with one of the last picks in the sixth round. Gathers will try to make it in the NFL as a tight end.

Combine invites Ellis, Selden, Diallo By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Kansas University senior Perry Ellis, junior Wayne Selden Jr. and freshman Cheick Diallo have been invited to the 2016 NBA Combine, set for May 11-15 in Chicago. It’s believed all three will compete in drills and 5-on-5 games at the Combine, which is used both to measure and test prospects, plus watch them compete in drills and scrimmages. Junior Brannen Greene, who also has declared for the draft, did not net an invitation to the Combine.

“(I’m) disappointed for Brannen, but he’ll still have opportunities to get Ellis in camps and work out for teams,” KU coach Bill Self said Saturday. “(I’m) happy for those other guys. They deserve to be there. Now it’s up to them to go perform well there.” Greene has hired agent Sam Goldfeder of Excel Sports Management. Ellis has contracted with Mark Bartelstein of Prior-

ity Sports a n d Management and Selden with Neal Rosenshein of Summit Selden Sports Group. Until Diallo signs with an agent, he has until May 25 to pull his name out of the draft and return to college. Self has said he definitely does not expect Diallo, who is listed as a first-round pick by draftexpress.com, to return. Ron Baker of Wichita State was invited to the Combine, but Fred Van

Vleet was not, according to the Wichita Eagle. l

to go through. But one compliment I’ll give these guys is we’ve been competitive every day. It was just nice to see them get rewarded for once.” Saturday’s sweep locked up KU’s first Big 12 series victory and first weekend series victory of the season. “It was obviously good to finally get that out of the way,” said Wright, who finished the day 2-for-6 with five runs scored, including a three-run home run in Game 2. “It has huge implications for that last spot in the Big 12 tournament, and, confidencewise, I think it helped our pitchers more than anything. It shows them that our bats are going to be there all the time, so if you give up a single or a home run, it’s fine, just don’t set the table for that big inning and we’ll be fine. The formula is there.”

Vaughn to Nets?: Former KU guard Jacque Vaughn will join the Brooklyn Nets as top assistant to new head coach Kenny Atkinson, according to Yahoo Sports’ Adrian Wojnarowski. Vaughn, who went 43121 in three-plus seasons with the Orlando Magic, has worked this season as pro personnel director of the San Antonio Spurs. Atkinson is currently top assistant with the Atlanta Hawks.

Chiefs stock depth in draft

Keegan work has kept that hope alive. If Price had not answered a longtime friend’s phone call urging him to fly to California to check out one of his pitchers at Diablo Valley College, Kansas would have no shot at climbing out of last place. Price’s friend told him, “You’re not going to like the radar gun, but the kid can really pitch.” Price called a scout and was told, “the kid can flat-out pitch,” but the junior-college pitcher needed to go to a fouryear school to improve his velocity and breaking pitches. Price watched him pitch three innings of juco fall ball and offered him a scholarship. “He gave up a hit and a walk and picked both guys off first base,” Price said. “In my 37 years in the game, he has the best pickoff move I’ve ever seen. A year ago, I think he led the nation in pickoffs, and the first five games he pitched he picked somebody off. Now guys are standing one step off the bag.” Price could have tried to maximize KU’s

chances of winning Big 12 games by pitching his ace on Saturday or Sunday to avoid the other team’s ace, but he never considered doing so. “He doesn’t want to pitch on Saturday and Sunday,” Price said. “One of the great things about that young man is he wants the baseball on Friday night, and he wants to pitch against the best, and he’s going to go

down as one of the best guys I’ve had since I’ve been here.” Krauth didn’t project as a Big 12 pitcher coming out of high school. “I gained about 25 pounds after my first year in junior college, and Skip was the first one to come out and see me,” Krauth said of Price. “I did well in front of him, and he said ‘We’ll take you.’ I said, ‘OK.’

It was the best offer I probably was going to get, and I loved it when I came out here. The atmosphere Skip has created is unbelievable. It’s a lot of fun to play for a guy like him. I love playing in Kansas. It’s got a great fan base out here for college baseball. It’s in the Big 12. What else can you ask for?” A few more healthy pitchers of his caliber.

