‘WE ALWAYS NEED IMPROVEMENT’ n At 4 years old, Lucy Crabtree lost most of her hearing for an unknown reason. A doctor told her parents she’d never go past the third grade. When she was 7, the ADA was signed into law, ensuring she’d have “reasonable accommodations” like sign language interpreters for the rest of her schooling. At 23, she graduated from MidAmerica Nazarene University. Though she can’t remember a time without the ADA, Crabtree said she still recognizes the assistance the law has provided throughout her life. As a child, she went to deaf and hard-of-hearing classes to improve communication and learn life skills. In college,
she requested note-takers in classes so as not to miss anything a professor was saying as she lipread her lessons. “It’s hard to imagine not being able to go to college and say, ‘This is what I need,’” Crabtree said. Now on the job as a communications specialist for Kansas University, her employers provide what she needs to do her job effectively, despite her hearing impairment. At her request, the university gave her a caption telephone, which hooks up to an operator who types out what the person on the other line is saying. Please see CRABTREE, page 2A

Ray Petty is working with the city to make sports more accessible.
‘I’VE ALWAYS BEEN A FRUSTRATED ATHLETE’ n Though childhood polio restricted his mobility, Ray Petty is quite the athlete. On the average day, he walks with a leg brace — but by night, you can find him shooting baskets or hitting home runs on accessible gym floors and baseball diamonds. “I was 40 when I first started playing sports,” Petty said. “I played first on a softball team, and I was the guy running gimpy to first base.” Happy to play, but discouraged that he wasn’t as fast as his able-bodied teammates, Petty said he asked to have a player run the bases for him. “I have to hit a double to get to first base,” Petty said. “I’ve always been a frustrated athlete.” But now, Petty is working to make sure others with mobility issues no longer feel frustrated as he did. He’s working with Annette Deghand, Lawrence Parks and Recreation director of special populations, to put together “a very forward-looking program on fitness and disability,” including programming for wheelchair sports. Without accessible sports, “kids (in wheelchairs) end up sitting on the sidelines,” Petty said. “They lose the opportunity to develop upperbody strength and a teamwork mentality.” When he’s not in on a game, Petty
RAY PETTY, 65
works as the Kansas coordinator for the ADA’s Disability and Business Technical Assistance Center for the Great Plains. In his work, he helps businesses, organizations and schools meet ADA accessibility standards, but he said the importance of accessibility extends beyond the confines of classrooms and businesses. “Programming is important. Kids that don’t get into physical fitness stuff get obese, or diabetes,” Petty said. “That’s all stuff that can be avoided with extracurriculars.” Plus, with accessibility and disability programming, being “disabled” starts to lose its stigma as the subgroup becomes more visible, Petty said. For example, Petty said the University of Missouri has a competitive wheelchair basketball team in which players can letter and even work to make it to the national competition level. “Imagine what it’s like to have 18- to 20-year-olds in wheelchairs lettering. It opens up a whole new realm of accessibility,” Petty said. “It’s wrong we don’t have a wheelchair team at KU when Mizzou has nothing to do with basketball and has one.” If you are interested in enrolling a child or yourself in wheelchair sports, Petty encourages you to contact him at raypetty@aol.com or Deghand at (785) 832-7920 or adeghand@ci.lawrence.ks.us.

Crabtree CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A
Though Crabtree said the “ADA has done wonders,” there is still room for improvement. Those “reasonable accommodations” aren’t specifically defined by law, so Crabtree said it can at times be challenging to get treated like you need to be treated. “They use the word ‘reasonable,’ but the corporation or school are the ones who decide what is ‘reasonable,’” Crabtree said. “It’s tricky to navigate. I don’t want to demand, but it gets weary to have to advocate for yourself.” For example: Want to see the latest blockbuster? Well, if you’re hearing impaired, that’s going to be a bit difficult. Crabtree said that most theaters have “assisted listening devices,” which essentially connect to a person’s hearing aids to amplify the sound. But for Crabtree and many others who are hard of hearing, it’s not so much that she can’t hear sounds; it’s that she doesn’t have what she calls “speech discrimination” to distinguish exactly what’s
being said. “Most of us need captioning (on movies), but hearing customers complain,” Crabtree said. “Sometimes theaters would provide ‘open captioning’ movies but would show them at weird times. It was considered a ‘reasonable accommodation,’ but it was only reasonable on paper, not in practice.” Crabtree said that now she asks movie theaters for “individual captioning devices,” which stick in your cup holder and flash the words on a personal screen, but as with a lot of technology, there are glitches. Crabtree said she finds herself climbing over seated patrons in the theaters several times over to ask employees to fix the tools. Though she comes across the occasional inequality and has friends who have had employment problems, she said that overall the ADA has made her life much easier to navigate. Still, she thinks that as a society we have much more to learn. “I’m grateful there’s not as much to fight for, but we always need improvement,” Crabtree said. “I don’t know if the law needs to be changed, but people need to be educated (on disabilities).”

Great Kaw Adventure event aims to increase awareness of river By Conrad Swanson Twitter: @Conrad_Swanson

less, well, dirty. In late September, Friends of the Kaw, for which Buehler acts as riverkeeper, and the cities of De Soto and Eudora are partnering for a canoe, bicycle and foot race. The event, aptly called the Great Kaw Adventure, is meant to teach participants about the Please see KAW, page 4A

Lawrence school board mulls longer recesses By Rochelle Valverde Twitter: @RochelleVerde
Students rush out double doors toward playground equipment or to start games on the blacktop, but the whistle follows close behind. The longest recess break for Lawrence students is 15 minutes. Members of the district’s school board would like to see that time increase. “Recess time is important for kids,” said Vanessa Sanburn, president of the school board. “In addition to being
fun, providing lots of opportunities for physical activity can help kids be more receptive learners as well.” And though Sanburn said she thinks increasing recess time would benefit a lot of the instructional goals the board has, to do so isn’t as simple as just adding five minutes. Currently, the Kansas State Department of Education policy only allows for two 15-minute recesses for elementary schools, one mid-morning and one mid-afternoon, to count toward
the required amount of instructional time, Sanburn explained. As a result, increasing recess time for Lawrence students would likely mean adding time to the school day, she said. “So you have to think about setting the calendar and paying staff more,” Sanburn said. “Our calendar essentially matches the instructional time (requirements), so we don’t have a lot of wiggle room.” One of the board’s proposed goals for the school year is to enhance student wellness,

an aspect of which is to investigate increases in recess and time for physical movement. There is no district policy outlining recess, said Denise Johnson, the district’s curriculum coordinator for health and wellness. Total time allotted for recess varies by school, but all elementary students get at least 15 minutes of recess, Johnson said. That time is an important component of the school day, and Johnson said she would love to

see more. “To get kids moving and be creative,” she said, “to try to create that balance between academics and physical movement.” Johnson said the general practice in the district is that students in kindergarten through third grades get two 15-minute recesses per day, and fourth- and fifthgrade students get one. Students in middle school don’t get recess but typically have a break before or after lunch. In addition, Johnson said, it is stressed that teachers shouldn’t take recess away from students, but there is no specific policy prohibiting it. The Lawrence district isn’t an outlier in the regard. According to a recent survey, 63 percent of Kansas elementary students have 20 minutes or less for recess, and only 41 percent of schools have policies prohibiting recess from being withheld as a punishment. The Kansas State Department of Education collaborated on the report with the Kansas Association for Health, Physical Education, Recreation and Dance, and the findings were reported to the Kansas State Board of Education in July. Recess time has been a national topic of concern as a growing body of research highlights its importance to multiple aspects of childhood development. The American Academy of Pediatrics reports that recess is a crucial part of a child’s cognitive, emotional, physical and social development.

Longwell said one of the major benefits for both parties involves water management enhancements, which stands to aid the development and the city.

LAWRENCE • STATE
The AAP provides several recommendations to schools and policymakers regarding recess, including: recess should not be withheld as punishment or for instructional time; breaks from classroom work are needed for both younger children and adolescents; and recess should be scheduled at regular intervals throughout the day. Although it does not suggest a specific recess schedule, it notes that attention spans begin to wane after 40 to 50 minutes of intense instruction. Johnson has witnessed many of those aspects firsthand. Johnson, who previous to her role as wellness coordinator taught fifth grade in the district, said kids need a break to refocus, and that can include activities like jumping jacks or short, active games to break up or transition between lessons. “You can have on your schedule that your recess is from 10 to 10:15, but that may not necessarily be the time where kids need the biggest break,” Johnson said, noting that incorporating such activities can reengage students. As part of the school board’s goal to enhance student wellness, the board will investigate ways to increase both physical movement and exercise, as opposed to strictly focusing on recess, explained Lawrence schools Superintendent Rick Doll. First, the board will get a baseline amount of how much time kids have for physical movement throughout the day, Doll said. Once the baseline is known, the board will consider research on the
impact of physical activity on learning and make recommendations for possible changes, he said. “It could be a variety of things,” Doll said, noting that it’s not just at the elementary level but middle school as well. “It could be we take more stretch breaks during class time, or it could mean more recess time.” In the meantime, the district is already implementing some practices to encourage more movement in the classroom, Johnson said. As part of professional development over the summer, physical education teachers in kindergarten through eighth grades did a training program called “Let’s Move! Active Schools,” which taught activities or games that can be done in just a few minutes to get students physically active, Johnson explained. “Recess has that elementary feel, but physical movement needs to happen in all of our buildings,” Johnson said, adding that the training encouraged PE teachers to share the activities with classroom teachers. At its meetings in September, the school board will further discuss specific ways to work toward the goal of enhancing student wellness, as well as its five other goals. The next school board meeting will be at 7 p.m. Monday, Sept. 14 at the district’s Educational Support and Distribution Center, 110 McDonald Drive.
Kaw, Szrot said. “We’d like to see this race become something that’s regionally recognized if not nationally recognized,” she said. “And I think that translates into more help for the river.” For the race’s first year, 15 two-person teams will dash from Eudora’s CPA Park to Pella Park, then head 11 miles down river to De Soto, facing mystery challenges along the way, Szrot said. After a bit more running and a few more challenges, the teams will hop on their bicycles and head back to the finish line in Eudora. Canoes, kayaks and life jackets will all be provided by Friends of the Kaw, Buehler said — along with educational opportunities along the way. “We hope to teach more about watershed protection and how to

It really is a great educational opportunity.” Because this will be the Great Kaw Adventure’s debut, Szrot said organizers invited area athletes, politicians, public safety officials and new residents to participate. With a healthy mix of participants, Szrot said, organizers hope team members will help them to work out the kinks in the system and ensure the event will be welcoming to everybody in the future. “This year it’s an invitational because we wanted to have a trial run before we opened it up,” she said.
both the development and the city. An estimated $1 million has been earmarked for the planned wetlands park as part of the city’s 10-year capital improvement plan. Officials say each part of the park project will need to be approved by the City Council and contracted out. “To have a wetland inside an urban-suburban area is very rare,” said City Council member Bryan Frye. “This property is home to a diverse collection of plant life and wildlife. Wetlands are disappearing at an alarming rate. We have an opportunity here to retain some.” For years, activists in Lawrence have opposed the destruction of local wetlands in favor of the South Lawrence Trafficway. Nearly 60 acres of wetlands were needed for the construction, which is slated to be complete in 2016.
As a mitigation effort for lost wetland area, $1.5 million in funds from the Kansas Department of Transportation has been used to build the Baker University Wetlands Discovery Center for the public to learn more about the environment. In addition, the state agreed to restore 410 acres of wetlands, increasing the Baker Wetlands to a total size of 927 acres.

LAWRENCE CITY COMMISSION Agenda highlights • 5:45 p.m. Tuesday • City Hall, Sixth and Massachusetts streets • WOW! Channel 25
Possible fire code changes in the works BOTTOM LINE City commissioners will consider tightening fire codes for buildings that house animals.
BACKGROUND The proposed changes are in response to concerns raised in May after a fire at Pet World, 711 W. 23rd St., resulted in the deaths of many animals. The proposed changes would require all animal housing facilities to be equipped with smoke detectors integrated into fire alarms. Larger facilities with more than 3,000 square feet would also be required to have automatic sprinkler systems. Pet World and the Lawrence Humane Society are urging the city to adopt even stricter standards than that.

Olathe — A white supremacist charged with killing three people at Jewish sites in Overland Park spent more than two hours Friday telling jurors how he planned the attacks and is sorry he didn’t kill more people. Frazier Glenn Miller Jr., who is acting as his own attorney, called himself to the witness stand and spoke of his military history and of how he started a group in North Carolina called the White Patriot Party. Miller also told jurors the prosecutor had a “slam dunk” and he knew they would put him on death row. If convicted, Miller could be sentenced to death. All three exhibits Miller tried to introduce — a video of him in military uniform leading the White Patriot Party and two news articles — Friday morning were disallowed. Judge Thomas Kelly Ryan told him any similar materials likely would be as well. After a nearly threehour lunch break, Miller returned to the stand and told jurors he wanted to tell them more about why he wanted to kill Jews, but the court wouldn’t let him.

Instead, he talked about an emphysema attack he had 10 days before the April 13, 2014, killings and his desire to “take out” Jewish people before he died. He said he didn’t initially know if he would have the courage to carry out the attacks, but afterward felt an exhilaration that dwarfed even the feeling of jumping out of airplanes when he was in the Army. “I’ve been proud of myself for 15 months,” he said. The 74-year-old Aurora, Mo., man is charged with killing William Corporon, 69, and Corporon’s 14-year-old grandson, Reat Griffin Underwood, at the Jewish Community Center, and Terri LaManno, 53, at the nearby Village Shalom retirement center. He said his only regret was that he killed the teenager, who he thought was older. Under crossexamination, Miller said he would have been fine with killing Reat if he had been Jewish. He said he was justified killing the other two because they were Jewish sympathizers, adding that he thought the prosecutor and judge also associated with Jews. “If I had known you and you were there, I would have probably shot you,
too,” he told District Attorney Steve Howe moments before finishing his time on the witness stand. During Miller’s testimony, Howe objected frequently and said Miller’s comments were not relevant to the capital murder trial. As the judge sustained each objection, Miller appeared to grow more frustrated. “I promised this court that I would not lose my temper,” he said. “I’m doing the best I can.” Miller said that while he was carrying out the attacks he knew he might end up getting the death penalty. “You guys are going to put me on death row. We all know that,” he told jurors. Miller has at times seemed overwhelmed by legal proceedings he called “mumbo jumbo.” Capital murder trials in Kansas have a guilt phase focusing on evidence about the crime and a sentencing phase when defendants are allowed to present mitigating evidence — including what was on their mind at the time — intended to spare them from a death sentence. Testimony was concluded on Friday. Closing arguments begin Monday.

One of Janet’s recent walks drew more attention than normal, in part, because a JournalWorld photographer was tracking her like a paparazzi who had lost his car keys. Both Janet and the photographer were walking down the middle of a Brook Creek neighborhood street. “What’s going on here?� one resident who was in his front yard asked. Janet told him she was on a quest to walk along every city street in Lawrence. “But why?� “Because,� Janet said. “I want to live until I’m old.� Maybe not so nutty after all. Janet, a 74-yearold retired teacher, has gotten a good part of her quest done. She pulls out a worn map full of orange highlighted streets that she’s already traveled. Large parts of Lawrence east of Iowa Street are marked off. Lots of nice straight lines that she’s traveled. West Iowa Street is less colorful and a lot more curvy. “Nobody asked my opinion about how to build this side of town,� Janet says of west Lawrence. “For my purpose, straighter streets would have been nice.� Janet started walking in October because she and her husband planned on booking a trip to Scotland, where hiking was going to be a major part of the vacation. “I figure before I spend a whole lot of money, I had better figure out whether I can walk 7 miles per day,� she says. But that trip was several soles ago. The couple returned from Scotland in May, but Janet has kept on walking, although she did slow some during the heat of the summer. Perhaps she found that while it may be rough on soles, it is good for the soul. Ask Janet about the condition of the city’s sidewalks, and she says they are really pretty good, which is an opinion that is not shared by many pedestrian advocates. It does not seem to faze her that she’s giving her answer while we’re walking down the middle of a street because there are no sidewalks on either side.

of it. I’m lucky to hear her because there are dogs barking so fiercely that I would soak my socks if one of them figured out how to break through the fence. Ask Janet — who grew up in Lawrence and then returned about 13 years ago — what she’s learned about the community she’s seeing step by step, and she has a simple answer. “It is still a really pretty town,� she says. Never mind that we’ve already walked through two yards with unmowed grass almost up to our knees. But you know what? Maybe I ought to walk more. If Janet is any indication, a good walk doesn’t just lighten the scale — it also removes a little weight from your shoulders and lets you see the world the way it ought to be. In case you haven’t noticed, it has been a little crazy in Lawrence lately, so we all probably could benefit from a good walk. Janet says folks probably would enjoy it more than they think.
You never know where a good walk will take your mind. When she was walking North Lawrence streets, lots of memories of the 1951 flood came back to her. Bad times, but lots of folks came together from that.
Then there are parts of town that she doesn’t have any memories of at all because she’s never been there before, and probably never would be there if she were just driving around in a car. “I’ve been on a lot of streets that I’ve never

Mom must stick to rules for 18-year-old son Dear Annie: My son, who is 18, finally has a girlfriend. Even though she is a year older, they are only children. Both are working toward associate degrees. My son has a part-time seasonal job and sometimes has to work weekends. His girlfriend doesn’t have a job but is supposedly looking. They are both living with me rent-free and now the girlfriend says my son can’t work Sundays because he needs to go to church with her family. I have set new rules for living here: They each need to pay $50 a week and clean up after themselves. The girlfriend doesn’t like any of that. They use my car and don’t take care of it, and neither of them has insurance. This is my son’s very first girlfriend, and although I

rent, cleaning and cooking assistance or both. If they are unwilling to comply, give them a firm deadline for moving out — perhaps into a dorm. We’re sorry your son has picked a lemon as his first girlfriend, but that is his choice and we advise you to remain neutral. Dear Annie: A year ago, my brother’s daughter got married. I wasn’t well at the time and couldn’t attend, but I sent a nice gift. My two sisters also didn’t attend for different reasons. The problem is, my brother is no longer speaking to any of us. I feel terrible. My sisters are OK with it, saying he’s the one who is losing out, but it bothers me every day. I tried to contact him, but he wants no part of it.

Although you may have had a good reason, it was probably the combined absence of all of you that turned the tide. Please see whether there is a mutual friend who would intercede and explain how sorry you are, that you miss him and hope he can forgive you. Life’s too short to hold such grudges.

their own. Instead, students take in the lecture — often an online video lecture recorded by the teacher, a slideshow or a combination — at home, then come to class to work on problems and discussions in groups with the teacher there to offer feedback.
Some rooms flip better than others While teachers can try it anywhere, certain classroom setups are more conducive to this approach than others, especially for large classes. “I’ve been doing that since 2011 in Spahr, and it was not ideal,” Williams said. “Not that that auditorium isn’t nice. It was like a track meet, going up and down the stairs the whole time.” Williams’ new classroom is full of eight- or nine-person round tables with rolling chairs. Each table has a microphone for students to speak into when sharing results with the whole class, and a document camera they can slide their work under so it displays on video monitors that encircle the room. It’s the largest of six active-learning classrooms in the building, LEEP2, which opened to its first classes this semester. Williams said Material and Energy Balances is a typical “weed-out” class for engineering majors. When she first started teaching it, she said, about 38 percent of students got Ds, Fs or withdrew. After she flipped her teaching approach — though still in Spahr auditorium where students were limited to collaborating with seatmates on either side — that rate shrank to 23 percent, she said. Williams said she’s excited to track students’ success after combining flipped-style teaching and the flipped style classroom. As long as they’re willing to work, Williams said, students can spend as long as they need with lecture material at home on their own time. In class, their peers and the teacher are right there to help, and sharing work from a whole table is less intimidating than going up to the blackboard of a lecture hall solo to do a problem. ‘Professors can no longer simply pump out information’ A 2012 Chronicle of Higher Education article on the flipped trend’s emergence cited several reasons for increasing interest. In addition to technological innovation enabling such things as at-home online lectures, the article says policy makers and advocacy groups seeking to improve higher education

most 50 flipped courses (to varying degrees) across 25 departments. She assumes additional teachers are redesigning courses outside of the Center’s program. “My dream is that someday this is the norm, and we don’t have to call it course transformation or course redesign, and that everybody’s teaching in this way,” Greenhoot said. That doesn’t necessarily mean the Budig Hall auditorium will become defunct, though. Greenhoot’s group is still studying outcomes, but so far, she said, universities are in a budget situation where it would be challenging to get rid of those 1,000-person lectures and it would be hard to flip them because they are so big. “We’re going to have to figure this out,” Greenhoot said. “But I think that’s where a hybrid format for the course might become really useful.” Back in Material and Energy Balances class, Bridgette Befort, sophomore chemical engineering major from Topeka, said she liked the flipped style so far. The class experience, she assumes, is similar to what she’ll one day be doing in the “real world.” “It’s a lot more conducive to working in groups,” she said. “You learn by working in groups and by collaborating, so we’re able to do that here.” Spencer Kaba, sophomore chemical engineering major from Wichita, said he liked being able to learn at his own pace and also liked the new classroom. “I highly enjoy the technology aspect,” he said. “The classroom’s very good for being able to show information easily.” One complaint against flipped classes is that some students want the passive learning experience of a lecture, or don’t want to work in groups. Kaba said he was shy talking with strangers but that he was working on it. On day two of class he eased into the collaborative format by sitting at a table between two Faculty who friends he already knew flip increasing from his dorm. Five faculty members “That tends to help,” he participated formally in said. the Center’s course redesign effort in 2012, Greenhoot said. Last spring there were 72 faculty — KU and higher ed reporter Sara Shepherd can be reached at sshepherd@ members participating, ljworld.com or 832-7187. resulting in a total of alwant to see more evidence that students are really learning. “As pressure mounts to graduate more students, and as cognitive psychology produces new insights into how students learn, these observers say professors can no longer simply pump out information and take it on faith that students understand it,” according to the Chronicle. At KU, the university’s Center for Teaching Excellence is is leading an initiative to transform courses to be more active and engaged, and ultimately improve student retention and graduation rates, said Sara Rosen, senior vice provost for academic affairs. “We are targeting large freshman-enrolled courses, particularly those with higher failure rates, for redesign using active learning approaches,” Rosen said. “As opportunity arises, we are transforming classroom space to enhance the active learning experience for students and faculty.” Andrea Greenhoot, psychology professor and director of the Center, said there’s an active-learning classroom similar to the engineering classrooms in Wescoe Hall and several under construction in the new school of business building. Many more classrooms across campus, though they lack the cutting-edge technology, have been reconfigured for active learning, she said, with multiple white-boards and moveable furniture. Likewise, she said, many courses are different degrees of flipped, with some like Williams’ being fully so and others, sometimes referred to as hybrid classes, employing some aspects of a flipped classroom. “We’ve known for years ... that if you get people actively involved in practicing information that they’re going to learn more than by simply trying to memorize it,” Greenhoot said. “What we’re really trying to do is shift delivery to out-of-class time, so in-class time can be used on activities that promote deeper and longer-lasting learning.”

Affirming the right to choose death

Inspection questions The safety inspection process for the local school projects funded by a $92.5 million bond issue raises important questions.
A
serious injury suffered by a child at a local school construction site has raised some troubling questions about the handling of safety inspections for a group of recent school projects. In an attempt to save money on the projects, the Lawrence school district apparently chose to waive safety inspections of those sites. At issue was about $280,000 in fees that the school district was going to owe for city inspections and permits for the projects funded by a $92.5 million bond issue. That seems like a relatively small amount for such a large amount of construction, but the district was trying to reduce its costs. The city hesitated to waive the fees because of the large amount of time and paperwork involved, so the district struck a deal with county officials to provide some inspections without a fee. As part of the agreement, district officials relieved the county of responsibility for construction site safety and turned that duty over to the contractors themselves, which is sort of like leaving the proverbial fox to inspect the henhouse. Maybe the safety measures implemented by the contractors would meet city codes — or maybe not. That’s why inspections usually are required. The city’s planning director says the city would never agree to have a contractor responsible for safety without inspections. It now appears that the contractor at New York School, and perhaps other school projects across the city, failed to meet the city standard for fencing around construction areas and perhaps other safety requirements — a situation that came to light when an 8-year-old boy suffered serious injuries at the New York School site. Considering that the $280,000 was basically local taxpayer money being transferred from one public coffer to another, the city and school district should have tried harder to negotiate an acceptable inspection fee. Both bear responsibility for the resulting situation — the city for allowing the district to sidestep city inspection requirements and the school district for entering into questionable safety inspection agreements in an effort to reduce a fee that amounted to about threetenths of 1 percent of the overall project. The injury at New York School confirms the need for construction sites to meet city safety requirements. Taxpayers have a right to be concerned about whether the school district’s arrangement with contractors met those standards.

San Diego — Brittany Maynard was soon to die. The question was whether she could do so on her own terms, as a last act of autonomy. Dr. Lynette Cederquist, who regrets that Maynard had to move to Oregon in order to do so, is working with others to change California law to allow physician assistance in dying. Maynard, a 29-year-old newlywed, knew that her brain cancer would fill her final months with excruciating headaches, seizures, paralysis, loss of eyesight and the ability to speak. Radiation and chemotherapy would have purchased mere months. “I’m not killing myself,” she said. “Cancer is killing me.” She would not put her loved ones through her cancer’s depredations. Advances in public health and medical capabilities for prolonging life — and dying — intensify interest in endof-life issues. Reductions in heart disease and stroke have increased the number of people living to experience decrepitude’s encroachments, including dementia. “Dementia,” Cederquist says, “is a whole different dilemma.” Assisted suicide perhaps should be allowed only when survival is estimated at six months or less, but at that time persons suffering dementia have lost decisional capacity. Physician-assisted dying has been done surreptitiously “as long as we have been practicing medicine,” says Cederquist, professor of internal

“
There is nobility in suffering bravely borne, but also in affirming at the end the distinctive human dignity of autonomous choice.” medicine at the University of California, San Diego. Today, even in the 46 states without physician-assisted dying, doctors may legally offer “terminal sedation” — say, a lifeshortening dose of morphine — when intense physical suffering cannot otherwise be satisfactorily alleviated. Cederquist says the most common reason for requesting assistance in dying is not “intolerable physical suffering.” Rather, it is “existential suffering,” including “loss of meaning,” as from the ability to relate to others. The prospect of being “unable to interact” can be as intolerable as physical suffering, and cannot be alleviated by hospice or other palliative care. In some countries, doctors actively administer lethal injections. No U.S. jurisdiction allows doctors to go beyond writing prescriptions for life-
ending drugs to be self-administered orally by persons retaining decisional capacity. Almost 30 percent of Medicare expenditures are for patients in the last six months of life and about 16 percent of patients die in, or soon after leaving, intensive care units. Financial reasons should not be decisive in setting endof-life policy, but Cederquist notes that reducing “expensive and inappropriate care” — costly and agonizing resistance to imminent death — “is the lowest-tech thing we can do in medicine.” Hence the importance of “slow medicine geriatrics,” avoiding a “rush to those interventions that build on each other” and thereby enmesh doctors and patients in ethical conundrums. The American Medical Association remains opposed to physician assistance in dying; the California Medical Association has moved from opposition to neutrality. Litigation has been unsuccessful in seeking judicial affirmation of a right that California’s Legislature should establish. Legislation to do this has been authored by Assemblywoman Susan Eggman, chair of the Democratic caucus. There are reasons for wariness. An illness’s six-month trajectory can be uncertain. A right to die can become a felt obligation, particularly among bewildered persons tangled in the toils of medical technologies, or persons with meager family resources. And as a reason for ending life,
mental suffering itself calls into question the existence of the requisite decisional competence. Today’s culture of casual death (see the Planned Parenthood videos) should deepen worries about a slippery slope from physicianassisted dying to a further diminution of life’s sanctity. Life, however, is inevitably lived on multiple slippery slopes: Taxation could become confiscation, police could become instruments of oppression, public education could become indoctrination, etc. Everywhere and always, civilization depends on the drawing of intelligent distinctions. Jennifer Glass, a Californian who died Aug. 11, drew one. She said to her state legislators, “I’m doing everything I can to extend my life. No one should have the right to prolong my death.” The Economist reports that in the 17 years under Oregon’s pioneering 1997 law, just 1,327 people have received prescriptions for lethal medications — about 74 a year — and one-third of those did not use them. Possessing the option was sufficient reassurance. There is nobility in suffering bravely borne, but also in affirming at the end the distinctive human dignity of autonomous choice. Brittany Maynard, who chose to be with loved ones when she self-administered her lethal medications, was asleep in five minutes and soon dead. — George Will is a columnist for Washington Post Writers Group.