It certainly was in the second game on Saturday. After watching Oklahoma tie the game at 7 in the top of the seventh with a three-run home run from catcher Domenic DeRenzo, the Jayhawks bounced back in the bottom of the inning and reclaimed the lead when Wright scored on a throwing error that gave KU an 8-7 advantage. A half inning later, Oklahoma closer and clean-up hitter Sheldon Neuse tied the game again with a solo home run. That forced the Jayhawks’ offense to dig just a little deeper, and after reliever Jeremy Kravetz coerced the Sooners into a 1-2-3 ninth inning, the Jayhawks found a way to grind out one more run and the win. Wright started it off by getting hit by a pitch from Neuse, who has been known to reach 96 mph on the radar gun. Joven Afenir followed with a crafty walk, and first

baseman Ryan Pidhaichuk reached on a fielder’s choice, when Neuse elected to try to cut down the lead runner at third on a perfectly placed bunt by Pidhaichuk. Wright beat the throw by a toenail, and, two batters later, Mirabelli’s fly ball to left field ended the game. Although 10 Big 12 games remain in KU’s regular season — a home series with Texas Tech next weekend and road trips to K-State and Oklahoma State to close the year — Saturday’s result vaulted Kansas from ninth to sixth in the Big 12 standings, which are determined by winning percentage. And the talk in the clubhouse after the game was about finishing strong and picking up the sweep at 1 p.m. today. “It’s so hard to sweep in our league, and we have a chance to do something special,” Price said. “We can make up for some of the tough losses we had early in our season and

put ourselves back in position to get to Oklahoma City.” Added Wright: “I think we’ll definitely come back loose. We’ve won the series and that’s something we needed to do. With a confident offense and Sunday pitching, there should be some runs up there. If we throw strikes there’s no reason we can’t get a sweep and keep it rolling into the last three series and not even get the 8 seed but maybe get the 5, 6 or 7 seed.”

Kansas City, Mo. — Eric Murray grew up in Milwaukee and played college football at Minnesota, so one might assume that the physical cornerback would consider the Packers or Vikings his favorite NFL team. “I love the Chiefs,” he countered, before offering a reason many college kid can appreciate: “I play a lot of ‘Madden’ and that’s my favorite team to play with. It means a lot to go to the team I love.” The Chiefs concluded the NFL Draft on Saturday by stocking up on depth at a number of positions of need, including cornerback. They took Notre Dame’s KeiVarae Russell in the third round Friday night before grabbing Murray, whose inyour-face style fits Chiefs defensive coordinator Bob Sutton’s system. “I kind of kept walking around the (Minnesota) building asking, ‘How tough is this kid,’” Chiefs area scout Terry Delp said. “He’s that quiet guy, he’s a captain — he’d call people out. But he was known as the toughest guy on the team. Every teammate said that.” After trading away first- and second-round choices the first two days, general manager John Dorsey had seven selections in the remaining rounds — even after losing a third-round pick for tampering. Cincinnati offensive tackle Parker Ehinger, who projects as a guard in the NFL, was chosen before Murray with the first of back-to-back picks in the fourth round. Florida wide receiver Demarcus Robinson, a first-round talent with a checkered background, was taken near the end of the round. Kansas City went with Stanford’s Kevin Hogan, a developmental quarterback prospect, before gambling later in the fifth round on West Alabama wide receiver Tyreek Hill — the speedster booted from the Oklahoma State program

(special teams unit) and back up on another,” DeForest said this spring, asked about his philosophy for using front-line players on special teams. It’s a method he has used everywhere he has been, and DeForest said the idea of putting the most talented athletes on the field for special teams not only helps teams compete but also helps the entire roster

take ownership in every aspect of the program. “We’re gonna try to hold true to that,” he said, noting that he won’t be careless about it. “Obviously, there’s some attrition that goes on throughout the year. You gotta measure, what’s the dropoff on offense and defense if that (firststring) kid goes down on special teams? And how many snaps is that kid taking a game on offense

and defense, and then you add in how many can he effectively run on special teams. “You definitely have to measure how much a kid can handle both in a game and throughout a season.” That same inquiry could have been thrown out DeForest’s way. After being hired by Beaty as one of five new assistants brought in during an offseason of coaching turnover, KU’s new spe-

cial teams leader had just a few days to unpack his bags before the start of spring football in early March. “I’ve gotta get to know the roster,” he said midway through spring practices. “I’ve only been here a couple weeks and I’m trying to learn three names a day and faces and numbers and all that. So we’re in an evaluation phase for sure.”