Violence draws unwilling audience “I’ve seen enough. I don’t want to see any more.” — Bruce Springsteen, “Cover Me” When terrorists beheaded Wall Street Journal reporter Daniel Pearl in 2002 and posted video of the killing online, I refused to look. I explained my reasoning in this space. To watch that video, I wrote, knowing it was staged specifically to fill me with revulsion and fear, would feel like cooperating with the monsters who killed him. It would make me an accomplice. I didn’t want to see. I didn’t want that blood on my soul. Not long after that column appeared, I did see Pearl die. The video of his killing showed up in my inbox, sent by a stranger. Before I even knew what was going on, a terrorist was on my computer screen holding up the head of this 38-year-old husband and expectant father. And I learned a sobering truth about murder and media in the new millennium. Increasingly, the decision about what we will and will not see is not ours to make. Increasingly, we are at the mercy, not simply of murderous monsters, but also of our own friends, family and

colleagues who act as their henchmen, forwarding, retweeting and re-posting their grisly misdeeds as casually as neighbors in another age might have shared recipes over the back fence. If there were ever any doubt about that, what happened last Wednesday morning on live local television in Roanoke, Va., just laid them to rest. It wasn’t just that former WDBJ news reporter Vester Lee Flanagan II shot and killed two former colleagues — news reporter Alison Parker and cameraman
Adam Ward — as they interviewed local official Vicki Gardner, who was wounded but is expected to survive. Wretched as it was, that kind of event is ordinary in America, the fabric of any given Wednesday. But Flanagan, who committed suicide as police closed in on him hours later, went well beyond the wretched ordinary. He filmed the murder with his cellphone, tweeted about it, posted the video on Facebook. For good measure, he faxed his manifesto to ABC News; it is said to be a 23-page rant in which Flanagan, who was black and gay, blames racism, homophobia, the Charleston massacre and micromanaging former bosses for sending him over the edge. He also expresses his dislike for whites, Latinos and blacks and his admiration for the mass killers who shot up Columbine High and Virginia Tech. In other words, he curated this murder, used tools of social media — and traditional media — to manage it like a PR campaign. In essence, he provided us his press kit. And while that bespeaks a deranged man’s incomprehensible narcissism, it also suggests a canny understanding of his target audience: us. Indeed, within hours, the
video of Flanagan’s atrocity was so ubiquitous online that Ella, one of my colleagues, posted that she was signing off for the day after being ambushed by it. She was, she wrote, just “being silly” with Facebook friends, and the next thing she knew, there was death, live on her screen. “I can’t stop crying. I wasn’t ready. … What are we becoming?” “The world,” wrote William Wordsworth, “is too much with us.” This was in 1806, 200 years before the first tweets and Facebook postings. Yet the poet’s words seem to capture something true about our time, when we live cheek-by-jowl online, connected to one another in ways he could never have imagined, and some people post murder porn like a new music video, as if it has never occurred to them that not everyone will not want to see this — or can bear to do so. You’d think you’d have a right to make that decision for yourself. But these days, apparently, that’s no longer your call to make. This, then, is Vester Flanagan’s perverse triumph. He has made witnesses of us all. — Leonard Pitts Jr. is a columnist for the Miami Herald.

BRIEFLY Tiny town of 10 lacks leader Frederick — The future of a tiny central Kansas town is uncertain after no one ran in an election to pick its leaders or apparently even voted. With no mayor or city council, the town of Frederick was unable to submit a budget that was due Tuesday to Rice County officials, The Hutchinson News reported. Without a budget, Rice County Clerk Alicia Showalter said, officials in Frederick, which has about 10 residents, will no longer be able to write checks legally after Jan. 1. “It’s a totally weird situation: There is nobody that can take action to do anything,” Showalter said. For a city to become unincorporated, state statute calls for residents to bring a petition to the city council, which will call for a special election. A decision must pass by a two-thirds vote, said Eric Smith, an attorney for the Kansas League of Municipalities. The process won’t work with Frederick because of the lack of elected leadership. Also, Kansas isn’t among the 15 states with passive dissolution laws that would take effect when a town fails to elect or appoint officers or levy and collect taxes. Frederick, which was incorporated in 1887, once had as many as 150 people. Today, almost every business except the grain elevator has disappeared.

President Obama sought to spotlight the effects of global warming Saturday as he prepared to travel to Alaska. “Alaskans are already living with its effects,” he said in his weekly address. Average temperatures in the state — experiencing one of its worst wildfire seasons on record — are likely to rise by 6 to 12 degrees if nothing is done to halt climate change, Obama said. Four villages are in imminent danger from rising sea waters as glaciers melt. “This is all real. This is happening to our fellow Americans right now,” he said. “Think about that. If another country threatened to wipe out an American town, we’d do everything in our power to protect ourGETTY IMAGES selves. Climate Obama: “This change poses is all real.” the same threat, right now.” The president is striking a tricky balance between conservation and energy production. He has long supported expanded drilling for oil — the fuel that has contributed to global warming — off the Alaskan coast. Obama is facing criticism from environmentalists for his Alaska trip, which begins Monday. “Climate leaders don’t drill the Arctic,” the activist group CREDO said in an online petition. “Talking about the urgency of climate change while allowing massive fossil fuel extraction isn’t leadership, it’s hypocrisy.” Obama said in his address that he shares concerns about offshore oil drilling, and that he remembers the BP oil spill in the Gulf “all too well.” But he said the United States still has to rely on oil and gas while it is transitioning toward renewable energy sources, such as wind and solar. He noted that while his administration issued a permit to Shell to drill off the Alaskan coast, it also mandated strict safety standards. “It’s a testament to how rigorous we’ve applied those standards that Shell has delayed and limited its exploration off Alaska while trying to meet them,” Obama said.

Labs cited for lax security in bioterror germ research Federal officials are concerned a lab insider could unleash a pathogen on the public Alison Young
@alisonannyoung USA TODAY
Amid concerns about the potential of a laboratory insider unleashing a deadly bioterror pathogen on the public, President Obama ordered greater scrutiny of workers with access to the riskiest microbes five years ago. The goal was to prevent something like the 2001 anthrax letter attacks — or worse — from happening again. But not all labs are taking required actions. In the past two years, federal regulators have secretly threatened to revoke permits to study bioterror pathogens from at least six labs — including those operated by Brigham Young University in Utah, the University of HawaiiManoa and the California Department of Public Health — because they failed to take required actions to assess the be-
year that they had “significant concerns” whether its lab staff could work with potential bioterror pathogens “in a manner which does not endanger public health and safety.” California’s Health Department lab in Richmond allowed unapproved staff to have key cards that let them into restricted areas and “failed to address safety issues over the course of the last four years,” regulators told the lab.

New Orleans ‘blessed’ but still needs help Rick Jervis USA TODAY
ORLEANS Brass bands blared and people danced Saturday in the streets that 10 years ago were buried by a wall of water that ruined homes, drowned residents and brought the city to the brink of annihilation. In the Lower 9th Ward, local and national leaders mingled with clergy members along North Claiborne Avenue and laid flowers next to a granite plaque commemorating those killed in the 2005 floods that followed Hurricane Katrina. Rep. Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., and former Louisiana senator Mary Landrieu followed a marching band with residents along the thoroughfare. “We’re so blessed,” said Laura McCann, 77, a resident whose house was demolished by the floods. Today, she lives in a home built by actor Brad Pitt’s Make It Right foundation. “It’s going to be a while. But we’re coming back.” The events in the Lower 9th Ward culminated a week’s worth of panel discussions, speeches by past presidents and concerts celebrating the city’s resurgence.

Erika was downgraded to a tropical rainstorm Saturday as it headed toward the United States, where it was expected to bring heavy rain and gusty winds. The National Hurricane Center discontinued all advisories and warnings as the storm degenerated into a trough of low pressure. Its remnants were expected to bring rainfall of 3 to 6 inches in portions of the Dominican Republic, Haiti and Cuba through Sunday. The center also said between 3 to 5 inches of rain could fall on parts of central and South Florida starting Sunday. The storm was sustaining winds of 35 mph Saturday as it continued to move closer to Cuba. It was expected to move into the southeastern Gulf of Mexico on Sunday. The storm could regenerate, however, as it continues to make its way toward the Gulf. Areas in the storm’s path were advised to prepare for heavy rains and gusty winds.

The breach of levees and subsequent floods in 2005 submerged 80% of the city. Overall, Katrina was responsible for over 1,800 deaths in the region, the majority occurring in New Orleans. The city has largely rebuilt and repopulated, but some areas, such as the Lower 9th Ward, have struggled to return to normal. State Sen. J.P.

Secrecy makes it hard to gauge public risk v CONTINUED FROM 1B
included failures to implement suitability assessments of key lab staff, installing a security system but not making it operational, and having lab staff that didn’t understand how to use respiratory protection needed to prevent exposure to infectious agents. Officials at the three sanctioned labs that USA TODAY was able to identify refused to be interviewed but said in emails that the cited violations have been corrected. Brigham Young officials said their lab’s security violations involved administrative and paperwork issues. USA TODAY is working to identify the other three labs, whose names were removed from letters federal lab regulators released under the Freedom of Information Act. How significant the security violations are is unclear because so much of the oversight of labs working with “select agents” — the government’s term for potential bioterror pathogens such as those that cause anthrax, plague and botulism — is cloaked in secrecy. Lab regulators at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention refused to answer questions. The Federal Select Agent Program, jointly run by the CDC and the U.S. Department of Agriculture, refused to release the names of more than 100 labs that have faced enforcement actions for a wide range of safety violations since 2003. The lack of public information makes it difficult to gauge the risks posed by the violations and whether federal inspectors are focusing on issues that have a real impact on improving safety and security, said biosecurity experts and policymakers. The bipartisan leaders of the House Energy and Commerce Committee, which has held two hearings on lab safety and oversight in the past year, said they are continuing their investigation to find root causes and solutions to serious safety incidents at U.S. research facilities.

The problems continued undetected despite regulators previously citing the lab in 2007 for failing to properly kill anthrax. “After repeated, inexcusable blunders with anthrax, smallpox and other dangerous pathogens, it is clear that this system is not
lab regulators examine and cite during their visits. Though some violations involved potential safety issues, many of the violations cited at the Richmond, Calif., lab appear to involve missing language in policy manuals found during paperwork reviews. Less emphasis should be placed on the paperwork and more on actions that assess and improve safety cultures, some lab experts said. “Sure, we need regulations and oversight,” said David Franz, a former commander of the U.S.
Army Medical Research Institute of Infectious Diseases in Maryland. “But safety and security are not enhanced by nit-picking bureaucratic policy manual reviews, arbitrary interpretation of regs and agonizingly slow communication with the labs.” Lab regulators at the CDC are in the midst of a 90-day review of how the agency regulates safety and security at hundreds of public, private and government labs working with select agent pathogens. The review was launched in July in the wake of the USA TODAY Media Network’s ongoing investigation that has revealed government inspectors allowing labs to keep experimenting despite failing to meet key requirements on inspection after inspection. Lab regulators at the USDA are doing a similar review of their part of oversight program. It was launched in June, a spokeswoman said Thursday. CDC officials declined to be interviewed or to answer questions about their enforcement of the enhanced security regulations, many of which took effect in April 2013 and require initial and ongoing “suitability” assessments of lab workers with access to Tier 1 select agents. This group of pathogens is deemed by the government to pose the greatest risk
of deliberate misuse with the most significant potential for mass casualties or devastating economic effects. It includes the bacteria that cause anthrax, botulism and plague, the Ebola virus and several other agents. The regulations require a variety of security enhancements, including evaluating unusual behaviors, incidents or life changes among lab workers in ways that go beyond FBI background checks. They stem from an executive order signed by President Obama in 2010. The Federal Select Agent Program cites the anthrax letter attacks in October 2001 — which the FBI says were the result of an Army microbiologist — as an example of how deadly and costly the misuse of a pathogen by a lab “insider” can be. Five people were killed and 17 others sickened. The contamination caused by the anthrax letters disrupted businesses and closed parts of government, costing more than $23 million to decontaminate one Senate building, according to a guidance document on the suitability regulations. The Postal Service lost about $2 billion in revenue, and there was up to $3 billion in added costs to the Postal Service for decontamination and getting mailsanitizing equipment.