after pleading guilty to punching and strangling his girlfriend. Georgia Tech cornerback D.J. White and Virginia Tech linebacker Dadi Lhomme Nicolas went during the sixth round. The Chiefs traded their first-round pick Thursday night, then traded one of their two secondround picks Friday night to continue stockpiling selections. They still managed to snag hulking Mississippi State defensive tackle Chris Jones with their other secondround choice and Russell in the third. “We’ve identified some players that are good fits for us, and we’re fortunate to get those high fourth-round picks,” Dorsey said. “You can begin to add some of that depth we talk about.” Ehinger was a teammate of current Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce early in his career with the Bearcats, and received a congratulatory text message and Twitter shout-out shortly after he was picked. The 6-foot-6, 308-pound Ehinger played left tackle as a senior, but also played right guard and right tackle. He was a captain and a four-year starter whose strength is in pass protection. “I can pick up any system very quickly. I ran a couple of different offenses throughout my college career,” Ehinger said. “Whatever they need me to do, I’ll play anywhere.” Murray became the fourth cornerback chosen by the Chiefs in two drafts, joining defensive rookie of the year Marcus Peters and Steven Nelson last year. He has decent size, showed some durability in starting 39 straight games with the Gophers, and prides himself on playing with an edge. Kansas City was looking for help in the defensive backfield after losing cornerback Sean Smith and safety Tyvon Branch in free agency and watching safety Husain Abdullah retire early.

Despite his fasterthan-ideal initiation, DeForest said his years of experience and the attitude of his new team made the transition easier. “They’re buying in,” he said. “No question. They have the effort and the skill to do it, we just gotta point ’em in the right direction of what we’re trying to do and hopefully they’ll be successful.”

MAJOR-LEAGUE ROUNDUP

Abreu’s single keys White Sox win The Associated Press

American League White Sox 8, Orioles 7 Baltimore — Jose Abreu hit a tie-breaking RBI single in the ninth inning off reliever Vance Worley, leading Chicago to a victory over Baltimore on Saturday night. After Todd Frazier hit a two-run homer off Darren O’Day in the eighth to give Chicago a 7-5 lead, Chris Davis tied the game in the bottom half with a two-run double off Zach Duke. Those runs were charged to Matt Albers, ending his streak of 30 consecutive scoreless appearances. Adam Eaton and Carlos Sanchez reached base with two outs in the ninth against Zach Britton (1-1). Worley entered and allowed the single to Abreu. Nate Jones (2-0) got the final four outs.

SCOREBOARD Miley keeps K.C. reeling Seattle (ap) — Wade Miley scattered five hits for his first career shutout, and Kyle Seager hit a three-run homer to cap a four-run first inning off an ineffective Yordano Venture and pace the Seattle Mariners to a 6-0 victory over Kansas City on Saturday night, the Royals’ fifth consecutive loss on their current road trip. Miley (2-2) struck out four and walked none for his second complete game in 139 starts. His only other complete game was last September with Boston in a 9-2 victory over Philadelphia, when he allowed two runs and five hits. Seth Smith, whose homer accounted for the Mariners’ only hit in a 1-0 victory Friday night, homered in the first inning, a one-out solo shot, his fourth. The Mariners capital-

ized on two walks in the first off Ventura (2-1), who allowed five runs, three hits with six walks in four-plus innings. With two outs in the first, Ventura walked Nelson Cruz and Adam Lind, and Seager followed with his fifth homer to make it 4-0. Miley benefited from a successful challenge in the third. Paulo Orlando was safe at second when shortstop Ketel Marte bobbled Alcides Escobar’s one-out infield chopper while trying for the force out. The call was overturned after review, and Mike Moustakas followed with a ground-rule double to left-center, holding Escobar at third. Miley escaped by retiring Lorenzo Cain on a pop out to short. Seattle took a page out of the Royals’ offensive play book and manufac-

tured a run in the fourth. Seager walked to open the inning, Chris Iannetta singled and both runners advanced on Marte’s sacrifice bunt. Second baseman Omar Infante then attempted a difficult throw home on Leonys Martin’s chopper, but Seager slid in ahead of the tag. The Mariners made it 6-0 in the sixth when Dillon Gee hit Cruz with a pitch with the bases loaded. Cruz was also hit by a pitch in the second inning and walked twice.

Up next Royals: RHP Ian Kennedy (2-2, 2.77 ERA) allowed five runs and seven hits in a 6-1 loss to the Angels in his last start to open the current winless road trip. Mariners: Seattle wraps up a six-game homestand before heading out for seven games on the road.

KANSAS UNIVERSITY LONG JUMPER BARDEN ADAMS KICKS UP A WAVE OF SAND as he lands in the pit after an attempt during the Rock Chalk Classic on Saturday at Rock Chalk Park.

KU softball splits with UT Austin, Texas — Kansas University softball ended its four-game losing streak with a vengeance. The skid hit four with a 3-1 loss earlier Saturday, but the Jayhawks bounced back for a 9-1, run-ruleshortened victory over Texas in the nightcap at McCombs Field. The Jayhawks hit three home runs in the first three innings and collected a season-high 14 hits for the game. Chaley Brickey homered to lead off the nightcap, her 49th career home run. She needs six more to become Kansas’ all-time home-run leader. Brickey also hit two doubles and was 3-for3, with two runs and an RBI. With 54 doubles, she needs five more to become the school’s all-time leader in that category. Harli Ridling and Jessie Roane also homered for the Jayhawks (28-17 overall, 5-6 Big 12). Alexis Reid (4-6) picked up the win after allowing just the one run off seven hits over the full five innings. She walked one and struck out one. Andie Formby (16-7) took the loss in Game One. Texas improved to 3214, 6-7. The rubber game in the series will be at 11 a.m. today.

Stillwater, Okla. — Kansas University’s run in the Big 12 Women’s Tennis Championship ended with a 4-0 loss to top-seeded Oklahoma State in the semifinals on Saturday at Greenwood Tennis Center. Short-handed KU, down a player due to illness, forfeited at No. 6 singles, then lost at Nos. 3 and 4. A loss at No. 2 doubles, coupled with another forfeit at No. 3, cost Kansas another point and the match. Kansas had lost to No. 14-ranked Oklahoma State on Sunday. We definitely got OSU’s best shot,” KU coach Todd Chapman said. “Between the way we played last Sunday and yesterday, I think they knew they would have to play well, Kansas 000 100 0 — 1 3 0 and they did.

KU thus keeps the Kansas Cup in consecutive seasons for the first time since 2003-04. “This win is a good momentum builder and just really good for confidence,” Kansas coach Rob Catloth said. “We met a challenge that we knew we could overcome, and we rose to the level we had been talking about all week — getting to that next level.” The all-time Sunflower Showdown series is now even, 10-10. Kansas recognized eight seniors — Angie Flores-Rodriguez, Emma O’Neill, Jackie Adamle, Maggie Duncan, Casey Kelly, Briana Pina, Tessa Scott and Mary Slattery — during the annual Senior Day ceremony. “These kids have been working hard,” Catloth said. “We have had the Sunflower Showdown and Big 12s marked down on our calendar where we wanted to perform well and have been gearing to this since August. It was important to this group after winning the trophy last year to keep it.” Next up is the Big 12 Championship, May 14-15 in Oak Ridge, Tenn.

Spurs roll in Game 1 San Antonio (ap) — LaMarcus Aldridge had 38 points, and the San Antonio Spurs dismantled the Oklahoma City Thunder 124-92 on Saturday night, never trailing in Game 1 of the second-round series. Kawhi Leonard added 25 points, five rebounds and five assists in 22 minutes for San Antonio. The Spurs led by as many as 43 points and sat their starters in the fourth quarter to rest them for Game 2 on Monday night. Aldridge broke out for his finest performance of the season after Memphis held him to 14.5 points in the first round, nearly seven points below his regular-season numbers. Aldridge was 18-for-23 from the field, including his first three-pointer of the season and banking in a left-handed scoop shot as he was falling in the lane. Leonard and Aldridge combined for 45 points in the first half, outscoring Oklahoma City as a team by four. Unfortunately for the Thunder, the rest of the Spurs were just as impressive early. San Antonio matched a postseason franchise record for points in a quarter with 43 in the opening period. Serge Ibaka led Oklahoma City with 19 points, but was limited to two rebounds. Kevin Durant had 16 points, and Russell Westbrook added 14, but they were harassed into 11-for34 shooting.