Cyber security bill may face tough road Hurdles include busy legislative calendar, privacy concerns
Cooper Allen @coopallen USA TODAY
Erin Kelly USA TODAY
In a week marked by Donald Trump’s feuds with prominent media personalities, there were also notable endorsements. Some memorable moments from the world of politics: TRUMP REMOVES ANCHOR FROM NEWS CONFERENCE Trump has had a volatile relationship with the media — most notably Fox News’ Megyn Kelly — and that was on full display Tuesday evening in Iowa. Univision’s Jorge Ramos was removed from a news conference after he tried to ask the GOP presidential candidate about his immigration plan as Trump responded, “You weren’t called.” Ramos was eventually let back in and questioned Trump, but the incident drew a rebuke from the National Association of Hispanic Journalists. The next morning, Trump told Matt Lauer on “Today” that Ramos was “ranting and raving like a madman.” Ramos, meanwhile, said on “Good Morning America”: “Never in my life — and I’ve been a journalist more than 30 years — I’ve been thrown out of a press conference.”
Feeling pressure to act, Congress is struggling to pass a cyber security bill in the wake of this year’s massive hacks that stole the data of millions of government workers, taxpayers and consumers. But concerns about the bill’s impact on privacy rights — combined with a packed legislative calendar — could derail passage of the legislation in this Congress, supporters and opponents say. WASHINGTON
“I think time is very much against us,” said Matt Eggers, who handles cyber security issues at the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and is pushing for lawmakers to pass a bill. “Our biggest challenge right now is to get it to the Senate floor for a vote in September. If we do that, then I think we have a pretty good shot.” Congress is facing a daunting to-do list when it returns to work Sept. 8, including votes on the Iran nuclear deal and passing a bill to fund the government past Sept. 30. Lawmakers also are preparing for the first-ever papal address to Congress by Pope Francis on Sept. 24. When the Senate left town in August for recess, it stopped debate on the Cybersecurity Infor-

mation Sharing Act, which would encourage the voluntary sharing of cyber threat information among private companies and between companies and the government. The bill offers liability protection to shield companies from lawsuits for sharing customer information. Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore., has offered two amendments to strengthen the bill’s privacy protections but said he still believes
the legislation is unnecessary. He said he fears lawmakers are rushing to pass a flawed bill in the wake of the recent attack that compromised the data of 21.5 million people whose records were stored by the Office of Personnel Management (OPM). “Nobody wants to look soft on cyberattacks,” Wyden said. “The problem is that our best technologists out there say this is not going to stop the hacks or protect people’s information. But it is going to create an invasion of people’s privacy.” Eggers said privacy advocates should be more concerned about hackers stealing data. “If they’re so concerned about privacy, where’s their outrage over the OPM attack?” he said.

The religious journey of Marco Rubio has more twists than a pretzel. By his account, he was baptized a Roman Catholic, then baptized a Mormon, then got his parents to return to the Catholic Church and to enroll him in parochial school, from which he withdrew — all before age 13. Rubio now attends Catholic churches as well as an evangelical Protestant mega-church that his wife (whom he married in a Catholic ceremony) joined during a period when Rubio himself had drifted away from church. Pope Francis’ first U.S. visit next month will focus attention on the 2016 presidential candidates’ religious backgrounds, many of which contain almost as many shifts as Rubio’s. In this, the candidates reflect a big part of the nation they hope to lead, one characterized by looser religious loyalties and what a report this year by the Pew Research Center called “a remarkable degree of churn in the U.S. religious landscape.” The presidential field splits roughly into two groups: stickers and switchers. The stickers, like
Many 2016 hopefuls known to church-shop most Americans, still worship in the denomination in which they were raised. The switchers have changed denominations or faiths — sometimes, like Rubio, more than once. Among the switchers: u Jeb Bush was baptized an Episcopalian and attended Presbyterian and Episcopal churches as a boy in Texas. In 1995, two decades after marrying a Roman Catholic, he became one himself. u Scott Walker traded his preacher-father’s relatively liberal mainline Protestant American Baptist affiliation to join a more conservative nondenominational evangelical mega-church.
u Rand Paul was baptized Episcopalian, attended a Baptist university (Baylor) and now goes to a Presbyterian church at home in Bowling Green, Ky. u Bobby Jindal, born a Hindu, converted to Roman Catholicism while in college (to his parents’ dismay) and now calls himself “an evangelical Catholic.” u John Kasich, who as a boy aspired to become a Roman Catholic priest, later drifted away. He says that after his parents were killed in a car crash in 1987, he turned back to God. He now belongs to a church in Westerville, Ohio, that’s affiliated with the Anglican Church in North

America. That denomination was founded in 2009 by former members of the U.S. Episcopal Church dissatisfied with its increasingly liberal tendencies, like the election of a gay bishop. u Carly Fiorina, raised an Episcopalian, has spoken of her “personal relationship” with God, but belongs to no particular denomination or church. Stickers include candidates like Hillary Clinton, a Methodist since childhood; Martin O’Malley, who attended Catholic elementary school, high school and college, sent his kids to Catholic school and attends Mass daily; and Mike Huckabee, a Southern Baptist who became an ordained a minister in that denomination. Ben Carson is a sort of double sticker. He was baptized twice into the Seventh-day Adventists — first as a boy in his native Detroit and a few years later in nearby Inkster, Mich., after telling the pastor he’d not fully understood baptism the first time. It’s hard to categorize Donald Trump. Although he was raised as a Presbyterian — his mother was born in heavily Presbyterian Scotland — he has been associated as an adult with Marble Collegiate Church on Fifth Avenue in Manhattan.

Harris County authorities in Texas have a man in custody in Friday’s shooting death of a sheriff’s deputy, Sheriff Ron Hickman said Saturday. The suspect, Shannon J.

Hickman said the shooting was “unprovoked” and that the department is still looking for a motive for the “cold-blooded assassination” of the officer at a Houston-area gas station. Deputy Darren Goforth, 47, was fatally shot in the back late Friday while filling his patrol car in northwest Harris County. Hickman said ballistics tests showed a match between the weapon used to kill Goforth and a weapon in Miles’ possession.

The pair spoke about “gotcha questions” from the media, simplifying the tax code and improving the economy. But most of the interview was spent extolling the virtues of Trump.

NATION/WORLD China’s thirst for Dutch baby milk dries up supply Infant formula scandal creates black market Gordon Darroch
Special for USA TODAY HAGUE , NETHERLANDS Thieves recently struck Edwin Legebeke’s supermarket, but it wasn’t run-of-the-mill shoplifting. The criminals absconded with an unlikely, yet highly prized bounty: a dozen tubs of milk powder. “One of them distracted me, a second one kept the cashier busy and the third one made off with the goods,” said Legebeke, who owns the store in Doetinchem, 80 miles southeast of Amsterdam. “It makes me raging mad.” Dutch baby formula is such a prized commodity in China that shelves in the Netherlands are running dry amid a thriving black market. There have been 900 thefts of formula in the past year, Dutch police spokeswoman Lisette van Bale said. The run on Dutch milk products dates to 2008, when the Chinese government disclosed that one of the country’s biggest dairy producers had been watering down formula and adding melamine — an industrial compound used in manufacturing plastics and adhesives. Six children died of kidney failure, 53,000 were hospitalized with kidney damage or other illnesses, and an estimated 300,000 were sickened. Consumer confidence in Chinese baby formula collapsed, and mothers began importing powdered milk in massive quantities. Soon, Chinese tourists and Netherlands residents with relatives in China began mailing trusted Dutch brands of powdered milk or toting it on their flights to the world’s most populous country. The Netherlands is not the only country impacted by surging Chinese demand for baby formula. Irish, Danish and New Zealand dairies have also felt the impact of the market implosion. But dairy products from the Netherlands, Europe’s fourth-largest dairy producer, enjoy a special cachet among Chinese parents, said Peter Ho, an expert in Chinese economics at Delft University of Technology. The country is also a major international transportation hub, making it perfect for traders seeking to send milk cheaply to China or hide it among other products bound for the East. Dutch dairies have tried setting up production lines in China, but Chinese consumers distrust formula with a “Made in China” label. In the last three months of 2014, Netherlands’ national mail carrier reported sending 600,000 packages of baby milk to China. Unable to keep up with the demand, Dutch retailers introduced rationing measures. Some stores limit sales to one or two packs of formula per customer. Others set a minimum purchase amount on THE

3 sick migrants found in 2nd truck in Austria Marco della Cava @marcodellacava USA TODAY
Europe’s human trafficking crisis deepened Saturday with the discovery of three ill children inside a truck carrying 26 migrants and a 15-year-old who died of suffocation aboard a boat off the coast of Greece. The boat where the teen was found was carrying 60 migrants to a Greek island near Turkey. It was stopped by a European border patrol boat, but its captain tried to evade the officials and wound up ramming the patrol boat before being boarded, according to the Associated Press. The three children discovered inside a cramped minivan with dozens of other migrants were recovering Saturday from severe dehydration. Its Romanian driver, stopped in the Braunau district of Austria, was arrested after a chase, the BBC reported. The refugees were from Syria, Afghanistan and Bangladesh, all countries suffering the ravages of war and poverty. Meanwhile, in Hungary on Saturday, four men accused of involvement in the trafficking of 71 migrants — 59 men, eight women and four children — who were found dead in a truck in Austria were brought before a Hungarian court. The refrigerated truck with the dead migrants was found Thursday in the safety lane of the main Budapest-to-Vienna highway. The suspects, three Bulgarians and one Afghan, were detained in Hungary later that day. The case is being heard in Kecskemet, in central Hungary, because the truck set off from the city before picking up the migrants near the country’s south-

Four suspects in the deaths of 71 migrants found in an abandoned truck arrive Saturday for a hearing in Hungary. ern border with Serbia, Gabor Schmidt, a spokesman for the Bacs-Kiskun county chief prosecution office, told reporters outside the courthouse, according to the Associated Press. Schmidt said Hungarian authorities are investigating the suspects’ involvement in the human trafficking aspects of the case, while their connection to the deaths of the migrants is being investigated by Austrian authorities. Prosecutors were asking the court in Kecskemet at a closeddoor hearing to order the suspects’ preliminary arrest on suspicion of qualified human smuggling, which carries a sentence of between two and 16 years in prison. The initial deten-
tion period would be up to 30 days, which could be extended by a judge for up to one year, Schmidt said. Austrian officials were busy conducting autopsies, but preliminary reports indicate that the migrants, mostly Syrians, likely suffocated and may have died before they reached Austria. The lure of a better life in comparatively stable Europe is drawing tens of thousands of migrants from neighboring countries. This year, around 300,000 people have crossed the Mediterranean Sea, according to the office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees. Of those, at least 2,373 died, according to the International Organization for Migration.

The limits don’t always work: Stores have reported frustrated customers turning to violence. “On average, we get three or four reports a week of verbal and physical aggression,” said Henk Baars of GIO, a liaison organization between retailers and the police. “Personnel are verbally abused, pelted with products, punched or spat at.”

With formula selling in China for as much as five times the Dutch store price, organized crime has also gotten into the act, Ho said. “It’s very clear that there are a lot of people involved and it’s well organized,” he said. “There are various trade routes, but exactly what form they take is largely unknown territory. It’s hard to tell because it’s a clandestine market.” Dutch police say they have intercepted trucks on the highway piled high with powdered milk containers, sometimes transported with large sums of cash. Retailers want authorities to do more to stem the illicit trade. “We have urged the police to treat these offenses as organized crime rather than shoplifting, so the perpetrators are not just given a warning and put back on the streets,” said Suzanne van de Graaf of Detailhandel Nederland, a retailers’ trade association. Van Bale said the police are pursuing criminals to the full extent of the law. Earlier this year, the European Union lifted milk quotas in a move that could boost exports within the 23-member bloc and enable European dairy producers to meet Chinese demand. But until those dynamics change, the black market in powdered milk and its associated crime will likely continue, Ho said.
Reporters’ killings lead to workplace reviews Process begins with job interview, experts say, and fellow employees should be vigilant Charisse Jones USA TODAY
The murders last week of two TV journalists in Virginia by a disgruntled former colleague are spurring employers to review security procedures, from how carefully they screen hires to whether employees know whom to contact if they have concerns about a co-worker’s behavior. “Every time an incident like this happens, employers are reminded once again, ‘Well, yes, it could happen here,’ ” says Brent O’Bryan, vice president of learning and development at AlliedBarton Security Services, which specializes in workplace security. Many employers are now evaluating not only their hiring and retention policies, O’Bryan says, but also looking at areas such as “what training are we doing if an incident happens?” and “Does every employee know what to do?” The Virginia tragedy occurred
last Wednesday, when Vester Lee Flanagan shot Alison Parker, 24, and Adam Ward, 27, former coworkers at Roanoke, Va., station WDBJ7-TV, before fatally shooting himself. Flanagan had been fired by the station two years earlier because of anger issues. The chance that an embittered employee will become violent is extremely low. Of the 4,585 workplace-related deaths in 2013, 404, or 9%, were homicides, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics Census of Fatal Occupational Injuries. That represented 2.8% of all homicides that year. And, of course, an employee struggling with mental illness isn’t necessarily dangerous. Studies of the relationship between mental illness and violence show that “the overwhelming majority of people with mental illness are not violent,” says Ron Honberg, policy director for the National Alliance on Mental Illness. An employee acting out once doesn’t necessarily mean that

colleagues should worry about their safety, says Edward Yost, an HR business partner at the Society for Human Resource Management. “But patterns of that kind of behavior on a regular and consistent basis, along with maybe other behavior changes, certainly would warrant possibly a conversation with their HR department,” he says. Employers can take precautions as early as during the hiring process to make sure they are vetting candidates for any signs of future trouble, O’Bryan says
Under the Americans with Disabilities Act, “no organization can ask questions about mental health,” O’Bryan says, but “good organizations train hiring managers on asking behavior-based questions.” For instance, a job candidate may be asked how they dealt with a conflict with a coworker at a previous job. Employees should also be taught to be vigilant. “Every employee is part of that process,” says O’Bryan. “Are there specific warning signs ... like fascination with weapons, or inconsistent or erratic behavior, bullying, harassment that goes beyond a onetime incident?” Employers should try and talk to a troubled worker. “One thing you never want to do is dismiss the reason that they feel slighted or unhappy,” Yost says. The staff member can be referred to the company’s employee assistance program, counseling, which is provided by most health insurance plans, or even state services that might be available.

ON THE FRONT BURNER PREDICTING INFLATION Stronger growth will pull inflation higher in the U.S. and Europe, according to three top central bankers who voiced confidence that their regions will escape from headwinds that are keeping inflation too low, Bloomberg News reported. Federal Reserve Vice Chairman Stanley Fischer joined European Central Bank Vice President Vitor Constancio and Bank of England Governor Mark Carney on Saturday on a panel at the Kansas City Fed’s annual retreat in Jackson Hole, Wyo. “Given the apparent stability of inflation expectations, there is good reason to believe that inflation will move higher as the forces holding down inflation dissipate further,” Fischer said in prepared remarks. Although Fischer has left open the option of an interest-rate increase when policymakers meet next month, he didn’t express a preference for acting that soon.

ndia could be the world’s next high-growth powerhouse as China’s economy slows, but only after fixing serious social injustices holding it back, according to a new documentary. India has already become a global economic engine. But the nation won’t reach its potential until it bridges the notorious gaps that separate the rich, the poor and the ever-growing middle class, says a public television documentary India Awakes. The documentary, hosted by Swedish global economist Johan Norberg, makes the case India is moving in the right direction but has a ways to go. The 60-minute film, produced by Bob Chitester and Tom Skinner, aims to showcase the potential and ambition in the lower and middle classes that could establish the country as a world economic leader. “A traditional way to look at India is through the big businesses, but that is in a way the old story of India,” Noberg said in a recent interview. “Now I think the important thing to look at is how do ordinary people who come from poor backgrounds succeed in India?” The documentary began airing on public television stations this month and will continue running through September.

UNLOCKING POTENTIAL
From an outsider’s perspective, the once bedraggled India is teeming with opportunities. Big cities like Bangalore, Hyderabad and Pune serve as its technology centers, while Mumbai is the financial hub. Fueled partly by dozens of internationally renowned companies, the country’s economy is expected to expand by 7.5% this year, among the fastest-growing in the world, according to the International Monetary Fund. But India is also home to a third of the world’s poor. World Bank forecasts indicate India is poised to lift millions out of poverty in coming years. That will happen, Norberg contends, only if the country creates more opportunities for the lower and middle classes, including legal rights for street vendors, land rights for villagers and the ability to break free from India’s rigid

India Awakes highlights the struggle to achieve these goals through individual stories such as Mannem Madhusudana Rao, who was born into one of the lowest rungs of India’s caste system, a situation that traditionally would bind him to a life of poverty.

Why the Fed should forge ahead with September rate hike Meghnad Desai and David Marsh OMFIF
As the U.S. Federal Reserve approaches its interest rate decision in September, an element of Hollywood bravado is creeping into the drama. Some emerging market economy experts favor early modest U.S. credit tightening, despite recent stock market turbulence, as a way of building faith in a recovering world economy.

Some notable Wall Street players who have profited from cheap money are dubious about rising interest rates, even calling on the Fed to re-enact some form of quantitative easing. This has the originality of the Vatican telling us its cardinals have selected a Catholic as pope. The Fed decision is finely balanced. No one, probably not even Fed Chair Janet Yellen herself, can be certain of the outcome. But here are 10 good reasons why she and her colleagues on the Federal Open Market Committee should opt for boldness and raise the rate at its next policy meeting Sept. 16-17.

The international environment — which the Fed takes into account in rate-setting — is not so universally negative as to preclude a rate rise.

Countries that have reinforced their economic fundamentals will do better than others. Financial markets should benefit from the opportunity to make a differentiated analysis of individual economies.

How’s that 401(k) working out? Some things to think about ... 3
WATCH OUT FOR A NEVER-CHANGING LANDSCAPE WITHIN YOUR OWN 401(K) PLAN.
Susan Tompor
stompor@usatoday.com USA TODAY
Let’s face it, most of us — Millennials, Boomers, whatever — would prefer to spend our free time taking a weekend road trip, picking a fantasy football team or possibly, dare I say, washing windows instead of dwelling on our 401(k) plans. But unless you plan on working until your last breath, it’s wise to take a look at what’s going on with your retirement savings. Should you check another box and put more money into that 401(k)? Review how much money you have in company stock? Some quick thoughts:
1
SAVE MORE, SAVE MORE AND SAVE MORE — ESPECIALLY IF YOU’RE YOUNGER.
Nationwide, the average 401(k) balance was $91,100 as of June 30 in 401(k)s run by Fidelity Investments. Fidelity’s pool of data is based on 13 million 401(k) accounts. Employees had a total savings rate of 12.4% based on the Fidelity data. The savings rate breaks down to an 8.1% savings rate by employees and 4.3% in company matching funds on average. Baby Boomers — who had more time to build up more savings — had on average $152,900 in those Fidelity 401(k)s nationwide. Their savings rate was 14.6% nationwide, with a 4.7% company match. By contrast, Millennials had an average balance of $22,100 in Fidelity 401(k)s across the country. Their savings rate was 10.5%, with a 3.9% company match. Gen X employees had on average $83,200 in their 401(k) accounts, with a savings rate of 12.2% nationwide. That savings rate includes an average company match of 4.3%. Jeanne Thompson, vice president of Fidelity Investments, said Millennials are benefiting in many cases from employers who have set up plans that automatically enroll their new employees into 401(k) savings plans. Some plans also automatically boost the savings rates for employees each year. Or some plans offer employees a way to sign up and automatically see an extra 1% or so of their pay go toward retirement each year.
“Right from Day One, the money is coming out for retirement,” she said. So while the average might look small, Thompson said, the Millennial average would include new employees with small accounts. How much you need to save, of course, can be debatable. The glib answer might be that most of us will never save enough, so it never hurts to save more. Fidelity has a general guideline that you’d want to have one times your salary saved for retirement by age 35, edge up to three times that salary by age 45 and five times the salary by age 55. So if you’re making $50,000 a year, you’d want $50,000 in retirement savings by age 35.
2
GIVE A SECOND LOOK TO JUST HOW MUCH MONEY YOU HAVE RIDING ON JUST ONE STOCK IN YOUR 401(K).
Plenty of people got burned badly in 2008-09 when they held too much of their own company’s stock in their 401(k) plans. On the flip side, though, some 401(k) plans got dramatically re-energized after stock in some companies shot up like a rocket in the latest bull market. Even so, it’s a terrible idea for most people to consistently leave all of their retirement money in a company stock fund, especially if they do not have a pension or other investments outside of a 401(k) plan. “Remember that a company stock fund invests in only one

stock. While this can lead to high returns if that stock does well, it is much riskier than investing in a stock mutual fund, which is diversified,” Vanguard said in a disclosure booklet on company stock funds. Yet the Vanguard booklet also notes that “diversification does not ensure a profit or protect against a loss.” The good news, though, is that many 401(k)s are no longer heavily packed with company stock. That’s due in part to changes in how company matches are handled now. Only 8% of participants in 401(k) plans had more than 80% of balances invested in company stock at year-end 2013, based on the latest report from the Employee Benefit Research Institute.
Employers are increasingly looking to add lower-cost options into 401(k) plans and shift toward more simplification, said Nathan Voris, director of Sponsor & Workplace Investment Solutions at Morningstar. “Too many choices can create inaction,” Voris said. Ford, for example, added dozens of mutual funds to its plan in 1995 but by 2002 started pulling back on some funds and simplifying. The idea was to be able to diversify without making things complicated. Of course, it’s possible that a favorite mutual fund could end up being discontinued, as well. For instance, Ford is removing the Fidelity Contrafund, one of the biggest mutual funds in the country, from its 401(k) investment options in September. David Kudla, CEO and chief investment strategist of Mainstay Capital Management in Grand Blanc, said cutting out the Contrafund is a bad move and a reflection of a bad trend that gives employees fewer choices. He said the Contrafund is a good “all-weather” fund that has outperformed the Standard & Poor’s 500 in 2015. Ford employees willing to take on more risk might opt for the Fidelity Growth Company Fund, Kudla said, instead of simply rolling that money that’s now in the Contrafund into the S&P 500 index fund. Ford noted in a statement that the company regularly monitors its investment lineup. “From time to time, changes are made to the selection funds to best suit the needs of our employees. Ford continues to partner with Fidelity through other investment mandates in our defined benefit and defined contribution plans,” Ford said in its statement. Anthony Agbay, president for the Agbay Group in Troy, Mich., said simplified 401(k)s aren’t necessarily bad. More include target-date funds, an age-based fund that offers a mix of investments that are more conservative as one nears retirement. And those options can work for some who don’t want to make their own moves. “Life gets in the way of tomorrow sometimes,” Agbay said. Tompor also reports for the Detroit Free Press.
A little planning can defuse these 4 financial threats Russ Wiles
The Arizona Republic
Americans face many financial problems — inadequate retirement savings, identity theft and often-high personal debts, to name a few. Some of those obstacles take a lot of time and effort to resolve. But various other moneyrelated problems aren’t nearly as daunting as they might seem. Many can be eliminated by people who make the effort to plan ahead. Here are some examples: uSAFEGUARDING
DEPOSITS.
In years past, you could occasionally see anxious customers lined up outside their closed financial institutions, worried about losing deposits. But with some foresight, deposit losses can be totally avoided, assuming you have enough money for this even to be an issue. With the economic rebound, hardly any banks are shutting their doors anymore. Bank failures plunged from 157 in 2010 to just four last year. Meanwhile, the FDIC’s deposit insurance fund continues to fill up with money destined to make depositors whole in the event of future failures. Standard FDIC insurance of $250,000 per depositor per bank is sufficient to cover potential losses for most customers. If you

have more than that, you can gain additional protection by splitting your money among different types of accounts or, better still, dividing it among financial institutions. The FDIC.gov website explains deposit-insurance rules. Bank failures could increase again someday. But for now, this isn’t a problem, making it a good time to check the adequacy of your deposit insurance so that you never have to worry about this peril. uAVOIDING BANK FEES.
Not all Americans have access to low-cost banking services. A lot of people are “unbanked,” doing business with payday lenders, auto-title loan companies and other high-cost outlets instead. But for the majority of Americans with at least a couple of thousand dollars to work with, it’s easy to avoid fees. For example, 61% of consumers said they pay nothing for services such as checking accounts and ATM access in a July survey of 1,000 adults by the American Bankers Association. Free checking is widely available for individuals who maintain GETTY IMAGES/ISTOCKPHOTO
a minimum balance or sign up for direct deposits. Other ways to avoid fees include signing up for alerts when balances drop to low levels, sticking to your own bank’s ATM network and agreeing to receive statements electronically.
uMINIMIZING INDIVIDUALSTOCK RISKS. The stock market
remains a volatile place, but when it comes to the risks of individual stocks tanking, you can easily sidestep that problem through diversification. The spread of mutual funds, exchange-traded funds and other packaged portfolios means you can diversify away virtually all of the dangers tied to specific companies. If one stock craters — following a poor profit report, a legal setback, a bankruptcy filing or whatever — it won’t drag down the entire portfolio with it. Americans never before have had access to more stock market investments, in this country and in once-exotic locales such as China, Eastern Europe and the Middle East. Investing in these places can
subject investors to considerable volatility. But risks tied to individual companies in these various markets, and in the U.S., can be greatly reduced. The key is to choose baskets of stocks, or funds, rather than concentrate your portfolio in a handful of individual securities. uSKIRTING ESTATE TAXES. Gov-
ernment levies on wealth upon a person’s death long have been among the most confusing and feared taxes. But the reality is that estate taxes don’t apply to most Americans. Individuals this year can exempt up to $5.43 million in assets from the federal estate tax, one of the highest thresholds of the past decade or so, and married couples can potentially double that to $10.86 million. The top levy of 40% also is fairly mild, historically speaking. Most states don’t levy an estate or inheritance tax of their own. The Tax Foundation reports 15 states and the District of Columbia impose an estate tax only, four states have an inheritance tax only, and two states have both. People living in one of the tax states do need to be mindful of their state laws. But residents still would need to have at least several hundred thousand dollars in assets, if not several million, to trigger a tax. Estate taxes thus aren’t something most Americans need to worry much about.