NEVER BE A BYSTANDER

‘Welcome to Arroyo’s’ invites audience to listen, observe, respond By Joanna Hlavacek @HlavacekJoanna

In “Welcome to Arroyo’s,” KU Theatre’s current production, a pair of DJs (played by Bronwen Capshaw and Nathan Kruckenberg) serve as the ubiquitous Greek chorus. While the student actors — who learned the ropes by shadowing a real-life DJ during club gigs — literally spin records onstage, they’re also providing a metaphorical “remixing” of the action as it unfolds. Or as Nicole Hodges Persley, the show’s director, puts it, “They’re spinning the story as they experienced it back to us,” in a way that at times shatters the fourth wall and pulls the audience into Arroyo’s, the bar and lounge where Trip and Nelson, the aforementioned DJs, are trying — without much success — to launch their music careers.

“This is part of a call-andresponse tradition that’s really coming out of AfricanAmerican cultural deposits within hip-hop,” says Hodges Persley, an associate professor of theater at KU. “The idea is that it’s a way to have a conversation with the audience that is asking, ‘What do you think?’ or ‘Do you know this?’ or ‘What’s happening here?’ It’s one of the things I love most about hip-hop theater — it’s creating theater that is really asking audiences to get engaged with the things that are facing young people today and asking them to notice the things that are happening instead of being bystanders to it.” It’s also a genre that is relatively young and has only recently started cropping up in academic texts, says Hodges Persley, who counts herself as one of the movement’s earliest scholars and

art form that is itself often misunderstood. “Welcome to Arroyo’s,” This is part of a call-andwhich runs through Thursresponse tradition that’s day at KU’s William Inge Memorial Theatre, is a really coming out of thoroughly modern tale African-American cultural that deals in some pretty timeless themes — among deposits within hip-hop.” them identity, loss and love. Penned by one-time Pulit— Nicole Hodges Persley, KU zer Prize finalist Kristoffer associate professor of theater Diaz, the urban coming-ofage tale follows a pair of siblings, Alejandro (Juan Gonartists. That’s partly why zales) and Molly (Alejandra Hodges Persley found herself Villasante), in the aftermath drawn to “Arroyo’s,” which, of their mother’s death. like its peers in hip-hop The action takes place theater, isn’t likely covered in 2004, in a Puerto Rican in her students’ textbooks or neighborhood in New York courses.

Alejandro is having trousome of the “unsung heroes ble attracting customers to and heroines” of the genre, his new lounge (the building Hodges Persley says, and was once his mom’s bodega) how they helped establish an and Molly, a budding graffiti

artist, can’t stop tagging the local precinct. Tensions arise when Lelly (Cassidy Ragland), a college student who left the neighborhood years ago to pursue an education, returns with a theory that the Arroyos’ mother may have been Reina Rey, a famous hip-hop pioneer still shrouded in mystery. Lelly theorizes that the siblings’ mom disappeared from the scene after becoming pregnant, which Alejandro, in his grief, isn’t quick to accept. “She could have been the equivalent to some of the men who get the attention as being at the forefront of hiphop, but women have always been at the forefront of hiphop, and part of building it — as graffiti artists, as dancers, as MCs, in every aspect of hip-hop culture,” Please see ARROYO, page 3D

Arroyo CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1D

Hodges Persley says. “I think Diaz is drawing our attention to that, but also at the same time coupling that with the fact that it could have been a Latina woman, I think, is an important message.” In “Welcome to Arroyo’s,” questions about gender — how does a woman, especially one with children to support, Hodges Persley asks, “make herself legible in an art form that seems to showcase the cultural production of men?” — are at the forefront, running alongside and intersecting those about race. Hip-hop emerged out of AfricanPerformances American, for “Welcome to African diaArroyo’s” are sporic and scheduled for 2:30 Afro-Latino p.m. today and communi7:30 p.m. May 3-5. ties in the Visit kutheatre. Bronx more com or call 864than 40 3982 for tickets years ago, and more info. yet today — even as the art form attracts an increasingly multiracial swath of practitioners and consumers — many fail to understand the role of Latinos in its inception, Hodges Persley says. “Welcome to Arroyo’s” explores that often-untold history. The DJs struggling to find an audience must ask themselves what it means to be Jewish-American or Italian-American in an industry that is predominantly produced by a culture they were not born into. Lelly, who is dismissed as a “white girl” despite her Puerto Rican heritage, feels uncomfortable and alienated from her old neighborhood, where her college degree, speech and manners are racialized as “white.” “This is something Lelly’s battling with,” says Hodges Persley about the very universal theme of where — and to whom — we belong. “What is her ethnic or racial identity? And does she have the right to tell a story?” “She is a Puerto Rican woman. She may not be Puerto Rican in the way that they identify what that means to them and their community, but she has to figure out what it means to her.”