Kickball standouts not real popular The championship game of the 32-team Kaw Valley Kickball League is set for 9 p.m. today in oh-socharming Municipal Stadium Hobbs Park, 10th and Delaware. KVKL has been known to draw crowds of 800 spectators for its biggest game. So, Tyler Drussell, shortstop and captain of undefeated Happy Shirt, are you expecting a big crowd for the big game? “No,” answered Drussell, a Coca-Cola sales rep who lives in Olathe. Why not? “Because everyone hates us,” he answered, matterof-factly. “Everyone’s probably tired of seeing us in the championship game. You never know though. We’ll see. There will be people there who will want to see us lose.” Happy Shirt has sent 29 consecutive opponents home sad. Well, maybe not sad. Many of the players from the losing teams look plenty happy doing elbow curls before, after and even during games. Happy Shirt tries to stretch its winning streak to 30 games over two seasons vs. Red Lyon. It won’t be a record for the team in its 12th year of existence and its fourth name (founded as Papa Keno’s Pizza, the squad then was sponsored by Pita Pit, then Jayhawk Guttering.) The ultra-prepared kickballers seek their fourth KVKL championship in their eighth title game. They once had a 34-game winning streak. “We’ve gone through a lot,” Drussell said. “From the very beginning of the league they’ve wanted us out of the league.” Originally formed in 2002 as an eight-team league for Lawrence bars and restaurants, what is now Happy Shirt joined the following year. The core, explained Drussell, was a group of guys who had grown up together in Overland Park, attended Shawnee Mission West High and worked together at Papa Keno’s in Overland Park. “Nobody in the stands will be rooting for Happy Shirt,” said Mike Anderson, who is an announcer on Channel 6’s Game of the Week coverage. “Red Lyon shot-guns a beer before and after every game. Happy Shirt shows up two hours before games to practice. This is Yankees vs. the Red Sox with long hair and beards. Red Lyon doesn’t physically have beards and long hair like the Boston Red Sox, but (like the Red Sox) they’re not athletic specimens.” Plus, Red Lyon does not keep detailed statistics of how its players perform with one out, two outs, with runners on base, etc. and then form the batting order based on the mathematical probability of that spot in the order coming up in that situation. Many teams use a 10-person batting order. Happy Shirt hits 11 players. “We don’t base our lineup on putting the best Please see KEEGAN, page 5C

KANSAS UNIVERSITY HEAD COACH DAVID BEATY instructs his team during a spring practice.
WEST VIRGINIA COACH Dana Holgorsen, top, Texas A&M’s Kevin Sumlin (at Houston), center, and Rice coach David Bailiff, bottom, have faced similar situations to that of KU coach David Beaty.
Beaty begins building plan at Kansas By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com
The college head coaching careers of West Virginia’s Dana Holgorsen and firstyear Kansas University football coach David Beaty have more than a few similarities. From their rise through the ranks as coordinators to head coaches to the types of offenses they run and several aspects in between, the 44-year-old head coaches have more in common than just the conference in which they coach.
But one of the biggest connections in their coaching paths is a journey that Holgorsen successfully navigated his way through and Beaty is just starting. Like Beaty, who inherited a depleted roster at Kansas thanks to junior-college recruiting practices gone wrong, Holgorsen, too, was handed a short deck when he took over for Bill Stewart at WVU in 2011. In their first seasons, both Beaty and Holgorsen fielded rosters that were down nearly an entire recruiting class
from the 85 scholarships allowed by the NCAA — Holgorsen’s first WVU squad featured 66 scholarship players and Beaty currently has 64 — and as Beaty tries to get KU competitive with creative measures like building a strong walk-on program and finding timely transfers, Holgorsen’s Mountaineers are finally functioning with a full deck. “I know where they’re at and I know that’s exactly where we were when I first got to West Virginia,” Holgorsen told the Journal-
World at Big 12 media days in late July. “Having numbers in the 60s is not where you want it, but you just have to be patient and you gotta do a good job of filling your roster when it comes to recruiting and then you’ve gotta have retention. And I feel like we’ve had a lot of retention. Right now, going into Year 5, we’ve finally got maximum numbers.” Despite the diminished numbers, Holgorsen led the Mountaineers to a 10-3 record, Please see BEATY, page 3C
Offensive line taking shape By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com
From the time he arrived in Lawrence through the start of preseason camp, first-year Kansas University offensive line coach Zach Yenser made clear the details of his search for the five linemen who would work hard, play smart and not be afraid to battle their butts off. As it turns out, Yenser found 12. A little more than a week before the opening game of the 2015 season, Yenser provided a candid look at the Jayhawks’ offensive line depth and spoke like a coach who was proud of the prog-
ress his big boys up front made from Day 1 to now. “The five going (with the first team) right now have been pretty solid throughout camp,” Yenser said. “You can see it. Every day we trust each other a little bit more and we’re just gelling with each other. I think that’s a huge part. If you can stay consistent up front, that goes a long way.” Barring injury or something unforeseen happening between now and the Sept. 5 season opener — 11 a.m. vs. South Dakota State at Memorial Stadium — the Jayhawks’ offensive line will look like

Jets 28, Giants 18 East Rutherford, N.J. — Ryan Fitzpatrick threw two touchdown passes and Antonio Cromartie scored on a 59-yard interception return in the waning seconds of the first half. After struggling in place of the injured Geno Smith in the first two preseason games, Fitzpatrick hit 9 of 14 passes for 127 yards. He threw an 18-yard touchdown pass to Eric Decker and added a 24-yarder on a screen pass to Zac Stacy as the Jets (2-1) showed balance on offense. Rashad Jennings scored on a 1-yard run for the Giants (1-2), whose first-team offense has produced 10 points in 12 preseason possessions. Eli Manning (12 of 16 for 90 yards) was having a good half until Cromartie stepped in front of James Jones and scored with 6 seconds left in the half.

Adult soccer league gaining steam By Chris Duderstadt cduderstadt@ljworld.com
Between the buzz generated from the past Men’s and Women’s World Cups and recent success of MLS’ Sporting Kansas City, the popularity of soccer has been booming over the past decade in Lawrence and the surrounding area. The emergence of soccer’s popularity became apparent in Lawrence on the youth level in February of 2013 when the Kaw Valley Soccer Association joined Topeka’s Prodigy Soccer Club to become Sporting Kaw Valley, but the growth of the sport has not just been subject to younger generations. The Lawrence Adult Soccer League is in the middle of its 28th season, and consists of 500plus players. The LASL features different levels of recreational divisions and an open (more competitive) division for both indoor and outdoor soccer, and provides the John Young/Journal-World Photos opportunity to play yearFC SPACEBALLS, IN RED, GOES ON THE OFFENSIVE ATTACK against La Liga during their soccer match on Aug. 12 at Sports round. Pavilion Lawrence. The two teams are part of the Lawrence Aduot Soccer League’s indoor league. “A number of our players come from parents whose kids play soccer,” LASL president Andy Bentley said. “Youth soccer has taken off tremendously. The (Clinton Lake) Youth Soccer Complex is like a zoo on Saturdays and Sundays. There are just so many people down there. It’s taken off in the past 10 years.”
Like father, like son One of those parents who has taken after their kids is Chad Zimmerman, who plays for FC UNO in the LASL’s Recreation C Division. Zimmerman has been playing in the LASL for three years but had never considered lacing up a pair of soccer cleats until watching his son Simon compete in the Sporting Kaw Valley league. “I didn’t know anything about soccer,” Zimmerman said. “I just thought, ‘Wow, Sporting Park (home of Sporting KC) is awesome.’ My son was involved in Sporting Kaw Valley here, and so I thought, ‘I want to get in the adult league.’” The connection between Sporting Kaw Valley and some of the Lawrence Adult Soccer League’s players did not go unnoticed by LASL

Lake Youth Sports Complex fields for some outdoor games. The league was able to start playing games year-round this past year after adding indoor competitions in the winter at Sports Pavilion Lawrence. “There are a lot more offerings now so we can play pretty much yearround, which is great. Even when it’s hot during the summer these morning games out on the grass is nice,” Christopher Santee, a player and manager for La Liga, said. “Now with the Sports Pavilion, we can play indoor. We used to drive to Kansas City or Topeka for indoor, and now we’ve got yearround offerings.”

board member Brandon Devlin. Devlin, who has coached his kids in Sporting Kaw Valley and plays in the LASL, has helped organize a partnership between the two leagues that has been beneficial to all. “Sometimes Kaw Valley will come to us and say, ‘Hey, we’ve got this many players playing in the game at a certain age group and we don’t have enough coaches or parent volunteers to help out. Would you guys be able to talk to your players and see if you can
Referee relishes LASL’s growth There are a variety of ways that LASL players have volunteered to help out Sporting Kaw Valley, one of which is refereeing. After playing and serving in a number of
different roles on LASL’s advisory board since 1988, Gerry de Boer has remained in the league as a referee. “I played probably for about 15 years until I got too busy with other things,” de Boer said. “I was still on the board and I picked up refereeing early on, too, but I didn’t want to be a referee and a player at the same time. I think that’s a conflict of interest.” De Boer, who served as the league president as one of his roles on the board, said there were
some struggles the LASL had to persevere through in its first few years, but he’s impressed by the league’s current state. “We started out at different fields — Shenk (Sports Complex), the KU fields; we played on the 4-H fairgrounds. There were horses right next to the fields,” de Boer said with a laugh. “They were scared sometimes.” The LASL reached an agreement with USD 497 in the mid-2000s to play at Lawrence High and Free State’s turf fields, and also uses the Clinton
Family atmosphere While the LASL is attracting players from Kansas City and Topeka, it is also bringing in diehard soccer fans of many different nationalities. Zimmerman’s FC Uno team got its name because of the diversity among the players. “We named it that last year because we realized that we had people from like seven different countries — a lot from Latin American countries, and then we just started to add (players) from European countries,” Zimmerman said. The camaraderie of each team is also one of Santee’s favorite aspects of the LASL, as his team has started to bond off the field as well. “Each team is a little community,” Santee said. “We have barbecues and stuff.” The LASL is about to kick off its fall season on Sept. 13. The final date to register for the Open (more competitive) division or the recreation groups is Sept. 4. Zimmerman assured that there is a level of play for anyone who is interested in joining the league. “The one thing I don’t think people understand is that you can walk on the field with absolutely zero experience, and there are certain guys who will take care of you and make sure you know how to touch the ball right,” Zimmerman said. For more information or to register to play in the LASL, go to lasl.org
said. “You gotta fill your recruiting classes and two, three years down the road you’re gonna get it where you want it. I didn’t know (the situation when I got there). It’s not ideal, but those are the cards you’re dealt and that’s what you’ve gotta do.” Beaty understands this. And he already has laid out a clear plan for how to elevate KU’s scholarship numbers. But conversations with Holgorsen, Rice coach David Bailiff and Texas A&M coach Kevin Sumlin, who dealt with a similar scenario during his first year at Houston, helped Beaty
believe crawling out of such a hole was possible. The situation at Rice, where Beaty coached wide receivers from 200607 and served as offensive coordinator in 2010, was so dire that Bailiff was forced to play portions of spring practices 11 on 10. The number of scholarship players he inherited was in the 50s and because of a lack of depth at defensive end, the Rice offensive coaches asked one of their tackles to step to air and block nobody during certain drills and team scrimmages. The Owls, who have averaged six wins per season and made three
bowl appearances since Bailiff took over, had a tougher mountain to climb than most because of Rice’s strict academic admission standards and hefty price tag of tuition. But patience and that retention that Holgorsen talked about helped Bailiff rebuild, and Rice has been bowl eligible the past three seasons and enters the 2015 season coming off of back-toback bowl appearances, including a victory in the 2014 Hawaii Bowl. Though short-handed, things were a little easier for Sumlin at Houston, which more closely resembles the situation
Beaty faces at KU. Beaty’s former boss used the walk-on approach and the benefit of small senior classes to get the numbers up more quickly. Before making the jump to A&M and the SEC in 2012, Sumlin ripped off a 35-17 record in four seasons at Houston and led the Cougars to three bowl games and a 12-1 season in 2011. Beaty and the Jayhawks might not be anywhere near able to entertain such thoughts at this point. But given the firstyear KU coach’s close connection to three successful head coaches who have been in his shoes
and lived to tell about it, Beaty believes there is hope in Lawrence. “(It helps to) have small senior classes, which is gonna take a few years,” Beaty said earlier this summer. “It’s gonna be another 25 (seniors) next year and then after that it’s gonna start scaling back to around 17 or 18 (seniors per class), which allows you to still sign 25 (incoming players) and now all of a sudden you get eight more and now you move it up. And then the next year you get eight more. And then you get up to 85. It’ll probably take us a couple of years to get there. We’ll see.”
nearly as impressive as the first in terms of buyin, effort and improvement, features just one player with Div. I game experience. Sophomore center Joe Gibson played in eight games and started seven a season ago. After that, the guys Yenser refers to as the “young pups” — freshman tackles Clyde McCaulley III and walk-on Larry Hughes — are new to the college game altogether, and guards Jayson Rhodes and Jacob Bragg have experience in the program but not on Saturdays.
Yenser said that juco transfer Will Smith, a guard, and walk-on freshman Mesa Ribordy, a tackle from Louisburg High, made up the 11th and 12th players on the O-Line depth chart and added that all 12 received enough work during the offseason to develop at a solid rate. “Throughout camp, we had an A field and a B field and guys were getting 40 reps a day whether you were a true freshman or a fifth-year senior,” Yenser said. “It’s helped out tremendously, especially those two young tackles.” Although he discov-
ered the spots where his guys fit best, Yenser never has operated as a coach who let stereotypes dictate his depth chart. “I reiterate to my guys all the time, ‘You’re football players. You’re not just a left guard, you’re not just a right tackle, you are a football player and you will play where you are needed,” he said. “If you have a problem with that, then you’re in the wrong room.’ You’re considered a selfish guy and we are unselfish men.” The only requirement Yenser had for any of his positions — other than
program staples solid work ethic, good attitude and hunger to improve — was at tackle, where he believes there’s one physical trait that trumps all. “Really, you’re just looking for length,” he said. “At tackle, you want the guys to be, not necessary taller, just longer. Usually taller guys have longer arms, but that’s all you’re looking for at tackle. Jordan and Larry are both playing really well for us on the edge and getting better every day.” Inside, Yenser said he loved the experience that Haughton and Peters
bring and has been impressed by the way Banks changed his body and mind to earn his spot. “There’s one thing you can’t coach,” Yenser said. “And that’s experience. There’s no doubt about it.” By this time next year, all but three of these 12 figure to be returning veterans with solid experience. But it’s a green bunch today and how well they perform will be just as crucial to the new Air Raid offense’s success as anything junior quarterback Montell Cozart or offensive coordinator Rob Likens does in their roles.
get us some coaches?’” Devlin said. “We’ll go out and we’ll offer reduced league fees or even offering to pay the league fees for a player if that person is willing to go spend a couple of times a week with these kids from Kaw Valley.”