expanded to west Lawrence and the Kansas City area. J. Wilson’s, Nancy says, is a nod to the longtime bar’s first owner, John T. Wilson. Since getting their start at Johnny’s Tavern, the Renfros’ tastes have evolved. Mariscos started out in 2001 specializing in Southwestern seafood dishes (the name itself means “seafood” in Spanish), which explains the Southwestern design motifs scattered around the restaurant and the mild confusion surrounding its menu, says Nancy, who classifies Mariscos as leaning more toward “New American” cuisine these days. The aesthetics will change, but the menu, by and large, won’t. “We’re probably go-

the rebranding on her backburner since taking over operations at Mariscos in 2010. “We wanted to change the name to something that is a meaningful name for us now.” For those not in the know, the Renfros also own Johnny’s Tavern. Rick bought the original spot at 401 N. Second St. in 1978, and the couple have seen Johnny’s

ing to keep the all-time favorites that people love and tweak them a bit to make them more up-todate and contemporary,” says Nancy, who plans to keep Mariscos steak and seafood dishes on the streamlined menu while rotating in more locally sourced and seasonal features. Nancy envisions a sort of understated “New York supper club” vibe with dark woods, upgraded flooring and softer lighting (to replace Mariscos’ “spotlight”style bulbs), and more seating to allow for bigger gatherings. One of the major changes is moving the entrance to the west side of the building, so patrons will face a renovated bar area (which will be rebranded Wilson’s Bar, complete with banquette seating and “Bar Plates”) as they walk in. Mariscos (or J. Wilson’s, we should say) will remain open throughout renovations, which should be complete sometime this summer. Nancy isn’t offering any specifics yet, but says the new menu should debut around the same time. In the meantime, I’ll try to stay in the loop and keep up with any developments that pop up. “It’s really exciting and I love all the things that are going on in that neck of the woods, with Rock Chalk Park and the new apartments and home construction,” Nancy says. “I think we’ll be a good, solid base for people who want to eat in their locally owned restaurant … that’s who we’re going to be when we open up.” — This is an excerpt from Joanna Hlavacek’s Out & About column, which appears on LJWorld.com.

Al-Anon can’t fix daughter’s drinking problem Dear Annie: My unmarried 30-year-old daughter has a drinking and behavioral problem that has escalated over the past year. ‘’Terrie’’ gets drunk at family gatherings, insults people and starts arguments that often end with her throwing things and shoving people. A lot of her anger seems to be directed at me. We have encouraged Terrie to get alcohol counseling or attend AA. She tried it once and quit. I believe she is bipolar, but mental health counselors will not treat her until she quits drinking. After her last outburst, I sent her a text message and said we could no longer have a relationship unless she gets help. Shortly after, she left town and moved to Florida with a friend who also drinks. Should I keep the

I tried Al-Anon, but the members only offer support and friendship to each other, which is nice, but it doesn’t change my daughter. She is an intelligent, beautiful woman who has thrown her life away and it breaks my heart. — Concerned Mom

Anon is not intended to change the alcoholic’s behavior, only your response to it. Choosing not to stay in touch would be for your mental health, not hers. No one can ‘’fix’’ Terrie until she admits she has a problem, and she doesn’t seem ready. Many who are bipolar self-medicate with alcohol and drugs, and there are treatment programs that address both disorders. If Terrie wants help, she should contact a university medical center department of psychiatry for a referral.

I have many friends who live far from their children and grandchildren and they have solved this problem with FaceTime or Skype. Over the phone or computer, they read books to the kids, have lunch ‘’together’’ and simply enjoy regular conversations. Please remember this as an option. You would be surprised how many of the older generation manage to make this high-tech connection. — M.

New thriller is gorgeous but dumb Can a series be beautifully produced, gorgeously shot, elegantly set directed, finely cast and still be kind of dumb? The one-word answer is yes. The two-word response is “Penny Dreadful” (9 p.m., Showtime, TV-MA). Set in the 19th century, this lurid, violent, ghoulish psychological thriller dishes up a gumbo of horror elements, from vampires and werewolves to exorcisms. Just count the bugs and spiders in the credit sequence a l o n e . Within 10 minutes of the beginning of the third season premiere, there’s a bloody mass murder that unfolds slowly and methodically, one point blank headshot and exit wound at a time. It’s not clear what this adds to the story; it has all of the emotional resonance of a video game rampage. Eva Green can express more with her eyes in one scene than most mere mortals. Her striking presence is a strong reason to sit still for “Dreadful,” but not strong enough. I’m not well versed enough in pulp literary tastes to do justice to this sick, sanguineous story, so I’m tempted to coin my own sub-genre. Has “sophomoric Gothic” been taken? O Luke Bryan, Florida Georgia Line, Thomas Rhett and other acts perform live at the American Country Countdown Awards (7 p.m., Fox). This celebration of country music old and new is modeled on the long-running internationally syndicated radio show “American Country Countdown With Kix Brooks.” Brooks, of Brooks and Dunn, has been the show’s host since 2006; it’s been a staple of country radio since 1973, when it was hosted by Dan Bowman. On another musical note, fans choose their favorites for the 2016 Radio Disney Music Awards (6 p.m. Sunday, Disney).

Just like the heroine of “Alanna: The First Adventure” by Tamora Pierce, Brienne defies social conventions by following her true passion in life to become an honorable knight. She would relate to Alanna’s journey of self-discovery, her brash, stubborn personality, and her ability to remain strong in the face of adversity.

Tyrion Lannister Tyrion always seems to find himself at the center of one tragedy or another, a theme that emerges within “Memories of My Melancholy Wh___” by Gabriel García Márquez. Tyrion would not only relate to the protagonist’s forlorn and doomed romance, but also appreciate the nuanced introspection and evocative nature of Márquez’s writing.

’ll be the first to admit that I have a major obsession with “Game of Thrones.” It means that when April comes around, I can’t stop speculating on what will happen in the new season, and I begin my annual reread of George R.

While I’m in a “Game of Thrones”-induced frenzy, I often find myself pondering the following scenario: If characters from the show were to waltz into the Lawrence Public Library today, what books would I suggest they read? Although the following list is not exhaustive (if it were, we’d be here until George R. R.

Sansa Stark Based on the life of Elizabeth Woodville, “The White Queen” by Philippa Gregory is set during the War of The Roses. It follows a widowed Elizabeth Woodville who falls in love with King Edward IV, gets married, and becomes a member of the royal family. Similar to Elizabeth, Sansa is also thrust into a world she does not understand at a young age. Both of these women show incredible growth as they develop into ambitious rulers who must rely on their wits to survive and fend off foes who seek to destroy them. Daenerys Targar’yen It is clear that Daenerys’ dragons have a bit of an attitude problem since they’re going through their rebellious teenage years. Daenerys may find some useful tips in “How To Train Your Dragon,” by Cressida Cowell, which chronicles the life of dragon whisperer and Viking extraordinaire Hiccup Horrendous Haddock III as he masters the art of dragon obedience training, all while discovering what makes him a hero. — Fisher Adwell is an Information Services Assistant at Lawrence Public Library.

Inside was a 20page letter, written in the same hand, requesting information on the alleged paranormal activity at the Eldridge Hotel featured on an episode of “My Ghost Story” on A&E’s Biography Channel. The writer specifically asked about the spirit of Colonel Shalor Eldridge. She wrote, “I would like to know why is Colonel Eldridge’s ghost and spirit still remaining and lingering and hanging around the hotel and haunting the hotel?

Or I could swing over to Topeka to visit the Kansan Hotel where a current tenant believes she has a ghost roommate (pg. 125)!

BRIEFLY Fairstein plans new kids series New York (ap) — The latest sleuth for best-selling crime writer Linda Fairstein is relatively new to the mystery game. Fairstein’s next series will be for readers ages 8-12, with a protagonist who fits the demographic: 12-year-old Devlin Quick. Dial Books for Young Readers told The Associated Press on Wednesday that the first book in the series, “Devlin Quick: Into the Lion’s Den,” will come out Nov. 1. The books will feature Devlin and her best friend Booker as they take on cases in New York City, including a caper at the New York Public Library. Fairstein is best known for her Alex Cooper crime series. In a statement issued through Dial, she said the new books are inspired in part by her childhood reading of the Nancy Drew mysteries.