Moustakas powers Royals past Rays St. Petersburg, Fla. (ap) — Mike Moustakas and the Kansas City Royals both kept up their strong play. Moustakas had three hits and three RBIs, Kendrys Morales came through with another big two-out hit, and the AL Central-leading Royals beat the Tampa Bay Rays, 6-3, on Saturday night. Moustakas has driven in 15 runs over his last 10 games. The Royals have won 17 of 22 to go a season-high 31 games over .500 (80-49). “You wouldn’t know that we’re 31 games over .500,” Moustakas said. “We come in expecting to win every night. We come in to grind it out, play the game hard. That’s what we’re doing, and it translates on the field.” Morales had an RBI single and Moustakas a run-scoring double off Jake Odorizzi (6-7) as the Royals grabbed a 4-3 lead in the fifth. Morales leads the majors with 47 RBIs with two outs this season, breaking the team record of 46 set by Joe Randa in 2000. Lorenzo Cain had a run-scoring single in the sixth, and Moustakas added an RBI single in the ninth. “He’s using the whole field, which is impressive,” Royals manager Ned Yost said of Moustakas. “Really swinging the bat well.” Kris Medlen (3-0) allowed three runs and four hits over 51⁄3 innings in his second start and ninth appearance since returning from elbow ligament

Wade Davis, the third Royals reliever, recorded the last three outs for his 13th save. Kevin Kiermaier homered for the Rays, who have lost 10 of 15. Tampa Bay has dropped all six games against Kansas City this season and 20 of 25 over the last four seasons. “They look like a play-
off team and I think our guys know that,” Rays manager Kevin Cash said. “We’re getting a firsthand look at a really good team.” Tampa Bay took a 3-2 lead in the fourth when Asdrubal Cabrera had a run-scoring single and Kiermaier hit a two-run homer. Eric Hosmer, mired an 0-for-13 slide, and
Moustakas both had RBI doubles during the top of the fourth to put the Royals ahead 2-0. Odorizzi allowed four runs and seven hits in 42⁄3 innings. He is winless in six starts, which includes a stretch of five no-decisions where the righthander pitched at least six innings in each game. Rays catcher Rene Rivera got cut on the lower

Wayne Selden Jr., is shown on the cover with Nebraska’s Shavon Shields, Missouri’s Wes Clark, Creighton’s James Milliken and Kansas State’s Justin Edwards. l No KU players on first team: Blue Ribbon Yearbook has announced its five-player preseason AllAmerica first team. Players are: Kentucky freshman Skal Labissiere, LSU freshman Ben Simmons, Virginia senior Malcolm Brogdon, Iowa State senior Georges Niang and Providence junior Kris Dunn. l Azubuike update: Nigeria native Udoka Azubuike, a 6-11, 260-pound senior forward from Potter’s House in Jacksonville, Florida, who is ranked No. 26 nationally in the Class of 2016 by Rivals.com, has yet to
announce dates for campus visits. Florida State, KU and Duke are said to be leading Florida, Kentucky, Georgetown, Auburn, Cal, Maryland, Texas, North Carolina State and Wake Forest. “Azubuike has great size, length, athletic ability, mobility and coordination. He runs the floor extremely well. He is an above the rim finisher with power when he receives drop off passes created by dribble penetration,” ESPN.com writes of Azubuike, who has a 7-5 wingspan. “He also can get to the basket with one or two dribble clear paths. He area rebounds at rim level, blocks shots and simply makes opponents think twice about challenging him in the lane. Azubuike must continue to learn the game and skillwise work on his hands, foot work and develop a move and counter move with his back to the basket.” ESPN adds: “Azubuike
is a true center that has all the physical gifts to be a special player. His game will go to an even more elite level once he is able to add some skill and feel development. Azubuike has off the charts upside.” Azubuike is known as one of the most powerful players in the Class of 2016. He told the Louisville Courier-Journal he actually broke a rim once, snapping the metal cylinder into two pieces. “Everybody was like, ‘Wow, it’s amazing,’” he tells the Courier-Journal. “I’m a power player. Sometimes when I get really mad in games, I really pull down the rim. I just try to prove that I’m unstoppable.” “He’s just a monster,” Wendell Carter, Azubuike’s 6-foot-10 Georgia Stars AAU teammate tells the Courier-Journal. “If I catch it in the high post and he’s asking for it, I’m going to give it to him, because I know that’s two
points or they’re going to foul him. He’s a beast, man. That’s all I can say.” For Azubuike highlights go to the Web address http://bit. ly/1EpV2E4 l Maui tournament impressive: ESPN Hall of Fame announcer Dick Vitale recently commented on the Maui Invitational, set for Nov. 23-25, in Lahaina. “My friends, this field is loaded. I love it when quality matchups take place early in the season, giving an indication of the teams’ strengths and weaknesses,” Vitale writes at ESPN.com. “The first round features Kansas against Chaminade, UCLA taking on UNLV, St. John’s facing Vanderbilt and Indiana matching up against Wake Forest. These eight have combined for 20 national championships and 47 Final Four appearances. “This tournament has
so many interesting facets to it. Four of the winningest programs in Division I college basketball history are in this field (No. 2 Kansas, 2,153 wins; No. 7 UCLA, 1,803 wins; No. 8 St. John’s, 1,795 wins; No. 10 Indiana, 1,756 wins.) You have great former players patrolling the sidelines in Danny Manning (Wake Forest), Steve Alford (UCLA) and Chris Mullin (St. John’s). Imagine if they took the court. “There is a lot of talent when looking at these squads. Guys Like Perry Ellis, Wayne Selden Jr. and Frank Mason III of Kansas; Yogi Ferrell and a healthy James Blackmon Jr. of Indiana; Bryce Alford of UCLA; Damian Jones of Vanderbilt; and Devin Thomas of Wake Forest will shine. “You could see Alford face his alma mater in Indiana and Manning face his alma mater in Kansas.

sons, intensity has been picking up in the league and there have been better teams.” Anderson, not only an announcer in the league but a player for Channel 6, assembled this season one of the better teams, one flush with former Div. I athletes. Anderson believes his team would have been playing tonight for the title in a rematch of what he said was “the greatest game of the week ever, a 12-inning classic,” between Happy Shirt and Channel 6. Instead, Channel 6 was disqualified from the playoffs after winning its first two games by a landslide on a rulesviolation discovered before the third round of the playoffs. Rules state that a team must use
three females and if only two show up for a game that team must play one player short in the field and have an automatic out in the lineup. Anderson inquired of the board of directors what would happen if it happened a third week in a row and after the board looked at the lineup from the first two games, found that the rules state a team must use a 10-person batting order, including the automatic out, with both females in it. Channel 6 always uses an 11-person lineup and played with 10 hitters plus the automatic out. “I didn’t know that rule,” Anderson said. “Nobody from the other team knew the rule and the umpires didn’t know the rule. The punishment did not fit the ideology of the league.
It didn’t fit the crime and it didn’t fit the spirit of the league. This is the KVKL, not the NCAA.” Anderson said he learned of the disqualification in an email from the league that he said had no individual’s name attached to it. If, Anderson said, he goes overboard on criticizing the way that was handled, he said he’ll edit his comments before the title game, a rematch of last year’s final, when it is aired on Channel 6. “I was 0 for 4 and had the bases loaded twice for me last year,” Neverve said of the 2014 championship game. Neverve understands why Happy Shirt is favored, but also has supreme confidence in Nick Lerner, Jarrod
Lyons, Brandon Massey, Todd Foster and the rest of his teammates. “We’re going to pretty much have to play a flawless game offensively and defensively,” Neverve said. “But the last week of the regular season and the last month in the playoffs we’ve played really well.” Anderson predicted a rout in favor of Happy Shirt. Unlike Drussell, I’m predicting a big turnout. If you’ve never seen kickball at Hobbs Park, rank it high on your bucket list with the intention of crossing it off before turning out the lights tonight. Here’s why: When the game ends tonight this party is over for another year and this party also is on the brink of becoming too intense, too political to sustain its appeal.

ou can’t go home again. That’s what they say, anyway. Thomas Wolfe famously coined the phrase in his 1940 book of the same name, which told the tale of a fledgling writer who, after writing a successful novel about his family and hometown, is later driven out of the community by its resentful residents. It’s not exactly what Michael McCaffrey found upon his return to Lawrence last year, when spurred by the death of his mother in 2012, the thirty-something artist decided to leave Minneapolis to move back in with his elderly father. Turns out, McCaffrey could go back home again. But to a home he didn’t quite recognize as his own. Lawrence was the same old Lawrence, but also weirdly unfamiliar, McCaffrey recalls. The bars he used to frequent in his college years felt different somehow, too. And, exactly 10 years after graduating with his bachelor’s degree in painting from Kansas University, McCaffrey was once again back at his alma mater, this time as an artistin-residence at the school’s department of visual arts, where he’s now teaching classes alongside some of the same professors he knew as a student more than a decade ago. Most noticeably, his role at home — and as a son — has changed. “When I last lived here, I was 25 or 26, and he was very much like Please see HOME, page 3D

Segel stars in acclaimed DFW biopic By Colin Covert Star Tribune (Minneapolis)
R
oad trips are a fairly routine framework for movies, often with a focus on two traveling companions. Never have I seen one that moved me so close to tears as “The End of the Tour,” which transforms that common clay into a work of beauty. The film, now playing at Liberty Hall through Thursday, is an inspired look into the effects of artistry and success and fame. It is a showcase for two young stars moving beyond their boyish charms. It is a story based on real events that lifts five days of talk between two writers into a touching examination of troubled humanity. Simply put, it is a masterwork. The story begins with a 2008 news report that legendary author David Foster Wallace committed suicide. He was 46 and left a wife, a vast literary legacy and a reputation as one of the most innovative writers of the past quarter-century. The death notice has a painful impact on David Lipsky, a Rolling Stone reporter who interviewed Wallace for those five days in 1996 as the writer’s writer rock star promoted his breakthrough best-seller “Infinite Jest.” Revisiting the trove of cassette-recorded conversations from that assignment, Lipsky recalls their long, deep discussions of depression, women and fame. The film is a dramatization of his memoir, “Although of Course You End Up Becoming Yourself.” What begins as a celebrity interview between a newly famous author and a somewhat younger, somewhat jealous reporter deepens. Wallace (in an extraordinary performance by Jason Segel) is wary about the attention, cautious about what he reveals, friendly but reserved. Lipsky (Jesse Eisenberg, who winningly curls his brow into a question mark) sees him as a scoop. There are delicious moments between Segel and Eisenberg, each in a terrific characterization. Wallace, teaching a semester in Indiana, welcomes Lipsky to his reclusive snowbound rental home, and it’s clear early on that both are on thin ice. Too tall for his own comfort, Wallace slumps his posture to pass for an average guy. He folds his sometimes tense hands inside crossed arms. He wears his signature Southern bandanna in midwinter because removing it might look like an affectation. Vulnerably admitting to his loneliness, Wallace still keeps his visitor at a protective arm’s length. And yet there is a warm connection between the pair. Lipsky has romanticized the depressed genius. Wallace enjoys coming in from the cold. They make good company, though neither is ever quite off duty, and both know that journalism involves a betrayal of trust. Wallace withholds sensitive personal information while answering Lipsky’s probing questions about his alcohol abuse, suicidal tendencies and rumored heroin use. His childlike cravings for junk food and late-night TV are the only addictions we see, but we always sense a hint of more. Still, they bond a bit as they travel to the Twin

Lipsky has romanticized the depressed genius. Wallace enjoys coming in from the cold. They make good company, though neither is ever quite off duty, and both know that journalism involves a betrayal of trust.” Cities for the end of Wallace’s “Infinite Jest” book tour. It’s there that the film introduces several female characters who expand the story beyond a two-man buddy movie. We get nice passages with Joan Cusack stealing her scenes as a hospitable Minnesota chauffeur for visiting bigwigs, and Mamie Gummer and Mickey Sumner as college friends of Wallace. Wallace accuses the flirtatious Lipsky of trying to rob him of a warm old relationship, bringing their own connection to a painful, soul-baring turn. There is a breathtaking roster of talent assembled here. This is director James Ponsoldt’s fourth feature film, following his fine, little viewed “Off the Black,” “Smashed” and “The Spectacular Now.” He avoids any trace of showiness, letting the narrative tell itself. The sweetly touching score by Danny Elfman is ideal for this low-key tale. The screenplay, by Pulitzerwinning playwright Donald Margulies, is a superb balance of fact and drama, a journey that never depends too much on plot. At one point, when Lipsky’s and Wallace’s superficial chat implies that they are approaching friendship, Wallace says “This is nice. This is not real.” The film, showing us two men encountering each other in a cold and lonely world, feels real, and far deeper than merely nice. The cast never reaches for effects. Neither does the film. It’s all right there. “The End of the Tour” is rated R for language, including some sexual references.

Decades later, punk legends X keep it political By Fally Afani Special to the Journal-World
Any crash course in the history of punk rock will land you right in the middle of an X album, two of which were ranked by Rolling Stone among the top 500 albums of all time. The legendary band helped define the punk rock sound in the ’70s and ’80s, and left a profound impact on generations of punk rockers. Now, some of those punk rockers across Lawrence and Kansas City are jittering with excitement over the band’s upcoming Bottleneck show on Sept. 1, an event that’s sure to conjure up memories of the band’s infamous appearance in “The Decline of Western Civilization” as fans eagerly thrash along. It’s impressive that after nearly 40 years, seven studio albums and two reunions, the band still tours relentlessly — but this tour isn’t happening without its trials. Fans at the Lawrence show will still bask in John Doe’s impressive guitar skills and sing along with Exene Cervenka, the dark-haired vocalist and one of punk’s leading ladies. But missing from the Bottleneck stage will be Billy Zoom, who revealed his battle with cancer just before the band’s latest tour. Cervenka says canceling was not an option. “You don’t just cancel $5,000 worth of flights, $10,000 worth of hotels, leave clubs hanging at the last second. You have to go,” says Cervenka, who noted that fans have welcomed the band with open arms even when they’re down one famous member. “We’ve maintained our end of the deal, and they’ve maintained their end of the deal. Our fans aren’t going anywhere, and that’s really reassuring now more than ever.

Dad, you know,” recalls the younger McCaffrey, who for the past year and a half has chronicled his father’s daily interactions inside his aging west Lawrence home in an ongoing series of paintings. “And now that I’ve come back, I’m 36, and sometimes he feels more like Grandpa, if that makes sense.” His father, also named Michael, was getting older. And the way Michael Sr. moved about inside the two-story, Reaganera suburban home Michael Jr. grew up in, he noticed, was undergoing a gradual shift. For one thing, the gray house with wooden siding was getting older, too. And because of his father’s advanced age, Michael Jr. speculates, certain areas of the house were prioritized over others. Michael Jr. remembers returning home to find peeling wallpaper and rotting carpet in the house’s upstairs bedrooms, which he’s since removed. But he also remembers being struck by the level of care and attention given to his father’s motorcycle shop in the garage, or the “forest-like” garden in the backyard. Both are recurring subjects in Michael Jr.’s paintings. “I’m not good at that mechanical stuff,” he admits, sitting across from his father on the porch of his Oread-neighborhood studio. “I see it as colors and shapes, and I’m really attracted to the textures. Thinking of him

Created in a vacuum A lot of X’s fans are also musicians, but Cervenka says there’s no comparison between today’s DIY punk scene and the one her band helped launch. “It’s a completely different thing, and they should be proud of that,” she says. “It’s nothing like what we did — it’s completely different times, different goals, economic situation. “You can’t have what we had because there were no cameras except for professional cameras. There was no television, there were no cellphones, there was no cable TV, it was just starting. So we were created in a vacuum, so our scene grew because of that. We were all connected together in a way that was word of mouth, everybody sticking together to keep it going.” Cervenka is quick to point out that although the punk scene has changed, the industry has not, and artists, she believes, are jilted more than ever. “You have a bunch of business people who rip off young people, get them to sign things they shouldn’t sign, make way more than the artists will ever make,” she says. “They don’t care about them at all — all they care about really is making tons of money. You have six corporations controlling all the media in America ... and it’s a super corrupt system. The entertainment

in that space, there’s a real emotional connection for me.” Michael Sr., his son proudly points out, is good at “that mechanical stuff.” He still visits the garage every day, but maybe for 20-minute increments instead of hours. “Things used to really get done out there,” but these days, the 76-year-old “just pokes around,” his son says. Catching a side-eyed glare from his father, Michael Jr. backpedals a bit. “It’s not a bad thing,” he tells Michael Sr. “You’re still doing stuff, but I do feel there is a very gradual slowing down of things.” Michael Sr., who served in the Army and later worked as a detective with the Lawrence Police Department, likes routine. He’s also spry, mischievous and full of energy — he feels “about 20 years old,” he says, aside from the occasional crick in his back — but he follows the same rigid pattern, day in and day out, that you might expect from an old soldier. Michael Sr. begins every morning by taking the dog for a swim — “You ought to see her in a bikini,” he jokingly says of Huney, his Labrador retriever mix. “She’s the Esther Williams of Clinton Lake.” Then, in a throwback to his police days, Michael Sr. goes “on patrol,” which basically consists of him driving around with a cup of coffee in hand, Michael Jr. says. Then he’ll probably eat some lunch, take a nap, meet with friends for coffee, come home and tool
around on the computer. Unless, of course, Michael Jr. comes over for dinner. On most evenings, the younger McCaffrey likes to cook a big meal for the two of them, which they’ll eat contentedly over an episode of “Anthony Bourdain: No Reservations.” Michael Sr. is proud of his son. He still holds onto a yellowed, dog-eared newspaper clipping from 2004 about one of Michael Jr.’s early gallery shows. The Journal-World article and accompanying photo depict a young artist who at the time was still painting out of a makeshift studio at his dad’s old house. He couldn’t afford models to pose for hours at a time, the 2004 article reads, so he convinced family members — his mother, grandmother, girlfriend — to take on the job. Things aren’t all that different these days, Michael Jr. admits. After all, he’s still using loved ones — his dad in particular — as subjects. Michael Sr., despite the occasional protestation when his “bossy” son bans reading material from sessions, says he’s happy to do it. His opinion on the portraits? “I think they’re pretty miserable. They don’t reflect my true good looks at all,” he says wryly. “They’re distorted and grotesque.” Michael Sr. pauses for a moment, his face breaking into a sly smile, and offers his son a truly genuine compliment. “I think they’re great,” he says. “I really do.”

Books Hungry for more ‘Hannibal’? Lawrence Journal-World l LJWorld.com l Sunday, August 30, 2015

Library offerings can sate your cravings for steak, soundtracks and psychos

et’s get real: “Hannibal” is one of the most compelling, evocative and artistic series on network television. Bryan Fuller continues to dazzle and amaze audiences in his breathtakingly beautiful and haunting portrayal of the Hannibal mythos. Although it may stylistically appear like a pretentious art film, “Hannibal” excels in its gripping storytelling and complex characters. Every character is shrouded in mystery that slowly becomes uncovered as each episode progresses. This is one of the most underrated shows on television, and it is a must watch. NBC’s recent announcement about the cancelation of Hannibal has been a difficult pill to swallow. Although there is some hope that it will be picked up by another network for U.S. distribution, it is time that we began to mourn the loss of this visual masterpiece. Nothing will fill the void left by the cancelation of “Hannibal,” but these titles should help out with the grieving process.
‘Red Dragon’ by Thomas Harris If you have yet to check out the books upon which “Hannibal” is based, then a great place to start is with “Red Dragon” by Thomas Harris. The second half of Season 3 brings the story of the troubled, tortured killer Francis Dolarhyde to life, and it will be great to

Season 3. If you are looking for another suspenseful, action-packed story that heavily references Dante’s conceptualization of the afterlife, then “Inferno” should satisfy your craving for more.

‘Child of God’ by Cormac McCarthy If you have ever wanted to delve into the chilling mind of a psychopath, then “Child of God” is a great place to start. Set in the 1960s, it masterfully weaves the tale of Lester Ballard who falls into a life of murder and wickedness after secluding himself from society. Like “Hannibal,” “Child of God” is full of disturbing scenes, maintains a bleak atmosphere, and focuses on the monstrous side of humanity in a world infected by indignity. It is a great literary bandage to fix the wound left by the cancelation of “Hannibal.”

‘Meat: Everything You Need to Know’ by Pat Lafrieda If there is one thing “Hannibal” is known for, it is his worldly and carefully crafted culinary adventures.
Although you do not want to be on his menu, this book is an essential guide for any carnivore with a passion for cooking — no human meat required.

‘A State of Wonder: The Complete Goldberg Variations 1955 & 1981’ In addition to the haunting and goosebump inducing score composed by Brian Reitzell, the aria from Bach’s “Goldberg Variations” is a track that permeates throughout the series and manifests as a thematic representation of the relationship between Will and Hannibal.

5 questions with Eric McHenry, Kansas Poet Laureate
L
anguage lovers of all ages were in for a treat on Thursday night: Eric McHenry, the current Kansas Poet Laureate, gave a special talk at the Lawrence Public Library. Along with being the author of the award-winning poetry collection “Potscrubber Lullabies” and the gleeful and heartwarming children’s picture book “Mommy, Daddy, Evan, Sage,” McHenry is also a professor of creative writing at Washburn University, where I had the privilege of having him as both an adviser and instructor. I quickly found him to be one of the warmest, most intelligent people I’ve ever met. His love for poetry and language is sincere, and his passion and enthusiasm for sharing that love with others is genuine and inspiring. Always helpful and eager to share his seemingly encyclopedic knowledge of all things poetry, McHenry agreed to answer a few questions: AH: Tell me a little bit about your background and the role poetry has played in your upbringing and education. EM: Auden called poetry “memorable speech,” and I think that my interest in poetry is a natural outgrowth of a lifelong interest in talking. There’s such pleasure to be taken in the creative arrangement of words. I grew up with Dr. Seuss and Mother Goose and a mother who recited Robert Burns and Robert Frost, and so poetry has been a presence in my life
out “New and Selected Poems: 1980-1999” for a broad sampling and “Melange Block” for some stellar recent work. I resent Wyatt Townley because she has done something I’ve been trying to do since college: she has written a perfect villanelle. It’s called “The Fountain,” and it’s in her exquisite 2011 collection “The Afterlives of Trees.”

ADAM HUMMELL since long before I’d given any thought to what a poet might be. I had encouraging creative-writing teachers in high school and college who did things like give my poems to the school literary journal without my permission. I think the moment I decided that I really wanted to be a poet was probably the moment I realized what kind of poetry I wanted to write, which was the first time I read “Love Songs in Age” by Philip Larkin.

KANSAS CITY CONNECTION
By Lucas Wetzel
Contributed Photo
The KC Irish Fest is coming to downtown Kansas City, Mo., this Friday through Sunday.
French and Irish mix
S
ince June 2012, the French and American flags have hung in tandem outside the downtown Kansas City restaurant at 1006 Walnut St. But the restaurant that started out as Aixois Brasserie, opened by the owners of the popular Aixois Bistro at 251 E. 55th St., rebranded last fall after chef Jason Craine purchased the restaurant from the original owners and renamed it Charisse. Charisse (named after Craine’s wife) still serves many of the dishes that have made Aixois synonymous with French-American cuisine in Kansas City, from a hearty croque monsieur and quiche lorraine to steak fries and fresh salads. But with additions like a delicious prime rib sandwich (thin-sliced rib-eye served on a baguette with smoked gouda, grilled onion and jalapenos) and golden trout, Charisse’s cuisine and atmosphere seem to have a new zip. An experienced bar staff and an innovative list of cocktails and desserts make this a classy happy hour alternative to the nearby Power & Light District. Charisse is open for lunch Monday through Friday from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. and from dinner Monday through Friday from 5 p.m. to close, and on Saturday from 5:30 p.m. to close. Happy hour runs from 4 to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday and all night at the bar. View a full menu at charissekc.com.
Irish Fest For the thousands of people expected to hit Crown Center this weekend, the cuisine and celebration will be more Celtic in flavor, as the annual KC Irish
Fest returns from Friday through Sunday. Several dozen musical and dance acts will perform on seven stages throughout the weekend, ranging from usual suspects The Elders and Eddie Delahunt to Flannigan’s Right Hook, Gaelic Storm and St. Andrew’s Pipe and Drum. Children will enjoy the Irish dance showcases, a contest to construct the Fairy Village, and a concert by children’s performer Jim Cosgrove (Sunday at 6:15 p.m.). And it wouldn’t be Irish Fest without beer, whiskey tastings and hearty food served by local eateries like O’Dowd’s Little Dublin, Stroud’s and The Dubliner. Tickets are cheaper online, where a weekend pass runs $30 and a single day ticket is $12 (as opposed to $18 on site). Visit kcirishfest. com to purchase or for a full schedule of events.
First Fridays Sept. 4 is also a First Friday weekend in Kansas City, meaning the dozens of galleries in the Crossroads neighborhood will debut new group and solo shows. Worth seeing is “Onward: Kansas City Art Institute Foundation 50th Anniversary Exhibition” at the Leedy-Voulkos Art Center (2012 Baltimore), which contains work by 60 different artists who taught in the college’s foundation program between 1965 and the present. Bring your appetite to First Fridays as well, as the Kansas City Star parking lot at 18th and McGee will be the outpost for some of the area’s finest food trucks, including Bochi Wings, Crave of KC and Sweet Tooth Cupcake Cruiser.
